Tax Reform Proposed at Bellingham

Advocates of tax reform in Bell
ingham are preparing petitions for
circulation in order to submit to the
electors at the forthcoming election
charter amendment providing for
the exemption of improvements
from taxation for city purposes.
Such reform is rendered possible
by the Candy Act, Chapter II, SEES
sion laws of 1911, which provides
that the form Of the organization
and the manner and mode in which
cities of the first class shall exercise
the powers, functions and duties,
which are o. may be given by law
to such cities, with respect to their
own government shall be as provid-
ed in the charters thereof" This
act provides for the adoption of the
initiative. recall and referendum and
for the submission to the electors Of
charter amendments of this or any
other character. According to the
provisions of the city charter the
single tax amendment may be sub
mitted upon petition of fifteen per
cent of the voters.

WastefuI Fishing :?

An instance of wasteful fishing
isreported by Lieut.. B. L. Brock
way, commander of the life saving
tug Snohomish. who recently in
spected the papers and equipment
Of the gasoline feet engaged off
Cape Flattery. He says that while
trolling is the common method a
large number of the vessels are
equipped with purse seines with
which they work havoc among the
salmon.
Everything is fish that comes to
the purse-seiner's net" he is quoted
as saying, "and thousands of young
salmon that would not have entered
the Strait until next year or possibly
the year after have been destroyed
this season."
He is of the opinion that the
future of the salmon packing indus
try Of Puget Sound is seriously
threatened by the operation of these
purse-seiners, but he also declares
that, "inasmuch as the fishing is
done to large extent on the high
seas, it is probable that nothing can
be done by legislation, state or
national, to remedy the conditions. -
The above from special to the P.
l. appears to be nothing less than
ridiculous to anyone familiar with
the situation. There are only eigh-
teen purse seine outfits there and
the number of young salmon taken
is very small. he future of the
salmon industry was never seriously
menaced by the seine fishing.

In vetoing the Arizona Statehood
bill President Taft used some very
strong and appropriate language in
reference to the recall feature OF
the constitution. He says:
'This provision in its application
to county and state judges seems to
me so, pernicious in its effect, SO
destructive of independence in the
judiciary, so likely to subject the
rights of the individual to the posi-
BILE tyranny of popular majority,
and, therefore, to be SO injurious to
the cause of free government must
disapprove constitution containing
it."
Much of the message was devoted
to discussion Of the functions OF
the courts under the constitution
The president dealt at considerable
length on the necessity for freeing
the judiciary as much as possible
from politics and popular influence

that to you. and if such, was report

say that some time back / have

the young bloods took to wandering
afeld supposed to be hunting the
str ay sheep and cattle and by chance
brought a deer home. That happen
ed more than once much to the an
noyance of some Of the older and
better sports and it was for that
very reason that we formed our
Game Protection Club. We got the
worst offenders to join the club. We
showed them plainly that killing
deer out Of season was criminal, and
against the wish Of right thinking
men. We have at the present time
fifty members enrolled in our club
and can truthfully say have not
heard OF a member violating his
promise to protect the deer and
birds. And | ask you in justice to
our Game Protection club to publish

game wardens. Sam Bugge who
secured that provision of the law
made monumental mistake when
he did not also include deer in that
prohibition.
G.. L. Carter and sons Cecil, Floyd
and Howard and j. w. Frits spent
two days at Cascade lake last week.
but like those fishermen of old they
"to1led all night and caught no
thing" They report that while the
fish were jumping plentifully in the
lake they were not biting at all.
A few small ones were caught in
the creek, however, so that the Buys
did not come home empty-handed.
Many Of the ranchers on Orcas is
land believe that the deer there are
personal property, and that they are
only exercising their property rights
in killing them as needed. The
deer come into their gardens and
fields and undoubtedly damage some
Of their crops. The law permits the
killing of any bird or animal caught
in the act Of injuring crops and as
no law can be enforced unless back
ed up by public sentiment, there is
little prospect for the reformation
of our neighbors on Orcas.

Sporting Notes

The Port Townsend Cubs have a
chinese pitcher who is said to be a
phenom.
Pigeon potpie is a favorite dish
of the ranchers in the valley. These
birds are quite plentiful.
The annual matches of the Seattle
Rifle and Revolver club will be held
on the Fort Lawton range on Labor
Day.
Orcas island ranchers are general
ly posting their farms with a view
of keeping off visiting hunters from
the mainland.
The second broods of chinese
pheasants are now pretty we'll grown.
These birds will be plentiful in some
localities on Orcas island.
Bellingham hunters are making
frequent trips to Flat Top and Skip
jack islands after rabbits. Large
numbers of them are killed.
The game next Sunday will be at
the Jim King grounds between the
Tigers and Richardson's. The
Richardson nine can put up a pretty
good game and will probably keep
the Tigers busy.
The Doe Bay game wardens seem
to be trifle inconsistent in their
conduct, in preventing the shipment
of live deer from Orcas island to
a park at North Yakima. They
might easily spare one Of their deer
for that purpose.
Steve Sweeney returned from q

There are many intelligent men
and women who do not APP
prove of local option but do
approve of state wide-prohibition.
1t does not seem right that the
sale of liquor should be prohibited
here, and permitted at city a few
miles away, and upon the boats ply
ing between these points. There is
no doubt that Anacortes has profited
largely from local option in the
neighboring territory. Though pro-
hibition may prevent the sale of
liquor, it does not remove the thirst
or desire for it on the part of those
who have been accustomed to it's
use. For business reasons therefore
1t is unfair to permit the sale of
liquor in one town, and prohibit it
in another.

A 'Possum Hunt.

Chas. B. Hina the jovial pur-
veyor to the people. gave to his
Sunday School class and a few
invited guests the treat of their
lives last Friday night and one
they will never forget, it being
nothing less than an old fashion
ed possum hunt. The march and
the yell was most enjoyable but
when a real live "possum" was
freed" the exuberance of the
boys knew no bounds and they
each one laughed so loud that
neighbors thought it was Jack
Tabor. One of the amusing in
cidents was when Bassett New
com who had gone along to dc
the climbing, turned loose all
hollis and came down out of the
tree. when he got close to the
possum which was so big he con.
cluded it was a coon. Bassett
had had one meeting with a coor
and came out second best and he
did not care to repeat the exper
fence and hence quietly retreat
ed posthaste. His lordship was
finally got to earth and killed.
Ellie Wick agreed to skin hin
for his meat and sell the hid,
and turn the proceeds into tn,

joyed the hunt were:-Ivan Hin;

ter c. Cole. who practiced law al

fore the war.
When he left here for Des-

of the bar, and with a reputation
throughout the state as a young
lawyer of great ability. Since
leaving here his home has been

has been one of remarkable sue.

Dean of the Law Department of
