Sunday Shooting Case
Not Decided in Court

Bismarck, Sept 14.-North Dakota's
hunting laws had an airing in the Bis
marck courts today. In the supreme
court arguments were heard in the
test case OF the Sunday shooting law
and in, the district court before Judge
Nuessle, Game Warden VIM. Reko's
application for a writ of mandamus
compelling Secretary Geo. M. Hogue,
of the North Dakota game and fish
board to issue permit for the stor'
age of prairie chickens was received.
Judge Nuessle denied the writ and
it is probable that the case will go TO
the supreme court. Warden Reko
claims that the provision OF the ola
game law permitting the storing OF
prairie chickens has not been repealed
by the new act passed by the last leg
islature.
The test of the Sunday shooting law
came to the court under the title OF
the State of North Dakota VS.. A. r.
Davis, the defendant having been con-
victed in district court for shooting
crows on Sunday in violation OF the
state law. The defense raised the
question as to whether the law was
not intended only to prohibit pupnc
shooting such as exhibition gun tour,
naments and the like and contendeo
that it did not appeal to hunting.
Repeal Sunday Law. .
The states contention, as presented
by Assistant Attorney General roster
was that the statute did not limit
shooting to public exhibitions, ne
called the attention of the court 10
the fact that law was introduced al
the last session of the legislature to
repeal the Sunday shooting law and
that the legislature saw fit to repeal

Along the western front the enc

These, however were readily repulsed.
