the storm of public protest which fol

game commission had caused him to
change his attitude toward Finley's
retention, was Intimated by Senator
Bell in a sepech on the floor of the
senate this morning In an attempt to
bring about immediate and favorable
action on the house bill providing for
a legislative investigation of the fish
and game squabble. ,
"I have been told these things and

The fires kindled by the removal
of Finley burst into flame for a few
minutes in the senate this morning
and were only quenched by the tem
porary tabling of the '.house resolution
providing for an Immediate legisla
tive investigation into the affairs of
the state fish and game commission.
Senator Gill led the fight against
the Investigation in defending his re
port unfavorable to the house bill. An
investigation of the kind provided for
was entirely unnecessary and uncall
ed for In view of th Investigation of
the commission lust completed by a
committee named by Governor Olcott
last August he declared.
Gill's assertion that the commission
would have hesitated in removing
Finley If it could have foreseen the
storm of protest Which this action
would bring from the people of the
state was refuted by Benator Bell who
characterized the storm of protest as
"mere rot" coming from people who
knew nothing of ther facts which led
up to Finley's dismissal.
Olcott Proposed Action.
"I understand that Governor Ol
cott, himself, first proposed the re
moval of Finley," declared Bell who
insisted that the people of the state

ABOUT MURDER
As soon as it is definitely known
who will be the republican nominee
for secretary of state Ben V. Olcott
will resign from that position and ap
point the nominee as his successor,
according to a statement made by
Governor Olcott this morning. The
governor's statement is brought about
by the decision of the Oregon su
preme court of Tuesday through
which he will retain the office of gov
ernor for the full unexpired term of
the late Governor Withycombe. In
the decision of the court In the In
stance of the Olcott-Hoff crtse Olcott
was declared to possess the right to
lesign as secretary of state and to ap
point a successor if he so desired. The
opinion at that time, however, failed
to decide his tenure of office. It was
generally exepected at that time that
in the event he should resign he
would name Sam A. Kozer, present
deputy secretary of state, to the sec
retaryship.. The governor's statement follows:
"In light of the supreme court de
cision handed down covering the stat
us of the governor's office, I wish to
say that immediately after it has been
definitely decided who is the success
ful republican nominee for the office
of secretary of state at the primaries
in May, I shall resign as secretary of
state and appoint the successful re
publican nominee to that office. I
think it is now too close to the pri
mary nominating election to appoint
anyone as secretary of state. By walt-
inn tVi. roHiilt of tha nrimnries it will
bo possible to appoint the choice of are entitled to know what he faos In
the republican voters to serve until , ne conroversy reuny were

Philock, formerly the head of an Amer
lean colony and the first witness today

cans and the conditions which resulted

Mr. Blalock told how the conimun-

also were at the hearing to testify.

mittee, said that In the even of a for

he voulc1 place It before the committee.
Ho added he would consider such an

that the Mexican government would
