they can dispose of, to put it into

TEE SALMON SEASON OP 1883
But thirteen days of the present
fishing season remain, and there is not
tho remotest probability that in tho
minds of any ono of the thirty-eight
canners exists any desire to fish be
yond the limit prescribed. Indeed, it
is a question what the inducement is
to can now, except it be the sudden
influx and correspondingly low price.
Many of the canneries contomplate
closing, and it would seem as though
nothing but tho force of habit kept
them running this week. It is proba
ble that the close of the present week
will see ihe end of the season as far
as canning is concerned.
The present season has been most
singular in every respect. Starting
with an unprecedented amount of
gear, with a most unfavorable market,
an inability to effect satisfactory
sales, and a general belief in a short
catch, the canneries havo throughout
been in a most unsatisfactory posi
tion. Tho price of fish was set at tho
start at a figure considerably in ad
vance of tho price paid last season.
Tins had the effect of bringing up suf
ficient fishermen from the Sacramento
to catch during May and Juno all
that came into the river; during these
months an attempt was made more
than once to lower the prices, those
who had their all in the business being
unable to see how the high price of
the raw material and the low price of
the marketable article left any margin
for profit. From seventy-five cents
to one dollar w:is paid for fish, and all
that has been packed up to recent
ly, cost, on an average, ninety cents a
fish.
Up to June loth it was believed by
many that the pack would not exceed
400,000 cases: probably it would bo
just as well, taking everything into
consideration, had events made good
the prophecy. But the increased
number of canneries and the extraor
dinary diligence manifested in catch
ing the fish ran the figures up rapidly,
so that on the 1st of this month, there
was 3-10,500 cases reckoned as being
put up; the pack for the season of '82,
to same date being reckotied at 292,-
912. From the way the salmon have
been coming in since the 1st inst.,
more especially during the last week,
it is evident that the pack will be fully
up to last season's figures; should tho
canneries all run to their full capacity
to the 1st of August, this seasons pack
will exceed that of 'S2.
It is not their intention. Tho gen
eral idea seems to be to fill all the cans
on hand, or at least to use up all the
tin plate in stock. Several of the
canners have refused iish this week,
except to a certain limit. Other,
who are short of cans, take a specified
number, and when they are disposed
of spend the remainder of the day in
making cans.
Tho extraordinary run of this
month has not been equaled in size
and numbers since 1879. It has been
no uncommon thing for fishermen to
bring in a hundred to the boat, and
of course, the price at once fell. Since
Monday, fish have boon selling at
figures far below what would have
been looked upon as a fair price
twenty days ago. Thirty cents, and
from that to fifty, has been the figure,
and on yesterday's steamerwent alargo
crowd of fishermen who refused to
catch t those prices.
The state of affair is very unsatis
factory. A man who has invested a
arge amount of capital, and who has
been tilling nis cans with ninety cent
usii nil the season, can not fuel very
complacent over matters when they
come swarming in now m such num
bers as to exceed the capacity of tho
canneries to dispose of them, and at
tho same time the question in his mind
whether it is best to keep on even on
thirty cent fish, or to knock off alto
gether, and quit for the season. Wc
do not wliolly agreo in tne opinion
that the knowledge that thero is an
unusual pack on the Columbia river
this season is going to koep tho price
of fish down. The market for salmon
both in this country and in England,
depends, of course, primarily, on the
price at which it leaves the house of
the retailer, but it depends in a
greater degree, upon tho demand. In
tins particular, fortunately tor our
staple, the demand is a growing one.
A good many exaggerated reports
have been made concerning the largo
stocks now on hand in England.
These stocks aro not as largo .-is repre
sented, and it will be the 1st of No
vember before this season's pack
reaches England. The large percent
age which, this season, goes on con
signment, renders this an important
item in its final disposition. Of
course to those who have male tales,
the matter is final.
The present result of the season
that is now closing will have great in
fluence on future business. Itdemon-
strates the fact that tho salmon are
not "civiug out," for no bigger or
better salmon have ever been caught
in thn PnlnmV, ,,, m nnn- ionri'trr
up stream to spawn. It will tend to
legitimize the business and make it
partake more of tho nature of usual
lines of trade than has heretofore
been characteristic The time has
gone by when a man could mate a
fortnnu iu one- season on the Colum
bia river, but the time will never be
when by the same care and diligence
applied to ordinary branches of trado.
a man cannot make money. That the
business is now overdone
is evident.

It has been stated in the nevvnnK.'rs
and repeated on the streets, that I wo of
tlie parlies who wen', as wo belieav
justly, llojised by Ihe citizens" commit
tee, were Italians, ami (jemx or tintt na
tivity ourselves, wc decidedly object to j
navins our countrymen accused of a
crime for which they are in no-wise re
sponsible. We have taken pains to as
certain the names and nativity of the
castigated individuals, and wo have
found, and wish the public to know.
that they icerc nor Italians. J c has be
come a common practice, to a.riuule to
our countrymen almost every crimp
committed on the Columbia river: this
has undoubtedly been thoughtlessly
done, without considcrhi" the injustice
of it. Xow we, (by which is meant the
Italians ot iiiiscomniunity,are as much
in favor of maintaining the law as the
best and most law-abiding citizens,
among which wo claim to -rank, and
when any countrymen of ours is guilty
of any: crime let him be punished for it,
and you will find us ever ready to as
sist in maintaining the Jaw ;uid pre
serving or ler, but before any crime is
charged against us, be sure that we are
responsible for it.
Wc think we are justified in saying,
that a very small per coinage of the
crimes committed in this com
munity have been committed by Ital
ians, although a large percentage there
of has been charged to them, the in
justice of which we keenly leoj, and of
