OPEN SEASON MONDAY
IN NEW HAMPSHIRE
Will Continue Is Days-Wincheste
Star Says Number of Deer Is
Constantly Growing Less.

Beginning next Monday morning,
Dee. !, and continuing for - days. il
will be lawful to XIII deer in New
Hampshire.
The Winchester Star says: 1t is
generally concede that the number of
deer hereabouts is small and is con
stantlv decreasing. Legislative action
should lac taken to protect the deer as
we'll as squirrels, and II is TO be hoped
that when the next general court con
yeues some good sportsman in attend
ancc will introduce a bill that will pre-
vent the deer from being completely
anmhilatcd
There are three reasons for the
scarcity OF deer in this locality FIRST
since the law went off in 1905 total
81 10 deer have been killed in Win
chester alone, and the number must
certainly be less now by that reason.
Second, the open season on deer has
inst closed in Massachusetts and the
estimate OF deer killed there is placed
at 400 Being our next door neighbor
It is likely that Massachusetts, sports
men have thinned the New Hampshire
deer ranks. as these animals claim no
particular state as a residence and
roam hither, thithef and yon at will.
Third. Vermont has just had a deer
killing season with reports of several
hundred deer killed. This affects hunt
ing conditions here in a manner similar
10 that mentioned in the case of Mas
Sachusetts.
Figures from the Star files show tn,
number of deer killed in the respective
years since il became legal to shoot
them here as follows: 190S-34, 1905
-32. I9lo-32, 19l1-1l, 19l2-l0
From this It is seen that in the las
two wears the number has fallen of
two-thirds. indicating that the deer ar
constantly growing less in number. -

with that privilege. The defeat of the
Jones bill giving entire control to the
islanders within eight years is assured
Senator O'Gorman. who is opposed to
fixing any definite time for giving the
Filipinos a free hand. takes the view
that they may not be equal to the task
for one or two generations or even
longer. AS the senator from New York
is close to Governor Wilson, it may be
assumed that he has so advised the
president elect. The granting of indie
pendence to the Philippines is Of so
little urgency that the question will
not even be taken up by the senate at
the forthcoming special session of con-
gress, according to Senator O'Gorman.
Senator Simmons. who probably will
be chairman of the committee on
finance; Senator Martin and other
Democratic Senat'VS more than
enough to prevent overturning the
present system OF administering the
affairs of the Philippines-are inclined
to oppose the Jones bill. Only few
Democrats, such as Senator Johnston.
favor giving the Philippines independ
ence at once.
Others, like Senator Gore and Sena-
tor Stone. say that the islands should
be neutralized. if that could be accom-
plished, remaining under the protec
ton of the United States, before any
step in the direction of autonomy is
taken But the more conservative
view that it is best TO wait until the
educational work undertaken by the
United States has shown its effect
seems to prevail generally.
The Jones bill granting the islands
an Independent government within
eight years is so far from the minds
OF Democratic senators that few have
considered the question ut all.
Senator Williams, who was one of
the originators of the SO called
bridge government" for the gradual
REIMBURSEMENT of control over the is
lands, expressed the opinion that the
time fixed should not be less than
eight years and that the United States
should retain Il certain control over the
relations of the island with foreign
governments by the appointment of
an American secretary for foreign af-
fairs. who should be responsible to the
state department in Washington, and
that the granting of independence
should not take place for a much
longer time than eight years, certainly
not less than fifteen.
Senator Martin took the ground that
there is no immediate necessity for
taking up the Philippine question now
He thought that the Jones bill allowed
too short time for the transition.
IN view of the attitude of the leaders
in the senate. which undoubtedly has
been made known to Governor Wilson.
II is not probable that either the eX
ecutive or legislative department after
March will take any step toward
abandoning the control of the United
States over the Philippines. which, as
President Taft said. is SO necessary To
their own we'll being.
