THE MORSTOTG OBEGQNIAS". I'BXDAX, JAyTTART 11. 1895. i KEW SALMON BILL 3IEASCRE WHICH THE GILLXET FISHERS HAVE EXDORSED. Senator Smith and Representative Csrtla Offer 'a Solution of tlie Salmon Qaetitlon. "Be It enacted, that hereafter it shall be lawful for only the gillnet fishermen of Clatsop county to take salmon in the Columbia river; provided, that it shall be unlawful for them at such times and sea sons as salmon of gcod quality are not running In proStable numbers." This, in other language, is the purport of the fish bills which Senator John II. Smith and Representative C. J. Curtis, of Clatsop county, have ready for the con sideration of the legislature, and which are endorsed by the sillnet fishermen's union. There are two of these bills, one regulating the season and the mesh of appliances, the other abolishing outright wheels and traps. The first bill reads as follows: It shall not be lawful to take or fish for salmon In or upon the Columbia river or any of its tributaries, by any means whatever. In any year, between the first day of March and the fifteenth day of April, or between the first day of August and the first day of September; provided, that in the Clackamas river it shall not be lawful to lake or fish for salmon by any means whatever between the first day of March and the fifteenth day of April, or between the first day of August and the first day of October. Any person or per sons fishing for salmon, or catching sal mon In violation of this section, or having fishing or leaving any fishing gear In the water in a condition to take fish, or pur chasing salmon so unlawfully caught, or having in his or their possession any such salmon, shall be deemed guilty of a mis demeanor, and upon conviction thereof shall b3 fined not less than JC3 nor more than 52W, or by imprisonement in th; county jail not exceeding 100 days. "It shall not be lawful to fish for salmon in the Columbia river or its tributaries, or upon any water over which this state has concurrent jurisdiction, between the fifteenth day of April and the first day of September of each year, with any gillnet, seine, weir, fishtrap, fishwheel, poundnet or othsr appliances, gear or contrivance for catching salmon, the meshes of which are less than 44 Inches square, or the slats of which are less than 4U inches apart, and any one owning or operating or using any gillnet, seine, weir, fishwheel, fishtrap, poundnet, or any other contriv ance contrary to the provisions of this sec tion, shall be deemed guilty of a misde meanor, and upon conviction thereof shall be fined not less than $30 nor more than 50, or by Imprisonment In the county jail not exciedlng 100 days." The other bill peremptorily, abolishes wheels and traps, and thus holds out to the gillnet fisher the realization of his dream of many years of waiting and hop ing. It has a preamble, and reads as fol lows: "Whereas, The supply of salmon and other food fishes in the waters of the state in Oregon Is being rapidly and wantonly exhausted by the Indiscriminate catching and destruction of young and small, as well as mature salmon, and other food, fishes, by means of fishwheels, fishtraps and poundnets, therefore "Be it enacted by the legislature of the state of Oregon "That It shall be unlawful for any per sons to catch, take or fish for salmon or other food fishes In any of the waters of tho state of Oregon, or upon any waters over which this state has concurrent juris diction, by means of any fishwheel, fish trap, poundnet, or any other stationary geatfor contrivance,, or to have or to leave any stationary gear in such a condition that tho same may take, catch or Injure salmon or other food fishes, and any per son violating the provisions of this section shall be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor, and shall be fined not less than 550 nor moro than $250, or by imprisonment in tho oounty jail not exceeding 100 days." The great danger of the salmon indus try now Is that those pecuniarily interest ed in the fish, ond therefore most active In discussing and recommending laws, will expend all their energy in fighting each other, and that the struggle will leave us without any salmon law at all. If the salmon interests would unite on the recommendations of United States Com missioner McDonald, a law embodying his views could undoubtedly be passed. He rajs "the use of pounds, gillnets, traps and seines in the louver river should be limited strictly to the months of May, June and July." Now. this Is not a griev ous condition to put upon government aid, as these three months comprise the most productive gillnet seasons. But the fishermen's bill files In the face of it. Mc Donald Is particular that the April run should be allow ed to get well up the river. Accordingly, he mentions May 1 for the lower river and May 15 for the upper. The fishermen, however, throw everything wide open April 15. So far from stopping with July for the year, they propose to rest during the August run of inferior salmon and fish the rest of the fall. Concerning the regulation of the mesh, and the abolition of wheels and traps, there is nothing now