Land of Salmon, WillardJ.Welch Writes Interest- ingly'of the Home of Fish and Fisheries. Willard J. Welch has written from Portland, one of Ms very interesting letters to an Iowa City friend, who kindly permits the PRESS to present it, ia turn, to our readers.

Feeling assured that Mr. Welch's epistle will be given a. reading by all, we pressat it herewith: Portland, Sunday, Aug. ir. DEAR arrived here en Wednesday evening and wi'l leave Moa- day for Tacoraa which place we should reach abont 4:00 p.

m. We shall be in or aroaad Tacoma a week at least. Friday we took the steamer T. J. Potter, going to Astoria and back, 100 miles or more each way.

Portland is on the Willaraeta twelve miles from the Columbia. Astoria is at the mouth of tbe Columbia, aad is, as you know, for its salrsou. The run has been phenomena! this year. They 5 have already canned aad put away about $3,000,000 worth of this line fish. It is most interesting to see them canned.

The fish mostly are beauties, weighing from 50 to So pounds. The work is done neatly aad quickly by Caiaamea, under a foreman who is usually an Acsericari- It is performed systematically, each set I 01 men dei-ig oce Using. First, the head is cat off with a cleaver; then fish is cut in cross sections by a machine, the pieces assorted aad packed by hand ia the cans. Another machine rounds the opea end, and boys put oa the tin covers, whea they are placed oa their sides in a pe- caliar chain arrangement with a trough aaderaeath. Rolling through this they are quickly soldered.

Taeace, ia square trays they are lowered iato the boiliag water and the salmca is quickly cooked in the cans. At another place there are cold storage rooms where ao canning is doae. The fish are beheaded, cut lengthwise in two. the backbone removed, and thea ia boxes are frozia ia cold storage. To walk by a door aad be told it was always 10 degrees below zero withia made us wonder at maa's ingenuity.

These fish are caught ia nets, ia fish wheels aad various ways. The river is very wide and on the saiid bars oae could see teams of horses pulling in tbe nets. It looked strange at first to see horses in the water away out ia midstream. It seems they tow them out there oa barges. Up the river fish wheels turned by the current, automatically catch the fish aad dump them iato a box or oa a small barge, as wanted.

They are aa ingenins arraagemeat. We met here Mr. Ellis Hughes and his good wife, who have beea exceedingly kind to ns aad made oar visit very enjoyable. They took us up the Columbia to The Dalles yesterday. We left at 7:00 a.

ia. and got back at 10:30 p. making s. waole day of it. The day was one of the most enjoyable we ever spent, thanks to our good frieads.

The boat was large comfortable aad fast. The river is beautiful--a clear, crystal stream of pture mountain water, so wide and large that as yon make the bends and find yourself surrouaded apparently by mountains that rise on aa average of 2,500 feet, you seein to be oa an emerald lake of surpasstag beautv. Waterfalls drop from these mountain sides here and there, curious formations of aatare present themselves on every side, aad all aroaad yon is an ever- chaagiag panorama of absorbing interest and beanty. All of a sudden the river narrows aad you almost rush into the cascades, roaring torrent of mad waters that come tumbling down, around and through some picturesque islands, aad find your boat steering to the right and entering the locks These locks were built by the government and resembles those at Sault St. Marie, Mich.

Thence we proceed on up to the Dalles. One who comes to the coast and does not. take in this Columbia River ride misses oae of the most delightful trips and some of the finest scenery in the West. On a clear day Mt. Hood, Mt.

Adams aad other snow clad mountains rear their lofty peaks aad as the boat proceeds preseats to you different aspects. The graadner of all this is uplifting while over your seases steals a quiet, restful feeling caused by the beanty of your surroundings, the attractiveness of it aad the comfort in which it is doae Portland has some 100,000 people aad is cenaia to become a very large city from the nature of its situation and sarroaa dings. We like it aad ia fact. so far, all this rortbern countiy, we i think better than California. Germans Greet Us, i I Editors of BEawkeye State to Asi semblein the Athens.

i The German editors of Iowa will hold their first annual convention ia Iowa City September 20, 21 aad 22. This decision was reached yesterday, after considerable deliberatioa aad argn- nseat among the fifty editors of the two Gennaa papers ia the Hiwkeye state.

Mr. Mabraun pointed out, however the great interest attaching to the University, aad assured the editors that the authorities of taat institution would be pleased to throw opea wide the doors of the wonderful museums aad all the other interesting buildings of S.

U. I. He told them, too, of the enort the Commercial club, the PRESS, aad the citizens of Iowa City, as a whole, would make the entertainment of the visitors, and his argnmeats were finally victorious The editors will devote Friday aad Saturday to the effectiag of a permanent organization, aad themes of general importance will be discussed, whether or no formal papers are read. Officers for the first year's life of the association will be elected also. Sunday will be given up particularly to sight-seeing, p'easure-seeking and church-going.
