tion Of County Attorney Needham. no

OF GAME LAWS
Two Trials Will Be Heard
Before Justice Manning
Tomorrow

The trial OF o. c. Lipps, Indian agent
t Fort Lapwai. who Is custodian Of the
government sawmili on Craig noun
tain, will be conducted before Justice
of the Peace George A. Manning at 10
o'clock tomorrow, on a charge of al
lowing the sawdust from the noun
tain mill to be washed into the trout
streams.
Mr.. Lipps was arrested some time
ago and at that time a defense was
suggested ON the grounds that the
state authorities had no Jurisdiction in
this cast on account of the alleged vio-
lation of the law occurring on the gov
ernment forest reserve
Deputy Game Warden Harbaugh
has placed the matter before the at
torney general Of Idaho, who has rem
dered a decision to the effect that Mr.
Harbaugh is entirely within his rights
in prosecuting the case and has advis-
ed County Attorney Needham to give
Che game warden all assistance neces-
sary.
The case against the Lewiston Gas
company. charged with dumping re-
fuse matter in the Clearwater river
will be disposed by Justice Manning
tomorrow and 1t is understood the de-
fendant company viii enter q plea of
guilty to the charge.
Deputy Harbaugh has received num-
erous complaints against the city of
Lewiston for using the river bars for
dumping ground for refuse matter
that is carried into the rivers when
ever the waters rise above the low
stage. 1t is probable this matter will
be taken up with the city authorities
with view Of reaching some UNDER
standing by which all matter of de-
leterious character will not be allowed
to reach the streams.

Senator Hepburn was asked how q
proposition would be received by con-
gress to condemn the Clearwater river
as navigable stream for the purpose
Of improving the river for logging and
mill operations.
''Navigable rivers cannot be con-
demned," replied Mr.. Hepburn, "and
from the Information / have been able
to secure the citizens Of the upper riv-
er country are adverse to having the
river closed to navigation.
1T has been the policy Of congress
never to close a river that has been
designated as navigable stream, but
ii often seeks to improve streams so
that they may be navigated. If the
people of the upper river believe the
Clearwater acts as a governor of
freight rates, it would be unjust to
them to close the river for any par
ticular section of the state or for in
dividual interests.
Il believe, however, that if the peo-
Pile here wanted to install dam with
locks that would permit steamers or
other craft to pass or If the people at
any point desired to construct bridge
with draw which would not inter-
fere with navigation, there would be
no serious objections to such improve
ments."

but the laboring man is not attracted
by the bait. and most of the crews
are running short handed The crop
