river to their natural spawning riffles. Protests from southern
Oregon to Senator George E. Chamberlain produced their effect
within the week. No other explanation is offered of the wired
command which tersely bade the abandonment of the racks
The senior senator worked swiftly and to a purpose, and his ser-
vice should not lightly be forgotten. By the installing of the
racks at Grants Pass, immediately after the closing of the com
mercial season, the upper river was to be deprived of the run,
both salmon and steelhead. No valid reason exists w'hy the fish
should not be taken at Elk creek, where angling will not be in
terfered wifh while the majority ol splendid spawning riffles
will be occupied as nature intended.
