With the opening of the hunting
season reports of accidental shoot
ings begin coming in from all
sources. These reports generally
appeal to US in degree as the victim
happens to be stranger, acquaint-
ance, friend or relative. But We
should really be concerned as much
in one case as in the other; or, at
least, to the extent that each of US
would appoint himself a committee
of one to see that at all times and on
all occasions there is no chance for
a load from a gun held in our hands
to find q human target. A true
sportsman viii invariably do this.
We have a fellow feeling for low
ers of the hunt and chase, and know
that if proper care is taken most of
the woe and misery that comes to
humanity during the hunting season
can be averted. Don't shoot until
you know what you are shooting at,
and never point your gun toward an
other person.

Editor of Nezperce Herald:
In reply to the article by Mr.. ],
B. Lehman, We would suggest that
this gentleman "stir up" his mind
by way Of remembrance.
That his tract was given to some
besides those connected With this
tent effort is true, and II is also true
that the same was a help in estab-
fishing them in the belief that Satur-
day is the day to keep.
The challenge made to Mr.. Leh-
man still holds good, as he did not
produce one single authentic proof
for Sunday. We are still waiting
patiently for it.
