Buffalo lacks accommodation for guests
visiting the Pan-American Kxposition.
The statement is utterly without founda

dations for one hundred thousand guests,
in the most desirable homes and loca

room offered to guests lias been in

Will Dutcher discovered a lot of young
bass washed ashore in the eddy at the
Al'ona dock Tuesday morning. He
called the attention of E. C. Greenman,
field superintendent of the Oregan fish
comiiiission to the fact, and a Careful ex
amination revealed the fact that the
young bass had -been caught in the
meshes of a gill net. It ia presumed
that some one had been fishing with a
gill net up the Willamette, and threw
the young bass back into the water.
Dea l bass do not sink in the water like
salmon, but float along the surface, and
are often carriod ashore by the eddies.
The new fish laws provide a heavy pen
alty for. catching blues bass, and the
fisherman may have cast them away to
avoid detection. Five years imprison
ment is the punishment promised for
person found catching black bass.
There is another short chapter in the
Mcllargue case this week. Last spring
Mr. Mcllargue made application in
Clackamas county for a teachers' certifi
cate, and passed his examination there.
The certificate was granted. The hol
der presented this to Superintundent
Ball for indorsement, under that sec
tion of law which provides that a super
intendent "may" indorse tin certificate
granted in another county, thus dis
pensing with the formality of examina
tion, and tiling certificates of character.
Mr. McIIaiaue contended that''may" is
to be construed "must" where it appear
in 'the statute. Superintendent Ball
thought that "may" means "may," and
gives him discretionary power. The
iispnte was submitted to Attorney-Gun
end Blackburn for interpretation. That
officer holds with Superintendent B ill,
Mr. Mcllargue's certificate will not be
endorsed in this county. Hillsboro In
dependent. The matter of contention
appears to ba over the moral character
of Mcllargue.
