The Oregon Board of Fish Com missioners is held to hare acted un wisely in granting the claim of the Willamette and Clackamas rivers fish ermen for its recession from the re cent order made by it extending the closed season on those streams and their tributaries, from April 15th to May 1st, and including the Lewis & Clark and Young's rivers. Fishermen here declare that the board was not only unwise in conceding anything they had already ordained under the law as applied to their work and jur isdiction ,on account of the weaken ing of its general authority; but that in doing so they permit the salmon, on its way to the spawning grounds for breeding purposes, to be met, caught and killed by the fishermen up there, while down here they are per mitted to go by the fish centers safe and well speeded to their up-river nooks. A piece of farfetched discrim ination that hurts the fish as well as the fishermen, denies the privilege that others are granted, and in a sea son when all rules should be mani festly and squarely applied. That the Willamette and Clackamas operators have been in the habit of doing a thriving business during that particular period heretofore is n,o rea son why they should be exempted, in whole or in part, from the general restrictions laid down, to expressly save the fish from molestation at this time of the year. No one down this way can fathom the reason for nullifying the law in this fashion, and the feeling is natur ally resentful because of the rank in justice done the craft on the lower river and the special privilege grant ed the people in the upper streams, whose sole claim appears to be found ed upon the very success that it is now desired to mitigate in the inter est of the whole industry. And the board and the warden are likely to hear from the fishermen down this way before it is through with. FOR POOL CHAMPIONSHIP CHICAGO, 111., March 25.-Two of the most skillful players of 15-ball pool in the world are to begin a world championship pool match at Mussey's academy in this city tonight.

ROLLER SKATING RIOT Regular Donnybrook Fight Occurs In Moutana Town. BUTTE, Mont., March. 25.-The six ray roller skating race cnuea last night in a small riot in which two arrests were, made by the police. Through a misunderstanding the racers failed to note the signal of the end of the race and sped on. While endeavoring to make a sharp turn Shortz of Salt Lake swerved too acutely and barely saved himself from a fall by grabbing Bradford of Butte. Bradford shook Shortz from him. sending him sprawling on the floor. At this Shortz's partner, Hardy, jumped into the mixtip and sent Brad ford tumbling over the floor. The crowd, noting that the racers were still going, despite the signal to stop, apparently thought some one was being wronged, and as a mob surged on to the course the fight began. The race ended with the Salt Lake and Butte teams on even footing.

WASHINGTON, March 25 That Porto Rico was governed better under Spanish rule than under American ad ministration, that the Spanish-American War and the consequent occupa tion of the island by the United States, has ruined the coffee industry, the most important in the island and that the executive council, composed leargely of Americans, is responsible entirely for the present crisis, were the declarations made last night by Luis Munoz Rivera, Chairman of the commission now here. The commis sion was appointed by the House of Delegates to lay before President Taft, Congress and the American peo ple, the reasons for the existing con ditions in the island and to ask for concessions from this country, both in regard to. the form of government for the island and on the tariff prop osition, f 5 Commissioner Rivera claimed that all the Porto Ricans, ask for is justice, and that the Americans are not giving them this.

SHREWD SMUGGLERS NEW YORK, March 25.-Customs house officers believe they have dis covered a novel method of smuggling goods ashore. It is charged that a trunk containing goods valued at $5,000 was swung- ashore from the American liner Philadelphia recently by means ml a wire and pulley. By this method a trunk or box might br hoisted quietly from a vessel and carried along the wire to an adjoin ing pier where there was no b6at and consequently no customs inspectors.
