when in q semi-stupid state. There are
streams 10 which the young fry resort. away
| from the danger Of the larger fishes that feed
on them. These should be protected from
being angled on at any time. The Saccatien
and Misery rivers at Moo-ehead, should be
closed for at least Eve years. The outlet OF
Moosehead Lake should also be protected for
distance TO be decided upon, and stsked
out from the first day of September until the
following Nav. No fishing should be allow

% the subject Of game, the report sets
forth steady increase. This has arisen as
much from the sanctuary afforded by the en-
forcemept Of the Law against the use OF dogs
in hunting as from the natural increase by
breeding MANY hundred head Of game have
undoubtedly migrated into the State, simply
hunting and bounding Even if all che moose,
caribou and deer could be confined TO the
boundaries Of the State By impossible bar
rier., the simple effect of bounding would eff
feet their fecundity. The non-exportation
laws kept not far from 1000 deer from the
Boston and New York markets during the
winter Of 1888 81, or at least such was the
number received at those points the previous
winter Maine owns all the game of the
State, and has the right TO dictate the terms
upon which the same may be killed, and the
extent OF the title To the property when kill
ed If the game of Maine is to be preserved,
so that her citizens may indulge in their ia
vorite pastime, no future expectation OF 1t
must be permitted.
In regard to making September an open
month the commissioners speak out emphati-
cally: "Our vension is not done nursing in
September, and still comes down TO the wa
ter in our usually hot and dry autumn. The
real object sought is a change that will per-
nit moose calling when it is as fair and noble |
and sportsmanlike as to spear fish on their |
spaw ming beds. Il is also equally sought for |
the nHble sport Of shining or jack hunting |
the wretched deer in the water. No! no
change there!"
To the poachers cry of wolf. the commits
sioners have responded by the offer of a
double bounty for every VOLTS scalp. No
claims have been presented.

Maine is spoken Of as being the only
