The old man looked at the pencil pusher in dubious fashion for a moment, as if he doubted the right of the inquirer to inquire, and then see ing the note-book and pencil, un bosomed himself as follows: "Well, sonny, it's no marvel to me; the sea son hain't got nothin' to do wi' it, nor the weather, either; it's just old fash ioned salmon-gumption, that's wat it is; they're a hanging off the bar till the people of this State put th' kibosh on them durncd fish-wheels and they have a clear road to the spawnin' grounds wi' some sort o' likelihood of there gcttin' there and back again and a doin' of their nateral duty by the trade and us fishers. They're a knowin' lot, these salmon, and don't you fcrgit it, my lad!". A Fisheries Conference On Monday evening there is to be a meeting of the officers of the Sein ers' & Trappers' Union, of this city, with the executive committee of the Fishermen's Union, of Astoria, and the Astoria Protective Committee of Fifteen, at the Chamber of Commerce rooms, to confer on the future atti tude of the Seiners and Trappers, in regard to the fishery bill No. 332, known as the "Gill-nctters' bill, and for which all Astoria is fighting in order to preserve the salmon industry of the Columbia; the main object of the meeting being to clear away all ambiguities now existant, as to the alleged threat of the Fishermen's Union to attack the seiners and trap pers after the fish-wheels have been properly disposed of by the people at the polls on June 1st. The S. & T. people desire to know that no such action is to be taken as against them, and so knowing, will throw their strength, financial aid, and activities to the success of that bill. The meet ing is certain to be full of interest to all present, as well as to all others on the outside, who look for a complete and harmonious issue of the conference.
