Tne remonstrance tu;ainst the salmon
bi i ot the roitituut ootini oi trade was
Jien read, and on motion was unani
mou'y auopted and signed by over uOO
members p.esept.
ReiuonstrxmcE,
To ihc JTo.ioivrh'c Senate and House of
Representatives of the United States
of America in Congress usscmblccl:
The undersigned, your petitioners,
citizens of the Cined Su'tes and of the
sitile of Oregon, or of Washington terri
tory, do most lespectailly but earnestly
protest and renioiisuate against the en-
:u tinent by your honorable bodies of two
cer.ain bilis'or Measures, recommended
by the biaid of tr'de r some salmon
fishing association of Portland, Oregon.
One of which measures providing for
all fishermen and boats engaged in fish
ing salmon on the Columbia river to
be licensed at an expense of five or ten
dollars each, for each season; and the
other measure providing for certain
sized meshes of nets and. seins to be
usad; Tor no fishing io be done at certain
pevioi's, and limiting the fishing ground
to the Columbia river and tributaries
above a Hue across the rivtr from Smith's
point, near Astoria, to Scarborough point
near C'lnook, in Washington territory.
We do not know of, nor can we imag-
rc a plausible reason for prohibiting
salmon fishing below the said imagina
ry line, even to the mouth of the river,
or outside the river entirely, o.i the bar,
in the breakers, or beyond in the open
ocean. The lnilia.is, the lion. Hudson's
bay company their employes since

iw. mmii-i nf iho r-nhii ihm ri.r..f "ii-.ivn
alwtns listed on all the g.-otuid below
said line, above namtd. ivo.n the earliest
times of thei-settlement here.
The extent of good lishing ground be
low the sdid l:,ie a nl wUnin Hie limitc
of the Colum'jiti r.ver, is over l.lOsquare
miles am1 eub.-aces several good sta
tions that have been used for scores of
ye.v". The temptation to fishermen to
('riiu acioss the line when hauling ii
their nets iu the usual i.ia iner; and I o
unavoidtible necessity of t . i "ting acr
it and taking salmon bc'ow it, when, o,i
attempting to tal.e in their nets as tley
near the line, ith a five or eight knot,
tide riiuning- t-'ey find tneir nets e.itan
gled, or f"i': vishdr uAiOod, snags, stur
geon, sens, sea lions, etc.. which are of
irequent occer.ence wih result in in
numerable violations of the law aud con
sequent proseee.ions.
"No sucn ii.niii-iarv line should be es
IIIV i'lUIH-I 9 VV -' AA..V& W
tablished, there or elsewhere, across the
lhcr, with penalties roi lislpng below it.
Jt is well known that the salmon a.ie in
thebest. condition for immediate con
sumption or for pieseivition when Uiey
first a- i ive in the river j .o n the ocean ;
and the fish heretofoiecat'ghi upon tlrs
very prohibited ground Coy tfe said
boaid of it-tule bill) and a- the station
just ac the line, on boLi sides of it,
"Chinook," are famoi s hc world over as
the very best of fish (t e '-Chinook sal
mon)."
So, another clause in the said bill,
which pi oh ib? is fishing in the month o.
Ap-il, is an unnecessary and unjrsb re
striction. Not many sa'mon come in
mat month, aud only a portion of them
arc caught, as they ri'n in tne deepest
water and are very hy; but they are
usually the fattest and besc fish of the
season. They are three months in ad
vance of the spawning season and the
few that can be caugnc will not decreae
tjie an.iual salmoa supply in the river.
Without better infoi nation relative to
what is necessary to be done in order to
keep up the annual srpply of salmon in
the CoUunbia river it may be best io pro
hibit fishing in the months of August
and September of each year, and such
prohibition (especially if five or six days
of the last ot July be added to the nro-hibited-tsrm),
will be amply sufficient to
ensure enough of the spawning fish in
the upper waters of the i iver, withou
prohibiting fishing iu AniW.
The.i.e of meshes for the seine or
drag net, as.prescribed in the said board
of trade bill, is too large, so large that
such seins would be almost wortliless.
The meshes of such nets might be as
small as five inches f jrom corner to cor
ner diagonally when extended. The size
of meshes of the pjjl net, to-wit; eight
and one-fourth inches diagonally across
when extended, is about right, as named
in said board ot tracie bill.
The most objectionable feature of the
first named bill or measure, is ttuit which
provmes lor an nsnermen anc. an ooatS
engaged in fishing for salmoa in the
Coluaibia rivei, io be licensed at an ex
pense of five Oi ten dollars, or more, to
each mm and to each boac
Theideaof requivlig a fisherman to
pay for a license for himself and for an
other for his boat and another still ?Oi
his net, is to say the least of L, prepos
terous. Sca.celv aoolher occi.. ;on
can be named as labo ious, a hazaidous,
or as urcertain in it results as that of t
fisherman on tie lower Columbia r'-ver.
With, greater reason mih- the sbovel
ers, the graders aad longshoremen of
our cities, or the co.il miners or the lum
bermen, or co n.no l farmers, be licensed
to puisue their seveial avocations.
The excuse oifced, that of riising
money with which to p.iy the expense of
propagating the salmon, so as io keep
. up tne annual supply, is a very poor one,
especially as tie burden of taxation
would fall very unequrlly mon the per
sons taxed; causing tl'ose tne let-stable
and those entirely unable, to pay as
much as the mot prosperous.
Jf a revenue for proJe?tin and piopa
gating the fish is required, a rea-onab'e
and sensible mode oe raisirg it would
be taxing all the salmon erred 'ireseiv
ed or packed, after it is so erred, pre
sented a.id packed and. we would rec
ommend a slight tax for that purpose,
levied in that man ler, and m be collec
ted by the government officers already
existing in uie districts boidering upon
the Columbia river.
We submit herewith a plan of a b;ll
or measure for raising a revenue for the
purposes above named a
ing to some extent He
and for legulat
salmon fishing
business on the Coli'inbhi river and trib
utaries, which we repicn.ully request
your honorable bodies to enact as a law.
(or something better adt.pced to the case)
in lieu of t.ie said two mer uires or bills
proposed by the bo.-rd of trade or Sal
mon fishing association of Portland, On -gon,
and, as in duty bound, we will ever
pray.
