GAME HOG HAD
HARDER WORK
UNDER THE ADMINISTRATION OF
ROOSEVELT PROTECTION
WAS GIVEN BIRDS.
Reserves Were Created in All Parts of
the United States for Protection
of Small Animals.

WASHINGTON, D. c., May 7-While
2x-President Roosevelt is engaged in
shooting up" Africa, he may, between
times, reflect contentedly on the fact
that during his seven years admins
trat-on he made the operations of the
American game-hog increasingly diff
fcult The big stick was against the
game-hOgs, and against the CONNER
cial hunter of birds for millinery.
1t was with the latter idea in mind
that during his occupancy of the White
House, Col. Roosevelt created 25 eser-
vat.ons for the protection of native
birds. Seventeen of these embrace the
reservoir sites already reserved by the
United States reclamation service, one
in Arizona, one in California, two in
Idaho, one in Montana, two in New
Mexico, one in oregon, one in South
Dakota, one in Utah, five in ashing-
tOn and two in Wyoming.
The reclamation service was in
hearty sympathy with President Roose-
Velts efforts to prevent the killing,
for commercial purposes, of the birds
which now nest annually upon the
islets and shore lines of these reserva-
tons or which will probably nest there
n the near future. Game Wardens will
soon be placed in charge of these bird

IN SEVERAL EVENTS.
Spokane Places Twenty-Five Men Ir
Finals, With WaIla WaEa Second
and Lewiston Third.

With some of the crack athletes Of
the Inland Empire on the grounds, the
ninth annual tri-state interscholastic
track meet was pulled off under fav
orable circumstances yesterday Oh
Anleny field before a crowd of over
1000 people and though some good
records were made, they would have
been better had not the wind been so
strong and the temperature so low.
The events were pulled off in rapid sue
cession without a hitch and from the
first shot Of the pistol at o'clock un-
til $50 o'clock, Dorsey Hill and his
efficient corps of helpers kept the ath
letics in perpetual motion not allow
ing the large audience a moment of
suspense.
Many of the schools succeeded in
qualifying nearly every man in his
event, and quite a number of men
made good for several. Spokane,

Judging from the preliminary races,
the race for the individual loving cup
offered by Senator Ankeny to the ath-
lete winning the mos Joints in the
finals will be between Englehorn of
Spokane, Shaw of Lewiston, Dresser
Vt Walla Walla, Cooke of Ellensburg
and Kimban of Pendleton. These five
men are easily head and shoulders
above their team mates in the num-
Der of events they will enter, and as
each is possible first they stand the
best chances of having their names
inscribed on the silver cup.
The relay yesterday was run in slow
time. Neither of the team winning
first was very closely pressed and did
not have to do their best. Lewiston,
Spokane, Prosser and Walla Walla
made time varying all the way from
1:SS to 1:44 in the half mile relay.

grounds by japanese sailors, who killed
the birds by the shipload and for
warded them to Europe via Asiatic
ports for millinery manufacturers. Col.
Roosevelt heard that certain American
citizens in the island proposed to as
sist the Japanese to continue this
slaughter of the innocents, and prompt
ly put the territory into the ''protec-
ton schedules" as it might be called in
these days of Tariff discussion.
The closing days of the Roosevelt
administration were also marked by
the creation of a new form of reserva-
ton. Fire Island, locatsd near the
head of Cooks Inlet, Alaska, is a we'll
known resort for the cows of the
Alaska moose the largest known rep
resentative of the moose family. The
young born on the Islands were, wnen
old enough to protect themselves from
the attack of wolves, led back to the
main shore by their wise parents. or
late, hunters had begun to invade the
island and kill off the young moose. Ii
mas to prevent this slaughter that Mr..
Roosevelt proclaimed the island "a res
ervation for the protection of native
animals" 1t is the only reserve OF rs
kind in the country.

Workshop for Blind Saved.

