MG n FISH UE BILL AMENDED 10 SUIT SMITH iri:nt SALEM. Orr., Kelt. 21. The Rogna river fish bill was amended Bntunlny to suit the vLshe of Srnn tor of Smith of Joscpliluc comity, ro oocnlng tho Rojrao river to eommer einl fishing from April J5 to August 1, nnd paused by tho sennto Satur day afternoon. Tho measure come up in the house. thU afternoon, Rep rcAcntAtlvo Rcame has 34 votes pledged to reject the inrosurts nnd n conference committee will bo ap pointed. Senator Bmith of Cooi and Curry declared that the amendments made on motion of tho other Simht will oauHo the defeat of the hill. I to Mid Representative Renracs has assured him that tho bill cannot becomo a law with tho Rogue open for three months no to Grants Paws. Iy Rome, this wns interpreted to mean that the gov ernor will vctto the bill with such amendment., while others inferred that it only means that tho house It not likely to ncreo to tho senate amendments. Ob IVronl Ground There was littKa doubt about the passage of tho bill, ouco it enmo be foro the senate. It secured a hearing because of tho adoption of a special rule under which each senator was permitted to pick out one house bill to be advanced on the calendar. Sen ntor Day picked the Rogue river bill nnd thereby brought it to an unes jjectcdly early vote. Smith of Jcscphinc' appealed to the senate on personal grounds, Baying that he had never asked any appro priation for his district, but has stood behind nil appropriation bills for oth er senators, and ashed them to vote for his amendments in consequence. Tho amendments were made in the rommitteo of tho whole. Smith of Coos declared it was necessary to leave tho bill untouched as it came from the house, if it is to pass at all. The other Smith had his way, how ever, and every amendment proposed by the man from Grants Pass was adopted. These amendment, extend tho time for commercial fishing in Josephine below Grants Pass to threo months, instead of ono month, and movu tho commercial limit tip the river to the foot of Sixth street in Grant Pass. Von der Ilellen of Jackson joined in tho protest, saying the bill as it came from the house was a satisfac tory compromise. Smith Make Retort Smith retorted it was no compro mise at all. Ho said tho Josephine peoplo had not been able to wino nnd dine the legislators ns other interests have. Joseph offered an amendment to submit the bill to popular vote jn 1014, but this was ruled out of order, tho senate baring gone iuto the com mitteo of the whole for the purpose of amending specifio sections. rnrrcll supported the bill, saying ho did not believe the people under stood what they were doing when tncy voted to closo the nver in jDIO, The final vote on tho pavsago of tho amended bill was as follews: Ayes Uarrctt.Uenn, Burgess, Rut ler, Calkins, Carson, Farrcll, Hawley, Hollis, Kiddle, Moser, Patton, Per kins, Ragsdule.
