talked on plans for the year before
legionnaires of this district at a
conference at Newberg Inst Thurs­
day. It is expected to hold a dis­
trict council session here soon.
Hillsboro legionnaires attending
were District Committeeman Charles

Schmidt, Robert Enschede and Bond
of Forest Grove.
Earl E. Fisher, joint senator from
Lincoln, Tillamook, Washingon und
Yamhill counties, stole the bacon
from under the noses of the political
men of his district lust April and
May. His exploit, for it was nothing
less, will reverberate through the
1929 session. For it taught some
counties that though there was a
gentleman’s agreement
that they
should furnish the district’s joint
senator, that election chickens don’t
come home to roost until the vates
are counted. Senator Fisher went
after the nomination—and got it,
while the big party boys who
thought that nothing and nobody
could defeat a former senntor, a
Tillamook business man, stood by
aghast.
Keep your eye on Senntor Fisher.
He is an interesting character. He
coins personality descriptive epi­
grams while you wait.
Here are
some of then—a better key to his
character than wo can frame with
our own words:—
“The cause of unrest is too much
rest.”
"Cares not whnt a man's religion
—provided he has plenty of it."
“Enjoys feeding n rock crusher
130 yards per day as the com­
petition is not keen."
“Does not play golf, but is fa­
miliar with a grub hoe.”

Attention to the danger to chil­
dren in riding sleds tied on to au­
tomobiles is called by local offi­
cials, who urge that parents take
every precaution to prevent them
from indulging in this practice.
Swinging from side to side may re­
sult in their crashing against pass­
ing or parked machines with danger
to life and limb.
Reticent about dates, because they
remind him of "epitaphs,” Senator
Fisher is proud of the hard work
he has done.
He is engaged in
raising horseradish near Beaverton,
operates a muskrat fur trapping
farm and business, taught school for
at least 19 winters in his county,
and is a bachelor. Was one time
editor of he Beaverton Owl, a news­
paper, anil served for three terms ns
mayor of that city. Was a repre­
sentative from Washington county in
1921 legislative session.
Born at
Beaverton, September 18, 1879, edu­
cated in Beaverton grade and high
schools, and in a Portland business
callege; likes to sing and enjoys
playing in a band; has attended the
Congregational church, and is ‘one
of the common people."
He pays his respects to the four
counties which he will represent in
tho state senate for the next four
years, nt least one of which was
surprised by his election, in these
words:—
“Tillamook
produces
annually
750.000,(100 pounds best cheese on
earth; the tallest timber in the
world grows under Lincoln county
skies; Washington county prize po­
tatoes are bringing home the bine
ribbons, and Old Yamhill claims the
champion republican campaign man­
ager. the honorable J. U. ¡Smith of
Newberg."
You bet, keep your eye on Sen­
ator Fisher. He will help make the
session interesting.
»Salem, Jan. 26«—R<*pre»entative L.
E. Wilkes of Hillsboro, has definitely
defined his policy in the state legis­
lature this year to be that of friend­
ly co-operation with his colleagues
here at Salem, but also close atten­
tion to the instructions and needs of
those at home.
In committee on counties nnd
cities yesterday he sent in a mi-
nority report on huose bill No. 182,
which provides that office hours in
county offices of counties of less
shall be

i
9 a. m. to 5 p. m. on five days of
the week and on Saturday 8 a rn.
to 1 p. m.
Representative Wilkes
presented the point of view that
Saturday afternoon was the farmers’
day in town and closing at 1 o’clock
that day would inconvenience him.
J. F. Clark, representative from
Clackumas county, introducer of tho
bill, suggested that since the general
use of the automobile the farmer
more often came into town after the
morning’s work und since at present
many of the county officer are
closed from 12 to 1 ho was obliged
to wait around until their opening.
The proposed measure would keep
them open during the noon hour.
Representative Wilkes asked Mr.
Clark to delay bringing the bill back
from committee for vote in the
house until he might determine what
Washington county wanted.
Oregon farmers, victims of stock
thieves and sheep killing dogs, arc-
no longer going to sit idly by while
their profits are taken away, judg­
ing from the results of two recent
conferences on these subjects in
which representatives of the state
college and other organizations took
part.
One conference on the thieving
evil resulted in the drafting of two
bills regulating the sale and trans­
portation of livestock and carcasses,
together with provisions for better
enforcement and heavier fines and

Representative sheep owners
ing at the college also drafted a bill
intended to make it practically
“open season" on all dogs left to
run at large at night. Other pro­
visions of the bill would assist in
reimbursing farmers for losses which
in 1(1 counties alone last year
amounted to more than $25,000 in
sheep killed, not counting injuries
and losses from fright.

Salem, Jan. 31.—Donald J. Ryan,
chairman of the county clerks’ legis­
lative committee, has been in Salem
for several days in the interests of
legislation regarding county clerks
and recorders’ fees. Both the bills
introduced this week by the Clacka-
ntns county representatives are spon­
sored by the county clerks’ legislative
committee. The measures are state­
wide in application.
In explaining the bill introduced
by Representative H. H. Chindgren,
which proposes to establish a min­
imum recorder’s fee of $1.00 for five
folios or less. Mr. Ryan explained
that the burden would be placed
upon those receiving the service.
Revenue from the recorder’s office
amotmts to approximately $10,000
per year, in Clackamas county, Mr.
Ryan states, and it is estimated that
the new bill would produce addi-
tional revenue of between $2509 and
$3000 for the county.
The second bill, introduced by
Senator Linn E. Jones, is intended
to stabilize fees for service of county
clerks, in counties having a popula­
tion of 100,000 or less, Mr. Ryan
states. It will produce a material
increase in the revenue from county
clerks’ fees, amounting to about
$1200 per year in Clackamas county
is Mr. Ryan's opinion.
