In affirming yesterday a decree of Judge George R. Bagley of Tillamook count in the case of the ktate vs. Vern Blancbard. appellant, saves as to their validity practically all fish and game laws or the state, settles for all time the question whether the legislature can protect the fish In any certain stream or the game in any certain locality. and hands down an opinion that sets a precedent on which all local legis lation in the future doubtWs will be based, drawing a hair line dis tinction between what Is local and special legislation and what Is not. The opinion is written by Chief Jus tice McBride and is the first Inter pretation of the state constitution in this respect. Dog Doctrine I IWene. Blanchard. the defendant In the case, was Indicted and convicted on a charge of stretching a set net more than one-third of the way across Hoquarton slough, in Tillamook county, contrary to a law that speci fically mentions that stream. In defense, Blanchard and his attorneys put forward the doctrine enunciated by the supreme courtt la a previous case, which declared unconstitution al a law prohibiting noes to run at large in four specifically named counties of the state. The distinc tion drawn by the court is that the Hoquarton slough, which would ap ply as well to any other stream. Is Hate-wide in Its effect because it affects all persons who come with In the jurisdiction of the law. On the same grounds the court y ester day dismissed a petition for rehear ing la the case of the state vs. 8av age. which involved the statute mak ing It unlawful for crabs to be sbin- ped out of Tillamook county, hold ing that the law Is valid. Authority Is Coatrary. The court admits that the weight of authority Is against the opinion given today, but says the Importance of the fishing Industry must hare consideration and at the same time shows the possibility of making the laws conform to the constitution. Had the court decided otherwise. It Is said .practically every fish and game law In the state would have been npset.
