AHunter,s License

Des Moines, Dec. 14.-Fish Commits
sioner Delavan, in conversation yes
terday, said that ne would make a
great effort to have the next legislature
pass law which will compel sports
men from other states desiring to hunt
and fish in Iowa to take out a license.
He says that Illinois, Wisconsin, Min
nesota and the Dakotas have license
laws and the result is Iowa is overrun
with fellows who come here to escape
payment of this license fee. Illinois
charges $40 for each county; Wiscon-
sin $25 for the entire state, as does
Minnesota and North Dakota. South
Dakota charges $40 for the entire state.
The sportsmen of Burlington conclud-
ed that the Illinois law was uncon-
stitutional and man was selected to
cross the river into that state and
shoot n duck without taking out Ii
cense. An arrest and conviction fol-
lowed. Judge Kohlsaat, of Chicago,
holding the law constitutional.
Mr.. Delavan, had several pictures
showing the destruction to fish in the
Iowa river by the poiscns coming from
the glucose factories at Marshalltown.
The photographs show dead fish of all
sizes floating down the river and piled
up in great heaps along the shore. The
poison is said to be an acid used in the
manufacture of glucose and which is
turned into the Iowa river.
