One of the largest 'andiences ever as
sembled in the Congregational church of
this city, greeted the pastor and the A.
L. P. S. quartet last evening." After the
opening services the quartet, compoeed
of Messrs. Aikers. Lundell, Poling and
Steele, renderecL"Let the Lower Lights
Be Burning" in a most pleasing and ef
fective manner. The -gentlemen com
posing the quartet have delighted audi
ences in different towns in the Willam
ette y alley many times during the
past few years and the effort of --their
work together is very apparent. Seldom
have tbe people of The Dalles had an op
portunity to hear bettor male voices.
Their singing last evening will .insure
for them a large attendance at the con
cert. The sermon by Rev.' Polinz upon
tbe subject of "True Manhood" was a
most immpressive one and was listened
to with careful attention by the large
audience.
. It will be some satisfaction to those in
terested in . fruit-raising, . (in . fact to
all of us) to learn that Wasco county has
suffered less from the late .winter frosts
than any county yet heard from. The
damage seems to be confined to certain
localities, and depends mostly on the
altitude, he fruit on the Ibwlands suffer
ing more than that on the hillsides, and
tbe furthe west you go ' in this county
the greater the loss. An exception to
this rule was, however, found when upon
examining same sample blanches from
Grants, Mr. Schanno found them in
good condition ; while a lot sent by Mr. j
Root at Mosier, proved badly injured.!
Tbe orchards anong Mill creek have suf
fered much more than, those . on Dry
Hollow and 3-Mile. The situation seems
to baffle many. For instance, Mr. An
derson, of Chenoweth creek, claims
that his fruit has come out in fairly good
shape, while A. Y Marsh and G. W.
Halvor, but a short distance below his
place, report much of theit s in a hope
less condition. And so reports are con
flicting. "However,.. Mr. Schanno still
contends that we are' 0 have a good
fruit crop, outside of apricots and a por
tion of the peach crop, all other fruit
surviving.' ,, '

FISHING IN THE COLUMBIA.
Close Season Begins Wednesday Some
Features of the New Law.
According to the law passed by tbe
late legislature the close fishing Beason
begins Wednesday and. lasts until April
loth, on which'latter date the - spring
salmon season opens. Any person found
fishing between March 1st and April
15th will be arrested.
Among other things the law provides
that it shall be unlawful for any person
to take, patch or 3 eh for salmon or stur
geon in any of the waters of this state,
anleBB said person be a citizen of the
United States, or has declared his in
tention to become such, and has been a
bona fide resident of the state of Oregon
for the period of eix - months ; provided
that a license issued by the state of
Washington, such state having concur
rent jurisdiction on the Columbia with
this etate, shall be deemed valid as to
gillnets, and as to gillnet fishermen, for
use on the Columbia river, as though
issued, by the fish commissioner of this
state.
Thus in making applications for li
censes, fishermen must Eend with et:ch
application an affidavit as to tbe citizen
ship qualification.
It might be well at this time to call
the attention of fishermen to the require
ments of the law as to licenses.' First,
there is a personal tax of $1, which every
fisherman is required to pay." Then, the
person owning tbe boat and gear is re
quired to pav $2.50 a year.- Setnets must
pay $1; pbundnets, traps and weirs, $15;
scow fish-wheels, $15, and stationary
fish-wheels, $15. Canners must pay a
license of $100 a year.ior those who pack
not to exceed 10,000 cases annually, to
$450, for those who pack 40,000 cases or
more. Every cannery in operation roust
procure the license, no matter whether
more than one cannery is owned by the
company or not. Cold-storage and re
tail dealers are taxed from $10, for those
handling ten to twenty tons of -fish a
year, to $750 for those handling oyer
1000 tons. Persons who engage in the
business the coming year, and who were
not engaged last year, will be "listed in
the ninth class and shall - be required to
pay $250. ' " . ' . '
All licenses const be taken out between
now and April 15th. ' After' the -latter
date persons engaging in .fishing and
having failed to procure licenses shall be
regarded as criminals and punished a
such. -.
After April 15th all persons found
fishing withont a license will be arrested
and deprived of their gear, as provided
by law,.

Nlckel-ln-tne-Slot Bill.
Regarding this bill, which was filed
by the governor Friday, and the pur
pose of which is to eu pprees nickle-in-the-slot
machines, or similar devices, the
Salens Statesman says:
"This bill is expected to abolish tbe
nickel-in-the-slot, machines, but its op
ponents insict that it was not legally
passed by the legislature, and while it
will be on the statute, books, and
will have the effect of driving many of
the offending machines out of business,
it will not stand in law. Their asser
tions are based upon the manner of the
passage of the bill by the bouse. The
bill, after passing tbe senate, waB sent
to the house on February 7lb, where,
after bejng read twice, it was referred to
the committee' on printing, of which Mr.
Curtis, of Clatsop county, was chairman.
On the morning of February 17th, dur
ing the closing hours of the legislative
session, a report was called for, but none
was forthcoming, the members of the
committee being unable to produce the
bill, as Cnairman Curtis bad it in bis
possession, and be bad gone, to Astoria.
"The members favoring the measure
clamoced for the production of tbe bill,
and in order to satisfy tbe bouse, it is
reported, une member of the committee
produced a printed copy of the bill, se
cured the endorsements on tbe back of
it to Correspond as nearly as possible to
those supposed to be on tbe missing
document, and banded thie so-called du
plicate in as the report of the committee
and this bill was passed by tbe bouse as
tbe original bill. It was afterwards
found, so it is asserted by' those in a
position to know, that tvpographical
errors In tbe bill made tbe bill passed bv
the hou.ee read different from the origi
nal document, and it, therefore, was not
a duplicate, but a substitute or amended
measure, and as such should have been
returned to tbe senate for concurrence
' "This was not done, but tbe bill was
signedand , forwarded to the executive
office, and since tbe bill has received the
governor's signature, and has an emer
gency clanse, it is now in effect, and if
not in fact, it is to all intents and pur
poses a good and valid law, and will re
main so anless'con tested in the courts.