to add to what The Oregonian has already saM the question. Any law against traps must oe joint with Washington to amount to any thing at all. Concerted effort might in duce tho Washington legislature to adopt the McDonald and McGulre suggestions as to close seasons. But It looks as If tho fishermen of both states will devote themselves solely to a fight on wheels and traps. It Is the best way in the world to defeat all legislation and destroy the sal mon. Tho government Is not interested in a trade fight between appliances. But It Is watching the matter of a close sea wn. and will withhold artificial propaga tion unless its conditions are complied with. THE LOOCHOO ISLANDS "Where the Women Are In the Ma jority nntl Do the Hardest Work. These islands are situated in a south west direction from the province of Sat suma. at a distance of about 500 miles; the group consists of several large islands and many outlying small islands. The largest of all Is popularly known as Hondo. Us circumference being about S00 miles. The natives are roushly numbered at 4M.0M. and the number of Japanese re siding there Is only 300. The women are supposed to outnumber the men, the sexes being present in the ratio of about 5 to 4. As the potato is their common food, men and m omen spend much of their time in Its cultivation, thi3 and sugar-making being their chief pur suits. The average annual production of sugar Is estimated at 40,000,000 casks, each containing about 100 pounds. Weaving, lacquer working and distilling a liquor tailed "awamorl" must al be named as industries. The materials for making lac quer wares, however, come from Japan; the warm temperature of the islands has much to do with producing a specially bright color. As a rule with uncivilld communities, the women do the hardest work, and they are seen on the streets carrying large baskets full of fish on their heads and barefooted. I toman, which Is the only fishery in the islands, produces all the fish needed; the men engage In fishing, and the women hawk the catches about the streets or dispose of them at fish markets. Carry ing the baskets on their heads, their faces and necks are soon painted red with tlsU blood. They carelessly wipe it away from their eyes and noses with their sleeves, and they quickly become Inde scribably dirty and intolerably repugnant. But the dirtier they become with fish blood the prouder and happier they look. The women are said to be usually strong er and larger than the men. When at work they are not at all likely to be passed by unnoticed. The natives are very dull and stubborn; but they are very polite externally. The males and females alike have dressed their hair up into round queues which they ornament with hair pins made of metaL Formerly distinctions something like Indian castes were signified by pins, nobles wearing only gold ones, the next caste sliver ones, and so on with other Inferior metals. But since the Islands, were put under the Japanese government the caste system has been abolished, al though the custom lingers on among them. In Shurl, the capital, and In Nana, the second city, morality is not kept on a high level. One very curious custom con demns a newly-married man to leave his bride for some days and to spend his time in a house of 111 repute. There is no written language, and so here is no authentic records of their his tory. It is supposed that Shunten-wo. or King Shunten, son of Minamoto Tameto mo, a famous archer of Japan, who nour ished in the reign of the Emperor Toon, about 1000 years ago, was banished to these islands, married a native woman there, subdued the natives and was made their king. The natives, it is thought, emigrated from Japan, but their lan guage is quite different from Japanese. Some authorities think they came from China, and numbers of them are said to have gone back secretly to China. They have really no religion beyond a kind of ancestral worship. They have a very strange custom of worshiping the dead's bones every three years, and they spend a great deal of money In keeping their tombs clean and magnificent all the time; it Is said that they spend most of their incomes on the tombs. Buddhism and Christianity have teen introduced, the former about 20 years ago, and the latter later. Both have gained a few converts. The natives are peculiarly averse to education, and though there are a great' many government schools, very few have ever attended them. Spe cial inducements, even money awards, have been offered to get them to school, but still they will not enter. Some 50,OiJ yen are expended annually at present in educational experiments in the islands. AN OPEN SEASON WANTED SonieXevr Ilenn Advanced on the Sal mon Question. PORTLAND, Jan. 10. (To the Editor.) Undoubtedly the protection of our sal mon Industry will be one of the most im portant subjects with which the legisla ture will have to deal. You have given the subject much attention in your col umns, but no more, I think, than Its im portance warrants. As I hold views dif fering somewhat In very important par ticulars from those that have been given prominence In your columns, I hope