m. MacDonald who opened the meeting said that at the time when the tourists are here in the greatest numbers, the roads are the poorest. The roads are doneln the Spring and not touched during the rest oi the Summer.

In 1823 when the Conservatives came to power, the roads were in such bad condition, rocks and grav- el in the middle of the roads and work started in such s. manner that had to be completed. That is the reason we had in borrow money. They had started projects which the funds oi’ the Province were unable to stand.

Mr. MacDonald gave amusing in- stances oi the "rigid economy" o! the 10GB Government. The iirst thing they did was to provide each Minister with one or two cars to tour the country.

FISHING RIGHTS OPEN COURT WAR

mmFORD, Ore, July R29. (U!) —Battle to the finish between mil- lionaire San Franciscans and “bait fishermen‘ ‘of Southern Oregon was predicted here when the San Fran- ciscans went to court to have the upper Rogue river declared their private property.

Whatever the circuit courts de- cision, it was ireeiy predicted. ap- peals will be taken and the iight may become a protracted and ex- pensive legal battle.

The "bait ﬁshermen" were not involved in the’ suit oi Herbert Illleishhacker and others to have the river declared their property, but they watched the case closely, prepared to take part.

Seekers aitor gold went up the river bed during unprecedented low water; hunting ior deposits oi min- oral in rock its-sures in the river bed. The Californians had purchas- ed property onboth sides oi the Rogue, a Jamed steelhesd ﬁshing stream. and had posted trespass not- ices. ‘Ihey secured a temporary in- junction claiming that the river was not navigable and that their prop- erty extended to the center oi the stream from both sides.‘ The mat- ter was to be iurther thrashed out in an application for a permanent injunction,

‘Southern Oregon's "bait dsber- inen" take their iishln‘ seriously. Day laborers, mechanics. business and proiessional men, they have re- peatedly subscribed war iunds o! thousands oi dollars to get legis- lation barring commercial ilsher- msn from the mu length oi the Rogue.
