In another column will be found an
interview OF HI. M. Hutchin, special
agent, who visited Alaska and Puget
Sound last year. The conditions pre-
vailing there are equally true of the
Columbia river. 1t now lies with our
legislators whether or rot the salmon
industry will be perpetuated. If, as
in the past, they permit personal
interests to prevail, the industry is
doomed. They may make display
about hatcheries, but hatcheries,
alone will not be sufficient to
save the industry 1t will be we'll
for the legislature of Washington and
Oregon to read the statement of special
Agent HI. M. Hutchin, and make an
effort enact such laws as will protect
the Observation-Disclosures Gazette. ~

Big Oyster Company Formed.


AS showing the growth of compar-
atively new industry, articles of incor-
porasion have been filed with the Sec
rotary of state by the Washington
Oyster company, a large corporation
recently formed for the cultivation OF
eastern and imported oysters, by
Frank d. Black and Ed. B. Palmer OF
Seattle, B. F. Houston and M. Roy
Thompson of Tacoma, the latter being
general manager and engineer in
charge of the diking, H. A. Van AM
ringe,, Richard Becker and John F.
Loqghran. all of whom are we'll known
business and professional men in the
state.
This movement represents The con-
solidation Of body of oyster culturist
whose various holdings embrace some
two hundred and twenty acres in Madi-
son lagoon, Kitsap county, spot a
few miles north of the states propa-
cation station at Keyport, and one
that has been pronounced ideally SUIT
able for this growing industry.
Arrangements are already on foot
for the shipment of two carloads of
OF seed, chiefly Of the Blue Point
variety, which are to be planted in
April to be followed by another ship
ment in October
This j. the direct ontgrowth Of 1.-THE
states recent successful experiments

having proved that the eastern variety
grows even more rapidly and attains
Its inll size in the waters of Puget
Sound AS in its eastern habitat, and
the sllccrsSnf this new enterprise. IS
undoubtedly assured 4 tits hoped that
eastern oysters Of full size and fine
flavor, which have Unconstitutional merit
of hasing been raised in this state, will
soon he a luxury that will be within
the reach all,
When IT. is remembered that the
state uf Connyticnt has some 50 600

producer. The Japanese variety Of

and it is hoped that this win be but,
the forerunner of other enterprises Of
e similar character.-Olympian.

1t is now generally known and under
stood that Drunkenness is disease and
not weakness. A body filled with poison,
and nerves completely shattered by
periodical or constant use of Intoxicating
liquors, requires an antidote capable of
neutralizing and graduating this poison,
and destroying the craving for intoxi-
cants. Sufferers may now cure them
selves at home without publicity or loss
of time from business by this wonderful
"HOME GOLD CURE" which has been
perfected after many years OF close study
and treatment OF inebriates. The faith
full use according to directions of this
wonderful discovery is positively guar
anteed to cure the most obstinate case,
records show the marvellous transforma-
ton of thousands of Drunkards into
sober, industrious and upright men.

but is specific for this disease only, and
is SO skillfully devised and prepared that
it is thoroughly soluble and pleasant to

edge of the person taking it. Thousands
of Drunkards have cured themselves
with this priceless remedy, and as many
more have been cured and made tenn
perate men by having the "CURE" adj
ministered by loving friends and relatives
without their knowledge in coffee or tea,
and believe today that they discontinued
drinking of their own free will. DO

Pullman
Ordinary Sleepers

The tourist travel between the East
and the Pacific Coast has reached enor-
nous proportions in the last few years,
and calls for special class OF equipment.
To meet this demand the Pullman Com
pany has issued from its shops what it
technically calls the pullman Ordinary
Sleeper" These cars appear similar to
the regular sleepers, being built on the
same plan, but not furnished with the
same elegance. They are equipped with
mattresses, blankets, sheets, pillows,
pillow cases, towels, combs, brushes, etc.,
requiring nothing OF the kind to be fur.
nished by the passenger. Each car has
a stove for making tea and coffee and
doing eight housekeeping" and each
section can be fitted with an adjustable
table. A uniformed porter accompanies
each car, his business being to make up
berths, keep the car clean, and look after
the wants and comforts of the passen-
gers. In each of the trains which are
dispatched daily from Portland by the o.
K. 4 N. Co. is to be found one Of these
"Pullman Ordinary Sieepers." The car
attached to the Chicago Portland
Special" goes through to Chicago with
out change, and the one in the ATLANTIC
Express" runs to Kansas City without
change. Passengers in this car for Chi
cago change to a similar car at Granger.
Much of the first class travel is teing
carried in these cars, the rates being
lower, and the service nearly equal to
that in the palace sleepers. :.

ing folders, write to A. l.. CRAIG, Cen
