to hear tl.e liuay hum of machinery
and look out over the bay, literally cov

An effort was reported to have been
made by certain parties to run off of
Ihe river thoae fmhermen who wer not
naturalised, and It was also said that
a almllnr effort wn made a to non
union men. In conversation with a
gentlemen posted a to the naturalisa
tion laws, he said: "I am satlnflcd that
such an effort cannot be made success
fully. The greater number ot these
men are a good rltixen morally aa
those who have completed their first
papers. They are head of families,
and most of them have been here for
some length of time, and some of them
are property owner. For the moat
part they have neglected to take out
cltlienshlp papers, and thi I no tlm
to draw such a line."
Fish Commissioner McOulre, who
wa In the city Sunday, said that under
the peculiar circumstance It waa not
hi Intention to make any strenuous ef
fort, to enforce the Sunday closed law
nor the closed season.
The reports from up the river also
show a highly sRtlafuctory state of af
fairs. A gentleman write from Ska
mokawa: "The new that the canneries had
offered four and one-halt cents, and
the fishermen had accepted the offer,
was brought up on the steamer Queen
from Astoria about 10 o'clock Sunday
morning. The steamer wa met at the
dock by some of the fishermen, and
the new spread rapidly to the hotel
and home of the fishermen residing In
this vicinity, and the fact that fishing
wa about to commence, caused many
of them to feel happy, thus relieving
the destitution prevailing during the
Inat few month. While many of them
were not quite satisfied at the stated
price, they were, nevertheless, glad
that work was again at hand and em
ployment furnished to those who had
elected to remain Idle, firmly believing
the cannerymen could well afford to
pay the union price, until the strike
wa aettled, from which the community
had suffered so immeasureably. Qum
boots, lunch baskets, oil clothes, and
other fishing paraphernalia, were
quickly huddled together, a few min
ute after the Queen had landed, and
nets, sails and other rigging were
quickly taken from the cannery lofts
and placed In the boats. Men rushed
to the stores to procure the necessary
supplies, and genernl business activity
w as seen on every hand. Willing hands
soon had the sails raised, and with the
aid of a fresh up-stream wind the
little crafts were plowing their way
through the water bound for the toe
head about a mile above Cathlamet. In
loss than half an hour net were placed
In the water for the Arts time this
season,
"The fact that large numbers of
salmon were; known to be going up
Cathlamet channel caused the fisher
men to bestir themselves, and some
lively work wa done to arrive at the
head to have the first drift. Aa many
aa eighty large salmon were caught In
one drift, and as a consequence the
fishermen were well pleased, all looking
anxious.
"Warren' cannery here will com
mence operations today, and a busy
tlm Is expected for a few day. This
little town, and the river abreast of It
now present a striking appearance to
the depression and business stagnation
which hitherto existed. The rueful
countenances of th Inhabitant tliut
thi unfortunate atriko made posalbl
today looked with brightness to the
prospect for the future. The hope I
expressed that when next season roll
around a better market will prevail
and the canm-rymti) will be enabled to
puy the old price of five cent per
pound."
It wa reported late last ulght by
urn of the militiamen who were on
the patrol that the heavy run of fish
wa past, and that the catches during
the night wer light.
The larger part of th soldier and
the principal official under General
lii-ebe and Colonel Bummer left Hun
day evening on th steamer Harvest
Queen for Forlland. Many cltisen.
Including a number of ladle and little
girl, were at the di k to see them off.
Ilouquet of flower were presented to
the colonel, and that popular officer
responded to the glt of the ladle in
most graceful language, expressing hi
appreciation of their courtesy, and
stating that hi command would be
ever ready to answer to their call of

DEATH'S VICTIM.
One of Aatorla' Moat Popular Young
Married Women Laid Low.
At 10 o'clock laat, night Mr.. Albert
IMckards. wife of the well known chief
engineer of the Majusnlta, died at SL
Mary' Hospital. ,The new of her
death wa received with great sorrow,
as the lady wa well known and very
popular throughout the city. She leaves
twins, little girls, about five years of
age. Mr. Rlckard waa 23 year and
10 month of age. She wa a daughter
of Mr. Louis Iiartwlg, the well known
contractor, who ha been a resident of
the city for many years.
The deceased baa been sick about
Ave weeks, and a hrt time ago passed
through a severe aurglcal operation.
Only last week it was thought that
she would safely recover from It ef
fect, but Providence decreed otherwise,
and today another sad home Is added
to the long list. " Death )a gloomy
enough when It come to those who
have reached their three score and ten,
but wh"n the young are cut off before
the prime of life I reached, the Borrow

death if a young mother. None can
so well care for the little ones, as the
one who gave them birth. In such
case the sting la most acutely felt.
CAN'T NOMINATE TELLER,
Illinois Democrats Respect Him but
Cannot Consent to HI Nom
ination. Peoria, 111., June JI. Never before In
the history of Illinois politic has there
been a political convention as unique
a that to be convened tomorrow prom
ise to be. It will be called to order
without a single candidate for nom
ination for governor. Of course every
body says Governor Altgeld will be
nominated.
According to W. H. Hlnrichsen,
chairman of the Democratic state cen
tral committee, 96 per cent of the dele
gates to the convention have been In
structed for him. and others are solid
for him.
On the other hand, Governor Altgeld
a- he Is not a candidate. Several
month ago he even went so far as to
say that he would not accept the nomi
nation, but the Democratic leaders say
they will force him to accept. His
whole thought and talk has been re
garding the national convention to be
held In Chicago week after next. "It Is
the duty the free silver Democrats owe
to the so-called common people of this
nation," he said, "to carry their point
as to the financial plank. Whitney,
and the loud-mouthed goldbugs ot his
class, have never led a party to any
thing but humiliation or defeat during
the last thirty years."
Referring to Mr. Whitney's statement
that he believed the gold men would
control the party, the governor said:
"If the gold men control they will do
so by the use of arguments that have
a ring to them and a clink, as they
pass from hand to hand and the pock
et." State Chairman Hlnrichsen, speaking
of the talk that Senator Teller might
be named at Chicago, said that while
the silver Democrats had the highest
regard for him, not one of the hun
dred to whom he had talked, felt that
It would be wise to nominate him for
president.

