-, Marquette. Mich; N9v; 2o-As a result Of
resident deer hunters license fee there is
strong probability the Marquette board of su-
pervisors will abolish the county game warden's
department. A similar disposition is manifest
ed in other districts Of the upper peninsula
Criticism of the new provision of the game
law Is caustic. The operation of the legislation
warden's department. will be enabled to make
better showing, it will be at the expense of
the counties, and northern Michigan supervisors
do not like it; In this county at least,
among the members of the county board, and
there is likelihood that the three now act
ing as county game wardens will soon be look
ing for other Jobs.
Last year the department cost the county of
Marquette about $4,000, or nearly six times the
amount derived from the sale of hunting licenses
More than 1000 permits were issued last year
at IS cents each. the state county and county
clerk dividing the returns equally. The last
legislature raised the license fee to $3.50 and
apportioned the division as follows: State, ST..
and county and county clerk each 25 cents The
increased price demanded has the effect of ma
terially curtailing the sale Of hunting permits,
the falling off in this county, compared with
last season, being about 500.
This brings down the revenue Of the county.
while that Of the state, in consequence of the
higher fee, is increased from $500 to about
! $1,000. However, in the end the new game
law provision will cost the state a great deal
| Of money, for upper peninsula counties will dis
| continue their game warden departments and the
state will be forced to pay the many deputies
who formerly received pay from the counties
A glaring blunder In the new game law is
| that part which attaches penalty to the act
| of keeping the carcass Of deer in ones DOS
session five days after the close of the hunting
season. The legislators say they intended this
part of the law to be effective on the cold stor-
! age dealers only, but the legitimate hunter is
| robbed of what the state sold him by license
| No matter what was the intention of the legfs-
| lature the attorney general holds that the law
! reaches every person having deer in his posses
sion, whether he be cold storage man or private
| citizen in any line of business - 81 : -. :
