SAYS CHAMBERLAIN
WASHINGTON, Feb. 11. 7n a
telegram to Senator Chamuorlain, O.
M. Clark, president or tho Portland
Chamber of Commerce, says:
"Our organization wishes to regis
ter Us opposition to tho present ship
purchasing bill, but advocates the
change in the shipping laws which
will enable citizens of the United
States to profitably enter into the
purchase, construction and operation
of ships. Wo also ask for nn emer
gency bill from year to year, allow
ing foreign bottoms to carry freight
between tho Atlantic and Pacific
coasts, it being impossible at pres
ent to get tonnage, which Is working
a great hardship at tho present time.
Also reiterating our former recom
mendations of tho appointment of a
commission of competent men to ex
alne into and thoroughly revise tho
shipping lawn."
In reply Senator Chamberlain
wrote teday:
"Tho suggestion contained In your
letter looks as innocent as it looks
good to tho averago man, btit If you
have paid any attention to tho discus-
sIobb in congress whenever the ques
tion came up of permitting forefign
vessels to cngago in coastwise trade,
you will understand that the subject
is loaded with dynamite. You ask
why; simply because tho shipping mo
nopoly is determined that no legisla
tion shall be passed which -will In tho
least interfero with its great preroga
tive. Soma day our country will
awaken to the necessity of revising
our antiquated .navigation laws, but
until liccesslty strikes home and
strjkes bard it will bo Impossible to
securo such emergency legislation aa
that suggested In your letter."
LEDOCHOWSKY
OF
HE
ITS
HOME, Feb. 11 Father Ledoch
ovvsky was today elected general of
tho Society of Jesus in succession to
Father Francis Xavlcr Wernz.
TIIE commission on industrial relations has dono excel
lent work in its probing oL" the strike situation in vari
ous States and by its examination into the huge philan
thropic foundations by which those who, lmvhii filched
vastly more than they can use, have made a conscience.
fund restitution of a small portion to societv.
The hearings are interesting chiefly because they re
flect tlie attitude of captains of industry toward their
employes. The typical attitude of the directors of the
groat corporations is that they do not in any way concern
themselves or feel any responsibility regarding their
workmen, but leave them to the tender mercies of whom
soever is employed as manager, and industrial war or
peace depends nearly altogether upon the breadth of vis
ion of the manager, who is usually valued according to the
dividends he returiis.
Some of these financiers arc beginning, to awaken to
the fact that conditions which creato the billionaire also
create the pauper, and that society is realizing that such
Conditions cannot long continue, and that any civilization
which fosters such inequality must necessarily crumble as
all such civilizations have crumbled in tho past. The tes
timony of Daniel Guggenheim proves this. The philan
thropic lounuations are m tneinseivcs proot or. tins, as tncy
seek to assist the sufferers and perpetuate the cause.
But one of the great creators of industrv touched
upou the canker that is gnawing at the heart of socfety,
but one showed a grasp of the underlying cause, and that
was Henry lord, who has given society not only an auto
mobile for the masses, but shocked the ruling caste by set
ting an example in the fair treatment of labor.
Mr. Ford stated as tho cause of industrial unrest,
monopoly of natural resources, -which should be the com
mon heritage of all. lie said: "The government should
own the mines and other natural resources, which are the
foundation of industry ond labor." He includes water
power among the resources and believes in government
ownership ot tronsporttvhon lines. He 1111101808 absolute
free trade and states that his employes, the highest paid
in America, would be better off under it. He declares
that poverty is the source of crime and that any convict
can be reformed if given work at good wages, lie has
moreover shown how to bring about improved conditions
for workmen in a practical manner and rendered the arti
ficial work of philanthropic foundations unnecessary.
Land is also a .natural resource as much as the mines
or water power. Millions of acres of land are withheld
from use, while millions of people arc on the verge of
starvation. The value ot land is created largely by soci
etv, which in turn reaps none of the benefits it creates,
which go to land owners. The growth of the community
transforms the land owner into a millionaire, though he
himself has contributed nothing to the increased value of
his, property. Instead of taking this unearned increment
as taxation to support government, we tax the industry
and enterprise ot the people who create the increases
value of the land and present the increase to monopoly.
Nearly all of our social and industrial ills, our great
fortunes and our poverty, can bo traced to private mon
opoly of natural resources, the source of all wealth a sub
ject all of flie philanthropic foundations "will consistently
ignore, as they themselves owe their existence to it and
were created to tinker with the results and divert attention
from the source.

