We understand from Fish Commission' er McGuire, who Is mow in (this city, Miat the hatchery on We Upper Clackamas River Is being pult Into condition as fast as possible and Phut during this meek the raeku wilt be pCJaced in- the stream. This should enable the eggs of the present gear's salmon to be hatched at the sta tion by the middle of next month, and It is n'ot too much iti a.y that ten millions oi young osn wan roe Bern on ineir wi to the sea this year. If matters are ar ranged o as to obtain a clear stream, wlflhout an obstruction of any character, from J to mouth to the $toce -where the hutdhery la situated. It is believed by ft targe number of cannerymem tOiab the even else and qual ity of the present year's run of Chinook filmon Is aititplibutalbl to tine hatching In 1301 of nearly six million eggs from the old Clackamas hatchery, omd thai their theory of the return, of fish four years after they are hatched, into tihCs river, is proven to be correct. It Is very proba ble indued that Uiey are right, and, it such Is tSie, case, what vast potslWlllUs are opened up for the future of the salm on industry of tihe Columlbla, It has been estimated that, last year, only a million and a half of Chinook eataion were caught. Take the Clackantas haitchery, witih its capacity Cor handling and turn ing out ten million Chinook per annum, year in and year out, and U seems to us as If every other phase of the bus In tag pales Into Insignificance beside pile Innovation.' which If properly and care fully handlevl, will yield a rich ami wel come harvest tor future generations, and provllds a perpetual source of revenue and fame for the whole state of Oregon. That one man, by the exercise of a little (nifluernce and wire pulling, thouM be abli to bartd In the road of such benefits, and to deliberately imperil the success of a project ao vast and so full of import ance to everybody, seems on the face of it to be iMoulouls. But It Is a fact, rev. erthedess. Mr, H. E, Cross, a member of past tesWatures, and a well-known cltl sen of thla Mate, la the individual we re. fer to, Aoroes the dackamaa river, on this vide of It, he had constructed and operated for some years a "dam." This contrivance . while namJntUly four feet high, la by reason of Its peculiar con struction, really, more of an impediment than many tlx feet darns, and contrary to the dtlaitu'tes of 'the state, In flat viola, tlon and defiance of all laws, it is un broken by any fishway. Not only that but the law provides that It to unlawful for fishermen to cart their nets within 600 feet below, or 200 feet above any fish way. The fact that the dam belonging to Mr. Orow Is free from anything of the kind, gives fishermen the opportunity ot mot only defeating Hlhe spirit of the law but of actually sMnging their nets across the top of the dam, which they do con. tlnually during the fishing season, Here :s an absolute blockade, to all intents and purposes a stone, wail, preventing the Journey lof the salmon up th Clackamas Illver, and endangering every prospect Mint the new hatchery holds forth. The few thousands of dollar subscribed by tihe dajinerymen of the Columbia foi the erection of this haiidhery Is a mere bagaitelfe compared with the benefits that will accrue in the next few years, and it is Worth while that, If needful, thousands more should be spent in order that their ultiimsuU object shall not be defeated. Mr. Cross by promise after promise has stance- off the Inevitable long enough, and it Is now time t'hatt he be compelled to make his word good or else that his tit Hi dim be entirety d'emolbhod without less of time. He has 'been treated alto gether too lenlenlCy in this matter by the authorities and we look to Fish Commls. flonvr McOutrey who from the flrai has been an ardent advocate of the new hutclrery, to compel him to build a Ash: way Immediately or else to do his duty and arrest him without giving him the opportunity. The imperilling of what imay prove to be Uhe future Ufa of the Columbia Rivet salmon lnduutry, by a man seemingly without sense or the ability to exercise ;t, cannot be allowed for a moment. Th&re are Jwltpe In Oregon fearless enough to interpret 'the law rrepectlv of whom it hurt, a nil to these Judgta the maater ought to be presented without de lay.

A prominent professor in one cf the big universities of New England has wi It ten to the Boston chamber of commerce regarding the sMver question as follows: "The present free coinage craze is as old as the days of Jack Oade, when his followers hoped to bring on the millen nium by making the "pint measure hold two pin-is, and the two-penny loaf -sell for a penny.' It's descendant today want 60 cents' worth of silver to pass for a dtollar. The sophistry is aU the more apparent when tt is remembered that free silver does not mean an unlimited de mand for that metal, but only an un limited supply. "Mexico has free coinage of sliver. "Mexico is on a silver basis. "The wages In Mexico in mining and agriculture vary from 10 cents to SO cents a day in Mexican money, which Is from t to 15 cents in United States "Th avMtte for farm labor a day In Mexico is w cetMs in iiex can money, vr 10 cents In United States money. "If free silver can raise prices, why does H not raise the prices of wages in Mexico." . RUSSIA'S WATER TRAFFIC. The New York Railroad Oaete says: "Very full statistics of the movement of freight by waiter in Russia are colkcted and published by the government. The rlvere of Russia are Important, and canal connections are made which supplement them. The grain and flour movement by water has decreased rapidly, having been, in tone: 1S89 .... 2,725,200 1 191 2,194,200 1890 2,495,800 1 1893........ 1,658,800 In 1889 the quantity was equal to the weight of 90,000,000 bushels of wheat, and nearly five-eights of It was carried on the Vtolga, whuoh Is navigable for nearly 2,000 miles and has onwtrlbutary branch, the Kama, navigable for nearly 1,000 miles. It Is on this Stream where the chief falling off In the shipments have taken place, and it is said that the navi gation of the stream Is becoming more d.mcudt than formerly, but there Is a decrease on, nearly aU the streams. In 1892, of the total water shipments, ex clusive of wood and timber (which make up five-fights of the whole), more than one-third was petroleum and Its products, and very little more was grain and flour. Next comes salt, while of coal only 90,000 tons were carried by water." IT IS AN INJURY TO ALL. Thie Merohanlt'e Reiview of NeW York City eays In Its last lemie: "It is ot the utmost importance that the canners should give uhs mutter of honest label, lng their eany and conaraiut attention, for they all suffer whe.ni a consumer Is swindled. If a customer in -a grocery store gei.s dwindled on coffee, tea, but ter or cheese, he doesn't stop the use of the article, but simply changes h.s grocer. If ho gets a bad can of vegetables or fruits, nine times out of ten he will throw tihe blame on the cannier and stop eating canned fooda of any kind. Hence, the e.'Jtlre industry suffers vicariously, whereas In tho ca3 of the staple grocer ies the retail distributor is made the vic tim." THE RETURN OF COMMON SENSE. Philadelphia Record.

The birds beneath my window, Every sweet spring morn, Wake me with their carolling,. Just as early dawn. They give a (morning concert; Methinks I hear the tune, Which every boy and girl should sing - Morning, night amdl noon. ''My country, 'tis of thee," they sing; In fancy oft I hear That famous song about our flag The Yankee's heart holds dear. The little flowers lisp It, "Long may it wave," They mean, the star-spangled banner, On the echoolhouse over the way. And when they droop their heads at night, This is the flowers' prayer: "O Ood, please guard the dear old flag, On. the wee red school over there." We love our star-spangled banner, It keeps our hearts from sin, Long may It wave, o'er land and sea, As the flag of our countrymen. MiARION ISRAEL. A SOLDIER'S MEMORIAL.
