to Maine from New York, Philadelphia,
Baltimore and Washington than to get
to the shores of the Chesapeake. Once
the bay is good fishing you can realize
what 1t means.
LAS a small guess let us say that from
the shoreS-East and West-there would
be 1000 more fishermen with rod and
line and they would spend an average
of SIS daily for $50 days Of fishing, so
And who would get this money? The
men, the boarding houses and the stores
on both shores of the bay.
rs it not stupid for these people to
pass up this golden harvest? Why they
do is beyond reasoning. The towns and
cities would also benefit by changing
hands of money.
These boatmen who take out fish,
ing parties are stupid because they have
permitted the State to make an uncon-
stitutional charge for gasoline.
Even the pound METER, leaving in
the dark of morning to 60 to his nets,
gets no rebate of the State tax on gaSo-
line, which tax Is for hard roads. The
farmer is exempt from gas tax and
uses the roads, while the man who
needs gasoline to run his boat on the
water to fish for living or take out
fishing parties pays the tax. This APP
pears not only wrong, but that he sits
and takes it in the jaw seems stupid.
Now here is q reasonable program:
81. The State to forbid purse netting
and reimburse the purse METERS for
their rigs An item of about 5000,
but be just and pay what their value Is
%. Let the pound METERS realize that
they are a benefit to the community
and should be helped and not hurt.
IS. That pound meters and fishing
boatmen have the absolute right to be
exempt from the gasoline tax.
q. That these men, the storekeeperS
and boarding house owners and all who
are interested in the returns from good
fishing on the bay instruct their dele
gates and Senators to carry through q
program of this nature"
This column would like to add that
a law requiring the pound METERS to
Gull their fish at sea would be of ma
terial help. According to the Bureau
of Fisheries, thousands of small fish are
allowed to die because the pound net
ters and others do not Gull their fish
Ordinarily they are dumped into boats
and the small FISH thrown away when
the boats reach shore.

FISHERMEN ALREADY
HAVE TRIP IN MIND

With the approach of the 1880 fish
ing season only little ways of many
local anglers have commenced to think
of a place down on the Eastern Shore
of Virginia.
Wachapreague. the village By the
sea, is one of the best known nshmg
grounds in this section of the country.
Thirty local anglers who made the trip
last May never will forget the large
number of fish landed during their two
days of fishing.
Ollie Atlas is planning to hold another
outing during the first part OF May,
and there also has been some talk
of the Washington Chapter OF the
Izaak Walton League giving its mem
bers an opportunity to get some nsnlng
there.
In a letter from A. H. G. Mears
of Wachapreague, he suggests running
weekly bus from Washington during
the fishing season, leaving here Wednes-
day and returning Sunday.
Til, United States Bureau of Fish
cries has promised the bass planting
committee of the local chapter of /.
w. L. of A. shipments of lingering
bass and also as many adults as can
be obtained for the Potomac River
between Little and Great Falls. These
flsh when received will be liberated
from Sycamore Island.

SA B. GARDINER, one of Mary
\ lands enthusiastic fishermen, in
a letter to Fishermen's Luck in

SA B. GARDINER, one of Mary
~ lands enthusiastic fishermen, in
~ a letter to Fishermen's Luck in
the Baltimore Sun, presents one
of the best arguments in favor OF aboh-
ton of the purse METERS ever printed
in the opinion of this column.
The letter follows:
This story is like the man who held
a penny so close to his eyes That ne
could not see the 10-dollar bill, because
It relates to the State of Maryland vot-
ing to take $3.50 IN license fees and,
blinded by the sun, failing to see that
1t would get $750,000.
1T comes about for three simple
causes
Il. Politics.
20. Stupidity.
"3. Lack Of interest.
let us consider these three condi-
lions, but to first explain what is the
cause for all this.
Maryland has that great and fertile
body of water, Chesapeake Bay. And
on each side of 1t she has fishermen.
Men who fish and love to fish. And
men who have boats that carry the
fishermen to the fishing grounds. And
boarding houses. And stores that sup
ply food and comforts to this group.
''She also has a few energetic poll
ticians to the number of about 20 who
net schools of fish in the waters of the
bay by drawing deep net around the
school and catching the fish. And they
are the purse METERS.
IF these 20 or IS rigs had made
money in the last three years, that
would not alter the situation, but, as a
matter of fact, they have lost money.
And in doing 50 they also have dam
aged fishing for others. 1 cannot take
the space here to tell of one catch, 10
tons of rock, our best fish, caught and
spoiled, or of trout or of other fish hurt
to death, but enough to say that Mary
land is one of the few States that per-
mits this destructive netting.
And these 20 rigowners play politics
and pay $3.50 license to the State and
do nothing successful, but ruin the
fishing.
Here it is proper to say that the
purse-netters and the pound-netters are
not the same type or kind of fisher
men. The pound-netter is a neces-
sity and valuable to the State, and is
not to be legiSlated against, but why
the pound men, who are hurt badly
by the purse-netter, fall for the politics
of the purse-netter comes under the
head of stupidity.
Il think 1 express the sentiment of
all those familiar with this matter:
that the pound-netter is valuable to
the community and the purse-netter is
nurtful to the pound-netter and the
community
There is further stupidity. Any one
who reads knows that fishing is a
great lure to our citizens. When fish,
ing is good they 60 and they spend
money. Maine learned this and the
protection she gave to her waters has
increased her fishing tourists by some
thousands and her income by $4,000
600 a year. And 1t costs more to 60
