To the Editor of The Journal Perhaps one of the most vital questions which presents i Itself to the sportsman in the John Day river region In Oregon, Is the way ; the mule deer are being slaughtered j by ranchers in the winter time when the snow Is deep. This has been going on ever since the valleys, along the different branches of the river were first set tled by white men, without interfer ence, i ! The mule deer, so called because of i their large ears, are the largest and best deer on the continent. The bucks', often weighing 260 pounds dressed, the first of October, and It Is not uncommon to see sped- mens with a 30-Inch spread with six, j eight and ten points on a side. Twenty years ago there were many 1 thousands of these grand deer, sum mering in the blue mountains at the head of the different branches of the river. But they will not winter in ' this high altitude, and so had to eml- : grate to the lower levels each winter. ' This is the -time the ranchers, along the different trails, get in their deadly . work on the unprotected deer. 1 On one occasion it was reported when too late, that one wood chopper near Watterman flat, had 13 carcasses in his cabin at one time in January. 1915. Fish Are Disappearing. The same can be said about the steelhead salmon that run up the John Day river In September each year to spawn. Twelve years ago the writer can ' recall seeing thousands of these fine salmon going up over the riffles, i But It is not so any more. When the i irrigating dam was built six miles ' above Spray, there was no proper i ladder built. The one that Is thero ; only enables the ranchers living along the river to take turn about standing ) 1th a gig, to hook every fish that jumps into it. Each September and October for several years after the dam was built, the salmon would congregate in great numbers against the dam. until the water would be fairly alive with them, and there they 'would stay, and not being able to reach suitable bars to spawn on, the whole crop of eggs would be lost, and as a conse quence, when there are no young fry to leave the river, no matured fish ever comes back. Where are the authorities? What Statistics Show. It is stated In the Oregon Sports- j man. January. 1916, number, that ' $126,576.06 was spent in Oregon in 1915 for fish and game protection and propagation. j It is also stated in the same maga- ' sine that not any of this large sum of money was spent in any part of the John Day country. In all this vast territory their is not a paid game warden residing. I know the position of game warden had been offered to parties In Condon and other pjaces, by the state game warden, but the provision was that the parties must act without compensation. None would accept the position on these terms. i The county clerk of Gilliam county I for th year of 1915, collected for I fishing and hunting licenses, the sum ' of $440, and I presume that Wheeler , and Grant counties each collected ; this much or more, and sent in to the commission. But not any of it ever came back to protect our game. If all this county was well patrolled with well paid garde wardens, so that all those who bunt and fish would buy their licenses Instead of getting along without them, .aere would be enough more money collected this way to pay the wardens.
