Beginning Of Industry.


The industry was evolved from the
practice OF Columbia river salmon
packers. begun about twelve years ago
of shipping frozen fish to Europe. where
there was a large demand for smoked
salmon, but small supply OF fresh
fish. For several years the fish smok-
ers there used the frozen fish. thawed,
salted and smoked them. but the pro-
cess did not prove satisfactory. Mean
while. experiments had been made in
packing In light brine. and packers
had arrived at process for preparing
that Is now known as mild cured, or
picked, salmon. BY this process. as
described by J. r. Mason. superInten-
dent of the Pacific Cold Storage Com
pany. the fish are packed in light
weight brine. giving them Just enough
salt and retaining all the Juice and
flavor. After being held in cold stor-
age for eight or ten months. they are
still almost fresh, and nice cure will
give them a very rich flavor when
properly smoked.
In packing only the largest fish are
used, those Weighing over 20 pounds, a
great many being packed that weigh
over so pounds. The largest fish bring
the best prices, as the large sides make
a thick slice when cut up and do not
dry out too much in the process Of
smoking. which usually requires two
or three days. and should be done to
produce the best results In or near
the place where consumed. 1t Is said
to be the very best Of the salmon busl-
ness and sells for more than any grade
OF frozen or canned salmon.

THE FEATURES OF YES
TERDAY'S GAME

A good sized crowd of people went
TO Traction Park yesterday afternoon
to see the ball game between Marion
I.odge No. IL, l. o. O. T. and Palatine
Lodge No. II I. o. o. F., and Palatine
players on each Tide had not thrown
a ball since they were schoofboys and
then they played with yarn ball.
However they were not afraid OF
hurting their hands and each side
went into it with the determination to
win. There were plumbers, plaster
ers, carpenters, lawyers, doctors
members of nearly all trades and pro-
fessions-and they put up a game
equal to that played by some of our
people who think they are fairly good
amateurs. The fat man made good
appearance in his scarlet uniform and,
Notwithstanding the fact that he car
ried a heavy load of avoirduDois, he
played a good game, and by stealing,
bases, showed that he could run when
necessary. For a time 1t seemed the
Falatine Lodge would beat, but Ma
rion Lodge came in at the last in
ming and made thirteen runs.
The players are all busy men and
this half day of pleasure will do them
good. The following is the lineup and
score:

REASONS FOR HIS
PREFERENCE.

Wheeling Telegraph
The Hon. Charles F. Teter gave an
interview last night in which he said
he would use his influence to make
Senator Stephen 3. Elllins chairman
of the convention. and he gave ex-
celIent reasons for the preference.
"Mr. Elkins is the leader of the Re
publican party in West Virginia, y
said Mr.. Teter, land l have all con-
fience in him. All | want is a chair
man who Will see that all the dele
their votes counted. ! know that Sen
ator Elkins will be fair to me and
to all others, and l think it is due to
him as a party leader and fair
minded man that he be selected for
chairman"
at has been reported" said the
Telegraph reporter, that Mr.. Daw-
son will insist upon William P. Hub
bard for chairman"
Yes said Mr.. Teter. 81 have heard
of it and am not at all surprised at
it, for Mr. Hubbard is strong sup
porter of Mr.. Dawson. do not ask
for any partisan to act in my behalf in
that capacity. All ! asy is that fair
and impartion man be selected for
chairman, and ! know that my own
interests as well as those OF every
other man, would be safe in the hands
of Senator Elkins. Therefore, shall
use my influence to have him elected
as chairman Of the convention.

This caused the audience to grow res

increased as he proceeded. ..-
Several times the chairman viSor-
ously but vainly sought to gain for
him a hearing. At the end of one
hour Daniel had at last passed through
the ordeal. He moved that the plat
form be adopted without change. The
motion was carried with the votes OF
about three-quarters of the delegates.
The platform was adopted with a
whoop.
Chairman Clark arose. The clerk"
he said, will call the roll of States
for nominations for President" The
supreme moment was at hand, and
the crowd simply thrilled with excite

Glad nc see him, the crowd cheered
when he appeared. D9t they cileered
more vigorously when he got into MS
excellent nominating speech. Little
ton is of the school OF orators called

the utmost recesses of the hall. His
speech. TOO, was OF a high order, and
the bright things in it were literally
applauded.
In closing. he appealed in turn to
the delegates of the different sections
Of the country, and ended By pro
nounctns the name of Judge PARKER.
1t had the effect of a bombshell.
In an instant the hall rang With the
roars OF thousands. The delegates
stood upon their chairs and wildly
waved flags. Georgia hoisted a Parker
banner. Michigan men with Parker

way through the aisles among the res

and spectators, inspiring the crowd to
whoop it up a little stronger. Their
presence had the effect of bringing
stration. At the end OF the fifteen
minutes pictures of Judge Parker We're
sprung on the audience and the crowd
broke out even louder than before.
Kentucky seconded the nomination
OF Parker. Ex-Congressman Thomas
II. Ball. Of Texas, in a strong speech
declared for the New Yorker Louis
lana followed suit.
Maine yielded to Missouri. and the
eloquent Champ Clark presented the
name of Senator COclirell, of Missouri.
1t was one of the best speeches of
the night. Clark Won his audience at
the start with the declaration ellis

Newspaper Rulings.
soME INTERESTING DECISIONS AY UNITRD
STATES SUPREME COURT As TO THE
LIABILITY OF SUBSCRIBERS.

L. If subscribers order the discon-
t%inuance of their periodicals, the pub
Usher may continue tn send same until
all arrearages are paid.
.. If subscribers refuse to take
their periodicals from the p~ostofiice to
which they are addressed, they are re-
sponsible until they have settled their
bills and ordered the paper Tor other
periodically discontinued.
3 If subscribers move to other
PAGES without informing the publisher,
and the papers are sent to the former
address, subscribers are responsible.
4 The Court has decided that re-
fusing to take periodicals from the
postofice, or removing and having
them uncalled for, is prima facie evi.
dence of intentional fraud.
3. If subscribers pay in advance,
they are bound to give notice at the
end of the time if they do not wish to
continue the periodical; otherwise the
publisher is authorized to continue
sending it and the subscriber is respon-
sible until an cypress notice, with pay
ment of all arrearages, is sent to the
publisher.
6 The latest postal laws arc such
that a newspaper man can arrest any
n for fraud that takes his paper and
refuses to pay for it Under the law,
the man who allows his subscription to
run along Tor some time unpaid and
then orders it discontinued, or orders
the postmaster to mark it refused and
has a postal card sent notifying the
publisher of such fact, renders himself
liable to prosecution, arrest and fine,
the same as for theft.
