Giving as his reason the friction listing between himself and members of the State Fish and Game Commis sion. H. I. Kelly, since July 25. 1915. the master fish warden of the state, yesterday tendered his resignation. It was accepted immediately by tne R E. Clanton, superintendent or hatcheries, will assume the duties of the office of master fish warden im mediately, having been elected to that position-at the special meeting of the Commission yesterday. The office of superintendent of hatcheries will therefore be automatically eliminated and the salary of the officer formerly holding that position. $2500 a year, will be saved. Mr. Clanton will draw salary as fish warden. , Although there has been some fric tion existing between Mr. Kelly and members of the Commission, it is known that Mr. Kelly has been in rather poor health recently. This may have had something to do with his resignation. . The Commission had contemplated for some time a reconstruction In the departments of fish and game and the resignation of Mr. Kelly fits in with the general scheme outlined. The combining of these offices will also put the police power, formerly a function of the fish department, as well as of the game department, en tirely in the hands of the state game warden. Unnecessary duplication of police officers will therefore be ob viated, the work of patroling in the interest of game and fish protection being simultaneous. H. L. Kelly was appointed Master Fish "Warden by the State Fish and Game Commission June 26, 1915, and assumed the duties of the office July 1. ' He has had wide experience in hatchery work, being employed by the Government for years and having been interested in the same line of work in South America for 18 months. From South America Mr. Kelly returned to Oregon City, his home, and was award ed the office of Master Fish Warden. The office of Superintendent of Hatcheries was created at the session of the last Legislature, and Mr. Clan ton was given that position, the appli cation of Mr. Kelly for the office of Master Fish Warden being given fa vorable action by the Commission. Mr. Kelly has not announced what his future plans are to be. GEORGE W.
