[The tuna fishing has been nearly ruined by the promiscuous netting 

 of market-men. But in 1913 the Tuna Club secured the passage of a 

 law that was signed by the Gtovemor of Cahfomia, recognizing three 

 miles offshore of this island as a spawning-ground and stopping all 

 netting. This ended a fight of twenty years standing and wiU result 

 in the return of the tuna and the increase of all the great game fishes 

 of California.]
