SOUTHERN APPOINTMENTS
ARE TO Be HARD FOUGHT
TO ALLOW NORTH
ERN NAMES TO BE CON-
FIRMED, BUT NO OTHERS.

Washington, Dec. 9.-President
Taft's judicial appointments now De-
fore congress were considered today
by the senate judiciary committee.
No formal action was taken, but re-
publican members of the committee
received definite information that the
democrats in the senate probably
would try to hoio up many appoint
ments of judges and United States
attorneys in southern states, so that
the appointments would fall to Pres
ident Wilson after March 4.
The lines of the democratic fight
against appointments became clearer
today. 1t is understood the demo-
Gratis intend to permit the confirma-
ton of many appointments in Nor
thern states, where republican
strength controls, but to prevent af-
firmative action on judicial, postof-
fee and customs appointments in
many parts of the South.

CITY TO PURCHASE
PROPERTY ALONG
THE WATER FRONT
SPECIAL COMMITTEE RECON-
MENDS PURCHASE OF THE
w. II. WHALEY WHARVES.
COUNCIL TO ACT At ONCE.
n Order to Secure Further Appropri-
ations for Harbor improvements
All Municipalities Must Own Water
eront Property.

IN order to comply with federal
law providing that all seaport mum
eipalities must own some of its wa
terfront property before any further
appropriations will be made by the
government for harbor improvements,
city council last night took the first
step to the purchase of such prop
erty along the local river front in
order to comply with the new law
A special committee composed OF
Aldermen McKinnon and Hopkins,
submitted a brief report, stating that
they had looked into the question
thoroughly and saying fuHther that
the most available property to be
purchased along Brunswick's river
front at present was that known as
the Whaley tract, situated along the
bay between Dartmouth and Prince
streets. The committee reported
that this property could be pur-
chased for $4,000. The report of. the
special committee was referred to
council as a committee of the whole.
tance to seaport cities and many OF
them have already taken action, and
those not having previously owned
water front property have either
acquired it or PREPARED to do so. The
special committee, which was named
at the suggestion of the boart OF
trade, has been looking into the mat
ter in Brunswick some time and has
gone carefully over the sitoat1on.
The land owned by w. H. Whaiey
is considered very valoable property.
1t includes five lots and, in all occu-
pied $50 feet along the river front.
1t is probable that council, acting as
a committee of the whole, will at
once look into the matter and may
be in position to render definite re-
pcyt at the next regular meeting.

SPORTSMEN MUST KEEP
WITHIN THE BAG LIMIT

State Game Commissioner Mercer
has sent out the following notice to
sportsmen and hunters:
Reports come from all parts of the
state o. a particular and dangerous
infraction of the game law, that of
exceeding the bag limit of % part
ridges in one days hunt. The birds
are numerous and the temptation
tehrefore great, but the sportsman
who infracts that provision of the
law stands in his own light and does
himself and his neighbors a great in
Justice.
The bag limit is large, much larg-
er than most Of the states, and the
season is long, much longer than in
other well governed states. II will
be claimed, of course, that our large
bag limit and long open season be-
cause of the fact that we have more
birds than other states, but that is
no reason why we should pursue a
policy that will put us in class with
those states in which the bag limit is
five birds and the season limited to
a few weeks.
But those are not the only rea-
sons for strictly observing that re-
quirement OF the law, which prescribes
25 birds as maximum number for a
days hunt. The best reason is that
it's the law, and the law should be
obeyed, get the habit of keeping the
law, that is, do not get the habit of
breaking the law, for it ultimately
leads to trouble.
Keep within the bag limit at the
opening OF the season and 1t viii be
easier 70 ~esch the bag limit near the
o. ~nn, and increases the
sg plenty Of birds
