A FISHERMAN'S IDEA.
Communication Filed for Publication
in These Columns by a Party
in Interest
The following communication was
filed in this office yesterday with the
request that it be published, a favor
irrantcd without specihc comment.
"In commenting on the mass meet
ing of the citizens of Astoria for the
,,rnre of fish legislation tnrougn
the initiative and referendum, there is
no doubt but it is a move in the right
direction. But, after hearing tne rea
son whv most of the cannerymen did
not donate to the fund before, was
that they had come to the conclusion
that Mr. Rosenberg did not have tne
matter as much at heart as one who
is engaged in fishing for salmon. r As
it looks much as if this movement
was so late as to endanger the wel
fare of this industry and therefore the
packers were opposed to putting up
money in the hands of Mr. KosenDerg,
who has shown by the selection 01
his committee geographically, and
their consoicuousness at the mass
meeting by the absence of the people
on the committee outside of Astoria,
that the only interest taken in the
matter was by the people of Astoria
whom he had to call to the rescue,
as we heard no report from the presi
dent or any officers of the salmon as-
ociation. So at this time we do not
care to' jeopardize the fighting repu
tation of 'Bob Evans,' until we see
the outcome of this battle, which in
our estimation would have been an
easy one if it had been properly
managed.

NEW TO-DAY
There is a growing sentiment
among the substantial commercial in
terests of the City of Portland that
at least one member of the State
Board of Railroad Commissioners, in
order ho obtain the best results,
should be a man with practical rail- ( fi
road experience. In the pending
eamnaien such a man is found in the
person of W. H. Hurlburt, who' for j
thn met 35 venrs has Deen engage" ,

thus gained must be of inestimable
value to the board. Mr. Hurlburt is
not now in any way either directly
or indirectly interested in, or con
nected with, any railroad company
and is therefore in a position to ren
der the state the best possible service
