The Scarcity of Salmon. in conversation yesterday with a gen tleman largely Interested In tha salmon packing business, on the subject of the canning situation, a reporter of The Astorian asked the question "Do you simply consider this an oft year for fish, or do you think the supply is dlmin Ishlng steadily?" "Well," said the gentleman, "the views of canners vary, Some are dla metrically opposed to others In their ideas as to the cause of the present scarcity, The failure of the usual big July run to materialize has rather in clined some to the belief that the bus lness at the hatcheries has not been conducted on a sufficiently extensive scale, and that the supply Is materially diminishing, Then, again, there are others who express themselves as cer tain that this is simply an off year and that the pack of 1894 wW be up to the usual standard, In my opinion no one can say with certainty what the cause of the scarcity is; we can only indulge In speculation and hope for the best, "Here Is a letter which' I have just received from a San Francisco corres pondent who has long been Interested in the canning business, in which the opinion Is ventured that unless radical changes are made nrtne present fishing laws, the salmon supply of the Colum bla will become exhausted in course cf time. While' there will, doubtless, be many who will not agree with my cr" respondent in his views, the following will be read with Interest, and I rhall be glad to glve.lt to '. e Asrlnn for publication. The gentleman says; "We can only draw one conclusion from the small pack of the Columbia this season, and that Is, that the river is fished out, and that fish wheels, traps and seines must be prohibited in future If the salmon canning industry Is to re vive. If the powers that be would adopt Blmilar laws to those enforced in British' Columbia, salmon In tho Co lumbia would rapidly increase In num bers. I have repeatedly said since last fall that I believed the pack of the Frazer river would exceed tnat of the Columbia for 1893: I btill believe It, and believe, the same will ba t'.ie case In 1894. .Traps,, seines and wheels should be abolished i rivers, as ;hey capture large and small tleh, preent lng the latter from reaching maturity. The size of meshes of gill aets should be regulated by law, and fishing ex cept with hook and line prohibited above tide water.' " A GOOD WORD. Mr. J. J.

Not by favor, hot hy merit aloue, will we mnintain nnd iutrreiso rur nnrivnllt d reput ition. f Bi prices will not do in these times, whpn even the wealthy cannot nflbrd to waste Uteir nioney and the poor require double duty of every dollar and every pnnnr, " ' Aa onr prices change with every sale, it will he imiio. sihlo lo give qnot.ttionp, but it will bi onr aim to name figures that will compel you iu self-defeDse to buy of n. We deal in good goods, not trash, and believo the masses will patronize the house that sells the l eUuro Is for tho least money. - . Among our daily arrivals we shall place before oar people some hmdi-lid -es that Are positively beyond the whisper of competition, comparison or monopoly; prices that will teach you la the silent logic of truth Ih difference between dealing with live acd derd men, between the ensh nnd credit sja'em, Letts e n the i i"lt and the wrong way. Hence we throw out among the mrssea these rpecialties these matoWees gols aud matchless price? 1 check the insane and criminal prnotice of wa'iip; n oncy for the paltry consideration of a little credit. Who can tell the wa6te of money when yon get yonr goods of honFes that buy and fell on hnn time?

Upon our counters will be thrown, day after tiny, new arrivals. In panic prices, from houses that collapsed, -others that will go down tomorrow, aud still others who throw out these sacrifices in vain hopes to outlive the storm. . From such sources as these we bny our goods, and the house that wants the trade of the people must beyond these Bdvanccd lines, must beat these prices or go down, for if there is honor in man or virtue in good goods at low prices we mean to be masters of the situation the live pioneers who dive down to rock bottom. We shall answer such nnnnswornble arguments as no house can match; leaders and specialties at quota tions that no other can offer; stern and stubborn fuels that will level your head on the subject of genuine bar gains. . Hard luck-and harder times pinch some high toned old concerns. They must have money to meet the in evitable note tomorrow'. They nil know we hnve ihe cash the hard and solid cash and a thousand will buy double the value, and we o;in offer goods at figures away below the regular wholesale jobbers.
