How to Answer Audubon.
Tho Audubon ,8ocioty has called
tho Governor of Oregon down for nl
Iflwing tho Statu Qaino and Fish
Commission to diaehargo W. L. Fin
lay. A letter addressed to tho gov
ernor under dnto of Dee. 31 has been
given tho press for publication und a
py furnished this paper for that
jiurpoBU. Wo have publlBhed'it. Wo
'also wish to stato that wo are Rind
of tlila opportunity of proving that
'Mr. Flnloy Is of greater importance
to tho Audubon Society than to the
stato of Oregon thoreforo why should
ho be kept on a salary when ho
doesn't nttornpt to conform to the
Iirogress of .tho state or to Hoberly
consider business development.
Tho lotter to the governor recites
tho Incldont of Mr. Flnloy cqmbnt
lng certain monoy Interests that havo
Itecn sooklug to exploit tho bird res
orvatlons or Malheur r.nd Klamath
lakes and Intimates that thin Is re-
sponsible for his removal as State
Illologlst. The Society should make
an Investigation of these assertions
und sco what there Is to them and
' whether It would make any differ
ence should Mr. Flnloy continue to
i hold his statu position or otherwise.
They should also Investigate why
there. Is oven a suggestion of making
komo change- In conditions surround
ing those bird preserves nud whether
or not they are really going to ho
Injured should certain dnvolonmont
take place.
Kcully, tho big State of Oregon,
with ho fow people nud such an area
of undeveloped country where hun
dreds of thousands of pooplo could
bo taken care of and made self-supporting,
Isn't likely to allow the
Audubon Society to run Its affairs.
.Mr. Flnloy may he a noted naturalist,
but wo have people with other vis
ions; they can see starving Immunity
they can fee possibilities of develop
ment that will bring about a wonder
ful change In economic coudltlons;
thcy can see where tho crowded, half
xtarved people of the largu cities may
be brought to the big out of doors
und earn their living, ami In addition
add much to tho wealth and produc
tion of tho world; thoy can see whoVo
Kiieh a course would muau strong,
healthy children being brought up
under right conditions a new race
of human beings to take the plate
of tho "alloy rut" and tho "thug"
who has known nothing else be-.
-nuao of being brought Into the
world under such associations and
Hiirrouudli.g as to make them noth
ing olso.
Why should the Audubon Society
ttttempt to dictate to Governor Olcolt
what ho should do In connection with
Ills duties with u commission that Is
: created und financed by tho stuto of
Oregon to take care of Its 'affairs
that are entirely local and of com
niorclal luterost to this state? Does
the Audubon Society try to toll the
big fishing Industry of Alaska' or the
ro.lumblu Itlver section "wjioro to
bond In?" Doe.i It think tho state
of Oregon Is financing tho Slate (Junto
rind Fish Commission for the benefit
of bird Uers without any consider
ation for Immunity?
ir this paper had tho answering
of this open letter addressed to our
governor. It would -simply toll the
Audubon Society to go to h 1!
o
Convention Postponement.
Tho proposition of postponing tho
convention of tho Oregon State Cattle
mid yortu Association a couple of
M-ooks later meets with tho approval
of many of our people. While tho
llrst week of May would ho Just as
woll so far as local stockmun are con
cerned, it 1h rather early to expect
nil the roads to bo In shape tor
I'omfortnblH travel In curs the mode
of coming by the major portion of
ull those who will attend from other
parts of tho state. One Individual
who discussed tho matter with mom
lieru of thq association during tho
week recalled tho fact that nr i
tlmo of tho session last May In Dend
mo roads between this place and
.('r. r rr miiy wero not open to travel,
Tho writer also recalls tho fuct that.

To old castomera of oura'. lt is useless for us to announce
that this has' alway been our 'policy in business.
To prospective customers, 'the only thing we ask la that if, tljey

regardless of any loss that may result to us. "
A pleased customer leaving this store moans still other new
