A Committee Appointed to Confer with tke Can n era. Pursuant to notice in Sunday's Asro bian, a largo crowd of fishermen and others assembled at the court house yes terday afternoon; the room was filled in a few minutes, there being more oataide than inside, so that tho meeting ad journed to Liberty Hall where at half past two tho meeting was called to order by Thos. Dealy,who in a few preliminary remarks stated the object of the meeting, which was to select a committee to con fer with the cannerymen regarding the price of fish. The meeting then elected m. Wil liams as chairman of the meeting. Mr. "Williams declined. C. H. Stockton was chosen and upon taking the chair stated that a secretary was to bo chosen. Thos. Dealy was chosen a3 secretary, after which the chairman asked for a free ex pression of views regarding the price of fish. The secretary offered the following resolution after saying that the common talk on tho street was that some cannery men were desirous of seeing the fisher men strike, that it was necessary to pro ceed with prudence and caution and keep strictly within the limits of judgment and moderation in whatever conclusions the meeting might decide upen: Wheueas, The fishing season of 1885 has commenced and thero seems to bo a misunderstanding about the price of salmon, and Whebeas. It seems to bo the wish of some of the canners that the fishermen should strike at this time, Whereas, Matters of this kind should bo properly adjusted by the parties in terested, be it Resolved, That a committee of twelve fishermen bo elected by this meeting whose duty it shall be to arrange matters with the canneries of tho Columbia riv er in tho following manner: 1. To invito the canners to a confer ence. 2. To propose to said canners to re duce tho boats on the river ono-half. 3. That the canners should pledge themselves not to take or purchase any salmon from any traps. 4. If the) concessions are made to go fishing. Mr. Dealy made a speech regarding tho relative situation between capital and labor, in which ho said that there were thirty-four fish traps in this vicinity, and said that that interested fishermen as much as anything else. He said that on one occasion a man brought to the Columbia.Canning Co. threo scow loads of fish which he offered for $25. After tho conclusion of his speech sundry re marks were made, tho first speaker, ltobt. Grant, urging that tho fisherman tako the matter in their hands and pull out the fish traps; his remarks meeting with applause. He thought the cannerymen couldn't afford to give CO cents but they could afford to give more than 45. Tho president thought that when the time cpme to do that there would only be a a few to do it and the rest would skulk; he didn't believe that was the way to talk and that tho association when it stepped outside the law was wrong. He recounted what had been done and stated that all that could be done was now do ing, and that overt aots were wrong and unjusimauiu. xlo counsel eu mat ia proper course was to confer with the cannerymen, but in noway to go outside tho law, and above all things to go slow and not do anything hastily that would make trouble and defer tho settlemont of the question. Mr. Dealy followed with a few figures regarding the cost of packing and the present price of canned salmon, showing that salmon was to-day selling at $3,70 a case. He then read the last letter sent by the president and secretary of the Co lumbia Fishermen's Association to Capt. Powell. Another speaker suggested that mod eration was better than force, and that legal measures would be better to adopt than to go blindly at work that might result disastrously, and urged the adoption of tho resolution read by tho secretary. Another speaker said there was no use fooling tho timo away; to mako the price sixty cents, and called for a resolution to that effect. It was then proposed that a contract be demanded from the cannery men to last through the season and that it be understood that tho canners bo made take fish at a regular price from tho gill net fishers. The president counseled that thuy hold together and not fritter away their strength in individual effort that could not be successful. "Ten cents all around" was the argu ment that the next speaker suggested be tho basis of a demand. The president then put the question. The resolution was adopted. Alter some more debate and sugges tions as to the composition of the com mittee, it was decided to have the follow fellow follew ing: llobert Grant, Stephen Butts, Jos. Hannan, Thos. Germain, L. Thompson, P. Johnson, Jno. Maltman, C. Stillman, P. Longhrey, A. Sanborn, Gus. Wilson, F. Ecklund, O. Carlson, P. Peterson, F. Whelan, E. Beck. On motion a collection was taken up to pay for the rent of the hall, after which the meeting adjourned. Immediately after the adjournment, tho committee met and elected Bobt. Grant chairman of tho committee. Af ter somo discussion the following was drawn up and furnished for publicatien: lhe Columbia river hshermen do here by respectfully invite the cannerymen of Astoria to meet a delegation of the fish ermen at the court house at 2 o'clock, Tuesday afternoon, tho 12th. And we hereby invite all fishermen to stay in for a day or two till the price of fish is settled. We are trying to raise ten cents. COVMXTTEB. Pioneer and Historical Society.

