The Bismarck Tribune is eminently
correct when it says that the appoint
ment OF c. A. Hale, of Grand Forks, as
game warden to succeed F. w.
Schlechter, resigned, will meet with
the hearty approval of the sportsmen
in the northern part of the state. The
protection of game is largely depend
ent upon the game warden. 1t should
be the aim of the sportsmen to see that
game is protected, since they are the
persons who will suffer when it is de-
stroyed. The average man eats beef
and tame chicken and is not at all de-
pendent upon the supply Of wild game
for existence. The sportsman is pos
sessed of that instinct which gives zest
to his existence when he is following
the deer or waiting for the rise of the
grouse. Game shooting should be a
scientific and reasonable pursuit of
wild fowl-not slaughter for full
game bag. There are those who ar
que that game should not be shot at
all. 1t is doubtful if the quick and
scientific killing of fowl is cruelty, in
any very reprehensible degree. But
the killing of birds out of season, and
the killing of larger quantities than
can we'll be consumed for food, is rep
rehensible and the sportsmen them
selves should see that it is prevented.
