oOI pounds or DlueDack salmon Tuesday. The fish average about six pounds apiece. Out of approx imately 60 bluebacks received at the cannery that day, II were marked fish. Thus one blueback out of every 5.5 of this species received at the cannery was a mark ed one, artifcally propagated, marked and released from the Enterprise hatchery in 1924.
 The most unusual report of marked salmd ny returned comes from a cannery above Astoria where, of 26 bluebacks received yesterday, IA were marked from the Enterprise hatchery.
 At another plant count of the bluebacks received Wednesday showed that one-third were marked fish.
 At still another cannery out of a delivery of nine bluebacks this i've were marked.
 Fish Expert Here
 Harlan B. Holmes, U. s. bureau of fisheries expert attached to the Oregon fisheries for scientific study of the salmon through marking and microscopic examination of the scales, was in Astoria this week collecting the scars and scales from marked salmon and distribut- ing the rewards offered by the state fish commission.
 Henry Saski, fish butcher at the Sanborn Cutting company cannery alone received S19 in rewards for the delivery of the marks from 19 bluebacks
 Return Per Centage Large
 An extraordinary feature of the present experiment is the large proportion of marked fish now be- ing received. Of the 3,OOO,OOO sock eyes released at Enterprise in 1924 the marked fish numbered 100000. Thus one fish out of every 30 was marked. The per centage of marked fish among those returning to the river, however, is much greater, it having been shown that at one cannery one out of every 5.5 blue backs received were marked.
 E. I. Ballagh, master fish warden, declared today that he had never heard of such a large return of marked salmon in a single experi-

MUSCLE SHOALS BIDS

Although a majority of the special committee
Shoals recommended acceptance of the proposal OF
the Alabama Power Company and associated south
ern corporations, final disposition of that great
government project at this session is doubtful
Senator Norris of Nebraska who favors gov
eminent operation of Muscle Shoals, has consist
emily opposed all bills providing for a lease of the
property to private interests, and has so far been
able, with the aid of other senator's, to block all
legislation with that end in view.
There is little likelihood that his own BILL
which is government operation measure, will ever
be adopted by both houses of Congress- yet so long
as his group opposes all other propositions it will
be extremely difficult to dispose of this long
standing and vexing question.
No committee of Congress has ever been able
to reach unanimous agreement regarding Muscle
Shoals, the recent joint committee having split,
to 2, the pending measure.
Actual production of power at Muscle Shoals
was begun last fall and the machinery now in opcr-
alton is delivering close to 100000 horsepower
This is being distributed by the Alabama Power
Company under temporary arrangement with the
War Department, and the company has already
paid for its approximately 100000 In the
event that no action is taken by Congress, this ar
rangement viii no doubt be continued indefinitely
The failure of Congress to reach conclusion
regarding Muscle Shoals strkingly illustrates the
folly of mixing politics with business.

NEWSPAPER DEATHS
pensacola Journal)

The requiem has been sung over two more
a few days ago at Key West, and old Doc
Finance is struggling laboriousy to keep another
from "going West" The Key West publications,
The Morning Call and Evening Telegram, appar-
emily were established without due consideration
of the possibilities of the field else with the
idea of taking all business away from the publica-
ton already existing and putting the latter out of
business In the other case, at Miami, the paper
was started by the of multi millionaire, who
firing of pouring money into what grew to have
the appearance of bottomless pit, at last declined
to put up any more funds to take care of deficits
arising from the lack of support by the people of
that city. Now the young publisher is trying TO
the face of slim business.
Establishment of the Miami paper made the
the fourth daily in that city, which created an inn
possible situation from business standpoint. Only
the abnormal conditions that have prevailed in
the Magic City" during the last year or
made it possible for so many papers to survive
even for a short period. More than two news
papers in a city of that size rarely make money
enough to justify the owners in putting out pub
LEGATION worthy of the name of newspaper. Cities
Of 10000 to $4,000 population sometimes support
two dailes on basis that make reasonable profit
for both. Only the most exceptional cases vary
from this rule.
The publication of newspapers apparently
looks to the average layman to be an easy job and
one that yields handsome returns on a small in
vestment. At least this may be the conclusion
reached from the large number of persons who
want to start newspapers 1t is fortunate for those
who never go beyond the desire" stage with their
aspirations.
Publishing newspapers is not the work of
novice nor business to be rushed into without
careful investigation beforehand. Coleman Dun
can, former publisher of the defunct papers at
Key West, is quoted as saying that "after a thor
ough analysis and careful survey he has come
to the conclusion that there is room for but one
paper in that city at the present time, and con
sequently suspended publication of his papers.
Equipment necessary to start daily paper costs
thousands of dollars, large percentage of which
is lost when the publication ceases.

EDUCATION THAT DOES NOT EDUCATE

1t is one of the ironies of the world that many
children of wealthy people. who obtain the very
best advantages that money can buy, are not
educated when they get through with this training.
Th,y may have crammed their heads with facts,
bit they have not learned how to do original think
ing. nor have they acquired habits of patient in
dustry
And meanwhile many children of pennileSs
people have bright minds that could do big work
If they could have training. What can be done to
readjust this discrepancy?
Scholarships for worthy and promising boys
and girls in colleges, academies. and high schools
do grea. deal to offset the misfits of education
and open up doors of opportunity to those who
are knocking for entrance.

DANIEL BOONE HOTEL is
MECCA FOR NEWLYWEDS
Several Couples From Various Sec
tion Here During Past Week

The Honeymoon Hotel is the
name given the Daniel Boone hostelry
in an article by l.. J. Hampton, staff
correspondent of the Winston-Salem
Journal in last Sundays edition. 1t
seems that the reporter has well NAM
ed the place for during the past week
five recently welded couples register
ed there for brief sojourns.
Interesting is the fact that among
the honeymooners was Sheriff c. w.
Gibbs and wife of Pamlico county,
their first trip to the mountains. Mr.
Gibbs is the youngest sheriff in North
Carolina, having been elected to that
office when but % years of age He
is 26 now and thinks he can be sher-
iff of his home county as long as he
wishes.
Mr. and Mrs G. H. Wilson, of Ru-
raj Hall, were shoppers at the Dan
iel Boone, having been married re-
Gently at their Forsyth county home.
Also from over at EliZabethton came
another bride and groom, Mr.. and
wi D "a. ~. IlpIoll, WIN diC ACol
Boone boosters, and will return later
for longer stay.
Mr.. and Mrs. G. F. Love, of Ram
seur, Randolph county, were married
last week and also came to Boone
to viow the scenery and catch some
fresh mountain air. They were very
enthusiastic over the northwestern
country and are determined to visit
Boone again before the summer is
over.
Mr.. and Mrs. l.. P. Moore dropped
in from South Carolina. 1t was easy
to belseen that they had recently ex-
perienced the tying of conjugal
knot for the decorations on their car
were appropos. An old shoe was
tied underneath the machine and a
COW chain affixed.
Manager Vaughn is conducting a
first class hotel and these honey
moon couples were quick to realize
the fact. They are loud in their
praise of Boone's fine new hotel and
the excellent attention they received
and will doubtless enjoy many more
trips to this scenic part of north
western Carolina mountains.
