RELIEF FOR CIGAR MANUFAC-

The cigar manufacturers of tfe State have felt it an injustice to be compelled to pay an internal revenue tax on the cigars which they give to their employees for their own use. as tue present law requires them to pay out something where there is nothing confng it. Congressman Thomas l.. Reilly of the Second district has in- troduced in Congress a bill giving them the relief desired. by exempting such cigars from taxation.

cycle race which ended at 10 o'clock
Saturday night I'm Madison Square
Garden. The Fogler-Clark team fin
ished one lap ahead of six other teams
punched in a tie for second place.
The finish lacked the excitement OF
the windup Of six-day races in recent
years. Fogler and Clark practically
won the race at an early hour Sat
urday morning, when a series OF sensa-
tional spirits resulted in their gaining
a lap on the entire field. The advan-
tage thus gained was held to the fin
ish.
The winners were IS miles laps
behind the record Of 2.737 miles ant

SPORTING DEPARTMENT
ROWFTT APPROVES
LONG DEER SEASON
oooEeIc SPORTSMAN, HOWEVER
is ABLE TO SEE MANY
SHORTCOMINGS IN
GAME LAWS.

One champion Of the early and long
deer season. which has been generally
by upper peninsula sports
men. has been found in John Rowett,
sheriff Of Gogebic county and for many
years a deputy game warden. Mr.. Row
EFT. however, declares that the present
Michigan game laws are the most un-
reasonable of those OF any state in the
Union, and i'm last weeks Bessemer
Herald suggests a number Of desirable
changes.
Mr. Rowett believes that the season
for all kinds of ducks should open and
close at the same time and recon-
mends Sept. Is TO Dec. 81 as the proper
period. He declares the partridge sea-
son opens too late and would have the
opening date made not later than oct.
/. He also advises amending the pres
ent law so that a bird dog may be
taken into the woods during the deer
season without danger of arrest
Mr.. Rowett further declares himself
In favor of a state game commission, 10
De appointed by the governor, which
body could determine the proper sea-
sons for different kinds of game. the
Legislators not being familiar with the
prime season for furs and the condi-
| ton of game in various parts OF the
state. Concerning the protection of
| leer, Mr.. Rowett says:
1.-THE deer season, / think, opens at
| he right time as the animals are al
| hat time in their normal state. The
ong open season is better for the
| hunter and tends TO protect the deer
1 rs the hunters are not all in the woods
| At the same time. When the open sea
