Plenty of Salmon. In the annual report of Master Fish Warden McAllister, lately submitted, it is shown that the 1909 crop of salmon harvested in the waters of the Columbia river, Oregon side, amount ed to 17,604,997 pounds, which Is a decrease of 858,549 pounds. The chief reason for the decrease is thought to be tho shortening of tho open season by tho legislature. Blue back salmon alone show a gain in the pack over 1909. WILL LLOYDS TAKE THE 6AMBL OUR PORTLAND LETTER. Written for Capital Journal by Frert O. Denton. ft ma 9f 940.1 0'8'9ifrfril1fr04l94W FAVOR BIG APPROPRIATION FOR COLUMBIA RIVER Portland, Ore., Feb. 17. (Special) That the Columbia river improve ment fared well in the rivers, and Tharbors bill now before congress was the advice received in Portland this -week from the capital. A total of 42,153,500 is proposed to be spent on Columbia river work, and items pro Tided for in the bill are as follows: Wenatcheo to Bridgeport, $25,000; Bridgeport to Kettle Falls, ?50,000; Celilo to Snnke river, ?90,000; at The Dallies, $600,000; Cascades ca nal, $5000; Vancouver, $7500; below Portland, including Willamette river, 55175,000. mouth of Columbia, SJ, 200,000; gauging, ?1000. If this money- is appropriutd, a J now seems likely, tho improvements to tho Columbia river during tho com ing year will bo lasting in their bfm -eilts, and will be of great advantage to the whole Northwest. The work is too important to be claimed as a bet terment by any one state for an open river from tho Inland Empire to the sea will benefit almost every person living in the Northwestern states, more or less directly. By clearing out the upper river, steamboat navigation will be aided, with a good effect on rates to and from tho interior, while the improve ment of the channel to tho sea from the Columbia will facilitate ocean shipments both to and from the Northwest states. Will Exploit Central Oregon. Tho Great Northern Railway will -exploit Central Oregon and has sent data for bulletins and other railroad publications that will describe the country thoroughly, and tell prospec tive settlors what they may expect there. Tho valley of the Deschutes river tributary to tho Hill road n6w building up tho Deschutes will come in for much favorable publicity and its resources, crop possibilities and general future will be told. The Hill lines are taking an interest in Oregon that will mean much for tho state. At exhibit rooms in St. Paul tho Great Northern shows Oregon products and similar exhibits are to be maintained by the railroad company in Philadel phia and Boston. These places will direct a great deal of attention to the opportunities in Central Oregon for the settler. Will Celebrate Anniversary. Celebrating its quarter centennial as a state institution, the Oregon Ag ricultural College will hold tho most, elaborate function ever given at the institution at the close of the college year. President W. J. Kerr aud the regents have taken steps to prepare a suitable observance of the achieve ments of the past quarter century, and the faculty-, student body and alumni will Join in the demonstration During the past 25 years tho Insti tution has increased its holdings of land from 35 to 235 acres; the build ings from one to 20; faculty from 9 members to 94, and the student body from 97 to approximately 1400.

For wnnt of fenders tho street cars crush a child up every few. weeks In Portland, but tho children should not get In tho way, and divi dends are needed. The little town of Stanfield In Umatilla county has some way of getting out eastern investors by the carload In special pullmans. Tho last one brought men who bought nearly a quarter of a million dollars worth of real estate. Somo of our boosters by profession should try and pipe off the way this is done. Stanfield is a good town, but the Willamette valley has several just as good that need a few carloads like this. One of the troubles of the Port land real estate speculator is' to get water on his lots without paying for the mains. A special committee of booster club delegates Is wresting with this probem, and tho Central Labor Council has a committee at work to see that nothing of the kind is accomplished. People won't buy suburban lots without Bull Run wi ter, and somo snug fortunes have been made by having pull enough to get mains laid for nothing. The new amendments prevent this, and what Is a poor speculator to do? From the way Harvey Scott is un limbering his mud batteries on Gla- vis and PInchot I should judge he held ten sections of timber land somewhere and had about twenty in his mind's eye within some reserva' tion that he was in hopes of filing scrip on for conservation purposes. There are fully 50,000 citizens of Oregon who do not caro a busted irrigation dam what tho politics of the next governor are. What they want is a progressive, honest man who will support the Oregon consti tution and give a fair deal. Tho machlnle may get Its assembly plan launched all right, but it is sure to be stuck in the mud with tho preferential voto before it travels far. People are tired of tho good old days when primary voters were bought for $2.50 each in Portland, arid if thoy cannot smash tho ma chine one way they will another. If tho Insurgents in congress can bo-starved to death for want of patronage they are not the right kind to make over a party. The Astoria fishermen are coming hack to the pfeople for tho ro-onact-ment of that fish law. It got 26,000 majority, and Astoria has more peo ple in it now than it had then and every man there will voto as often as tho law allows for tho fish bill. Organized labor will endorse It. Tho Portland city council Is go ing to havo the streetcar company lower its stops so that ladies who are not graduates from tho gym can get aboard. Somo mossbacks may object to this, but modern ideas will prevail in tho end. Portland pro gresses in splto of all. Tho proposal to carvo up old Clackamas is shocking to tho staid old citizens of that county, but Mil waukee would rather have five cent fares and be arthoxed to Portland, than to remain with old man Clack amas and pay ten cents. Even the blindest holder of JdLo acreage and lottngo in Milwaukeo can realize that a five cent faro to Portland wl'l holp him unload. Low fares make LLIgh land valuos. So, carvo up Clackamas, no matter how Bho hol lers. Tho struggles necossary in Port land to get a bridgo are almost ns stronuous as to get a millionaire banker in tho pon. Both proposi tions are to go to highjer courts. Does two pounds of buttor wolgh as much as a roll of butter, or in other words does a roll of buttor contain two pounds? This question should bo dobatod by the different high sobool teams, the winning team to eat the butter. An offort is to be made to extend the deep water for shipping up the river to Sell wood.

( UNITED rilESS IJJASBD-WrEE.l Oakland, Feb. 17. Acting for Sid Hester, Clarence Coleman, of the Coleman Insuranco Company, of this city, today cabled the London Lloyds insuranco company a request for a policy for $30,000 against rain on Washington's birthday, when Hester will stage tho Nelson-Wolgast fight ata Point Richmond. Hester has planned no covering for his arena, and ho fears that should it rain on the day of tho fight his re ceipts will be cut down to such an extent that ho would lose heavily on tho venture. Coleman declared today that he was unable to predict whether the London Insuranco writers would con sent to issue so extraordinary a poli cy, nor could he estimate what tho premium might be. Tho premium would depend largely upon tho weather forecasts and atmospheric conditions 48 hours previous tothe fight day. These, ho said, probably would bo learned by telegraph should they consent to issue the policy, and tho premium estimated in a direct ratio with the probability of rain. Tho promoter already hns insured the life-of Eddie Smith, who will ref eree tho battle. I IT F of! a IS THE DECREE That Stiles shall bo used moro extensively this season than over bo-3 fore.
