STILL A GREAT INDUSTRY.
BEGINNING of the Salmon Season of 1899

So much has been said about the
Alaska salmon fisheries and the deca-
dence Of the Columbia river fisheries,
that some of our eastern friends ap-
pear to think that salmon fishing on
the Columbia river is a thing OF the
past.
They are mistaken.
Salmon packing on the ColumD1S
has been, is, and for many years Will
be, a great industry.
An industry that gives employment
to 1000 men, that has ~lnves.eo ne
5000 900, that packs yearly $2,000,'
OOO worth of fish; that buys million
dollars worth of supplies every year
that sends twenty thousand tons oi
salmon every year all over the world
would be considered an important In
dustry anywhere.
The pack of 's7 was 354,055 cases
of four dozen cans to q case; tne
pack Of 'eS was 360,S20 cases; the
pack of 'S9 will begin operations TO
morrow: that is, the open season be
gins tomorrow; though very LITTLE
will be done for the next two weeks:
There will be nearly 1900 boats IL
the water this season: there will b'
an unusually large number OF seine
and traps, and twenty-five cannerle'
will be in operation on the river.
Despite all that is said, it is ac
knowledged, everywhere that tn
Columbia river salmon is superior t'
any other; is put up in such shape
as to Justify the claim to superiority
and commands the highest price il
the markets of the world.
The policy Of the Columbia sGlmol
Gamers will continue to be put u
the best article in the best way, ant
rely on merit and excellence: on quail
ity rather than on quantity, and holt
| the supremacy they long since &C
quired.

A New Comfy Map.

FL. Parker has just finished
map for county use that is more COM
plete than any county map OF Olaf
sop county that has heretofore fallen
under our observation. 1t is on a
larger scale and gives one a better
idea than a smaller one could.
The county boundary lines are
more clearly defined, the course OF
the numerous streams are shown,
and the names of individual owners
so far as practicable are plainly
marked on the tracts and subdivi-
sions they own.
The boundary line between sOlatsop
and Tillamook used to run through
the middle of Nehalem bay, or the
mouth of the Nehalem river: but In
the year of eighteen hundred and
something else, the legislature cut of
one row of townships from the south
ern part of this county. and the
boundary now runs six miles farther
north, striking the ocean at Arch
Cape.
The two most noticeable features
about the condition of the ownership
of the land, is the large number Of
unsurveyed townships, and the rap
idity with which that which is sur
veyed is being filed on.
There are nine solid townships yet
unsurveyed: the five on the southern
boundary line, five N, r. 8 and 9 W.,
and n, r. Z and 8 W., besides frac-
tional portions of adjoining town
ships, or about 375 sections, or about
24O,00O acres still unsurveyed, and
not in the market.
Since the map was begun this
month, over fifty sections, or $4,000
acres have been filed on, and parties
are daily going out to the Nehalem
and this side of that stream to file on
some of the finest timber land on the
continent.
