FISH DESTROYED
BY THOUSANDS
YOUNG TROUT THROWN OUT TO
DIE IN FIELDS BY WATER USED
FROM IRRIGATING DITCHES-
MANY PICKED UP IN THE
COUNTY ROAD.

Monday afternoon Thos. Wood
brought into this office several fish
which he had picked up in the road
near the Hartery ranch. Now in the
ordinary course of things fish don't
usually choose to travel in the coun-
ty roads, and these fish got there by
reason of a most extraordinary state
of things. There are no screens
placed over the intakes of the gov
ernment irrigation bitches and the
fish enter the main irrigating canal
and are distributed into the laterals
and washed out over the fields.
Those picked up by Mr.. Wood were
stranded in the road where the irri-
eating water had spread across the
road from the fields.
Up in klamath Falls the water
coming from the old Ankeny canal
is spreading young trout over the
city gardens thick enough to make
good fertilizer, and throughout the
county the main ditch is carrying ip-
to the grain fields and alfalfa fields
to their final resting place millions
of this splendid game fish. If the
reclamation service officials had
done nothing else to awaken the ire
of klamath county people, the alb
sence of fish screens and this whole
sale sacrifice of one of the cou tvs
chief attractions to sportsmen' is
enough to bring down on their heads
the just condemnation of our people,
Oregon annually spends large
sum to protect her game fish, and
citizens take out license for the
privilege Of catching fish in the
streams. In the face of this awful
destruction of young trout through
| the carelessness and indifference of
government officials the state should
take some steps to curb the opera
tions of the reclamation bureau from
! taking fish along with the water
used from lakes and rivers inNwhich
they are propagated and protected
at state expense.-Merrill Record.

A Dainty Toilet Article.

Every lady who desires to keep up
her attractive appearance, while at
the theatre, attending receptions,
when shopping, while travelling and
on all occasions should carry in her
purse booklet of GOuraud's Orien-
tai Beauty Leaves. This is a dainty
little booklet of exquisitely perfumed
powdered leaves which are easily
removed and applied to the skin. 1t
is invaluable when the face becomes
moist and flushed and is far superior
to a powder puff as it does not spill
and soil the clothes.
1t removes dirt, SCOT and grease
from the face, imparting a cool, de-

FOREST
RESERVES
INVESTIGATED

President Hill of the Great Nor
thern sends the Salem Board OF
Trade a copy of the senate resolu-
tion providing a special committee to
Investigate the amount of land in
the forest reserves that is suitable
for agricultural purposes, with a
view to making it available for set
tlement. This is a matter of the
greatest Importance to the develop
ment of this state, and will be a
good thing for Oregon in the opinion
of Mr.. Hill. The resolution is as
follows:
Resolution.
Resolved, That there shall be ap-
pointed by the President of the Sen
ate a select committee of FIVE Sena-
tors, with authority to sit during the
session of the Senate or during the
recess of Congress, eithers as a com
mittee or by a subcommittee, with
instructions to make an exhaustive

in forest reservations with a view OF
ascertaining how much and what
part can be restored to the use of
the people under the present laws.
"The committee is hereby author
lied for the purpose of securing this
information to hold such hearings
as may be necessary; to have such
printing and binding done as may
benecessary; to employ a steno-
grapher and other clerical assist
ance; and that the expenses to carry
out the provisions of this resolution
shall be paid from the contingent
fund of the Senate"

MEAT PROBE GOING DEEP
BOSTON DEALERS WARNED.
Affairs of Is Meat Firms Laid Before Grand
Jury at Chicago===Investigation to Be
Standardization Will Have 2-Weeks
Meat Strike===Dealers Worried.
ROSTONIANS AROUSED.

Boston, Jan. 26.-"Since you inform
Us that the present high prices of the
necessities of life are due to the in
evitable law which governors supply
and demand, we will say to you as a
representative committee of the citi-
zens of Boston that he will attempt
to secure relief by lessenng the de-
mand. and shall call upon the citizens
of Boston to abstain from the use Of
meat for two weeks"
Such was the ultimatum given the
wholesale producers late today at the
conclusion of a conference between
them and a committee appointed at a
citizens mass meeting in Faneuil Hall
last Saturday night at which the pres
ent high prices of food stuffs was con-
demned.
According to the report Of the meet
ing given out by member Of the cit
liens committee at it's close, the pro-
duce men saw nothing unusual to
cause the high prices beyond the de-
crease in the supply and an increas-
ing demand.
On being asked direct question as to
the conduct of the wholesale meat
trade in Boston and the use of cold
storage plants, the wholesalers re-
fused to answer unless the committee
went into executive session and would
agree not to give out names of those
questioned at the close.

Panama Libel Indictment
Is Finally Quashed.
Government Case Against New
York World Dismissed.
The Court DiscIaims Jurisdiction.
Other Reasons Later.

