Astoria, Oregon, Thursday Morning, February 23, 1882 No. 122. jfJ r JL it SOME UNNEIGHBORLY FIBS CORRECTED. The San Francis&o Bulletin makes the salmon expose at Chi cago the subject of an editorial article, saying a great deal aboujl ine superior quality of the fish taken in California waters and the high reputation -which it has earned in the eastern and British markets. We quete: "There is no occasion for Sacramento river salmon, caught and canned within tho regular open season, to be concealed under any other than a California label. Tho fish will hold their own in any market against tho salmon of any part of the world. As evidence of the favor which California salmon has obtained in other parts of the country, it is only necessary to mention the fact that the United States hatchery on the McCloud the headwaters of the Sacramento river has shipped large quantities of Sacramento river salmon fry to the east and to Oregon, to restock their impoverished rivers." The truth is. that the fish taken in the Sacramento is far inferior to the Chinook or Columbia river salmon. It lacks the fine color, rich oil and peculiar salmon flavor which are the characteristics of the Chinook; and wherever they are put on the market, side by side, is regarded as inferior and sold cheaper. For years it has been the habit of California canners and exporters? jtbfput jlieir inferior product on the market ialsely labeled as coming from the Columbia or Frazer rivers and the instance of detection in Chicago is but one of many similar expositions. Tne statement that salmon fry from the McCloud hatchery have, been sent to re stock 'odr."impoverished. rivers," is of a piece with the frauds which 'has brought our salmon into dis favor in many markets. The census report for 1880 the figures for 1881 which show H greater difference in our favor have not been published officially shows tho value of the Columbia river export to have been S2,728,G02, while tho Sacramento river export amounted to but $492,205.. Ore gon patiently endures a great deal , -of-misrepresefltation by California papers with no other sensation than pity fur their ignorance; but sometimes, as in this instance, the statements are so grossly false and damaging as to demand a protest. r'Vregonian. Verbosity. Young newspaper reporters and writers havo a good deal of "over flow" some of them so much that they seem to think that the main object of writing is to fill up space. They make a paragraph out of a squib, and a page out of an item. The New Haven Regis ter thus caricatures one green hand: Young Fitzlamonde has just en tered journalistic life, and is going to "cut a swath." Ho believes in putting in a good deal of "color" in his items, and prides himself ou his work. Ho sharpened a couplo of pencils on both ends this morn ing and bpgun: "We regret to inform our read ers that tho estimable Miss Jones, of Jonesboro, daughter of Con gressman Jones, and granddaugh ter of tho well known founder of the village of Jonesboro, has met with a fearful accident. "As she was driving along tho boulevard, at the speed of tho wind, the horse a half brother of Maud S.,and full s ster of St Julicn, became suddenly startled by the uprising of a covy of partridges, which are usually numerous in that section thiB season, and prom ise a groat deal of fun for the sportsman when the law is off njtocl Vthecircled; Uw 'frightened steed tore down the avenue like mad until stopped by the gallant hand of officer 73 . of the Ninth Ward. "Her injuries were a contusion of the ankle which did not amount to a fracture, and the unfortunate girl was carried home td her grief stricken parents and sympathizing friends." The city editor at this point was anxious for "copy," and glancing it over rapidly, crumpled it in his hand, remarking, "Fitzy, you have piled up tho words, haven't you? You've given all your fancy painted. Good boy! But remember this de partment is the domain of fact." He then scribbled: "Tho daughter of Congressman Jones was run away with by a spirited horse on tho avenue yester day afternoon. Injuries nominal. m How Stte Shook Him. "Carita!" "Yes, mamma, I'm coming and with a bright smile on her pure, sweet face Carita MahafFy tripped lightly down the broad staircase that led from her boudoir to tho parlors below, with their dazzling array of chandeliers, the bright light from which was soft ened by the heavy tapestries ihat o'erhung the mullioncd windows. Her little feet, incased in slippers of tho tiniest pattern, sank deeply into the velvet carpet with which the floor of the carpet was covered, and she glided so noise lessly across the apartment that Aristides Jones, who stood in an attitude of careless grace near a marble figure of Psyche, was not aware of her presence until a pair of soft arras were twined about his neck, andoivelvety kiss was pressed upon