COLUMBIA RIVER HAS BIG
 SALMON RUN THIS YEAR

Tons of silvery salmon deluged the floors of Astoria canneri $ the last week of fishing on the Columbia River. The run is said to be the greatest in many years. Gillnetters who for sea- son after season, have contentel themselves with 100 and 200 pounds of fish for a nights work, brought in hauls that at some canneries averaged a ton.
 Seiners on the Lower Colunl- bia river seining grounds work. ed feverishly as each haul of tho big seines scooped up many to1ls of salmon.
 Old timers on the river declar- ed the run the biggest since 1903, when the canners gave Or threw away fish they could not use.
 Prices paid were 2 and 3 cents per pound, the lowest paid foc raw fish in many seasons.
 Alaskans account for the big run on the Columbia as due to the strike period, during which time very little salmon was talk en but heavy run reported on the trolling banks in Southeast Alaska. At present and since the fishermen went back to work, there has been very little fish caught. At present most of the fishermen are getting ready for the late fall runs.
 Rumors current are to the ef.' feet that the buyers will not be in the market for fresh fish this fall.

Member of Council Declares
Future of Countries Rests
In Cooperation With U. S.

GENEVA. June 8 US0.-The
time is soon coming when the
Latin-American countries will
have to withdraw from the League
Of Nations.
For many Of us. conditions
at Geneva already have hecome
intOlerable."
Future Lies With U. S.
The man who gave this state.
ment to Universal Service is a
member of the League Council
For obvious reasons he did not
wish his name disclosed After
long study of Latin-Amelican re-
lations with the League ne has
reached this conclusion:
"The future of Latin. America
lies not with Europe but in
joint cooperation with the
United States. The moment
that Pan-Americanism is eStab.
lished as a vital force, based
ON mutual respect and conf
dence, that moment, l believe

Central America leave Geneva.

Geneva for 10 years. Behind
the pretty promises made us
we have met only rebuff after

"The League is becoming
merely a European institution.
1t is not greatly interested in
our specific problems. 1t seems
chiefly interested in invading,

Of smaller nations whenever the
larger powers find it to their
advantage to do so.

What are you saying to my

should she pay you $500, you
that were her fathers friend,
you that belong to the same
lodge and wanted to help his
daughter get out of the misery
she is in. What do you want
With three hundred or with

that she has worked hard to

The Federal narcotic agent
jumped to his feet. "Come

Don't get excited about all
this. Well talk it over together,
you and l."
Mother Turns Him Out
'No, we won't talk it over to-
gether," said my mother, "and
you won't talk it over with my
poor little girl, either. You
walk out of this house and you
stay out"
And walk out he did, and stay
out he did, but he found me at
other places, and I paid him his
blood money just the same, and
then I went back to the doctor
who had been selling me a
dollar tube of dope for $3.50. If
you want to know the name of
that doctor and his address,
you can find it in the report of
the grand jury that investigated
him and his dope-selling activi-
ties about two years ago in Los
Angeles. You can find the
name of the Federal agent
there. too. No, the agent was
not discharged from the Govern
ment service, not at all. I
don't say that he had some
thing on the high officials above
him that made them protect
him.
I do not say that the Federal
narcotic commissioner in Wash
ington at that tirle was little
preoccupied with political af-
fairs, perhaps. but somehow or
other, this agent is still in the
Government service. He has
been transferred to Texas. 1
presume he has relatives there.
The doctor, no, 1 have never
heard that the California Medi-
cal Association took the doc
tors license to practice away;
though, Of course, they may
have done so since then with
out my knowledge.
He was a very well.knoWn
doctor with very handsome Of
fices and a large clientele of
rich women as his patients.

suppose dope is merely a side
line. I've often wondered how
many of his patients he soothes
