TEN THOUSAND THERE
Baby Trout put in Lake-They Came
From the Clackamas Hatchery.

! A curious and interesting Ship
nent passed out west on the Va
quina train Friday. It comprised
10, 900 little lake trout. Each was
about an inch long. They were il
five huge milk cans, 1000 to the
can, and they darted here and
there in the water with all the an
tics characteristic of fish life. In
the water, the man in charge, oc-
casiona11y placed a chunk of ice, SO
suiting the quantity as to keep the
temperature at about so degrees.
Now and then the little fellows
came to the surface, holding their
noses at the very waters edge, and
at such times the man took cup
and stirred up the water, the pur-
pose being to increase the amount
of air in the water, the necessity
being denoted by the action of the
fish in coming themselves to the
surface after air. ....
The young fish came from the
Clackamas hatchery and were put
into small lake on the farm of
Wallis Nash on Rock Creek. A
conveyance was in waiting at the
railroad station, and when the
train arrived, the big cans. were put
aboard and carted to the lake,
where the little fish were set
adrift. The latter is small lake,
formed by a mountain slide several
years ago, and fed by the waters
of Rock Creek.
The little trout are three months
old. They were hatched at the
C1ackanas hatchery, maintained by
the state of Oregon. They are sup
piled free of charge to responsible
persons, the purpose being to stock
the streams and lakes of the state
with fish to attract, interest and
profit the people. The man in
charge was Mr4Lugger, known to
several people in Corvallis. He
said that in two years the little
trout will be eight inches long, or
Their growth there
after will be rapid, and they will
under favorable conditions, attain a
large size. They are a very gany
fish, and are much sought by
Sportsnen.
On the same day that the ship
ment above noted left the C1acka-
mas hatchery, another lot of 5000
baby Lake trout left the same place
to go to lake in Southern Ore
gon.

ADVERTISING YAQUINA
A Pamphlet Issued by the Corvallis &
Eastern-Varied Attractions,

It is undoubtedly true that,
as a summer resort, Yaquina Bay,
in point of diversity of attractions,
leads all other resorts on the Coast.
The fact is brought to the public
eye by a small pamphlet just issu-
ed by the Corvallis & Eastern. The
pamphlet is handsomely illustrated,
and contains descriptions of the
various attractions at Yaquina.
It reminds the reader that at other
resorts along the Coast, almost the
only recreation is walking on the
long stretches of beach, and then
proceeds to point out a few of the
many attractions at Newport.
First and most important among
these, the rock oyster is placed,
found only, as the world knows, at
Yaquina Bay, and at one point on
the coast Of Spain. 1t does not
exist anywhere else in the world.
A description of this biva1ve brings
out the fact of its great value as a
table de1icacy, and how with a rasp
like formation between its valves
it burrows its way through the
rocks in which it lives. The be-
ginning of this oyster is jelly like
egg that floats about in the water
for a few days, and then adheres
to the rock into which it subse-
quent1y burrows and develops into
a toothsome delicacy for the use of
men who go to Yaquina Bay OF the
coast of Spain.
Other seaside attractions are Civ
Ell brief space in the pamphlet. The
boating, bathing without danger
ous undertow, the trout fishing in
adjacent streams, deep-sea fishing
and fishing in the waters of the
bay, the deer hunting and drives to
Otter Rock, Cape FoulWeather,
Alsea Bay, all these diversities come i
in for brief and interesting treat
ment.
The indications are favorable
for a great crowd Of seasiders at
the bay this summer. Some of
he,cottages are already occupied,
and the trains are beginning to
show noticeable increase in pas
senger lists.

FOR SALMON SICKNESS
Curing Dogs of it-Men Follow the
Business-Make Immunes of

Will salmon kill dogs? Some of
the young professors at the college
experimental with a number of
dogs year or two ago, and fig
ured it out that salmon was
good dog diet. The FIVE dogs the
college men kept in pen for
some time, ate everything in the
salmon line with avidity, and
hungered all the time for more.
They grew fat on the ration, and
naturally enough is was concluded
that salmon would not kill dogs.
But over at Elk City they say
salmon or fish of nearly every kind
is almost certain death to any ca
nine that eats it. They have
hound pup there now that is in the
throes of distress from the effects
of sparing meal On fish. He is a
very sick dog. He was given
some of the coagu1ated blood from
the back of a big trout and a piece
of fish liver. The stuff was given
him with malice aforethought.
Two young men over there profess
to be able to make dogs immune
from the effects of fish diet. They
have never lost case. They feed
the dog on fish and then as soon
as he gets sick, they put him on
a diet of fresh milk and sulphur
By and by he gets so sick that he
wont take the beverage, and then
they pour it down his throat in
teacupfu1l doses. In time his mall
ady yields to the treatment, and |
when he gets well he can eat any
thing i'll the fish line without dam
age to his health.
The hound pup in question is
now taking his milk and sulphur.
He was fed fish ten days ago. He
took sick Sunday morning. In
nine days from the time he grew
i'll, it will be known whether OF not
he will live, so the men Of milk
and sulphur say. If he gets well
his owner pays the young man $5
for making him an immune. An
immune hound over in that coun-
try is worth $40 more than one
that is not an immune. If an i'm
nune, he can nose around in the
backyard or amb1e down by the
river or bay at will, and his owner
have perfect peace of mind. If not
be has to be kept tied up or fast
ened up in the smoke house Or
some other place, and his pro-
prietor is in constant perturbation
of soul.
The Elk Cityites say the reason
salmon did not kill the college dogs
was that the latter were immunes.

