THE VANISHING PRAIRIE HEN.
Clate Tinan Says Farmers Shout,
Work for Better Game LAWS.

Work for Better Game Laws.
Clate Tinan in September Recreation.
The people of the western prairies
should realize that all game laws are
not in the interest of the few-as some
would have them believe-but in the
interest Of the many, of which they
constitute the major part. The prairie
chickens should be protected with rea-
sonable assurance Of maintaining the
supply if for no other reason than the
food they furnish to the farmer. to
the stockmen and to the rancher. With
this. the pursuit of them furnishes the
youth Of the prairie homes about the
only recreation with dog and gun that
the country affords.
The rich and well to do can either
stock private game preserves or jour-
ney altar off to distant lands where
game is plentiful. To this latter class
the coming or going of the prairie
whole world is theirs ip the pursuit OF
pleasure. Notwithstanding this, and
the further fact that the prairie chick
en- is the best friend in bird life that
the farmer has, destroying, as it does,
myriads of bugs and grasshoppers and,
never molesting standing grain, nine
tenths of the opposition to effective
game laws in every legislative assembly
comes from the farmer members. +,
There is a feeling among this class
of men that game protection is in the
sole interest of the city sportsmen, not.
w~ithstanding that h laws of most
states have stringent trespass laws
Which give to the farmer absolute con-
troll of his lands where the prairie
cnlckens breed and max their home.
Inc city sportsmen are perfectly will
ing that it should be so, resting in the,
belief that there will always be enough,
birds to get over the line to give rea-N
sonable sport.
The posting of farms, too, is APP
proved also by the better class of,
sportsmen. It is a protection to the
birds and a restraint on vandalism,
That is to say it is q protection to the
birds if the farmer will let them alone,
until September 1, and see that his
hired help and his son do likewise
There is a feeling nlong farmers that,
my law which conseYves- the game is
but the saving of them for the hunters

cleaning up whole coveys, but doing
more or less damage to grain and
fences. The provocation is strong,
then, to get out a little in advance and
get a few messes before the shooting
opens in September.
There is only one remedy for this,
n that is the appointment of effective
game wardens from the farming COM
munity. In some of the western states
notably the Dakotas-there is no
state game warden or game commits
sion n but a few county Wardens ap-
pointed by the governor, none of whom
receive a dollar of compensation. The
lm~possibility of a single county game
warden watching from 500 to 1000
square miles of territory and boarding
himself is at n apparent.

The occupancy Of Cuba by
United States troops for the pur-
pose of restoring order in the lit
tie republic has been made again
necessary by a revolution which
the government with President
Palma at its head was unable to
quell. The resignation of Presi-
dent Palma followed the submits
sion of terms upon which peace
and order could be had, but which
the government was unwilling to
accept. Secretary Taft took the
reins Of government by declar-
ing himself the military govern
or of the island and troops from
this country are being poured
into Cuban seaports to support
the military government and re-
store order. Whether another
effort will be made to establish a
separate republic will be deter
mined by the disposition shown
by the Cubans to maintain a gov
ernmcnt of their own or become
a part of this country.

RUN THE VAGRANT OUT

The vagrant law should be rig
idly enforced at all times. but
when the weather is cleared up
and the farmers again resume
the work of harvesting their
crops every able bodied person
without employment should be
put to work. There was never
a greater demand for labor at
good prices and the vagrant
should not be tolerated in any
community. Around the towns
many negroes congregate and
live by questionable methods.
From this class of idlers comes
the criminal who disturbs the
peace of the law abiding, tax
paying citizen, who has to foot
the bills of the courts that try him
for his lawlessness. This criminal
is not in the real sense a citizen,
and entitled to consideration be-
fore the law. The question OF
his personal rights cannot be
taken into consideration; he for
feits them when he fails to obey
the law and support the govern
ment which he looks to to protect
him. He is an enemy to the
government and is more danger
Gus than the anarchist because
he is more numerous. Employ
ment is the only means of making
a citizen of him and every officer
whose duty it is to execute the
laws should be vigilant and see
that this class is run out of the
towns and made to do his part in
performing the labor that is re-
quired to harvest the crops now
in the fields. Following the dis
aster that has visited the cotton
section the man who has made
the crop should be given every
assistance possible in his efforts
to save it. We will have less
expense in running our courts.

The Storm.

The storm Of the rast week
which has swept from the tropic
north and covered the central
portion of our gulf coast has been
one of the most destructive in
history. While there has been
comparatively a small loss of
human life, the list continues to
grow as information is received,
and it is now evident that the
numbers who were swept beneath
the waters will run into the hun
dreds. Pensacola and Mobile
suffered most. The former city
has been exceptionally fortunate
since it was destroyed ITO years
ago, and comparatively little
damage has occurred there since
that time. The loss now reaches
many millions of dollars in loss
of property, while it will require
years to replace the buildings
and wharves which were swept
away by the fury of the winds
and waves. Mobile, also, has
been the victim of the storms
greatest fury and the beautiful
city has suffered in a manner to
dishearten her citizens. Beauti-
full churches, parks, hotels and
the magnificent wharves which
have been the gateway for so
much of the commerce of the city
have been damaged to such an
extent that it is impossible to es-
innate the cost to repair it. The
gulf coast suffered greatly and
the timber section of Mississippi
has been damaged to the extent
of $40, 900, 900. This loss is be.
