ARE IT TO HOLD
Because of the uncertainty of the
status of the Oregon fish and game
commissions as a result of recommen
dations made by" ' Governor -.Walter
Pierce in his address to the state!
legislature, the meeting of the Oregon
Slate Sportsmen's association, set for
Sunday, January 18, has been called
off.
This announcement was made today
by Karl (.'. Simmons, president of the
organization.
"Wo haven't any idea ns to what
action I lie lawmakers will take on the
governor's suggestion, of putting the
supervision of Oregon's fish suit game
into the hands of a department of
Oregon Agricultural college, under
supervision of tho O. A. (.'. bonrd of
regents," says .Mr. Simmons. "It
would be futile to hold a meeting and
transact business when the legisla
ture, in one measure would be likely
to spoil everything that is done. The
best we can do Is to sit and await de
velopments." Mr. Simmons has instructed the
legislative committee of the Oregon
Sportsmen's association to assemble
in Salem, to be ready for any emer
gency that may arrive. This commit
tee is hea,ded by Dr. Moore of Port
land. Labor Still Slow
Says F. L. Armitage
Although good business is predicted
for 10"."i, it is too early In the year
for all industries to produce at capa
city and it is too early in the year
for agricultural work and construc
tion activities to be in full swing, ac
cording to Frank D. Armituge, direct
or of the United States employment
bureau here. Inventor period is ovrr,
and general plsns for the year have
been made with the result that dur
ing the last few weeks a great many
men have been employed and have
started work.
"Approximately J0O per cent of
the saw mills of Lane county are run
ning at average eight-hour capacity,"
said Mr. Armitage. "There arc few
changes of men and little cull for ad
ditional mill workers. There has been
a amsll reiucst for millwrights. An
increase in applications for employ
ment from smsl! towns indicates a
large potential labor reserve. The ma
jority of unemployed men now in
Lane county is ninde up chiefly of itin.
erant laborers from California and

Duck Season Ends; .
Trout Fishing is
Chief Sport Left
With the duck season a thing of the
past, local sportsmen are at a loss for
their outdoor entertainment as the
only sport now open is trout fishing

best at present.

State Executive
STATE HOUSE, S.U.EM, Jan W.
A sharp line between tho policies
of Governor Waller M. Pierce and
those of the lawmakers is the out
standing development 'of tho first
week of the session of tho legisla
ture. In hia message the governor
burled himself vigorously Into the de
fense of Market Agent C. E. Spji.JC
and hia department. Yet on the aamc
day Senatora Rltner and Taylor, the
latter a democrat, introduced a bill
for the abolition of that department
and the return ot grain InspcclWiu tu
the public service commr'sslon.
Consolidation of state aepurlmeuts
lias been preached by the governor
during the first two yenra of his ad
ministration and is urged in his mes
sage. Vet Senator Hall, who was the
author of one of the outstanding con
solidation bills In inL','1, cumo forward
on the first day uf the present Bession
with a joint resolution that would
dismiss the merger question with the
appointment of a special committee of
legislators and members from the
stntc at large tn mnke a atudy of the
question and report cither during this
session or tn tlie session of 19L'7.
Favored Amendment.
Ratification of tho child labor
amendment proposed for the federal
constitution Is favored by the gov
ernor, but indications are that the
Oregon legislature will refiise to rat
ify it. A poll of the house indicated
(his, and an inquiry among the sen
atora, revealed the Bame sentiment
in the upper body.
Governor Pierce will faro better
relative to hia prohibition policy than
he will with respect to any other sub
ject affecting bla administration thnr
has come up this week.
The resolution from the senate
committee on alcoholic traffic calling
for an Investigation of file stste pro
hibitlon department passed unani
mously in the senate nud with a single
dissent in the house. But both the
governor and Prohibition Ageot tie
aver Invited the prone. Otherwise
there doubtless would have been some
dissenting voles.
Investigators to Meet,
The prohibition Investigation com
mittee will hold a meeting Monduy
night at wblcji Governor Pierce, Pro
hibition Agent Cleaver, W. J. Herwig,
head of the Oregon Antl-S.iloon lea,
tie, and the presidents of the sheriff's
and the district attorney's associa
tions of the state, will appear. After
that the committee will operate much
the same as a court with various wit
nesses sppesring snd a court reporter
to take down the testimony. Home
meetings will be in executive session;
others will be open.
A number of other bills and resolu
tions have reached tne senate al
ready that are expected to start
fights. One of these la the Hull
resolution for a Joint house and sen
ate committee to confer with reprea
relative-! of the California nnd Wash
lugton legislatures on the question nf
a uniform speed, lighting and other
regulations for uutomobiira. An at
tempt was made to pasa this resolu
tion before It had been printed, but it
was tabled. Later In the day, after It
bad been printed Senator Hall brought
It up again, but it waa referred to
the roads and highways committed.
It may cause a spirited figiit. Some
senators object to it on grounds th.it
the committee would spend a lot of
