WASHINGTON APPRECIATION.

1t was with keen pleasure that all
who are interested in collegiate rivalry
in sports. and who braved the inclement
weather Of yesterday afternoon (Satur-
day), saw the football teams of the uni
versities OF Washington and Oregon
meet once more, says the P.-I.
And there was nothing in the game to
distract from the satisfaction. 1t was
clean, hard, skillful football from the
first kickoff until the teams trotted of
the rain-soaked field.
Washington won by a narrow mar
gin Of to s. the slippery condition OF
the ground and ball probably being the
reason for the failure Of Oregon to con-
vert her touchdown, and thereby to tie
the score. But Captain Speidell kicked
his goal under even more trying cir
cumstances. and the honors are clearly
with washington.
But, better than all the skill and the
pluck ana the training shown on both
sideswas the cleanness of the game. No
undue roughness had been expected,
and none was seen. In all the desper-
peration of the struggle-and desperate
it was. as the score shows-no one for
got that not only his own good name,
but that of his college as we'll, was at
stake.
Hearty congratulations go to Wash
ington. and the appreciation of manly.
clean and formidable foemen to Oregon.
Well done, both,

From the statements of the fish ex-
perts of the states of Oregon and Wash
ington, it is evident that there is press
ing need for greater output of hatchery
salmon. BY this 1t is not meant that
the output has been unsatisfactory in
the past, for the propagation plants
have done excellent work considering
the limited amount Of money available.
But more funds are required to carry
on the work Over in Washington four
sound hatcheries have been closed
down, and in the Columbia river dis
trict of that state three plants have
been forced to suspend operations. The
shutdown has been due TO the failure OF
the salmon run on the sound, and con-
sequent loss of license money. In Ore
gon we must close some of our plants
next year If more funds are not avail
able. Fully $4,000 IS required to con-
duct the Oregon hateheries, while the
amount available does not exceed $1S,-
900. Licenses of all kinds are too low,
and it is officially recommended that
an increase be made. Fishermen will
object, for the same reason, no doubt,
that they have heretofore decried hatch
cry work. The packers will not object
so much, nor the fish dealers. because
they know the salvation Of the fishing !
industry depends on hatchery work.
However much complaint there may be
licenses should be increased. The re-
quirements of the various plants must
be determined and the licenses fixed ac-
cordingly. There is no valid reason
why the value of our salmon fisheries
should not be $6,OOO,OOO or 100000 an
unally. instead of half the sum, and it
is to be hoped that steps will be taken
to provide the funds which will bring
about this increase in the market price

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreadful disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages, and
that is catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure
is the only positive cure known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh being a
constitutional disease, requires con-
stitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting di-
rectly upon the blood and mucous
surfaces of the system, thereby de-
stroying the foundation of the dis
ease, and giving the patient strength
by building up the constitution and
assisting nature in doing its work.

How New Member of Commons Rose
From the Depths of Poverty.

From the Depths of Poverty.
Will Crooks, the labor leader. whose
election to the British parliament from
the nominally safe borough of Wool
witch came as a serious blow to the
Balfour government, was born in pow
erty and owes his success as, much to
the heroism and devotion of his moth
er as to his own indomitable courage
and perseverance.
AS a lad of nine VIII Crooks lived
with his mother in the poorhouse at
Poplar. one of the working class sub
urbs of London. More than forty years
have passed since then. Crooks is now
chairman of the Poplar board of guard
lans 0he same that ordered his family
into the poorhOusel, mayor of the dis
trict. member of the London county
council. the body which governs the
metropolis, and holder as well of a
Number of less important offices. Be
sides he is now member OF parliament
for the borough formerly represented
t7y Lord Charles Beresford.
Will Crooks mother was heroine.
When her husband died. she had seven
little children to provide for, of whom
Will was the eldest. She made a
rlNcky fight to keep out of the poor
house. and 1t was against her will that

she and her babies were obliged to ac-
cept relief. She did not remain long,
however, and the first thing the guard
Ians knew she was out again and fight
ing for a living.
At the age of eleven Will left school
and went to work in a blacksmith's
shop. Later he learned the trade of
cooper. He became interested in the
labor cause and his strong personality
soon sent him to the front and he be-
came a power in labor circles.
The rest of his story. is similar to that
