WHILE flu re is necessarily sonic disappointment ovei'
the passage oi' the Pierce bill, modifying the ini
tiative bill closing the Rogue river to commercial fishing,
concessions enough were obtained to insure ample protec
tion i'or sleelhead and trout. All of the original conten
tions demanded were secured. The bill on final passage
differs altogether from that first submitted.
The closed season at the mouth of the river lor salmon
fishing has been extended from of days to six and a half
months, and on Ihe upper river to eight months. Drag
seines are forbidden, and only nets oi eight-inch minimum
mesh can be used. Sale of salmon during closed period
is forbidden.
(latching of steelhead and rroul, except with hook and
line, is forbidden on the Rogue and its tributaries, and
sale, or .sinpment lor tne purpose 01 saie, is aiso lorouuien.
The commercial fishing limit is removed from the Jack
son county line, three miles down stream to the steel bridge
at Grants Pass, thus eliminating the Anient dam. Most
of the catch of previous years at (I rants Pass has been
takeu in the strip of water now closed and taken with drag
seines, now lorbidden.
A hard fight was made by Medford representatives at
the legislature against the Pierce bill, but it was passed
because a majority of the members of the legislature were
convinced (hat the bill remedied an injustice done to a
large industry and many dependents and at the same time

WHY NOT CALL IT S. P. & M.?
TJ110 Hill lines, comprising the Nor
Trunk, the Pacific Ac Eastern a

tric and United Railroads are about to be consolidated
in one great company.
The iMail Tribune respectfully offers the suggestion
that this great railroad, extending from Spokane to Port
land and through the WVillamette valley as well as cen
tral Oregon, to iMedford, be named the Spokane, Portland
and Aledford, for short, the S. P. and Al., or better yet,
the Medford.
Such a name is not only euphonious and appropriate,
but describes in three words the geographical location of
the railroad.
