The irresponsible men and boys
who roam over fields throwing down
fences and tramping grain and grass,
and roam through woods and over
mountain are the people who cause
the great fires in woods and noun
lain to the destruction of thousands
of dollars worth of property. The
late great woods fires have caused
land owners TO earnestly discuss the
justice that they should do them
selves by arresting the hunter tramps
that have no respects for the rights
of others.
An irresponsible roaming tramp
hunter drops pair of bars, throws
off rail or two on a fence and the
proprietor of the land must follow
him or send some one to put up the
bars or repair the fence. When the
rascals are spoken to about their un-
lawful tresspass they often grow
saucy, and talk hard things about the
men who object to have their prop
erty destroyed. OF course it is ig
norance on the part of the tramp
that induces him to grow saucy when
on his unlawful raid. One lesson
under the law would go a great dis
tance to educate the conceit and ig-
norance out of such character.
