The protected II nine salnnm fishing moiiopnly at the
mouth of the Rogue imw enjoys the largest open season
in the state, but two closed seasons in spring anil fall of
thirtv-five davs each bciiur observed. The recent Icjnsla-
tui'e ai-'ain showed its narlialitv to this inouoiiolv, which i
for thirl)' years lias accumulated millions at the expense
of all southern Oregon, and rejected the master fish war
den's bill shortening the season.
Jlannony now reigns on the Columbia, both states
having agreed upon a law that provides the following
closed seasons: Spring close, from VI o'clock noon,
March 1, to 12 o'clock noon, May 1. Fall close, from 12
o'clock noon, August '!, to 12 o'clock noon, September
10. A weekly close of 21 hours, beginning at 0 o'clock p. in.
Saturday and extending to i o'clock p. m. Sunday, is also
provided. a
Jt is believed these closed seasons will give the salmon
the protection they have long needed and will be the
means of allowing a great percentage of them to reach the
hatcheries anil spawning grounds in the headwaters of
the various streams.
But no such protection for salmon in the Rogue is
granted. There is no closed Sunday, no two months' sea
son in the spring. The Hume interests have 2!)" days in
the year to fish. The Columbia river fishers have but 211
days. .No wonder salmon are diminishing each year and
steelhead becoming exterminated.

Seventh street, or that portion of it paved, has served
as a good object lesson to citizens of Medford as to the
need of paving. The contrast between paved ami unpaved
need of paving. The contrast between paved and unpaved
streets was never brought out sharper than it is here.
Already petitions are being circulated to extend the
paved area. Paving costs money, but property owners
have ten years to pay for it in, and the increase in the
value of property due to the pavement amply justifies the
expenditure.
Owners who object to paying for the cost of improve
ments that, appreciate their property are shortsighted.
They are in the same category with the grangers who
killed the Johnson good roads bill in the house because
gootl roads would increase taxes, forgetting that poor
roads maroon the farmer at certain seasons, depreciate
the value of his properly and entail a far heavier burden
upon him through inability to reach markets than taxes
could possibly make.
The paved street, area of Medford is the district in
which properly and properly values will advance the dis
trict that will improve so see thai your property gets
in it- t -j . i.l
