New, who was the democratic candle
date for reporter of the supreme court,

defeated for auditor of state, say they
have not changed their minds and Will
go ahead with preparations for the con-

ther investigation of Lake county na-
turaIization frauds, but others say
they will go ahead.

FISHING IS RESUMED
RARILY RESTRAINED FROM
INTERFERING.
Move Of Washington Legal Talent to
Keep Oregon Fishermen On
River Is Checkmated.

Portland, Or, Sept. 29.-By re-
straining order issued yesterday al
ternoon by Judge WOlverton In the
United States Court, the lOng-drawn
controversy over salmon fishing IN
the Columbia River between wash
ineton and Oregon salmon fishers Is
at an end until such time as the
United States supreme court mas de-
cided the Chris Nelson case, whlch
will be some time in December. lhls
means that fishing for salmon on the
Columbia River is thrown wide open
to regularly licensed fishermen, and
If sats AT rest all of the turmoil ana
strife caused by the conflicting laws
that have occasioned Master FISH
Warden McAllister so many sleep
less nights and legal arrangements
E. c.. Macdonald, of Spokane, as
sistant encouragement OF Washing
ton came armed with a petition
which, had it been granted, Woulo
have excluded the Oregon fishermen
from fishing in the Columbia river
while the Washington fishermen
could have fished unmolested.
The petition for injunction was
adroitly drawn, but Attorney-General
Crawford, who has been looking al
ter the legal end Of the matter iof
Master Fish Warden McAllister and
Oregon, was not to be caught.
The matter was taken up and the
Washington petition was SO amended
that it included fishing over the en-
tire river. Then, when the case was
presented to Judge Wolverton. the
injunction prevailed.
Under the restraining order issued
by Judge Wolverton, fishing In the
Columbia river now stands as 1t d.d
before the two conflicting laws be-
came effective, but the restraining
order only holds until the United
States supreme court shall have
handed down its decision in the Nell
son case.

novel situation of strike OF Indian
laborers. Circumstances are report

care as could be expected OF thor

Range of Guns Almost Doubled.

Washington, Sept. 28.-The Wal
Department has recently made Inn
provemenis in powder and in shells
which promise to increase the ef-
fective range of ordnance about rs
per cent. Tests of the powder have
recently been made at Sandy Hook
with excellent results. The formula
used in the new powder is secret.
The improvements would make
the 12-inch shell effective at IL to Ia
miles. If these results are realized
in actual warfare it will be possible
to engage an enemy before he can
get anywhere near fighting distance.
and annihilate him before he can
either escape or get within ngntlhS
