SEASON TOO
EARLY; BA BY
QUAIL DYING

Almost everyone interested in
birds will agree that the hunting
season opens too early.
A. H. Nelson, 91S Pacific ave.,
had q clincher of an argument to-
day and he made good use of it in
urging friends to use influence for
= later shooting season.
The argument was a baby quail,
scarcely larger than a humble bee.
AS he laid 1t on our desk, the
little bunch Of down trembled in
an esctacy of terror.
II picked 1t up in the woods
today" said Nelson. 1T isn't
more than two days old. The sea-
son opened yesterday, and al
though there are broods and
broods of baby quail in the up
land, our law says that we can
kill off the mothers and leave the
young to starve.
This little fellow will die, but
II he calls peoples attention to
what is going on he will not have
died in vain"
Because Of the ate season this
year quail are just beginning to
hatch out. Shooting the mother
birds is little less than crime.

Triangle Play
With Unusual
Story Arrives

Bessie Barriscale, who has
been rising steadily In the estima-
ton of Tacoma theater-goers,
comes to the Regent Sunday in a
ne Triangle hit, which gives
+ I a character that stands out
as one of the real big screen por-
trayals of the year. Louise

the Affections that come with
sudden wealth. Her mother and

able kind, her brother has become
drunkard and a hopelessly fool
ish young man, while her father
has become a rockbound cynic.
How Bessie Wheaton, the girl
impersonated by Miss Barriscale,
cures them of their alterations
makes a story of rare interest
punctuated by a great deal of
comedy.

BIRDSHOT IS
DEER KILLER

While hunting grouse In the
dense underbrush near Harding
yesterday morning, DR.. T. II. Me-
Nerthney of Tacoma walked right
up>to clearing with a 160-pound
doe standing in the center OF it.
The doctor only had a shotgun
with him. But he charged the
gun with No. z shot, and man.
euvered about until he had good
side shot. He brought down the
doe with one pull Of the trigger.
1t was the first deer reported by
a Tacoma hunter this season.
r. N. Hatcher, living at Stella
COON, shot the first pheasant and
J ID. Banes of Cashmere bagged
the first bear of the season.
The first casualty of the hunt
ing season came when Thomas
Booth of Shelton mistook G.. w.
Lewis, Shelton rancher, for a
deer, and fired at him, killing him
instantly. They were members of
the same hunting party.

Once before in it's history Wyom-

days of the free coinage of silver

In addition to these states re-

can extract any comfort from
these figures that will add a ro-

Hughes or Wilson.

1t is a little early to commence
compiling the probable vote the
presidential candidates will re-
ceive in the elections this fall,
but we offer this preliminary sur
vey for the consideration of the
enthusiastic democrats who pro-
fess to think Mr.. Wilson has a
cock-sure thing on his reelection
as President. 1t will require 266
electoral votes to put Mr.. Wilson
back in the White House, and

Business Administration.

In the speeches being made by
Mr.. Hughes on his trip through
the west he is reiterating with
force that what this country
needs is business ability applied
to the administration of govern
mental affairs. At first glance
this would seem almost a child
ish statement of an established
fact, but a little retrospection
will show that not only in nation
al, but state and county as we'll,
the public servant has always
had the conception that the Of
flee was private graft voted to
him and his friends, and that he
was the master of the people in
stead of being the hired man
charged to perform responsible
duties. This accounts for the
rotten condition existing in the
different divisions of the govern
ment, from president down to
road overseer. 1t is time now
for the people to wake up, and
insist that men for public office
must have the ability to serve
the people, be possessed of clean
characters and a virile integrity,
and keep ever in mind they are
the servants and not the dicta-
tors. If Mr.. Hughes speeches
do nothing but arouse the leth-
argy of the people to new awak-
ening of their duty and respon-
sibility to their own interests,
his trip through the west will be
productive of great good.