his lips. "Ah! my own dear love," he said, returning the kiss with com pound interest and back taxes, "I thought you would be here" and again their lips met. "Why did you come so late?" Carita asked, as Aristides uncon ciously moved towards the eta gcrie on which Mr. Mahaffy's box of cigars was always to be found. "Oh, I thought I would give some other fellow a chance," was the laughing reply; "somo of the crowd that know that it is useless to come around unless they bring a box of candy. I'm past the point, you know, where you love me only for my confectionery purchasing ability," and again ho laughed a joyous, . triumphant laugh. "Perhaps not," said Carita. "Perhaps you have not got such a walkover around here as you think. 'Tis an old saying that the MahafFy women look upon men's hearts as mere playthings for their idle moments. Bewaro then that you do not tread upon my haughty pride." "I am not worrying any , sis, just now," said Aristides. "Nevertheless," said tho girl, "you may do so before long. Thero are many men bosido you whom I could lovo. In fact. I thiuk you are no good." "Perhaps you would like to say f, "J" !. will jvuiic malty in a trembling tone. Carita gazed earnestly at him for a moment. A baleful light was in her eyes those eyos that had so recently beamed upon him with melting tenderness. "Good bye," she said suddenly in low, thermometer-b elow-zero tones, pointing to the door as she spoke. 1 Aristidos saw that his fate was sealed and stamped. He walked slowly to the door. "Good-bye," ho murmured in hoarse tones. The words fell from his lips with a bitter, heart-broken intonation, Very different from that passion ate incredulity with which they had fust spoken it. Their mean ing had forcod itself upon him now, and a glimpse of the horror they signified came before him. He opened the door, walked down the steps in a dazed manner, and was lost in the darkness. The next morning ho was fined len dollars on a-chargo of ''driuik and disorderly." From "The Si ren and the Sucker" by the Chi cago Tribune Novelist. Sea-Sickneas. This ii caused in great part by the confusing effect which the tossing on the water has upon the brain, and multitudes of ways have been pursued for avoiding or ut least mitigating this annoy ance. The best plan is to let it have its course and rid the system of that excess of bilo which is most always present in this overeating age; the general health rarely fails to be greatly improved by it although in very rare cases, per haps not more than one in a mil lion, the pationt dies under the ef fects of tho long- continued and exhausting retching. If a person will lie down with the eyes closed, and not allow the Uiead for an instant to bo raised from tho pillow, there i3 an almost cutiro exemption from niusea and other discomforts, but tho result of this course is that it will be necessary to keep abed during the entire voyage. The effort should be to shorten the sickness and get ridnfitassoon as possible, and this is best done by not lying down at all, but resolutely keep ing on the feet, on deck, in the op'en air if tha weather permits, that is, if it be not raining; this requires moral courage and con siderable force of will and charac ter, but it seldom fails to abridge the period of sea-sickness, some times to confine it to a few hour's djration, and then the remainder of the voyago can be enjoyed as it ought to bo. The tendency .td nausea on shipboard is abated somewhat by any stimulus which acts decidedly on the nervous system, such as chloroform, brandy, opiates etc. Irritants, such as tho strongest spices, abate nausea; so will great mental emotions, in short, any thing that draws ofF the attention of tho mind. No person can be sea-sick if tho ship be on fire, nor will a person who is drunk. A brisk purgative just before going on board, or a dose of medicino taken the night before, is good. Still, tho wisest, most healthful and most expeditious method of meeting sea-sickness is to avoid all preventives, all modicines, and manfully detcrmino to keep upon your feet and let it do its worst Vaccination. Tho following is the expression of the American medical associa tion, the highest authority on medical matters in tho United States: One single and perfect vaccinatton does not, for all time, in all cases, protect from tho dis ease, but one or -more re-vaccinations do; consequently a physician should recommend ro-vaccination, w hen questioned as to its necess ity, Somo persons are protected through life by one vaccination, some are protected only for a cer tain period of timo, its length be ing undetermined; while some re quire to be vaccinated a number of times. The system is protected from contagion when it is no longor susceptible of vaccine influence, as tested by vaccination; that is, trtion it ill nnt Hiatu Tl. .- wtietl it will not UK.
