Local Sportsmen Make Appli
cation For Another Game
Warden. ,
THE LAWS ARE VIOLATED
Interested Parties Ilellcvo Decisive
Steps Should lie Taken
at Once.
A number of local sporesmon and
othern who Interest thomselvos In
preserving the game found In Coos
county aro applying to Slate Game
Warden J. W. Baker, of Cottage
Grove, for additional aid In bring
ing law-breakers to justice. For the
whole of Coos county there Is but one
warden at tho present time, and the
need for another one Is said to be
urgent by those who have kept them
selves poBted on tho conditions which
prevail during tho season for door.
Now (that elk aro up for slaughter
this season, f.ho local pooplo feol
that they should bo protected If pos
sible, according to the rules which
govern tho killing of this fast-disappearing
animal.
There aro but few oik In tho state,
and many were sadly disappointed
that tho last session of the legisla
ture did not extend tho close season
on oik for ten moro years. A bill
was passed with this provision In It,
but tho Governor vetoed It after the
legislature had adjourned, so It is
claimed by Interested parties.
There had been two wardens In
Coos county until lately, C. W. Noah
and Glenn Alken. Noah recently
sent In his resignation, but the State
Warden did not see fit to accept it,
and so has let tho matter drift along,
expecting Noah would serve. But
the Warden did not understand his
man, and Noah Is determined to let
somebody olse hunt violators of tho
game laws, and so is not serving.
Cal Wright Is montlonod, and will
bo ured as a candidate for appoint
ment, since ho Is a true sportsman,
and if he is appointed and can bo
prevailed upon to act, would fill the
ofllco with credit.
It Is not particularly for tho elk
tho demand for another warden
arises, but it is well known many
'"Tactions of the law occur during
the deer season. Coos county is,
and rightly so, proud of tho fact that
within her borders there is gamo of
this variety, and therefore feels dis
posed to preserve it as long as pos
sible and as well.
Several local parties, In discussing
the situation, stated It as their be
lief that as a matter of pride, Coos
county citizens would keep within
tho law during tho game season, but
others wore as positive that there
aro many who kill out of season
and moro than tho law allows, with
out regard to prldo or any other
sontimont, except to satisfy a greed
for killing.

LUMBER PRICES

Tho high, prices on various grades

vantage of tho reduction. Houses

strike occurred. Hustle tumbled
from ?2C to 1C and $18; flooring,
from $28 and $30, to $18 and $20;
ship lap from $15 to $13; dimension
and shingles rule about tho same, at

aro about tho same, perhaps a little
lower.

W. C. Harris of Sumner Pre
pares To Retire From
Business.
ALSO SELLS THE HOTEL
May Sell Kami First, of Septembei
To James Clark, of Spring
field. Captain W. C. Harris was in the
city yesterday and 'was interviewed
by a Times representative regarding
tho report that tho gonial mayor of
Sumner was about to retire from
active life along tho lines of farm
ing and other strenuous pursuits In
which ho has been engaged for nine
years since coming to Oregon.
The rumor was only partly true,
It was learned, that while Captain
Harris has sold his hotel and boat
lino to tho Masters Brothers, ho will
continue farming for tho present, a(
least. This Is contingent, however,
for he is under contract to sell his
farm on the first day of September to
James Clark, of Springfield. .
It was nine years ago htat Captain
Harris located on tho ranch where
lie Is now living, and by industrious
attention to cultivating the same
and working up a remunerative
dairy and cheese business, he has
accumulated a comfortable compet
ence, and is ready to retire and take
life more easy than he has of late.
Under tho .present arrangement, he
will have nothing on his hands with
tho exception of his cheese factory,
and in case the option for the farm
Is taken up, he will be able to lay
this down on tho first of September.
The sale which was completed on
Monday, included the sale of the
gasolene boats Sumner and Curlew
and the hotel at Sumner. The Sum
ner carries the United States mail,
and this contract goes with the sale
of the boats. These boats make the
trips between tne head of navigation
on Catching Inlet and Marshfleld
once each day. The Sumner leaves
for Marshfleld every morning with
the mail at three o'clock and returns
leaving Marshfleld at six. The Cur
lew carries freight and passengers
and leaves for tho city at 7:30, re

Tho hotel has "b-

tho Masters Brothers will keep up
the excellent service.
Captain Harris built up this trans
portation business and it amounts to
a considerable sum In the course of a
year. Tho boat service does not
reach Into Sumner and ends at the
head of navigation, about rf mile and
a quarter from there. From tho boat
landing, passengers and freight nro
transported to Sumner by railroad,
over a narrow guago lino constructed
by tho Southern Oregon Company.
Captain Harris has obtained a rep
utation throughout Oregon as a
cheese manufacturer and last year
secured first prize at tho Oregon

Fire.
Flames of an unknown origin
leaped up and over tho lumber mill
of Stoddard Bros., about 1:30 o'clock
this morning and in less than an
hour left nothing of tho plant but a
few flaring sticks. Fanned by a
stiff south breeze, the fire fairly ate
its way into tho heart of tho sea
soned mill structure and there was
littlo'for the Are department tp do
but to prevent tho spread of the con
flagration to tho adjoining piles of
lumber and other structures. This
they were finally able to do, but
their efforts would have been fruit
less had not tho somewhat Isolated
location of tho mill favored them..
From the company bookkeeper it
was learned that the mill plant was
worth from ten to fifteen thousand
dollars, arid that no insurance was
carried on it. Three million feet of
lumber were piled In tlie yard, and
