A Game Shake-Up
Appointment of Will L. Finley, naturalist and biologist, as
stale gamo commissioner, is one of the best that Governor
Pierce has made. It insures that game affairs will at last be
taken out of politics and the game work of tho slate be
devoted to protection and propagation of wild life instead of
remaining a political football. That is, it will be if the
governor gives a free hand. If not, we can expect Mr. Finley
to go the way of Hugh Mitchell.
What puzzles everyone is how the appointment came to be
made, for as Mr. Finley not only knows something about
wild-life, but knows probably more than anyone in the state,
under all the rules that govern the political game, he.is com
pletely disqualified for the office. It will be a strange thing
to have anyone connected with the game commission who
knows anything about the subject.
The game commission was first organized under Governor

They must be replaced by those necessitated by nature. c
open our angling season in the midst of the spawning season,
simply because this is what is done in eastern slates where
" the only trout is tho eastern brook that spawns in the fal i
instead of spring, just as we follow eastern example and
roof bridges for snow altho we have none. As long as we
tolerate the taking of ripe gravid and spent trout and refuse
to give nature a chance, all the hatcheries in the world
cannot replenish our streams. , ,.oln,i ;
However all of those who are generally inteiested in
wild-life apart from the more desire for slaughter will
welcome an intelligent administration of game matters.

while peacefully traveling north on
the Pacific highway between Rose-

up and bawled out a similar oruer.

like to know is this. What right
has a traffic guardian to compel

tlon to absolutely get off the high
way to allow a caravan to DreaK
all the speed rules of the road. liy
what authority can the traffic of

Sunday, thousands of cars were out

There waa no emergency for speed

Tho Mikado, ' presented last
night before an audience that till

number f special chairs brought in
Cor tho occasion and a ring of peo

iniullun that has yet been seen at
the Chautauqua. Tho colorfully
decorated stage, tho costumes and
the general presentation of the well
known comic opera combined to
make the number a success.
BEftLS EXPECTED TO
ABIDE BY DECISION
If Attorney Cieneral Van AVinlOo
bolds that A. O. Eeals cannot le
gally hold office as a member of
the state fish commission and at
tho same time hold office as state
senator, it is understood that he
will resign as senator. This was
the opinion expressed here yester
day by Senator S. M. Garland of
Lebanon, who also waa appointed
on the fish commission and whose
status is tho same as that of Heals,
except that Garland has not yet
taken office as commissioner. Gar
land indicated that he would pre
jfer to sit in the senate than as a
I member of the fl.sh commission.

For a moment Cynlhia did not
