Bill To License Game Hunters.

A bill of importance to the hunters,
fishermen and sportsmen Of the state
is now being drafted by A.C. Little,
state fish commissioners, and will be
submitted to the next legislature for
enactment. The bill is based on the
game law of the state of Wisconsin,
but goes far beyond the law OF that
state in some OF its provisions. 1t is
Mr.. Little's plan to lay the entire bur-
den of protecting the game in the
Washington forests and the trout in
the Washington streams directly on
those who do the fishing and hunting.
The bill will provide that everyone
who fishes or hunts in the state shall
take out license for the privilege
costing 81 3 year. II the person Sc
curing the license is a nonresident of
the state, the license will cost him $40.
The same law will apply TO trout fish
ing.
In addition, a tax of ST. Will be levied
for every deer that hunters Kill, land a
tax of S. for every elk killed. No tax
will be levied for the killing of bears,
wildcats, cougars. wolves or other deni-
zens Of the forest, nor for smaller game
or water fowl
The Wisconsin law merely provides
that every hunter living in the state
shall take out license costing 81
year, while non-residents of the state
must pay $50 for a license. The salts
faction given by the system in Wis
consn recommended the plan to Mr..
Little
Mr.. Little's bill provides for the ap-
pointment Of q deputy state game
warden, who will work. under the
supervision of the state fish commits
sioner The present system of county
wardens which has proven so utterly
unreliable, in that only three counties
in the state, so far as known, (King,
Whatcom and Spokane), have such
wardens, is also changed by the bill.
Instead of the county warden being
paid $25 month, they will be paid
a stipulated sum per diem, which will
make the office of sufficient Importance
in the matter Of salary to retain some
energetic man in every county as war
den, who will enforce the game laws.
These county wardens will be paid
from the license fund collected from
hunters and fishermen. Mr.. Little
believes his plan will give the most
direct and positive protection Wash
ington game has ever had.-Tacoma

The Legal Election of Mckinley.

If the Constitution OF the United
States had worked as its trainers in
tended, we should all lie looking for
ward to the 14th of January with very
keen interest, and probably also with
excitement, heated controversy, and
no little turmoil For, although very
few people seem to be aware of the fact
it is the 18th of January, 1901, and
not the 9th of November, 1900, that is
fixed by law as the date for the cleo
ton of the President and Vice-Presi-
dent who are to be inaugurated on the
4th day of March.
On the second Monday of the pres
ent month of January, All citizens
who we're chosen for that purpose last
November are to vote for a President
and Vice President of the United
States. Each one of these men has !.
|psrfe: t e yal light to vote for any person
whatsoever, or to vote a blank. Or, he
may disregard his obligation and not
vote at all. So far'as we are aware, all
OF. the AT electors are yet alive, and
there is no one throughout the length
and breadth of the land who does not
expect with entire confidence that Mr..
Mel Klnley and Mr. Roosevelt will receive
292 of their votes, and that Mr. Bryan
and Mr. Stevenson will receive exact
ly 155.
Yet NJ pledges have been exacted
from any of these men. Their legal
duty dOss rot extend beyond the SIM
pie requirement that thev shall meet
in their respective States and vote by

The biennial report of Land Com
missioner Bridges to the legislature
has been issued and it contains many
matters of interest. Referring to oys-
ter lands and oyster culture the report
has this among other things to say j:
Practically all of the tide lands in
the state suitable for the cultivation
of oysters, excepting those areas en-
braced in the natural oyster bed re-
serves, have been disposed of by the
state; the past two years especially
witnessing great activity in the de-
mand for such lands, as may be INFER
red from the fact that there are at
this time one hundred and irty-nine
applications pending for the purchase
of tide lands in the state for oyster
culture, embracing an aggregate area
of 5742.S7 acres; there having been
sold prior to October 81, 1900, an ag-
gregate area of (721l.78 acres. The
total area embraced in the natural
oyster bed reserves in the state is
1921. "a acres. Thus it will be seen
that the total area of tide lands in
this state which have been denoml-
mated as suitable for oyster culture,
amounts to II ,246.29 acres, a relative
ly small area when compared with the
62,775.8O acres OF tide lands hold fol
similar purposes in the state of Con
neticut, and the $4,000 acres under
cultivation i'll Chesapeake bay, where
the famous Baltimore oyster is found
"With such limited area of avail
able oyster land in this state, and in
view of the rapidly growing market
which is already beyond the present
possibilities of supply, the future of the
oyster industry in this state certainly
looks bright.
almost all of the oysters raised ir
Puget Sound come from the bays ii
Mason and Thurston counties known
as Oyster bay Gotten inlet), Big Skoo
KUN (Hammersley's inlet), and Mu6
Bay (Eld inleD, the total output ol
these bays for the year ending Novem
ber /, 1900, being given by the trans
portation companies at &c, ,129 sacks o
oysters, an amount about double that
OF the year previous.
Large quantities of oysters are al
SO raised in Pacific county: Willaps
harbor in that county being one of the
most important centers OF this state
Other places in this state where the
oyster industry is being carried or
more or less extensively are found in
Hoods Canal, Port Orchard, Samish
bay. Dogfish bay, Madison lagoon
North and South bay, Burley lagoon
Discovery bay and other minor points
"a sack ofoysters weighs ITO pound
and contains about two bushels; wher
shelled one sack will average abou
twelve quarts of opened oysters. Th'
present price Of ovsters is $3.50 sacl
and 81 a gallon for opened oysters
The average cost of producing oysters
on some of the ordinary beds of Puget
Sound is 81 per sack some beds yield
ing as high as 300 sacks per year OF
each acre. With these facts before u
it can be seen that the state has Z ricl
heritage in its natural oyster beds
which if judlciously managed shoult
net the state large revenue. Olym
