Only n few additional reports from
forest fire wardens have been received
at the office of the forest commissions
since the publication of the list o.
forest fires in the Journal the othel
day. The railroad companies have
been very active in furnishing large
crews of men in many localities to as
Gist the wardens in putting out tho
fires, and this assistance has been o
great benefit as no expense for the ser
vices of the men has fallen upon thu
State.
Governor Hill will not be at the Capt
toll until Monday, as he is now out o
the city.
The fish and game commissioners
have been paying considerable atten
ton to the enforcement of the laws re
garding the possession and thansporta
ton of game birds and birds of plum
age The Lacey law, so-called, places
=, the laws of the states under fedora
jurisdiction and makes them more Ger
tain of enforcement. Recently Gam
Warden Ross of Vanceboro. seized al
extensive lot of gull's breasts in East
port, making the second seizure of tn
same kind within year. Many peopi
who are not at all afraid, for SOM
mysterious reason, of coming into con
fict with State law, do not feel tn
same confidence when Uncle sam L
the offended party. Consequently
vigorous enforcement of the federal Law
on these points will have powerful
influence in putting a stop to pernic
ious practice which is rapidly destroy
ing our shore birds, and particularly tn
useful and picturesque gulls. Men WHIT
know how to get around State Justice
don't know so well how to escape Unit
ed States justice, and hate to test tn
power of the federal government.
