] Representative Johnson secured the
adoption of several amendments IN
| phraseology relating to the effective
date of the law.
The section allowing county wardens,
! by authority of the state commissioner,
TO take from any stream within their
respective jurisdiction any kina of hsh
| for inspection or propagation, was
stricken out.
An amendment was offered by By
water TO allow wardens or their depu-
| ties to make searches without warrant
Of law, of the persons. premises or
vehicles of suspected violators OF the
! fish or game law, was lost by a vote of
Is noes TO 13 ayes. Another amend
1 ment by Crosby to allow trout fisher
men thirty days after December to
market their catch, was also lost.
! Then series of amendments to Sec
! ton 20 We're proposed. respecting the
restrictions on deer killing. 6ywater
wanted the limit placed at one deer per
! person a season, Cook desired the pro-
hibition complete and Robinson favor
| ed an allowance of four .deers but all
these failed of adoption.
AS passed the section permits deer
to be killed only during the month of
October of each year, but the proviso
allowing any one person to kill or have
not more than two deer in any season
! was cut out. Jackson had added to
the section a proYiso that deer, elk,
antelope and mountain sheep may be
taken alive at any time for public or
private parks for the purpose of propa-
cation.
Another amendment adopted made
the killing OF mourning doves lawful,
but the section making all fines payable
into the county treasury instead of into
the states eXcheQuer was wiped off.
| The minimum fine for violations was
changed from IS to $40
Belts proposed to make it lawful to
entrap robins as well as English spar
rows or te rob the nests of their eggs
or young, but right here Mrs. Horne
asserted her sentiments in favor of pro-
tecting the robin along with other in
sectivorous and song birds. The lady
representative declared such a PROPOSE
ton was an outrage and if adopted she
would be ashamed to confess that she
was member of the legislature which
would allow such a brutal idea to be-
come law. Needless to say, Mr..
Belts proposition was not pressed to a
vote
After striking out the clause making
the bill effective Immediately on APP
prevail instead of on the sixtieth day
after the legislature adjourns, Repre-
sentative McQuarrie got in the last
whack by having the state commits
sioner's yearly salary cut from $1,000
TO 5000.
The very much remodeled fish and
game bill was then passed by the vote
noted and sent to the senate to ponder
over.
