over the falls at Oregon City the last
Of June or early in July, but this was
caused by the shallowness of the water
below the falls early in the year, and
the fish after reaching the falls we're
compelled TO wait until the back water
from the Columbia raised the stage Of
the water below the falls to enable the
FISH to climb over the rocks to the wa
ters Of the upper river. The improve
ments made enable the fish TO ascend
the river when they FIRST reach the
falls, and the result is they come up
fully month earlier and proceed to the
upper rivers
In investigating the river at Mill
City and Mebama, he was informed
that no salmon had come up this year,
but when he came up to Gates he re.
ceived the information from men who
are constantly on the river that the
salmon in large numbers had passed
up early in May and had gone to the
upper river far above Detroit.
Mr.. Van Dusen states that the rea-
son no one had seen salmon in the Will
lameete river at this point was that
they had all passed here long before
any one thought Of looking for the
fish, and that hereafter salmon would
be found in the river early in May, and
that trolling for salmon would be good
sport here next spring.
Mr.. Van Dusen will make further
investigation Of the Santiam in a short
time, and IL the outlook is favorable
he will establish hatchery at some
point ON The river where salmon eggs
may be secured for Matching purposes.
He goes TO Astoria today, as he wishes
TO be on the ground when the closed
season on the Columbia river begins
at noon today.-Albany Herald.

road ties for use in the construction Of
the branch from Tonopah to Goldfelds
They will be shipped direct from Port

For some time past large lots Of ties
have been purchased here by railroads
in the East, and it is explained by lum.
bermen that the oregon fir tie is sought
after because they last much longer in
the desert country.
Portland has been the shipping
point foE ties for several years. On
Lewis river are located a few plants
which cut ties in largo quantities, and
from there the material is barged 10
this city and then shipped by rail.
There are certain parts Of the timber
from which ties are cut that Is saved

creased activity in railroad construc.
tion over the entire country there is
an active market for ties, aud some
orders have been offered here which
could not be handled, as the mills were
busy filling other requirements.

NO HOPE FOR MRS. ROGERS.
Vermont Woman Is Doomed TO Hang
Tunaorrow.

Montpelier. VT, Feb. 2.-Governor
Bell made statement this morning
which foreshadows the fate of Mrs.
Mary Rogers, under sentence to die
on the gallows at Windsor tomorrow,
for the murder of her husband
Governor Bell said: 81 don't be-
lieve the people of Vermont desire
Mary Rogers to be granted a reprieve,
I am greatly surprised that the sher-
IF of Windsor came before me with
petition for reprieve." The COVER
nor's final decision will be made
this afternoon.
Governor Bell granted the reprieve
on the ground that the woman claims
she has not had fair trial. The evil
dence presented against her is false
she said, and complains that the laws
of Vermont are cruel and barbarous'

"Our Eastern offices are crying
for information about the West"
said r. B. Wilson, travelling freight
and passenger agent of the Burling-
ton, to the East Oregonian today
I'VE want circulars from every city
in the Northwest, this spring. Tour
lists and homeseekers are already
writing thousands of letters to the
general offices for specific informa-
ton, statistics and facts, concerning
the different points of interest in
this state, Washington and Idaho,
and we are unable to supply complete
information. because so many cities
have neglected to issue any form of
statistical circular which can be sent
to an inquirer.
"In my offices at Walla Walla l
have large supplies of circulars from
several prominent points, including
North Yakima, Walla Walla, Dayton,
Lewiston, and other Northwest points,
but none concerning Umatilla county
nor Pendleton. We do not wish to
discriminate. We would very much
like to have some information of the
leading points in the Inland Empire,
leaving the homeseekers to choose
for themselves, after having read all
the circulars We might furnish them.
This year will bring to the West
a large number of homeseekers with
money to invest, 1t will not be a
shiftless, moneyless class that will be
attracted to your country this sea-
son. Every community needing a
good clas of citizenship. with money
to invest in making permanent homes
in the West, should be interested in
placing the right kind of information
before the intending homeseekers.
THE railroads will distribute any
thing printed and furnished to their
offices. They cannot now begin to
answer the inquiries which the head
offices receive concerning the North
west. No other part OF the country
has attracted so much notice as this"

L. C. Rurt, the father of The IA
year-old boy, Ernest Burt, who ran
away several days ago with the Nor
rison boy, seems to be doing all he
can do, in his Strengthened circum-
stances, for the return of his son.
He is in receipt of a letter from a
man who signs himself Frank Hud-
son." which letter was mailed at
Hillyard, Wash. saying the boy is
with him, and asking for money with
which ito pay the lads railroad fare
to this place, and for a little more
to pay for his board since his release
by the Spokane police.
As the boy does not himself write,
Mr.. Burt is suspicious, thinking the
lad is in the hands of someone who
wishes TO graft him. At the same
time. his circumstances are such that
he cannot go to any expense to secure
a proper investigation of the affair.
Mr. Burt came here from Philadel-
phia with the boy Ernest, four
months ago, and secured employment
in the Forster planning mill, where he
is working now. Mrs Burt, with the
six younger children, arrived Decem-
ber rs. The Burts' sole income is the
fathers daily wage, and they have no
resources aside from 1t.

Madison, Wis, Feb. 2.-Governor
La Follette's back tax measure passed
the senate today, having already
passed the house. 1t gives the state
power to collect taxes from the rail-
roads for the last six years, instead
of two. 1t is expected to net the
state $1,500,00O from the railroads
This is triumph of the La Fol-
lette campaign against the railroads,
as it was one of the issues in the re-
cent state and presidential election in
Wisconsin.
Another measure which Governor
La Toilette hopes to carry in the leg
islature is one compelling all tax
payers to pay their taxes on the date
fixed by law, notwithstanding any
differences between the taxpayer and
the assessor, in the matter of values
This is for the purpose of preventing
railroads from holding back thous-
ands of dollars in taxes, while litiga-
tion is pending.
The victory of Governor La Toilette
over the opposing forces, in tie re-
cent campaign is complete, the legis-
lature being solidly in favor of the
reforms advocated by the governor.

the czar intends to give the people
a constitution. Well informed per-

ing up of the reforms outlined in the

general opinion is that some reforms
will shortly be inaugurated, but it is
thought they will take the form of
an extension of self-government, more

was desirable to withdraw from the
scene as soon as possible. In re-
sponse to the question, CLAUDIO said it
