NEW NORTH DAKOTA GAME
LAWS, ssE

st. Paul Globe:--C. A. Hale,
game and fish commissioner Of
North Dakota, is spending a few
days in st. Paul comforting with
S. f. Fullerton, executive agent
Of the state game and fish com
mission in Minnesota, and a new
code of laws for the protection Of
the game of North Dakota will be
presented to the legislature to
meet at Bismarck next month as
a result Of their conference.
State Game Warden Hale will
ask the legislature to adopt a new
game law patterned after the law
now in force in this state. The
law will absolutely prohibit
spring shooting, on the theory
that every bird destroyed in the
spring, when the birds are nest
ing, means the loss Of a dozen
later in the season. The sale Of
game in the markets Of the state
or for shipment out.of the state,
except under restricted con-
ditions, will be fprevented and
the game bag will be limited.
The new law will limit the bag OF
prairie chickens to twenty-five:
ducks and geese thirty five, and
snipe and p!over to fifty, making
a total bag for the season Of 19C
birds. The number of deer per-
mitted to be shot in a season by
one person is, under the terms
provided in the new law, reduced
from five to four. Quail are not
very plentiful in the, Flickertail
state, owing to cold winters and
the diligence with which they
| have been hunted, and the new
code. suggests the prohibition Q:
The Hope pioneer. [volume] (Hope, N.D.) 1882-1964, 1904-12-15
quail entirely for the next five

quail entirely for the next five
years.
Warden Hale will endeavor
to incorporate into the new
game laws a prohibition against
the automatic rapid fire gun,
with which game birds are so
sadly depleted in numbers, but
sportsmen agree that he will
have difficulty in ruling out the
pump" gun from use in the
fields.of his state. Other states,1
notably Minnesota, haye failed in
efforts to legislate against the
use of the automatic gun,
and their experience may be the
result of the agitation in North
Dakota.
II believe that Minnesota has
the best set Of laws for the pro-
lection Of game of any state in
the Northwest said Mr.. Hale
yesterday. "They have proven
wise laws for Minnesota and
should be equally as effective in
protecting the game Of our state.
1 shall prepare new code con-
tanning the best points in the
Minnesota laws, for submission
Ito the next session Of our legis-
lature, and shall do my best to
secure their passage.
There are reports, however,
that Warden Hale will mot be re
appointed to his present Office
byE Y. Sarles the incoming
Isgovernor. A North Dakota
/ politician, who was in ST. Paul
i yesterday, said that the new
lgovernor was pledged not to ap.
| point Mr. Hale to his present
| position. The Office in North
Dakota is one in which politics
