The BAYLOR SURVEY. |.
A Bill Will Be introduced to
Break 1t and Rent
Oyster Beds.

The oyster question, which has played
an Important part In the discussions OF
the General Assembly for many years.
promises to become a live issue before
the session is many days older.
A bill has been prepared and will soon
be presented in the House proposing to
break what is known as the Baylor
survey, and to rent out all the depicted
oyster grounds held by the Common
wealth to the nighest bidder. This will
practically abolish the Baylor survey.
The bill will be offered In few days
by Mr. E. C. Jordan. OF Frederick. one
cf the most Influential members OF the
House. He has given much Thought ana
careful study to the oyster problem and
for the past four or five months has
devoted himself to mastery of the gues-
ton and the defects OF the present sys-
tenn. The result of his study will be the
bill which, it is believed will have the
effect of checking the rapid depletion of
the States oyster grounds. This deple-
lion would. hguratively. kill the goose
that lays the golden egg. and the legisla-
ton proposed is. therefore. ultimately to
the benefit of the oyster dredgers them
selves.
The Baylor survey marks out what are
known as the natural oyster rocks and
shoals OF the State. whereon any one
may dTsdSe oysters III SEASON Simply
by paying the tax required. He Is re-
quired under the law to throw back into
the water all the small or seed oysters IN
order that the future supply may not
be depleted. 1t will be shown that through
falling to thus keep up the supply OF SEED
oysters and dredging too deep. the oyster
bottoms are in many cases becoming par
rem and depleted.
The measure to be offered by Mr.. Jor-
dan will. 1t is said. have practically the
solid support Of the members from the
sections of the State other than Tidewater
and those from that geographical division
will be divided on the question. many
favoring the plan. From all parts OF the
oyster region there have come reports
Of the annually growing scarcity OF seed
oysters and the gradual diminution OF
the catch Many of the more far-seeins
oystermen realize the Importance OF some
such action as that proposed. The bill
will, nevertheless. meet with strong oppo-
sition when it comes up. and there Will
be many oystermen here when the tight
opens. 1t is the opinion Of we'll Informed
members that the bill will! pass finally.

LTNCHBuRG, VA, November 24.-(Spc-

from the Hill City politely proffered his

to follow with the baby, which, having
committed himself. he had to do. Slowly
he descended the car steps with his pre-
cious burden and carefully adjusted its
coverings so that no rude blast should
chill its innocent face. The lady mean
while had been met by friends and was
SO busy exchanging greetings that she
seemed to have forgotten all about the
baby and its new protector until Just as
the train pulled out she relieved him of
his bundle of humanity. Then it was too
late: the train had gone. and as a result
the Lynchburg travelling man has vowed
to be more careful as to making new ac,
quaintances on the train hereafter.
