EniTOi: Astekiax:
According to your report a few days
since of a meeting of individuals on the
trap question, it would appear as though
traps were very offensive.
As the officers of that meeting and as
sociation aro not and never wero fisher
men, it might be fair to presume that its
object whs to acquire n littlo notoriety
for tho next city or county elections.
Particular! so, as some who took -part
in the meeting are reported to be owners
in imp. But waiving all these mat
ters it is well to consider the trap side of
the question. There are but three or
four trans on the Oregon side of the Co
lumbia "river and n great majority of
these have been in operation for years
almost or quite as long as tho cannery
business. But tho talk when reduced
to particulars, is against tho traps on
the opposito phoro in Washington ter
ritory. Tho paramount use of the river 13 for
commerce, and anything which inter
feres with that, whether it bo trap or gill
net, is a nuisance and liable to abatement
by indictment in the courts and trial by
jurv. The right of fishing belongs to tho
trap man as Well as to the net man, but
like all other right that individuals en
joy, they are to bo exercised with due
consideration for the same righta of
neighbors, and any undue interference
with the rights of another can be regulated
and adjusted in tho courts tho same as
differences occuring on land, so that it
does not seem necessary to make incen
diary or communistic speeches or hold
town meetings on the subject.
The traps, when successful, have proved
to be a cheaper method of taking the
fish and less destructive of life. It is re
ported, though I think it exaggerated,
that forty-eight men lost their lives on
the bar last year fishing with nets. No
one was reported lose wnue iinnunng
trap3, though it is reported that one or
two net men got foul of a trap and per-
ifahed. Whether any ono knows that the
latter perished by reason of the trapor
only drifted into the trap after drowning
I do not know.
If a law is needed to protect the usher-
men's lives it should be that no one should
fish below Astoria andKnappton.
It has been claimed that tho dragging
of nets injured the bar at tho month of
the river and if the engineers in charge
of the river imrovements are to inquire
into tho obstructions of the river caused
by traps, it might be well to consider the
dragging of tho nets also and recom
mend that net lismng not up auoweu ne
Iow the places named.
On all tho lakes and rivers east, traps,
or as they are generally called there,
"pond nets," are used aiid have nearly
superseded the gill net system.
The Columbia river cannot longer af
ford to do business in a manner that i3
behind the age. It has got to keep up
with tho improvements of the times.
It is now, get fish cheaper or stop the
packing of salmon. To cease canning
would throw the fishermen and canuers
both out of business and injure tho com
munity. Fish were caught up north last ear at
fifteen cents per case and sold at a profit
in tho United Slates nnder Columbia
river fish. The Columbia river fish is
hereafter to compote with cheap fish
from the north and also with cheap food
of the world.
The amount of salmon now put into
the'market make3it a common article for
consumption, not a rarity or luxury, and
the old prices will never be regained.
The cost of packing then mast bs nec
essarily reduced.
On an average n boat and gear costs
per annum three hundred dollars. The
services of two men nro required for four
months. Eight months service say, at
fortv dollars (and it would be difficult to
get fishermen at forty dollars per month
and they board themselves.) This
amounts to six hundred and twenty dol
lars. Their average catch is one thou
sand fish, which makes the cost per fish
sixty-two cent3. Three fish are required
for each case- of canned goods, conse
quently the cof-t of the raw fish per case
would be one dollar and eighty-six cento,
against fifteen cents from the north.
The price of cased Balm on is now far
below what Columbia river fish caught
by gill acts can bo packed for, and tho
caunera must have cheaper fish or close
their establishments and allow Iheir
largo investments to go to waste.
Better for oach fisherman to secure a
home on the bank and operate a trap
than to drown himself running a gill net
and bankrupt and force the salmon
packing from tho Columbia river.
The traps aro geuorally not in the way
of commerce or navigation, and do not
cause one-hundredth as muca trouble
and interruption to shipping as do tho
gill nets, if navigators are to be con
sulted they would say abolish unit nets
and build traps.
A trap may be so set as to interfere
with navigation, but this is tho fault of
its construction or location onlv. It is
not an objection to tho system.
Tho gist of the objection.- raised
against tho traps is that they aro a better
and cheaper way of taking fish. Tho
twino men do not like to lose tho sale of
two hundred and fifty thousand dollars
worth of thread per annum. The fisher
men do not wish to see a change in their
business blindly" honing that by a war
or some other way the money may bo
found to pay them for risking their lives
on tho bar drifting with gill nets.

A good joke. To'fall in love with a littlo

Now you think you can tell when a lady
paints, don't you?" he added, spinning a
little pink bo'x around between his fin

a paint brush or a towel. But they don't

don't use paint at all. They used to use

eTervbody could see it. To paint then
ranked high up in tho category of sins
and there wern't many who dared do it.
Now nine out of ten women add artificial
beauty to their complexion. Instead of
the old-fashioned paint they use powder.
They are pastile sketches instead of
