MURDER The knife of the Salem In
dependent generally cuts. Even on the
suo oject Of fishing it slashes as follows
Il is not sufficient that they have caught
all ths trout they can use, bus they must
kill more than the other fellow. 1t is
like gambling game aud they fish for
stakes. The winner is the man whose
pile OF dead fish is the largest. This is
not sport, it is murder, and q few years
more and fish will be 30 scarce that leg
itimate sport will be hard TO find.
The Journal goes the Independent one
and says: The Albany DEMocRAr tells
of a man taking S25 trout the other after
noon in mountain stream OF Linn
county. Such person is hog. He Is
murderer in the name of sport. He
could have no possible use for the fish.
He could not even carry them away. His
family could rot use them. dozen
trout Will make n meal for any ordinary
family. He merely killed the speckled
beauties for the name of it. A law
should be passed to make it peniien,iary
offense.
