THE GAME HOG.

In recent issue of Portland
newspaper there appears cut of
four persons and several strings of
salmon trout which they took from
the waters of the Coquille river re-
Gently in few hours angling. Accord
ing to the statement of the leader of
the party shown in the picture, who
is a Portland merchant the string
contains 397 trout The leading fish
erman says fishing is "good in the
Coquille." He is undoubtedly right,
but, If a few more hogs of the same
variety as that which composed his
party, find time enough to get away
from their business on a short vaca-
ton, it won't be their fault If the
fishing ceases to be as good as at
present. 1t is such actions as this
above noted that makes game laws
necessary and that causes the expend-
iture of large sums annually to force
people to obey them. We don't know
whether there is any law against such
wholesale slaughter of fish as that
shown by the Portland party, but If
there isn't there should most certainly
be one enacted. The sort of exultation
or feeling that induces people to pose
in a picture accompanied by such in
disputable evidence of their hoggish-
ness, is certainly not one of sports
manship. No true sportsman will
slaughter game or fish merely for the
joy of it, but, when he secures enough
for his needs he finds no further en-
tertainment in killing just for the
"fun of it." The game hog is respon-
sible for the extinction of many valu-
able game animals, and he has come
to be an individual wholesomely de-
spised by all true sportsmen. Why he
should persist in Dragging about his
prowess in the slaughter and pose as
sportsman" in the public prints, is
unexplainable unless attributable to
an unnatural egotism.
Such displays should bring the
blush of shame to the cheek of all true
men and women who hold in their
hearts a proper appreciation of the
life of the forest, field and stream
Any man who will kill merely for the
sake of killing, is not a good citizen
any way you approach him.

of people were killed following
senseless cry of fire" by small boy,
has given rise to much activity on the
part of the authorities of various
cities This has resulted in agitation
for more thorough facilities for exits
in the theaters and in many instances
1t has been found that proper proVis-
ion had not been made for emergen-
cies The thought of what might oc-
cur in many of the motion picture
theaters of the country, following
sudden alarm of fire, causes one to
shudder with apprehension. But
while conditions are often well-knoWn,
it requires a horror like that OF last
week, or the Iroquois disaster, to move
the authorities to action. For time,
then, reforms are promulgated ana
things are run with stern hand un-
til matters are placed on compara-
lively safe basis. AS the years go by
and no disaster results the people
grow careless and forgetful and relax
their vigilance, and death and destrucr
ton follows.
