The supreme court. In affirming
yesterday a decree of Judge George

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.
