Baltimore is waging war on gypsy moth to save city shade trees. The Multnomah Anglers', club and the Clackama County Rod ' and Gun club, are 'preparing to make a strong fight before th next legislature to have th Willamette river closed to gill net fishing. I Measure affecting th fishing in terests of the state have caused bit ter contests in past assemblies, and the prospect Is that ' th contest be tween th sportsmen and the com mercial fishermen will be no less keen at the forthcoming session. It Is the contention of the sportsmen that 3S3S Columbia river fishermen now come up th Willamette and In three or four nights after the season opens on ' May 1 absolutely strip the river below the falls at Oregon City, of all salmon, without commensurate benefit themselves and completely spoiling lino fishing for the rest of the season. The Multnomah and Clackamas clubs have just issued a circular, which is being sent tp th member of the legislature, presenting tne rea sons for their objections to net fish' ing in the Willamette and outlining the legislation tney aesire. xney asg to have a law enacted embodying the following three provisions: Sec 1. It shall be unlawful to fish for salmon in th Willamette rlvr by any means whatever except: with book and line. - Sec. 2. Fishing for salmon . with hook and line shall b permitted in the Willamette river at my time of year, provided, however; that no per on shall tak mora than six salmon In any one day. It 1 also understood that this limit of six fish per day shall be effective at all seasons of the year. Sec 3. Any salmon legally taken with hook and line may be offered for delegation have Indicated tnetr read!- at at any vime, wun c nnairwv w Mimyn wn nppn wu tng that all dealer handing such flsa carrying out the wishes of the sports- shall keep a record of tnair purcnasea, showing from whom tho fish : were bouarht. data of nurehase. and the num- Lper of fish, as well as the total weight Change is Asked. Xa support of the shove provisions Lth two clubs say the present law should be changed because:, . l. Our atate hatcheries depend upon th run of Chinook salmon n the Wil lamette river for tneir suppiy or spring eggs, and unless they get a suf ficient supply of these spring egg th run of ehlnobk salmon in th Colum bia river cannot be perpetuated. - a. Th river for several miles below the falls Is a natural trolling ground for hook and lin fishermen, and . the sport to be had there can be made a ; valuable asset to th state. a. Under present conditions a sma j group of net fishermen tak out nearly 1 all th fish, as th river for mile below the fall Is so narrow mat me . salmon are very easily caught in gill neta Records show that on tns nrst four night's work this season the net fishermen took - -out 1 Jl tons of sal mon. Great export Promised. 4. With net fishing prohibited w would have three months of th grand' act salmon trolling- in th world, which. ' an yon could enjoy at a slight coat. and even under tne most lavoreole conditions the total catch by all the anglers for 'this throe months' troll ing season would not exceed 7h per cent of the amount taken by the net fishermen in the four nights men tioned above. AHso the closing of th river to net fishing will insure an un. failing supply of fish for th hatcher ies on the upper river. --. The sportsmen point out that with proper development hook and line sal mon fishing will become an important asset to the state. They declare that no man who engages in net fishing on the Willamette can truthfully say that h depends en this fishing as a means ot livelihood. They say th taxpayer of Multnomah and Clackama counties contribute over $10,000 for th main tenance of salmon hatcheries, from which they now derive no direct ben efit.

Professor Gus tav Meyer's official almanac for the year 1915 makes it clear that the lot of those who are compelled to live through the year 1915 will be indeed dire. If there be anything of an un fortunate character that is not booked to occur next year the professor falls to recall the name of it. And Jt la all due to the juxtaposition of Mars and the position of Uranus, which is sit ting down when it ought to be stand ing up,, or something Ilk that Among other predictions Professor Meyer says: Xnterrentiom Coming. , "The drama Is about to eom into its own again. Connubial Infelicity is go ing to run wild. Motion pictures are done for. Spain is going to join the war next month. What tho German Zeppelins leave of London won't be worth cabling about. "Next month," t he adds, "we are go ing to intervene in Mexico. This will irk Mr. Wilson, but business is busi ness." ' Now a to 1915 and real doing. The stars, 'Professor Meyer continues, have It that India is going to revolt against England and join Germany. Albany. Philadelphia, Baltimore. Chi cago, St Louis, Washington and Port land, Or., are due for earthquakes. President Wilson is in for it In addition to the anguish that the Mex ican affair will cause htm, Air. Wil son will have 17 unlucky days. Pro fessor Meyer even names them. Al most anything may happen to the president on those days, tho professor says. Calamities Prophesied. It won't be a bit of fun to be a king. Besides war troubles, there will be a liberal sprinkling of scandals among th royal folks. Perhaps th king and queen of England will get a di vorce. , Subways, mines and all underground places are due to meet with calamity. Strikes and riots will abound, and th L W. W. will rag as of old. Th mili tia will do its best, which win be Uttl. Congress will authorize, he predicts. Ei "When chill November's surly blasts "Make fields and forests bare. . .
