Blnmaa I Astoria, Aug. 5.- The sprtn fish ing season on the Columbia river came to7 a close a noon Wednes day, and estimates place the pack; at approximately 67,O0O j caaes, which la about 20 per cent greater than jfor Kit .'

Instead of the season being a failure, as was feared during the summer, tt has proved to be one of the best In years. The run of salmon the last two weeks has been responsible for the big pack, together with a fairly good run at the opening of the season. : H JIVCH OF HIGH G BADE : The canned pack of the first grade Chinook Is the largest It has been I In years, the fish being an extraordinary fine quality. i The gill nets wilt do the best of any class of gear in the river this year. With ' a few exceptions the season has been a failure for the seining grounds, while the trollers ha.v fs.rd poorly. The trappers also met with poor luck. The principal res son that the pack of pickled fish is no more this year Is due to the fact that while the European war 1a over, Germany, which In former years was the principal: consumer of that product, is not as yet receiving any of the output. As a result local plants packed no pickled fish this season, i mo atjr paid , . : . j It Is estimated that CI per cent of the canned salmon on the river is packed in what ts km Tit mm half eases of 24 pounds each, with the pack estimated at 697,000 cases. ' Anproxtmately 2S.2S7.800 pounds of raw fish were required to make the pack. At the ruling price of 12 cents a pound, approximately $3,393,000 wa paid the fishermen on the Columbia river for the season, which began May It Is estimated that,! according to present prices, the nack ef salmon and pickled fish in the markets of the world la worth approximately 17.500,000. t The number of cases of 'caned salmon as they run put up by the .

It is perfectly apparent that the labor cost on the tonnage of uoaii has been high and this has not been due. to the miners, but to the condition of the railroads.

Nothing oouia be more dangerous than the con solidatlon of the presidency and the United States senate, and this is what is contemplated by the Republican lead ers this year. Not only that, but fabu lous sums of money have been con trlbuted by selfish, ' greedy Interests to buy the election. ...

' Much addi tional evidence has been received by hint during the last, two days, he said. Cox was told that the Quota of one county, was I3.000. He pulled some papers from his pocket and said: "No, it Is $40,000. You know the Republicans have been ' mighty careless in their financial campaign." The candidate in his speeches today was not expected to. go into any details of his campaign fund information. Ha stated ; that he prefers to keep it all secret until the Pittsburg address. The' ""cague oc Nations, agricultural and labor problems were expected to be.-hie main topics. t s i -1 CSovernor " Cox left Dayton at mid night, and his - trip schedule has been changed so that the governor will go direct to Evansville for a reception.
