The New County Printing Law.
salem Capital Journal

This bill was presented by the State
Press Association. At first it had no
friends, there being not a newspaper
man in either house or senate. Mem
bers of the press legislative committee
besought members in vain to introduce
the bill. 1t had to make its debut as an
orphan, introduced under the royal pre-
rogative to every citizen due from his
representative of Marion,
fathering it ''by request" Thus labell
ed it went upon the calender under
cloud, for few. bills s'by request" ever
see the light of day. 1t is but just to
Speaker Geer to say that he appointed
an intelligent committee on printing, to
whom the bill was referred. Members
of the press appeared and made argu-
ments in its behalf, securing favorable
report on the county printing bill. The
house printing committee reported
against the bill to have all new laws
printed in the newspa pers, and in favor
of the Gambee bill to print session laws
in pamphlet form, one for each voter.
The press committee withdrew the bill
to print the laws, as they did not wish
to antagoniZe the friends of the Gam bee
bill, but secured their aid.
The county bill passed the house by a
large vote, and went to the senate, where
it lay with some two hundred other bills
until the railroad, tax, ballot, assessment,
important measures were taken up, de-
bated and disposed of. On the Goth of
Feb. at 10 D. M, house bill No. 1859 was
reached and passed by the constitutional
majority and not a vote to spare. 1t was
anxiously followed back into the house,
sent to the enrolling committee, reported
back to the house five minutes before the
final adjournment, signed by the speaker
messaged to the senate, signed by the
president messaged back to the house,
message read and the bill was sent to the
governor to receive his signature. That
there might be no mistake about this
law being correctly passed the clerks COM
pared the enrolled bill with the original
house bill, and the chairman of the legis
lative committee was shown the sigma
lures of the presiding officers. This is
the history of the passage of the new
Oregon newspaper law, that requires the
proceedings and list of claims allowed by
county courts to he published at county
eX pense.
The new law will go into effect May
! Dist. 1t provides for selection of one
newspaper in each county, and two
newspapers in counties of 10, 900 or over,
having the largest circulation in the
county, to publish the proceedings of
the county court. The price allowed by
law is fifty cents per square of ten lines
of BREWER or its equivalent. The bill is
non-partisan, non-monopolistic and if
any unfairness is shown in making
selection of official county papers, the
aggrieved publisher has right of appeal
in court. The law will prove a good
investment for Oregon as a measure of
economy and the Legislative committee
of the Press Association feel well salts
fed with the result of their labors.

A FIsHERsIAN's TESTIMONY.
He Thinks the Salmon do not Return to
the Sea.

He Thinks the salmon do not Return to
the Sea.
At meeting recently held in Portland
by a joint committee of the members of
the Oregon and Washington legislatures,
regarding passing certain laws for the
protection of the salmon and ascertain
ing their habits some very conflict in
testimony was adduced in regard to
whether salmon return to the ocean after
spawning. / have been fishing for sal
mon both summer and winter for the
last II years on the Columbia, but I
have never seen or caught a salmon yet
returning to the ocean.
The laws of nature are certainly the
same with salmon as with smelt, as
every body has seen smelt after spawning
drifting half dead down the Colum bia, ,
unable to stem the current, and are
washed up on the banks on both sides of
of smelt covering the river bank in this
manner, and believe nature has pro-
vided this destiny for the salmon. Of
course salmon have a longer route to
travel and consequently will die in those
little streams along the Snake river and
upper Columb bia. / have caught what
we would call Chinook salmon late in
the fall, but | never saw small salmon
yet without it was full of spawn, down in
G1ib part III lllc SOluIn Dld. 1n6 nSn
that are caught and supposed to have
spawned are ugly looking, sickly fish
that would never reach the ocean alive.
In regard to the small salmon and the
distinction between them, / would say
that the small salmon which are alluded
to, are all pretty near the same size and
average from eight to twelve pounds
The females among them all possess
spawn, having in obedience to natural
law sought the fresh water to deposit
their eggs. There are none caught which
reach the weight given. On the other
hand the genuine chinook weigh from
twenty to twenty-eight pounds, seem on
the grounds above taken to be a distinct
variety of the Salmonida another variety,
which averages from twenty-eight to
thirty pounds and have been known to
attain weight of even fifty pounds, ex-
hibit and maintain as marked distinc-
ton in the matter of weight as the fore
going varieties.
Why, if these salmon return to the
salt water, do not the enormous seines
of Fitzpatrick and johnson which scrape
the bottom of the channel catch them,
and thus conclusively prove the oft re-
peated statement that they do not return
to sea, instead of dying by the thousands
on the banks of streams bordering on
their spawning grounds. Hence catch
the small as well as large salmon as no
injury is done.-John Nassa an Cath-
IUuet Gazette

That Mxsterious Graxe.

Mr.. Frank Williams of Eight Mile
creek informs us the mysterious grave
mentioned a few days ago, was examined
by some of the people III the neighbor-
hood and found that whatever it was
dug for was five feet long, and four
feet deep by two feet in width, and had
all the appearance OF being filled up
within a few days.
A young man by the name of Baker
claims to have dug the grave, but at
whose instigation he will not say. 1t is
thought however that he did not do it.,
as he has reputation of loving his ease
too well to do the amount of hard work
necessary for the job. The grave was
3x5 feet on top and run down to depth
of two feet, then jog was made and two
feet more dug down. Messrs. A. p.
Ferguson and John Danrielle dug the
earth out of the hole but found nothing
in it. They say that it was as well dug
grave as they ever saw. One thing
seems certain, the grave was not dug for
fun as there was too much work about it
for that. Evidently something had been
buried there, but whoever had done so
had the body, or whatever it was, Sec
reilly removed before it was discovered
Mr.. R. V. Drake is our authority for the
statement in the latter part of this ar
ticle.
A prominent physician and old army
surgeon in eastern Iowa, was called away
from home for few days during his alb
sence one of the children contracted a
severe cold and his wife bought bottle
of Chamberlin's Cough Remedy for cit.
They were SO much pleased that they
afterwards used several bottles at var
ious times. He said, from experience
with it, he regarded it as the most reli-
able preparation in use for rcolds and that
it came the nearest being specific of
any medicine he had ever seen. For
