More Dornicks Indianward

What's your conception of I he
typical Indian? Whulcnr else he

now comes an anthropologist who
declares that there's not u word of

This Is all dandy, and nothing

tho anthropologist goes a lillle
further. He suys t lime's nothing
an Indian likes so much as a good,

ho suys, go In for practical Jokeii
In droves, on a kind of intiss-pro-duel

So, 1 got in my car and drove at

Why the threat of "conse

rank, dry grass, for all I know;
but there can be little argument
against the fact of fire hazard, and
that angle of tho subject Is Hi
one which is likely to appeal lo all

LETTERS

CRITICIZES CONDITIONS
HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR
FISH LIFE DEPLETION
July 9,
Editor News-Review:
During the past few weeks we
have received many letters from
anglers desiring luform:itIou lelu
tive to steelhead and salmon fish
ing in the Umpqua. Some of
these inquiries came from us fur
away as Iowa and Missouri, uud
wero evidently Inspired by Har
old Say's articles that recently
appeared in Outdoor Life and oth
er sports publications. They uro
considering the Umpqua us a
placo to spend their summer vaca
tion, uud to try their luck for steul
head and salmon.
All of which brings back to our
memory a statement In Zaue
(irey's letter published In tho
News-Review of Juno ii. last.
"Tho Umpqua If properly con
served and protected will want lo
bo visited by every angler in the
United States." Another state
ment In the saino letter: "I hope
you Oregoulaus will wuke up In
time to save tho Umpqua."
The simple truth Is that Harold
Say came to the Umpqua nt the
lime tho recently-completed new
l a ni was obstructing the passage
of fish. The fish were collected
in considerable numbers In the
waters below the dam, due to the
fact that the fishways had not yet
been perfected. Fishing for once
In rocent years was really good,
but with perfected fishways and
easy passage- of tho Binall rem
nant of tho once great silver
horde of the Umpqua, that is nil
over, and Harold Suy Is not like
ly to make many trips to tho Ump
qua, but will join tho army of
Zaue Greys and other prominent
anglers that fish the Umpqua no
more.
The sud truth Is that we havo
so little real knowledge of fish
and fishing that we are not sure
of anything. Instead of trying o
learn, we arc helping to hide I lie
truth from even ourselves.
Instead of hunting out the facts
and making them known, wo try
to make ourselves and others be
lieve wo have apuradlse of. fish
ing. Thus we bar the way to our
own progress, for onlythosc tak
ing the cream of the crop are iu
possession of, the facts, uud we
aro helping them hide the truth;
so that wo Oregoniuns are not
likely to wake up in time to savo
the Umpqua uud the Umpqua is
but one of tlio jobs for us Ore
gon i an s.
We advertise an Umpqua para
dlse for the angler and what we
really have is u 3truggllug rem
nant pf what was once a seeming
ly large school of tiny fishes that
were hatched In tho river yenrs
before (though even in tho be
ginning It was not one thousandth
part of tho great school it should
havo been).
The chubs and many other pests
have taken a terrible toll of them,
as has also tho angler before they
reached the ocoan, whero they
were continually ut tho mercy of
tho great fleet of deep sou trol
lers during tlio two to six or sev
en years (or whulover period of
time required for them to' roach
maturity and become educated to
the trolling lures) before ugaln en
tering the Umpqua to run the
gauntlet of the gfllnet fleet.
We know vory well thut all
catch reports or the commercial
troller and ot the glllneller should
bo obtained and made public
knowledge, but ure not.
We know that Instead, tho game
commission has published and dis
tributed a synopsis of Oregon
angling laws which inform us
among other things "It is ulwuys
unlawful."
To fish by any mean 4 other
thun with hook and liuc while the
fish commission sells licenses for
the use of gillucts (of any size or
length whatever) to bo used in
the Umpqua (though gillnots li
censed for use in the Columbia can
he no longer than two hundred and
fifty fathoms).
And wo are also Informed that
"It is always unlawful to use more
than one line or line and rod held
in the hand," while the fish com
mission is selling licenses where
by the resident may use as many
lines and hooks as he may desire,
simply by purchasing as many
trolling licenses as he may desire,
each one permitting tho use or no
more than six lines to which may
he attached no more than twelve
hooks, and the price is S2.5U per
license.
Of course, we wouldn't think ol
permitting their uso directly in the
Oregon streams which is as it
should bebut it is a sad fact
that, their toll of our salmon is a
thousand times more than if that
condition were reversed and their
use permitted only within the
streams; simply because tho sal
mon during the years that they
are., out In the ocean growing to
maturity before coming back into
the river collect In schools to feed
upon schools of tiny fishes that
also furnish food for great, flocks
of sea birds, uiat are easily seen
by aviators in airplane.!, wh'jsc
business it is to report the loca
tion of theso schools of salmon;
so that the great troll fleet may
come from tho many ports along
the entire coast. Kach boat pro
vided with us many of Iho. special
anglers licenses as the size of the
ship and length of the groat polos
that extend Tar out on either aide
will permit the uso or and continue
their work until the school is so
broken, the remnant so scattered
that It becomes necessary to find
another school in order to make
profitable the operation of tho
great ships. These remnants, per- 1
haps many times broken and scat-
tered during tho years spent out
thoro, ure tho ones that conMi-
tute tho fatuiou part of our para
dise. Perhaps we can't do any thing
about It. I don't know, but if they
were Jap ships 1 am sure we would
and as far as we are coucerued
I think the result to our fishing
is about the same.
The writers of these letters are
coming and we are going to do tho
best we can for them, but inex
perienced and handicapped as
the majority of them are, fishing
a strange stream at whatever
time they can arrange to arrive,
the law of averages will prevail.
The majority of them are sure to
come no more for although we all
know that some expert anglers
still make some fair catches in
snite of all those handicaps, the
chance the average visitor has a
slim indeed.
So why not tell everyone the
tin Hi that tho "It's always unlaw
ful": "To fish hy any means other
than hook and line."
"To use moio than one line or
line and rod held in the hand.
"To use more than three hooks
on one line.''
"To take more than thveo sal
mon or steelheads in a day or ten
in a week."
"To sell, barter or exchange one,
etc., etc."
Is just meant to sound good to
the individual angler but does not
apply where It Is needed.
Sincerely,
II. F. PEARSON.
GAME BOARD CHIDED FOR
ORDER ON DOES, FAWNS
UROCKWAY. Ore., July 12
Editor News-Review: When the
state game commission said there
would be "no open season" on civet
cat. It was considered quite a joke
and now they open tho hunting
season on does and fawns in a cer
tuin game reserve "to preserve one
of the states largest mule deer
concentrations," and othor rosorves
are opened to regular bunting "in
un effort to cut down the sacson-
able flow of animals" ( protected
game) Into this same reserve.
Say, that sounds just like some
more of this New Deal stuff.
Next we may expect to find our
Ifarost reserves y.yrbwn ppen to
fire bugs with the brilliant idea of
reducing the seasonable growth of
trees to preserve the large stands
of timber in these reserves.
It's a wonder the game officials
(who probably never saw a deer
outsjfHe of !l city park) don't place
a bounty on ail wild game animals.
Then we might do well to re-stock
our depleted reserves with those
sumo officials and their pesky ltt-
tlo civet cats uud declare a year
around "open season." Yours truly,
W. L. McABOY.

