The following resolutions, submitted by the committee on reso- 
lutions, were unanimously adopted: 
Whereas, There is much complaint by the sportsmen living aiong 
Rogue River to the effect that the steelheads, by reason of the com- 
mercial fishing operations at the mouth of the river, are destroyed, 
and because of the fact the steelhead fishing in said river through the 
counties through which the same runs, amounts to practically noth- 
ing, and 
Whereas, It is reliably represented to this crganization that when 
said river was closed to commercial fishing, the steelhead and other 
hook and line fishing was good in said stream, and that the complaints 
arising and presented are due and were caused by the manner il 
which said commercial fishing is carried on at the mouth of the 
river; now therefore, be it 
Resolved, That it is the sense of this organization that such 
measures be instituted as may be found necessary to remove the cause 
for the complaints lodged by said sportsmen, and that this organiza- 
tion be and hereby is piedged to support such measures as may be 
found necessary to bring relief to the sportsmen, and effectually re- 
move the cause for the complaints made by them. Be it further 
Resolved, That a committee of five be appointed by the chairman, 
two of whom shall be residents of Jackson County, Oregon; one from 
Josephine County, Oregon; one from Curry County, Oregon, and one 
from Multnomah County, Oregon, to propose such measures or legisla- 
tion as the committee shall deem advisable to bring about the results 
in this resolution proposed. 
Resolved, That the hearty cooperation of all Rod and Gun Clubs 
with the officers and members of the Oregon Sportsmen’s League is 
absolutely necessary to bring results. 
Resolved, That some method be thought out to provide funds to 
finance this League, and that a committee be appointed to take up 
this work. 
Resolved, That a committee be appointed, called “Grievance and 
Investigation Committee,” said committee having power to act with the 
officers of this organization and the Fish and Game Commission, and
