people to come here and according to
| Mr.. E. p. Ricker's statement in the
papers the other day. in reply to

and absurd statement made by Mr.

Maine Sportsmen's Fish and Game AS
ISOLATION for several years. We finally
! decided, and the Legislature adopted
our recommendation some years ago,
! that it was fair enough to all parties
! to have a bounty of five dollars on
bears. That is, as l understand, the
present law.
! Now this year before our commit
tee on inland fish and game, this bill
was brought in, applying to Washing
ton county. And a gentleman came
in and urged that we add Penobscot.
Well. we did; putting it up to fifteen

teen dollars was a pretty high price.

out and hunt bears and get bounty.
And it seems to me while we are in the

and this Legislature is regarding the
word economy" that we don't want
to pun that bounty up to fifteen dol
lars.
But l voted for it. first applying to
those two counties, in the committee.
Now they are adding amendments to
this, putting in other counties, and I
