where the speakers were seated, he was
unable to find in his pocket coin of suf

of the son of Ham who was delegated to
look after his wants, and he took out a
roll and peeled bill off the top The
waiter then went down the line and every
man from Tom Cheney's end to Gov.
Bells was able to see that some one had
dropped bill on theplate. Immediately,
on the vice president being introduced by

The Hunters License
Randolph Herald and Newsl

1t wasn't the size of the tax on tea that
disturbed our fathers but the principle.
| 1t isn't the amount of the extra fee above
the legal price charged the hunters for
| licenses by some town clerks that disturbs
| the hunters, but the fact thgt somewhere
| there is manifest miscarriage of the
law, and they are being overcharged. The
trouble seems to be traceable right to
State Fish and Game Commissioner FL. G..
Thomas OF Stowe, who prepared the
license blanks and application blanks.
The law says that the hunter shall Sub
scribe to his application, but Mr..
Thomas fitted in legal form of oath, to
be taken before a qualified officer. The
fee of this officer is twenty-five cents and
town clerks who are notaries at once saw
a chance to get an extra stipend for the
process of issuing the licenses and some
of them have charged the full fee, while
others asked ten cents. The result is the
same as though the fee was seventy five
or sixty cents and as the hunters counted
on paying but half dollar every one of
them is mad, usually at the town clerk,
who pleads that he is taking no extra
"perque" himself. Our opinion of this
whole hunters license business re-
mains unchanged. 1t is piece of rot,
unjustified and ill-advised. We have got
ten along IN Vermont very comfortably
for 1875 years without taxing people for
the right to hunt and putting them to the
bother of going through mess of red
tape to get license. 1t will amount to
nothing except to provide funds for the
commissioner to spend as he pleases in
his work. There will be no improvement
in hunting and no purpose served at all
sufficient to compensated
Bennington Banner]
Attorney General Sargent has straight
ened out the mistakes of the fish and
game commissioner in regard to the
hunters license law by declaring that no
oath is required by the law and that no
town clerk is authorized to collect more
than so cents for the license under any
circumstances. Attorney General Sar-
gent supports in full the statement made
by the Banner month ago just before
the law went into effect. The law should
not be blamed for the blunders of the
fish and game department in attempting
to put it in force. The law has been in
effect less than a month but it is evident
that it is serving the purpose for which it
was intended. Indications are that it
will yield revenue of six thousand to
eight Thousand dollars year for the fish
and game department. This will enable
the stocking, of trout streams to four
times the extent that has ever before
been possible. 1t will also permit the
improvement of the hunting by stocking
covers and charging the warden service
to drive out the pot hunters. Every real
hunter and fisherman in the state is
pleased with sthe law, the only regret
among most of them being that the fee is
not fixed at one dollar $50 as to yield
more revenue. No law was ever put in
force in Vermont that was more accept
able to those most interested. The only
kicking against it comes from those who
know but little about fish and game and
are not interested in their protection and
increase.
