FISH HOGS.

IT THE salmon does not become extinct within a few
= years and a valuable industry destroyed, it will be no
fault OF the fishermen who are doing their best to exter-
inmate the source Of their livelihood.
To protect the salmon and permit propagation, closed
seasons were established, and after years of litigation by
the very interests the laws were promulgated to protect,
their validity established. Then the fisherman resorted
to fishing at sea beyond the three mile limit, outside state
and federal jurisdiction. Laws to check this abuse by
forblddlng the sale of salmon thus caught during closed
season are now being contested in the federal supreme
court.
The rapacity Of fishermen knows no bounds. There
is probably no more short-sighted class. If there is a
sufficient supply of salmon in the stream to operate a
cannery the canneIies multiply and the fishermen in
crease until everlasting depletes the stream and destroys
the industry. Efforts for limitation and regulation are
hooted down as in the interest of monopoly. AS long as
there IS a salmon in the stream or in the sea--tonorroW
takes care of itself.
It is not only the commercial fisherman that are
rapacious, but alleged "sportsmen'' as we'll, who like to
print pictures proving themselves fish hogs. The
last Legislature passed a law establishing a closed
season for game fish over 10 inches in length during the
winter and spring months---and the Sports
men" are now flooding the fish and game commission
with petitions to nulify even this partial protection to
crafty their sWinish propensities.
"A good case in point comes in a petition from Ashland
"sportsmen" to reopen the Rogue to winter fishing for
spawning steelheads. These anglers keep a lobby at the
during sessions to make war upon the salmon
canneries at the mouth of the Rogue, which are forbidden
to take s~teelheads, but are unwilling themselves to give
the trout a chance to propogate--even though their own
annual slaughter OF s~teelheads on the spawning beds, and
not canneIy operators, are the main cause of the diminish
ing supply of trout.

MULTIPLYING THE TREATY.

THE reservations adopted by the senate, will in the
opinion OF the president, nullify the treaty, hence
there is little likelihood of a two-thirds vote for it's ratifi-
cation as amended. Should it be ratified. the president
will undoubtedly withdraw it, and thus accomplish it's re-
lection.
With the failure to ratify there will probably be some
KIND OF q compromise in which reservations acceptable to
the president be retained and the others dropped. In this
form, the treaty will either be ratified or become an issue
In the next national election.
The treaty of Versailles, including the covenant of
Lhe league OF nations, has now been ratified by Great

Washington, Nov. 17.-Actual work
of drawing up a new miners wage

scale, based OF the rates arranged for
the central field.
Miners ConciliatoPy
The miners have not yet entirely
receded from their demands for a five
day week and a six hour day, but
they showed a disposition to be con-
ciliatory and indications today were
that an agreement, even though tenn
porary, would be reached.
Meanwhile, reports We're being re-
eeived of miners returning to work in
increasing numbers, although in many
places hundreds were refusing to re-
turn to work. Troops were being with
drawn from the coal fields, all fear of
riots having disappeared.

Japanese Prohibition Bill
Framed To Conserve Rice

Toxic, Oct. 2S.-(By mail)-Secre5
tary Tago of the home office is engage
ed in drafting a drastic prohibition
bill which will be laid before the forth
coming session of the diet. The bill
would prohibit the drinking of liquor
by men and women under 25 years of
age.
This is the first time the govern
ment has looked with favor on a tenn
perance measure, although similar
bills have been introduced from year
to year by Nemoto, a member of the
diet, and an ardent Christian.
The need of conserving rice has
caused the peers to favor the limiting
of the drinking of sake. The bill will
probably make an exception in the
case of the time honored custom of
drinking sake at wedding ceremonies.
