FIFTH YEAR.
MEDFORD, OREGON, SUNDAY, JANUARY 22, 1911.
No. 2G0.
CLASSIFIED
ROGUE RIVER AH6LERS STAND PAT
FOR FISH LAW PASSED BY PEOPLE
Letter Is Sent to Members of State
Legislature Protesting Against
Any Change Being Made In Law
Closing 'Rogue River.
Tlio following is a copy of a letter
sent members of the legislature Ijv
(lie Koguo Uivcr Fish Protective as as as
sociateon: Medford, Or., Jan. 20, 1011.
Dear Sir: IJy n majority of 2700
the people of Jackson county, and
by a majority of 17,000 the people
of the state of Oregon voted to close
Koguo river to fishing, except with
hook and line. This iB the outcome
of a 10-year's fight on the part of
flu people of the Hogue Hiver val
ley for recognition of their rights.
There is nothing to indicate that the
people of Oregon have changed their
minds. Certainly the people of the
Hogue River valley have not. We
understand an effort is being made
to nullify by legislation the ex
pressed wishes of an overwhelming
majority of the people, but cannot
believe it is seriously considered.
This association fathered the in
itiative measure now become a law,
and stands pat on its original con
tention. If the law works an injus
tice upon any one, the alleged vic
tims brought it upon themselves by
many years of abuse.
We respectfully ask you to op
pose any legislative action that will
in anywise modify or change this
law enacted by the people of the
state of Oregoli. Very truly yours,
