TWO Recommendations Made.
Two recommendations presented by
the committee on resolutions, of which
L. +. Bean, state senator from Lane
county, was chairman, were unani-
mously adopted. One was that the
Oregon and Washington delegations
in Congress be urged to use their in
fluence for a government hatchery
for the Columbia river and that this
hatchery be designed for the propaga-
ton of native western trout, as we'll
as of salmon.
The other one recommended that
the funds derived from hunters and
anglers licenses, and the net return
from fines, be used exclusively for ef-
ficient game and fish protection and
propagation: that rainbow and cut
throat trout be Matched and reared
principally and that sufficient sup
ply of eggs of these varieties be pro-
vided as soon as possible by the es-
tablishment of large breeding
stock"

The Pocket skirt Is Here.

Little by little the disparity be-
tween the habiliments of the male
and female of the species is disap-
pearing. Gradually woman is ap-
preaching the cut and fashion of
mans apparel, witnessing which fact,
among other new styles. is the pocket
skirt. There are some in Pendieton
but most of the ladies who wear
them are a little timid about putting
them to the same use as do men. But
yesterday morning a fair maid was
seen sauntering down Main street
boldly proclaiming the advent Of the
new fashion with her hands thrust in

NicNianus is Re-Indicted.

John P. McManus, veteran editor of
the Pilot Rock Record who was in
dicted at the previous session of the
grand jury only to have the indictment
quashed, was reindicted by the jury
last week, the charge being the same,
larceny of a quantity of grain valued
at $40 from Sam Barlowe. The pre-
vious indictment was quashed upon
the grounds that the name of r. r
Johnson was omitted from the list OF
witnesses examined. Mr.. Johnson, as
an attorney, testified that he had ad-
vised Mr.. McManus to remove the
barley when Mr.. Barlowe refused to.
The new indictment reads exactly as
did the old one save that the name Of
Mr.. Johnson is included among the
witnesses.
