board of fish' and game commls- J
i (doners of nine members, eight of
Whom would be elected by the legls- j
tnture, will not find, its Journey I
. through the legislative mill all clear )
sailing. , This was plainly, indicated
during the joint session of the sen-J
ate fisheries and game committees'
.Monday afterntoon, when rumblings'
of violent opposition to the measure i
were allowed to creep into the dts--cussion
of .the; proposed bill,
i Senator Thomas of Jackson voiced the
' first discordant : note when he objected
' to permitting the bill to appear in pub
tic under the ctiaperonage of the Joint
-. fisheries and game; committees of the
. Hcnate and house. The bill did not meet
with the approval of the sportsmen of
y the state, Thomas declared, neither did
r It follow the recommendations of the
' governor for an entire separation of the
two interests, and which, he declared,
' he was preparing to sponsor in another
bill. ,
' 8POET8MEN AROUSEO
The sportsmen, according to 8enator
Thomas, are unalterably opposed to the
proposed double Jointed commission,
hinged on a neutral chairman, and
would hot accept the Norblad-Handley-Bean
concoction under any conidera-
j ' tlon without the bitterest kind of a
" fight. Furthermore, Thomas explained.)
, toe sportsmen were opposel . to any
'. change in the manner of naming the
I members of ' the commission which
f would fall to centralise responsibility in
f the governor.
Senator Norblad took Issue with
- Thomas' statement to the effect that the
sportsmen of 'the state were opposed to
the present commission, declaring that
,. his Information Indicated that fully 75
per cent of the sportsmen of Oregon
were well satisfied with present arrange
ments and that not a member of the
commercial fishing interests had ever
expressed any dissatisfaction with the
present commission.
"8 HOE MAKER CI.t'BS"
. A communication from the Hood River
Cbunty Game Protective association, in-
: dor sing the proposed reorganization of
V i the commission, was presented by Sena
' ' tor Nlckelsen. Thet association expressed
i the hope that the members of the pres- j
ent commission, "whose work we heartily
Indorse, be retained on the new commls-
slon." 1
President A. K. IJowns of the Oregon
: Sportsmen's league, hastily arose toex-
plain that the Hood River organization
i was not affiliated with the state asso
ciation, in fact that the Hood River ,or
' ganlsatioth together? with a sportsmen's
; olu'u at The Palles.and one at Hantiam,
; were generally known as "Carl Shoe
' maker clubs" ; that they had been or
ganized by Shoemaker In the first place,
i-re dominated Shoemaker and,
- therefore, .did nut represent the sentl
' '" mnt existing; umong the sportsmen of
;. the state' generally.
'Jj jEKK OI.COTT'N VIEW
'; I When a. resolution from the Astoria
' Kxl and Oun club, , approving Uovernor
; Olc. It's plan for divorcement of the two
Inti-rent:-, was read before the meeting.
. . ' Seuatur Norblad hastened to explain that
: the meeting tihich parsed the same was
i altogether Irregular, that there were
J onlj seven members of the club present
' and that the action lid not represent
;i the sentiment of the club of which he
himself was a member,
lit the uoursj of tlie tiiiM'uaulon of the
. . measure a point was rained as to the
probable attitude of the governor toward
the measure, both with reference to
i stripping Mm of the appointive power
and the character of the commission,
whtch Is not In line with his recommen-
1
datton for a complete divorcement of the
two interest. A committee of three, in
cluding Senators Norblad. Rltner and
Thomas, was named to interview the
governor on these points and to report
back. It is understood that the gov
ernor expressed a desire to retain the
appointive power and voiced his disap
proval of the character of the proposed
commission, but declared that the action
of the legislature in the matter would
be agreeable to him.

all men of the highest type lu their j

"Such annotations will be found un

cision, which lor 35 years has not been !

