(Salem Bureau of Tbe Journal.) Salem, Or., Feb.-1 3. -Under suspen sion of the rules this afternoon, the house passed the bill reported into tbe legislature by the Joint fisheries com mittees of the house and senate in conference with a like committee of the Washington legislature to unify the fishing regulations over the Co lumbia river where the two states have concurrent Jurisdiction. Representative D. C. Lewis of Mult nomah protested against the action, declaring It legislation hurried through on too rapid a fire principle to suit him. - . Inasmuch as the bill had been printed only today, he felt he ought to have a chance to read it. For this he was reminded by Speaker Selling that the bill is an absolute copy of the report of the fish commission and that the house should have sufficient confidence in the committee to adopt it, particularly as it had answered every requirement of the two states. Although nobody questioned the bill, Mr. Lewis kept up his attitude of being "steam rollered," and was the only member - to vote no.

FORCING IRRIGATION ISSUE IS GAINING (Salem Bureau of The Joomal.) Salem, Or., Feb. 13. Sentiment of members of the legislature who could be seen tonight was strongly against any further effort on the part of Ore gon to invite federal aid for irrigation projects, regardless of Secretary Lane's S . . . . . . : i i M 6' Used Make to Choose From Everything in Stock Taken in Exchange t. Street, Corner Twelfth promise to recommend a congressional appropriation of $460,000 for central Oregon. Four members of the senate committee on irrigation declared th. y would oppose any effort to force the issue now. - :,".-. The -bill presented in the house by J. T. ilinkie, chairman of the irriga tion committee, was defeated last week by a heavy vote, the eastern Oregon delegation being divided on the ques tion, and the Influence of Multnomab county, being not ' strong enough nor united enough to convince the Wil lamette valley members that the out lay of 4S0,000 to match the gover nment appropriation would be an ad visable expenditure, f- - Senator Robert R. Butler, of Wasco county, a member of the senate ir rigation committee, said tonight: "I favored a bill at th last Session appropriating 1450,000 for the Tumalo project. 'Now, unless any new bill intro duced here to appropriate the money is to be ratified by the people with a referendum -clause, I cannot favor It." Senators Ragsdale, Stewart: and Strayer, ether members of the senate committee, expressed themselves posi tively opposed to any further appro priations by the state until the govern ment does keep its half of the bargain. Representative Allen Baton of Lane county had opposed the passage of the )460.OOO appropriation because It ap peared to him that the projects already reclaimed were not yet settled upon and because he felt that there was no definite assurance that the government would match the money. When asked of the poasibllty for bringing about a change in the sentt ment of the house in the light of the assurance received today from Secre tary Lane, Mr. Eaton replied that such a contingency would - require a two thirds vote of the house and might not meet with favor, i I). C. LewiH, member of the house irrigation committee, declared he would favor a resubmission' of the bill in the house and would make every ef fort to secure reconsideration. He felt that one reason the eastern Oregon members were divided on the question was the uncertainty of getting gov ernment aid. t After tbe $450,000 appropriation bill was defeated in the house. Chairman Hinkle made no fight to have his bill providing for a half 'mill general tax avfd from Indefinite postponement. ByXdclaring that he had made his whole fight on the former measure, he aid he was willing to abide by the Verdict of the house and the bill was not debated on its merits. I Sajre Is Considered.