BY reporting out favorably the bill
carrying an appropriation of s45,o00 for
the Colorado workshop for the blind.
the Senate committee on finance prac-
tically saved the existence of that in
stitution. With favorable committee
report the bill is expected to pass cas-
lily now, and it will be given home of
its own. Had the bill been delayed IN
til after March 1st the institution
would have gone out of existence, as
under the law, no institution can bor-
row money for maintenance after
March 1st of the year following the ex-
piration Of the preceding biennial per-
iod. The blind workshop has been rum
ming into debt since last October
The provisions of the bill are that a
workshop shall be built by the state to
cost 100000. a home for the blind work
ers, to cost $4,000 and $4,000 shall
be appropriated for maintenance.

No Guardianship for Veterans.

In the Senate Senator Campbeli's
hill, repeating Colorado statutes which
require that all old soldiers and sailors
entering the Soldiers and Sailors
Home shall turn over their pensions to
the commandant. was passed TO third
reading. The United States laws re-
quire that pensioners of the govern
ment shall not turn their money over
to anyone, but shall keep it themselves.
Senator Bohn, an old soldier, said it
was an outrage to make the command
ant guardian OF the old soldiers. be-
sides being a violation Of the constitu-
ton. THE custom arose because it
was feared that the old soldiers would
go into town pension day and get
drunk" said Senator Bohn. We'll. if
they want to get drunk let them. They
have right to do SO. They fought for
the country and have a right to any
pleasure they may get out of their pen
sions. 1t is nobody's business" 1t was
stated that as much as $4,000 passes
through the commandant's hands from
this source alone every year.

No Pay for Lobbyists.

No more will the state pay lobbyists
for their efforts to secure more money
from the states Golfers for the hundred
and one purposes mentioned in the ap-
preparation bills and budgets. This de-
olson has been made by Gov. John Sha-
froth. who recently announced that he
would refuse to affix his signature to
any appropriation bill not having pro-
vision to that effect embodied in it
He has suggested the following for
NAL phrase as fitting clause for that
purpose None of the moneys here
in appropriated shall be used to pay
any officer or any member OF any
board or any other person for lobby
ing for or against any appropriation.
For many years past it has been the
custom, says the governor, for Off
GERS of state institutions or for mem
bers of state boards or departments 10
have their expenses paid out of appro-
priations for their efforts toward in
ducing members of the Legislature to
vote for larger appropriations with
which to conduct the various branches
Of the state work.
This practice" said Governor Sha-
froth, means that the state is pay
iDS money to enable some depart
,nent to take more money away from
it, 1t is entirely wrong for a state in
stitution, board OF department TO pay
men and so to additional expense for
the purpose OF getting more money
out of the state. This money paid
lobbyists for that purpose is really il
legally expended according to the spir-
it, if not the letter, of the appropriation
bills. If one institution should do this
and nothing is said, there is no rea-
son why all the twenty-seven boards
in the state could not do it. 1t must
stop"
Governor Shafroth said that his pur-
pose in giving publicity TO this deter
mination is to warn the lobbyists al
ready at the state house in behalf of
the state institutions that they will
not be paid out of the states appropri-
ations for the support of the state
boards and institutions if he can pre-
vent it,

Attacks Work Of Land Board.

Alleging gross mismanagement Of
the various state land boards in the
administration of public lands during
the last twenty years, Speaker Lubers
created a furore at the Tuesday night
session of the House. The speaker
took the floor in committee of the
whole on Representative Clark's bill
to admit school lands to irrigation dis
tricts, not for the purpose of opposing
or supporting the measure, but to air
his personal views on the work OF the
land office.
Without going into specific circum-
stances he characterized the admins
tration of the office during the last
twenty years as blot on the history
of the state. 1t speculated and did not
put the lands to the best uses, he as
serted, and the state had suffered
greatly in consequence of the dog
the-manger policy. Under proper ad-
ministration he declared the land office
could be OF great assistance in the de-
velopment Of the state.
The Clark bill was passed to third
reading.
