Feb. 21, 1001. Today's joint ballot for senator re sulted as follows : Gorbett, 114; Inmau, 2fi; Williams, 22; Hermann,?: Bennett, I. FULTON ON FISH-WHEELS. ClHtaoji'H Senator Seems to Think the lllKht to ditch Salmon In the Col umbia In Iteawrvml by tlm A I -mighty for C!iitopers, Salem, Feb. 21, 1001. When the salmon protection bill came up for discussion in the senate yesterday afternoon, President Fulton, in support of nn amendment which provided for the including of the Columbia in tlie list of Oregon rivers on which fish-wheels und fish-traps were to be prohibited, made the following remarks: "It seoiiiB to me thnt the people of Oregon cannot tolerate this wholesale destruction of a great industry. A few years ago 000,000 cases of salmon were packed in the Columbia river packing houses, und something like $2,000,000 was paid out to the working men of the state for their labors. It was the same to Oregon as a gold mine right at our very door. Is there another industry to be compared to it? Tlie fish-wheels at the dalles are so set that salmon can not pass to the natural spawning grounds above. It is thus impossible to supply those grounds with spawn Last year only 250,000 cases were secured. "The industry gives employment to be tween S000 and 4000 men on the Colum bia, 1510 licenses being tesued in the state of Oregon alone, and probably as many more in Washington. Twelve thousand people are thus dependent for their livelihood upon this industry. The business has fallen of!', and if present conditions continue only a few years will elapse before the time will arrive when no salmon will be found in the market. "They say if we prohibit fish-traps and fldh-wlfeels we will destroy an im mense capital which has been invested in this business. Now the wheels cost $2000 each, and huvo paid fpr themselves over und over und over og'aiu at tho ex pense of an industry which they are de stroying. Shall we turn this river over to men who will ijirepoil its commercial importance? Are we here to protect the rights of the public? I stand here pleading for the commerce of Oregon; I stand here in the interests of one of the finest food fishes iu the world. Will you h"lp protect this industry, or will you help destroy it? Those wheels, of which I have spoken particularly those at the dalles stand right across a grand highway, which has been placed by the I hand of the most high God for the benu- lit of His people. "California does not allow fixed appli ances in iur rivers. Biltish Columbia! has prohibited these tr.tps and flsii-1 wheels. Washingt n also has made a similar prohibition in all her rivers ex-1 cent the Collinihiu. The nennl.i (if I ' yt--- , 1 Washington do not know of any other waterway except he Sound.
