The Gorman offensive is in its third dav and according to en tente, observers, it has no longer the character of a ireneral attack. It al ready, they declare, has worked it self into a series of coiiinaralively local operations. The success of at lea--t one oV these operations, however, would amount to a considerable a' hievemcnt for I he Germans, however much it miy.ht fail short of their original designs.

The battle is continuing on the slopes and in the woods south of the heights.

No salmon or steeJhead can get above the dam, says Mr. Mitchell, tho many are congregated below and but ting their brains out in vain attempts to ascend. Not only are the fish held, but they are seined regularly at night by poachers, says Mr. Mitch - ell. No fish are reaching the hatch ery and none can, unless the dam is torn out or a fishway opened thru it. In an effort to remedy conditions, Stale Game, Vanlen Carl Shoemaker blasted a hole in the coffer dam last spring. Thru this opening the fish could ascend until the low-water per iod cut off the supply from the lad ders. For blasting tho channel, Mr. Shoemar ?r was fined $50 In federal court.
