FISHING
SEASON WILL NOT END TILL
LAST DAY OF OCTO-
Der.
by an Assertion Accredited to a
State Officer in Cheyenne-The
Statutes Are Plain in the Matter
MIR. Campbeli's Statement.

There has been a good deal of dis
cussion the last few days concerning
the limit of the fishing season in this
state. A Cheyenne paper a few days
ago published a statement, for which
Deputy Secretary of State Fuller was
made responsible, that the fishing
season ended, by the provisions of
the law, on September 80. That state
ment has been circulated among a few
sportsmen of this city with the result
that several proposed fishing trips
have been abandoned. Considering
the popularity of the sport in this
county it would not be a bad idea for
fishermen to post themselves on the
state law.
Just how Mr.. Fuller got the notion
in his noggin that the season ended
on September 80 is somewhat difficult
of comprehension over here in this
patch of the plains. The statutes are
written down in good plain English
and have been published in The ne
publican Office in good type and on
nice white paper and should be very
readily comprehended, wen in Chey.
enne. And the law in the matter is
as follows:
Sec. 2l46. No person shall catch
or take. or have in his possession,
from any lake, river or stream of this
state. by any mean whatever, any
speckled trout, land lock salmon,
grayling or California trout, during
January, February, March and April,
or either of said months in any year,
and the possession or selling, or Of
fering for sale of trout or other food
fish during the months above men,
toned shall be prima facie evidence
of the violation of the provisions of
this section and the person or persons
50 found shall be deemed guilty of a
miSdemeanor, and upon conviction
thereof, shall be punished by a fine of
not less than twenty-five nor more
than fifty dollars and cost of prose.
cution, or shall be imprisoned for a
period of not more than three months,
or by both.
If any Interpretation of this section
be required Fish Commissioner Camp.

morning that the fishing season will
end on October 81.
