All of the original conten tions demanded were secured. The bill on final passage differs altogether from that first submitted. The closed season at the mouth of the river lor salmon fishing has been extended from of days to six and a half months, and on Ihe upper river to eight months. Drag seines are forbidden, and only nets oi eight-inch minimum mesh can be used. Sale of salmon during closed period is forbidden. (latching of steelhead and rroul, except with hook and line, is forbidden on the Rogue and its tributaries, and sale, or .sinpment lor tne purpose 01 saie, is aiso lorouuien. The commercial fishing limit is removed from the Jack son county line, three miles down stream to the steel bridge at Grants Pass, thus eliminating the Anient dam. Most of the catch of previous years at (I rants Pass has been takeu in the strip of water now closed and taken with drag seines, now lorbidden. A hard fight was made by Medford representatives at the legislature against the Pierce bill, but it was passed because a majority of the members of the legislature were convinced (hat the bill remedied an injustice done to a large industry and many dependents and at the same time PRICES OR LIVESTOCK HUNf MMIGFS OTflTC PTJITIITCC" a''''ol'(' ',(' ('onian(l('(l protection for game fish by sports The fact that 200 families in a sparsely settled, inac Closiiin Hours of Session Witnesses Enactment of Many New Laws Prosecuting Attorney for Each County Publish Delinquent Taxes SALEM, Or., Fob. 20.

WHY NOT CALL IT S. P. & M.? TJ110 Hill lines, comprising the Nor Trunk, the Pacific Ac Eastern a th Bank, the Oregon ind the Oregon Elec tric and United Railroads are about to be consolidated in one great company. The iMail Tribune respectfully offers the suggestion that this great railroad, extending from Spokane to Port land and through the WVillamette valley as well as cen tral Oregon, to iMedford, be named the Spokane, Portland and Aledford, for short, the S. P. and Al., or better yet, the Medford. Such a name is not only euphonious and appropriate, but describes in three words the geographical location of the railroad.
