from which in years past the most in
credible stories have found their way.
AS there is no reason to suppose that

ifications the assertions that are ca
bled now and then across the Atlantic
to the effect that a white pasha has
organized an immense force some.

miles of trackless wilderness but re

SALMON ITEMS.

The fishermen have resumed labor at
prices agreeable to all parties concerned,
and war Is at an end. The boys say the
grease run out, and they were afraid the
machinery would get rusty.-IilldmOOk

The two fish canneries in this county
will pay out this year, in labor, some
thing near $4,000, quite an item in itself
and one we should look after and en-
courage that repetition may be had
year after ryear.-TilldmOOk Headlight.
The fishermen held another meeting
Saturday afternoon, and a vote resulted
in favor of the old prices and Co.

| A party from the Coquille informs us
that Hume's trap, near the mouth OF the

opinion that the latter will get away with
the salmon.-COoS Bay Nelrs, 8.
The differences between the union and
cannerymen have not been adjusted, nor,
apparently, is there any purpose OH the
part of either to withdraw from the posi-
tions assumed last week, viz: the one side
demanding and the other refusing to
give forty and sixty cents piece for

A crowd of union fishermen came down
the river last Sunday night and scared
off several of Hume's fishermen, who
abandoned the boats and nets and took
to the woods, fearing bodily injury

Some excitement prevails at Yaquinf

from there stated that 100 union meI
have set the price of salmon at 81 cents
per pound. The canneries refuse to pay
over 24 cents and have been paying
cents. AS a result there is a standstill

A STATEMENT.
EDITOR AsToRIAN:


The Pioneer of yesterday morning
was made up largely of matter taken
bodily without credit from the columns
of the Transcript, a copy of which it had
SurreptitiOusly gotten hold of before
the regular hour for its de livery. To
the profits of this bit of piracy the PiOn-
ee1' is welcome, if it derives any credit
by it; but when it appropriates col
umn editorial and with braZen dishOn-
esty credits it to another paper, thereby
casting upon the Transcript the impli-
cation of its plagiarism, it is time for us
to enter protest. A parallel to this
case, morally speaking, wOuld be the
larceny of goods from a merchant and
then adding to the meanneSS of the
crime by an attempt to lay the theft up
on somebody else. A more contempt
ible piece of petty treachery we have
neVer witnessed in journalistic career
of twenty years. 1t is with commiSera
ton and not ill temper that we say this,
while rejecting upon the unfortunate
condition of a community that is sub
ject to the wiims and tricks and the
flippant jugglery Of an institution that
displays not the least excuse for hon
esty, moral responsibility o. truth.
Yours respectfully,

ROBERT HARDING, young English
socialist, when he wants to make a
speech on the streets or public
squares, padlocks himself with a chain
to an iron fence or similar fixture.
Then when the police come to take
him in they have to spend a long time
in getting him unfastened, and he
can make pretty long speech before
he is carried off.
