Douglas Abstract Co. 31 MOUSE BEL 120 - Roseburg, Oregon, January 27th 1919. To the Citizens of Douglas County: The Umpqua Fishermen's Protective Association takes this means of appealing to their fellow citizens of Douglas County to see that justice is accorded them, and that a great industry of this county is not wantonly or ignorantly ruined or hampered. v. i j We are more vitally interested in the protection and increase of the salmon in the Umpqua River than any other class. There is invested in the industry on the lower -Umpqua a quarter of a million dollars. But this is the only river in the State of Oregon where tide water fisher men are not permitted to catch Chinook salmon when the run is on. . Our present law prohibits fishing for Chinook from April 16 to May 15. This is the period of the heavy run when 76 per cent of the seasons run is on. On Rogue River, where the run is from two to three weeks later than our run, the season opens on April 15, instead of closing as It does on the Umpqua, and remains open throughout the run of Chinook salmon. On the Columbia River the season openB on May 1, although the run of chlnook is even later than that of the Rogue. Tide water fishermen on the Rogue River are permitted to fun with not only drift nets and set nets, but also seines; which latter are well known to be much more destrjctlve of salmon than drift or set nets. On the Columbia River, not only drift and set nets, but, Immense seines, purse seines, traps and' fish wheels , are used. . ' On the Umpqua river nothing but drift and set nets are used. The present law permits fishing with Belnes of ono inch mesh for shad, herring, porch, or bloaters. These are small sea fish. There is a fine quality of sardines too small to be caught with an Inch mesh, and a change . in the law is asked, so as to use a smaller mesh for these fish. This change should not be opposed by anyone. What would the people of this county say to a proposal that prune growers should only be permitted to harvest their prunes in the month of November? - ' ' If the stream were in danger of depletion of Its salmon, by permitting the fishing asked' for, it might well be argued that the change should not be made. But such would not be the case. This fact has been al ready demonstrated In the more Btromious fishing dono on the Rogue and Columbia Rivers. Furthermore, we have only to add to the number of salmon fry which are placed In the river from our hatchery, In order to increase to any desired amount the run of salmon. There is annually taken from the Umpqua hatchery from 7 Mi to 9 million eggs. Of these, but 1 Mi million are returned to the Umpqua, while the balance are taken to other streams, reported by those who profess to know to be sent to the Columbia River. Why Is there no movement on foot by those who are opposing cur measure to have a greater percentage of salmon fry returned to the Umpqua, so as to make more Umpqua salmon rather than more Columbia rivor salmon, instead of most foolishly trying to kill one of the most Important Industries of the county? Time and space do not permit presenting all the Important facie in one Issue. But the public shall be enlightened thoroughly. - It takes all day traveling by train, to go from our homes to the county seat of Douglas County. Do not treat us like foreigners. Do not drive our people to seek liberty and the right to live and develope our- . selves In the establishment of ROOSEJVELT County. The Interests of the legitimate sportman and of the great salmon industry do not conflict. A proper ' and legitimate use of the stream will not only permit of a greatly Increased catch of salmon, but also a steady increase in the ran of salmon. The change in the season proposed conforms absolutely to a proper and legiti mate nse of the stream as demonstrated both on Rogue river and the Columbia river. The Increase in the run of salmon up to at least five times the present run, by turning back Into the Umpqua only what fry are now taken. Is entirely feasible. : ; . - - ' Umpqua Fishermen's Protective Association LAND IS GOING CP. . . . . I If you Intend to buy a farm now Is your chance.
