Fishing Laws
To Be Enforced.

state Fish and Game Protector IIoip
lister d. MCGUIRE was In the city yes
terday, having come down from Port
land to interview the tanners on the
subject of providing him with the
means Of enforcing the law prohibit
ing the taking OF fish on Sunday. MIR.
Mcclure, it seems, when appointed by.
the governor, had no definite idea Of
the unavoidable expenses connected
with the duties of his Office, but soon
learned that If those duties were to be
properly performed, some provision
would have to be made In addition to
the allowance from the state. Speak
ing to a representative of The Historian,
Mr.. Mcclure said: Last year, and be-
fore the act was passed abolishing the
commission, there were no difficulties
encountered by the fish commissioners,
those gentlemen having unlimited pow
er to expend whatever was necessary
in the discharge of their duties, but
since my appointment as fish and game
protector, / find that the allowance is
barely sufficient for Office expenses,
much less to furnish a craft with which
to patrol the river"
What step do you intend to take to
enforce the Sunday fish law? asked the
reporter.
Every step that is necessary" was
the reply. while l hold the Office
shall certainly see that no Violations OF
the law are allowed to pass unoun-
ished."
what encouragement have o met
with from the cannerymen?' was
asked.
To this Mr.. Mcclure replied that he
had called upon nearly all the ram
ners who reside in this CITY, ard he
found a willingness OF the part Of all
to assist in every way in enforciiis the
aw. IAN 1 have seen so far have sig
nihed their willingness to help defray
incidental expenses"
Mr.. Mcclure left for Portland last
evening on the Telephone, but Will be
in this city again about Tuesday or
Wednesday next. 1t is his intention to
secure a fast little steamer and patrol
the river from one end of the fishing,
grounds to the other and make salutary
examples Of all who are caught fishing
or with fish in their possession during.

THE OPEN SWITCH.
AN ESTABEISHED SAFEGUARD.

An ESTABEISHED SAFEG UARD.
Anybody who travels by cars knows what
is meant by Ian open switch" 1t is the
terror of railroad men, and the dread of the
traveller. Its victims-killed, horribly man
gled or manned for life-are numbered by
the score each year.
Yet even the dreaded "open switch" is not
so widely fatal as is a certain disease, which,
without ceasing its activity for an instant, is
daily filling hundreds of graves.
What is that terrible ailment? you ask.
1t is Heart Disease! "But," you reply, con-
fdently, ~ haven't any heart disease-my
heart is all right" Are you SURE?
DIR. Franklin Miles, of Elklart, Ind, the
distinguished specialist in diseases of the
heart and nervous system, states that disor.
ders of the heart are as common as those Of
the lungs, liver, stomach, bowels or kidneys,
though often unsupported. The reason peo-
pie are not aware OF this important fact is
because symptoms of heart disease are not
usually recognized as proceeding from this
organ, but are attributed to some other
source. If you have shortness of breath,
huttering or palpitation, pain or tenderness
in left breast, shoulder or side, oppressed or
CuOhiuS oShontlOuj AaihtiiS oMO'hAA"6
spells, your heart is affected.
81 had been troubled with heart disease
for years. My left pulse was very weak, could
at times scarcely feel it, excitement would
weaken my nerves and heart, and fear OF
impending death stared me in the face for
hours. Dr.. Miles, NerNine and New Heart
Cure are the only medicines that have proved
ofany benefit and cured mel. NJ. DYER,

"My wife has been taking DR.. Miles New
Cure for the Heayt. She thinks i%twonderful.
She has not been troubled with pain or
smothering spells since using it. We have
also used Dr.. Miles Pills, and we find them
all they are claimed to he."-GEO. L. FINK,

mails are convincing proofs of the wonderful
powers of DR.. Miles New Cure for the Heart.

PROGRESS OF THE MEsr.

The figures which tell the truthful
story of progress and developement In
the Western states and territories for
the decade between 1880 and 1890 point
out the great future before this wide
and resourceful region. Nothing could
more amply illustrate the rapid and
continuous growth Of the great new
country that the publication or the fig
ures Of comparative advancement in
landed and personal wealth. Among
them all Washington state stands
prominently at the head Of the col
umn.
In 1880 the total assessed valuation
of the then territory of Washington
was but $685. {, 1898. The increase of
wealth during the ten years following
was constant and rapid, the additions
being at the rate of $40. 0Oo, 900 a year.
In 1890 the aggregate worth Of proper
ty in the new state was swollen TO
| s124, 765, 4S5, an increase Of nearly 500 per
cent. q - E#'
The adjoining neighbor. oregon, was
not so fortunate, barely doubling her
wealth in the ten years. The 1880 val
uatlon here was $50, 522, 0S4; in 1890 it
had increased to $106, O25, 731.
Idaho rose rapidly. piling up her
wealth nearly 400 per cent. The in
crease was from $S,44O,S7e to $25.5S1,-
$40. :
In Wyoming during the same period
the valuation rose from 49, 21, 1929 to
$31, 431, 495.
In Utah 1t jumped from $S4,775,279 to
$1O4, 759, $50. ~
In Arizona from $s.27O,214. to $2t.434,-
767. r
In New Mexico from 81, 1863, 4O6 to $46-
Gal, O1O.
In Colorado from $74,417,6 9S to $685.
Oil, 1876. f.ti HF
In North Dakota from $S,7S6,5 72 to
$751; 94,5OO.
In South Dakota from $11.534, 25O to
$1S1, Q $3.50.
In Montana from $1S,6 O9, SO2 to $780,
1872, 1896.
This is indeed, wonderful progress.
When it Is understood that this Is but
the development of infancy, n a
but conjecture the vast possibilities in
store for the boundless and golden
West. The progress has been phenom-
email, but 1t will not stop here. The
land Of magnificent distances and IN
fathomed has but fairly
crossed the score on the great track of
advancement. Strength is gathered at
every bound. Unprecedented gains are
made each year. m
One reason for this unparalleled in
crease in valuation Is found in the in
crease of vaule in agricultural lands.
The demand for them by practical
farmers from all over the country has
beeng great. They have grown to real
ize the enormity and quality OF the
products with which they. are capable
of unfailingly rewarding the toll of. the
h~usbandman. In no other great region
IAN such varieties OF products he taken
from the soil. Nowhere else can the
same amount of money ~beLyearlyb de-
rived from the acres. 1t is not what
cam be grown on these fertile farms,
but. rather, what cannot,r which rem
ders them so valuable n so highly
susceptible to rapid increase in value.
