(Ed. journal ) For somo tlmo thoro h-$ been a controversy botween tao Oregon Electric company camo bo- foro'the council and stated that if thoy wished to make permanent im provements the grade established by the city was correct, but "that it waB not necessary to make perma nent improvements at this time: that by hauling in about 2500 yards all but later when pormanent work was to bo done tho railway could- bo brought to grado. Tho pooplo of north Salem as soon as thoy .camo Into the city, organ ized an improvement league. Know ing tho difficulty that o'ld Salem had with hor grades the league has worked to have a common grado os tablished that would bo permanent and ns fast as wo improved mako our Jmprovomont8 pormanent, and it looks', to tho writer, at least, that it Is a good deal of gall for a resident of another city to come beforo & council of Intelligent men and tell them that they havo established a correct grade but that they do riot want permanent Improvements at this time; that any old temporary makeshift Is good enough for Sa eom. Tho grado established by tho city Is not a grndo for Droadwn nlono, but for all of North Salem, and has cost tho city more than one thousand dollars. Now Bhall tho city lose nil this work and cctabllsh a temporary grado for tho railway or shall thoy look aftor tho Intorost of tho city?

Tho street commltteo wna complotoly vindicated by Mr. Drown, tho onglnoor that Mr. T.il bot brought to Salem to cxamlno tho Tlllmnn grado, when ho stated fo tho council that it was correct for pormanent improvement, whlln tho company's contention hatr boon that It was not a corroct grado; and all tho pooplo want and whnt tho council should demand Is that thoy rjde e tabll3hod by tho city ns to ihether It was a propor grade, and 1 sm eorry to say that tho Inter rtaP published In th'o Orogonlan, coning fiom Mr. Tnlbot, havo not tlnrs boon consistent with tho futi, and havo load somo of our rft!:eni with somo of our nolghbor fat cities to got a wrong Impression to Just what was bolng dono by the council.

It would soom equally good advice for thoso who deal la pelitics: If you wish to ndvortlso your competitor speak slightingly of him. Tho human bolng is a qucor animal, and has somo queer Ideas. Most of them will take privileges thomsolvos that they will not accord unto others. For Instance, your customor can como Into your store and tell you all kinds of mean tricks yqur com petitor has bcon playing, also all kinds of prices he has been making, and yqu know that at least half of who never says anything about your competitor is likely to fqel if you tried to tell him something about that buslhess rival which did not happen to bo creditable. Tho best way of showing up the bad points jpf a competitor, if ho has any, Is to let his customers do all tho talking, oven though you may bo told that somo competitor has mado uncompli mentary remarks about you.

This Is tho opin ion of fishermen who havo Investi gated the subjoct nnd given It Intel ligent thought. In Baker county Instances nro cited where water has boon ehut off from a ditch nnd thousands of trout ha vo been loft high and dry to rot on top of tho ground. Tho larger tho lltch tho greater has been tho slaughter. Moreovor, If tho ditches aro'novor allowo dto go dry, fish that onco ou ter them from tho river novcr got bnck again. Thoro is a law requir ing tho heads of Irrigation ditches to bo covered with n screen, nnd this law should bo enforced. If It Id en forced thon tho stocking of our in land streams with fish will bo doubly off cell vo. That Irrigation ditches In other otntos destroy multitudes of fish la a woll known fact. For ImUnnco tho following Item from a rccont Issuo of tho Scnttlo Post-Intolllgoncor is only ono enso among many: "Gnmo Wnrdon Thomas Mullen of Ynklmn county hns called tho sports men of this district togothor to do vlso somo way to protect tho game fish which arc now bolng slaughtered by tho thousands by bolng dumpoJ on tho orchards and alfnlfa flolds from tho Irrigation dltchos. "Tho trout and salmon ontor tho irrigation ditches and thon turn off into tho laterals, finally onding tholr llfo In tho grass whoro tho water has played out and loft thorn. At torney Edward Parker a fow dnyo ago -caught a six-pond rainbow trout in his pear orchard. Clinton Shan non found sovornl trout In his or chard and numorouB others havo re ported similar finds. "Small boys catch long strings of small trout simply by Bcooplng thorn from tho pools with tholr hands.