Tho following argument regarding
tho extermination of fish in Clacka
mas river, a situation threatening
Itoguo river, was mndo boforo tho
committees on fishing and fisheries
at Salem by Walter F. Ilackus of
Portland. '
Twenty years ago tho Clackamas
river had a heavy run of spring Chi
nook salmon. These fish wero a dls.
tlnct variety, and fishermen on tho
lower rivers could readily distinguish
thorn from the regular Columbia
river run. They canio early In tho
season, and ascended tho Clackamas
river to Its very source. They woro
a hardy lot of fish, vory heavy for
their length, and of tho finest qual-
ity.
llshod a salmon hatchery GO mllen
up tho Clackamas river, in tho hopes
of partially restoring tho salmon run,
but tho heavy net fishing on tho low.
or river prevented nil but n fow fish
from reaching it. Furthermore, un
der tho system thon In forco nt the
hatchery, tho small fish wcro liber
ated while still retaining their yoko
sacks. in this holploss condition
tho Dolly Varden trout took caro of
most of tho baby salmon, so that tho
hatchery's work helped but very lit
tle, and tho salmon run in tho Clack
amas continued to dwindle year by
year.
About eight years ago a law was
passed by the legislature closing tho
Clackamas river entirely to net fish
ing for salmon, but this law was a
thoroughly they had boon cleaned
out, I will mention nn Instance:
In Juno I visited thu government
hatchery, which Is now located on
tho Columbia nt lllvor Mills station,
Tho man In charge had been waiting
since early April for tho chlnook snl
mou to reach his racks but, nt tho
llmo of my visit, ho hnd about 70
Unit In sight. These 70 fish wcro
all that reached tho station tho en
tire season, and they represented tho
solo remainder of tho onca famous
run ot Clackamas salmon,
Wu must put tho bhuno whoro'U
belongs. It might bo sntd that ninny
of these fish woro taken In tho Co
lumbia, but this not true. Tho
Clackamas fish woro tho earliest of
tho run. and usually reached, tholr
liatlvo stream boforo tho not fishing
was thoroughly bogun on tho Colum
bia. There Is only one answer to tho
problem tho Clncknmns salmon has
boon exterminated by not fishing,
and the snlmon ot the Itoguo river
will go likewise if tho upper river
is not protected. The snlmon con
stand tho toll taken of their numbers
In tide water, but to fish tho spawn
ing streams means extinction.
Practically nil our mountain
streams nro now closed to net fish
ing. Hood river, Sandy river nud tho
ClacknmaH river nro closed entirely.
All the Tillamook county streams
have net limits established at tldo
wator. Only tho Itoguo river and
tho tfmpqua river aro open to not
fishing on thu riffles.
Tho Umpuua stands the drain fair
ly well, as Its rough character will
not permit drift fishing. It can only
bo fished with set nets, and oven
theso are causing a great 'decrease
In the Umpqua chlnook. Hut thu
ltogue river at Grants Pass Is al
most u counterpart at tho Clackamas.
It has the same long stretch ot open
riffles where gill nets can bo run for
miles without taking them out of the
water, and Its salmon will vanish the
same way as those of the Clackamas
unless net fishing 1 4. prohibited
above tide water.

MISS TOWNE INTRODUCES

nnother bill, one providing for on net

Two other bills woro nlso introduced.
For many years tho net fishermen I Joke. Fishermen deliberately vlo

their appearance in the river and kept .talking about, because the few cases

Nature has provided a cortaln lml

that salmon In .fresh water wcro

10,000 adult fish spawn in a certain
stream, it means that approximate))'
the, 84IUO number will return to tho
sanio htreain four years later.
Although ach female fish dyposlts
between two and three thousand
eggs tho Ipsa Is almost unbelleve
able. Vast quantities ot eggs aro
eaten by tho numbers of trout which
aro always hanging around tho
spawning beds. A great percentage
of the eggs aro not thoroughly fer
tilised, and aftor hatching, tho help
less young fish furnish food for many
large trout,
Tho fact that in former times the
run was about tho same each year
shows conclusively that the vjut
amount of eggs doposlted on spawn
ing beds did not result in any In
crease ot fish. Naturally, thero was
a gradual flecreaso in tho run of
Claokmuas chlnook.
About twolvo years ago tlm United

fish woro taken as during (ho for

Two ear later, through tho of
forte of Geo. C, nrownoll, tho loglla
ture again opened the Clackamas to
net fishing. Once more tho pet men,
who were now moro numerous than
over, proceeded to drag out neurly
every salmon which entered the river,
Deals we're hauled up the river 20
nilles in order to do a tho rough Job
on the way down.
liacji year tho run grew lighter,
and many fishermen gavo up tho
work, remarking, in disgust, that the
river was fished out, Tho hatchery
was moyed down the river 30 miles
in tho hopos of getting some seed
fish in the lower region.
Then three years ago tho river was
attain closed to net fishing by order
of tho State Fish and Game Commis
sion. Fiye years earlier such an ac
tion would' havo aroused a storm of
