Abolition
Fish Trapa

and Is at the Hotel Butler.
1T is . very near-sighted policy that
would do away with fish traps" said he
yesterday About 80 per cent. Of the Pu-
get sound salmon catch Is by the traps
The remainder il caught by the gillnet men.
To abolish traps would practically ruin the
canning industry OF the Sound. for We
couldn't catch enough salmon TO keep the
canneries going. On the Columbia and the
Fraser rivers more fish can be caught by
nets. /; Is always SO in running streams
I'VE understand that the British Column
bia Gamers will have a strong lobby at the
coming legislature, as they had at the last
session. TO work agairs. traps on the
American side. We have been catching
great portion Of the salmon that spawn
in Fraser river. The run is through the
Strait of Fuca, through the islands and
on past the shore Of Whatcom county. The
salmon thus fall into our traps or are
caugh, by the gilinet men before they
reach the Fraser river. Why. fourteen can
neries on the Fraser river have failed this
year and many of them are coming over
10 the American side.
.''rhe best solution OF the difficulty Is that
proposed by the trap men. II Is to have
hatcheres sufficient 10 keep up the supply
of salmon. The trappers are willing TO
pay for these hatcheries by royalty on
their catch Is not that fair enough?
