Deputy Sheriff Fleischauer of Cascade
Locks came up today with C. L. Mervin,
an intelligent and reputable stone-cutter
of the Cascade Locks, the latter com
mitted by the justice of the peace at the
Locks. Mervin says he has committed
no crime, and on telling his story, the
sheriff refused to deprive him of his
liberty. Mr. Mervin says he had been
called npon by the supervisor to pay his
road tax, when he stated that he was an
exempt fireman. He did not 'show bis
papers and was cited to appear before
the justice of the peace. He did so, and
without being asked to produce bis
papers, was committed for refusal to
pay his tax, on the ground tfiat the
papers should be filed on the public
record.. Under the present eight the
affair eavors of injustice. The expenses
of the county .on account of 'it will
amount to about $25.

Two gentlemen who recently took a
fishing and hunting trip by foot with a
pack horse, along the line of the railroad
to Portland and to Tillamook bay, tell
many interesting facts.
On the outgoing trip little creeks ' put
ting into the Columbia on the Oregon
side were found to' be chock fall of sal
mon. , So great were their numbers that
they almost dammed the creek in places.
The water was clear and they could
plainly be seen. For the most part they
were very large, many being about three
feet in length. : They would not bite at a
hook, and one of the hunters wasted
several shots from a rifle trying to shoot
one, nntil it occurred to him all at once
that he must allow for the reflection
caused by the water. Holding, about
four inches nnder he tried again,, the
shot piercing the fish about the center of
the body. - After thrashing about in the
water for some minutes, discoloring it
with his blood, he was finally captured.
On the return trip three weeks later,
there seemed to be nearly as many fish,
but tbey were dead. They had beat
themselves to death trying to ascend the
streams over the rocks, and the air was
impreguated with their decaying stench.
The Tillamook bay country is pre-eminently
a dairy, country. Tbe forest
growth and brush is bo thick a rabbit
could not penetrate it, but there .Is a
strip of prairie land about 5 miles wide
by 20 long, which furnishes annually the
most phenomenal growth of clover and
alfalfa ever eeen. Almost every family
owns milk cows and depends upon milk
and its manufactured products for a liv
ing. Whole shiploads of cheese are' ex
ported from Tillamook bay, raised in this
small area. It. is a lazy man's country, for
outside of milking twice a day and turn
ing the herds into pasture, little else
furnishes occupation, and hnnting and
fishing may be indulged. Neither is
profitable from a commercial standpoint,
though salmon fishing might be made to
reach enormous proportions. Tillamook
bay is usually full of the finest salmon.
but only the very largest are esteeme'd of
value. The fish nets have meshes six
inches square, -and any fish that can
wriggle through that is not merchanta
ble. An average of 15 cents each is paid
fishermen for salmon, but the few can
neries along the bay have much more
offered than they can use, and tons of
fish rot for lack of a. market.
livery tamiiy along the bay nas a
boat. Indeed it is hard to. get along
without one, as lateral distances along
the ocean are- more easily covered by
water than land, owing to the tremen
dous ' growth of 'timber. The inhabi
tants havs acquired a universal fondness
for crabs, with : which the bay is well
stocked, and properly, cooked are said
to be as delicious as an oyster. These
crabs are as large as a big turtle, and in
the clear water eight or ten feet be
neath the surface may be seen sidling
along the bottom, apparently without
definite object. When these are de
sired for a dinner by the Tillamook
denizen, he pulls out into the bay in a
small boat, and with bis oar jahs the
crab with the end of it upon his back.
This breaks the fragile shell of the Crus
tacean, and he immediately turns over,
and helplessly wriggles his lees upward.
He is then easily secured . with a hook
and drawn into the boat.
The Tillamook bay country will bt
very lively next year, as the government
proposes to construct three big jetties in
the bay, and there will be a great de
mand for labor in the woods near the
ocean beach.
Mr. Campbell's Sojourning.
U. S. Deputy Surveyor Will E. Camp
bell and son, Charles, returned Monday
from the season's work in the field, em
bracing surveys near Cottonwood, Lower
John Day valley, near Murderous creek,
south fork of John Day river, ten miles
west of Baker City, and on Hay Creek,
near 3U-MUe. si any spots or niscoric
interest were passed over, among tnein
the battle ground where fought the lit
tle scouting party out from Canyon
City to meet the Piutes the memorable
summer of '78, when Oliver Aid ride
was killed ; the old and almost forgotten
Auburn ditch, dug by the hardy miners
in the early bUa to bring water to tne
rich placers of that lively camp; the
desolate gorge of Goodrich creek, where
the over-charged reservoir. gave way last
spring and swept away the home and
lives of a family of seven In an instant's
time.
While having little time to discuss
political matters, Mr. Campbell gath
ered the conviction, after passing
through nine counties, that McRioley
will carry ' Oregon. Grant county is
true to her name, and in Sherman and
Gilliam counties he found sheepmen,
already pushed hard by free trade, who
are ready to forego protection even, were
it necessary to do so, to save the conn
try's credit and maintain a sound money
standard. This shows their apprecia
tion of the grave issue now before the
people. While there may be a few de
serters, there will be no skulkers from
Republican ranks next election day.
