THE SPORTSMEN'S FIGHT
THE Jackson county sportsmen nro up inarms over (lie
proposed abolition of the fish and game commission,
the diversion of license money into the general fund and
the proposed reopening of the Upper Rogue river to com
mercial fishing.
There were 0128 license holders in 101-1. If the pro
posed changes nre carried out there will not be half that
number this year. In fact, the irame and fish resources
are just beginning to receive proper attention and in a few
years will bring in as much monev to Oregon as they do to
some eastern states, besides furnishing the most healthful
and enjoyable recreation for the multitude.
The hunters and anglers who pay these licenses intend
to have something to Say about the disposition of the
license money, and to this end have inaugurated a state
wide cainpaign, including some seventy-odd clubs pledged
to united action.
In addition to this fight, the .Taekson county sportsmen
have the old fight to keep the commercial fishing hogs out
of the upper Rogue river, which is not in any sense a com
mercial fishing stream. For some ten years the anglers
have had a biennial fight and forced to keen renrcsenta-
tives at Salem. In 1910 they initiated a bill to close the
entire stream, which was carried by 1(5,000 majority
throughout the state.
"Vhile the bill was perhaps too drastic, in that it de
stroyed the real commercial fishing interests with, large
investments at the mouth of the river, there was no excuse
for reopening the upper river. In the legislature of 1911
a bill was passed reopening the stream," but promptly
vetoed by Governor West.
After a fight extending throughout the legislature the
session of 1913, a bill was passed opening the lower river
to fishing under stringent regulations, and permitting two
months' fishing season in a
Tins also was vetoed by Governor Y est, but passed over
his veto.
"When the river was reopened the commercial fisher
men from Oregon City at the close of their season at the
"Willamette falls at once came to Grants Pass for the
Rogue river fishing and half of the fishing since litis been
done by non-resideiits. The season of 1913 was fairlv
profitable, a total of some $9000 worth of fish taken. The
season of 1914 was a failure and fishing abandoned in the
middle of the season the catch being estimated at onlv
$3000.
Each succeeding season will probably result in failure.
In the course of a few years the fish will bo exterminated,
for the drifting gill nets, stretching from bank to bank,
clean the river of fish. And all for the sake of a few com
mercial fishing Iiogs whose interest the legislature is asked
to consider against the expressed wishes of the general
public.
The anglers of Jackson county are in the fight to win
and will stay with it to the lasteven if it takes a refer
endum or a second initiative bill. lit this their cause is
common with that of the "Willamette valley fishermen.
The sportsmen aro on their mettle, fighting for a just
cause, and have back of them the united support of the
communitv.
THE CITY
COUNCILMAN MEDYNSKI is agitating the building
of a town hall to supplement the present building,
long since outgrown.
Such a building, he estimates, can be erected at a cost
not to exceed $5000, the two side walls already being built.
The city already owns the site. This will provide suitable
ground-floor offices for the recorder, treasurer, water de
partment and other offices which the people visit monthly,
and provide space for the offices of the city engineer,
electrical inspector, etc., and enable a commodious town
hall for council meetings and public gatherings.
The need of larger quarters is apparent to all. For two
years outside rooms have had to be rented, and even the
council chamber appropriated for office use. As the fire
department grows, it also requires more space.
"While economy is the order of the dav, it can be car
ried too far, and it is a false economy that fails to provide
suitable office room in any line of business.
A new city hall should be viewed in the line of an in
vestment and a resourcv, an -enlarging of business facilities
to meet demands. Besides, Medford is the only city in the
valley without a commodious town hall.
By all means, let us have that town hall we need it.
