WILL THEY DO IT7
VIII the TazeweII Farmers Allow Tres
passlRg2

Mr.. Editor:-It is reported that gunners
in Bluefield have already wagers with each
other as to who among them will slay the
most birds in Tazewell this fall. 10Th OF
October, the opening of the season, will
soon be here. There is q strong sentiment
all over the country to prohibit game,
which is killed in state, from being car
ried beyond its borders. What say you?
Respectfully,
LOCAL SPOKESMAN.
We have received the above communi
cation from one Of our most ardent local
sportsmen, gentleman who enjoys hunt
ing, not from desire to make big score,
but for the legitimate pleasures that are
felt by all true sportsmep. Those who
want to make large score on wager are
not sportsmen in the true sense of the
word, and we trust none such will be per-
nitted 10 enter the fields of TszewelI the
coming hunting season.
To have man shoot over ones land, at
best, is somewhat Of nuisance, but when
strangers 90 upon the lands of a farmer,
unlimited to have match shooting it be-.
CONES nuisance greater than any man
can be expected to bear. No man should
presume to enter the fields of another to
shoot game, except by the permission or
invitation of the owner. We take it for
granted that Tazewell land owners will not
permit trespassers, from another State to
come in and butcher up their game.
There may be good many birds in the
county, but not more than the farmers
will want for themselves and their invited
guests.
