SALEM. Ore. Feb. 1s.-Dr. II. S.
Garfield OF Pendleton. who Is await
ing second trial for an alleged vi.
olation OF the game law. is being
doomed by certain members OF the
Umatilla county legislative delegation
for a place on tue state board OF fish
and game commissioners. The lead
ers in this unique move which would
place Doctor Garfield In the position
OF being his own Judge and jury are
Representative ]. +. Hinkle, Jointly
accused with Garfield, and Senator
j. N. Burgess.
Senator Burgess. who has devoted
the greater part Cf his time and en-
ergy during the present session I'm an
effort TO secure tile abolIshment or
the present commission and the In
stallation OF his private secretary, w.
c +. Pruitt. as deputy warden for
the Pendleton district, made hur
riec trip to Pendle.on Sunday. His
return TO Salem was accompanied by
a number OF messages and letters in
behalf OF DR. Gartield's candidacy.
However. II is not believed here that
any OF the endorsements came from
the sportsmen end Il is understood
that the appointment OF DR.. Garfield
would not meet WITH the approval OF
the sportsmen or even OF the rank
and file OF the republican party in
Umatilla county.
An interesting feature OF the game
fisht is the fact ihot those who are
seeking TO create new offices in the
guise OF economy are also seeking to
dictate the appointment OF the men
who are 10 fill these offices and are
seeking 20 tie the hands OF the gov
erior even before the offices are
created. House bill No. 47S which
creates new commission. was be-
ing allowed TO lie quietly In COM
mittee. Representative Hinkle had
been unable by his own efforts to res
urrect the measure and It was only
through the united effort OF himself
and Senator Burgess that the bill was
rescued last night and rushed
the house. They expect TO
put II through the senate in the same
today.
