mittee of three was appointed, towit,
Messrs: Joseph L. Moore, C. H.

assist in all ways possible, the gen

named at the mass-meeting to direct
the campaign in the interest of the
"tide-water fisheries" bill; and these
gentlemen, at the instance of the body
that appointed them, will visit, in turn

shall transpire here, an(f endeavor to
secure from them, the handsome con

popular score. If this program shall
be carried out, it will be a splendid
showing for the men who stand for
organized labor here and a fine ex
ample to those citizens who will aid
the movement from other and less
direct impulses. The three commit

UNGUARDED WOOD SAWS.
A Veteran Citizen Complains of Their
v Use in Public Places.
The following; communication was
handed in this office yesterday by its
author, who insists that if there, is
not an ordinance covering the use of
the unguarded power saws on the
public thoroughfares there should be,
for the common good, including that
of the operator:
"Astoria, April 14, 1908.
"To th Editor:
"I wish to call your attention the
reckless, careless manner that the
wood saw is operated on Eighth
street wharf; .the saw is not covered
to make it safe; it is liable to cut some
man's arm off; or cut some one' fife
out; and the county will have a 1km
pital bill to pay. If there is no law
there ought to be to make the o water
put a guard over it to protect aay-
one from getting cut, etc., etc. i'lease
look this matter up.

ways behind the lighter hued peoples
in fine, civilization because the phys

exclusion of the mental. Coarse ted
hair indicates marvelous physical co-
