THAT UMPQUA FISH BILL
Every legislature that convenes
has a new fish bill to wrestle with,
and this bill usually pertains to Ash
ing on the Umpqua river, mo uwu
measure to oe presented iur cunnmor
atlon is House bill No. 120, Intro
rftinoHi hv Mr. Hukhea. of Salem, who,
toy the way is not a fisherman, neither
has he any cannery interests to serve,
that is, of bis own making. But
those of our citizens who are close
students of these Lower Umpqua flsh
bills see In this measure the fine Ital
ian hand of the big Interests, also
the complete ruination of the Ashing
industry of the upper umpqua river.
The bill as 'It now Btands, If passed
. iby both houses of the legislature and
. becomes ai law.- will (practically annul
the enterprise In so far as It applies
to the ordinary Individual, dui on
the contrary, will redound with much
benefit to the big fishing interests.
At the head of the state game and
fish commission rests a man of power-
, ful Influence. : This individual is a
big canneryman his name Is Warren
andl the fact he has always been
associated with tho Interests of the
prominent cnnnerymen of the state,
' it Is more than likely he haB their
Interests first to serve. He Is In a
position to "rone" many influential
men to work for any measure that
'. Is for tho good of the large canning
Interests of the state, and It is also
alleged that ho has his finger tips
1 on public ornclais who are cioseiy
allied with the Ashing Industry as It
applies to the Umlpqua river. Taking
these matters into consideration It
is quite apparent that the "small fry"
. the local sportsman stands a good
chance of "going over the top" to
return with an empty basket If the
bill proposed by Mr. Hughes becomes
a'law. '
Local sportmen claim the bill 'Is
obnoxious In the extreme and should
meet Immediate defeat, and others
who have the best Interests of the
up)per Umpqua in mind are certain
It spoils ruin to individual fishing.
The measure should be killed out
right. It should pass neither house,
' ho matter what concessions the au
thor or Its supporters agree to make
In order to have the bill become a
law. They will probably be willing
to have It trimmed to a largo extent
that a few of the salient features
would v still remain Intact, but any
juggling should be met with a prompt
defeat, ,"' Tho big canneryman'B in
terests should receive due considera
tion and loyal support just so 'long
as It; doeB not Bavor of an avaraclous
dosire to control the entire industry
to further their own personal ends.
The Umpqua river should not bo com
pletely bottled up at the mouth, as
intended by the Hughes bill.
On the front page of today's News
Is an article from W. C. Harding,
who pointB out a feasible way by
which the county can encourago now
(lie
Wl
people to locate within Its borders,
hen the big land owner decides to
break on a flfty-flfty basis with the
small Investor, and penults his ex
tensive land holdings to be subdlvld
ed into small tracts and sold' at a
ralr price on reasonable Installments,
then, and not until then, will Douglas
county reap the benotfls to bo deriv
ed from a more thickly populated
community.
The locnl gas company hns again
gone boforo the Publlo Service Com
inlBBion and asked for a flat advance
of fifty cents over tho present ratos
charged to their patrons. Consumers
or this particular varloty of 'Julco'
hotter "come over the counter" with
tho advance nslied. otliorwiso the da
niocratlo administration might take
the plant over and opernto It "for the
good of all concerned," a la tels-
pnono, etc.
It Is now claimed that the hundrod
million dollnrs for supplying food
and giving relief to European suffer
ers) Is to be used, In part, to feed the
Russian Bolshevik. That's light, get
them In good condition for the
slnughtor that is sure to come unless
that oloment is subduod In tho vory
near future.
There are a few democratic news
paper mien In the stnto who still
maintain that tho Wilson war pro
gram has been a success. Hut most
of thcbO follows have been awarded
a "government contract" to conduct
a post orflco as a side Issue to "ham
mering out" a "weakly" publication.
A TJolshevikl la a man with long
whiskers. Hut this does not noccos
Barlly Imply that a man with long
whiskers la a Uolshovlkl. There's a
few wandering around without any
alfalfa on their chin, who would
make good subjects.
President Wilson Is said to be In
favor of ft now 'International psycho
logy." Well, If the league of nations
1b to be purely psychological maybe
It will turn out all right after all,
The easiest job In tho world will
go to tho man who compiles the pub
llo speeches of Col. House.
Hennle Ford writes an article urg
ing captains of Industry to quit re
garding employees as factory fodder.
Why doesn't he say something
against the mangling of helpless po
destrlans?
German Bolshevlkis are reported
to have seized the Berlin waterworks
plant. Not nearly) as serious, tho, as
if they had grabbed the brewery.
The German health insurance plan
Is branded as a failure. It must be
admitted that Hunland Is not a very
healthy (place just now.
Norway will ask the peace confer
ence for Spltzbergen. That sounds
like It might be the place where the
flu started'.
Douglas county people want a sane
fish law not a law with the meshes
of the seine so small it will gather
in all the trout.
The Douglas county iprune orchard
is always a safe and sane investment.
