irR MAIL- TRU3lTN13 is
iion front M. L. Allison
this paper's remarks upon the spite work going on in
Klamath county, wherein those who failed in tho effort.
to recall County .Judge Wortlen are, turougn tne courts
forcing Klamath county to repudiate its just debts.
2sTo reason or excuse is offered for the repudiation, but
an invitation is extended to
Nod and head the move to
Mr. Allison confesses himself one. 1 lowever, as is custom
ary with his class, he neglected to inclose carfare so.
thouirh such a iob would be a most commendable occu
pation, the invitation is declined.
As proof of the wisdom of
received, Mr. Allison incloses
boom town of omen, showing much propertv delm
oucnt. Tlis proves nothing;
collapsed, that the owners,
hard up. It lias nothing to
prevent, payment for county supplies received and used.
Counties and communities, like individuals, cannot
afford to be dishonest and
Spitework always reacts
practice it. It is the brand
Xo one wants to settle in
its debts. Lveryone avoids
ried to extremities.
Repudiation is a spite fence built around Klamath
county that will do more to keep out needed settlers than
any amount ot advertising can bring in.
Those who practice it ought to' leave the county for
the county ,'s good.
SHOULD ENLARGE COMMISSION
npIIE law creating the state fish and game association
should bo amended so as
lrom southwestern Oregon.
Southwestern Oregon offers tho best hunting and fish
nig iu uie state. .More man
a commercial .asset. A representative to look after its
snorts on the state board is i mnerative.
No reflection is intended upon the present board,
which is composed of two Portland men, one Salemite and
two from eastern Oregon. The board has done as well as
could be expected with so much territory to look after,
the needs of a large portion of which the members are
necessarily unfamiliar with.
tlnekson county ranks next to Multnomah in number
of licenses issued, both hunting and fishing, having 3498
hunters' licenses and 2934. anglers' licenses.
Southwestern Oregon in
Jackson, Josephine, Douglas,
wij, a total ot iu,u:m licenses,
m tlio state excluding .Multnomah. This entitlos this sec
tion to representation.
The commission should be enlarged to seven members,
the new members being from southwestern Oregon and
the Pacific coast counties. This would givo even- portion
of the state representation.
Let sportsmen bear this in mind and pledge all legis
Iative candidates to work for such an amendment.

rainy season begins and stop tho dun

2. Why they allowed tho steel

heforo thoy will bo used, to catch the

::. Why thoy don't put In a filter

by giving us purer and hotter water

1. Why tho men on tho police
force don't wear their uniforms any
more? They are a very nice looking
hunch with tho exception of threo

Tho following ponton of tho couttl

1 havo Just nindo my first attempt
at fishing in an Oregon stream. I'vo

Lastly I've tried It on tho Hoguc, at
tho foot ot Table Hock Mountain, In
Oregon, t haven't rnuRht anything
to speak of yet but still havo hopes.
I do not even blush to sny that tho
most ordinary scrub has sat alonKsldo
mo in n boat and caught fish so fast
that his reel got hot whllo tho most
thnt enmo to me was n carload of
snags nnd a sunburn nose. As cap
tain ot a snagbaut It would bo hard
to find my equal no snag would es

for Its supply uould probably be shut
down for tho next three or four
thousand centuries.
Wo reached tho historic llocuc
while the sun yot lingered behind tho
dlstnnt mountain tops. There's a
thrill In tho morning air ot Southern
Oregon ns It comes to )ou laden with
tho scent of tho pines and tho myriad
flowers. There's a thrill at slKht of
tho turbulnnt stream thnt battles Its
devious nny past many a boulder thnt
strews Its pebbled floor. You c-nsa

skin fought for It nnd died for It

Icy depths.
Ton can fish as you Ilko In the
Itoguo with spoon or fly or salmon
eggs or all thrco and unless you'ro
n hoodoo to tho fishing gamo you'll
make a catch to talk about for yoara

I used to think it was something odd
In my looks that scared tho fish, or
that they folt hurt became of my dis
inclination to wade out and moot
thorn face to fnco and mingle with
them in their honu. Hut thoy had
no complaint on thnt score this tlmo.
I waded right out and steppod on n

to come In nut ot thu wet shuuld havo

thing Is n mlstory.
The (Inh worn thoio and (hero was

his fllocj and spoons around more
gracefully or goaorously. I offered
the host assortment of fisherman's
Junk on the market to every fish that

Jumped six foot In tho air to look at

tho morning till flo Iu tho evening
with guoso plmpleti as hlg us hnru
aclcs hdornliiK my submerged propel
lers and didn't eyeu catch a cold.
Wo All Know It
I was tromhlluK on tho verge of
cntchlnn: n fish on several different
occasions on my trip to tho Itoguo,
but something always happened. I
tried to look backwards once nnd
watch tho Professor laud n stcolhond
and stopped on a slippery stone and
got my logs tntmlod up In my line.
I was after a thirty-pound Chinook
thnt tlmo and If The I'rofessor hadn't
mndo so tuurh fuss out his stool-
head the snlmou and I would hao
looked like the famous trademark on
the bottle of rnd-llvor oil.
Aftor that It seemed to mo n hot
ter place to flrh, Iu n gcuteol nnd
orderly manner, would be up around
n bend of the rlvnr fur from tho mad
ding crowd. 1 had Just not nicely lo
cated and was fishing ns serenely
and quietly as If It wore the heart
ot tho Sahara Oosort -and Just nbout
as successfully when something
butted In from up the river.
It burst upon my privacy without
knocking nnd never even offered to
Introduce Itself. My first evldsnro
I ' I'rosonco In that part of tlu
he
streak was causod liy nn animated
red sweater. It had a pair of human
legs waving nrotind from tho bottom
lof It nnd a man's head sticking out
at the ton. I learned afterwards that
the object was n male human
It seems that ho honked a big snl
mou nnd it stnrtotl down the river.
Ho followed, banging to thu polo.
When thoy cnir.o to n sharp curve
In tho river bank ho thought hn could
head It off by cutting across tho el
bow of laud. lie cut across all right,
lie also cut a dido and a gash In his
scalp.
Just ns he started across tho elbow,
his lino caught In his reel nnd bclngj
busy untangling It on tho run, Iu
order to give his fish more ropo ho
failed to note an offset In tho plateau
of small, smooth rocks over which ho
was gamboling. Ho found tho offset
nil jlght. I Iu ovoit told me, aftor
wards, thnt ho had fished around
there for years and knew It was there
nil tho time.
Tho probabilities are, howovor,
that Its location Is now more firmly
Impressed upon his mind. When hn
stepped off Into It ho lundvortuiilly
loft ono of his logs up on top of It,
nt an agio of about forty-five di-Rroos.
This causod htm to go through a
