Bounty Tor Seal Sralp*.
Chairman Kendall, of the fisheries
Committee of the Aatoria Progressive
Commercial Association, is circulating
a petition among the canners and those
most directly interested for subscrip
tions for a fund to be used On paving a
bounty of $1 each for seal scalps and
♦2.50 each for sea lion scalps.
The
fund is to be placed in the han is of the
secretary of the association and war
rants drawn against it by the fish com
missioner. Thia subscription list is
the result of an effort being made by
the association to exterminate one of
the greatest enemies to the fishing in
dustry. It is claimed that a sea lion
will devour four salmon every 24
hours, and as there are at least 2,500 of
these animals hovering about the m£ith
of the river, 10,000 fish or 4,000 cases,
representing about ♦13,360, are being
destroyed each day. The intention ol
the association is to have the la1
amended so as to set aside a portion <
the license munej^ ft® paying thit
bounty, but this cannot be done until
the next session of the legislature, and
in the meantime the funds are to b«
rQsed by subscription.

Six months ago the case was laid be-

Mr. Wachsmuth expects another car

in propagating them here, but de[©id!
