WASHINGTON' Jan.' 11 The ap pointment of General 'Miles "as secretary-general -of the state of Massachu setts overshadowed all other questions in tie discussion of the arm appropria- t ion bill" in the House today. The de hate ' proceeded ' leisurely ; until Hull, -in charge of the bill, offered an amend. ment providing that the retired officers! above The grade of major should sot feeeive the full pay of thir grade when assigned to duty with the militia . of the e vera! states. Several member " declared thaf Kie amendment w)i di rected especially at Miles, but Hull in sisted he had no suea thought and ar gued that the oest results were obtained from the officers of lower grades. V. He asserted that not until the las had passed allowing increased pay for the 'officers .assigned to the militia adid the retired officers of higher grades 'ap pty for appointments. lie said that the " increased pay and ' not patriotism prompted them and he Characterized the conduct as unseemly. This statement aroused Coekran, -of New York, who de clared that it was simply penalizing superiors to the advantage-and profit of ?inferi officers. The measure was 'adopted. - - -Several of toe members severely erit- icised the army and navy expenses, and 3d. Prince called! attention to the -irge retired list, which included 236 brigadier-generals, who, he said, could wot have been constituted by tho operation of the law, but disclaimed any inten tion of charging. mal-administration of law. The consideration "of the army bill was not concluded when tho House od . journed. , The attention of the Senate today -was divided by the statehood question and the governmental regulation of railroads. Xewlands made a formal speech on the railroad subject and at it's close, engaged in; a spirited contro versy over the points involved with Hpooner, Foraker and others. All the t to tho statehood bill ex cept that relating to the liquor traffic ( in the Indian Territory were agrcou io. ' SmOot Investigation. Washington, .an. 11. Testimony in- - tended, to prove that the Mormon morale , i of the highest type and torefute the word of other witnesses who declared to, the contrary, was offered bv the counsel of Senator Smoot todav. W. J. .McConnell. formerly United States Sen ator and twice Governor of Idaho, and Representative Burton L. French n member of the present Congress, and who was re-elected for another term, were the day 'a witnesses. Both of the witnesses today denied many statements directed against tho Mormon "church, McConnell said that " the .Gentile1 members of the Idaho Le ' - istatore were not as high in morals as tho. Mormon members, and that if it were-not for the question of geography and-their knowledge -of the legislative needs that. the . interests of the state ' would be . served by an entire Mormon Legislature. 1 ' House Against Bevision. Washington, 'Janf ; 11. - A prominent member of the House said to-t be As- aoclated Press today that the poll which the leaders of the House had conducted on the question of tariff revision show ed that '.O . per cent of the members apnroached. were against revision. AH the leader of tho House .except Payne, chairman of the wars and means com mit tee, who is laid up with rheuma- -tism,-and Tawney, are against the re vision. The work of crystallising the sentiment against tho revision is being done bv DalSell and Grosvenor, and it is stated that practically all the. Repub lican members from the states of Pettu . aylvania. Ohio. New York. New Jersey and. West Virginia are rainst revision. The Pacific coast delegation was un- Vable to get together todav. Friends of the revision seem to be taking no 1 tlve interest in advancing their ideas, but, claim to have many , members of the various delegations on their side. WOULD BLOW UP STATUE.

PROTECT GAME MANY PEOPOSITIONS ABS UNDEB CON8XDEBATTON FOB PB. 8EBVDTO WILD FOWL. Oregon's Magnificent r Mongolian Pheasants and the Many Varieties of Wild Dock Are Disappearing Except i Where Latter Is Baited in Preserves. f ... r.. - . The matter of changing the . game laws is a question that- is attracting eonsidcrble attention throughout the state. From the present indications, it seems that the statute will be amend ed and the game throughout the state will receive more, strrct and rigiJ pro tection. ' . : The Portland papers' are . devoting considerable space .to this subject and the general trend of their articles i to the effect that the Portland sports men are much opposed, to any drastic measures on the part of tho Legisla ture to further the protection of the game, partieularlywild fowl. : In almost every direction in the vicinity ,of Portland will be 'found ponds leased as private preserves. The ducks and other wild fowl that fre quent these pouds, are fed regularly throughout the week and hunted on Sundays. It is claimed that the baited ponds draw the ducks from all over thv state and consequently causes a scarc ity except' in the vicinity of Portland and other places where there "are pre serves. The local sportsmen have interested themselves in the matter and . while they di not want to derive the Port land hunters of their pleasure, they would like to see a law passed prohib iting t3e baiting of ponds, '"which,, they sar, would be only in justice to the peo ple in. general. j Only a lew rears back wild fowl