BOARD CAN HAVE A CLERK.
Auditor Marye VIII Pay This EN-
nInYee nf Honrd of EiHheries.


At a meeting of the State Board OF
Fisheries here yesterday the question OF
the board employing a clerk 10 keep tne
office at Hampton open, or rather OF the
Auditor of State paying such an oniclal
the board having employed such AT its
first meeting last April, was discussed,
and resulted in Auditor Marye reconsid-
ering his former decision that he mac no
authority TO pay him.
The clerk will be paid from State FUNDS,
It being realized by Auditor Marye that
Ii IS necessary that the Office be kept open
all the time, and that 1t cannot be done
If the president and secretary. who are
virtually the chief and assistant oyster
inspectors. respectively. discharge their
duties properly, as they are required to
be on the water great deal or the time,
often many miles from Hampton.
The board also discussed the question
of the propagation of fish. Consideration
of this subject was forced upon the board
by the fishermen, who claim that since
the last Legislature has imposed tax on
nets IL is the duty Of the State TO in
crease the fish supply. The reasonable
ness of such a demand is recognized, and
steps will be taken to foster the propaga-
ton of food fishes in the Chesapeake and
its tributaries.
The reports of President Fletcher and
Secretary Miller showed that the new
fish and oyster law passed last year is
proving eminently satisfactory. The
State Is deriving revenue from sources
hitherto unknown, and FISH and oysters
are receiving protection in sections where
thew never before received II. The board
was highly gratitied at the showing:
There were present at the meeting of
the board President Fletcher, Secretary
Miller, and Messrs. Petit, OF Fluvanna.
and Curtis, OF Richmond, members Of the
board.