you will afford me space to express them, with the idea that the subject should be studied from all sides, so that whatever action is taken, it may be done upon a full dis cussion of the subject. We all aim at the same object the pres ervation of the salmon industry- What ever will best accomplish that end is what we all desire to see done. In the first place, I take it for granted that this is to be done for purely business reasons, and not for mere sentiment. The salmon indus try brings Into the state several million dollars yearly, and therefore the state Is Interested in preserving it from destruc tion, and if possible, in Increasing it. It being a business matter, should not the convenience and advantages of those en gaged in the business of catching, pack ing and handling fish be studied and be de ferred to as far as possible without endan gering anything really vital to the preserv ation of the salmon? There has been too much discussion of this question from a theoretical standpoint only,- -and not enough attention paid to its business feat ures. It is this side I desire to present. I have read the report of Mr. McDonald the United States fish commissioner, with a great deal of interest, and 'while I agree with him in many particulars, I must dissent from his recommendations as to the proper change to mako in the close seasons. I understand that the Ore gon game and fish protector, Mr. McGuire, Indorses Mr. McDonald's recommenda tions in his report, though I have not had the pleasure of reading the report. It is here where I think the commissioner's theory conflicts with business and com mon sense. The present close seasons ex tend from March 1 to April 10. and from August 10 to September 10. He recom mends that the spring close season be ex tended to the middle of May and gives as a reason that he fish that come into the river early do not go at once to the spawning grounds, but loaf around near the mouth of the river and are caught when the open season begins. It is well known that no matter at what time the fish enter the river they all spawn about the same time, and that those that come into the river late In the season hasten to the spawning grounds as rapidly as possible, some of them coming in so late that they seek spawning grounds in the streams near the mouth of the river, and others even drop the overripe eggs into the water before they reach a suitable place to spawn. From this it follows that the time for an open season is in the spring when they are not trying to reach the spawning grounds, and the time to protect them by a close season Is in the late summer and fall, when they are headed direct for the spawning places, and are In the actual act of reproduction. I would advise as a common-sense measure the abolition of the spring close season entirely, and the beginning of the fall close season July 15. instead of August 10. let us catch the fish that enter the river early and loaf around without any desire to ascend to the headwaters and let us give an open river to the fish that come in late, and make a bee-line to the spawning grounds. There is always a large run of fish In July and August, and if fishing is stopped by the middle of July, a far greater number will actually reach the headwaters and pro create than now do. or would with the close seasons arranged as McDonald and McGulre recommend. As an aid to this, I would prohibit fishing In the Clackamas and Sandy and other good spawning riv ers this side of the mountains at all times. Let those streams be given up completely to natural and artificial prop agation. As I said in the beginning, the protec tion and propagation of salmon is a busi ness proposition only, and from a busi ness point of view, there are several good reasons why the spring salmon should be caught and the summer run permitted to spawn. It Is undisputed that the quality of the spring run is far superior to that of the chmook entering the river later In the season The flesh Is firmer, better flavored and more oily. It is worth more per pound, whether sold fresh in our home market, shipped fresh to tle East or packed in the canneries. It was the spring run of the chinook salmon that gave the Columbia-river brands their great reputation in the world's markets. Even today, packers label their best brands "Spring Catch," and some of them are not particular whether the months in which the fish so labeled are caught have an "r" in them or not. The Columbia river brands of canned salmon and the fresh salmon shipped to Eastern markets need never fear a rival so long as the spring run of chinook is packed or shipped. Why should the packer be denied the op portunity to put up the best quality; why should the fishermen be prevented from catching the fish when they bring hlni the highest price, and why should the shipper be kept from handling salmon at the season when it will bring him the largest returns, simply to loaf about the lower river and be caught at last in a poorer condition than he was when he first entered the river, perhaps fao months before? Theories are fine things, but plain business facts and common horse sense