DUTY TO THE COMMUNITY,

Before the registration books close next
Wednesday, every voter and prospective
voter should see that he is properly en-
rolled to participate in the approaching
municipal election. Next to his family and
business, a mans greatest duty is to his
town, and disfranchisement will simply
mean that he is derelict.
Next months election is an important
one. Every man should give his choice
mature thought; it is his duty to vote; it
is his duty to vote conscientiously.

Toppy began looking for somebody

BROWN HAS HOPES
OF GETTING DARCY
DECREE REVERSED
Believes Governor Was Mis-
informed About Austral-

tween Jim Flynn and Jack
Dillon.

New York, March 3.-Grant Hugh
Brown is a glutton for punishment
He just grinned today, crossed his
fingers, knocked on hunk of wood he
has begun carrying around for that
purpose. and announced that Jim Flynn
and Jack Dillon will stage one of their
semi annual contests in place of Dill
Ion and Les Darcy Monday evening in
Madison Square garden.
Brown believes Governor Whitman
has been misinformed and declared he
will make an effort to have the execu-
tive's ban on Darcy raised just as soon
as he gets around to 1t.
Brown says he understands The gov
ernor has been led to believe that
Darcy and Dillon were to engage
each other in one of the old time
knock 'em dead finish fights. That,
of course, couldn't be done under the
law, and Brown is going to tell him
that. Then he is going to say Darcy
and Dillon never had any intention of
violating the law.
DARCY QUITS TRAINING.
Darcy is too shocked to talk. He
doesn't know what he is going to do,
but he has knocked off training and
has come to New York to make plans.
He feels that he has not been treated
exactly fair. He was under age, he
argued. when he left Australia and con-
sequently couldn't have been con-
scripted even if CONSUMPTION had been
adopted. He also says he tried several
times to enlist. but his mother would
not give her consent.
Darcy thoughtfully left Australia two
days before he was 81 years old. Con-
scription was voted on and turned
down after he was at sea.

Grafton of sportsmen, for the reason
that game and wish in quantities are
found far removed from civilization
and when one travels far enough to
find game and fish in abundance he
is so far removed from the paths of
game wardens that little danger ex-
lists of his arrest should he violate the
laws. Eor this reason the sportsmen
are more than anxious to cooperate
with the game department in the pro-
lection and propagation of game. A
solution of the decrease in game does
not depend entirely upon its protec-
ton, but to a large extent upon propa
cation, and the sportsmen of this state
are anxious to see a portion of the
fund. which they contribute, invested
in the purchase and propagation of
game birds. This has been done to
such limited extent as to amount to
nothing. For instance in 1915. g.
07S residents of the state of Idaho
bought fish and game licenses and of
this sum only s72 YVES spent in the
purchase of quail and pheasants."
(See page 10. report of State Game
Warden for 1915-1916)
SMALL PERCENTAGE SPENT.
In 1916, 49,657 residents of the state
of Idaho purchased fish and game IL
censes and of this sum only $1,000
was spent in the purchase of quail
and pheasants." (See page 81 of re-
port.) AS shown by said report, no
other game birds were purchased or
propagated in 1915 and 1916, and this
Notwithstanding the fact that said re-
port shows the fish and game depart
ment during these two years received
$109, 262.34. and had q balance in cash
on hand Jan. 1, 1917, of s15,O9S.O4.
These figures are not cited for the
purpose of criticising the game de-
partment or the state game warden,
but we feel II he would get in closer
touch with the sportsmen of this state
and permit the thousands of sportsmen
who maintain this department to as
sist in the expenditures of the funds
which belong to them, the game con-
ditions in this state can be benefited,
which is the object of us all
NO VIOLATION OF LAWS.
The Idaho State Fish and Game Pro-
tective association would go much fur
Their in protecting the game and be
much more effective than any law
WHICH can De placed upon the statute
books. For instance, every member of
the association pledges himself that he
will not personally violate the game
laws and that he will use his best en-
deavor to prevent others from such
violation. We would go further than
this; we would require every man who
purchases license to make oath that
he will not violate the game laws of
this state and that he will endeavor to
prevent others from such violation,
and we would make this oath a part
of the consideration for the state is
suing the license. and a wilful viola
ton thereof should be perjury, and
punishable as such.
The sportsmen want to work hand
in hand with the game department but
this cannot be done If the game war
den and his deputies meet and draft
game bills, ignoring sportsmen asso-
