Qood So Far,
Fish Are Larger and Better Than
vit-. Last Year.
; Prominent almon packer predict that
this will be a good year In their line of
business, the season so far having been
good, i-wita most flattering prospect for
lthe remainder .of the year. The run of
fish has been most satisfactory, and this
condition is gradually Increasing, both
In number and sixe of the fish,- there be
ing, a good run In the river at present
and the fishermen are reaping a barvesf-
The heavy run of July fish Is expected
about . the tOth, and the packers expect
to equal or exceed the packs of the three
-or four previous yeara
The amount of fish packed to date' is
fully double that packed at a correspon
ding date a year ago,, a In 1901'' the
amount of fish that entered the' river be
fore July was very small, and the run
this year ia greatly In excess of that of
two years ago. Especially is 'this true
of ths fish put up by the cold storage
plants, " f
Early fn the season the fish were unus
ually small, and this accounts for a few
of the canneries not having as large a
pack proportionately as the others, as
some of them, especially Booth's, had
very little small gear in the water. . The
fish packed So tar have been of excel
lent . quality, fully tu per .cent' of them
being Chinook, and will command the
Very, highest market price.
On the upper river tne catch Is reported
to be very large.. The wheels have been
In operation only about a month, and
the deliveries at the canneries are now
averaging U to IS tons a day. On the
lower river all classes of gear are doing
welt.
While It is impossible to obtain exact
figures, a careful -estimate shows the
amount of fish put up on the Columbia
river thus far this season is 123,000 cases,
figured on the basis of four dosen one
pound cans to the case. Besides this,
the 'cold storage plants have handled 614
tons of cured fish,, equaling b'5 tons of
raw fish, or 23,000 cases. These figures do
not Include the steel heads, of which fully
200 tons haya. been shipped in cold stor
age. It Is feared that there will be a scarcity
of help when the big run comes. There
ha been some difficulty In securing help
about the flsnerles for several years, and
the demand this season is likely to be
more marked than for several years 'past
The fact that th eannerle are paying
5 cents a pound for fish and the cold-,
storage people cents will enable the
fishermen to experience a profitable sea
son. Considering that the prices for the
canned product have ruled pretty high
thus far this year encourages the can
ners in the belief that they, too, are to
enjoy a profitable year. However, there'
may be a slump in the market But, on
the whole, conditions are very encourag
ing. STRIKERS RESTRAINED.
Judge Fraser Saturday Issued an order
out of the State Circuit Cou-c restrain

Shields' Park Program.
Shield' Park was packed to overflow
ing last night. Even though the weather
was somewhat'unpropltlous and the seats
damp, the crowd enjoyed the program,
and testified as much with ita applause.
The Japanese acrobats outdid themselves
in their several specialties. In matters
of equilibrium they are remarkably well
balanced, to say the least. Helen Lamar
appeared In a new selection, "Why I
Wear the Q. A. R. Badge,", which Is an
Interesting and pathetic feature. George
Jones now has an assistant, and th two
present a number of new jokes and songs
which catch the crowd. The polyscope
shows a number of new and entertaining
views.