'It is vigorously contended that tiie
people should have an opportunity of
choosing their own governor. in the

cised that right. Under the n
provisions of the constitution when they
elected Withycomb rovtmnr u. I

of Governor Wlthycombe ; and every 1
voter who cast his ballot for Olcott as !
secretary of state legally knew that j
upon the death of Governor Withy
combe the duties of his office would de
volve upon the secretary of state. There '
Is no such provision In the constitution 1
as to any other state officer. Section ',
16 of article V provides that in the
event of the death or resignation of the J
incumbents, all other offices shall be
filled by appointment by'the jrovemor. 1

SO VACANCIES .11 AT OCCUR,
'While the line of succession remains
unbroken there Is no such oc
currence as a vacancy in the office of
governor."
"The governor is the chief executive
officer of the state. In whom only the
power of appointment is vested, and
in the very nature of this a vacancy
In that office would destroy the whole
plan of state government."
"In the face Of the decision In Chad
wick vs. Karhart. every attempt- to
change section 8 of article V of the
constitution has been defeated by a
vote of the people."
In dissenting from the predominating
opinion of the court. Justice Harris
contends thst the governing facts in
the case of Ohadwlck vs. Karhart, upon
which the opinion of Justice Johns is
based, are "materially different from
the controlling facta In the instant case.
"In the Chadwick case," Harris de
clared, "the only question for decision

of state and the Inauguration of an
elected governor.
DI8TI5CTIOH IS DBAWJT
"Here the Question is whether Ben W.
Olcott, whose term as secretary of state
will end on the first Monday of Janu
ary, 1921, can hold, the office of: gov
ernor for a period of two years after
the end of his term of secretary of
state in spite of the fact that there will
be . a regular biennial election in No
vember, 1920, as well as one in Novem
ber, 1922; there, a governor had In
truth been elected. While here, no gov
ernor has yet been elected ; there, the
only question decided was that the sec
retary of state could bold the office, of
governor until an elected governor could
be Inaugurated, while here, it Is con
ceded that the -secretary of state can
hold the office of governor until a gov
ernor can be elected and inaugurated.
"There a governor was elected at the
very first election occurring after the
office of governor became vacant, while
here no governor has yet been elected ;
there the court was not called upon -to
decide when a governor could be elect
ed, while here that is the sole question
for decision.
DKCI8IOX 18 CNHAMPEKED
"Since the Chadwick case does not
decide or attempt to decide when a gov
ernor can be elected, our investigation
and decision of the question presented
here is unhampered and uncontrolled by
any prior adjudication and therefore it
must first look to the constitution itself
and see whether it tells us when the
governor is to be elected. Opon turning
to that instrument we find that article
V, tiecti.ii 4. te.ls us thai, 'the governor
shall be elected by the qualified electors
of the state at the time and places of
choosing members of the legislative as
sembly' ; and upon further investiga
tion we find that November, 1920, Is the
time when and the voting places
throughout the state are the places
where the qualified electors of the state
will choose members of the legislative
assembly.
VOTERS Ml'S.T ACT
"The constitution does not slate in
express terms, nor docs it impliedly say,
that a governor cannot be elected at
the next election, and therefore we
must, on that account, ascertain what
the general rules of law are ; the rule
in this Jurisdiction has always been
tha when an elective office becomes
vacant the legal voters have the right
In the absence of a statute on the con
trary, at the next election. If there be
sufficient time to make use of the elec
tion machinery, to elect some person
to the office. This rule has been en
forced by the court in previous cases
and observed by the voters, notably
when Ben W. Olcott was .appjlnted sec
retary of state to fili a vacancy caused
by the death of Frank W. Hanson.
"Applying the general rule which
poverns elective offices, we are then
brought to the. conclusion that the legal
voters are entitled to elect a governor
in November. 1920." 8
Game Commission
Inquiry Is Indorsed
By House Members
State House. Salem, Jan. 13. The
house at Its afternoon session Mon
day continued the consideration of the
Bean resolution asking for the appoint
ment of a committee to investigate
affairs of the fish and game commis
sion and report for the Information of
the legislature In its enactment of leg
islation ' to solve the controversy.
Martin opposed the amendment of
Smith of Multnomah intended to force
the committee to report at the present
session or disband at its conclusion.
Idleman opposed the whole resolution,
contending that the fish and game com
mission was a good commission and
that the controversy was a sort of pri
vate quarrel started by a few sports
men of Portland. He was not in favor
of throwing the squabble Into the legis
lature at all.
Smith of Baker wanted the investi
gation, not only to find out what the
difficulty might be. but because the
fish and game commission had re
quested it.
Hare wanted to know whether the
committee could finish Its investigation
within the current week.
Bean said It could not, but that It
could make what investigation it could
up to the time of adjournment, and
continue its work, making its final re
port to the regular session of next year.
The resolution was finally adopted
with a vote of 47 ayes In Its favor.

