SALMON AT THE RAY DAM Fish Now Going Vp the River bv the Thousand. A representative of tho Med ford Mail visited the Kay dam last Thurs day evening for the purposo of ascer taining the exact condition of affairs as appertains to fish passing the big dam. Men were busily engaged iu constructing a rack across the river, nearly oppsitu tho fish ladder. The object of this rack is to prevent the fish from passing up the river to the dam and past the ladder aud it suruly will do the work for which it is intended aud the fish ought to have no trouble iu passing the dam by way of this ladder. There are a great many fish lying just below the dam which are, of course, unable to get over, but these, Dr. Ray says, he will take from the river with it seine and place them in the water again above tho dam. Ho is also contemplating tho construction of a fish way right at the dam. which will, without a doubt, give passage for all fish that do not get up over the regularly established fish way. There were tons and toua of fish iu the river last week endeavoring to get over the dam. These, ranged iu size from six inches to four fnot and tho water was black with them in fact so thick were they that they were wedged iu iu groat piles all struggling to go op tho river Mail.
