CHINOOK ITEMS.

Large Preparations are being made
here thia; year for catching the willy
salmon. The Chinook beach never did
present such an appearance as It does
this summer. 1t is dotted with
pretty cottages from the Chin
nook river to Scarboro Hill, and
with a population OF at least 15O We
have two grocers' wagons, two butch
er's wagon. seveari milk and butter
wagons, and, one All Green Vegetable
Merchant visiting us two times a week
We have a large hall for our various
entertainments during the summer sea-
son. We have new school house well
furnished with teachers and the modern
appliances for the mental culture of
young fishermen, in which also we hold
Sunday school every Sunday and reg
ular religious services once month,
with Rey. Mackay, of Ilwaco, ofTiciat-
ing.
The fishermen seem to be much more
contented and satisfied this year than
heretofore in their calling as trapmen,
ON account Of the new fish law. which
regulatessthe distances OF traps apart,
etc., and also the number of traps each
resident citizen can own.
1t was with much rejoicing that this
fishing community read In the editorial
column of your last Saturdays issue
that the Gamers had decided to take
fish by weight only and paying there
for five cents per pound for the Royal
Chinook salmon and bluebacks, and
three cents per pound for steel heads.
This taking Of fish by weight is the only
satisfactory way to put damper on
these casual outside buyers, who often
times will almost lead an honest fish
erman into temptation by shaking the
gittering gold at him to the tune of
Sl25 and $3.50 for the 40 and so pound
salmon, which they can we'll afford.
AS a community of fishermen, it was
decided at a meeting held last Thurs |
day, that the Washington Fishermen's
Association be urged to hold out for
five cents per pound for salmon and
blue backs, and three cents for the
steel heads, which we are informed has
been granted.
Now every trap man is over head
and ears In coal tar, getting out his
nets in good cheer and hoping ever for
good catch. FISHERMAN.

Spokane Falls, April 2O.-The business
part Of Wardner, Idaho, was burned
this morning and several hundred peo-
pie are homeless. The loss is estimated
at between $25O,OO and $500, 900 Less that
one-third Is covered by insurance.
The fire started in the clothing store
owned by Lawson, between and Q
o'clock this morning. The cause is not
known. as the fiaInes had gained full
control Of the building before the fire
was discovered. The alarm was given
shortly before 2 o'clock and brought
the citizens out at once. but II was too
late befoie any systematic work could
be done by volunteers. The flames
spread to adjoining buildings and by
2:SO the entire population was in the
streets fighting the flames and others
were rushing to save their possessions.
The wind scattered the blazing cinders
everywhef" and In a short time the
whole gulch was roaring sea OF fame.
1t was evident by o'clock that the en-
tire business part Of the city was
doomed. The firemen still worked to
prevent the fire from spreading and by
tearing down buildings and running
great risks Of being caught by falling
timbers, they succeeded in cutting of
the most Of the residence part OF the
town. BY O'Clock the fire was checked.
At daylight the scene was a pItlful one

How Is it that Astoria is so ouiet
and orderly?' was asked an Astorian
reporter yesterday by a Californian
who has been in town for a few days.
Then he continued: "Since | arrived
here there has not been single in
stance where lawlessness Of any de-
scription occurred, with the exception
of the few salmon that were thrown
overheard by some fishermen, and vet
was led to believe that this was one
of the worst places on the coast"
The reporter informed him that in
the offices of the police Judge and JUS
tice of the peace case OF misde-
meanor was but seldom tried, and that
for nearly week there was but one
case Of arrest for drunkenness in town.
The gentleman was then asked IL he
had read the report Of the council pro-
ceedings, in which Councilmen O'Hara
and Bergman had referred to the moral
status Of Astoria, and on being assured
that what those gentlemen had said
was literally true. he expressed his un-
bounded astonishment.
"Well.r he replied, IL that is so,
and have no reason to doubt your
word, then Astoria Is the most ma
ligned city on the coast. Why, there
is not single town in which 1 do busi-
ness that has not a good-slzed docket
in the police court daily, besides the
number Of cases Of disturbance that
never come to trial. or in which the
praties responsible escape arrest"
