OREGON STUDIES LAW
(By La Follotto's Weekly.)
Tho voters of Orogou will pass on
thirty-tow laws nt tho next oloctlon.
Soino may think this too ninny to bo
xnastorod hy tho voters of tho state
In four months; but tho Orogonlnns
nay they Buspect that they can bc
como ns Intelligent as to tho merits
of thirty-two lawa In four months as
is tho average legislator concerning
thoso ho votos upon. Tho loglalaturo
passes on an avorago of GOO laws in
40 days, or at tho rato of SO a day.
The votors havo n chanco to put In
their leisure tlmo for 120 days on
tho 1910 batch or about four days
to a law.
Anyhow, thoy feel like making
tholr own guesses at their own laws,
with such light upon them as the
Campaign UUCUIIIUUIH JiriUlUU UBU mr-
alshcd by tho state may shed, rather
than take the guesses of tho legisla
tors who often ceo by the garish glare
of the Illumination from tho corpo
rate lighting plants. And up to dato
the Oregoilans havo legislated very
intelligently.
Really their problems thts fall
aro not as complex as tho reactionary
press -would havo ono think. Many of
the bills aro referendums on such
things as tho establishment of nor-
nal schools at certain points, merger
of counties, creation of new coun
ties, fishery rights in rivers, and
salaries of public officers which
may bo regarded as formal matters
such as new and growing states al
ways have to settle. There aro thlr-
teen of these, and therefore only to call a convention to revise tho Ore
alneteen of tho measures aro such j gon constitution. Tho "revision"
as wo usually have in m!n when we hoped for Is tho elimination of the

And these nineteen aro not so i constitution, especially tho initlativo
many quite separato measures. Sev-, the referendum and tho recall. It is
eral nro merely the "yea" and "nay" ! opposed by tho grange, tho trade
forms of the same questions, and unions and tho progressive forces
therefore -when tho voter passes on ' generally. Its supporters seem to bo
one he decides on tho other. For ' frankly reactionary. Voters support
testance, organized labor las before j ing this law aro sure to bo against
tee peoplo an employers liabilitjy
law, -while the employers have pend
ing a bill fo r. commlcsion to draft
an .employers' liability law. Tho one
is 'designed to kill the other. The
HEW RULES
FOR FISHING
-Master Fish Warden Clanton Raises
Regulations Regarding Fishing in
Oregon Streams Nets Cannot be
Stretched but Third Across Channel
Martejr Fish Warden R. E. Clan
ton has drafted a new form of rules
govornlng net flshlns In tho streams
or tnis state wnicn are coMronea oy Mrg LJzz,0 HamIIton Wm. W. Ham
law. Under tho new regulations tonj Q w H!:n,llton B. A. Ham.
each and every net in operation must j Uonj Mar,0 Hammond( Mrs. W. H.
be covered by a separate crd distinct ( Hoganf Mrs- s Jam03 Harvey, Wll
llcense. No stationary nets, Including ' . Hfirhert. William H. Jobo- m.
all drift or cM nets, must be stretch
ed more than one-third ;icross any
stream at any stage of tho water.
This rulo eliminates tho holding back
of salmon t'avoling upstream in sev
eral of tho small rivers. Set-net op
erators must place and maintain on
a suDsianuai pose or monument, on
the bank of the stream or channel, or
upon a buoy securely anchored on
tho location claimed for fishing pur
poses, tho number of their licenses,
preceded by an "O" in black figures
on a white foreground. Tho number
of tho license must also be branded
on the corks of each end of each
net, as well as on tho ccrk nearest
tho center tl oreof, with figures not
less than one-half Inch In length.
These same requirements aro mado
of tho gilluet or drlftnot operators,
In addition to which tho boati be
longing to tho not owners must carry
the liconso rumbor in plain eight.
By so arranging tho rules govern
ing net fisl ing, Warden Clanton be
lieves his deputies will havo less dif
ficulty in recognizing tho licensed
fishermen, and thoso who violate the
fish laws. It often occurs thpt a dep
uty becomes stranded wbllo out on
his rogular tour of inspection and is
compelled to comploto his trip on
land, and under tho present system
of marking licensed fishermen, it is
Impossible to ascertain from the shore
whether or not a net is licensed or
whether a batman carrying neta is
& fisherman within tho law.

will voto for tho labor bill; whllo an- Importance by tho outsiders,, aro
other will say "I think tt Is law ' proposals for tho aopcrato districts
should go to a commission for draft- J for onch legislator, or romovltig ro-
Ing," and will voto on tho opposing
measure. There aro otner measures
which will bo disposed of by this
Bystem of opposing opinions. Or
ganized labor has a bill for abol
ishing poll taxes and requiring a voto
of tho peoplo on all proposed laws
which tax tho peoplo. Tho Pcoplo's
Power loaguo has four measures on
tho ballet: ono for proportional rep
resentation, lncrcaso in tho scopo of
tho Initiative and rotorondum, legis
lative reform in tho legislature, and
local elections In such local affairs
jas creating now counties; ono for In
spectlon of public offices and the

bo sent to ovory registered votor;
ono to reform tho legal proccduro
by enabling three-fourths of tho Jury
In civil cases to find a verdict, and
generally to simplify procedure and
and practUo; and ono for tho ex
tension of direct primary nomina
tions to presidential campaign candi
dates, Including delegates to nation
al conventions.
These aro all drawn on the line of
j extending tho princlplo of control by
them&cses. The voters who favor ono
will in tho main make up their minds
favorably to tho others by tho same
process of thinking.
On the other hand, and standing
against all these, is tho bill of tho
standpatters of both political parties
the progressive measures for the
same reason that tho end of the
magnetic needle which does not point
to the north points south.
