Mr. James Allen. OF Hustonville
was with III Monday, getting sgners t.
an organization known rs the Fishing
Club. The people seemed to take hold
freely. The object of the club We AZ,
informed, il 10 stock our streams with
choice fish and also to protect the tinny
tribe by enforcing laws and also petit
ton for needed legislation on the subject
We believe 1t to be almost ~ much the
interest OF the people 10 protect the fish
from ruthless destruction as IL is to pro
tect the farmers sheep. The fish may
not fill as many wants ~ the sheep, bat
they are equally valuable as food. Will,
our laws are levelcd at the use OF dyna
mite, poison and other methods OF de
struction, We believe the injury done
them by running sawdu>t in many o
the streams by mill men is now dom.
more injury than anything else. While
the water is up, it may not do mucl
damage, yet when the streams get low
and sluggish, it simply tpoison, them
and drives them oil. II is not much ben
etit To- the mill men to clog our streams
with saWdust There is not force enough
IN Our streams - remove much of TIA
b dust out OF their way; it just poisons an,
drives oil the tish without beneiitin
anybody.
