Mr. H. D. McGulre, Portland, Oregon. Dear Sir: In response to your questions of March 29, permit me to ' say that It Is now fifteen years since Or. Gilbert and I studied the salmon problem for the United StateB Fish Commission. Since that time Dr. Gilbert lias been engaged In var ious researches for the government and many of our former opinions have been modified in the llgljt of these recent developments. It now seems probable that the small Chin ook salmon running in the river are all young males. They are sexually mature and the greater part of them die on the spawning beds. As no fe males are found among these young fish, it would seem that tholr des truction can do no harm. As it 1b the adult males nre sufficiently num erous to Berve the needs of the spec lei:. Regarding the young fish, I have changed my former opinion since I discovered through the researches of Dr. Gilbert that there are no female PAVING" WILL BE FINISHED BY COMMENCEMENT uoui 1-koub ijr.i.u j-i i EAST KIEVEXTH STREET I WORK SHOUM) HE RUSHED ON CEMENT WALKS - , One of the Warren Construction Company rock crushers . broke down yeaterday, but the repairs were completed today and the machine Is again In operation this afternoon.

It Is now up to the property owners along the street to finish their cement Bidewalks. In many places the board walks have been torn up waiting for the cement workers, who have so many contracts on hand t'hat 'several weeks must elapse after the board walks are ta ken up before the cement walks are put down. All of this work should week so the street will present a good appearance to the hundreds of visitors who will be here during the week.

This could be done by forbidding the use of wheels or traps of all kinds, or seines, by limiting fishing season, by preventing fishing on certain days, or in several other ways now under discussion. I do not know of nnjr reason, however, why the wheel Is any worse tlian any other contriv ance catching tlio same number of fish. Very truly yours, David S. Jordan, President.

That the food fish of our state need better protection than is now afforded is agreed. You have already or doubtless will receive considerable liturature on the subject, but no matter how attractive the argument, stop and consider how it may be colored by self-interests. . The United States Bureau of Fisheries are the greatest expert authorities on the. subject and have no ax to grind. .Read what they say. DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE AND LABOR Office ot Ihe Secretary, Washington, D. C. Hon. Charles W. Fulton, ' - United States Senate, Washington, D. C. , ,slrU, Tho l'nnrtmont realizes tho Importance of tho various questions affecting tho salmon fishery In the Columbia Rlwr brought up In your letter of tho 18th ultimo, and has taken this opportunity to make a thorough Investigation of the matter. There can be no question that the status of the fishery is unsatisfactory and that un der existing conditions the trend may be expected to be steadily downward, with the result that in a comparatively few years the run of salmon In that stream will be reduced to such a degree that thousands of fishermen may be thrown out of employment nnd much capital rendered Idle. The Federal Government Is without nny jurisdiction whatever in the premises, nnd the duty of conserving the salmon supply in Columbia devolves on the States of Oregon. W ashington, and Idaho; but this Department has been charged by Congress with Important fish-cultural operations in the Columbia basin, and has felt Impelled from time to time to direct attention to the necessity for giving adequate protection to the various species of salmon frequenting that stream. The Department is con vinced that tho run of salmon In tho Columbia can be amply maintained for an indefinite period if artificial propagation Is supplemented by rational protection; but artificial propagation alone cannot cope with the situation and. as a matter of fact, tho recent experience of the Department has shown that Its beneficent labors are render ed almost futile by tho failure of tho Slates to appreciate this fact. The IHuirtniiiits. sees no ntimm for advocating Hie elimination of fish wheels from tho rlv.T as there is no evidence to show (hat thin form of uiuiitiis H piirtlciilnrly destructive to salmon. A condition that is six-chilly favorable for the passage of salmon niiiiiely, very high wnter renders the wheels unserviceable mid on the other hand, h-i-IIh of very low water, when the fish nre much restricted In their movements, nre also unfavorable for (he wheels. Hiii'Iiik the (Mist two or three seasons the catch of salmon l.y wheels has been romimrativclv hiiuiII; but even It It were very lame It would ben fact of no sieclnl similflcance in the present connection The Columbia ltlver Is, however, made to yield a quantity of salmon far greater than regard for the fu ture supply permits, and tho drain Is yearly becoming more serious. Xo one fumlltui- w ith the situation can fail to appreciate ,. .,. , ,. ,H-i H-t ulty of the industry that Is furnished l.y the concentration of a tremendous iiniount of fix.sl and floating apixiratus of raptor.' in and near the mouth of the river.

I'nder such conditions. It Is self-evident that but comparatively few fish are permitted to reach the upper waters whore the spawning grounds are located Tho details of the measures necessary to place the salmon Industry of the Columbia Rlv?r on a permanent basis cannot be elaborated by the Department at this time, but In general It may be said that there should be ill ii rmtrlrllon on the amount of apiralus employed In a given section; U) an adequate weekly close season rover, lug possibly two days ut first, hut reduced Inter, If the circumstances warrant It; (;) an annual close season pre- ATHLETICS AT THE HIGH SCHOOL TRACK MEET IS COKVALL1S AXI 1IASEHALL GAME IX EICEXE OX 8ATIKDAV This week will be the end of most of the athletic activities at the high school.

The baseball team is in good shape for its game Saturday, and will give the fast aggregation from Portland a hard tussle. The Columla team has met with but one defeat yet this year, and that was administered to them by the Chemawa Indians by the close score of 3 to 2. The local high school team Is de termined to place another blot on their good record by pulling down kn inn,, .nit nf tha HMirfl next.