Why Tnose Dreams?
The worst dreams conservative
republicans havo on these warm
nights arise from fear that in some
way or other they will find Mayor
Fiorello LaGuurdla of New York
their party's presidential nominee
in 1910.
It. can be said with authority,
however, that LaOuardia what
ever his immediate course in New
York Btalo politics has no lllu
uin. ti.ut Ito ,.n ho uninitiated and
elected to the presidency two
years hence. His closest menus uu
feel that he wouli ho a valuable
vice-presldentlal nominee and there
Is reason to belieye that LaGuardia
himself doesn't scorn the Idea.
If the New York mayor had fig
ured on running for president
1910 ho long before this tiini
would havo begun to organize an
nrrn.l In mnlrn him NfiW York's
governor or one of her senators.
LaGuardia is still personally
close to Itoosevclt and the betting
among his friends is thut ho will
before long have entered into u
more formal political alliance with
tbe president.
Why Bother

find:
"Provided further, that no part
of the funds appropriated by thin

' Daily Devotions
By DR. CHAS. A. EDWARDB
One would imagine that in
stead of grumbling at Jesus fei
gning to dine with a man who
was a sinner, the good people
of that day would have rejoic
ed at- the- prospect of the goi
that might come to the man
through Ibat fellowship, llow
foolishly Inconsistent we can
lie when we allow our little
prejudices and narrowness of
soul lo get ahead of us. It Is to
be feared that we do the cause
of religion more harm by our
small Utile ways of looking at
things and the mean little
things we do and say I ban we
might by a more flagrant
bleach or the moral code. Do
Thou help us, Our God, more
consistently to live, and to be!
Iho thing that wo preach and
profess. May wo never spoil the
lair name or our faith by in
sincorlly and deceit, strengthen
our Intentions and purpose iu
Jesus' name. Amen.
