The Wisconsin members Of this fra
ternity are even now, we are told, ly-
ing in wait for Mayor Harrison. In
this case the mayor had better take
advantage of the experience of other
public characters and avoid every APP
Pearance of lawbreaking even in the
tall timber. 1t may be taken for
granted that the Wisconsin game war
dens would look upon the opportunity
to capture Chicago's mayor S a chance
by all means to be taken advantage of.
In defining some OF the ethics Of a
game warden's duty, Canadian game
warden once illuminated the subject
in the following concise manner:
"Of course, IL you take the letter Of
the law, nobody's got the right to kill

a settler and lives right here and kills
the deer for food, it's pretty hard
lines to say that he amt entitled to

the authorities had not proceeded
far when they encountered a dwell

They spared these also. But they
attacked with great Vigor all small
buildings and sheds. and left little
heaps OF ruins behind them.
They have not opened up the
street Perhaps under the circum-
stances OF such long tenure of the
land on the part OF residents and
powerful corporations this was not
TO be expected. But at any rate a
spectacular display was made of the
powerful arm of Authority. Perhaps
the denaolishers have involved the
city in legal difficulties at any rate
they have given an example of the
purposeless and spasmodic energy
which too often chameterizes the
movomentS OF those in authority.
One might almost DO pardoned for
regarding the whole exhibition as an