SOLD A FARM
Tennessean Bought it-0ats Market
Broke-New Time Schedule.

Morgan & Eg1in recently ne
gotiated the sale of what is known
as the Gates farm, owned by Ruff
us Skipton. The place is located
two and half miles from Philo
math. In comprises 100 acres, and
the price for which it was con-
tracted is $50 per acre. The pur-
chaser is a Tennessean. He paid
$50 down, and left for his home to
close UP his business, expecting to
return to Benton in the course of a
few months.
The bottom has dropped out OF
the oats market. The tumble
came Saturday when the local
price went down from 40 to 81 cents
per bushel. The occasion Of the
decline is the fact that the vessel
loading in Portland for South Af-
rica has secured a complete cargo,
and there is at present no further
demand for oats. Whether or not
the market will rally remains to be
seen. Fortunately, nearly all the
oats in this section of country has
been sold, and went mostly at the
higher figures.
A. new time card went into eff.
feet on the Corvallis & Eastern
Monday. It shortened materially
the time between Corvallis and the
Bay. The time in and out of Cor
wallis remains the same, leaving
for Albany at 1890 IN, and for
Yaquina at $50 p m. At Yaquina
the arriving time is 5:35 P. N, and
time 100 III. The ar
riving and leaving time at Albany
is 1915 and I2:45 p m respectively.
An effort will be made this season
to do the summer work with
mixed train.

CORVALLIS. OREGON JUNE 20. 1902.
4 EHAMBERLAIN AND FLAT SALARIES.

AHAMBERLAIN AND FLAT SALARIES
With respect to fiat salaries, Gov
ernor ELECT Chamberlain says in an
interview in Fridays Oregonian:
The platforms of both parties declared
in favor of fiat salaries for state offices,
and such salaries are contemplated by
: the constitution. It is my purpose to see
that no fees or perquisites are collected
in violation of the Constitution, after |
90 into office. What course l shall
pursue depends upon the action the leg
is1ature takes, If any act is passed con-
tinuing fees and perquisites, shall veto
the measure. If the legislature fails to
repeal any laws now in force which gives
fees to state officers, I shall take what
ever proceedings may be necessary to
prevent the collection ofthe money al
lowed by law in violation of the con-
stitution.
Sooner or later, the fiat salary
reform must come. Legal en-
tanglements may prevent it from
affecting newly elected state Off
GERS. Governor Geer's contem-
plated special session for the pur-
pose would, if the legislature agreed
accomplish it. But so far the de-
mand for the special session is not
pronounced, and it is possible that
if the legislature were assembled it
would ba1k.
However, the fiat salaries will
come. The people have voted for
them. Save ho1d-over senators,
every member of the legislature is
by platform promise pledged to
them. The vote and the platforms
are absolute and perfectly clear in
structions to legislators as to their
duty in the premises. The latter are
without choice in the matter, and
are in honor bound, to vote for
measures to promote the reform.
Failure so to do, will be political
suicide, for the attitude of the gov
ernor-elect will make agitation of
the subject widespread, and the de-
mand more imperative.
Butabove all, in the certainty
that the governors Office is to be
used in promoting it, lies the best
hope of the reform. The power of
that office is considerable. The
veto is itself legislative function.
In controversy over = fat salar
les and the adjustment of uncon-
stitutiona1 perquisites and fees, the
governor will have the people be-
hind him. They elected him be-
cause he pledged the reform, and
because they believed that what he
promised, he would perform. They |
selected him for governor because
they wanted this reform. If a con-
test comes, it will be contest with
the legislature ON one side and the
governor and the people on the
other. In such contests there is
always one outcome. The people
never lose. Flat salaries have been
ordered, and they will be.

THE PLATTE RIVER.


Omaha, Neb., March 6.-The food
in the Platte river caused by an ice
gorge, which formed above Louis
vile, while it has reached its climax.
is still causing great amount of
damage and the small town of
Meadow is submerged. Three bents
in the Missouri Pacific bridge were
carried out early yesterday and
caused that road to temporarily
abandon its tracks via the bridge
route and send trains via the Gilmore
and Plattsmouth line. A large force
OF men began work on the bridge
yesterday and trackmen are replac-
ing that portion washed out so that
trains may be running regularly to-
day.
The Rock Island tracks at Louis
vile and Meadow were under four
feet Of water yesterday. The river
yesterday afternoon found another
outlet and began pouring down the
new channel toward the Missouri,
thus relieving partially the flooded
bottoms. Further damage is not an
ticipated.

