Moose Case to Law Court

The moose case" which has at
tracted much attention in Bangor and
vicinity. has been referred to the
Maine Law Court on an agreed state
nent of facts. DR.. Jarvis B. Woods
of Bangor went moose hunting in
New Brunswick last October, paying
the Canadian license for hunting. He
shot moose, paid the United States
customs duty on it at the rate Of l L
cents a pound and all transportation
charges to Bangor
When the moose arrived in Bangor
it was seized by Chief Game Warden
Frank NJ. Perkins under the Maine
fish and game laws. which make il
illegal to transport moose in Maine
in the Maine moose close time when
ever and wherever shot" Warden
Perkins interpreted the law to cover
the moose even if it was shot in New
Brunswick. The moose was placed in
cold storage and has been there ever
since.
DR.. Woods brought suit against
Warden Perkins. claiming tina, the
moose was seized without due var
rant or process Of law. The Bangor
municipal court ruled for the State
and an appeal was made. Willis E.
Parsons. State Fish and Game Com

Why Freight Rates Are High

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS 1NSNOIup
At the Union Station in Birming-
ham. according to Robert Small. a
reliable correspondent in Washing
ton. two men were employed as fire
men, one having the day and the 9TH
er the night shift. One of them was
required to turn on the station cleo
trio lights in the evening; the other
to turn them off in the morning.
The electricians entered into d
new working agreement with the
Southern Railway. A walking dele
gate appeared and told the two fire.
men that they were entitled to be
rated as electricians because they
turned the lights on and off, The
flremen thereupon applied for the
advance rating. They got it. More
than that, each was given $4,000 in
back pay under a retroactive clause,
Many instances Of the same sort of
wild and criminal extravaganza
keep coming to light. No wonder
that labor is demoralized. and no
wonder that freight rates are high.
The incident is indica tive Of what
can always be expected under Gov
eminent ownership or control.

Japan Buys German War Inventions


From correspondent in Berlin
comes the information that Japan
with great secrecy is negotiating for
the purchase Of certain patents Of
war inventions used by Germany
during the latter part OF the war
Included In the lot are types OF ma
chine guns, liquid fire and gaseous
chemicals ard a new rapid fire gun
adapted for fighting airplanes.
These instruments are not being
purchased with the idea Of service in
the Siberian campaign against the
oolshevists. and the extreme secrecy
and jealous care with which the deal
has been guarded are looked upon
as giving particular interest in the
matter now that il is out. Japan
appears to be intent on increasing
her military and air equipment TO
the highest point OF modern efficiency
for the future. The negotiations are
being conducted by representatives
of the japanese government on the
one hand and private German inter-
ests on the other. It is asserted that
The present German government has
no claim on war inventions and as
privately owned patents they are be-
ing sold to the highest bidder. The
informant does not mention whether
other bidders besides the japanese
we're considered.
These facts only add interest to
the Old question: What is Japan go
ing to do? Japan hasn't told the
world what she proposes to do. She
has at present a grip on China and
she must decide for herself whether
she will extend her advantage, il it
can be called that, in Siberia. She
is to have a share in the former
German colonies in the Pacific ISL
ands. She has authorized a big in
crease in the power Of her navy.
Whether she is going to do anything
or not she is not going to be caught
mapping. She is going to trust in
the League Of Nations and buy war
inventions.
Meantime she is giving the world
something to think about and it may
for future reference.
