OF Interest To the Fish Warden.

That paragraph in the Lawton Leader
relative To the adventures of Game and
Fish Warden Dey, who was lost in the
marshes of Three Mile Lake while
spotting fishermen, reminds us that his
bluff of "Yank" and his gun didn't
have the desired effect on the "dusky
knights, " as their fishing lights continue
To blaze, not only on Three Mile Lake,
but on Eagle and other lakes with great
regularity. 1t was on a par with IA GER
tain letter written by a prominent stock
buyer of this vicinity, one who has alto
gether too much business to think of
fishing, favoring the rigid enforcement
of the fish laws as whole.
We would respectfully call public
attention to the clauses of the law bear
ing on fish shuteS and the obstruction
of natural channels leading to spawning
grounds. What is known as Bass
Harbor," north of Four Mile Lake, used
to furnish the best feeding grounds
about the lake and, before the building
of the narrow gauge, literally teemed
with fish, as many can bear witness, is
now entirely cut off from the lake by
the filling in of the railroad. The com
pany would, undoubtedly, if properly
notified, construct suitable passage
way for fish; and the warden, should
he bring about that desirable result,
would merit and receive the thanks of
resident spOrtSmen. FAIR PLAY.
