THE SUNDAY - OREGONIAX, t PORTLAND, JANUARY lor 1905.
Official Batting and Fielding Averages and Pitching
Records of Pacific Coast League, Season of 1904
tyWP official averages of players in tne
1 FaclSc Coast League have been 1s-
fcy Secretary James H. Anderson
kni jfeow some splendid figures opposite
the Buoes of well-known batsmen,
rwlxfenasd fielders.
Htwt4n, Winning Pitcher.
"Dwc?' Newton, of the Angel city's ag-
l -Mkm, out of 56 games, pitched 29 to
gooi, TPhlch gives him a percentage
MS. Keefe (Tacoma), Buchanan (Oak-
itLSti) Ana "Charlie" Hall, the "Slwash"
;2tin-tfcr, follow close onto Newton's
OfU with good averages. The best av-
era of a "Webfoot" twlrler is that of
"iOul" Roach. .538.
T)Bny" Shay, Portland's lively short-
Itqp, comes in for a ribbon with a fielding
fcvrraffo of .57. For sharp playing, how
ever, Toman, of the "Angels," shows
wJJ with a fine put-out which resulted
lin Mtiring 303 men. "Russ" Hall, of the
"8fwhes," and "Commuter" Franck
are shown to have done some good field
ing. "Jule" Strelb, of the "Commuters,"
stands in front of the first basemen with
a percentage of .9SL Nordyke, of Tacoma,
is close second. Strleb's topping over of
Nordyke will undoubtedly prove a sur
prise to the fans. "Bill" Massey, Frisco,
for a short season, shows up well, with a
percentage of .978.
Fielding records do not look well Tor
Portland. Becks comes up fairly well
but Castro played as bad second as he did
shortstop. Miller leads and Casey and
"Kid" Mohler follow.
The report is only such dope as fans
will eat and goes on to give all the av
erages of Individual players of the Pacific
Coast League, regardless of the length of
time they played. Third basemen and
fielders follow in the tabulated state
ments. The standing of the teams, as
well as several other accounts of interest
to "sphere" enthusiasts, concludes the re
port, which follows:

PROPOSED FEDERAL GAME LAW
Bill Introduced in Congress for Pro
tection of Feathered Game.
Following Is the text of House BUI No.
15.S0L introduced Jn Congress on Monday
of last week by Hon. George Shlras.
Third, of Pennsylvania, referred to in an
article on the Federal game laws on
page 23 of this edition. The bill has been
referred to the committee on agriculture,
of which Hon. James W. Wadsworth, ot
New York, is chairman:
Whereas. Exyerlener ha shown that laws
paired by the states and territories of the
VnlteJ States to protect game birds within
their re?ectlre limits have been Insufficient
to protect tho;e kinds and classes of said birds
which are mlcratonr In their habits, and which
nest and hatch their young' In states other
than those In which they pass the usual turn
ing scaran, and In some cases breed beyond
the boundaries of the United States; and.
Whereas. Such local laws are also Inapplica
ble and Insufficient to protect such game
birds as, In their migrations, are found In
the public waters of the United States, out
side the limits and Jurisdiction of the several
states and territories: and.
Whereas. The absence of uniform and effect
ive laws and regulations in such cases has
resulted in the wholesale destruction and th
threatened extermination of many valuable
soecles of mid came birds, which cannot be
practically restored or restocked under state
laws applicable In the case of game birds bav-
iiur their permanent habitat within the re
spective states and territories: therefore, be It
Unacted by the Senate and House of Repre
sentatives of the United States of America. In
Concrem assembled:
Section 1. That all wild ceese. wild swans,
brant, wild ducks, snipe, plover, woodcock, rait
wild pigeons and all other migratory imo
birds which In their northern and southern
migrations pass through or do not remain p1
maurntly the entire year within th borders ot
any state or territory, hall herearter be deemed
to be' within the custody and protection ot Urn
uovernment of the United Staten. and shall
not be destroyed or taken contrary to regal
tlon hereinafter provided for.
