Kelley, a fisherman from Cascade Locks has been in Portland, trying to persuade Fish Commissioner McGuire to place the limit at which no sturgeon should be taken below 150 pounds. ''Last season," said Mr. Kelley, "I caught a number of sturgeon in my wheel weighing from 300 to 500 pounds. Tbe 500-pounders brought me $40 each, and I do not like tbe idea of throwing such a fish back. Besides it is no easy job to dump a 600-pound fish overboard. It simply takes a derrick, the same as it would to get a beef out of tbe wheel. "There is no sale for small sturgeons weighing 100 and 200, but the big ones are valuable." Mr. McGuire explained to him that the big ones were more valuable to fish culture than to a fish dealer, as one 500 pounder meant 1,000,000 eggs. The sturgeon of the Columbia are becoming very scarce, and Mr. McGufre thinks if stringent protective' measures are not passed, the big fish will soon be a stranger in tbe waters of this state.
