A petition was being circulated to day by Dr. Loughrldge, the paper be ing addressed to Governor West, ask ing that official to Pardou Frank Harper and A. B. Pratt, the former being a minor, who were fined 50 In Justice Holman's court on a charge j of fishing iu the Rogue with a foul hook. Game Warden Sandry hap pened along near the bank of the Rogue In the region of the Golden Drift dam and found the man and boy using a bfg steel hook tied to a line, which they were lowering Into the wator In an endeavor to snare a fish for food. The man Is destitute and the petition recites Hiat h'e had snared no fish, even If he did he was seeking food for his family, and that to carry out the sentence would ttiean that the two would lay In jail, much to the suffering of the already desti tute family. One of the signers to the petition is Justice Holman, who, under the law, had no alternative but to lnlpose the fine. In speaking of the matter today Dr. Loughrldge said: "I am In favor of a state law closing the Columbia river to commercial fishing. Maybe that would teach those people what a hardship has been Imposed on us here. This man, poverty-stricken, Is not allowed under the law to catch a fish as food for his family. It Is no answer to say he used the kln of hook he did: the fact of the mat ter Is he needed food, and of the mil lions of SalmonIn the river he is not allowed to take one unless he can Inveigle It on a little hook. A hook Is a hook, and I can see no difference, especially when a family Is looking for the father to take to them some food."
