UNION Cry, Nov. 5.-The fishing
season is in full blast on the canal. E.
Simpson is sailing salmon at his fish
cry at Union City. Philip Kelley, of
Seattle, is having goodly quantity
packed in a similar way at Dewatto,
while Mr.. Collins is picking fish at
Seabeck. The run, however, is very
irregular. f. Pfundt, near Dewatto,
took in 500 in one haul and eco during
the day, and then for nearly two
weeks was able to catch hardly 800
more. At Dewatto another large
deep-water seine took 1000 in one
haul and $500 during the day, but
other days the haul was nearly fail
ure. The Rainier took to Seattle
Tuesday nearly 1000. Many fisher
men are shipping to Myers cannery,
but the Puritan has made few trips
up the canal for the Alaska Packing
Company at Semiahmoo. Four cents
each for silver salmon and cents for
dog salmon has been the ruling price,
but some have been sold for and
cents.

Washington Farmers should raise Hogs

There is no valid excuse why Yaki-
ma instead of sending thousands of
dollars out of the country for Eastern
hams and bacon should not raise pork
OF a grade that would still further
spread her name and fame. 1t is
generally supposed that Indian corn is
an essential feature in hog raising,
and while we grow very good corn we
cannot pretend to compete with the
Middle states; but corn is not only
unnecessary, but a finer grade of pork
is obtained through fattening and
hardening on barley. The Westpha-
liza hams are conceded the best in the
world. They are the despair of the
Chicago and all other pork packers.
The meat is Of fine flavor, fine
texture, is cured lighter and keeps
sweeter than any product of the kind
know in the market. The Westpha-
liza sausage will be sweet. moist and
soft six months or six years after
making, while in six weeks the Ameri-
can sausage will make good coupling
pins for our heavy freight trains.
These Westphalia hams and sausage
are made from hogs raised on green
feed, and fattened on ground barley
mixed with water and allowed to sour
just trihe. Barley and not corn
fattened pork is the best, and Yakima
grows good barley, and nothing could
be better for raising young pigs to the
fattening are than our luxuriant alfal-
ia pasture. With plenty of pure
water, thousands of acres of alfalfa
and a go,d barley region, there is no
reason why Yakima should not make
this an important and profitable in
dustry.-Yakima Herald.

Mason County in Line.

Mason County has redeemed itscl
and has swung into line by the cleo
ton of every republican candidate
save one, John Cameron, commission.
er from the third district. While the
returns a:e not yet complete, Ed Nc.
Reavy, democratic candidate fol
sheriff, comedies the election of Cald-
well by two or three majority, although
the official ballot may give the majo-
rity either way. The election of all
other candidates is assured, however,
and the state ticket is given about zoo
of a majority, showing that the dis
affection of democrats and populists
extends beyond the county lines
that they believe necessary reforms
are only to be accomplished through
the republican party. Especially is
this true of national questions.
The republicans of Mason County
were united and worked hard fer the
success of tho county ticket, and the
cleo ion of an entirely new set of
county officers. The JOURNAL desires
to thank the earnest democrats and
pOpulists whe worked and voted for
the success of our county ticket, and
to assure them these officers will be
found to be just and impartial in
their acts, courteous and obliging, and
that no lolitics will interfere in the
performance of their respective
duties.
Detailed returns have not been re-
received from Lil,ewaup and Picker
ing. In the former precinct McReavy
has two majority and it is reported
that Caldwell has nine majority in
Pickering. This would elect Caldwell
by two majority, and make a clean
sweep of every republican county
candidate, except Cameron, who will
be in good company and will make
good officer.
THE JOURNAL might indulge in GRIM
nations and recriminations, but will
forego it. This paper made as good a
fight for its ticket as it could, and
conducted its campaign on lines of
decency and fairness. This is evident
ly the best way, judging from results.

Danger from Catarrh.

