MOL-cns n pi c Convention Which Began With "Roast" Ends With Vote of Thanks. made In attending- the convention and 1 In visiting camps and ranges to learn the real needs of the stockmen. The report of the comlmttee on rps- olutlona contained a resolution asking i the National Government to pay boun ties for the destruction of predatory ! animals and recommend In in: - uniform bounty laws. The bounty law did not meet with the unanimous support of the convention. One delegate thought that the field employes of the Forestry Bureau should be sriven the duty of KMng' predatory an imal. Mr.- Pinchot explained that the For- estry Bureau was even then consider- In? plans for such a policy and intend ed to employ hunters, not only on the forest ranges, but on grazing grounds to Kill coyotes. Upon thia declaration, the previous motion was changed to one thanking Mr. Pinchot for his zeal In ridding the arid West of wild aril - HELENA WINS NEXT MEET would be expected to live up to the assumption of the motion. Although Richard A. Bal linger, of Seattle, has been appointed I and com missioner of the United States while Hot Contest for 1908 Convention -the committee on resolutions was In session, the convention passed tne committee's motion to the effect that John W. Springer, of Colorado, be rec ommcncled for the position. Other resolutions provide for the support of an official organ by the convention and for the urging of a law against the manufacture of shoddy and adulterated woolen goods. The convention adopted a resolution suggesting amendments to a hill intro duced In the Senate by Senator Bur- hett, authorizing the President to es tablish grazing districts In the public domain. The convention regards this as a usurpation ox state amnority ana would have the authority given the President in the bilT divided between the President and the state authorities.

I .wonder- if the people of Oregron fully realize mat the salmon Industry on the Columbia River Is dying. Whether they do or not. it Is unqeatlonably a. Ta-t it is well that they- should not only be made to ijnderstana that such misfortune Is impending, but also made to realize, If possible, what a serious loss the destruc tion of that industry means to us. It hai brought into the stale during- he last 30 mrs fully $100,000,000 dollars. It furnishes employment to 5000 or more people and annually distributes among- them several million dollars. . Why should' we permit so great nn in- dustry to perish when it can be so easily preserved ? The Legislatures of Oregon and Washington are now in session, and I appeal to eadi to take prompt and ef fective action looking to the preservation of this Industry. It is my conviction that all fishing: ex cept by spear or hook and line above tide water should -be prohibited. Hatcheries are necessary, of course, and must be maintained, but they are useless If the flsh are not permitted to ascend to the spawning- grounds. Hence, there must be some limit to the right to engage in Ash Ing on the river, not only as to time, -but as to place. I would limit 'the right to take flsh for commercial purposes, or ratber by appliances excepting- spear, hook and line, to tidewater. As stated, there must be some limit and the fish are at their bes while in tide water. and after leav tidewater they are near the first spawn ing grounds. That portion of the river In which Ashing is permitted for commercial purposes should be laid off in districts ol not to exceed 12 miles In width, and Ash ing sho'uld be prohibited for S4 hours on each successively, beginning at the first or lower district, thus- assuring some of the flsh an opportunity to ascend to the spawning grounds. I am also of the opinion that fishing -should be prohibited below Sand Island at all times. These regulations and their strict ob- ser'vance, with ample appropriations to maintain' and operate the hatcheries, will Insure aji abundance or fish In the river for all future time. A few years, ago salmon were almost exterminated In the Sacramento River. - Closed seasons were provided for by law and their observance strictly enforced, hatcheries were estab lished and I am advised by the United States Commissioner of Fish and Fish eries that today there are more salmon In the Sacramento River than ever before in its history. It will be argued, of course, that the limitation I propose will be an injustice to owners or canneries above tidewater, That it will work something of a hard ship on them I admit, but the burden im posed on them will not be great after all. Cannery buildings, we all Know, are cheap affairs and machinery can be easily re moved. There are numerous cannery sites ""below the head of tidewater and there is plenty of. room for all who are engaged in the salmon-packing business to prose - cute their business there. This is a mat ter that requires prompt and energetic treatment if we are to save the Industry, It is worth savingr. C. W. FULTON. Htockmen.

Criticise Forest Reserve Rules. The report of the committee on jesolu- j tlons commends the general policy of the Oovernmcnt In conserving the forests, but advises remedying the adminlstra- ' lion of the rules In many instances. The creation of forest reserves In regions where there are no forests and none can foe created, thereby withdrawing good gracing hind, is protested against. A committee of "Western stockmen is asked to meet the lind Commissioner in the near future to urge the deferring, of Government control of the public domain until the forest reserve policy is more onnttely settled and to discuss the fairest way of treating clashing interests , an tne puniic domain. Tbft Kosont fee charged for grazing vhecp on forest reserves is declared to bo exonsxlve, belnR greater in proportion o food consumed than that of cattle. An equable division of forest reserve gras- ingr ground between sheep and cattle Is dpniandrrt. with allotted districts for dif ferent cluases of stoclc where practicable. Ma ml Pnt on Wool TarltT, The present Import duties' on wool. woolen fabrlra. hldos, meat and meat animals Is unqualifiedly indorsed and emphatic opposition is voiced to any legislation tending t,o disturb present conditions in tne wool ana live stock in dustry of the United States. m The committee asks that a committee of livestock men be appointed 'to con- fer with a committee of railroad men ,and devise means for better car ser vice; that the two committees choose a committee from their number to meet with the Interstate Commerce Oomm Ission to discuss the establish ment of rates and other arrangements between the stockmen and the roads. The. Bureau of Animal Industry Is asked to place men In the field to see that stock In transit Is furnished with proper feed and water, and that all yards not suitable for the unloading of sheep are condemned.
