the seventh judioial distriot, is now in
Portland, getting ready tor tbe work of
this year. Tbe meeting will ocoar next
month at Salem.
Morrow oonnty having been out off
from the old judicial distriot at tbe last
session of tbe legislatnro, and with
Umatilla county forming the sixth judi

tion at tbe last meeting of the board,
bnt through an oversight tbe governor
was not asked to appoint a member to
act till one could be eleoted, thongb the
law plainly says he shall do so.
It ia to be hoped that tbe Eastern
Oregon members of the board will work
in haini'Miy and to the beat interests of
the entire stats a well as to onr section.
Mr. Johnson, member-elect from this
district, ie preparing himself for the
work before him and no doubt he will

"It is enterUiiiias to watch San
Diegans catch sea bass," saya a trav
eler. "Fim, they licit a miauow hook
with a bit of worm, and catch a min
now. Theu they bait the taiunow on a
larger hook, aud fish with it to capture
smelt. When they ;t t lie smelt they
take their heavy sca-ilahmg tackle,
place the 6mclt oa the hook, and go to
angling for a halibut or sea bass. After
they get their halibut or sea bass, and
the bigger either is the better, they
bait it on a hook which is as big as a
small anchor with only one fluke. This
hook is attached to a line a quarter of
an inch in diameter. When all is ready
the fishcrmti! whirls the big hook with
the halibut on it several times around
his head, and then gives it a toss out
into the water. Away it sails thirty or
forty feet.
"Say, for instance, that this black
bass fishing is being Uono from the
long do-k at San Diego. San Diego
bay is about the best place for this
fishing along the coast, although the
fish arc plentiful at other places. After
the baited end of the line is cast the
other end is coiled on the dock, and an
empty keg or quarter barrel, or some
thing liko that, is tied to it. Then the
fisherman gets in his rowboat, taking a
harpoon with him, and waits for a bit.
Seems queer, here in the east, doesn't
it, to go out . after black bass? The
trouble is, you see, that the black bass
of those southern California water
weigh from three hundred, to one thou
sand pounds, and it wouldn't be much
use to go out after them with fly tackle
and an eight-ounce rod. That's what I
said. Thousand pounds. And it's
true, every word of it. It Isnt often,
one as largo as that is taken, but they
have been, and will be again. I helped
kill one onco that weighed six hundred
pounds. It took over fire hours to do ,
It, but that waa nothing extraordinary,
for a two hundred pounder will give hia
captors a good three hours' fight any
time. I
''Sometimesoneof these monster basa
wiil be ready at hand when the halibut 1
or sea bass bait goes sailing through '
the air and lands with a splash in the
water, and will seize it immediately,
but more frequently there is more or
less of a wait for the big fish to bite. 1
When he takes the bait, true to basa
nature, away he goes with a rush. In
stantly as many persons on the deck aa
can get a hold on the line seize it and
slacken tho tremendous fellow's pace if
thay can. If he doesn't happen to be
too big they can generally fetch him
to, but that 1 a rare occurrence. Uau- I
ally the lino whizzes through their
fingers at a rate that makes more than
one of those having' hold of the lino
drop it quickly to save their handa
from blistering. The shore end of the
line ia soon reached, and it is dropped.
for thoae handling it would be pulled
head first off the deck if they held to it
Then the empty keg or barrel plum pa
overboard, and the water chase ia on.
The fishermen in the boat follow the
barrel as it is towed swiftly over the
surface, and if tho fish ia a particularly
large one it frequently happena that
there will be a long, atern chase of the
barrel before tho boat overtakes it,
that being the object of the men in the
boat,"
irlONSTER POPULATION OF ANTS
They
Teach Lessons In Industry aad
Perfect Government.
There are more ants to the square
mile in Florida than in any other
country in the world, says a writer in
the Savannah News. There are ants
which will measure more than half an
inch in length, aud then there are ants
so small that they can scarcely be seen
to move with the unaided eye. There
are red ants and black ants and
troublesome ants. But, as bad as they
are, I have never heard of them eating
out the seat of a man's trousers, as a
missionary, Ilev. Mr. Wilson, once told
tho writer he saw the army ants do in
India while t!-c mnn was sitting on
the earth for u f l-w minutes beside him,
Hut the Florida ants will take out
the lettuce nr;.l o'.'ser minute seeds
from tho sc.;l i.i v.bl U they are plant
ed, and ccU:nlV.'dc: roy the bed. They
will suck the l!?e f '.t of acres of young
encumbers nr-l i."ion plants, uproot
strawberry p'avt i r cover the buds
with earth to s;v ki e::tent as to kill
them. They v. 1-1 f.t into pie, pickle,
sauce, sirup, suj;ar, on meat, in hash,
will riddlo a crivc or fill a loaf of
brker's bread ti'l it h; worthless.
All remedies failing, I took to bait
ing them near their nests with slices
of meat, bones, apple and pear par
ings, and when I had from fifty thon
sand to one hundred thousand out
turned a kettlo of boiling water on
them. I have killed during the last
week over one million in the space of a
quarter-acre lot, and I have almost
whipped them out. I had to do this to
secure any lettuce plants, and many
observant farmers complain of seeds
men when they should attribute their
troubles to insects.
It is very curious and instructive to
see how promptly the ants which eS'
cape the scalding go to work taking
out the dead, and, after pulling them
outside first, then go to excavating
again and rebuilding their cells and
runways. This being done very quick
ly the next work on hand is the laying
I in of a supply of food by hauling the
I dead bodies of the hot-water victims
into their storehouses.
You may see a small black ant haul
ing and tugging at the carcass of a red
ant twenty times its own weight, and
he always succeeds in the end in haul
ing it in the warehouse of the colony.
Next you may see a sort of ambulance
corps searching for the disabled.
Thefe are taken to the underground
house, where the surgeons and nursef
are in waiting. Theu, too, you ma'
see the timekeepers and bosses direct
ing thia on or turning another back
ou some errand or to some other duty.
There is not a moment's delay, no
halting feet, no idle hands, but all
move as if it waa their last day on
earth and this was the only hour left
in which to redeem a misspent life.
For lessons in industry and perfect
government go to the ants.
