Mr. Crawford, In his opin ion, says: "Inferring to your question as to what should be done with the money, If any Is on hand, and also with the territory embruced within Its boundaries, when a school district ceases to be a legally or- gnnlxed district under the school laws of lloy. permit me to sny that, under , I .

The Wood men of the Wold are planning to-have a 'Woodman Day" at the State Fair this fall, and for thla purpose have ap pointed a committee to consult with the fair board regard Ipg the day to be set aside, and to ask for an appropriation to enable them to offer prizes for team drills, etc. The plan Is to secure funds outside of what money the board may appropriate and to offer three large prizes for the best drilled teams to com pete at the fair. It Is proposed to make Woodman Day the best day of the State Fair, and to make the prizes suf ficiently large to Interest all the camps in the' state, and to enable them to come from the most distant points and compete. It Is to be a state contest, and the m"rry "choppers" are confident lhat they wiil make a success of the venture. The members of the newly-created Plumbers' Inspection Hoard, which was appointed last week by Mayor Williaini, held their first session In the health office today. They had the new plum bers ordinance interpreted t , them, as viewed by the City Attorney, and ex pressed their determination to see that its requirements were rigidly observed. The principal feature of the new law is that portion requiring all plumber doing business In Portland to undergo an examination to determine their gen eral knowledge of the trade. This meas ure, it Is thought, will end any com plaints of faulty plumbing. Protest Against Improvement.

Speaking of the season s salmon catch and the conditions of the canneries, he said: "The salmon catch this year is way below any previous years. The season started out badly, but It was confidently thought that it would improve and that June would be a good month. Far from it, June haB proved one of the poorest months of the year. "I talked with Mr. George, secretary of the Columbia River Packers' Asso ciation. He told me that he had never eeen salmon as scarce and of as poor quality and size as during the present season. 'The cold storage people of the lower Columbia told me the same thing. The poor catch naturally means much to the railroads for thousands of tons of cold storage salmon are shipped East every year, largely for export from the At lantic seaboard. "While I was In ABtorlav' a launch came Jn txom the. ..flsJUnKK,staUQa -vWltU only 3.00 pounds. On an average the same launch would, in a good season, bring in about 10,000 pounds. This il lustrates how poor the catch has been and is. In former years where a fishing launch has visited the stations, as much as 60 tons haB been found ready for transfer. "High water Is conceded to be the cause of the poor catch."

CORRUPTION FOUND IN INDIANAPOLIS The Willamette has reached Its high water mask for th year of 1903. Such was the predlcttonVaf Forecast OQlcIul Kd ward 'Reals ' this morning. The rise in the Columbia has ceased and .the Snake RlvTr has not come up to ex pectations. It has fallen over three feet during the last week, which is the best evidence that could be desired that the annual freshet Is over. The action of the Snake has been a very puszltng one this year. Spring report showed heavy snowfalls over this river's basin, and it was expected "when" the heat of sum mer struck It to cause a mad rush of water to tho river banks. On the con traTy. "the Snake only reached a small margin over tho danger line 'Which, In the Columbia's largest tributary is 10 feet. The rise In the Columbia River was n very marked one, and alone la responsi ble for the high water in the Willamette. The high water reached at Wenatchee In 1K94, the year of the big flood at Port land, was 5S feet. The Columbia at Wenatchee came to a stand today and the gauge read 47.08 feet, which Is only a difference of about 10 feet. The Co lumbia rose for nearly a week at the rate of about 2.05 feet per day. which l a very heavy rise for any river without the assistance of Its tributaries. If the Snake River had risen anywhere near its usual flood height the situa tion at Portland would have been a very precarious one and a repetition of the 1894 flood could not have been avoided. The river at Portland will remain on a stand Sunday and then a steady fall will mark the end of the Willamette's rise this year. The rljer at The Dalles Is still over the danger line, but will start to fall very rapidly from now on. The Willamette will reach Its normal stage in about 30 days. The river gauge at the different sta.- tlorftr read as follows this morning: Stage of Change Stations. river today. Portland, Or 24.0 The Dalles. Or....... 42.6 TTmatlHa.
