Legislative delegation and delegation

hearing before the board Of FISH COM

their protest upon the claim that the
only fishing they now get is from
April Is to May |, on account of the
annual rise Of the Willamette river,
which permits the salmon to ascend
that stream, whereas, when the CO.
lumbia begins to rise the FISH go up
that stream to the spawning ground.

Nav Appoint Reporter

One or more copies Of the law pro-
viding for the appointment of an ad'
ditional Judge in the Fifth judicial
district have been received here, In
the original bill it was provided that
the present court reporter was to
have the privilege Of appointing any
new reporter whose services might
be required; in other words, the pres
ent reporter Mr.. Runyon, whose
home Il in Portland, would have had
the right of naming the court report
er who would serve under the new
Judge, However, the Astoria attor-
neys objected to this provision and
lit was finally stricken out and a
clause inserted providing that the new
Judge shall have the privilege of ap,
pointing the new court reporter.

A FOUL AND COWARDLY.
PIECE OF WORK
FINE BRED MILK COW Be
LONGING TO DIR. OWENS
ADAIR rs KILLED.

| DR., Owens-Adair was in from her
fine farm home, "Sunnymeade' yes
terday and reports that she has just
negotiated a two.year lease Of the
property to Messrs. Tucker and Bee
Iby, who have taken oyer the property
and will handle il TO the best possible
advantage for all concerned during
that period.
The doctor tells a strange and un-
welcome story Of personal spite.work
which has just developed on her
place, and which, for deyilish concep-
tion and dirty work outriyais any
thing that has come to light in @Old
Clatsop' for many a long day
In the big herd OF fine cattle which
belongs to that place, and is owned
by DR.. Adair was a large and yalu-
able Holstein COW, and this animal
was included in the list Of property
turned over to the new lessees Of the
"Sunnymeade" personal property on
the FIRST Of the present month. Al
most Immediately thereafter, this COW
disappeared and Messrs. Tucker and
Beeby have made constant and fruit
less search for her all over the place
and the adjoining country, and had
all but abandoned the hunt. when on
Friday last, a clue was found in an
Iintolerable stencil issuing from one
Of the reserve haybarns on the farm,
and this being followed up, revealed
state Of affairs that is almost incon-
ceivable. Within this structure which
had not been used for many months,
and in which but few tons Of hay
were stored) and underneath mass
of rotting hay, and manure taken
there for the especial purpose, was
found the big Holstein. with her
throat cut, hamstrung, and her bowels
cut out and many OF them opened TO
permit the exodus Of gases to obviate
stencil as much as possible; the whole
thing indicating well calculated,
shrewdly devised, and shamefully in
spired scheme of personal spite or re-
venge. The work was done with
pitchfork, as the marks OF it were yet
evident in the debris that covered the
animal.
Doctor Adair has an excellent idea
of the authors and perpetrators (for
there must have been more than one
in the foul deed) and it is likely that
detectives and the law will be prompt
ly invoked to ferret out the real ami
mus and actors.
What OF cleverness was displayed
in the unwholesome transaction, lies
in the choice of the particular build
ing for the coneealment OF the car
cass after the cowardly work was done
on the unoffending animal. Its use,
and disuse, must have been well
known to the doers of this deed; it
was once the habitat, temporarily, OF
one OF the lessees of the farm, and
was afterward made use of to store
surplus hay and fodder in, and was
securely locked up against ali ordi-
nary use by the people on the farm;
and its exclusive condition and loca-
ton made it an admirable place for
hiding such crime and its evidences.
The deed and its peculiar despatch
made it very plain that it was in
spired of nothing short of spite
against the owner of the animal, and
the low cunning employed in its car
rying out thoroughly matches the
Inspiration.

As stated by one of the leaders in the movement to entertain the President elect:
 Notwithstanding all that has been said of the religion of Judge Taft, he will not do anything on a Sunday that could be commented on in the least and therefore 1t Is out or the order to pre- pare for anything on that day. However, 1t is absolutely certain. say leading men here, that if the Presl- dent-eleet is not entertained this time he will give Birmingham the chance l a little later.
