i3TiI, uN TlIE FISHERY BILL.
From The KerRebcc Journal
Mr.. SPEAKER / trust the minority r.
por, will not prevail. The bill l. not ia
the interest OF any class OF the shore fish
ermen. a. Is claimed. but on the contrary
will be most di-a.trous to them The
shore fishermen do not Ia any considerable
numbers call tor this act. They kno. and
appreciate the porgie sshing a. one OF the
most important iudu-tTic, OF the STATE :,
yielding large income from the mex
naustlble OCEAN. and giving employment
to great numbers of our people along the
coast OF our State. AMI II they should come
here aud speak for themselves. doubt no,
thru -urrsif,ss, remain undl.tGrbed" II
you prohibit them from ii,hiu. Ia our bays
a. j. proposed BY this bill. the result il,
.r- i~Iatiun IA the intcr.st OF other state.
where Tree fishing i, now allowed. ana
against our own citizens who have invest
cd their capital 10 the business, aud are
looking 20 II iOr their future prosperity.
IL seems 10 me unwise az thl- time, when
every branch OF INDUSTRY i suffering under
basinr,s depression, 10 pas. such laws a.
will drive this industry from the state. or
Ia any way cripple Il.
Now, sir, until there shall be some we'll
defined policy adopted BY other State, or
the General Government looking TO tie
protection of our sea coast fisheries | Am
cOniilcnt that any attempts OF our oso
state ~ regulate this business will be Al.
tended With bot poor success. Our state
i one of the great fishery states. our fish
ermen are ranked - the mos, enterpri-iny
and successful fishermen la the world
They have redeemed vas, amount of
wealth from the ocean. aud there i, no
conflict amongst the different c!as.e.
There Is no immediate necessity Tor lepl.
lation concerning their business. aud there
can be no favorable result from the pas
sage OF this bill.
Let them leave the matter a. they want
it len, and not put such powerful ins,ru.
ment this will be into the hand, OF any
III disposed person for their annoyance.
| myself have been one OF the poor tsh
erinen. am poor now. and my sympathy is
for them. | have witnessed the contention
and bitterness OF feeling occ asioned by
legislation Ia the matter, and have never
yet seen any good result from it. but to
the contrary its only effect has been TO
prevent many from engaging in the BUSH
ness aud many 10 abandon 1t,
since the repeal Of those acts there has
been quiet and good feeling among them.
aud good degree of prosperity has at
tended them. Now, revive these law, and
you revive all the old bitterness again. for
this bill will exclude one class from most
OF our fishing grounds. where they have
operated many years undisturDed where
the fish have never failed them, and
there Is DO certainty that they ever
will. Let US leave them alone, sud they
will take care OF themselves.
