AN OREGON INDUSTRY.
There Is an Industry In Oregon which
has reached quite a proportion that Is
but little thought of by the majority of
people, and that Is the trade in Oregon

vertisement which appears In one of

In view of the fact that there wns nl

duty of the chief engineer to attend to
the alarm system (for which he Is en
titled to receive a fair compensation),
and further declaring It a misdemeanor
for any other person to tamper with or
Interfere In any manner with the alarm
system, it. would seem; that this latter

SALMON NESTS.
It Is estimated that of the salmon
that go up a stream to spawn only
three per cent get back to salt water.
Nature seems ta have exhausted Itself
In spawning, and though so weak that
they can scarcely wiggle they still re
main with the head up-stream, and if
they survive are carried on the cur.
rent to salt water. When seeking t
place to spawn the female makes an
oblong nest In the gravel about 12 or 14
Inches long and there deposits the
spawn. Both the male and the female
stand guard over the spawn until
hatched, fighting off salmon trout,
suckers and other fish that prey upon
the eggs.

THE BICYCLR AGE.
It seems to us that the age of the
bicycle will be an age of improvement
In a great many directions. The bi
cycle has not yet become a. perfect ma
chine, 11 cost Is altogether too high
but it will not be very long before bet
ter wheels are made and more reason
able pilces prevail. It will not always
be necessary for the rider to bow him
self up as he propels the machine, nor
to pay fancy prices for his wheel. In
yentlorv is very busy on all- lines re
lating to bicycles, and In a very short
time comfortable and healthful ma
chines will be made for the multitude.

INTERESTING TO FISHERMEN.
In reply to Inquiries from fishermen,
Mr. H. D. McGuIr?, fish and game pro
tector, states that there is no law In
this state requiring fishermen to pay a
license for the neta they use. He knows
of no law giving fishermen any right
to use 15 feet of land along the bank of
the river where they fish for building
net racks on or any other purpose. It
Is required that fishermen shall be cltl
zens of the United States, or to have
declared their Intention to become sjich
one year prior to engaging In the fish
Ing business, and also that they have
been actual residents of the state for
six months. Oregonian.
