Youngsters Who Shot Moose VIII Be Let
Off Easy.


Augusta, August 2.-Hon. L. L. Garlic
ton, chairman Of the inland fish and
game commissioners left today for Sher-
man. A registered guide wrote him from
that place that he had positive proof that

used the meat for batting his bear traps.
1t is reported that the commissioners
have proof that two men from Haverhill
Mass, during July, while in the regions
Of the Allegash, killed calf and calf
moose.
Speaking in regard to the case OF the
two young men who recently confessed to
killing moose in close time, Commits
sioner Carleton says:
IT have talked this matter over with
Gov. Powers, and he agrees with me that
it would not be forwarding the ends OF
Justice to severely punish these two boys,
who in their fright and excitement shot
moose. The case is entirely different
from one where men, hunting for such
game, shoot a moose in close time, and
in such case as the last, I would be the
last person to show leniency. So far as
am concerned, before would be par
ty to putting these boys in Jail even for a
day I shall resign my position. should
not think that I was doing right'in any
sense of the word, to take any action that
would put these boys in position where
jail sentence could be charged against
them for their whole lives. / believe the
Story of the hoys and that thew shot the
moose upon the spur of the moment, be-
cause of fright and with no intention of
breaking the law"
