deputies, Idleman and Morgan, who have
been patrolling the Columbia river in a

set the nets were engaged In Illegal fish

will lay claim to their property in Mr..
McGuire's hands. as they AVE rendered
themselves liable to fines ranging from
$50 to $3.50, while the nets at the utmost
are not worth more than $500, Thu re-

floating corks, they are sunk out of sight
beneath the surface OF the water, and
marked by only a single buoy, so that
the chance Of their being discovered is
small. My deputies found ten of these
nets, but, Of course, they were unable
to ascertain who the owners are. I am
