Little Rock, Dec. 3i. r be- fore has there been th in- terest manifested in tn ,sition for the enactment of at | game protection laws. Many lars of the legislature have eessed themselves in favor of laws, although one member h. l that he would like to see fish caught from the streama every wild fowl or wild anim d, so there would not be sd talk about it.
 But the farmers are d. It has been stated by s, sons who are either repre- the market hunters of the are densely ignorant of )theT states are doing along IS o1 game protection, that 1 pee tive game conservati has been drawn in the inter few members of hunting t6 protect the member lest clubs.
 As a matter of fact, Me Ilheny of Avery Isl !; wealthy manufacturers, g great interest in the I ,ioI has been made of the de. livered by him to the en il Memphis, in which h l th' sportsmen of that cit o-ol. crate with the citizens ansa in protecting the wild f tn, state. But in these adinI statements it was nc t one, that MT. McIlheny doe, sI )nfln his work to LouisianaI ckan sas, but is leading a ndtt aove ment. He is establishing l tn aid of other beneyolbn son: refuges and resting place will fowl and birds thrbu tn United States, believing 1 y tn establishment of such erve the estates in which tn e To cated will forever be stt wit game and birds from { over flow.
 It is the intention fofl Nell heny, if the next genh mbl of Arkansas passes a DE le in terest of the conservati wll life in Arkansas, to estab 1 th state a preserve that ' '|'a( the attention of the ent ol Mr. McIlheny does not 1 any hunting club, nor Ina Jt fired a gun in Arkansas, )t he expect to do so. In O' of the hunting he does
 kodak, yet he is willing f. great deal of his time aas il erally of his money 10 I Ii will benefit the puhls" !. {.
 In regard to the .-res'haclu members, it may be said tpr hd' the present laws of Arb,t al the decision of the Supre tbuI they could ask for noth' lett, than they now have. Unyej la decision of the court, ar Tres dent has a perfect right 1 s,ht ( his own premises. Undea 5 d. cision it is impossible eve the nonresident from lSIhg the state. Then, so long F nol resident cannot be prohi fro hunting, it is argued thae, sta should get some revenue n hi by forcing him to pay d '' onah license for the privilege.
 It is contended that celin r strictions should be placehroul him, such as limiting thamou of game that can be killed,hd pr scribing at what season hehall Il kill. A bill of this charac, wou certainly not be in the itrest the nonresident hunter.
 There seems to be but lElihou i'll the minds of any of thI .hon value of birds, and as toe0 adece sity of the legislature mI orI soI provision for their adeqLl Jkote ton from useless slaughe: Su men as MT. McIlheny habntkn strumental all over thde, bn calling attention to thesekcJ Jitio and securing the adoptil If la Of conservation tha h 8brov most admirable in tileil ry iratil Arkansas is the only 8 2. 6in union that has not mad al bh pl visions for the presa Lion game from the depred,]IS of pot-hunter, and the con- ation birds that prove them Ris to the greatest friends of farm
