British Columbia Salmon Pack.

The salmon cannery men on the
Mas and Skeena rivers of British Co.
lumbia complain that the run this
season has fallen far below their ex-
pectations. At Rivers inlet the salmon
are swarming, the supply being in ex-
cess of the demand. From figures
shown by the Skeena river canneries,
however, it is evident that a fair pack
will be made, although it will not be
as heavy as preparations had been
made for. The following, taken from
private advices received at Port Town
send dated July 19, is the total pack
of the different canneries:
Rivers Inlet Canning Co. (River's

And Don't You Forget 10.

In every town you find some men
who always crOak and grOwl; their
chief amusement seems to be to snarl
and whine and howl. OF course they
do not prosper well-such people sell
dom do-and so they strive to make
themselves and all their neighbOrs
blue. If strangers come, these men
take pains to get them off alone, and
while they speak in doleful tones with
now and then groan, proceed to tell
them how the town is dead and passed
away, and hasn't any enterprise that
half begins to pay; how real estate is
very low and taxes very high, and
every darned improvement scheme
dead sure to wane and die.
The good book says a day
will come when all must pass
away and swap for wings and
golden harps this tenement of clay;
the earth will burn with fervent heat,
the sun go out in gloom, and every
living breathing thing shall find red
hot tomb. When that time comes the
croaker who fights against his own
town-and tries to drive good men
away and break their efforts down
will be declared a victim for q special
dose OF tlame-ten thousand years
and he will be roasting just the same
Meantime the ener getic man who
labors for his town, and always works
to build it up instead Of tearing il
down, will ride from earth to heaven
in a Pullman palace car, and dwell in
peace forever where the first-tlass
angels are.

DRY WEATHER ITEMS.

Many OF the smaller lakes in Klam.
ath county, which have never been
dry since the first settlement of the
country by the whites, are dry this
summer, among them Swan lake, says
the Ashland TidingS. The shortage
of the hay crops will make the winter
lag of stock serious problem If the
winter should be a rigorous one, and
it is probable that a number OF cattle
will be hronght to Rogue river for
hay.
The dry weather makes the fish aud
shakes, and even the squirrels, rabbits
and birds do considerable rustling for
drinking water in many places this
season. Up on emlgrant creek the
little animals Of this sort are seen in
unusually large numbers about the
pools in the creek he'd. Joe Shepard
killed three ratllesnakes recently in
his fathers alfalfa field, and Willie
Grow killed one further down
the creek about the same time. Rat
tlesnakes are scarce in this country,
but they are occasionally found on
the rocky hillsides, in the foothills
and mountains.-AShlGnd TidilgS.
Walla Walla had q visitation OF
grasshoppers last Friday night. They
came by millions, but the next morn
ing had all left, their route being
toward Puget sound. Nine years age
this summer the Walla Walla country
was visited by the fraternity, and
much damage was done to fields and
gardens, It is hoped that the insects
have not returned for a lengthy visit.

The streams running into Puget
sonnd had low water last winter anG
spring, the same as in this country
and the consequence was that very
many logs could not be gotten dowI

are now having to pay 81 thousant
for logs which only month ago COS

Major Jones' Report.

WASHINGTON, July 31.-MajGr w.
A. Jones, in charge of the improve
ments of rivers in Oregon, authorized
by the river and harbor bill, the COM
merce of which centers at Portland,
has filed reports of operations during
the past year. He suggests the fol-
lowing appropriations for the next
year:
Columbia and lower Willamette
rivers below Portland, including sluic-
ing at Skamokawa bar, and st. Helens
jetty, S350000.
Willamette river above Portland,
S105,000.
Upper Columbia and Snake rivers,
Oregon and Washington territory,
$4,000.
Major Jones submits with the re-
port a project for overcoming the OBJ
structions in the Columbia river at
The Dalles and Celilio by means of
boat railway. He also recommends a
permanent annual appropriation of
$25.OO0 for snagging operations on the
Columbia and tributaries.

4 PIT 10 Burn Sawdust Ia.

The Clatsop Mill company has built
up quite an area west of the mill,
which adds to the available ground in
that vicinity; substratum of saw
dust, furnishing a base for future op-
erations. OF late, however, they have
adopted another plan of disposing of
their surplus sawdust. They have
built a large pit 32x32 feet inside
40x40 in the clear, about 200 yards
from their mill, out in the river, and
are burning =. the sawdust. The first
night or two it looked enough like a
dwelling or scow on fire to excite at.
tention, but now the flames and smoke
elicit no remark, except from those
to leeward of it.

1T may not be generally known"
says Joaquin Miller, ''that the Colum-

were once one and the same stream.
But this is the fact. To say nothing
of the assurance of geologists and the
Indian tradition, you can easily trace
the links of connection by chain of
lakes reaching from the head waters
Of the Sacramento river to a point
near where the Columbia river burst
through the Cascade mountains and
made its way into the Pacific ocean
near where Astoria now stands, in
stead of flowing on down by mount
Shasta and out at the Golden Gate"
