FAVORS ISSUANCE
 OF BONDS BY STATE
Speaker Sawyer Says Little Probabi lity of Special Session-Says He Would Resign Before Ne
 glecting Own Business.

Speaker L. E. Sawyer of the last House of Representatives does not be- lieve the governor will call an extra session of the Legislature, and added that should it be done he would re- sign before he would neglect his own interests to serve. Mr. Sawyer. in discussing the states financial dilem- ma, says that he is in favor of issuing $1,500,000 in per cent ten year bonds for the purpose of liquidating all of the states indebtedness and placing the state again on a cash basis. He would also provide sinking fund for the retirement of the bonds, and be- lieves that all of them could be paid in five years without any one feeling the strain. The pension rate of ? mills cannot be maintained at that amount many years, and that levy will in few years be turned into other channels. This is the solution MT. Sawyer offers, and he says the state must in time be brought to req lize its necessity before the present conditions can be overcome.

APPROPRIATION BILLS
 NOT YET APPROVED
Governor Signs Large Number Bills iesterday-Newberry's Measure Giving Married Women Right
 of Contract is Signed.

Little Rock, March 20.-Gov. Hays Friday afternoon signed a large num- Der of bills, most of them local. Among the bills approved is the one by Newberry giving married women the right of contract.
 Gov. Hays has not yet passed upon the appropriation bills, and is waiting until he gets all of them, so that he may have basis to work upon. It Is an assured fact that it is his pur- pose to make extensive cuts in the ap- preparations, but just where it will be made he is himself not fully decid ed as yet. It is probable that the in- stitutions will feel the ax the heaviest and it is predicted that the general bill will not be seriously cut, as it is already held down to a minimum. It will be the purpose of the Govre- nor to hold down the appropriations to within the limits of the probable revenues.
 The bills approved Friday are as follows:
 H. B. 9S (Staford) general stock law by initiative.
 H. B. 369 (Creekmore) Dean Springs and Dye Special School dis tricts in Crawford county.
 H. B. 212 (Teague) amending the Clark County stock law

Rogue River Fruit
at Exposition

Oregon Building, Panama. Pacific
Exposition, Sept. S.-There are larg-
er exhibits OF peaches and pears at
the big exposition, but none that is
more pleasing to look upon than that
in the southern Oregon booth in the
Oregon building. This is of Rogue
river fruits, of course, and Director
Frohbach has his beauties displayed
in fancy baskets that set off the fruit
and the booth to the very greatest
advantage. Great luscious peaches
are actually so large that but three
or four are required to fill basket,
and score or more of them are so
magnificent that they make an indi-
vidual display and are placed about
the booth at irregular intervals, am
ply able to get their full share of ad-
miration without the help of artistic
receptacles. One of them which
rests upon upon small scale infthe
front center Of the booth measures
but Director Frohbach refuses to
let the exact figures be used. He is
conducting a large peach contest
and proposes to give S. to the Jack
son county grower who sends in the
largest during the season. H. H.
Leavitt and A. N. Wright, both of
Medford, have two specimens extra
ordinary on display, and NJ. Van
Natta of Ashland has another. Eth

Must Have License
or be Pinched

There has been a report circulated
here and in this county that persons
who were found hunting or fishing
without a license would simply be re-
quired to pay a dollar to the game
warden, who would then furnish
them with license. State game Of
ficials were asked regarding this and
state that no such order had been
issued by the department The only
instructions given regarding hunting
without license have been that it
is against the law and that persons
found without their license would be
arrested. The game department can
not issue licenses. This is done
through the county clerks office and
those who are specially authorized by
him.
In view of this, hunters should be
careful to have their licenses with
them when hunting apd thus avoid
the possibility of arrest.

Fly Fishing Is
Said to be Fine

Grants Pass Courier The fly fish
ermen are now having the best sport
along the Rogue that the river has
afforded for five years. The steel
heads are taking either the fly or the
spinner greedily, and put up the fight
that pounds of fish energy can be
expected to put up. The trout are
fat and range from one to ten pounds
each. The reason for the improve
ment in the fishing is said by the
anglers to be the taking of many of
the salmon out of the stream. When
commercial fishing is prohibited the
river fills with spawning and dead
salmon, and the trout feed on spawn
and decaying fish.
