ARREST FOR "VIOLATION -Nimrods , Beat Bashes and ,Tramji Throogli Tall Uncut But Do Not Get Many Bij-di---Law'i Restrictions In terfere With Good Shots. 4 Renorts generally are to the effect that pheasants are not so numerous as hoped for, 'There were many hunters in the fields yesterday, but few bagged the limit, five. .: ' ' , ' ' C ; '. But one arrest was made for violation of the. law. Dep uty C. C. Bryant brought in 'John Doe" on a charge of hav? ing female pheasants in his pos session. He pleaded guilty and Justice ' Lane assessed him $25 l n W asvaet -The deputies are reported as having been rather alert. They inspected . a number of vehicles and hunting bags, and in an in stance created some bad feeling. .One I of . them stopped County Surveyor F; M. Wilkes who, was driving along the road in pur- ...gun, but his wagon was searched. Mr, Wilkes thinks this nothing Jess than tyranny and he voices his -protest in no mistakable language. It is reported that there was considerable violation of that section of the law declaring against shooting from the road. Firing from vehicles in the road is strictly forbidden but some of this was done. M.T.Burnett got the, limit jfcowjiuajf. xie is incimea to ieei that there are no more birds than there were last year. He hunted. over the burned area south of Corvallis and ran into a deputy every ten feet. Mr. Burnett thinks that big fire . des troyed many young birds as well as old ones. Because of inabil ity to tell whether the bird was a male or female he missed many good shots. E. E. Wilson and M. H. Bauer, who went to the Jess Foster place and hunted, failed to bag as many as ' the law permits. Mr. Wilson says the Foster place has ever been counted the best hunting place in this section; but yesterday the pheasants were not in evidence.