CUBAN RECIPROCITY.


Washington, March 6. Speaker
Henderson and Representative Can
non, Of Illinois, called at the white
house yesterday and discussed with
President Roosevelt the subject Of
Cuban reciprocity and sentiment
thereon in the house. Later in the
day Representative Tawney called at
the white house and had a confer
ence with the president. The presi-
dent is understood to have made his
proposition quite clear and in so do
ing is said to have removed several
misapprehensions which have been
ahoat of late. tie said he had no in
tention at present of sending spe-
cial message to congress on the sub
ject. The president expressed the
most earnest solicitude that a salts
factory adjustment be reached by
congress, saying that this was an Gin
herited problem" meaning that it had
come to him from the Mckinley ad-
ministration. Furthermore, the pres
dent, it is asserted, Indicted no posi-
tive determination in favor OF any
particular idea, but rather a desire
that congress should deal with the
subject according to its best lights.

AGAINST CONVICT LABOR.


Chicago, March G.-The Record
Herald says: Mandamus proceedings
are to be instituted against Gov.
Yates and the trustees and wardens
of the state penitentiaries at Joliet
and Chester, and of the reformatory
at Pontiac, to prevent the further
contracting of convict labor and to
induce the governor and subordinate
officials to obey the state organic
law in regard to convict labor. These
proceedings will be brought by the
State Manufacturers association OF
Illinois and representatives of the
Illinois Federation of Labor and the
Anti-Convict Labor league. As shown
by statistics secured by the manufac-
turers and the state federation OF la
Dor, there are now more than 1000
convicts in Illinois employed in lines
of manufacture which come into di-
rect competition with the free labor
of the state and manufactured arti'
Giles made outside Of prisons.

SUITS AGAINST RAILROADS.


Chicago, March S.-United States
District Attorney Bethea has re-
ceived instructions from the depart
ment of justice at Washington to be-
gin legal proceedings against rail-
reads centering in Chicago whose
officials testified before the inter
state commerce commission to in
| fractions of the law. 1t has not been
decided definitely what form the pro-
ceedings will take, but it is probable
that injunctions will be instituted.
Full instructions have not been re-
ceived by the district attorney and
probably will not be until the ar
rival of W. A. Day, who is the at
torney for the interstate commerce
commission. The latter body has re-
quested Mr.. Bethea to have Attorney
Day appointed special counsel to as
sst the government in prosecuting
the railroads and this will be done.
The district attorney yesterday re-
ceived from the interstate commerce
commission a transcript of the EVIL
dence taken in Chicago in two recent
hearings and also of the evidence
taken at sessions held recently in st.
Paul, Kansas City, Washington, New
York and other cities.

TROUBLE ON A RAILROAD.
Employees Of the Rio Grsnde Western =
Strike II Traiamastsr Cotter ID Not
Discharged.

Salt Lake City, March 6.-Accord-
ing to the Deseret News, unless the
present troubles between Trainmaster
Cotter, Of the Rio Grande Western,
and the employees of that system are
not settled before Thursday, the 18th,
a general tie-up Of the system may
occur at midnight on that date. 1t is
stated that committee representing
the tclegraphers, conductors, engi-
neers and trainmen's organizations
have taken up the matter with Man
ager Herbert, and the latter is ex-
pected to come to Salt Lake within
a few days to investigate the charges
brought against Trainmaster Cotter.
The latter, it is stated by the rail-
way employees, has recently dis
charged a number Of men, most Of
them old employees Of the. road, with
out giving them hearing, thus vio-
lating an agreement between the en-
ployes and Manager Herbert. 1t is
understood that the men have re-
quested the removal of Cotter. Both
Trainmaster Cotter and General SUI
perintendent Welby are out Of town
and no statement of the railroads
side of the case can be obtained.
II is not believed among the railroad
officials, however, that strike will
result.

SERIOUS CONFLICT PROBABLE.


Birmingham, Ala, March GA spe-
cial last night from Marion, Ala,
says: An organized mob of negroes
is marching toward this town with
the intention Of attacking the coun-
ty Jail and releasing two negro MUIR
derers, one of whom is Luke Sanders,
under sentence to hang to-day. Citi-
zen soldiery is being organized and
at nine o'clock so men were under
arms ready to meet the marching
negroes. Pickets have been thrown
out on every road leading into the
town, and if the mob appears a seri-
GUS conflict is feared. Early in the
night leading citizens held confer
ence and it was decided not to ask
the g,,,ernor for aid, as they believed
It to 'be the duty of the people to
enforce law and order.
