SHOIJLD RECEIVE
BETTER PROTECTION

Word was brought into this office
IN the effect that two young men had
haen guilty of the wanton destruction
of fish. Upon further investigation
we learned that the report was true
and that they had accomplished the
unlawful act as follows: A few miles
from town, in that part of the slough
which runs through Henry Elges'
, farm. there is an ice pond which is
formed by headgate in the stream.
In some manner the young men sue
ceeded in eorraling a large number of
trout in the head gate and then by
heating them with sticks and other
wise rendering them unconcious they
succeeded in capturing great num-
ber.
The young men in question are
respectable boys of this town and
for that reason no complaint has been
laid against them thus far, but we
can assure them that there are a
number of people in this community
who would not hesitate to bring about
a prosecution, could they but learn
the names of the culprits. BY so
cruely taking advantage of the fish
the young men have not only laid
themselves liable to the law, but they
will for ever be tabooed by good.
honest sportsmen.
The fish law is being very seriously
abused all along the Carson river and
this paper has allied itself with sev-
eral neighboring papers to see that
a reform of some kind is accomplished.
We shall take it upon ourselves to see
that all who have broken the law in
the past and all who may break it in
future will receive the punishment
their crime deserves and so for the
present as far as these cheap sports
men are concerned, "a word to the
wise is sufficient
