GAME LAW
NEEDS FIXING.

The Sun is in favor of Il decided
change of some sort in the game law
with reference to the shooting of sage
chickens. AS the matter now stands in
this region, the law allows practically
all the birds to fall before the guns of
no~n-residents, who flock in from all
parts of the country on the first day of
the season, with automobile loads of
ammunition, automatic shotguns and
trained hunting dogs, II within three
days there is hardly a chicken left in
the country. Our erstwhile visitors are
then moving out and we are benefited
in no way by their presence except that
our lovely fields of sag brush are pro
tected for another year from the raw
ages of the tOothSome sage-eaterS.
The town or community benefits but
very little from the sudden influx of
hunters during the first few days of
August. The great majority of them
come supplied with everything they
might need for the few days necessary
to clean out our game, and local resi-
dents, who perhaps cannot leave their
business affairs and take to the fields
at daybreak on August first, are shut
out from the enjoyment of any such
delicacy as young sage chicken.
The majority of the visiting hunters
know little about sage chickens, and
kill young and old alike-everything
that rises-with the result that the
game is getting scarcer with each sue
ceeding year, and it is no wonder that
local residents who respect the law II
wait for the open season feel that moth
ing is accomplished thereby further
thai to play into the hands of the tour
list hunter, who is here only for the pur-
pose of getting the lions share of the
game. which also includes the share
, 1918-08-01

that should fall to the local sportsman.
The matter should be put up to the
state legislature this winter, with the
idea of changing this condition in some
mapner-either by a closed season on
the birds for n few years to allow them
to increase, or by a high-license for non
resident hunters. Even a wide-open
season the year around would be
greatly preferable to the present plan,
which is altogether in favor of the non
resident hunter.

Sam Smith Shot
From Ambush

Sam Smith Of the Mt. Point
neighborhood was shot from am:
bush Friday on his way thru the
Boguechitto swamp near Warner
ton, twelve buckshots being fired
into the center of his back and
producing instant death.
While there was no eyewitness
to the killing, George Smith, a
neighbor aud also kinsman of the
slain man, called up sheriff Bate
man and confessed to the crime
and asked that the officer come
after him. He was lodged in
jail in the night aud the grand
jury has been called for a special
meeting to investigate the matter
in advance of the November
term of court.
Sam Smith Is a son OF Mr..
Walter Smith one Of the best and
sturdiest men Of the parish, who
for years was president of the po-
lice jury and who, about six years
ago suffered a bereavement sim
| liar to this, in the murder Of his
eldest son, DR.. Milton Smith.
DR.. Smith was ambushed from
a point in the same swamp only
I, a few yards distance from where
his brother was killed Friday, tho
his murderer has never been ap.
pretended.
Ill feeling has existed between
George and Sam Smith for some
time, in fact it appears that
a case was pending before the
grand Jury in which George
! Smith was accused of having
broken the leg of a mule belong
ing to Sam Smith, and while it is
not known whether or not a full
statement has been made by the
murderer yet, it is generally un-
derstood that the crime was tho
