MIGRATORY BIRD
HUNTING IN CALIF.
WILL BE PERMITTED
HportMiirn to lie Altuweil to Bring
Tlirlr (iiitne Aero HUle Mae,
State Witrtlcn Kay
Klamath county sportsmen will bo
permitted to hunt migratory birds In
California this year and bring their
gamo home, according to Information
received from V. St. Newbcrt, presi
dent of the fish and gamo commis
sion of California, In a letter to A. E.
Ilurghduff. state game warden of
j Oregon, who hn been here several
, days.
Several weeks ago. at the request
of local sportsmen, tho chamber of
comerco took the matter up with
! Ilurghduff and asked him In turn, to
tako Iho matter up with the Califor
nia commUslon. This resulted In a
statement from Newbcrt. part of
which follews:
"Tho California law prohibits the
exportation of ducks, geese or other
water fowl out of .the state, but since
tho Migratory niril Treaty act regu
latlnns permit Iho shipment of water
fowl cut or tho state, we nave not
forced this expert law; provided tho
California license law nnd limit were
obeyed."
According to this statement, local
sportsmen will be permitted to bring
their geexo and ducks across tho Cal
ifornia lino, but will not bo permitted
to bring deer across tho lino, and In
formation has been given out that
CI a mo Warden Courtrlght Is permu
ted to cross the line and make ar
rests in tho state of Oregon.
This Information has been received
with very much appreciation by local
sportsmen, and Tulc Lake doubtless
will 6o tho scene of much activity
when tho bird season opens.

"Wo have the grit and graco as

Scandal In Bird Colony
Mr. Pelican Is SuWjact
YELLOWSTONE PARK, Wjro..
Aug. 31.4rekeitement Is rlfa In tfca
wild qnlmal community of tho park
since 'the 'scandal about Mr.. Pollcan
received public attention.- Tho duck
are quacking about It,' tho squirrels
aro chattering ll and tho bob-cats
arc scattering It broadcast In their
shrill voices.
Throughout all tho whispers and
nudges of neighbors as ho passes, Mr.
Pelican maintains hU stately nlcn.
seemingly unconscious of tho Jibes of
tho multitude. Ills actions would
indicate ho still hotds his valued
placo In the community.
His trouble started with the charge
of Prof. Henry B. Ward, head ot thB
department! of soology ot the Univer
sity of Illinois, that he Ii a trout
"hog" and violator of all the tenets
of good sportsmanship. Proof ot
these charges probably will mean
that Mr. Pelican will become nn out
cast with every one'a door closed to t
him and everyone's hand against Tilin.
Professor Ward Is conducting an
exhaustive Investigation for the fed
eral bureau ot fisheries at Lake Vol
laws'tone In Yellowstone National
park as to the relationship between
the pelican and the trout supply. Ills
investigation, which baa been pro
gressing several weeks, wilt continue
through the present season.
The flock ot pelicans that live an I
breed on Lake Yellowstono number
about 400. They "summer" aristo
cratically at the lako, feasting on the
best tho land affords from sprlnu un
til September, then go to their Win
er resorts along the Gulf of Motlco.
The bird diets almost exclusively,
on fish, and, so far as the Yellow
stone and other Rocky Mountoln
lakes and streams are concerned, tbU
means exclusively on trout. Ho t
tlmates that the 400 peltcana een
sumomore trout than are taken.ilur
Ing an entire season by aportsaen.
The pelican Is no respecter of site
limits or open seasons, Protestor
Ward charges. He declared he bad
seon a platoon of 30 peltcana raage4
across a stream In regular formation,
preying on the trout aa they iwaa JIP
to apawn. Hitherto, the stream htd
ylolded trout eggs by the mllllonifbR
hatchery men this yoar could gathar
only a fraction of the norma amount.
The fact is granted that Mr. Pell
can's homo life la above reproach, Ho
Is a good provider, a good huikand
and father and 1 strictly raof
mous. For the 400 birds Is the Lake
Flock, there are Just 200 iMta; Mt
for, each couple and ose mato fir
each bird. Thero are so "4rIaM'V
In tho Yellowstone ''400." .1
