Tom Murphy Slsips.

From all the facts that can be
gathered IN the matter it would ap-
pear that Tom Murphy, the man who
beat Cara some time ago, has lavant-
ed from the CJmstock to avoid arrest
on the charge of mayhem. On the
LIST of the month warrent for his
arrest on this charge WAS issued, 1t
having been settled that Cara has
lost the use of the eye which suffered
SO much in the fracas between the
men. On the 81 the warrent was
placed in officer Bartlett's hands.
who learned that Murphy had left
town. Ga the evening of the ID
(Wednneslay nigh) BARTLETT went to
Carson in quest of Murphy, having
received a telegram during the day
from Sheriff BotsfoGd of Ormsby
county informing him that Murphy
had arrived in that city at , o'clock
the previous morning, When Bartlett
arrived in Carson, howevor, he was
unable to lind his man, and returned
ye.terday without him.
Whether Murphy is hiding in
Carson OF has got away to California
is not known but the latter is likely
to be the case. He evidently was
informed or surmised that a serious
charge was about to be preferred
against HIM, and taking time by the
forelock, made good his escape. En-
terprise.

WHEN IMMIGRATION WILL CEASE

for Thousands of Foreigners.
According to Mr.. Giffen few genera
tions more will see the end of immigra-
ton because there will be no room for
more immigrants, all the blank habita-
BILE space having been occupied. Mr..
Giffen is a master of statistics, saws the
London Standard, but his manipulation
of figures in support of this rather dis
NAL theory is open to objection. Take
the case of the United States-at the
present time the most attractive emf
grafton field. Uncle Sans territory,
exclusive of Alaska, amounts, speaking
roughly, to about 100000 square
miles One-third of this Mr.. Giffen de-
ducts as uninhabitable; but if ever the
rest of the country becomes as popu-
lous as Western Europe the Americans
will soon find means of utilizing and
fertilizing their sage-brush and alkali
deserts.
Then of the remaining 2,000,0 900
square miles he says that only about
100000 square miles remain to be culti-
waited, implying that this is the only
tract open to the agricultural immi-
grant. But any one who has visited
that great sloven continent" as Ma
thaniel Hawthorne styled America,
will know that, although the remain
ing nineteen-twentieths have been al
ienated from the State and have be-
come private property, only small
percentage of this area is cultivated, in
the sense in which cultivation is under
stood in such countries as England,
Holland and Belgium.
In the State of New York alone, de-
spit the big city at its southern ex-
tre,aity, there are hundreds of square
miles of wild land-land which cJu',

AT THE FISH CANNER,ES.-
Description of the Wheels with Which
the Fish Are Caught.

When on the Columbia river last sum
mer, writes a correspondent of the Chi
cago Inter Ocean, l saw those wonder
full fish Wheels" by which the fine sal
mon of that magnificent river are
taken. One, which l examined partic-
ularly while in operation, was thirty
six feet in diameter, with the other
measurements in proportion. 1t was
permanently placed in its settings near
the shore, with sort of fence running
from it and widening out into The
stream below, so as to compel the fish
from quite width of the river to coma
that way. The current, of course,
turns the wheel, which is so seived with
wire that when the mighty paddles go
down any thing of size that comes that
way is at once lifted out of the water.
Now the salmon is no "happy-go-
easy" fish. 1t will not float with the
current, but, instead, ever goes against
it, sometimes, too, at the rate of twenty
miles an hour. So, drawn in by this
fence inclosure, battling with five or
six-mile current they rush into the wire
cages of this revolving wheel and are
lifted out of the water. This wheel il,
so arranged with troughs on a slant be-
tween the paddles that the fish are
dropped into large tank, through the
apertures of which the water runs frcS-
ly. And this tank is so fixed with pull
lcys that whenever desired it can be
lifted above the river, and the water
Immediately running out the fish are
readily killed and then taken in boat
loads to the canning factory.
There are several of these wheels to
each factory. And looking into one of
these factories saw large room, pos
sibly forty feet square, covered foot
or two deep with fish, waiting patiently
to be put through the necessary pro-
cesses and get safely housed in cans.
With one of these wheels, so | was
told by boss fisherman, they took out
last spring, in twenty-four hours. 1922
900 pounds. When l was there the best
of the season was passed, but even then
they were doing lively business. One
salmon then taken would measure
about four feet in length, but the most
of them that were being Topped over
would weigh from five to twenty pounds.
The smaller ones they do not desire,
and SO the sieves on the wheel are made
sufficiently coarse to let them through,
and they fell back into the current to be
picked up again some future day when
grown to respectable and paying size.
There were pointed out to me several
varieties Of the salmon, some of which,
for instance the dog" and white, are
either discarded altogether, or traded
off for trinkets to the Indians. But,
when not being watched, the tempta-
tion must be considerable to make good
market of them all. The "blue-blacll'
and the dark and spotted varieties have
the finest grain and flavor, and SO are
the most priced. But many salmon
that is eaten and relished in Chicago
would not be served in Portland. But
since all can not live in Oregon, it is
well that with this dish people are not
over dainty, for when ignorance is
bliss, tits folly to be wise"
