BIOIlTS.MlL TO VltOTKST
A mass mooting of protest
against tho proposal that the
legislature chango tho present
plan of administering tho
ittnto game and fish protection
fund and against tho Smith
Iloguo river fishing bill hns
been called for next Thursday
ovoalng in tho library build
tag. It Is expected that tho
attendance will Includo dele
gates from all county towns as
well as from Medford, as feel
ing among tho hunters and
fishers Is running high against
what they term an effort to
throw gamo protection and
propagation Into politics.
Sportsmen of tho Iloguo river val
ley aro up In arms over tho legisla
tive effort to destroy tho fish and
gamo commission and mako protec
tion and propagation political spoils
' as well as tho effort to open tho en
tire Rogue river to commercial fish
ing. A mass meeting has been called
for Thursday evening at which rep
resentatives from all sportsmen's or
ganizations in tho valley aro asked
to send delegates by the Iloguo River
Fish Protcctlvo association and Med-
ford Rod and Gun clubs to be held In
tho public library at 7:30 o'clock.
Similar mass meetings will bo held
.throughout the state.
That tho sportsmen arc up against
the real thing Is shown by a letter
from H. D. Van Duzor. president of
tho State Loaguo of Sportsmens
clubs', which reads as follews:
"A plot has been mado to throw
tbo administration of tho stato fish
and game fund Into politics and. tho
huntors and fishers of tho entire
slate will fight It with all their
strength.
"I rcferr to tho movement In the
legislature to have all revenues from
fish and gamo licenses turned Into
tho general fund and making tho con
servation of fish and gamo and pro
pagation of wild llfo dependent upon
a lump sum appropriation by tho leg
islature. It has also been proposed
that tho fish and gamo commission
bo abolished and that tho fish and
gamo wardens bo appointed by the
governor.
.Means IHjr Jllow
"It would bo striking a blow from
which this stato would never recover.
Our fish and gamo resources consti
tute an asset worth at least $5,000
000 a year to Oregon, u value that
would bo practically destroyed If tho
action proposed Is taken, and, yet, on
tho other hand, a value that can be
greatly Increased from year to year,
If tho plan of administration is loft
In its present form.
"Maine values her fish and gamo
resources at $20,000,000 a year, Call
fornla at $10,000,000. Neither of
those states bus better opportunity
than Oregon to becomo famous as
a hunter's and fisherman's paradise.
Already sportsmon aro coming to Ore
gon from Now York and other eastern
cities for tho fishing on the Roguo
and McKonzle rivers, for tho hunt
ing In southern Oregon. Tlioy buy
equipment and store; they tpend
money at hotels and for transporta
tion and they constitute tho btato's
most profitable class of tourist travel.
And for our own people there Is no
bettor form of recreation, physically,
mentally and morally.
"Let this plot to throw our fish and
game resources Into politics bo suc
cessful and sco what happens.
Campaign Ourled On
"Kor several ears tho hunters and
fishers have cairlud on an education
al campaign for tho propagation of
wild )lfo and tho conservation of fish
and game. The number of licenses
taken out has Increased from about
80,000 four jcara ngo to approximate
ly 130,000 for 1914. Many of theso
licenses weto taken put and tho fees
paid by men whoso only motive was to
aid tho educational campaign there
by, I do not bellovo under the po
litical plan proposed enough HceiiBea
would bo taken out to equal the ap
propriation tho legislature would
make,
"Not only that, but the hunters and
fishers would loso that sense of re
sponsibility for propagating and con
serving tho state's fish and gamo re
wurctji that t'10)' now lmv
A WINDMILL USED BY A FRENCH OUTPOST FOR OBSERVATION PURPOSES
One of the most arduous duties which ftilli to the ot of the soldier Is. perhaps, that Of outpost work, tho spe
cial functions of which are to gather Information concerning the enemy's movement. In ijrder to nlitnln'lhls In for
mation nearly every device U tried. One such method Is rliown nltovu I'lidor certain eondltlojii a windmill offers
a good point of vantage for an observer wLo stands on tbo axle, lining hi body up ngnlnxt the arm of tbo sail.
"The hunters and fishers of Ore
gon want every cent of the fund de
rived from licenses to be applied to
tho work of propagating wild life and
conserving the game and fish. This
work should not be borno by general
tax but by thoso who fish and hunt
and they aro more than willing to do
It. It should bo a special purposo
fund paid by a special clais to pro
moto a special stato asset.
How Fund Is ItAiMtl
"Tho political plotters would have
tho pcoplo and the members of the
legislature bel(cvo that tho fund Is
spent by tho fish and gamo commis
sion without ghlng any account to the
stato. Nothing could be further from
tho truth.
"Tho game protection fund Is upon
tho same basis as other ttnto funds.
Tho license money Is collected by tho
county clerks and paid direct to the
stato treasurer. Not one dollar is
spent by the fish and gnmo commis
sion direct. It can only be spent on
