TO AMEND THE GAME LAW
Bill to Permit Citizens to Fish and
Hunt Without Licenses

BOISE. Jan. 30.-Representative
Webster of Fremont county has intro
duced a bill in the house to amend the
fish and game law. His proposal is to
permit bona fide residents of the state,
to fish with a hook and line at any sea-
son of the year and to hunt during
open seasons without first paying the
license fee of 81 as now provided. His
measure provides. however. that citi-
zens are bound by the present restric-
tions upon fishing that not over twenty
pounds must be caught in single day
and that no fish may be sold or mar
keted. The other provisions OF the nsn
and game law are left undisturoed by
the Webster bill.

A Word to Correspondents.

An exchange prints a set Of rules for
the guidance of it's country correspon-
dents. and we are glad to give them
a place in the Journal in the hope
that they will be of interest and value
to our own correspondents who send
us items from the country towns in all
sections of the State. The Journal has
about $50 correspondents. representing
all the towns in this immediate sec
ton of the State, and many towns
in the more remote parts of Maine
The excellent service which they give
speaks for itself in our columns day
after day and week after week. We
regard them all as workers on our
staff, as members of the great Journal
family. and desire that the closest re-
lations be maintained between them
and those who labor in the office itself
Most of these correspondents need no
ins tructiOn or advice about preparing
their letters to us, but in such large
number there are frequent changes
and there are always few among
them whose work would be improved
il they would follow the few simple
rules referred to above. These are
the rules:
F'irst-Re sure and write only on one
side of the paper.
Second-Write each item separate
and leave at least half an inch between
items.
Third-Never abbreviate: leave that
for the editor to do if it requires it.
Fourth--Be very careful in writing
proper names. If in doubt print the
| letters. Persons are provoked on See
Ing their names spelled wrongly.
Fifth-Be sure when you have fin
lshed your items that every word is
plainly written.
!. Slxth-Be sure and date and sign all
communications.
! Seventh-Always use the dayof the
week. instead of saying yesterday, to-
day. tomorrow, last night, etc.
Eighth-Be prompt in sending in
items OF exceptional interest, rather

They refer to him now as the Hearst
while candidate for mayor of Great
New York. but it is probable that his
defeat. since it came so near being a
victory. will spur him on to try for
greater political prizes. 1t has been
almost impossible to take Hearst Seri-
ously as d politician and candidate for
o;llce. and yet with his wealth, his
methods and his success in appealing
to certain classes and masses. he is
undoubtedly figure that must be
reckoned with. Although he has al
ways been Democrat and has been
elected to Congress as the candidate
of that party, the yellow journalist ran
for mayor in opposition to Tammany.
and certainly. after the scare he gave

forgive him or assist again in further

than waiting to include them in your
usual weekly letter.
Ninth-Never let personal prejudice
or feeling interfere with your work as
correspondent.
Tenth-Never send items which are
meant as a joke or in which there Is
a hidden meaning, for if they find their
way into print it is unpleasant for the
victim and of little interest to others.
If the Journals correspondents will
endeavor to faithfully follow these
rules it will result in general i'm
provement in their work and Will
greatly help out those who are in the
office and who handle their letters and
prepare the copy for the printers. This
is no small task when half hundred
or more letters are often received in a
single day from country correspondents.
With the Journals large and increas-
ing circulation throughout all the
towns in this part of Maine, we re-
gard our country correspondence as one
of the most important features of our
paper and we wish to maintain it at a
high standard. We wish to take this
occasion to thank our correspondents
for their loyal and active cooperation
in the past, and to urge them to re-
double their efforts in the future. To
this end the faithful observance Of the
simple rules given above will be a
great help.
