STATE HOUSE
meeting Gil, Friday July $50 A. M
Standard
Mat. 215-25e

Deputy Attorney General William
II. Fisher of Augusta has just drawn
an opinion in regard to the rights Of
citizens of New Brunswick to fish in
the waters of the st. Croix and st.
John rivers and the application Of the
Maine law providing for a non-resi-
dent fishing license to them, the point
having been raised by Commissioner
of Inland Fisheries and Game Willis
e. Parsons:
In answer to your request for an
opinion from this department as to
whether Chapter Sc of the Public
Laws of 1917, an act to provide for a
nonresident fishing license, applies
to residents of the Province of New
Brunswick who fish in the waters of
the st. Croix and st. John rivers, we
beg to advise that in our opinion it
does so apply.
The act in question provides that
Persons not bona fide residents of
the State and not actually domiciled
therein, except children under sixteen
years of age, shall not fish for, take,
catch or kill any kind of fish at any
time in any of the inland waters of
the State, or have same or any part
thereof, in possession. without first
having procured license therefor.
The st. Croix and st. John rivers
are, Of course, inland waters within
the meaning of the statute and no
one would question the right of the
State to regulate the taking of fish
therein were it not for the fact that
for portions of their lengths both Of
said rivers are the boundary line be-
tween this State and the Dominion
of Canada.
Does such fact give to the people
OF New Brunswick any peculiar right
or privilege in regard to fishing in
those portions of said rivers which
are on the American side of the
boundary line, which follows the mid
die of the main channel of said
rivers?
III any such right or privilege ex-
lists 1t must be because 1t was ex-
cepted and reserved to the govern
rnent Of Great Britain in the Web
r-Ashburton treaty determining
the boundary between Maine and the
British dominions of North America,
but careful study Of said treaty
discloses no such reservation.
There are provisions in said
treaty intended to safeguard the
rights of navigation and various 9TH
er uses of said rivers but no mention
is made of fishing.
From which it would appear, that,
In regard to fishing, it was the in
tention that each country should con-
troll and have jurisdiction over its
portions of said rivers. Such being
the case. we feel sure that there is
no exception to the right of the State
to enforce the provisions of the nom
resident fsherman's law"

Growers Fight
Over Prices

Through Disagreement as to
what the price on longanberr1es
should be to canneries this spring,
the independent growers organl-
zation. which met in the CONNER
cial club Saturday, broke up never
to meet again.
At a previous meeting COM
mittee was appointed to revise the
price list already adopted by The
growers. This committee report
ed Saturday with a price Of five
cents pound for logans, six cents
for strawberries and eight cents
for raspberries.
Immediately there were hurst
of oratory. Fred Wright of Hub
bard led the opposition to the
price of loganberries accusing Will
liam Bentley, one Of the members
of the committee, as being a re-
preventative of Paulhamous. 1t
was brought out later, however,
that Wright had already contract
ed his berries with this firm for
five cents a pound. During the
furror which followed, Bentley Of
fered to have this contract cancel
led if Wright so desired.
Joe Lafollette opposed the adop-
tion of the five cent price because
it was a minimum and for the
reason that should this price be
set cannery men would go stu
lower in their offers. Alex La
Toilette took the floor for a few
moments and stated that he would
his berries into wine before he
would sell at such a price.

berts were in favor of its accep-
tance on the grounds that it would
be all growers would get this yeal

Army Officials TO Probe
Wreck of Plane In Which
Seven Persons Lost Lives

Washington, May 80. - Army
officials were preparing today for
an official investigation OF the
crash Saturday, Gear Indian Head,
Maryland, of the ambulance arr
plane in which five army officers
and two civilians met death. The
fact that every occupant of the ma
chine. was killed made it appear
doubtful that the exact cause of
the disaster could ever be Develop
ed.
The plane, a Cuftiss- Eagle, di-
vested of its ambulance equipment
was making a return flight from
Langley field, Virginia, to Wash
ington, when it encountered a Sc
we're electrical storm accompanied
by winds estimated to be blowing
100 miles an hour.
Eye witnesses said the plane
unable to make headway in the
race OF the wind, descended ap-
parently in an attempt to make a
landing but after dropping to with
in 100 feet of the ground ap-
preached clump of trees and
swerved upward. The trees were
cleared, but as the plane started
for an open field nearby it was
seen to quiver, turn over and dive
vertically to earth.
All of the bodies of the victims
were closely grouped together,
some of them badly mutilated by
the engine which had been torn
from its bed and thrown back
ward, cutting the men like a sey-
the as it ploughed through the
narrow passenger compartment of
the plane.
A watch, found later, had stop
ped at 6:25 o'clock indicating the
exact time of the tragedy. Army
officers who later viewed the
wreckage said it was the worst
they had ever seen and were at a
loss to understand how 1t could
have resulted from such a short
fall.
All OF the slain officers were
widely known. Lieutenant Colon
ell Archie Miller had served in
the Spanish American war, Philip
pine 1nsurrection and the world
war. Second Lieutenant Stanley
NJ. Ames and Lieutenant Cleveland
w. McDermott each had served in
both the American and Canadian
forces overseas. Lieutenant John
M. PenneweII recently came to
Langley field from Kelly field,
Texas, for the aerial bombing
operations next month. Sergeant

pert mechanic at Boiling field

at his own request in the NTH
inning. junior weekend activi-
ties at Corvallis had proved too
much for the o. A. q. man and
a sore arm necessitated his retire
ment. When Keene took the
mound the Bears appeared to have

for the visitors, and to make but
four errors to the Bears seven.

during the game. In the last OF
