It is the trade, of the slaughterhouse, and breeds greed, avarice, malice, laziness and quarrelsomeness. The selfishness and hoggishuess engendered by the oc cupation has become a byword. Although the merciless practices of the vocation inev itably exhausts nature and sooner or later the unreason ing and unreasonable host are left without an occupation, cvovy effort to better conditions is savagely resisted. The Xew Eoundland fisheries have been a subject of international dispute for centuries. Every effort at ad justment and compromise only furnishes fresh subjects for quarrels.' Salmon in Atlantic coast streams were years ago ex terminated through the fatuous folly of the fishermen, who fought every means designed to prevent extermina tion. Quarrels of the Columbia river fishermen have taken up a large pari of the time of every Oregon and Washing ton legislative session for a score and more of years. Ev ery measure designed to protect the fish has been bitterly fought by conflicting interests. Efforts to join with Wash ing! on iii enforcing a similar code of protective laws in each state have been as stoutly resisted. The disputes have disgusted the people of both states. Lawlessness of the fishermen has become proverbial. They break, and constantly break, the letter and spirit of laws designed only to perpetuate their own industry.- Only complete' extermination of fish will end their law break ing, silence their noisy clamor, and end their rapacity. K'ogue river fishing has been a never-ending source of turmoil. The upper river fishermen are greedy law break ers. The lower river has ever, boon in the 'grip of a million-dollar monopoly thai has been aliv unto itself. Neither faction would listen 'to rcasori, and between the two, fish of all kinds were being rapidly exterminated. An disgust, the people of Oregon voted both o.ut of business. Of course both factions are clamoring for the legisla ture to nullify the people's law. But will the legislature dare to under the expressed wish of the people? We shall see. SOUND ADVICE ON 10 of the large insurance concerns has written re garding .Medford as follews: "AVe have received a report on general conditions, fire department, water supply, etc., at Medford, all gen erally favorable, especially the report on water system. "The tire department, however, is inadequate tor a town the size and importance of iWedford. The building law is poor and there is too much refuse in the rear of store buildings. AVe suggest the passage of a better build ing law and a law requiring premises to be kept clear of rubbish. "A strong fire department, together with a good build ing law, anugood conditions, always is recognized by in surance companies in making rates and in the long run the town will get back in the way of lessened cost for in surance, all that is expended for protection." Ih'W are added reasons for building inspection, clean liness and a better fire department that appeal to the pock et hook and hence appeal to all. UNLAWFUL S I01ZUR10 at Portland of millinery containing plumage of Chinese pheasants has called attention to the vio lation of the law bv nianv women of Medford who adorn their headgear with the features of this unlawfully slaugh tered game bird. The law not only forbids killing of pheasants in .lack son county, bul also the wearing of the plumage of a bird, a fact unknown to most women wearing them, who arc unwittingly rendering themselves liable to fine or impris onment. Milliners who sell and carrv pheasant plunuigt in stock are also breaking the law. which reads as follows " I'Yoin and after the (late when this act hccoincs a law. any person or persons who shall, have in his or their pos session the feathers, carcass or ji'nv portion of anv dm ring-necked or Chinese (Torquat,us) pheasant at tiny timt when it is unlawful to hunt or kill thnsame, or who shall at am time mutilate any carcass or any such bird for tin purpose of disguising the sex thereof shall be deemed guilty of a violation of the provisions of this act, and tin possession of said feathers, carcass or any portion of tin dead bird shall be deemed and held prima facie evidenci of guilt." The penalty for uolation of this law is: "a fim of not less than $'2) or more ihan l"0," etc. RECIPROCITY CAMPAIGN SENATE LIBERAL TO " Of TAFT UNDERWAY FOUR DISTRICT FAIRS WASlUMiltiN, I).
