Shad season is ended today.
Willamette lver Tishiiur Is Closed.
The jjpen fishing season .along the
Willamette river, and its tributaries
closed today and on that account there
Is likely to be a shortage in fish sup
plies locally during- the next few "days.
The closing of the season along the
Willamette has again brought forth agi
tation br the shad men against classing
the Wllfamette slough as a tributary
o , the . Willamette river. With the
closing of f lnhlng along the Willamette
there is a like cessation of operations
along the Willamette slough. Most of
tha ih marlcittMl in this rltv comes
from '.he latter stream -and the -closing
of the river puts a ban unon shad opera
tions. On this score the fishermen claim
that the slough is In reality not a trib
utary of the Willamette river for Rt this
time the driftwood from the Columbia
comes' down the slough as well as the
main channel of the Columbia river.
The United , States government engi
neers are said to have classed the Wil
lamette slough as a tributary.- of the Co
lombia but nevertheless the .state -of
Oregon classes it as a portion f the
Willamette river. Old-time steamboat
men claim that, the stream how ceiled
the slough was in reality the main
channel of the Willamette river many
years ago.
Catch rtw Salmon la the Slough.
The present law closing the Willam
ette slough as well as the Willamette
river for fishing on June 16 was not
enforced until last season by , former
Pish Warden Van Dusen of Astoria.
When 4h law was framed but a small
amount of shad had been caught in the
slough so there was no complaint be?
cause Of Its passage.- I late years
S ractieally all the shad brought to mar
et hfia coma from the slough and the
enforcement of the provisions caused
much complaint last season and ' the
next legislature will likely be asked to
change the closed season. Only small
amount of salmon Is caught In -. the
slough snd fishers argn that the
Ing of the stream would cut absolutely
no figure In the protection of salmon.
Because of the high water in the Co
lumbia the catch of salmon there has
oeen cut down considerably.
Wheat Is Sown Again.
California buyers are not So anxious
to buy wheat In this market and the
price .offered i is, down .. another ! cent
making 2c for two days. Grain men are
fferinjr on a basis of 91c for bluestem
track, Portland or 88oror club. t
The flour market remains very slow
both locally and for export.. The nib
bling of the orint has not resulted In
any orders for the larger mills but the
smaller institutions are receiving a
small amount of business. One -of the
Inland Empire mills la said to be work

Strawberries . '"Are Sown
1 Strawberries sold at lower prices In
the Front street market today. The
blowing up- of a portion of the irriga
tion flume at Hood River had no effect
upon conditions here for at this time
of the season but a small amount of
fruK Is reeelyed from there. Local sup-
Iles are greatly Increase. Front etrvt

The Journal this morning that the
strawberry crop of that section is very
fair .lust about the same as a year ago.
Blackberries look rtulte good for qual
ity and excellent for a big crop. The
crop of raspberries will likely be about
the average.
Prospects for wheat are not an flat
taring as they might be In the Weston
country, though if tha prices remain
good, the farmers expect an; average
year. It Is likely that 85 bushels to
the acre Is all that will be received In
most places on account Of the unfavor-
dio season. iand that had been yield
ing about 60 bushels In the best years
will go about 40 this year, according to

melted thousands of ; dollars into - thin
nothingness, mortgages and deficits in
Umatilla county.-? Already a part of the
wheat crop Is beyond hone and a few
more days of this continuous heat beat
ing upon a dry and moistureless soil
will encompass the destruction of more
wealth than the country ever - lost be

ton Tribune of Saturday. .. -.-
fun uowman, in rrom nts ranch only
a couple of miles from town on the
reservation line, yesterday- said; "The
wheat all through the southwest sec
tion of the belt is just about gone. The
spring haa been exceedingly dry but so
long as the weather remained cool the
wheat stood up well and gave indica
tions of maturing. - But the. auddnn
change to the extreme heat ot the past
five days has simply burnt it upv The
ground was dry, no moisture in It, and
the heat haa worked terrific destruction.
Tall, nice wheat standing -rs high as a
man's hips. Is now withered and rapidly

or tomorrow
or the day after might hi
elp the- upper
section but I am afraid the rest is ton.
Anyhow, If any of the wheat crop of
Umatilla county Is to be saved there
must be rain and that at once." -
Mr. Bowman is one of tha biggest
wheat ranchers in the county ana has
made a fortune in the business and is
a man who knows the conditions.
Frank Fracer, also a well known
rancher, said yesterday:
'WllMf cropa? There will be no
wheat crop in the south and west and I
Km afraid there will be none in the
upper district, -not unless there Is a big
rain within the next day or two." - -
Tne seriousness or tne situation can
hardly be comprehended. It has been
known for-some time that there would
be no wheat crop in the lower end of
the county, along the edge of the belt,
but then a failure In that section every
year or two has always been taken for
granted and as a matter of course. . ,,
un tne otner nana tne coolness or tne
weather, civlna great assistance to tha
growing wheat, haa deceived manyt The
wheat stood high and 'green, looking
fine, but down in the ground there was
no moisture. Conseauently when the
cool weather, ended suddenly and , the
usual neat came on tne wneat simply
could not stand it and went down under
the thermal onslaught. -
mn - uowman says that neia after
field of wheat out in his section Is al
ready turning brown, drying up, burned
up, . For- such as this there Is ao hops.
Other fields ere rapidly turning. vSmall
hope-for -them. Soma fields are still
standing the dry heat but- they 'will not
hold out for many days without a' rain.
The rain must! come and coma at onoe.

warning to the mine workers of the

Mine Workers' Journal. He saya:
"If, on the 1st day ot April, 1909, the
miners of the anthracite field are In a
position to invite a reduction, then do
not be surprised if it is offered, and the
acceptance or rejection will devctve
upon -me men.
"They will have to act on a propo
sltion which the;
wnicn xney can avoia oy actini
now.
, illstory . shows there has never
been a war between nations of equal
zignung power unless it was wnen one
Or the other was thousht to be unrire-
pared or had miscalculated tha strength
of its adversary. The same thing Is
true industrially. -
"Anthracite miners have the situa
tion in their own hands by maintaining
a solid organisation with a strong de
fense fund behind them. They place
themselves in a position to hold this
year's scale, the same as the bitumi
nous miners for the next agreement.
"By neglecting their opportunity, by
refusing- to allv Ihmiu with th
organisation of their craft they Invite
and, seek an invasion oa the scale now
raid, and it may take another hard
Ight to hold it, and even then, not be
able to. All of which would be ren
dered unnecessary by maintaining their
union. , f ' -, .- , ;
