Fishermen ar beginning to move from different town on th coast to engage In Ashing on th Columbia river. Th steam, er Columbia brought party of 14 yes terday from San Francisco. Th nun state that many new llkctmfn would ,-ome to th river this yar, at It ws re ported th.it prospects were very f.ivor able fcr a successful season. They were tKt acquainted, they said, with th. new rtshlnn laws on th river, but would com. ply with whatever It quired of them as soon as they had determined from which state they would fish during th season. iufornu legislature, which s..ms disposed to put th newspapers out or business If It possibly can do so. yester day passed a meuure making It nee s- snry f.ir "artieles hi. h are libelous up.'n their face to b signed. This l. per. haps, th "warmest" law that h.is been pa-wed for the guldum- of newspaper publishers.

California law. however, make, it necessary tor th writer to d tcrmlne whether or not the article Is libelous be fore It appear In print. Verily, as f.ir as suits for darrairea for libel are c, n cerned. the courts w.tl have little to do The Metropolitan Ojra Company opened Its engagement before a g.Hxl. Sized audience at Fisher' las: evening, presenting Audrun's masterpiece, "La Mascot te." The company as a whole Is very good, being particularly strot In ctmedluns. who kept the uudlenc in good humor from the rise of the curtain to its fall. Mr. Maurice H.tgeman, as Lorenzo XVII., prince of Plomblno. was excellent. It was Mr. Hngeman's firs: appearance before an Astoria audience and he made a hit. Mr. Eddie Smith, as Rocco. thei farmer, won th house by his clever comedy wvrk. Mr. Smith has been seen her befor with the Orau Opera Company, and also with Eddie Heron. Miss Blanche Aldrach as Bettlna. th mascot, was very good, and her rendition of a solo In the second act brought her a hearty encore. 'The Chimes of Norm, an.ly" will be presente.1 tonight. It Is an excellent opera and th house should be packed. Svm.. !lmr ago a youmr woman In Au?. traiia. wishing to establish a t in a MKbourne hospital for homeless children, started an endless chain, asking persons receiving the. letters to snd nit leas than 10 cancelled stamp. Letters from this chain were received In Astoria during the past wvek. Tne l.ters request that per. sons Tncelvlng them mall one to each of three friends. When letter No. ISO 1 re. celved the recipient Is to return the letter to Australia without sending out uuplt. cates. Some time ago C. E. S. Wood, a well known Portland nttorney, re elvd one of these b-tters. and Jent a duplicate to his brother, who Is In the employ nr the Union Iron works. San Francisco. Mr. Wood wrote back to his brother, telling him that h could not nr th" letter, as h had figured out that, were the chain not broken, the letters which would pour Into Melbourne would com. pleteiy stagnate mall facilities. The chain however. I" not yet broken. Tb following from the Telegram Is evl. dence that th" pc ip of Portland are determined to make 'he present seven, foot fr-iliet in the Columbia go as far as possible. After the accident to the Perry, however. It Is to be feared that the navy department will not trust Its precious Iowa to the uncertain depths of Portland's waterway: "Judge W. B. Gil bert, of the fnited Slates circuit court, who returned yesterday from San Krsn. Cisco, where he was In attendance upon the circuit court of appeals, express the hope that some effort will be made by Portland, to secur- it visit from the United State battl-shlp Iowa, now In port at the Bay City. The Iowa, having come around the Horn. Is to 1e s'-nt to the sound som to have her 'bottom cleaned. Judge Gilbert says that this magnificent ship houd by all means be detained in Portland a week or 10 days en route to the sound. In all probability some action wli; be taken upon the sug-g.-silon."

The Eighth street I improvement was made by the cliy to I connect with the Young's bay bridge, the 'construction of which was undertaken by the county. After building Ihe street, It .was found that th; north approach to t,c .bridge was a block from tins end of the 'street, the plans fur the on.Jtriici.,:i .,r the bridge having boon changed. ihe question is as to who shall build the blok of n'r.-'-t to make the bridge and Elghiii street connect. The city can do It, but the property owners have ..I. reiiiiy been taxed for the linpn.v 'nr nt and It is considered unjust by the coum II that :h y rhould again be taxed.