Sec 2. That the Department of Agricul
ture is hereby authorized to adopt sultabl
regulations to give effect to the previous
section by prescribing and fixing closed sea
sons, having due regard to the zones ot tem
perature, breeding habits and times and Has
of migratory flight thereby enabling the d
partment to select and designate sultabl
districts for different portions of the coun
try within which said closed seasons It shall
not be lawful to shoot or by any device kill
or seize and capture migratory birds with
In the protection of this law, and by do-
daring penalties by fine or Imprisonment
or both, for violation of such regulations.
Sc 3. That the Department of Agrlcul
ture. after the preparation of said regu!s
tlons. shall cause the same to be made iub
He. and shall allow a period of three months.
In which said regulations may be examlne'd
and considered, before final adoption, per
mitting, when deemed proper, public hear
Ings thereon, and after final adoption ti
cause same to be engrossed and submit
ted to the President of the United States
for approval.
Provided, however, that nothing herein
contained shall be deemed to affect or in
terfere with the local laws of the states and
territories for the protection of game local
lzed within their borders, nor to prevent

TALK OF THE DOGS
Western Kennel League Meets
in Rival Camp,
HOW THE BREACH OCCURRED
Denial That an Effort Was Made
to Lure Local Club Back From
. Ranks of the American
Kennel League.
The ears of the dogs must have burned
in Portland all day yesterday, for the
Western Kennel League was holding an
Important meeting in the stronghold of
the Portland Kennel Club, which recently
left the Western Kennel League, going
over to the American Kennel Club, Its
great rival. Moreover, the magnates of
the Western Kennel League met In the
office of E. F. Willis, president of the
Portland Kennel Club.
Mr. Willis was present by virtue of its
being in his office, and William Goldman,
a director In the Portland Kennel Club,
was also there because he Is a vice
president of the Western Kennel League.
Otherwise the Portland Kennel Club was
not represented, and those there were the
following officers of the Western Kennel
League:
President Julius Redelshelmer and John
Rlpllnger, of Seattle, secretary; Norman
J. Stewart, of San Jose; J. Bennett of
Victoria. B. C. and A. B. Jackson, of
Spokane.
'No Talk of Coercion.
But the very occurrence of this meet
ing stirred up dog talk generally. It was
believed the meeting was held to coerce
the recalcitrant Portland club back to the
ranks of the Western Kennel League.
But If there was any such intention, it
was wonderfully well hidden. One thine
has come out however, which has not
been known before both sides of the
story of the trouble lately arisen.
Three weeks ago the board of directors
of the Portland Kennel Club, suddenly
withdrew their organization from the
Western Kennel League and took their
toys over In the back yard of the Ameri
can Kennel Club. Why this sudden move
was made has never been understood
even by the body of members in the cluv.
Even now no full explanation is forth
coming. This Is whnt the other side.
speaking through Mr. Redelshelmer.,
says:
The American Kennel Club wrote to
Secretary Norman J. Stewart, of the Pa
cific Kennel League, saying that In order
to establish harmony among dog fanciers
all over the country, it was willing to
give over dog affairs in this part of the
country to a Pacific Coast advisory board.
to consist of three members from Cali
fornia, two from Oregon and two from
Washington.
"Mr. Stewart informed the clubs In the
Pacific Kennel League of this concession.
and it looked as if at last there would
be one national oragnlzatlon.
"The Portland Kennel Club, acting pre
maturely on Mr. Stewart's letter, sud
denly wrote to the American Kennel Club.
asking for membership. But meanwhile
did not withdraw from the Pacific Kennel
League, treating it as a body defunct
"No sooner nad tne American .Kennel
Club accepted Portland as a member than
It wrote to Mr. Stewart again, and with
drew its former proposition.
It looks as If the American Kennel
Club were merely trying to break up the
Pacific Kennel League, and having se
cifrcd one prominent member was satisfied."
