and unanimous enthusiasm, to back
the record OF the evening.
DR.. Emil Emma, aided most ably by
Mrs. DR.. A. A. Finch, had charge OF
the ensemble, and will act as director
and assistant director in the future, a
preconceived and finally accepted
circumstance, that means everything
for the good and perpetuity OF the

There is yet much to do, both in a
technical and business way, before

and Independently, such as the tor
mualtion of the constitution and the
laiyng out Of the courses and classe;
and such matters, all OF which will be
finally disposed of at another meet

Astoria is to be congratulated upo'
the achievement Of this thing, an
further that it rests in the hands 9
such people as DIR, Emma and MRS

THAT MASS MEETING
ON FRIDAY
ARRANGEMENTS BEING PER-
FEcTED TO MAKE IT A REC
oRD-BREAKING MANIFESTO
TION IN BEHALF OF THE
SALMON INDUSTRY HERE.

The fact that the great mass meet
ing set for next Friday night, at the
Astoria Opera House, is to be devot-
ed to the full and ample discussion
of the relative merits of the two fish
ing bills pending before the initiative
of the people of Oregon, should
easily account for an audience that
will stagger that building to hold, and
then some. The salmon industry, in
peril, or out OF it, should draw the
last man in Astoria from any en-
gagement he can break with decency
and safety.
There will be number of speakers,
the most of them expert exponents
of the big trade, and all will do their
best to be entertaining and instruc-
tive, and all hands should attend in
order to learn what is best for him
to know about the industry that
looms largest and nearest his own
door. Mayor Wise will preside, and
the vice presidents Of the evening
will be George w. Orton, president
of the Columbia River Salmon Pro-
tective Association, of Portland;
Senators w, T. Sholfeld, and John
H. Smith; DR., Jay Tuttle, DR.. H. L.

That the fishing industry Of th'

From Eyerybody's Magazine.
There are New England cardrooms in
which the cotton-haze is SO thick that
you don't rub it out of your eyes. You
pick it out. And you try your best to
cough it out of your lungs, because it
tokles, bae you can't. It gets down and
stays down in such quantities that you
really, physically (as well as mentally,
know it's there.
Ard there are New England spinning
rooms ann weave rooms which for heat
and moisture are more like equatorial
swamps than like work rooms in the
northern temperate zone.
This is not the testimony of one man
alone, but of all men who have visited
New England cotton mills. An English
publicist for instance, named Young
T. NJ. Young-made a tour of American
cotton towns not long ago on behalf of
the Manches Guardian. He was not a
hostile critic. Quite the contrary. But
he did not admire our sanitary as much