are what we need in deal ing with this question. I hope the legis lature will not act upon the impractical recommendations of these Aery excellent but wholly theoretical gentlemen, -without first appointing a committee of care ful and conscientious men to make a study of the subject from the experiences of men actually engaged in the salmon Industry, who can give them some points on the business aspects of the question the theorists seem to ignore. "What Is wanted is a regulation of the salmon industry, so that the state of Oregon can draw the greatest possible revenue from, it for many years to come. One source of this revenue is the ship ment of fresh salmon to Eastern markets. The great rival of the Columbia river in this business is the Puget sound. Already our spring close season cuts us off from that market a month and a half, at the very time when high prices prevail and when the fish are at their very best qual ity. For mere argument's sake, let us say that we lose the sale of 1.000.000 pounds of fish during that time, at only 10 cents a pound; the state revenue from the industry Is $100,000 less than it should be. Now it is proposed to extend this useless close season a whole month longer and give Puget sound a still greater advant age in the shipping business, besides de nying Columbia-river shippers the chance to ship when the fish are of the best quality and in a condition to maintain the superiority made years ago by the spring run of the royal chinook. The added price for early fish and the money thus brought into Oregon, instead of going else where, does not all go into the pockets of the shippers, by any means. The fisher men receive the most of it, and a large portion qf it goes to transportation com panies and for other expenses of hand ling the fish. But it matters little who gets it; the point Is that the state revenue from salmon Is that much greater, the business is kept from going elsewhere, the reputation of Columbia salmon is maintained and no damage whatever is done to the industry. Let there be an en tirely open spring season and a much earlier close season in the fall, and let the season remain closed during the time the fish are spawning, and the salmon Indus try will be regulated fir its best advant age, both from a business point of view and for its preservation. E. CHOLPECK. A SNAKE RAMPART. Serpents Twisted Into n. Mass for Self-Defene. A German traveler and naturalist de scribes a spectacle he once witnessed in the savannahs of Izacubo, In Guiana, which he well characterizes as "the most wonderful and terrible" that can be seen. "We were 10 men on horseback, two of whom took the lead. In order to sound the passages, while I preferred to skirt the great forests. One of the blacks who formed the vanguard returned full gallop and called to me: " 'Here, sir, come and see serpents in a pile!' He pointed out something elevated in the middle of the savannahs, which ap peared like a bundle of arms. One of my company then said: "This is certainly one of those assemblages of serpents which heap themselves on each other after a violent tempest. I have heard o these, but have never seen any. Let us proceed cautiously and not go too near. "When we were within 20 paces of It, the terror of our horses prevented our nearer approach, to which, however, none of us were inclined. Suddenly the pyramidal mass became agitated; horrible hissings issued from it, thousands of serpents rolled spirally on each other, shot forth out of the circle their hideous heads, pre senting their envenomed darts and fiery eyes to us. "I own I was one of the first to draw baok; but when I-saw that this formidable phalanx remained at its post, and ap peared to be more1 disposed to defend itself than to attack us, I rode round it, in order to view its order of battle, facing the enemy on every side. I then sought what could be tho design of this numerous assemblage, and I concluded that this specie of serpent dreaded some terrible enemy, which might be the great serpent, or the cayman, and that they reunited themselves after having seen their enemy, in order to resist or attack him in a mass." e The Deer Canht Himself. From the hills and dales of the beauti ful Pleasant Hill section of country comes a deer story that, were it not for the un doubted veracity of those who have told it, would be considered rather "fishy," says the Eugene Guard. On the hills ad jacent to that section of country the hounds occasionally get on the trail of a deer, and their deep baying is heard from the distance, while sometimes across little valleys can be seen the race for life or death on the mountain sides. Arery rare ly, however, do the deer, even when hard pressed, venture Into the settled part of. the country. J. N. Otto, who lives In that part of the county, one day last week heard the hounds chasing a deer over on the hills from his place. A little while afterward he heard a racket In his wood shed and in Instant later the deer came leaping Into his kitchen, frightened, and trembling from head to foot. To effect its capture was of course an easy matter, and it was done Immediately.
