Into the Valley of Death.
MRS. zoG hARKER vIcKERMAN.

Early Tuesday morning, Nov. %,
death came TO Mrs. Zoe Harker Wick
erman as she lay contending with the
destroyer at the home of her father,
Mr.. James Harker, in this city.
Deceased was 81 years of age and
had been a resident of Mineral Point
from early girlhood. On the 25th of
September, 1907, she was united in
marriage to w. Vickerman, Jr. About
year thereafter a trip was taken to
the far northwest for the benefit of
her health, but to no avail, Tubercu-
losis of the lungs had set in and resisted
every effort to check it.
The untimely demise of this estimable
woman is cause for profound sorrow
among young and old throughout this
community, to whom she had endeared
herself by her sweet disposition and
ever kindly manners. To the bereaved
family there is extended the heartfelt
of one and all.
Funeral Thursday afternoon, Nov. %.

FRANCE FEARS MAY DAY.

PARIS, April 30.-France is look
ing forward with undisguised appre-
hension to the May Day demonstra-
tions tomorrow. Not in years has
such a general condition of unrest
prevailed among the working classes
in all parts OF the republic. The
strikes of late have been both numer.
GUS and disastrous, notably those Of
the postal employees and telegraph
operators in the government service
and the button workers at Meru,
where the strike was accompanied bv
bloodshed
That serious labor disturbances
will be inaugurated tomorrow appears
certain in view Of the action of the
General Federation of Labor and the
United Unions of Paris in calling
upon the unions throughout the coun'
try to Join in a general demonstratiy'
strike The authorities in Paris and
other industrial centers Of France
acting on general orders from th'
central government, are taking every
precaution to suppress the threatened
riotous outbreaks.

HERE'S TO THEML


There are an even 100 days ahead
Of the Columbia River fishermen, in
the 1909 season, for the taking Of the
beautiful and eompensating game OF
the sea and stream, and they enter
upon their work with the proioundest
good will of the laudsmen everywhere
for an enormous catch and season
free from ill.luck and death,
They are entitled to every atom Of
advantage that may come to them,
not alone on account Of the skill, the
strife. the risks, involved in their
hardy calling and its successful pro-
secution, but for the steady and hon
est faith they have kept with the tw .
States. when the compact was torn
to tatters BY neighboring fishermen
who were not men enough to stand
by the big industry upon square
incentive Of its advantage and up
building BY conforming to that agree
ment tacitly, but who took advantage
Of the shallowest Of pretexts %
swarm upon the two hatchery streams
and slaughter deliberately, whe: e
every instinct Of preservation and
promise forbade the raid.
This square deal is never likely 20
be forgotten. and IT will serve its best
ends in days to come when the inter
ests Of the lower river shall com'
again before the electorate of the
State. 1t pays to be manly and de-
cent. and we hope the men OF this
region will begin to reap the harvest
of dues with their boats and nets and
gear from high noon this day, AM
that it will continue to the last hour
of the season, and then some. Here's

LOCAL LUMBER SITUATION.


Ii Is held, by some of the moe
sanguine people Of this section that
the lumber situation here is not 70 be
mute so disadvantaged by the re-
moval Of the tariff from lumber, As
might have been supposed; and bv
wav Of substantiating this cheerful
aspect, they claim that the doubling
Of the capacity Of the Hammond
Lumber company's splendid plant at
Tongue Point in the face Of the
threatened tariff action is an 'indica'
ton Of an assured and contracted
business there, that in part obviates
any dubious promise; again it is held
bv those acquainted with the immedi-
ate conditions, that at least three OF
the biggest logging concerns in tins
neiphborhood are fortified with
string Of contracts that win keep their
camps and affiliated mills going,
straight through: and the Clatsop
Milling Company IS held TO be charg'
ed with engagements that will keep
its people on the jump all through
the long summer; and last, but not
least, there is a very general impress
sion that the duty on lumber will not
be removed. anyway.
This is the tone Of things in th=
local lumber world and ii might b.
much more lugubrious. Then there
are certain foregone improvements

A REGATTA HUNcH.

If we are not altogether mistaken
the Astoria Regatta conditions are ii
such shape as to require over-hauling
from the very base. The old and
capable committee has either form
ally, or tacitly, resigned and a new
staff must be selected before any
thing Of importance can be done fo'
the 1909 season. Therefore, it is in
order to begin casting about for
chairman and committee that shall be
willing and competent for the big
annual task. There is not much time
TO lose, either, since the season is on
/ for engaging the people and features
that are essential to a fine program;
and it must be fine program, for the
