CHALLENGING ATTORNEY o'cossoa.

Sioux City gunners have concluded
that spring shooting is doomed. Hav-
ing come to this conclusion they pro-
pose TO have concessions in the way Of
fall shooting or to fight the law. In
ctdentaliy a considerable number OF
them have been shooting ducks this
spring in defiance of the law and under
cover OF Warden Hiashaws iN-adV!sea
proclamation to the effec- that Iowa
would not assist the federal govern
ment in enforcing the prohibition
against spring shooting. 500 Gun
Club membership has agreed to pro-
tecc any hunter arrested for spring
shooting.
The Sioux City Journal says that
the inactivity Of The federal officers is
not understood up that way. 1t states
that names Of the hunters who have
wilfully violated the law are known to
the federal authorities. Il calls atten-
ton to the repeated assurances Of Fed
eral Attorney O'Connor and his as
sis,ant, Grover VI. Nease, that the law
would be enforced strictly in north
ern Iowa and says the failure to carry
out these assurances is not understood
by the sportsmen.
All over Iowa the law has been fair
~ kept by men whose use * has been
TO spend from week to month
shooting ducks in the spring which
sport might be had in Iowa. The Sioux
City bunch of insurgents seem TO have
paid small attention to the law or the
threats of OConnor. Those spertsmen
who have accepted the law and re-
| Trained from violations are as much az
| loss 10 understand how the Sious
City duck pirates can get away with
| it as is the Journal and the law abiding
| sportsnlen Of northwest Iowa. And
| they wonder also whether the federal
attorney was bluffing or whether he
intends to make good on his assertions
! There is no reason why the duck
! shooters of the Missouri ani the Mis-
sissippi should not organize and fight
/ the law if they see fit. There is a
very good reason why they should no;
| be permitted to defy it with IMMUNITY
while others abide by 1t. And it will be
generally agreed that the business Of
a federal attorney is to see that fedora

have agreed to stand behind any hunt.

easy time OF it
During the past few years in New
York, Chicago and other cities 1t has
come to hight that the setting of fires
Is actually a trade-that firebugs have
their price and can be hired to do
job" as might carpenter or plumb
err But prison sentences which have
been dealt out to leaders Of arson
gangs has had a somewhat deterrent
effect on their operations.
Suspicious fires in Sioux City have
been numerous, but little has come In
the way of actual results from all the
investigations that have been under
taken in connection with them. The
futility Of these Investigations. in fact
might we'll encourage firebugs to con-
tinue their activities.
It would seem as though the authori-
ties might be entitled to more sub
etantial support from the insurance
companies in any effort they may make
to run down such offenders. 1t Is the
Insurance companies which stand the
greater share Of the fire loss. On
total loss OF 34e3,ss2 during the year
they paid S3s7,s53. Indeed. 1t IS the in
sured building and the insured STOCK
that are the natural marks for the fre-
bug. If insurance companies wouio
instruct agents to satisfy themselves
beyond doubt as to the absence o.
any suspicion in connection with the
origin Of the IRE, before making settle
ment of claims, considerable forward
step would have been taken in the DIS
couragement Of incendiarism.
In the meantime, the ne* fire pre-
vention committee Of the commercial
club. acting in cooperation with the
council may be able to rectify defects
in the present system OF fire inspection
In Sioux City and make serious busi-
ness Of preventing fires not only os
way Of keeping Easements and alleys
clear Of infiammable material and con-
demning menacing buildings but n'
following up each fire with an investl.
CATION, to be succeeded when warranted
by vigorous prosecution.
