prize here. The idea met with general
approval. ana II was decided by the
members present that a committee be
appointed TO raise the amount Presi-
dent Kendall. Of the Push Club. and
President Van Dusen. Of the Chamber
Of Commerce. will select the committee.
probably today
An idea Of the enthusiastic manner
In which Mr.. ThompsOn's suggestion
was received can be gained from the
statement that more than One-hfth Of
the amount proposed 10 be raised
could have been gecured at last nights
meeting.
Herst offered two propositions. One
was that the people Of Astoria make
him a loan Of $4,000. 10 be- secured by
mortgage on the mill. tie value "
which would be $4,000 The other was
that rhe people should give MIN bonus
Of $4,000. on condition that the mill be
operated for n period Of ten years. dis
tributing 1900 monthly In wages. II
appears the committee was not salts
fed that the Iowa plant secured by
Hersi was worth aa much az was eX-
pectcd. and the report was not IA
vOrahle one
However. the two bodies are willing
to offer encouragement TO the woolen
mill people. and. II they erect a plant
worth $4,000 Oncluding the site). they
will get the $4,000 which viii be rails
ed by the Joint committee. II the wool
cn mill proposition falls through. then
the bonus will be used 10 get some
other enterprise for tn city. There was
no doubt at last nights meeting that
the money could easily be raised.

fore. In a recent issue the following
statement was made:
THE four best salmon consuming
months of the year, May. June, July and
August. are ahead OF us. and In my
opinion salmon is going to be scarce
before the end OF the summer
Concerning the spot salmon market
the Commercial has the following 70
say:
The spot market for salmon Is hold
Ing its own remarkably well. consid-
ering the almost complete absence Of
demand during the past few months.
Holders Of Alaska fish almost with
out exception are firm on the basis OF
sL25 for red salmon. Occasionally a
small lot Of some not particularly de-
sirable brand may be picked up for
sL22kGS1.23h. but jobbers and the
larger holders generally decline to con-
slider offers under the price first men
toned
The market showed some weakness
following the arrival a month or so ago
from the coast OF the Z. NJ. Phelps, with
large cargo Of Alaska fish. and sales
were reported as low as $1171z. Prices
soon recovered. however and the mar
ket has now been on its present basis
for several weeks.
Under ordinary circumstances. the
very slack demand for salmon which
has prevailed for some time would have
brought about decidedly easier mar
ket. Stocks Of salmon on the SPOT and
throughout the country. however, are
generally believed to be very light. far
lighter than is usual at this time Of the
year. and holders for this reason have
not been inclined to urge sales, even
though there Eas been virtually no de-
mand worth considering"

OTTAWA OFFICIALS TO DECIDE,

on the British Columbia salmon indus
try United States Consul Smith. at
Victoria, says;
"As this is the fourth year since the
phenomenal run Of 1891 cannery men
confidently expect-as has been the case
every fourth season for some time--a
good run of salmon. and great prepara-
tions are in progress for the anticipat-
ed catch. The total pack Of salmon on
the coast last year IS placed in round
figures at 2,500,0O0 cases. OF this num-
Der. British Columbia furnished 5S3,.
419 cases. which realized the sum OF
$2,lS70OO.
1T is known that ;he salmon caught
on Puget sound originate in the Frazer
river in British Columbia. With view
to securing continuation of the sup

District Attorney Contends That

mate State Police Power.

District Attorney Harrison Allen re-
turned yesterday from Oregon City,
where he appeared for the state In the
case wherein the cOnstitutionallty Of the
fisheries law Is brought into question.
The case was an appeal from the trial
court. wherein sentence Of $50 vas I'M
posed on William butcher. who was
operating fish wheel In the run way In
the Willamette river near Oregon City.
II IL believed that the fish wheel men
Of the state are backing the case. with
a view 20 having the law declared TN
constitutional. thereby permitting the
operation Of fixed appliances In any
stream In the state. State Senator Geo.
g. Brownell and Representative a. s.

bell.
The appellants contention Is that the
act under which the prosecution was in
stituted. that IT, the section prohibit
ing the use OF fish wheels In the VII
lamette and other streams and permit
ting their use In the Columbia river IL
unconstitutional for the reason thar II
II a local law providing punishment for
crime and therefore in conflict with
the statute prohibiting local Legislation.
District Attorney Aliens reply was
in effect that II Is not local law. but
one passed by The legislature under the
police power Of the state regulating the
fishing industry and prohibiting fishing
with exhaustive appliances. That II
is a reasonable exercise Of the police
power Of the state for the protection
Of fishery. and Is n public statute ap-
plicable to all citizens alike who are de-
sirOus Of fishing In streams wherein the
use of wheels Is forbidden by the
law.
II does not prohibit fishing in any
stream In the state but merely restricts
the Use Of certain fishing appliances for
the benefit of the general public and
for the preservation to the public OF the
common law right Of fishery but ex-
cludinR those appliances destructive to
the industry.
The case was very thoroughly pre-
sented In briefs submitted TO Judge Nc
Bride. who took the case under advise
ment and reserved his decision.
