Deputy Game and Fish Warden Joe
Nolf returned last night from Grand
Ronde Valley where he has been the
pas, few days investigating the alleg-
ed violations of the fish law.
He travelled Is miles along Gather
inc creek, the most magnificent trout
stream i'm eastern oregon and found
that almost the entire run of trout
for this spring had been prevented
from ascending the stream because of
the absence of fish ladders, screens
or any other apparatus required by
law. Fine trout were found lying
everywhere i'm the irrigation bitches.
and dams with no ladders were
found in great numbers and he de-
clares there is the most flagrant vio-
lations of the fish law along Gather
Inc creek, of any place in his terri
tory.
He will Immediately begin prosecu-
tions against several large land and
mill owners if they do not at once
comply with the fish laws. He served
notice upon several law violators and
expects to return again to Union, to
see that the law is fully complied
with.
Catherine creek is known far and
wide as a trout stream, but this year
very little fishing has been done, be-
cause of the failure of the trout to
reach the fishing grounds in the
mountains above Union

THE LAWS LONG DELAY.
TucanOn Man Holds Homestead 49,
Years Without a Title.

The testimony in the land contest
case entitled State of Washington vs..
Bert Curl, for tract of land in the
Tukanon country in Columbia coun-
~, was heard at the local office yes-
terday, says the Walla Walla Union.
Mr. Curl settled on the piece of
land in question more than 16 years
ago, before the land was surveyed,
and has lived on it ever since. In the
fall of 1904 all the land in that part
of the Columbia county was surveyed
and the public lands were thrown
open to entry. At that time Mr.. Curl
offered to file homestead entry on the
land but the state protested his taxi
ing any part of section 16, claiming
il was school land and not subject to
entry.
The hearing at the land office yes
terday was to determine whether Mr..
Curl or the state of Washington was
entitled to the land. Mr.. Curl ap-
peared with five or six witnesses to
establish his CLAIM, while the state,
having no Witnesses, appeared by f.
c. Mcdonald and D. F. Kizer, from
the attorney generals off,ce at Olym.
pia, who oss-examined the witt
nesses for the contestee.
The local office has not yet rem
dered a decision.

a great benefit for Nampa, in the
way Of furnishing cheap motive pow

will insure an all day and all night
current at prices that will induce man
ufacturers to locate here. It means
a reduction of the cost of power of
as per cent as compared with steam.
