lection Of the salmon industry Of the
State Of Oregon indicates imbecility
in the FIRST degree. While the lasr
session viii go down in history as one
OF the most pernicious, the failure OF
affording adequate protection to one
OF the largest industries OF the state
cannot but meet with universal con-
demnation. To intimate that errors
were committed in framing the FISH.
ing laws, is but to throw the mantle
Of charity around the members of the
law-making body Of this common
wealth. II the truth were known, 1t
Is evident that the trainers of the
present law were actuased more by \
disposition to grant special privileges
to a certain section, against the larg-
est section, irrespective of its ulti-
mate results.
AS the matter now stands. instead
OF protecting the great industry, 1t
has been prostituted to the avaricious
incentive Of the Willamette river fsh-
ermen, who have always been dis
turbing factor in securing adequate
laws. Instead Of protecting the in
dustry and allowing the spring sal
mon, the Royal Chinook. to ascend
to the natural spawning grounds, the
legislature threw down the barriers
in the interests Of handful Of ire
spousibIe fishermen. who have no in
terest in the protection OF the indus
try. their only object being to take
of the ignorance Of the
legislature on the important subject
for their personal and private inter
ests and gain.
It is now conceded, that the only
possible chance Of protecting this
great industry, is to place it in the
hands OF the general government, and
not delegate it to the Vaccinations
of those who have no interest, aside
of selfish one. In the hands of the
general government, the industry will
be protected. In the hands Of non
de-scripts who controlled the recent
legislature, il continued along present
lines, will ultimately result in its ex-
tinction. and when this has been
accomplished no future remedial
legislation will restore it. The indus
try belongs to the people, irrespec'
tive Of locality, and the duty devolves
upon the law making power to throw
around it every possible protection,
not only for the present. but for
posterity.

JUDGE T. A. MCBRIDE

The distinguished honor conferred
upon Hon. +. a. Mcbride by Cover
nor Benson, in appointing him to the
supreme bench of the State of Ore
gon, is deserving recognition OF the
services Of one OF the most distin-
guished jurists in the state. When il
was announced that the appointment
had been made, il met with the uni
versal approval Of not only the bar
Of Oregon, but Of its citizenship. No
man stands higher in the estimation
of the public than the veteran iurist'
No man who has been on the circuit
bench for nearly 20 years, has given
SO general Satisfaction, both to attor-
neys and litigants. On the bench his
decisions we're given with distinct
ness and fairness, irrespective of per-
sonal feeling toward his friends. It
was a universal comment among at
torneys that Judge Mcbride was sell
dom reversed by the higher courts,
indicating his fairness and knowledge
Of law.

courteous and possessed a peculiar
faculty Of making friends On the
bench he was dignihed, impartial in
his decisions, conscientious and just
in his administration of justice, tenn
pering mercy with justice, and this
characteristic won him many friends
among the people His appointment
to the important place on the su-
preme bench will be Of incalculable
assistance to his associates, and his
legal acumen and capabilities will
tend to make the highest tribunal in
the state one Of the safest in the rem
dition of important decisions submit
ted to it.
In the appointment Of Judge Nc
Bride. Astoria has lost valued, tried
and true friend. The state has gained
an eminent jurist whom all respect
and honor. While the honor con-
ferred was a recognition Of his valu-
able services, it was a deserving COM
pliment to one of the pioneers of
Oregon, and when in future years the
history Of the state is written, Judge
Thomas A. Mcbride will hold high
and exalted position in its annals,
and will ever be remedied for the
good he has done to mankind.
