THE SALMON ARE PACKED.

With sixteen an one-half millions
Of pounds of choice Columbia river
salmon snugly packed and ready for
market, the 1908 season closed at noon
yesterday, and the 5000 men engaged
in the fisheries are, so far as that in
dustry here is concerned, idle, and
free to indulge any of the pleasures or
pursuits that invite them.
The yield is practically normal, be-
ing but few thousands of cases short
of the $4,000 that measures that con-
dition; the season has been marked
by more than ordinary loss of life,
and this circumstance, while it is al
ways regrettable, seems to be unamen-
able to change or correction. The
business is one that holds the lure Of
danger at every turn, and the hardi-
hood and courage that meets the in
separable perils of the pursuit, must
sponsor the record Of disaster.

CIVIC AMENITIES.

For once the business men of As
toria have gone on record as deeply
sensible of the deliberate and uncon-
sionable discourtsey Of the Portland
Chamber of Commerce when, a few
years ago, it left big group of visit
mig Astorians twiddling their thumbs
on the thoroughfares up there after
having invited them to the metropolis
for commercial conference, and we
glory in the spunk of the men who, on
Monday night last, at the Astoria
Chamber, gave out the word of resent
ment and reprisal, in the discussion OF
the Portland Chambers suggestion
that its members come down here for
a business talk
There was no ill-will manifest,
no abuse, no discounting of the men
nor the errand; but a quiet, half-hu-
morous, determined purpose to drive
nome the unpleasant CONVICTION or the
raw, and well remembered, slight
thrust upon our people. The Port
landers may come, or not, as they see
fit. Personally each gentleman that
comes will receive all the welcome
that is due him, from his personal
friends, and as man of affairs from
all whom he shall meet in business
sense, or quest; but the idea of pub
lie reception, and the attendant wining
and dining and kow-towing that marks
such interchanges, that is all past and
gone; and the day of its passing was
set by the Portlanders themselves.

THE "WEINHARD-ASToRIA.

After the doubt and misapprehen-
sion incident to the long delay in work
on the "Weinhard-Astoria" hotel, in
this city, Mr.. Wessinger, head OF the
Weinhard Estate trustees, has declar-
ed, in unequivocal terms, that the
building OF the beautiful house will go
forward in the early spring and that
nothing shall stop it until it is round
ed out in perfect completion and ap-
pointment, and this means that inside
the comig year, Astoria will possess
as fine hostlery as any city of its
size in the Northwest.
We may make the most of the fact
that the delay has been INDUCED, pri-
marily, because the builders desired to
patronize home trade and use Astoria
materials in the structure; in itself a
sharp lesson to many OF our people
who are not overly inclined to this
doctrine, either in precept or practice,
There is nothing in the category of
local wants SO pronounced as this
splendid improvement; its attainment
will put Astoria we'll to the front with
the travelling wor1 |, which is inclin-
ed to dodge her on the score of her
unsatisfactory hotel Accommodations
and ancient appointments and service
generally in this behalf 1t cannot be
doubted for an instant that what the
Weinhard people shall devise in the
way of hotel will be of the best and
latest in every direction, and the city
is fortunate in having so essential an
Improvement emanate from such
source.

OUR NEW WATER SUPPLY.

All Astoria is hoping the Water
Commission will come through sue.
cessfully with its new project for ad-
ditional supply and reservation, and
that ii will build the larger reservoir,
This is one element of the city govern
ment that has done things well after
thinking them out, and it is entitled
to success because of the definite and
business-like interest it takes in the
trust conhded to it.
Despite all croaking, Astoria is
growing steadily, and it will not be
many years until the accessions now
projected in this department will have
to again be increased, and it were well
to so build, now, that the interim may
be longer and the future costs conser-
we'd by the experience and advantage
OF the past sound achievement.
One of the pronounced civic blum
ders made by Astoria was in voting
this commission out of its present sta
tus and making the system elective;
poor and cheap expedient to amplify
the wing and sway of the present
push but which will, if all goes well,
be made to react decisivly before
many months have passed.

the millionaire persuaded Captain Hams
that he was on the wrong track.
This incident was brought forward to
day by a friend of Annis TO prove that
Captain Hams was cropping in the dark.
that he suspected number Of men
and that he was not sure he had the
