The glll-netters' union demands J1.50 a salmon regardless of size . The Ma cleays were willliiR to pay this for large flfh, but asserted that the high price of can and equipment made it Impossible to operate at a profit at the figure for run of fish, which do not average very large, and that the can nery would close entirely or be operat ed with fish caught by seining. After a week's Idleness, the men re turned to work at the scale agreed upon at the opening of the season. Jl per fish caught with gear furnished by the cannery, and $1,25 for fish caught when the fisherman uses his own gear. I'luler the prlng agree ment, the Maeleays, who referended the Mil prohibiting seining and set nets, agreed with the union that they wotild not attempt the use of seines for the two years during the Chinook season, unless forced to l.y excessive demands of the union. Mr. Maeieay asserting that the company had much rather depend upon the gill-netters for the fish provided they could be1 secured at a live and let live price, and thus eliminate the annual fisher men's war. In the late fall use of the seine for siiversides may be resorted to. as they are not taken by gill-netters. requiring a smaller sited mesh than that use and being cheap fish, are unprofitable to the fishermen. Orants Pass fishermen have been shippins about lCoti pounds of Chi nopks a d:iy. The average catch at the mouth of the river during June was H0i0 pounds of Cl.inools a day The Scaberg cannery is closed, being In the bankruptcy court. There was some fishing in the jaws of the riier at the beginning of the season, for the Shoemaker ' dead-line" was never legally established. The dead-line was re-established this spring and since then there have been no iolafior.?, the union ordering Its members to o'-ey the law. Cement pun foundations concealed under tennis courts. Instigation ot strikes ly men paid with iierman mono., in various industries, including lumbering and mining. Presence of organized reservists now in detention camps.

Until it is made the business of the United States and evervone, including ron- trress. realizes the stern necessity of decisive action to avert national calamity, the end will not be in sight. The government is endeavoring to stamp out the spies Secret service agencies are being grouped in one central service, co-operating with the secret service of allies. ire less messages are being picked up and legislation for cable control asked. Numerous seditious publications are harred from the mails, suspected diplomatic agents de Ported. pro-German agitators interned, proved German agents mulcted, arrested, convicieu ana imprisoiiea. The punishment has not been severe enough. The spies should 1h hanged as thev are detected. Construction of a new fish hatch ery to replaco the old structure which was fast decaying, 'was begun this week at the mouth of Elk creek by Hugh Mitchell, state superintendent of hatcheries for the I". S. bureau of fisheries. Mr. Mitchell, who has spent the week at the hatchery, re, turned Friday to Clackamas, after letting contracts for material and get ting the work under way. The old building was built by the late It. D. Hume, and was owned by his succes sor, the Macleans, who have gjven the government an Indefinite lease or. the property for a nominal consideration The new building will be 40x100 feet, with globe dome, have cement floor, rustic exterior and ceiled In terior. It will contain 100 troughs with capacity for three million finger- lings. Pond capacity for three mil lion more will be constructed outside and an extra water wheel constructed next year, modern in equipment. It will be completed in time for this sea son salmon egg-taking. The hatchery during the past year hatched and liberated 1.600,000 Chi nook salmon fry, 1,123,000 steelhead fry, and 2S.000 cutthroat trout fry, the eggs all being taken front the Rogue at Elk creek. The total of fish eggs at the Appleeate hatchery was four times as large and the shortage at Elk creek is blamed by Mr. Mitchell upon the defective fish wav at Anient dam. The egg take, both of salmon and trout this season was far below the average at Elk creek station and above the average at Arplegate, show ing that while the fish were plentiful in the lower river, below the Ament dam, comparatively few were in the upper river above the dam." said Mr. Mitchell. "I have visited the Ament dam repeatedly and seldom seen the fishways working well. It is impossi ble, without constant regulation, to keep the writer in the north fishway. and I have frequently found the lad der intentionally blocked, evidently by poachers to hold the fish below the dam. The south fishway as wrongl constructed and hard for the fish to find. It also has been found blocked.' Rogue river according to Mr. Mitch- WASTING HIGHWAY FUNDS.

It did not perma nently benefit the highway, and the money was wasted. The same expenditure would have doubled the paved sec tion and made a permanent improvement. The hinhwav has been graded for three vears. It has stood three winters' storms, the fills have settled and th roadlvd is in good shape for paving. The monev to be spent this year in macadamizing would bring the paved section over the summit. People voted for the b.-nd issue in the expectation that the money would le spent in permanent paved highway :.nd lbvre we have the roiinnission going back to the oliso lete, discredited system of makeshift macadam that will not stand auto traffic and on which millions of dollars have already Ken wasted.
