id MB FISH
OF
ARD PRESSURE
Controversy . Rises Whether
Lower Rogue Shall Again
Be Opened to Seming; 1s in
Macleay Interests' Hands.
. ' ' . 't Staff CufimponiU'iKT.)
Salem, Or., Keb. rumors of
pressure brought to bear on legislators
to influence their action in regard to
, certain feature of the present bill 10
open lower Hogue river to commercial
fishing, were partly aired In the house
this morning'.
Kor some time there has been talk
that there might be "sampthing in" It"
for the legislator who could bet inserted
In the bill a provision that - seining
should be permitted through the entire
open season under the ' proposed law.
This Went , so far that out member of
the fisheries committee was approached
in an Indirect way and Riven to under,
stand it mlffhtvbe-worth bis while f
the seining clause could be retameu in
the measure. -
This legislator, in answer, refused to
have anythlnar to do with the proposal
He was one of those responsible for
having inserted In - a substitute bill,
which was reported back to the house
this morning by the fisheries committee,
a provision prohibiting seining in the
Chinook salmon seasons, and permitting
it only from September 1 to November
15 each year, when SilverBides are run
' ning. "" " -
Upton and the Steam Boiler.
A hot skirmish on the bill was pre
cipitated when" Representative Belland
of Clatsop, in a minority report; recom
mended' that the whole bill be defeated
because It permitted seining at all.
"I realize that K is very dangerous
at this time to vote against the steam
roller." said Belland. Referring to
I'ptori of Multnomah, a member Of the
committee who has been Insistent that
everything asked by the Roderick Mac
leay interests, who have been lobbying
strenuously for the seining privilege, be
eranted, Belland continued:
"Tho roller Is In charge of one of the
best engineers, and it has its safety
valve tied down. 'To go up against It
mean) to be crushed.
"But I am opposed to this measure
because it Is framed wholly in favor of
the millionaire fishing interests. It is
not in the interests of the people at
all." .
Have lower Bogus Clacked.
Belland charged that the Macleay in
teresta own all the land on both sides
of the river for at least 15 miles from
the mouth., He declared that if seining
were permitted the Macleay interests
would be absolutely in control of the
river, because no one could sein except
on their land, and that fishermen would
be compelled to bring all their fish to
them. '. ,: - t
Nicholas, of Douglas, declared that
the bill was framed lit the interests of
" the ' Macleay people, successors, of the
Hume estate. , Jf the bill were passed, he
said, it would leave the river bottled up
as In oldidaya, I; .'vvv
Peirce of Onrry, .who fought in com
mittee to prohibit seining during the
chlnook salmon season, and suoceeded
la getting the substitute bill amended
to permit Seining only from September
1 to November 16, explained this feature
of the measure. v : ,
Macleay Spokesman Is Heard.
TJpton defended the Macleay Interests.
He said, that Belland was opposed te
seining on general principles, and de
nied that, thft Macleay interesta have
exclusive control of the river. A large
industry.and many persons are affected,
ne said. ,
- The- majority report, submitting the
substitute. bill, waa adopted. One fea
ture of his bill opens the Rogue to the
people of Josephipe county from half a
mile below the steel bridge at Grants
Pass t to . the mouth of Jump-off Jod
eeok,about 12 miles, but only from
April 15 to May 15 of each year. This
tweessjon was Obtained bv Gill of
Clackamas. There is sure to be a fight
by the Josephine county representatives
, io icnguien tula open season.
- - Jwyem for the Macleay g.
fix -United States Senator C. V, Fulton
, and Jay Bowcrman have, been 'attorneys
. for the Macleay interests, and Macleay
himself has appeared before the com
mittee. .Before last Sunday, Sanderson
Reed of Portland was also one of Mac
Wy's legal representatives. His ef
forts to force the committee to include
, the seining provision, however, are said
to have been construed by members as
an attempt to bulldoae them. It Is
known that one. ofthe committee had
the intimation conveyed to Reed that
bis presence Was not desirable, and he
lias not appeared here since.
In the senate today a resolution was
indorsed by Senator Kellaher to repeal
the present Initiative measure passed
by the people in 1910, which closes .the
, , Rogue to all commercial fishing, and
. submitting a bill for vote in 1911.
" - Default Divorce DcireeN.
'Default divorce decrees were granted
this morning to Anna. Collins from M J
Collins by Circuit Judge Gatens for
cruel and inhuman treatment, and by
Judge Davis to Marguerite Christensen
from William W. Christensen for de
sertion. '-Judge Davis announced that no
decrees in default cases will be granted
unlets the plaintiff appears In person in

DIVORCE POUTIGS
. AND CITY BUSINESS
Gay Lombard,. Candidate for
Mayor, Declares Two Have
No Legitimate Relation.
'In an address before the 1'orlland
Realty Board thin afternoon, Gay Loin
bard, candidate for mayor of Portland,
declared that he believed no legitimate
excuse for politics bqlng a part of city
government exists, and declared that ho
was doing all 1n his power to divorce
one from the other.
"Thu 'first questions the lioinescekcr
coming to Portland asks concern' thv
government, what the titxos are' and
plans fur improving the icily and beau
tifying it," he sold. "A city cannot be
recommended if it is governed by politi
cians. The commission form of govern,
ment is the means to meet.the. good gov
eminent ends."
"One thing 1 nave noticed in rortiana .
Is that there Is not a single organtsa-
tlon In the city that has for Its pur-
pose the olvic betterment of Portland, I
and there is not another city of the ,
same siae in the Lnitcd States that i
aoes not nave an rsiiiumi iui pviy
betterment. . '' : '
The reason for this la that Portland
people do not .realize that the effects
of political government will have to be
paid for dearly some time In the future.
Especially in the matter of franchises
is this true. Some time in the future
we will be handicapped by our gener
osities of today. ' I advocate adequate
remuneration for air franchises."
Mr. Lombard then attacked thfe pres
ent city charter, declaring It to be inad
equate. "As political power perpeiu
ator, it la a perfect masterpiece," be
said. "There is now no way to fix
responsibilities for certain things un
done, or improperly done in the affairs
of the city. As a matter of fact, it Is
used as a means of evading responsibil
ity. There are too many offices pro
vided for and too much red tape in the
matter of improvement," he declared.
The commission form of ' government
was then discussed and indorsed by Mr.
Lombard, and the official city charter
that was submitted to the voters at the
last election
waa brought up ana ais- i
Cussed.' -:
"1 advocate special city election on
May 3, when the primaries will be held, J
to pass again on this one charter lor
the commission government, and I be
lieve It wilt pass, and that by July the
city will be operating under a new form
of government. Too many charters
frighten the voters, and they turn all of
them down. One thing this charter will
do for ,the betterment of the City. It
will pay adequate salaries to officials,
It will fix responsibilities and eliminate,
red tape."
As a result of the mention by Mr.
Lombard that there was no civlo league
in Portland, a motion w'as passed that
a ' committee of five be appointed to
confer with other organizations in the
city with a view of perfecting such an
organisation.

Washington, Feb. T.Four American
warships today were ordered to the

Beside the Annapolis, which sails from
San Diego for Guaymas, the crulBer
Denver goes to Acajutla, Salvador; the

ering arms in large quantities in New
Orleans for the prist three months.
