Cal, February &C. 1850, and signed by Samuel ~
Norton, Secretary Of the Salmon Fishermens Asso-
citation of San Francisco, permit to say that there
is no dam other obstruction to the salmon across
the McCoud river nor has there been since the lat
ter part OF September of last year that the agent
of the United States has never had dam across the
river except between the middle of July and the
middle OF September OF any year that the great
body OF spawning salmon have assembled the river
and sought their spawning ground before the dam
OF the United States agent is placed in the river
that the comparatively few salmon which are
checked in their course by the dam nearly all
caught, and their spawn saved and artifcially
Matched; that every year two million young
salmon are returned to the tributaries of
the Sacramento river; that this number is proba-
bly, 1tty times as gSedt as the number of young fish
that would be produced naturally by the salmon
themselves that are stopped by the dam, and twice
as q eat as the number that would be produced by
all the parent salmon in the river, surprising that
none were stopped by any obstruction that the re-
suit of this method of securing the parent salmon
by the obstruction employed is not only not de-
structlye, but is vastly beneficial to the fl h in the
river, since it is the means by which such great
quantity of young salmon can be annually returned
to the river that finally the prime and sole OBJ
ject Of the United States station on the McCloud
river is to increase and multiply salmon and not to
diminish them, and any of action that tends
to reduce the numbers of the salmon would not be

SACRAMENTO sALMoN.

The continuance of an abundant supply of
salmon in our rivers has so great an interest
to the public and also to the fishermen who
take them, that everything relating to the
habits of this fish, to the efforts made for its
perpetuation, and to all causes of danger that
might result in its extinction or in lessening
the normal quantity is of Importance. State.
ments have been insustriously circulated
among the fishermen of the Sacramento to the
effect that the United States Government, at
its acknowledging establishment on the Nc
Cloud river, kept in continuous operation
dam across the stream which prevented the
gravid fish from reaching their spawning
beds. As the McCloud contains the most
extensive spawning grounds of all the rivers
in the State, if these statements were true,
the Government, while protesting to be aid
ing in increasing the number of fish, would
in fact be engaged in a work for their speedy
and certain extinction. The following CORE
spondenee has been sent to the RECORD
UNION for publication, with the hope of cor
recting these false statements:
Rio VISTA (Solano coy, February &c, 1880.
Professor Spencer F. Baird, United States Com
missioner Fish and Fisheries-Dear Sir: In the
interest of considerable body of people who reside
at and in the immediate vicinity of the chief salmon
fisheries of this State and who are deeply interested
in the perpetuation Of the salmon stock in our rivers
unimpaired, beg leave to subm the following:
IL is understood that near the mouth of the Me-
Cloud river-at the fsh-hatchery maintained by the
United States and approved under the auspices of
the Fishery Commissioners of this S:ate-a dam
constructed by the agent OF the United States has
been and still is in existence that prevents the
passage of any adult salmon other than the smaller
salmonoid of our waters that the salmon of COM
merce (QuinnaD is wholly shut out from its favorite
spawning grounds that extend more than forty miles
above this dam that although this dam furnishes
the easiest means OF capturing many salmon as the
hatchery may need nevertheless the method Is faulty
and vastly destructive to the sh-in this that great
numbers not needed arrested and destroyed by
delay and in their efforts to force orsurmount the
obstruction. The McCloud is in thinly-settled
locality, not conveniently accessible to u.s. and as no
information has reached us through the report of
the State Commissioners or other official source on
this matter, we respectfully inquire if such dam
is in existence. We know there tcds such dam,
and fear that it still remains and ii So desire to
protest against il in the most decided terms With
great respect, your ob.dient servant
