SALMON GALORE.
Creeks PIentifnlIy StOcked--How Tn1a-
NOOK Bay People Live.

Two gentlemen who recently took
fishing and hunting trip by foot with a
pack horse, along the line of the railroad
to Portland and to Tillamook bay, tell
many interesting facts.
On the outgoing trip little creeks put
ting into the Columbia on the Oregon
side were found to be chock full of sal
mon. So great were their numbers that
they almost damned the creek in places.
The water was clear and they could
plainly be seen. For the most part they
were very large, many being about three
feet in length. They would not bite at a
hook, and one OF the hunters wasted
several ehots from rife trying to shoot
one, until it occurred to him all at once
caused by the water. Holding about
four inches under he tried again, the
shot piercing the fish about the center of
the body. After thrashipg about in the
water for some minutes. discoloring it
with his blood. he was finally captured.
On the return trip three weeks later,
there seemed to be nearly as many fish,
but they were dead. They had beat
themselves to death trying to ascend the
streams over the rocks, and the air was
impreguated with their decaying stencil.
The Tillamook bay country is pre-em-
inently dairy country. The forest
growth and brush is 80 thick rabbit
could not penetrate it, but there Is
strip of prairie land about 5 miles wide
by 20 long, which furnishes annually the
most phenomenal growth of clover and
alfalfa ever seen. Almost every family
owns milk cows and depends upon milk
and its manufactured products for liv-
ing. Whole shiploads OF cheese are ex-
ported from Tlllamook bay, raised in this
small area. II is g lazy mans country, for
outside of milking twice day and turn
ing the herds into pasture, little else
furnishes occupation, and hunting and
fishing may be INDUCED. Neither is
profitable from a commercial standpoint,
though salmon fishing might be made to
reach enormous proportions. Tillamook
bay is usually full of the finest salmon,
but only the very largest are esteemed of
value. The fish nets have meshes six
inches square, and any fsh that can
wriggle through that IS not merchanta-
BILE. An average of 10 cents each is paid
fishermen for salmon, but the few can
neries along the bay have much more
offered than they can use, and tons of
fish rot for lack of market.
Every family along the bay has a
boat. Indeed it is hard to get along
without one, as lateral distances along
the ocean are more easily covered by
water than land, owing to the tremen-
dous growth of timber. The inhabi-
tants have acquired universal fondness
for crabs, with which the bay is well
stocked, and properly cooked are said
to be as delicious as an oyster. These
crabs are as large as big turtle, and in
the clear water eight or ten feet be-
meath the surface may be seen siding
along the bottom, apparently without
definite object. When these are de-

Mr. CampbeII's sojournings.

U. 8. Deputy Surveyor Will E. Camp
bell and son, Charles, returned Monday
from the seasons work in the field, en-
bracing surveys near Cottonwood, Lower
John Day valley, near Murderous creek,
south fork of John Day river, ten miles
west of Baker City, and on Hay Creek,
near 30-Mile. Many spots of historic
interest were passed over, among them
the battle ground where fought the lit
tie scouting party out from Canyon
City to meet the Piutes the memorable
summer of '7s, when Oliver Aldridee
was killed; the old and almost forgotten
Auburn ditch, dug by the hardy miners
in the early Cos to bring water to the
rich placers of that lively camp; the
desolate gorge of Goodrich creek, where
the over-charged reservoir. gave way last
spring and swept away the home and
lives of family of seven in an instant's
time.
While having little time to discuss
political matters, Mr.. Campbell gath
cred the conviction, after passing
through nine counties, that Mckinley
will carry Oregon. Grant county Is
true to her name, and in Sherman and
Gillian counties he found sheepmen,
already pushed hard by free trade, who
are ready to forego protection even, were
it necessary to do SO, to save the ceun-
try's credit and maintain sound money
standard. This shows their apprecia-
ton of the grave issue now before the
people. While there may be few de-
serters, there will be no skulkers from
Republican ranks next election day.