BRITISH MUSEUM
FOR RARE BOOKS
Famous Newdegate Collection of
. Old Folios Falls Into Hands of
Agent of N. Y. Millionaire.
By Forbes W. Fairbairn
London, Jan. 12. - George D.
Smith's sensational and meteoric
quest for precious books was wound
up today when the Americans, out
bidding the British museum, the
world's greatest collector, acquired
the famous Newdegate library for
$150,000.
Mr. Smith, who has been in London
for several months, acting, it is said,
as agent for Henry E. Huntington, the
New Tork millionaire, has spent $1,
250,000 for rare volumes, part of which
he Is about to take back with him to
the United States- the greatest collec
tion ever carried thither in a single trip.
He will sail on the Carmanla tomorrow,
but will return in June for the rest.
ACCTIOH" IS 8ECB.ET
The Newdegate sale was conducted
with the utmost secrecy, at the request
of Sir Francis Newdegate-Newdegate,
governor -of Tasmania.
The story was revealed by Mr. Smith
himself, whose sensational bids in Lon
don auction rooms have driven many a
British collector to despair in the last
few weeks.
The famous historical library at Ar
bury Mall, Warwickshire, contains 362
volumes, which have been in the pos
session of the Newdagate family for
more than 300 years. The gem ot the
collection Is an exceptionally tall first
edition of Shakespeare's first folio, 13
by eight 'inches, printed by Isaac Jag
gard in 1623. It is in excellent condi
tion, only two leaves being missing. It
is the largest copy in existence and Is
similar to the famous Brldgewater copy.
MANY VALUABLE VOLUMES
"This Is the best deal I made on my
trip," said Mr. Smith. The British mu
seum wanted many Newdegate volumes,
which were to be put up for auction
January 23. 1 wanted the collection
because I am sailing tomorrow, so I
made my bid and It was accepted. I
think the library is one of the finest in
existence. xIt contains many of the
rarest and most celebrated volumes.
The most Important Shakespearean vol
umes In the collection include a third
edition cdW of 'As You Uke It, printed
In 1598 and valued at $10,000 ; then there
is Robert Green's 'Pandasto.' dating
from 1595. the only copy in existence,
valued at $10,000.
"There are also rare books of the
Kllzabethan period, including the plays
of Beaumont, Fletcher, Christopher
Marlowe and Edward Mores' 'Defense
of Women.'"
Further, there Is a valuable American
In the collection, including four folio
tracts on King Phillip's war and the
articles of peace ' between Charles II
and the Indian chiefs.
A system of taking footprints of chil
dren has been adopted in the New York
nursery and child's hospital to prevent
Infants born there from being given to
the wrong mothers.

SHIPPING BOARD SAYS
IT DOES NOT NEED SUM
APPROPRIATED TO IT
Chairman Payne Withdraws De-;
mand for Additional Sum .
of $125,000,000.
Washington, Jan. U. (I. N. 8.)--Chairman
John Barton Payne of th ,
shipping; board. In a letter to Chair
man Good of the house approprla.
tions committee, today formally no ;
tlfied congress that the shipping1
board will not need $125,000,000 of
the appropriation which It , ha
asked. The letter states that ap
proximately the amount has been
collected from outstanding; accounts
by the shipping board and can bo
used for current expenses.
Chairman Payne's letter to Repre
sentative Good was as follows:
"My Dear Mr. Chairman: H
"Since writing you on the fifth Jn-
stant we have held a conference of the
heads of the different divisions re our
necessities and our available funds and
have reached the conclusion that ; we
will be able to jret along during the
current fiscal year without an addi
tional appropriation: I beg leave, there
fore, to withdraw our request that I12S,-"
000,000 be made available for the our-'
rent fiscal year.
"Realising the vital importance of
keeping the appropriations ' as - low as
possible' and making cancellations and
reductions where possible, we are driv
ing the organisation so that, it 'pos
sible, we may . not be compelled to make
further calls upon congress."
