ARMSTRONG & WOLFF
Tor the first time in the history of
Rogue River . fishing an amicable
1 adjustment of differences -which have
been built up b the mistaken preju
dices of Josephine and Jackson
county sportsmen has been accom
plished -without loss of temper.
Hostilities were opened by e. gath
ering? together of representative men
of Gold Hill, Jackson county, in tho
Person ot, Martin Bowers and M. 8.
Johnson, two of the premier sports
men of the . northern end . of the
county, who are widely known
throughout the state, Mr. IVilford Al
ien, president of the JoBephine coun
ty; Irrigation System, who resides at
Grants , pass,' ' whose dam across
Kogue river at Savage rapids has
been the seat of contention, Messrs.
William R. Coleman and Pat Daily,
local district game and fish wardens,
and the following members of the
Crater Lake Rod and Gun club of
Jackson county: F. R. Davis, presi
dent; Sidney S. Smith, Frank S. Mil
ler, "Chick" Hawk and "Buckshot"
Simmons, Harris Janes, as well as
Claud Bardon, a commercial fisher
man of rants Pass. It is to be re
gretted that the time limit in ne
gotiating tho meeting did not permit
ot notice being gotten to Ashland in
time to secure representation from
that city, though the interests of
Ashland are identical with Medford
in this instance.
The gathering was In no sense an
official visit, but was merely called
losoiner lor me purpose of securing
a definite understanding of whatever
differences each party might advance
and a possible solution ot tho Teal in
the dissipation : o the imaginary
grievances, ..- . . ....
Since the erection of obstructions
in the river during times past, the re
tarding of the passage of fish through
tho fish ways as provided by the va
rious commercial interests in con
junction with .the game commission,
has been a bitter and long-drawn out
wrangle, each interest contending for
sorie real or fancied right infringed
tTpon by the others.
Since the removal ot the "Golden
Drift" dam three miles above Grants
Pass the greatest source of grumbl
ing has emanated from conditions at
the new "Savage Rapids" dam erect
ed by the Grants Pass irrigation dis
trict at an expense of tSOO.OOO, with
a fishway on the north side of the
dam only. The fishway is now con
ceded by the Hertford and Ashland
fishermen to be a very efficient one
with the exception of such times as
the changing conditions with respect
to Irrigation operations congest the
fish in the Tiver for periods of two or
three days.
The clamor has arisen each spring
from Medford and Ashland to the ef
fect that the adjustment of the open
ing of the gates In the dam has been
so purposely contrived as to preclude
the passage of the. fish, through the
ladder in this way. By the opening
of the gates in the dam about two
thirds of !he distance across the river
from the fish ladder, there was a
deep, eddy formed of "dead" water at
the location of the mouth of the fish
ladder through fish would not travel
to hunt up the entrance of the ladder
but would persistently fight the tur
bulent current In a vain effort to
climb a twenty-five foot dastt and
the consequent mangling- of the fish
upon hte rocks over which the- water
tumbled from the .lam foicing those
fibh not so mangled to drop fatthsr
down the river in the eddioi unfl!
such timo as they could reoupe.-ate
for another fruitless dash ove,- an
insurmountable obstruction. Herein
lies the suspicions of the fishermen
as to the la mess of the operators of
tnc irrigation yntGP.. Tho county
Hno between Jncl;sop nnd Josephine
counties runs diagonally throuBhvthe
dam. The directors of the Irrigation
system are Josephine county men.
The offended fishermen are Jackson
county sportsmen who are not com
mercial fishermen. Through the
holding of the fish below the dam
Josephine county fishermen have the
fish within six miles of their doors as
against twenty -six for MedTord fish
ermen and thirty-eight for Ashland;
the fish would be prevented from
passing up the river for spawning
purposes as -well; the tired and in
lured salmon are easy prey for
poachers who illegally take the fish
with gaff hooks and nets during the
midnight hours and peddlo them
commercially through channels dif
ficult for the officers to detect.
Upon the arrival of the party at
tho dain Mr. Wllord Allen very cour
teously explained the workings of the
dam to the assembled men and
listened attentively to tho stating of
the views of the Jackson county del
egation as to the relative adjustment
of the gates -with respect to the di
recting of the current through tho
stream with the object of the ellml
nation of the "dead" water eddy at
the mouth or Intake of tho fish led
der and the prevention of the fish
congregating In a dead pocket form
ed by the current within easy reach
of noachcra from the shore line ni
rectly below tho dam and next to the
Pacific Highway. At first glance
this seemed to the sportsmen to be
a matter which could bo easily ac
complished . by the gate tenders if
thev were inclined to h fair rather
than hoellle. Tbouxh Mr. Allen as
sured the party that the arrangement
of the- gates as then In operation was
the best that could be devised 0t
was a result of two years of constant
study and attention and could best bo
attested to beisuch by reason of tnc
scarcity of !ish below the oam.'yot
the aate tenders were directed by Mr.
Allen to lower the gate to suit the
ideas of the group, which required
a matter of some two hours and dan
ger of accident to the dam, thus dem
onstrating that the plan of operation
by the irrigation district is aa nearly
nerfoct as could be devised and is
satisfactory to tho Jackson county
snortsmen. and that km irrigation
district and game commission were in
good faith endeavoring to meet a bad
situation to the best of their aoimy
Being "bad" In the iwnw that any
obstruction in t Mmim J bad.
The Irrigation district nnd the
game commission will henceforth
find the sportsmen of Jackson county
helping rather than hindering them
and loud praise is now being ex
pressed toward Mr. Ailen and his
courteous endeavor to assist n better
understanding between sportsmen
and lrrlgutlonlsts.
