Don't He Hasty.

To run a newspaper without occa-
sionally Publishing an item that is in
exact or giving offense, remarks an
exchange, is like running a railroad
without having accidents or smashups.
1t can't be done. No man on earth is
so much imposed upon as the editor of
a newspaper. Pushed with work con-
tinual!y, he must rely on second and
third parties for information as to the
events that transPire. Frequently
statements are received from reliable
people, but which are subsequently
discovered to be without foundation.
If therefore. kind reader, you find
yourself aggrieved by some statement
in your home paper, keep the fact in
your mind. Do not fly off the handle.
but go to the editor and ask for a cor
rection, and take our word for it, nine
cases out of ten, if your case is a just
one you will be received politely and
the correction made with pleasure.

Republican League Club Convention Not


Republican League Club Convention Not
AfHicted With q KIsndIke Climate.
The largest and warmest political
meeting eyer held in Oregon was that
which assembled In the Armory hall
at Portland Tuesday. Over 1900
delegates from the different republi-
can clubs in the state were present,
and made rather an unwieldy body, for
there was by no means uninimity OF
purpose. The Mitchell and anti
Mitchell wings of the party were there
and they were there to create harmony
on the terms which each proposed to
dictate.
The convention was called together
at 10 o'clock in the forenoon, aud
evething went swimmingly until Pres
ident Carey announced the committee
on credentials. No greater commo-
tiou could have been created if he had
applied the match to a powder house.
Henry McGinu was at once on his
feet. and without waiting to be recog-
nized by the chairman denounced the
committeeman as being blacklegs and
scoundrels. This was signal for the
Mitchell men to defend themselves,
and complimentary remarks were ex-
changed that did not have a tendency
to lower the temperature. What
might have resulted had not some one
moved to adjourn until afternoon will |
never be known, but no doubt the |
motion saved many unpleasant things |
being said.
When the convention re-assembled
the hotheads had cooled down some
what, and but little difficulty was ex-
perienced in adopting the report of the
ON credentials, the dele
gates generally being seated. During
the recess some sort OF a compromise
was patched up between the opposing
and Hon. Claud Catch, re-
the anti-Mitchell side, was
elected president and G. w. Fullon, a
lieutenant, vice-president.
This created harmony for the time,
put it is that sort of harmony that will I
lot long exist.

FISHING WITH DOGS.
Unique Method OF Capturing Salmon Used
by the Ainus.

| Dy the Anus.
The savages of Saghalin island have
unique method of fishing for salmon
trout with their dogs, description o.
which is given in ''Trans-Siberian Saw
! ages" The water around the island
| is wonderfully clear. The author, who
went out in canoe, says the bottom
was distinctly visible, while from
under the canoe the frightened salmon.
trout were swimming seaward in such
numbers it seemed as if it would be
difficult to drop stone into the water
without striking one.
From the time we started I was
puzzled to guess what the Ainus could
be taking thirty dogs with them for.
was soon to find out. At certain
point all the men and dogs came to a
halt Half the men and dogs then
moved farther along the waters edge
about two hundred yards.
At concerted signal the dogs were
started from their respective points
and swan straight out seaward in
single file in two columns. At wild,
sharp cry from all the Anus the right
column wheeled left and the left col
umn wheeled right until the head of
each column met. Then at another
signal all of them swan in line toward
the shore, advancing more and more in
crescentic formation.
AS the dogs neared the shore in
creasing numbers of fish appeared in
the shallow water, frightened forward
by the splashing of the advancing col
umn of dogs, which, as soon as their
feet touched bottom, pounced upon
the fishes as quick as a flash.
The animals promptly brought the
fish which they had seized to their
masters, who cut off their heads and
gave each dog the head which be-
longed to him as his share of the catch.
The dog who caught nothing got moth
ing.
believe this dog drill of the Anus
is entirely unique. 1t is all the more
remarkable, too, as the dogs, many of
which have been captured from the
forest, are still half wild.
