Salmon in August

Ed. AsToR1AN:
What would be SAID Of our
market men if they were TO
slaughter animals in the pangs of
parturition and offer their flesh for
sale in the shops. Yet "a. II" !"
in the Oregonjan, suggests extend
ing the salmon catch to the
fifteenth of August.
July 3lst is as long as health
and decency viii allow the pack
ing of salmon. After that the
fish are soft and flabby in meat
and pale in color, unfit to pack
and will not make a pure article.
The reputation of Columbia river
salmon should not be injured by
putting into market any such
stuff. For another reason August
fish should not be taken. They
being ready for spawning, no
doubt stop in the lower river,
perhaps on the shoals and sands
of the lower Columbiass4 They
should not then be taken, scattered
or disturbed. Common considera-
ton of the future would demand
such action. April fishing should
be strictly forbidden. There is
nothing in the fishing of that
month but the destruction of gear
and few early fish and loss Of
human life.
Spring lishare strong and furnish
ed for a long run-to the head
waters of the streams. They
should be allowed to reach there.
With them in the upper streams
and the August fish in the lower
rivers some little Offset would be
offered to the immense slaughter
Of two million of grown salmon
during the 80 days Of MAY, June
and July.
The Legislature of Washington
Territory meets this fall. 1t should
pass law prohibiting April fish
ing, OTegon's Legislature meets
next year when ii should pass a
similar one. Each should also ap-
point a fish commissioner, whose
duty il would be 10 see that the
laws concerning the fish interests
were enforced, and TO collect facts
and report TO the government de-
partment upon the interests of the
salmon fisheries.

TABOR.

It is announced that ex-senator
Tabor has expressed a desire to be
come Governor of Colorado. He has
recently sold another group of Lead.
vile mines and will probably realize
million or two. If this money
shall hold out until after the con-
vention and election, doubtless the
old man will be the ''choice of the
people" of the Centennial State for
their chief executive. Tabor has
never asked the Coloradians for any
thing they did not let him have
after he paid three or four times
what it was worth. His last i'm
poruant buy was seat for thirty
days in the United States Senate.
AS Senator he succeeded in dis
gushing his associates so badly that
even Coloradians were almost
ashamed of themselves to think
they had sold him the Office. The
only thing that enabled them to
bear up under the shame was the
large sum Of Tabor's money they
held.
This thing of selling offices to
this ignorant old boor is becoming
disgraceful. If the Colorado people
retain any pride or self-respect they
will enter into no more of the
shameless bargains. They cannot
honor Tabor-the man is incapable
Of understanding the term; but
hey dishonor themselves, and
bring disgrace upon the State and
shame upon republican form of
government. Separate him from
lis money, and Tabor would not be
by the men who now
avn upon him, and decent women
would regard it as a slain upon
heir characters to be seen in his
company.
1t is hoped that the good people of
colorado will not again scandalize
themselves by putting this man
nto Office, for which he is no better
ualifed than a hog is for a ballet

THE WHEELING, West Virginia,
IntelIigencer, commenting upon the
late outrages upon Mormon elders
in Georgia, suggests that while
Mormon missionaries may not be
desirable persons to have around,
sit is less desirable to scare them
off with eggs long from the hen and
with bloodhounds." If the Georgi-
ans are really in earnest in their
desire to be rid Of the Mormons they
are taking the very best course not
to crafty their wishes. Two OF
three years ago they took it upon
themselves to murder a young
elder, and On occasions since have
maltreated and mobhed the mission
aries; but instead of checking the
industry Of preaching in that State
is pretty generally understood
that Georgia is one of the very best
fields that the Mormons have in tie

HOUSES FOR LABoRERs.

