State Fish and.Oamo Protector Hol lister D. McGuiro arrived down from Portland yesterday to look into the matter of the violations of the fish and game laws. After a diligent search among the different places where It was known wild fowl and trout had been offered for sale recently, a couple of salmon trout were found and purchased, but on account of the dealer having been misinformed as to tho provisions of the law with reference to the protec tion of salmon trout, it is not thought likely that a prosecution will follow, Mr. McGuire has determined to prose cute to the extent of the law every of fender, having found that cautions were or no avail, in Portland not a trout nor a "boiled owl," nor a "chicken with out the legs," as the restaurant keepers are pleased to term pheasants and other game fowls, can be had at any price, ana Mr. Meuulre proposes to bring about a similar condition of affairs In this city and throughout the state.

The publication of tho list of alleged' lav-ova ,w. k,. .r ,j , . , tax-evaders by the Herald last Sunday luuunucs io oe a topic of prominence, and the error of the Herald is explained ueiow, as follows: Astoria, Or., Feb. 8, 189-1. suitor of the Astorlan: In last Sun- day's Herald there was published a list of delinquent taxpayers of 1890, and since the appearance of the article a number of persons have shown conclu sively that their taxes for that year had been paid. Inasmuch as I prepared the list of delinquents mentioned, it is but Just to explain where the data was ob- talned and the reason why the several lists were made out. The official assess ment roll of the year 1890 having dis appeared, I deemed it expedient that a delinquent list should be prepared in order that when published taxpayers having receipts could come forward and thus disclose any defalcation not disclosed by an examination of the Im perfect copy of the tax roll, no stubs of receipts or proper hooks of accounts be Ing found in the office of tho chief of police or city treasurer, showing either the amounts paid or the names of thosn paying. In my report to the city coun cil I fully explain this, the lists of de linquents for the years 18S6-90, including that copied by the Herald, being simply an arpendlx to the report and to be used at the discretion of the council in ascertaining, as above stated, the names of those who had. paid, but which the officials had not properly credited. The following extract from my report, now on file with the city auditor, will fully explain the matter: Taxes, 1890, As is well known, the official as sessment roll of this year was lost, thus leaving no authenticated reports for me to work upon. As charged by the aud itor to the collector of delinquent taxes on the books of the city, it appears that there was dulnquent the sum of $14, 002..43, Of this amount there has been returned to the city by the chief of po lice the sum of $8,000, taxes paid, but without specifying from whom It was received. From such documents as 1 have had access to, I am enabled to make an approximate delinquent list which I return herewith, Including, of course, the Sijm above mentioned, furthrr tind that there has been marked paid since November 11, 1890, when last payment was made, the sum of $70.63, received from the following. Respoot- iuny, ALFRED GIBBONS.' " follows a lst of the several amounts and the names of the parties from whom received, deluded in the $70.63 ahoye referred ta.) Iv may be Interesting to r.ote that Ex PL-rt Gibbons' report, with the exception or the appendix, was published in thi :oiumns of the pajly Herald in March or Apri of 1891, and the facts shown above were clearly shown In tho Herald at that time, "Snow Flake" Flour, claimed to be superior to all others, yet costing no more man inferior brands.
