Well! the legislature has ad journed; there is no use in trying to play a post mortem hand; simply "patienco, and bhuflle the cards." Tho Californian and Overland ZSTonthlj for November is received. It is n good number of a first-class pub lication, that should be encouraged bj' tho reading population of the Pacific coast. Dean Blanchard is down from Rauier with his new steamboat, the John West. It is a pretty little craft, and will be used by tho owner in towing from his mill to points on the Columbia river. Tho salmon bill (which was pub lished in full in yesterday's Astorian) passed both branches of tho legisla ture and will be the law after receiv ing the governor's signature.

With tho ex ception of Indian corn, this county can produce as fine crops of cereals'as any section of the United States. Our 8nmmoi3 are not hot enough to ripen Indian corn. Near Charlotte, X. C, a young son of Joe Faulkner was left in charge of his father's mill. While showing some playmates what he knew about the machinery he was caught in the belt and literally torn to pioces. This story has a kind of moral bearing on the fate of other "young sons" who think they understand political ma chinery. How do you liko the way Clatsop county is treated in tho mat tor of legislative apportionment? With 8,000 inhabitants we are given ono-half a representative, and one- third of a senator. But that is as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be world without end, till our citizens take public inter est enough in their own affairs to change it. Our Glorious Climate. To tho inhabitants of less favored climes who shiver for five months of the year amid surrounding ice and snow, and sigh for shade the other even, it may be well to say that the inhabitants of this and adjoining counties enjoy a climato the year round that is the finest and healthiest in the world; the thermometer ranging during that period from 50 to 75 degrees. During the other months of tho year comes a bountiful rain, insuring plentiful crops; and though occasionally a light fall of snow occurs about Christmas, yet its appearance is phenomenal, tho thermometer i-arely linking below tho freezing point, and for a largo proportion of the time a man can work out of doors in his shirt sleeves. The Closing Sceue. (Special lo tin Standard.'. Salkm, Oct. 20, 1882. The final ballot by which Hon. J. IS. Dolph was elected was concluded at 10 o'clock amidst intense excitement. The Democrats made a manly and persistent fight ag.iinst time which, as the hour of adjournment approached, scared Republicans to Dolph for fear of losing an election. As the ballot pro gressed and it was seen that Mitchell's friends were voting for Dolph cheer upon cheer rang through the hall. When the re?ult was announced Sena tor Dolph was called to tho platform, introduced, and warmly welcomed by tho audience. He returned thanks in a short and appropriate speech. Mr. Mitchell was called for and made a short speech and was voiecferously cheered. The joint convention then adjourned. The senate and house held short sessions and closed up business in hand and then adjourned sine die. Speaker McHride " expressed his thanks to the members of the house for the courtesy and consideration extended by them during the session. Mr. Ison tendered thanks in behalf of the Democratic members fur gentlemanly and impartial treatment they had received at the hands of the speaker. All then crowded aruitnd the desk and took leave of Speaker McBride with warm congratulations. Senator Dolph was serenaded and afterward held an impromptu reception at the Chemekotn parlors, when he was warmly congratulated by numerous friends. Champagne flowed liko water and universal joy reigned. The Last Ballot.

Cqnsumptiou in its early stages is readily cured by the use of Dr. Pierce's "Golden Medical Discovery," thouqh, if the lungs are wasted no medicine will effect a cure. No known remedy possesses such soothing and healing influence over all scrofulous, tuhercu lotis, and pulmonary affections as tho "Discovery." John Willis, of Elyria, Ohio, writes:. "The 'Golden Medical Discovery, docs iwsitivcly cure con sumption, as, after trying every other medicine in vain, this succeeded." Mr. Z. T.

Go and see the snail," said the captain, as he bent over and rang the slowing bell for Tho Dalles. Some time after I saw tho "snail," and a most ingenious, successful, de testable engine of destruction it was. Tho owner had admirably planted it j just above the Upper Cascades, on the river, the south bank being at that point almost impassable to the fish. It was placed just where the swift edge of the current makes an inviting eddy, through which the salmon must natu- rally "run" on their way up stream. Here tho current was about eight feet deep. There salmon never swim lower than four feet below the surface. Erected over what would be the entire width of tho "run" was a huge frame. Suspended inside this an immense wheel revolved, so adjusted on pul leys as to rise and fall with the changing depth of water. Upon the spokes or arms of this wheel, eight in number, were fastened as many wire nets, each thirty feet in diameter, loose and baggy and movable, resem bling in appearance the pouch of a pelican. The current itself is the force which turns the wheel, like an undershot, Wry slowly it noes around. Tho great seonp nets spread 1-zily around the water, one after auothor, at just the depth where they are most fatal. Their arms almost pause and float motionless through the stream, But, though slowly, the great wheel, called from this motion the "snail," does move, and with just the right tardiness, for as the nets emerge from the water they are so filled with the struggling prey that Mr. Williams, owner of one of the wheels, pro nounced 800 an average catch. At tho proper angle above, the net is turned upside down. It contents are dumped along tho arm of the wheel to what might be termed its hub,striking which they are rebounded along a trough to the bank. It is a stirring but cruel sight, for thore are many small and un marketable fish in every "haul." Tho theory is that these are returned to the water and live, but it is like the "returns of tho killed and wounded" after a battle so stunned and unined aro they that but few survive. The wheel presents a busy scene, and tho profits must be enormous; for tho simple contrivance costs about $400, and requires but half a dozen attend ants. There ate four of these wheels on the, river, and a gentleman engaged in the fishing business informed mo that the calculation was they gcaught about half the salmon that go up. There is a wheel on Bradford's Island, above Bonneville, the work of which has become so notorious (not merely killing merchantable fish, but in so doing destroying a dozen times as many of a size as yet too small for commerce) that the public press has demanded its suppression. But all these wheels, as has been said, arc tho production of a brain which aims to live without work." Probably from 2,500 to 8,000 salmon (for the pro prietors of the wheels aro very chary about giving actual figures), largo and small, are caught every hour, night and day of the week, save from Saturday to Sunday night. Compute the amount. I know of one actual catch of 0,-100 salmon in a day large fish, suitable for the canneries. An experienced fisherman stated it as the result of his observation that about one in ten of those caught were used. Even in the number used, packed and sent down in barrels, one wheel kept tho largo cannery at Warrendale busy all through the season, and then the cannery couldn't tako care of all! " Looking at the descending stream of half dead fish literally "broken on the wheel," I could not but regard the question for a moment in the light of an angler and an economist. Meanwhile, day and night tho "bar barous and murderous" (I aiu using an intelligent fisherman's phrase) "snail" wheel is kept going, and the salmon are literally corralled by mil lions in the very haunts where they go to bring forth their kind.
