Drifts and Tow Heads 1876.
iUppor Astoria, Clatsop county, Oregon. 1
April 24. 187G.
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.

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
