At a Special meeting of the Coluiii- 'bia River Fisbermens Beneficial Aid &ociet3T, the following regulations for the government of all concerned were adopted. That the following drifts and tow heads be established for the fishing season of 1876. First Drift. From Woody Island to Brown's point. Second Drift. From Brown's Point inside of Snag Island to the 12th red tmo-. Third Drift. From the loth buoy -to Tongue Point Fourth Drift. From Tongue Ppint to a. point a little west of Booth's -Cannery, at a place to be designated by a spile or some permanent mark. Fifth Drift. From the termina tion of the 4th drift to Smith's Point. Sixth Drift From Smith's Point to the Pacific Ocean. Seventh Drift. From the red buoy in the Prairie channel to Tongue Point up or down. Eighth Drift. The big snag in Chinook shoot will be considered a tow head. The fishermen in Astoria, in coun cil have mutually agreed to bind themselves to be governed by the foregoing drifts, and it is expected from boats outside of the Society that they will also conform to the same. Any fisherman who is not fortunate enough to be a member of this Society has 'still another opportunity to join this Society, by applying before the 10th day of May, 1S76, in accordance with the notice published elsewhere in the Astohiax. After which time the initiation fees will be raised to twenty-five dollars. By order of the Society, THOMAS DEALEY, Sec. -Br fine and Artistic Photographs, go to Buchtel & Stolte, 01 and J3 First street, Port land, the only first class Gallery in Oregon. n3"Thevery finest Photographs at Sinister & Davidsons, corner of First and Yamhill streets, Portland, Oregon.

Advertise An exchango says : Maybe you think that people don't like to read .advertisements ! If you do you aro much mistaken. Fresh, well-put well-placed ad vertisements aro news ! They aro welcomed, read nay, studied ! The newspaper lhat is aljvo with them is increasingly acceptable and so is the business house that knows how .to get them up, possessed withal with the sagacity and nerve to keep them up. Takk Your Local Paper. A man in Marion .county last week saved $1) by taking his local paper, the Mercury, and there is u man in this county, near J'rownsvillc, who told us, a short time ago, that he had made anMi-acrc tract of land by being a reader of the Dcmo .crat. II e had been wanting for a long time to buy an SO, adjoining his farm, but could get no track of the owner, who was a non-resident of the State, and finally saw it advertised for tux sale in the J)emocrat. He attended the sale and bought it for a nominal sum, and is now the owner of it. Albany. Democrat. f Warning to Delinquent Suescrirers. A ! Russian paper announces that a belief in the .approaching end of the world has sei.ed on ! tho Cossacks of the Don. .Many, especially .aged people, are giving up wordly a Hairs, wearing a shroud, and ordering their colIins. On every road arc men repairing to Moscow to be consecrated 'priests, in order that, tho smallest village may have its own priest and church. Tho ilussian paper fails to stato whether its delinquent subscribers have taken the scare and paid up. That to our mind would be stronger evidence of the approach of the .Millennium than any thing that a super stitious Cossack could advance. Don't Re vd Advertisements. Occasionally a business man is encountered who professes to believe that" people don't read advertise ments any how !" A greater mistake issel .dom made. If a typographical error creeps into an ad. it soon becomes the talk of the neighborhood,.and if the people do not read ad1?, how do they drop' on errors with such facility V The other day the advertisement of tho Centennial Restaurant appeared, in which the woid" eating"' was set up" fating," where upon we were duly notified of the error by seven Salinasitcsand one Chinaman, and la.-t-ly, the Monterey Herald felt in duty bound to not notify u5 also. JJuuj Jiecuider, Salinas City, .California. "It Pays to Advertise." This i truo in every department of business, and no one aji preciatcs its truth more fully than i?. if. Thompson. Some time since he received the Agency, for this county, of the Cunningham ''Garden City Clipper Jlow," and immediate ly advertised the same in our payer. Green B. Smith, -.sq.. a patron of the Gazette, saw the advertisement and forthwith rushed to Thonmson's and purchased four-of these cele brated plows which at once have sprung into popular favor. .No mater how good and valu able an article may be, a merchant or dealer may keep it upon his shelves, or in his ttore for months, or even years, and but tew will know anything ot its good qualities, unless he advertises. 1 or years M r. 1 hompson carried on business here, and spent but little for .advertising. Within the past two years his business has increased nearly double, and he attributes it to judicious advei Using. If you want to thrive in business, ADVi.iiriSK Cor rallfx Gazette.