There is a demand for houses IL
Salt Lake. This is essentially 8
city where people own their own
dwelling houses. The proportion OF
housewares to population is, per
haps, greater here than in any town
of an equal number Of inhabitants
in the United States. The policy
in this respect has been wise and
commendable. The masses are
interested in the city. Their efforts
are all the time in the direction of
improving their own property and
thereby benefting the city. There
is also an Immediate and powerful
incentive to the preservation of
order and the maintenance of peace,
as well as to protect the reputation
and good name of the town.
1t will be better city
when every resident is the absolute
owner of the house he occupies.
1t seems, however, that this cannot
be, for here as elsewhere there will
be men who lack that in their char
acters which would enables them to
hold their own in the struggle that is
constantly going on among the
race. Some will succeed better than
their fellows, and it appears that as
they go up others are crowded
down in corresponding degree. Peo-
pie are parting with their little
houses, and the property is gradu-
ally falling into the hands Of those |
who have been more favored by
fortune. This fact is proven by the
the long lists of houses and lots
offered by the real estate agents,
and by the numerous sales that are
weekly placed on record. There is
a larger proportion of renters
in Salt Lake to-day than
ever before and the ratio
is steadily increasing as the
number of day laboTers increases
and the population grows. With
this changing condition of things
comes also q demand for houses
not the better and more expensive
class of residences, but the cheaper
little places that will meet the re-
quirements and the purses Of the
poorer people. 1t is observed that
in various parts of town crows" and
detached houses are going up, but
they are all costly: that is to say,
they range in price from 81, 800 to
$4,000 each. They are beyond the
reach of the men who receive from
$12 to $40 a week for their labor.
The demand is for cheap cottages
and inexpensive tenements, such as
can be erected for $500 or $1,000,
and rented for SIS or $40 a month.
Real estate agents say they could
ell dozens of such houses with indus
triOus workingmen and their fami-
lies who would be permanent ten
ants, but who are now moving
about from one place to another,
getting out of one tumble down
into another, going from a
high priced house into cheaper
home, always trying to better
or to make their houses
and their purses harmonic. We
are confident our rich men could
1roitably invest some of their
money in erecting convenient,
and cheap houses for
the laboring people, a class that is
certain to increase in the city faster
than any other.

THE MAYOR Of Wilmington, Del
aware, can draw a finer distinction
between professional knowledge
and official information than any
man who has yet come to the sur.
SAGE. The other day brutal police
man, in a fit of anger, savagely beat
his wife, ard Mayor Wales, who is
also doctor, was called to attend
the woman as q physician. In this
capacity he saw the effects of the
vicious, unmanIy assault and bat
terry, but he holds that as mayor he
has no knowledge of the facts, and
hence the brutal officer is retained
on the force. a mayor whose mind
is capable of getting down to so fine
a distinction is too small a man to
occupy an executive Office of sny
kind. He ought to gravitate to the
proprietorship of q perambulatine
peanut cart.

WE ARE approaching the time
when the autumn elections will
begin. By the time the returns are
all in and counted, the question
whether next year will give US a
Democratic or Republican President
will be pretty we'll settled. The
majorities given this fall will indi.
cate the result in 1854 better than all
the representations by the wise
ones, who may think they are able
to look into the future with some
degree of correctness of vision. The
elections begin in Ohio and Iowa on
October 9th, when both will vote
for State officers and members of
the Legislatures, Ohio also passing
upon three proposed amendments to
the Constitution, two Of which re-
late to the liquor traffic and the
other to the judiciary. Of course
Iowa will travel in the old rut, Civ
ing the Republicans the majority,
though it will be reduced somewhat
from that Of former years. There
is doubt in Ohio, with the probable
tiles in favor of the Democrats Win
ming. On Novem Der 6th5Massachus-
etts will elect a Governor and other
State officers and Legislature; Con-
necticut half of its Senate and the
House; New Jersey a Governor, the
House and part of its Senate; New
York Secretary of State and some
minor officers, and will vote also
upon proposition to abolish con-
tract labor in the State prisons;
Pennsylvania a State Treasurer and
Auditor General; Virginia a House
Of Representatives and part of the
Senate; Maryland a Governor end
the Legislature; Minnesota state
officers, voting also upon three pro-
posed amendments to the Cons titu-
ton, one of which provides that
hereafter all general elections shall
be held on the Tuesday after the
first Monday in November; Ne

and justice of the Supreme Court.