Tkreo Bad Burglars polns to St. Ilelens to Recelte Sentence. Sheriff T. C. Watts, of Columbia coun ty was at tho St. Charles yesterday, says the Oregonian of the 11th, with a pocket full of handcuffs. He takes down to St. Helens this morning three young men to be sentenced by Judge Taylor for bur glary. They are Edward Keil, of Astoria, aged 10, an ex-convict from Clatsop county for horse, stealing: Leslie Sher man, of Whitman county, W.T., aged 21, also an ex-convict for manslaughter; and James Edwards, of Baker county, aged 19, who was run out of eastern Oregon. The latter went to Astoria, where he met Keil, and they found employment in the fishery. Beingnatural born thieves, hon est labor did not agree with item, so they stole a fishing boat nnd ran u;j to Kalama, where they sold it. There they fell in with Sherman and the trio of beauties took a contract to chop a lot of wood near St. Helens. But chopping wood did not set well on the stomachs of these scoundrels, and they concocted a plan to rob tho house of M. Fisk, who re sides about seven miles from St. Helens. Mr. Fisk has extensive cattle interests in eastern Oregon and ho had just come down from that country and paid off some men in his employ, and it was sup posed that ho might have brought down considerable coin. On the evening of April 2Jth they started out to rob Mr. risk's house, but ascertaining that he had not gon3 back to eastern Oregon as they supposed, they determined to put off the job to i more convenient season and try for something easier. So they traveled along till they came to Daniel Newcomb's house. He happenod to be away from home so tho three bold burglars concluded that they would burgle the place. Thev broko in to tho house and stole some of Mr. New comb's clothes. Sheriff Watts was after the robbers early next morning but tho only clue ho could find was the heel of a footprint in the plowed ground near New comb's house. The rascals had carefully obliterated their tracks excepting this mark. Shortly after ho met Keil riding along tho road and thinking he might be one of the burglars told bim to dis mount and mako a print of his boot in the dirt. The young scoundrel turned red, then pale, and then said, "I did not break into tho house." "Who did?" said tho sheriff. "Sherman broke in and I held the candle," was tho reply. Keil was banded over to a deputy and Sheriff Watts then hunted up Sherman nnd Edwards. When they found that Keil had "sauealed" thev throw up tho sponge and wont and got tho clothes they had J stolen, un tne next aay tucy waivea ex amination and acknowledged theirguilt. They were brought up here and placed in tho county jail for safe keeping, nnd will to-day receivo sentence. SCHOOL EMEKTA1XMEXT.

Old packers now say that unless thero is somo marked improvement within ten days, the pack of 1885 will bo practically a failure. As usual tbo run shows marked variations in its strength and timo of continuance almost daily, whero in past seasons tho fishermen have taken 2,000 to 3,000 fish a day, they are not now taking less than as many bundred. Be tween the light run and tho increasing daily market demand, canners' supplies havo been cut down to a lino which must materially reduce tho pack unless thero is tome lmmeaiaie improvement iu iuo situation.

The city of Key West proper covers the western end of the key. It is densely set tled, and about as un-American as possi ble, bearing a strong resemblance to a West Indian town. The houses are of wocd, plainly built, and with a few ex ceptions, painted white. There are, I think, only tbrso brick building?, cer tainly not more than sir. Piiae s abound, and occasional .y some lattice work is seen, but there i; no attempt at decoration or display. Many of tllu bus iness houses have no sign?, nnd tin re is a general air of don't-care-whethcr l-sell-or-not about the shops. The houses ira of all Aizsa, jnmbSed up in the oJuest way, andauywhere baton the line of the street, lhe interior of each, block is filled up with one-story shautieg, accs.5 to which 13 had by giing up alle;.. through fences, or over someboJy elnVs yard. The population being 14.C0Q, land is precious. Lots are divided and sub divided, houses are built in yards and gardens are wedged in herj, "there nnd e- erywhere. facing sixteen ways for San day. Where there is no room for a houe they build a stable or a pigpen. :::' sprinkle chickens around in the corners. The richest people do not disdain to thus add from $3 to .$G a month to their income, rlthougli it destroys their privacy and disfigures their grounds. Tho streets are of good width, tolerably straight and passablv clean, Tho roadway is coral rock. There is no soil. What passes for sou is merely triturated coral, won derfully rich in phosphates, and mak ing an excellent fertilizer, but, by itself deficient iu fat. To gar den you must use a pick instead of a hoe. No vegetables are raised on tho key, and the vegetation is confined mainly to cocoanut trees. Here and there you will find a pino or an oleander, a star of India or a royal poinciana; but in the main there is a criminal lack of foliage The naturo of the population is thus shown. The key has been settled for fifty years; every tropical or semi tropical tree, shrub or flower known to man has but to bo planted to grow, and tho city is bare, hot and verdureles3. The colored folk drivo tho drays and hacks, act as porters and stevedores, and do the bulk of the heavy sitting around. Every body takes a turn at tho latter work, however, and thewholo community offers to tho historian tho most striking exam ple of people born tired. It is an edify ing spectacle to northern e3es to see a j or doing a pieco of work. Usually he moves like a snail. If you aro not par ticular you can live for soventy-five cents a week. A stick of sugar cane costs only three cents, bananas and oranges can be hooked from tho auctioneers, hominy is cheap and a string of fish can be caught from any wharf. For a shelter there is little need, save to keep off the rain, and it needs not a house to do tint. What a country for a trampl What a climate for tho poor! Eastern Corr. ilEJIOUIAL DAY.

The death-roll of years has added tens of thousands to'the half-million grave3 we left behind. The daily tolling bell, tho freshly knotted crape, tho lnufded drum, tho slow nnd solemn procession, tell how fast our com rades join tho silent ranks above.
