There arc other reforms .just as ncccssarv lo the Rof'iie river to its old posit in America, mid those arc: I. The establishment of a dead line at tidewater, bar ring commercial fishing above. '2. The establishment of a closed season for sleclhcad i'.nd trout during t lie sjia wiling' months of the winter. :i. The screening of irrigation ditches to prevent the waste of more fish than can be turned out by hatcheries. The (iiautity of fish taken in the upper river commer cially docs not justify ihe continuance of fishing. .More over, after the salmon leave salt water they lose in quality. Xo stream can expect to maintain its supply of fish with the number of anglers constantly increasing and the taking of spawning fish sanctioned. The trout need a closed season for propagation just as much as the salni'.n. Owners of ditches have signified their willingness io screen the conduits, and orders for the screens have been placed for six niont lis and yet; no screens furnished. The. screens were to have been made by the convicts, which, however, arc on the verge of mutiny because kept in idle ness:. With these reforms in effect, there is every prospect that it will not be necessary to close the river entirely to commercial fishing, but lhal both the commercial fisher men of the lower stream and the anglers of the upper river will each secure fish. A MARKED 'TIIERI' is a marked contrast he i, ween the way Mr. A Strahorn projects a railroad and the Medford method. ' Mr. Strahorn, as an expert, first studies the country thoroughly and ascertains just what tonnage can be devel oped whet her or not a railroad would pay. Then he spends a year or two surveying routes to secure the best location and ascertain the cost lo a dollar. Then he secures wliat subsidies he can and other local assistance, none of which is payable until the railroad is actually constructed. With the route selected, the cost ascertained, the local aid provided and rights of way secured, Mr. Strahorn pre sents his proposition to capital. Medford, on the other hand, does not ascertain ton nage, does not survey a route, does not bother about rights of way, does not waste time in estimates of cost or receiv ing local assistance, but blindly votes sjWt )(),()()() for a rail road, go somewhere, not even the mileage known. The proposition is put op to capitalists in the shape of bonds to buy, wit hout being hampered by any details. What the State Editors Say of Medford Tho convention was a rnro suc cess.