The most important feature about
that very common complaint, catarrh
in the head, is its tendency to develop
into some other more serious and dam
gerous disease. The foul matter
dropping from the head into the bron-
chile tubes or lungs is very liable to
lead to bronchitis or consumption,
that destroyer which causes more
deaths in this country than any other
disease. AS catarrh originates in i'm
purities in the blood, local applica-
tons can do but little good. The
common sense method of treatment is
to purify the blood, and for this pur-
pose there is no preparation superior
to Hoods Sarsaparilla. The power
full action of this medicine upon the
blood expels every inlpurity, and by
so doing cures catarrh and gives
health to the entire organism.

dead. Jake Countryman was univer-
sally liked, his was a nature to draw
and develop friendship, and after de-
veloping to cement it with ties of love,
his face was always lighted up with a
smile, which spoke louder than words
for the genial heart of the wearer.
His indeed was a nature kindred to
great men. Whenever you would
see Jake in moments of holidays
there all you could see several small
children clinging confidingly to his
hands, trusting him with chi1dren's in
stinct, they recognized in him firm
friend. A very large delegation of
friends attended his funeral last Sum
day at Olympia.

The Old Settle = .a,nent.

The "Old Settler" by lai,, Judge Franc
Henry. has become famous 1t Las been sun
on many occasions and pr Gtcd far and wild
To 1t the judge added anothe. version, depictin
the Old Settler after lapse OF ten years, whic
is here given:
Some say this country's improving,
And boast of its commerce and trade,
But measured by social enjoyment
find it has sadly decayed.
In the pioneer days on the Sound
When the people lad little to wear,
And subsisted on CLAIMS the year round,
Wed hearty good fellowship here
The thoughtful industrious old settler,
Was so fond of obliging friend.
That if any one wanted his tools,
He'd ALWAYS quit working to lend
Atour gatherings for pastoral pleasure
Dance, picnic or social knock-down,
One man was rs good as another;
No kind of distinction was shown.
But now when go to party
The people around me seem frozc;
They dare not be social and hearty,
For fear they may spoil their store clothes
Not only our friendly relations
Are dropped for the worship of gold,
But tn solid back bone of the country
Is recklessly bartered and sold.
They're slashing and selling our timber
Not taking the slightest concern,
For what we shall do in the future
Without any fuel to hurn.
And wasting the nat'ral resources
Our bountiful waters contain,
They're canning our CLANS and our oysters,
And shipping them off for mere gain.
And even the climate is changing,
For only some ten years ago
Strawberries got ripe in December,
Whilst now it brings four feet OF snow.

EOoD CANAL. Nov. 6. 1894.

HOOD CANAL, Nov. 6, 1894.
Married, Nov. 3rd, on the Skokon-
ish reservation, by Rev. M. Ee1ls, Mr..
Charles Frank and Miss Jennie Seat
tie, both of the reservation. The
bride is a daughter of James Seattle,
formerly of Port Madison, and grand
daughter of chief Seattle, after whom
the queen city of Puget Sound was
named. She finished her education
last winter at the Indian training
school at Chemawa, Oregon. The
groom is son of Big Frank, formerly
of Kanlilche, and twenty years ago
head chief of the Skokomish tribe. In
honor of the event Big Frank killed a
beef, made feast, and invited all the
Indians of the Skokomish reservation,
and also thirty or thirty-five of his
friends from Mud Bay, Oyster Bay,
Squakson, Nisqually and Puya1lup.
The feast lasted two days.
Died, at the Skokoniish reservation,
November End, Moses Robinson. He
was a nephew Of Mrs. Thomas Slocum
of Shelton, has been member of the
school for several years, and last
spring united with the church on the
reservation, thus dying with an intel
1igent hope of d home in the better
land.
A Seattle paper gives us the news
that company is being formed on
the Canal to build a steamer for the
Hood Canal route. Three thousand
dollars has been subscribed already at
Hoodsport and Seabeck. 1t is to be
quite large boat, and to run largely
by night, SO that person can go to
sleep at Seattle and wake up at this
end of the Canal, thus preventing a
person losing nearly the whole day on
the trip, as has always been the case
