No RUSH
FOR LICENSES

Thus far there has been no appre-
ciable rush for hunting and fishing
license under the new game law
Only about 25 licenses have been
issued and these go mostly to resi-
dents of the city who are awaiting
the advance of warm weather to sally
forth in quest of the speckled beauties
that abound in the various streams
near and surrounding Havre.
The new law meets with censure Oh
every hand, many declaring that they
will test it in the courts, and take it
to the supreme court if necessary.
Especially is this feeling prevailing
among farmers and ranchers who feel
that any abridgement of their rights
to take fish and game in country
which they have settled and up
builded is direct infringement upon
personal liberty.
It is not thought the law will re-
ceive much encouragement from the
public, and it is dollars to doughnuts
one could not find d jury in the state
who Wovld convict a man for catching
fish without a license.
Those legislators wlo passed the
bill are receiving anything but en-
comiums OF praise from the public.
You can do better at The Fair.

China Takes Ques-

CALL BUREAU, POST BUILDING,
WASHINGTON, June ~. - China Is
about to take the question Of Mon-
golian immigration to the United States
into her own hands. Within . few
weeks the Dowager Empress Will pub
lish an edIct forbiddinR Cinnamon of
the laboring class to make an attempt
TO come to this country.
It is one of the most important re-
forms which that Government ever has
considered. 1t means not only an inn
provement in the relations of China
and the United States through the re-
moval of many irritating questions but
an assertion on the part of the Celestial
empire of an independent sovereignty
and of its purpose to prevent the insult
and humiliation of its people. This at
titude is one of the results of the vic
tory of the japanese over the Russians,
as the Cinnamon now are imbued with
the belief that they as we'll as the
Japanese are the equals of the white
race.
Information of the solution which the
Chinese Government has been evolving
to the serious immigration question has
reached the President, and if the edict
is issued at once it will have undoubt-
edly a big influence upon the policy he
will adopt in connection with. the mat
ter of exclusion