were very plentiful on the ponds sur rounding Salem. Now" there are but few. This may be due to ' natural causes, but every year witnesses ' the baiting of .additional ponds on the Co lumbia Viver and th growing scarcity of ducks in thl vicinity! . The Port land hunters claim that there is aji un pre.cedenfed large number of birds on the' coast and that the gradual disap pearance of them inland is due to carp, which destroy the seeds and weeds on which ducks subsist. They also say t"iat the rapid development of 'the coun try and the draining of swamps to be used for farming purposes have caused the birds to seek other quarters, and that if they should cease baiting they als would suffer , a scarcity. The Chinese pheasants are becoming scarcer, and among the remedies sug gested is the prohibition of the use of dogs in pursuit of them. Another is to stop the sale. It is proposed to cut the limit of 50 ducks a day down to 23, and to stop the sale. ' ' , The proposed discontinuance of the sale of wild game, has met with con siderable opposition, as there are many people who do noC enjoy shooting,; but who are particularly fond of wild game as an eatable.- J-i ' ' Although as a (general ' rule ; private preserves entail a vgreat amount of ex penditure, a number of Portland men of" only moderate circumstances are en abled to belong to shooting , clubs through the saTe of the birds they kill, which bring a ready market. So many plans and remedies have been suggest ed thai the resmlt is simply a case of conjecture. . .Congratulations. , Mr.! John n. Cullom, editor of, thw Garland, Texas, Kews, has written a letter of congratulations to the manu factures of Chamberlain's Couga Rem edy, as follows: "Sixteen years ago when our first child was a baby he was subject to eroupy spells and we would lie very uneasy about him.

He said in part: . 'The finances of the .state are' In a healthy condition. " For . the biennial term ending September 30, " 1902, the ttate indebtedness was reduced $131, J22.34, and for the biennial term .end- ng September 30, 1904, $122,610.86, making a total reduction during tho four years of $253,833.20. The reduc tion is largely due -to the fact that" in teveral instances, it has been found not necessary to expend the entire amounts ippropriateda't the last session. . ' New Irrigation Code Needed. "A swbject of Very great importance toTITe state is that of irrigation... I understand- this state has contributed in the neighborhood of $3,500,000 tP uhe ' Bee lamat ion Fund.' It is certain-, y of the utmost, importance p the state that this money. -aaoldeependd in the; state., jWhethert-tJfm faj or will be( kae seems to. hrnge fispfip the ex I istence - of feasible irrigation projects, tnd, second, upon WhefWr our laws'are iuch that- those io charge-, of . the re-! slanvation servicb woulddeem it feas-' ible to attempt to carrytiftt snch irri gation nroiects'as maeTWTP9ible from! . in'- engineering- -BtarfdnufXo one : doubts the, existence-;rersble irriga tion 'projects in' t'heLatatefT8m 'an en gineering standpoint, and it seems equally clear, that. our laws are nbt such 4 to warrant : those in charge of the reclamation service in undertaking to carry out, such projects. Therefore, in the final analysis, the question whether the money; contributed by this state to the Reclamation Fun' is to,be expend ed in this state depends upon the uctim of this Legislature. This in my opinion is one of the most important subjects which you will be called upon to con sider. Some time ago it was suggested to me by officials of the United States reclamation service -that finder our laws, as they now are, it would not bo feas ible to undertake any irrigation project in this state. t " -r.--.:;t .-.;.-..-,.. The McBride Hobby. . --ij . "I feel like congratulating Ihc'pcopl of the state upon the fact that wentl ment is now almost unanimous in favor of the passage of a railway commission USL Many who have been bitterly op posed, to it in the past now seem to be clamoring for the enactment of much a measure. Theirsincerity will be put to the test during this session. A com mission bill that is a commission bill in -name only, instead of quieting, would serve to increase the agitation, that has been carried on in this state upon this question. What ia needed is a regula tive, appointive railway commission clothed with ample power to remedy existing abuse. Any, other kind of a commission, . in my . judgment, would prove to be worse thari useless. I trust the wisdom of taia LegTslature may be sufficient to settle this question proper ly, for, in roy judgment,; it will never be settled in this state until it is set tied right." ; - ; . Meads Inaugurated. Governor ,MadeV appearance was greeted by a- general clapping of hands. Many points of the message, including the i reference, to the railway commis sion bill, were applauded The inaugural ceremonies were brief. The simple oath of office was adminis tered by Chief Justice Mount. ; After adjournment of the joint ses sion both houses "reconvened. In the Senate Lieutenant-Governor Coon was presented to the members as presiding officer. The ; House reconvened . long enough to pass the bill adopted by the Senate at the morning session provid ing, for the expenses of the Legislature. ; ' J -V , Bills Introduced. - t-,::;r Olympia.
