' It seems a mutter of impossibility
1 for the canncrs to pay $1.23 for sal
i mon in the face of the present out
look. Unfortunately it is equally im
possible for the gill-net fishermen to
J make anything like decent wages at
' anything" less, it the same number
of boats run on the river this season
' that ran in lSsi).
I Thus the situation is a ditlicult one
to both side. There is a natural de
sire of the canncrymeu to utilize the
, expensive plant that lies idle, anyhow,
' eiirht months in the year, and there is
I the actual necessity on the part of the
fishermen, for some of them at least,
to go to work and earn a subsistence
for themselves and thoe dependent
on them. Some destitution is re
ported among dwellers on the banks
of the Columbia, at Coffin Rock and
elsewhere, and the Union has extended
assistance to several who were in want
of the barest necessaries of life.
There is but one direct solution to
the problem, and at the risk of af
fording tiresome but well meant ad
vice. Tin: AsToniAX repeats that the
Oregon will arrive here this morning J oniv thing that can be done is to cut
for the purpose of buying a suitable j down the number of boats. Then mat-
Among the passengers arriving last
evening on the steamer S. G.
Reed from Portland, were A. L.
Horner and E. S. Alexander,
who are said to be here in the
interest of the railroad. A representa
tive of Tnx AsTonrAX interviewed
them at them at the Occident hotel,
and was kindly received. Mr. Alex
ander was rather quiet, but Mr. Hor
ner is a pleasing conversationalist, and
quite entertaining.
He is connected with the Northern
Pacific and located at Tacoma, but in
sists that their visit here is in no way
official, but simply to get away from
business for a while, enjoy a pleasure
trip, and see this section about which
thev hear so frequently in Tacoma
such interesting accounts.
When the reporter presented the
advantages of Astoria, in regard to the
largest slnp3 or steamers discharging
or receiving ireigui at our wuarvos.
and the great convenience it would be
were a through line of railroad con
necting here, Mr. Horner was much
interested, and believes that it is only
a question of time when ships will
connect here with railroads and thus
be enabled to load and unload full
cargoes here instead of now going to
or coming from Portland with part of
the cargo and having to use barges to
unload or take on the balance here as
they arrive or depart.
The eentlemen co over on the Gen.
Can by this morning, will visit Shoal
water bay, also forts Cauby and Stev
ens and the government jetty.
Judging from Mr. Horner's knowl
edge of pile work, its cost, durability
of piles and the action of the teredo on
them, it is safe to infer that he must
have had considerable experience in
the construction of wharves, piers,
trestles aud bridges. Mr. Alexander
is interested in water works and the
water supply of cities and towns.
The gentlemen will remaiu iu this
vicinity for a few days, and propose
investing in real estate if it is not held
at figures above its value. It is very
likely that they are hero for the pur
chase of land, and if so, it is doubtless
for the Northern Pacific, with a view
of the extension of the lines of that
road here, or over on the Washington
side.

This wonld not be a panacea for the

would reduce friction and give the

injurious effect which their ill-advised
action havo upon the honest endeavors
of all other fishermen, who are trying to
obtain fair and living wages, not alono
for themselves but for these Bruno men
also, who havo been undermining us, by
selling fish below established prices. If
any such there be, into whose hands this
circular letter rnay come, wo ask them in
the name of the sanctity of labor, in tho
nanio of hundreds of honest, hard work
ing fishermen, to slop this kind of work
at once, and to join us in our struqelo
to obtain living wages; and while this
contest is being waged, let each and
every fisherman bear in mind that it is
for his individual good that this battle
is being fought. Nowadays when corpor
ations combine into groat and gigantic
trusts for tho purpose of robbing tho la
boring masses, let us, too, who labor on
tho rolling waters of Oregon and Wash
ington, clasp hands and make tho battle
of each the battle of all. Again wo re
quest each and every man to abstain
from fishing for tho "Portland markets,
and to use his individual influence in
such a manner that others also will ab
stain. Do this, comrades, and victory is
ours, and no power or combination of
canners, fish dealers or speculators can
stay our triumphant, onward march to
complete victory. Do otherwise, and if
in years hence, you are compelled to fiBh
for f0 cents per fish, don't blame
anyone but yourself for it. However,
we are convinced that the hardy
fishermen of the Columbia and
Willamette rivers are not that kind of
men, but that you will stand by us until
this contention is passed and the noonday
sun of complete victory shall once moro
shine upon us. In conclusion let us say,
that "The Union expects that every man
will uo his duty."
Write to us and let us know what is
going on in your vicinity. Do your duty
comrades and we must and shall win.

thence by steamship to Hamburg and
thence by steamer to St Prtersburg.
Tho salt will bo extracted from the

then be canued and put on the mar

the payment of the heavy duty on

Just as she reached the water, A. L.
Fox broke a bottle of champagne over

known as the " J'. Elmore'. This

A (Jonil Story Kivm .1. 15. Montpmirry.
Mr. J. B. Montgomery has been
somewhat indisposed since his return
from a three months' visit east, a few
days siuce, and hasnotbecn out much.
He is much pleased with the new hotel
and says he has seen no building dur
ing his trip so pleasing in appearance,
so elegant in appointments, and so
perfectly arranged for the convenience
of the traveling public as The Port
land except the Auditorium in Chi
cago, which is said to have cost S'3,000,
000. Mr. Montgomery says the story go
ing the rounds of the papers in regard
to his offering wine to Speaker Reed
has been garbled. The facts in the case
are, that, wishing to let a number of
his friends know what a Chinook
salmon was like, he sent out. here
for a couple. He then invited his
friends to dinner, and had placed be
fore them a fine forty-pound Colum
bia river fish. There was quite a
parly present, among them speaker
Reed, the members of the river and
harbor committee, and congressmen
from Illinois, Penusylvania,JCalifornia,
etc The guests greatly enjoyed the
luscious Chinook, and Colonel Hen
derson, chairman of the committee on
rivers and harbors, jokingly remarked
that he should hereafter feel bound to
oppose all appropriations for the im
provement of the Columbia, for fear
the salmon might be destroyed by the
improvements.
Speaker Reed, who was sitting by
Mr. Montgomery, was asked by him if
he would take wine.
''Oh! certainly,'' was the reply.
"I was a little timid abonl asking
yon," said Mr. Montgomery, "knowing
what stale you came from."
"Oh," said he. with his inimitable
drawl, "we are different iti our state
from the people of Kentucky; we
never carrv our habits out of the
stale."
The point of tho allnsiou lies in the
fact that only a few days before, a
judge from Kentucky had shot a man
dead with his wXo.--iheynuian, 10.

Her's is a sad mission, she having come
to make an appeal for executive clem
ency in the case of her son, Clinton
Pennington, who is sentenced to be
hanged at Baker City within a few
months for the murder of a fellow
man. This is the case in which a man
named Hamm was joiully indicted
with Pennington for the murder,
and after Pennington was con
victed Hamm's indictment was
nolle prossed. Being indicted
on the same charge Hamm was not
permitted to give testimony iu the
trial of Pennington, and partially on
this ground a new trial was asked.
The request was refused and the cause
anno beforo the supreme court, where
it met n like fate. Mrs. Pennington
is an old woman, whose heart is break