President Willis says this explanation
looks all right but there were under
ground movements. He believes there
was place-peeking on that advisory board
on the part of members of the Western
Kennel League who were willing to throw
over their own organization for a posi
tion on the board. He says in explana
tion of the recent move of the club that
the Portland Kennel Club did not wish
to remain In the league under those cir
cumstances and withdrew to the rival
organization.
It Is at least certain that the stand of
the Portland Kennel Club has not been
affected by the presence of the mag
nates from the Western Kennel League.
The Portland organization Is a unit and
has faith in its board of directors, and
will follow as a body as it leads. Indi
vidual members of the club seen last
night, however, said they were merely
following blindly, and had not received
an explanation of the change made three
weeks ago.

have done so for generations. Gold leaf
is halways put on the market in little
books made of Bibles.
"Why? I'll tell you why. Gold leaf
muat be packed between printed in
stead of plain pages, for the reason
that it would slip out of plain pages,
which are too smooth for it whereas
the indentations made by the types on
the printed pages are just sufficient to
hold the leaf In place firmly. That's
why printed pages are used.
"We choose among all printed pages
Bible ones, for the reason that the
Bible Is the best printed book a-going.
The type is more evenly set and the
printing Is finer than in any other
work, and we neid the best typeset
ting and printing in our business, you
know, for any roughness or unevenness
Is apt to tear the gold leaf.
"That's why all English gold leaf is
packed In Bibles. It's a necessary thing
to do. but all the same. I've often won
dered that the churches 'ave never got

for our hlrreverence."
MUST BEF0BM COMMITTEES.
Small Men Coming to the Top and
Big Men Left Out.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash
ington. Jan. 9. In the opinion of Repub
lican leaders in the House of Represent
atives the time has arrived when the
committees of that body should be thor
oughly overhauled and rearranged. For
ten successive years the Republicans
have controlled the House, and as a re
sult of the recent election will extend
their control two years longer. In" that
long period of time, through the retire
ment or death of various strong and In
fluential men. members of comparative
insignificance and little ability now find
themselves In line for important chair
manships. In case Speaker Cannon next
winter makes promotions purely on the
seniority plan. This has all come about
through the retention of Incompetent men
In Congress, and their fortunate appoint
ment to good committees in times past
The most striking instance of small
men working their way to the top Is In
the case of the Committee on Appropri
ations. When Representative Hemenway
goes to the Senate to succeed Vice President-elect
Fairbanks, there will be ten
Republicans remaining on that commit
tee, not one of them competent to be
come its chairman. In this particular
case the Speaker will be compelled to
reorganize the committee, and appoint an
outsider as its chairman. And If he takes
this step, he will probably take the pre
caution to appoint a few substantial
members who will be in line In case an
other vacancy occurs.
Another striking Instance Is the com
mittee on Rivers and Harbors. If from
any cause. Mr. Burton Is relieved of
that chairmanship not one of the ten re
maining Republican members is qualified
to succeed him. This committee Is also
in sore need of reorganization.
There are plenty of good men In the
House to fill the important places; men
who are now without Important chair
manships. For Instance. Dalzell of Penn
sylvania has no chairmanship; Tawney
of Minnesota, the party whip, and a most
competent and Influential member, 13
chairman of the committee on Industrial
arts and expositions, which Is now prac
tically out of work, in view of the at
titude taken by Congress In opposition
to further exposition appropriations.
These two men In particular are deserv
ing of recognition with substantial
chairmanships, and it would not be at
all surprising if they should receive
something at the hands of the Speaker.
The House committees are loaded down
with dead wood as they have not been
in many years. There are Inconsequen
tial members on every committee; men
who have a vote, but who have no In
fluence. There Is a desire on the part
of the real leaders to place these men
on committees where they can do no
harm, and to make up the real active
committees of members who are com
petent and willing to work. In view of
thet great Republican majority in the
next House. Speaker Cannon can well
afford to reorganize the committees.
While such a plan would meet with loud
opposition from the men who are set
aside, the party would benefit, and Mr
Cannon would be again chosen Speaker
by-he united vote of his party. He Is
belntf strongly pressed to adopt a reform.
