THE DAILY ASTORIAN, ASTORIA, SATURDAY MORNING. JULY 21, 1894
THE FISHERY QUESTION.
The movement inaugurated by the As
torian, some weeks ago, for the protec
tlon of our salmon Industries, and which
movement was so ably and promptly
seconded by our worthy mayor and the
chambers of commerce of both Astoria
and Portland, has evidently stirred Sen
ator Mitchell to a perception of the Im
portance of the object, as appears from
the reply of Fish Commissioner McDon
ald to a recent communication ad
dressed him by that senator, and which
shows that Senator Mitchell has taken
hold of the matter In his usual energetic
manner. " Whether Senator Mitchell
succeeds In accomplishing anything at
the present! session or not, he Is entitled
to and will receive the thanks of his
constituents for his efforts In that re
gard. Mr. McDonald writes as follows:
"Under the present circumstances there
la no ideation on the Columbia river or
any of Its tributaries where we could
count upon-obtaining 5,000,000 eggs,
much less 100,000,000, unless possibly In
the neighborhood of Astoria, where It
would be necessary to utilize the fall
run of fish for the purpose of obtaining
efrgs." At this place no effective Work
coujd be done except by the hearty co
operation of the fishermen, and the defi
nite agreement with them In advance
as to the aid that they would render.
Under the existing regulations of the
fisheries, both lr. Washington and Ore
gon, It Is possible at any time for men
tlshlng to obstruct completely any river
and catch ail the salmon which may en
ter It. To Incur any expenditure for a
hatchery under these circumstances
would in my Judgment be unwise. j
"We havo a hatchery on the Clack
amas, and If this stream were unob
structed by nets or dams we would
have obtained, by diligent use of re
sources, probably 12.000,000 or 15,000,000
eggs. The present season we have had
to abandon work on the stream for the
reason that a dam has been erected
which is practically Impassable .for
salmon; and furthermore, the net f sh
ins below It Is so exhaustive that the
entire run of salmon is taken. This
condition will arise on any river where
there Is any considerable run of ealinon
sufficient to make It an object to under
take It, and as we can only contemplate
the establishment of hatcheries upon
rivers whera there H a considerable run
of salmon. It Is evident that at any time.
under the state luws of Oregon ana
Washington! as they now stand, the
usefulness of the hiit'.-iicry may 1 eri
tlrely destroyed.
"I fully reill-.i tho urint necessity
of taking proper steps to Improve the
salmon flshlmr of the Columbia river
The preliminary work which would Jus
tify expenditure by the general gnvcrn-
ment, must first be done by the states'.
The season of net fishing must first be
lestricted.. No not Ashing should be
permitted and no obstructions in the
way of dams allowed on the tributaries
of the Columbia where the government
may establish hatcheries."
.- The commlHsioner says that the nun
who would t employed on the Clack-,
amas has been sent to the Sandy river
to hold the salmon and collect the egg?,
but he has found that a fisherman has
erected a wheel nt a point where It Is
dcnlrable to work, which renders it en
liroly Impractical!. The central of the
stream can only be obtMned by paying
the person with the wheel io lake it
away. Mr. McDonald continue:
"Such Interferences will nrlse wher
ever we atteT.p; to go, and parties will
be found everywhere who will make It
a business to Interpose obstructions If
the policy Is one established of raying
them. I would advise that any appro
priation mode b. the government for
the erection of salmon-hatchlr.g stations
on the Columbia river should to accom
panied by tne proviso that no expen
diture is to bi mads on this account
until the states of Oregon and AVnshing-
ton have established such regulations in
regard to tha fisheries and such exemp
tion in reference to the streams as may
be in the Judgment of the United States
fish commissioner necessary. It is prob
able that we might be able to select
certain streams tributary to the Col
umoia in wnicn there is at present a
sufficient run of salmon for our pur
poses, and should the states by law
absolutely prohibit the use of nets In
such streams, or even the erection of
any obstructions whatever, we could at
a comparatively moderate expense in
the establishment of stations for the
collection of eggs, do an immense and
productive work for the Columbia river.
I should say that an appropriation of
$25,000 would be sufficient for the estab
lishment of such stations, but I do not
think It wise to incur any such expen
diture until the states interested , have
done their duty In the matter, and by
the exemption of certain streams ren
dered it possible to make such an ex
penditure productive when incurred."

A CHURCH RECEPTION.
Thursday evening there was quite a
gathering at the Swedish Lutheran
church. The church was handsomely
aecoratea with nowers ana evergreen
branches. The congregation had met to
welcome their new pastor, Mr. J. A.
Edlund. Rev. J. W. Skans, of Portland
opened the meeting by scripture reading
and prayer. The address of welcome
was made by Rev. J. J. Holkkat When
the speaker had taken his seat, the new
pastor made his response, and reminded
the congregation of the words of the
Psalmist, "He that putteth his trust In
the Lord shall never be put to shame.
Then followed a speech In English by
O. Olsson, D. D., president of Augustona
College and Theological Seminary at
Rock Island, 111. He expressed the wish
that the congregation would1 encircle
their new pastor with their prayers as
they had surrounded the pulpit and al
tar with flowers.
Dr.-Olsson Is an able speaker and can

man of high learning and has traveled
extensively, not only In' this country.
but also In 'Europe, and has given us
his observations on a Journey to Rome
in a large book that he has written
which Is intensely interesting from be
ginning to end.
In company with the other pastors he
went over to Fort Canby ahd Ilwaco,
and the reverend gentleman was en
thused with the scenery out there.
Friday at 12 M. he and Rev. Skans
left for Portland, where the doctor will
preach Sunday. Astoria might Justly be
proud of such a visitor. We would only
say: "Come again."

Blue Devils
The business man who says that ad.
vertising does not pay does not adver
tise. He is the one that always doubts
the prosperous trade reports he hears of
his competitor, who does advertise. He
sits In the back of his store, smokes his
plpo and wonders why he Isn't making
any money. He has the blues when he
should have trade. He not only lets his
neighbor get that neighbor's share of
the business, but a good part of his also.
He sees people whom he thought old
friends of his go Into SU competitor's
store and come out with bundles of
goods, when he has the same articles on
his shelves, and perhaps at lower prices
than they paid his competitor for them
Why is this so? It is because his com
petitor lets the public know in an In
telligent way through the local papers
what he has to sell and when he has It
. The successful advertiser looks after
his advertising space as he does his
clerks. He changes his ads. in such a
way the people are attracted by them:
He feels that co make money he must
be willing to spend some; that there Is
strong competition in all lines of busi
ness, and to get his share of the trade
he muaj advertise, and to do it in the
most skillful and Intelligent way. If he