on fire and water, of Its conference
with the water commission, was adopt
ed: To the Honorable Mayor and Common
Council of the. City of Astoria:
Gentlemen: W'e, your committee on
tire and water, having been Instructed
to confer with the water commission in
regard to the 32500, the commission
think the city should pay as hydrant
rental, beg to report the result of our
conference.
Though unable to receive any de
tailed statement of the affairs of the
water commission, we learn from them
verbally that their receipt for the
month of May were about 121'JO. Ex
pense of water commission per month.

plant, 3315; Incidental, estimated. 1315;
total, J1M133; showing a monthly sur
plus of receipt over expenditure of
3251.67.
The water commission claim they are
without fund and much needed work
to be done, that If allowed th 32500 It
should be used In said work, such as
taking up of old pipe, repairing road,
building fences, stone wall, etc., etc.,
and that the $2500, If allowed, will have
no effect on water rate. That no re
duction In water rate will be made,
thi year whether the city pay hy
drant rental or no. Therefore In mak
ing an allowance for hydrant rental
the burden of water consumer will
not be lightened. We further learn
from the commission that an Insuffi
cient amount of money wa borrowed
to construct the water works; that the
commission have used money received
from all sourec In the construction
w hich is the cause of the present deple
tion of their treasury.
I'nder the present condition of man
agement In the water commission we
recommend that no allowance for hy
drant rental be made, as an allowance
will burden the tax payers and furnish
no relief to the consumer of water.
Very respectfully,
w. f. McGregor,
JAS. W. WELCH.

CONGRESSMAN ELLIS.
Say He Will Stand by the Platform
and the Party.
Portland, June 22. Congressman W.
R. Ellis, who waa re-elected at the late
election, arrived from Washington to
day, and wilt tomorrow go to Corvallla,
where hi children are attending
school. When asked by a reporter
what he thought of the St. Louis plat
form, he said:
"In the main I like It very welL I
will stand on It. because I am a Re
publican and always have been one.
The money plank declare In favor of
International agreement, but against
the ratio of IS to L The agreement
might result In the adoption of a ratio
of 15"4 to 1, or tome other fixed figure;
but until such agreement 1 consum
mated I will stand on the St Louis
platform, vote for the nominee of that
convention and work for the success
of the Republican party."
"Should a free silver bill be Intro
duced In congress at the next session
will you support It?"
"That depends entirely on circum
stance. I will be guided by the dec
laration of my party. We have now a
plain', unequivocal declaration of the
Republican party, but It Is against the
ratio of It to L Should a bill be intro
duced fixing the ratio at 154 to L I
should still be guided by my party, and
let the question ' be settled In caucus
by party action. It Is the duty ot the
majority of the party to aettle all ques
tions on lines on which all can sub
stantially agree, and I think that some
legislation on this subject will be
adopted that will prove satisfactory to
all. The first thing I want done la to
raise revenue to meet the expenses ot
the government, and should we solve
that problem we will have gone far
toward the solution of other questions
that have been troubling us. Republi
cans do not want to lose sight of the
tariff in the coming election."
Ellis says Senator Mitchell will not
return to Oregon before the last of
July.
ANOTHER GOLD PLATFORM.
Milwaukee, June 22. The chances are
tonight that the Democratic state con
vention tomorrow will adopt a gold

ably be smothered.

of the laborers who wer opening the
road from Barina to the Cuyunl river,

were (topped by a force of armed Vea
esuelan Juno 15, has been arrested by
the Venezuelans under orders from
Caracas and carried to the Venezuelan
station opposite Uruan, the Venezue

to withdraw under protest.
CONSUL LEE'S CUBA REPORT.
Washington, June 22. A day or two
at least must elapse before the report
which Consul General Lee I said to
have forwarded Saturday can reach
the state department. It Is not sup-
posed In official circles that he will at
tempt to shape the policy of the state
department as to the recognition of
belligerency or of Independence, which
must be decided in Washington after
the contemplation ot a field broader
than is open to the perception of an
official stationed in Cuba. At present
the state department is giving more
attention o--the grievances of Ameri
can citizens than to the subject of the
propriety of interference in the strife
between the Spaniards, and Cubans,
and has been pushing a vigorous cor
respondence with Hannls Taylor, our
minister at Madrid. The purpose Is to
prevent so far as possible, depredations
on the property ot Americans In Cuba.
AN EASY VICTORY.

Club athletes for the north this even
ing. With a single exception the ath
letes are In perfect condition and the
best of spirits, and are ready for
their contest with , the crack athletes
of the Multnomah Athletic club. They
expect an easy victory, as all reports
that have reached here from Portland
are that the men there are all out
classed. TERRIBLE HAIL STORM.
