PA'GE TWO MEDFORD 1SLML TRIBUNE, MEDFORD. OREGON, AYEDXERDAY, JANlTARY 2o, 1911. APPEAL FOR HID TO HUME Portland Broker, Wlio Figures On Selling Cannery, Asks Legislators to Repeal Bill Closing Rogue to Commercial Fishing. SALEM, Jmi. 25. D. E. Kcnscv partner of Ivan lluninBon, who litis a dcnl on to svl the Hume cannon at Uio tnoiilh of the Koruc, piiiviilei! tho restriction on commercial rUhinu is removed, lias sent each lcis'i'lor tho following letter seeking hi? suit port: Dear Sir: In connection with the hilt hoforo the legislature for the amendment of tho present law gov erning fishing la Itoguo river, your attention Is called to tho following brief statement of tho facts: Tho present law prohibits all fish ing In Itoguo river, excepting with hook and lino. Ohjoct The only reason given for tho enactment of the Inw was that It was for tho henoflt of tho sports men nnd pleasure seokors upon a por tion of tho upper river. As applied to the fishing at the mouth of tho river, tho measure will result In no such benefit, ns tho fish caught aro Chinook salmon and can nowhoro bo caught with hook nnd lino at any time. The run of chluook salmon comes at a tlmo of year when tho river Is clogged with tho debris of placer mining, so that It is practically Im possible for them to ascend In any uunibor over tho dams and artificial obstructions to their spawning grounds; it is safo to say that fow chlnook salmon spawn naturally in tho river nnd tho supply is dependent upon artificial propagation. lleason Tho Inltlallvo menmiro waB drafted by people who hnd novor boon at tho mouth of the river and know nothing of tho conditions there and was carried by tho votes of peo ple absolutely ignorant of Its real effect, who woro lured to voto fa vorably by tho catchwords, "protec tion of fish." Effect 1. It prevents nil commer cial fishing. !!. It confiscates canneries, cold storage plnnt, etc., at tho mouth of tho river conservatively valued at $150,000. 3. It destroys' tho greatest single Industry in Curry county, doprlvos innny people of their livelihood nnd many others of a groat pnrt of tholr earnings, directly affecting a largo proportion of tho entire population of tho county. 4. It cuts off n presont mnrkot for fiomo 3000 tons of merchandise per year, purchased elsewhero In tho state for the most part In Portland. C. By cutting off tho outgoing froight, I. o.' flBhlng nnd canning ma terial and supplies, grontly increases tho cost of remaining shipments, tlum materially raising the cost of living In the county. G. It will absolutely diminish the Jiumhor of chlnook salmon tho best nnd most vnlimMe fish In tho rlv'r for tho prlvnto luitchorles, which now keep up tho supply, will of uecesslty bo nbandonod. Character Tho presont law ab solutely annihilates tho fishing In dustry upon tho second largest river In tho state, tho second most Impor tant salmon river, and tho only other rlvor like the Columbia enJoyltiK a spring run of chlnook salmon. It Is directly confiscatory of tho large Investment In fishing and can ning plants and unjuttt In depriving the parties who at great expenditure of time, trouble and money, have for years been hatching and plaulliiK salmon therein, In tho faith that they would ho allowed to catch a fair pro portion thereof. It Is futile in that Kb application to the mouth of the river will not bouoflt that upper river angling. In conclusion, It Is submitted that It should bo amended so as to allow commercial fishing for the flint few miles up from the mouth of the river, because nil fair-minded people, with knowledge of tho true facts, would so vote and denlrn. Many further facts, omitted here from for the sake of brovlty, toother with elaboration and proof of thoao thoreln set forth, will readily and gladly bo furnUhud you, If you o deslro. Thanking you for iiioh attention as you may see fit to give this matter, I remain, Vory truly your, 1). H. KKASHY. SEEKS TO GRAB KLAMATH RESORT Homestead Law Evoked hy Bishop in Effort to Secure Land Reserve by Government Along Pelican Bay for Use of Public. RU CHIIK That B. St. George Bishop, holder of a special use permit on 1C0 acres of laud on the edge of Klamath lake, Ib endeavoring to sccuro control of tho property under tho homestead l.nw permitting the withdrawal of forest lands bettor suited to agri cultural purposes Is tho counter charge mado by porsons In sympathy with the attitude Bhown hy the local forest sorvlco office toward Bishop. Tho land In question, which Is slt uatod on Pelican bay, Is said to bo totally unfit for agricultural pur poses and Ib alleged to be valuable only ns a silo for a roBprt. Opinions expressed by mombcra of tho forest servlco familiar with tho location lead to a belief that It Is for this latter purpose Hint Bishop Is desir ous of securing tho ownership. In ordor to plnco tho Bhores of tho lake at tho disposal of the public, for use as summer home sites, tho forest sorvlco recently surveyed ton lots along tho shore. Each is 100 feet wide and whllo routed to an Individ ual as a homo site for a nominal sum It Is not closed to use of the general public, tho banks being always open to nnyono ns wishing to land upon Miom from a boat or wishing to fish from them. Besides tho ton rented lots, ovory 1000 feet will, when tho work Is com pleted by the department, boo the sotting aside of a Bpnco of two ucrcs or inoro for use ns a public camping ground nnd It Is for the purposo of throwing tho entlro bank of the lake open In this manner that tho forest sorvlco 1b contesting to tho granting of an ownership to tho land to Bish op and his ns soclalcs. Tho value of tho tltubor on tho Mlshop strip Is plncod by tho govern ment at ?G000, and a recent offor of $30 per acre for tho timber on tho land made by a Klamath Kails lum berman wns rofusod. The value of tho hind It used for resort purposes Is approximately $50, 000 and the claim Is made by mem bers of tho forest sorvlco that in that fact lies tho reason why Bishop, n gun club of Klnmath Kails who now use tho property, and n number of IClniuuth Falls business men asso ciated Indirectly with lllshop, nro en deavoring to circulate a petition around Klnmath and Jackson coun ties asking the department of agri culture to turn over 1(10 ucrcs of forest laud and lake front to Bishop as agricultural land, which will not oven produco a crop of weeds. Tho Inst parcel of summer home lots leased by tho government wore taken up by Bedford people, nnd It Is to satisfy the demand for more of this property that the forest service Is repudiating the claims of the lllsh op clique.
