States mail on their outward voyages
and II knot ships shall have. 50 a mile
There was inserted an important
provision requiring that if two or more
steamship lines shall be established
from Atlantic ports, under the act, the
second one to be established will be re-
quired to stop at two ports south of
Cane Charles. This amendment was
forced by Senator Bacon of Georgia,
and his object was to stimulate south
ern trade in cotton goods, naval stores
and lumber with South American ports.
1t is provided in the act that the
postmaster general shall not pay in
bonuses for carrying the mails during
any one year, any more than the esti
mated receipts from the foreign mail
service.
The bill was passed without divi
sion; but it was strangely championed
by a. number of southern senators, not
ably Bacon of Georgia, and Simmons
of North Carolina.

AS TO HUNTING LICENSE.

Mr.. James Henry Rice, secretary OF
the Audubon society for South Caro-
lima has sent to the press the following
with regard to the license imposed
against non-residents for hunting priv
ileges in this state:
The legislature Of South Carolina
provided for a license Of non resident
hunters many years ago. This license
was fixed at $25, but was seldom, II
ever, collected. The amount was re-
duced at the session Of 1907 to SO, with
25 cents fee to the clerks Of the court
for issuing said license. Practically
every state in the Union has a nom
resident license, and some Of them ex-
act a license of $50. In others the IL
cense is good for only one county and
has to be renewed in each county the
hunter enters.
The Audubon society Of South Car
olina, has labored under many difficult
ties in trying to collect this non-resi-
dent license. The old law permitted a
guest to hunt without paying this IL
cense and some are not aware of the
change. If mans guest were allow
ed to hunt without license then there
would be an end of license, for each
somebody. This may in some individ-
ual cases work hardships, but it Is per
haps impossible to point to regula-
ton Of any kind that would not work
hardship to somebody.
The states right to exact this license
has been passed on by the United
States supreme court and settled for
ali time The money collected from
nonresident licenses goes into the
hands Of the state treasurer, where It
is placed to the credit Of the game
protection fund.-" and Is drawn out
and used for enforcing the game laws.
All good citizens should insist on Wis
itors paying this license and report
them when they fail to pay 1t.
Between 5000 and 1000 men come in
to South Carolina annually to hunt.
but this year the merest fraction OF
them will pay license. The Audubon
society has pursued the policy this
year of not prosecuting a man who
hunted without license provided ne
paid the license on demand. Hereat-
ter all parties found hunting without
license will be indicted and fined for
each day they hunt without license.
There are sufficient resident IL
censes to support vigorous enforce
ment Of the game laws If these licenses
are collected. In the present instance
the weakness Of the society has been
presumed on, and it's confidence has
been generally abused.
The natural and inevitable presump-
ton for. the future will be that the man
who hunts without license Is trying to
eyade the payment
