A recently published report OF the
official who has charge Of the London
pavements shows that asphalt pave
ments are far preferable TO stone
blocks. Not only are they smoother.
pIeasantsr for those riding or driving
and easier upon horses. but they are
much cheaper rs well 4 comparison
of records for the past seventeen
years shows that in that
time the cost OF maintaining asphalt
payements has been less by thirteen
cents per square yard than that Of
maintaining pavements OF stone
blocks. This l. a powerful argument
in favor Of asphalt pavements. They
are preferable 10 block payements and
If. as the london records indicate,
they IRE cheaper as well, ii is safe to
conclude that the days Of the
supremacy OF the latter ars numbered.

Late Saturday night, says a dis
patch of the 4th, the people Of New
port at Yaouina bay were surprised at
the discovery that there was no legal
ballot paper nearer than Corvallis,
and the city election to take place on
Tuesday. Efforts were made to. get
paper by courier sent out, but failed.
A special engine was chartered from
the Oregon Pacific at cost of $50,
arriving at Yaquina at 2:40 P. NJ. with
paper. All parties joined in paying
expenses. There was large quantity
of paper procured from the secretary
of state last year supposed to be legal
until the editor of the Republican
accidentally saw copy OF the new
law.

While there has been a falling off in
some streams, it will be seen that
there has been an increase in the en-
tire coast pack of 81, 800 cases over
the season of 1888, due to the Alaska
and British Columbia pack.
So far we have confined ourselves
entirely to salmon, now let us see
what other varieties of fish we have,
and their commercial value. Stur-
geon shipped to Portland during the
season of 1888, the greater part of
which were reshipped to eastern mar
kets 686,729 pounds, this at 3 cents
per pound, amounts to
Shad, $1,000 lbs "a cents. $500 90
Smelt. 10000 lbs q cents. $500 90
Tom cod, 1000. 0........ 800 90
Total $47, ,236 40
Our sturgeon, shad and smelt fish
ing, has but fairly begun, and are
destined to become important indus
tries in the near future: as there are
at the present time about 10 tons of
sturgeon being received daily at Port
land. TO be frozen and shipped to
eastern markets, giving employment
TO about 800 men at good wages.

We acknowledge our obligation TO
the q. S. commission, for gift of the
use of their car No. 3, in going to the
McCloud station for young salmon for
distribution in Oregon waters, to J.
F. Ellis, Supt. IN charge of car, and to
the boys who comprised the crew, for
courtesies extended and the good will
with which they performed their
work.
We are indebted to our railroads as
before stated, for facilities afforded us
in transporting eggs and young fish,
and for accommodating us i'll this
when it was inconvenient for them to
do so. To the press Of the state we
owe much of the interest awakened in
the propagation and protection of the
fish industry. We have been severely
criticised at times but have ever
found them as ready to bestow praise
as censure. In conclusion we desire
to say in all modesty, that We believe
our work is doing much to awaken
the people throughout the different
sections of the state to the import
ance of the fishing industry, and we
think much of the unbelief in the
artificial propagation of fish which has
heretofore existed has been overcome,
and for this work the commission has
been at least partially responsible.
The benefits arising from such work
are being better understood and ap-
preciated from year to year, and the
past results, both of the U. s. and the
various state commissions have been
sufficient to encourage the most san
guine hopes for its future success.
