United States Seuate,
Washington, D. C.
S i r : The Department realizes the importance of the various questions affecting the salmon fishery
in the Columbia River brought up in your letter o f the lKth ultimo, and has taken this opportunity to make
a thorough investigation o f the matter. There can lie no question that the status of the fishery is unsatis
factory, and that under existing conditions the trend may be expected to lie steadily downward, with the
result that in a comparatively few years the run of salmon in that stream will be redu *ed to such a degree
that thousands of fishermen may be thrown out of employment and much capital rendered idle. The Fed
eral Government is without any jurisdiction whatever in the premises, and the duty of conserving the sal"
mon supplv in the Columbia devolves on the States of ( )regon, Washington and Idaho; but this Depart"
ment has lieen charged by Congress with important fish-cultural operations in the Columbia basin, and has
felt impelled from time to time to direct attention to the necessity for giving adequate protection to the var
ious species o f salmon frequenting that stream. The Department is convinced that the run o f salmon in
the Columbia can lie amply maintained for an indefinite period if artificial propagation is supplemented by
rational protection: but artificial propagation alone cannot cope with the situation, and as a matter o f fact
the recent experience of the Department has shown that its beneficent labors are rendered almost futile by
the failure of the States to appreciate this fact.
The Department sees no reason for advocating the elimination of fish wheels from the river, as there
is no evidence to show that this form of apparatus is particularly destructive to salmon. A condition that
is specially favorable for the passage of salmon— namely, very high water— renders the wheels unservicea
ble and on the orher hand, periods of very low water, when the fish are much restricted in their movements,
ars also unfavorable for the wheels. During the past two or three seasons the catch o f salmon by wheels
has !>een comparatively small: but even if it were very large it would be a fact of no special significance in
the present connection.
The Columbia river is, however, made to yield a quantity of salmon far greater than regard for the
future supply permits, and the drain is yearly becoming more serious. No one familiar with the situation
can fail to appreciate the menace to the perpetuity o f the industry that is furnished by the concentration
of a tremendous amount o f fixed and floating apparatus of capture in and near the mouth o f the river.
This apparatus comprises about 4(K) pound nets or traps, over 80 long sweep seines, and more than 2 ,2 00
gill nets, the last having an aggregate approximate length of over 570 miles: and these appliances capture
more than 05 per cent o f the fish taken in the Oregon and Washington waters o f the river, the figures for
1004 being nearly 34,000,000 pounds, or OH.7 per cent o f the total yield. Under such conditions, it is self-
evident that but comparatively few fish are permitted to reach the upper waters where the spawning
grounds are located.
The details of the measures necessary to place the samoti iudustsy o f the Columbia river on a per
manent basis cannot be elaborated by the Department at this time, but in general it may be said that there
should be (1 ) a restriction on the amount of apparatus employed in a given section; (2 ) an adequate
weekly close season covering possibly two days at first, but reduced later if the circumstances warrant it;
(3 ) an anuual close season, preferably at the beginning of the salmon run, and (4 ) joint arrangements
between the States, so that protective measures may be harmonious. Respectfully yours,
(Signed) OSCAR S. STRA TS,
Secretary.
