The Boston Transcript sums up the
situation by showing that there are
three parties which must be recognized
in the present football controversy:
those who don't know anything about
the game, who don't want to know any,
thing and who wish to see it abolished;
those who have tried in vain to under
stand it and who want it converted into
something they can understand; those
who have been brought up I'm the midst
of it, who would like to see existing
abuses corrected, but who believe in
still further development of team play
and not in reversiOn to Old-time in
dividualism. And the whole question,
like the game itself, is just now very
much mixed.

CONSERVATION prevails among the
owners of numerous spOrtsmen's
camps in Piscataquis, Somerset and
Franklin counties on account of the
reported order of the international
Paper Company that no camps shail
be allowed on forest lands which II
owns. and the decision to serve notice
to occupants to vacate. the reason
for the move is announced TO be the
extreme danger of fires from the nu-
merous establishments conducted al
most as deliberately hotels, although 1t
has been previously maintained that
the large number of persons attracted
to these .rcsorts We're an eifectual ald
i'm the discovery and fighting of the
flames and that the risk of cOnflagra-
ton arising from their fires was ex-
tremely slight Evidently, there has
been change in ideas, however, for
according to those affected, the order
is a sweeping one and Will lead to q
general clearing out Of the establish
mentS located on the cOmpanyS prop
erty. Many of the places have occu-
pied their particular sites for years
and not few are located in the
lmOOSehead lake region, where the pa
per company has very large interests.
Accordingly, many WellknOWn resorts
will seek other situations for the sea-
son of 1906. The company is acting
well within it's rights, ownership of
wild land carrying with it the same
privileges i'm regard to trespass as
holding real estate in settled commu-
mites In fact. if the land was fenced
| in. it is maintained that the corpora
| ton would have a perfect right, if it
so desired, to refuse TO permit hunt
| ing on its domains. and the courts
would uphold it by Furnishing Offend
ers There is not the slightest reason
for believing, however. that there is
any intention of carrying matters
as far as that.
