OREGON'S LARGEST AND BEST FURNITURE HOUSE O Firsts ON YAMHILL Second SpecialCookingDem onstration, Coffee, Cakes.BiscuitsServ'd FRIENDS OF BIRDS MEET OFFICEKS ELECTED BY ORE GOX AIDIBOX SOCIETY. Boily 'WorklnK for Reservation ol I.uad as Breeding Ground ' for AYaterfowl. The annual meeting and election' of officers of the Oregon Audubon Society was held at the rooms in the City Hall last night. The members decided to continue their efforts in bird protetion by securing: more territory, either through state or National Government, to be Ret aside as a protected breeding ground for waterfowl. For several years the National Association of Au dubon Societies has advocated this as a fundamental movement in bird and ani mal protection. Over a dozen wild-bird reservations have been eet asido In va rious parts of the United Htaten. Last October, by special proclamation of President Roosevelt, the first reserva tion oft the Pacific Coast was sot aside at Netarta Bay, Tillamook County, for the protection of sea birds. . It was decided that the society raise the necessary funds to send two of Its representatives, Herman T. Bohlman and William L. Flnley, into the lake re gion of Southern Oregon for the pur pose of hunting out the best available places and securing; these as permanent breeding reserves for our- waterfowl. When these-are secured, they will be placed In charge of a reliable warden, as .are the other reserves secured' by the Audubon Association. The report of the Secretary, Dr. E. J. Welty, showed that the past year has been the most active in the history of the organization. The educational work has done much to spread knowledge as to the economic value of bird life. Be sides the illustrated lectures that have been given under the auspices of the Oregon Audubon Society In various towns throughout the state, many edu cational leaflets on our common birds have been distributed. The series of leaflets, listing and describing the birds of Oregon, wiiich are edited by Mr. Fin ley and published" by the State Biolo gist, are meeting the demand for in formation concerolns the birds of the state. Among other subjects discussed was j the securing of better game laws and ! more careful obedience to these. , A j resolution was passed favorine a law ' which would close the hunting season J lor elk during a term of years. This is deemed necessary to save the species from extermination. At the suggestion of the society5 the manual training department of ttte city schools is actively interested in the making ot birdhouses. As soon as these are completed, an exhibition of the workmanship will be made, and then the bird homes will be placed about the city at the opening of Spring. In this way an effort will be made to furnish homes fr blue birds, wrens and swallows that are being driven out by the English sparrows. The . following officers were chosen for the ensuing year: President. .Wil liam Li. Flnley; first vice-preeident, A. W. Anthony: second vice-president, Horatio H. Parker; recording secre tary. Miss Watson; corresponding sec retary. Dr. B. .T. Welty; treasurer. H. T. Bohlman; advisory committee. Miss Mary F. Isoni, K. w. Valient. Miss Fanny Ci. Porter. Mrs. C. M. Cartwrigh't. Dr. J. Whitcomb Brougher, Mre. J. A. Strowbridge and Mrs. John Cran. W. T. Shanahan and governor Chamber lain were elected honorary members. U'HEN THE STEP-FATHER MRS. WALDO ADDRESSES THE GRANGE ON INITIATIVE. Says Vote No on Every Measure Not Understood Condemns Too Free Use of the Measure.. ' SALKM, Or., Feb. $. (Special.) "Vote no on every measure you do not under stand," was the advice given to the! mem bers of Salem Grange today by Mrs. Clara Waldo, grand lecturer of the State Grange. "Study the bills and proposed amendments as much as time and oppor tunity will permit, and vote for them if you think them meritorious, and against them if they are not, but if you do not understand them, the only safe way is to vote no. We can better afford to wait a while for desirable "legislation than to take the chance of adopting blindly some tli'ns w" do not want." Mrs. "Waldo's address was the princi pal event of the afternoon session of the Grange. In the course of her remarks she took occasion to pay her respects to W. a TJ'Ren, whose activity in promoting initiative measures she strongly con demned. The proportional representation bill she particularly criticised upon the ground that it provides no modus ope randi. Notwithstanding the overburdened condition of the ballot as a result of ef forts at dlreet legislation, she described the initiative and referendum as the "pearl of great price" In popular govern ment, but hoped the voters would show their disapproval cf too frequent resort to this method of enacting laws. Speaking further upon Mr. TJ'Ren, Mrs. Waldo denied that he is the father of the initiative and referendum. She declared that this amendment was first Indorsed by the State Grange and that Mr. TJ'Ren became interested In it because he was 'secretary to Seth Llewelling, chairman of the committee to which the matter was referred for investigation and report. She acknowledged, however, that TJ'Ren might be a step-father. Taxes Lower in 1100. I'MINNVLLLK, Or., Feb. 8. (Spe cial.)
