What is considered by State Game Warden Finley to be the most im portant move ever made for the pro tection of game in Oregon will be made by the La Grande'lodge of Elks tomorrow evening, according to ad vices received here today. It will be the adoption of a resolution calling upon the other Elks' lodges of the state to contribute toward a fund to be used in assisting the state game department in securing convictions against those who kill elk in this state, contrary to law. There are 14 lodges in the state and included in the resolution will be a motion that the La Grande lodge appropriate its J600 or $700 neces sary to raise a fund of $5000 or $6, 000. It was the original intention of the La Grande Elks to have this fund used by offering rewards of J500 each for information leading to the arrest and conviction of anyone killing an elk in this state. At the suggestion of State Game 'Warden Finley, however, the fund, if raised, will probably be made permanent and only the inter est used In the rewards. Though this will not give' a very large sum at first Mr. Finley has offered to supplement It from the state game fund so that a reward of $250 could be offered at Two Drunks In Court. G. E. Taylor and Pat Slurry made up the police court docket this mor ning. Each pleaded guilty to the charge of being drunk and each was given a three days' sojourn in lull.

As he was munching the sandwich the train whistled and tho Btranger ran to grab his car. He was a little lute but mai.aged to grasp a handle. He lost his grasp and managed to grip the 9teps on the car. He clung to the step until he was dragged 200 yards when the emer gency was pulled and the train stop- pod. T stranger was badly bruised and lacerated but he still retained his grip on the sandwich and cooly took another bite. first and later funds sufficient for the full $500 reward for each case will be available. According to the state game war den the chief importance of this move lies not in the fact that a large reward is to be offered but in that several thousand prominent citizens throughout the state are directly contributing to a fund for the protec tion of elk and will therefore 'have a personal interest in the several small bands yet remaining in different parts of Oregon. Mr. Finley says this cooperation will result in the arousing of a public sentiment which will make possible full and complete protection of this, the noblest of all game-animals. He also believes the good effects will not be confined to elk alone but will he extended to game protection in general. This is the second important move made by the La Grande lodge along the same line and both are directly due to the importation of the famous "Oregon Herd" of elk from Jackson Hole, Wyoming, to Wallowa county, Oregon. The first was the sending out of personal letters to each of the lodge's 500 members in Union and Wallowa counties, calling upon them to cooperate to the fullest extent with with the state game warden and his deputies in their efforts to prevent the annihilation of Oregon's game. It is believed by those most inter ested In the matter that the bringing of this herd of elk to Oregon by the joint efforts of the state game de partment and the Elks lodges has re sulted In the awakening of a greater sentiment in favor of game protec tion throughout Oregon than has heretofore existed. 0eratiiHis Begin On Alta Street.

The sce nic attractiveness of the Beaver state from the sounding Pacific to the ma gle caves of southern Oregon and the sun-lit wheat fields of Umatilla coun ty were skillfully depicted by Judge Lowell, who asserted that nowhere, In the United States or abroad, can such wonder of scenery be found as characterize any locality of Oregon. "The zone of power; the fairest gem set in the diadem of the Pacific a strange, mystic, beautiful mixing of the gross and fine; the cultivated and the wild," were some of the de scriptive phrases used by Judge Low ell.