New York, Jan. 26.-The indictment
against the Press Publishing Co. pub
fishers of the New York World, charg-
ing Joseph Pulitzer and others with
criminal libel against Theodore RoOSe
Welt, President Taft and others was
quashed today in the United States
district court. Judge Hough ruled that
the statute upon which the indictment
rested was not sufficient in authority
or in other words that the court had
no jurisdiction.
Delaney Nicoll counsel for the de-
PENDANTS interpreted the decision as
signal victory for the freedom of the
press.
The curious and ingenious mind,
he said that brought to life after 50
years the law under which the prose-
cution was begun has retired to priv
ate life, but has left this legacy be-
hind it.
This is not a prosecution brought
by aggrieved or injured private in
dividuais; 1t was begun by the Presi-
dent of the United States in an at
tempt to show that libel had been
committed upon the American people"
Judge Hough. in rendering his deci-
sion. said in part:
1T is charged here that the crime of
sending libelous matter through the
mails is punishable at the place Of
destination of the libelous matter. If
any crime has been committed it is to
be regarded rather as an offence
against the state of New York, which
happened to be committed on govern
ment land. at West Point. than an Of
fence against the government under
the statute.
THE burden Of proof rests upon the
prosecution to show that it was the
intent of Congress to entrust to tn:
courts of the United States the pun
ishmen of offences other than those
primarily committed on United States
territory"
Among lawyers the opinion was gem
eral that today's collapse of the gov
ernment's case marks an end of fur
Their prosecution. If any future action
| is to be taken said Henry A. Wise,
United States district attorney, "it
rests with the attorney general of the

CLAWS, Whom President Discharged for |nsubor-

Thoroughly Probe the Alaska Claims,
Is Asserted by Attorney Brandeis.

Washington. Jan. 26.-The Ballinger-
PinchCt congressional committee of
inquiry began its public sessions today
with Louis r. CLAWS, the CHEW accus-
or of Secretary Ballinger on the wit
ness stand. Although the witness did
not get very far in his narrative, there
was opportunity, however, to draw
some preliminary conclusion as to the
division of the committee. Special
counsel for CLAWS summed up the
cease for the prosecution" in this
way
"That prior to entering the govern
ment service in any capacity, r. A.
Rallinger acted as attorney in draw
ing up an agreement in escrow and
deeds in the Wilson Coal co. cases in
Lewis county Washington, these cases
being an alleged fraud upon the land
laws. Mr.. Balinger's name did not
appear in the court records of the

THAT Mr.. BallinGer, as commission
or of the land office in 1907, did not
show due diligence in investigating the
alleged frauds connected with the Cum

so that he had knowledge of all the
circumstances that surrounded these
claims and in spite Of this entered the

coming secretary of the interior; that

ed tirelessly.
Nevertheless Premier BRAND and the
other ministers. who had not left their
posts for AS hours, were unable to re-
spond to the appeals for help coming
from every direction. Provincial au-
thorities received general instructions
to act on their own initiative without
awaiting orders from the central gov
eminent
The situation in Paris was not
changed appreciably from yesterday,
except that more streets had been con-
verted into yellow canals: more dis
tricts evacuated; a few more pave
ments had caved in, and traffic COM
munication was more completely para
lyzed. One of the greatest causes for
alarm continued to be the constant
rise of the subterranean streams under
the center of Paris, which flooded cell
lars, undermining the foundations of
the buildings. Whole streets have
been roped off as unsafe. All Of the
bridges over the Seine are still stand
ing. but traffic over more than half of
them has been closed. The report Of
yesterday that a steamer had broken
from it's moorings and crashed against
the Pont DAlma was incorrect. Such
an accident would make 1t necessary
instantly to destroy the bridge with
explosives. The refuse of the city,
which was carried off formerly In
barges is now being dumped into the
Seine.
Another serious phase of the situa-
ton is that Paris is becoming rapidly

way to Paris. Extensive floods have
occurred in Gironde.

Paris, Jan. 26.-The flood situation
grows worse hourly. AT Pont Royal
this morning the raging torrent of the
Seine had reached height of q feet,
s inches, above low water mark and
was rising at the rate of nearly an
inch an hour, against an hourly rise
of less than half an inch yesterday.
Although the River Marine was re-
ported stationary at Fretesous, to the
east of Paris, the Fluvial navigation
department declares that the volume
of water rushing down from the Yonne
and other afliuents of the Seine above
leaves no hope that the high water
mark will be reached before tomor-
row morning. when the flood is eX-
pected to reach a maximum of 81 feet,
or height greater than was reached
by the disastrous flood in 1902.
At the same time the department
admits confidentially that it is i'm
possible to predict anything with ac-
curacy. as the whole of France is still
in the grip of an unprecedented storm.
Rain, snow, and hail are falling every
where: the coasts are stormbound, the
ships are fleeing to the harbors for
refuge. A binding snowstorm ragged
in Paris today and. coupled with the
bitter cold, added to the general mis-
cry of the poor and homeless.
In the face of a national disaster
France is giving fine exhibition Of
pluck and solidarity. Political di-
visions have been buried and the gov
eminent and people united to solve
the problem of relief. Those in au-
thority are devoting themselves solely
to the work of rescue and of providing
shelter and food for the homeless.
