WARNING ISSUED
BY GAME WARDEN
Fur Bearing Animals Protected by
Law, Including Muskrats, Skunks,
Rabbits and Squirrels.

County Fish and Game Warden E. Fl.
Metcalf gives warning that persons must
not destroy or interfere with muskrat
houses or set traps at the entrance there
to or upon them, as it is not only against
the law and subjects one to a fine but
tends to exterminate these valuable fur
bearers. All traps set for fur bearing
animals must be tended once every "A
hours, and failure to SO tend them sub
jects the trapper to a fine of $40 if he
is convicted
Furs are very valuable this year, but
if eagerness to accumulate money by trap
ping leads to violation of the law the
profits are liable to be diminished con-
siderably
Skunks are not to be dug out or smoked
out Rabbits can only be taken with a
gun, and only five can be possessed at
one time The grey squirrel season closes
Nov. 80, and but five can be possessed at
one time. Neither rabbits nor squirrels
can be sold.

and the men were called out of the
trench, and they had just reached firm
ground when the cave-in occurred. Had
they not gotten out just as they did

ditch will be filed by night, prepara-

HITCHCOCK SEES
A COMPROMISE
Thinks President Will Send
Treaty Back to Senate
Next Session
MUCH SPECULATION
OVER LODGES VIEW
Democratic Senators Hardly Think
Treaty Reservations Will Be Submit
ted In Next Political Campaign =
Lodge Asks Popular Verdict.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 22.-Whether
further compromise efforts are to be
made to ratify the peace treaty or the
whole controversy thrown into the 1920
presidential campaign for decision was
a question which aroused lively specu
lation today in official and political
circles.
It was agreed everywhere that the
statement issued last night by Repub-
lican Leader Lodge declaring the time
for compromise had passed and that it
was his desire that the majority reser-
vation program be carried into the cam
paign had advanced materially the
movement to leave the treaty situation
Just as it is for the present and give
the people q chance to decide the issue
next year
The first expressions of administra.
tion senators regarding the statement
were defiant in tone though they still
predicted that before the campaign be-
gan the Republicans would come into
compromise agreement that would
make ratification possible.
Senator Hitchcock, the administra.
tion leader, declared that, while the
Democrats would be loath to see the
| treaty made political issue, they
would accept it if the Republicans in.
sisted with entire confidence of the out
come Senator Hitchcock predicted
that President Hitchcock would re-sub
nit the treaty at the beginning of the
next session of congress on Dec. /, ant
that compromise would result.
