PRESERVE THE GAME.
Reckless Disregard for the Law
Allowed.

Allowed.
The lovers OF good gun Or pole and
n chance TO use IL are becoming
alarmed at the wholesale destruction
OF Dish and game that is going on In
Dickinson county. II is asserted that
dozens Of seines are set In the Smoky
Hill river effectually draining that
stream OF its nsh which have been
increasing in number for several years.
The killing Of prairie chicken and
quail out Of season has almost denuded
our prairles Of those species Of game
and II the destruction is kept up there
will soon be none left.
Not only should the officers take care
that the law is enforced but private
citizens are fully warranted in inform
ing on any depredators. It is n matter
that interests us all. The sight Of
quail, chicken and fish exhibited for
sale In tho stores every month in the
year Is one calculated to sadden the
heart Of sportsman and is an irrepar
able injury TO the community ard state.

there are many considerations
which would lead one to suppose
that, if even We addressed oul
prayer to the United States to alb
Sorb Us, our petition would not be
| granted, 1t would be a departure
from the traditional policy of the
United States; a policy laid down
by the fathers of the country and
confirmed by her greatest succeed
ing statesmen.
The internal resources of Amer
lea are far from being developed to
that pitch when it is desirable to
look abroad for new fields. Her
great industries are largely main
tanned by foreign capital, English
syndicates are being formed unin-
terruptedly for the foundation and
operation of vast commercial
schemes, for which there is not yet
sufficient available wealth in the
Great Republic. What grounds
can there be for supposing that she
would be willing TO extend her
domiaion to far-off country,
thousands of miles distant from
her native continent? Add TO this
the state of labor in Hawaii-the
thousands of Chinese contract la
borers, The business would in
volve far more trouble than it is
WORTH! America would have these
Islands on her hands, to defend in
time of war and during peace
obviously to support; that is the
only reason for being annexed.
We should form n possession
about as desirable and profitable to
our mighty neighbor as a mosquito
in August.
Again, other nations might wish
to be consulted before a final settle
ment were made placing the Key
of the Pacific Ocean completely in
the hands of any great power. The
Hawaiian Islands occupy q posi-
ton of ever-increasing strategic
Importance. In the fair way of
communication between Canada on
the one hand, and Japan, China,
India and the Colonies on the
other. Can we believe that Eng
land would ever consent to place 80
important a base of operations en-
tirely in the hands of her only pos
sible rival in the Pacific.
Sapposing she were to permit it,
our position would be unenviable
in time of war, should it ever break
out. It would take years of bounty
to compensate for a hostile vista
ton of powerful fleet. One thing,
however, is certain, Bull Frog may
write and calculate to his hearts
content, bat annexation viii not be
settled in his study, nor in the
Armory, nor in Honolulu, nor,
probably, in Washington. My let
ter has already run to such length
that l must conclude, reserving
many other points for future dis
eussion. BASIL.

Consistency is a level.

Mr.. EDITOR: The quarantine
farce on the 5. :. Batavia has
called the attention of the public to
the fact that there is something
rotten in Denmark." Why should
the Pilot and Harbor Master be
allowed (not calling the Port Sur
yevor's detention into notieel TO
board. the vessel and return ashore?
Presumably the Harbor Master and
the Pilot went home. Tuesday
they were called upon to go into
quarantine. Where is the consist
ency? We have Board of Health,
For what? The Port Doctor pro-
nounced the vessel in fit condition
to enter the harbor. Why not come
to the dock? The freight is landed.
Why not from the ship as well as
from Hackfeld & Co.'S lighters?
There seems to me room for in
quiries. INQUIRER.
