Musical Art Club

Wednesday evening members Of the
literary section Of the Musical Art club
enjoyed one of the most interesting pro-
grams of the year. Supt. E. B. Berg
quist of the city schools gave an in
teresting talk on "How the Citizen
Comes in Contact with the Govern
ment.' He discussed citizenship and
how we may become citizens; the con-
fusion caused by the differences in state
laws concerning citizenship; naturaliza-
tion and the naturalization courts; the
immigrant and the benefits Of citizen
ship. He stated that while there are
about 10 million of US who are citi-
zens by adoption in the U. S., there are
about million aliens who are SO either
because they do not care to become cit
izens or who are Of too recent arrival.
Here he touched ON the work of the
city's night schools along this line. He
discussed at length government by par
ty. He gave the history Of the parties,
and dealt not only with the American
parties and their platforms, but the par
ties of other countries. He also stated
that gradual changes in our government
are as inevitable as changes in our So
portation, but to effect changes by
peaceful means and through regularly
Esonstituted channels is not treason. In
touching on local government, he e.
ferred to our recently changed charter
and to the fact of it's having referen-
dunn, initiative and recall measure.

OF INTEREST to
LOCAL .SP0RTSlNEN
FINANCIAL RRPoRT OF TIE MIN
NE9OTA> GAME AND FISH
COMMISSIONERS :

The department has been more than
self-sustaining for the past five years.
For the year ending June 30 1919,
there was only q small balance because
the year included only eleven months,
and collections were not made for the
year when the books were closed. The
total revenues produced by the depart
ment in six years, including fines, has
been $l,050, 1884. Disbursements
have amounted to $S37,090.30 in the
same period. It should be understood
in considering the finances of the de-
partment, that all revenues produced by
the department, except fines are paid in
to the state treasurer, and the fines in to
the county treasurers. The support Of
the department is derived wholly from
appropriations made by the legislature.
The argument that all funds derived by
the state treasurer through game and
fish laws should be used in game and
fish conservation seems unbearable, and
tits generally admitted to be fair.
There could even be no valid objection
to requiring the general tax levy to bear
a share Of the burden of wild life con-
servation were it necessary but it
seems not to be required, there being
an opportunity for substantial increase
in appropriations before the game and
fish revenues are exhausted. =.
The question is often raised as to the
comparative amount of revenue derived
from the fishers and from hunters. It
will be noted from the following figures
that it is about equal. The expendi-
lures may be said to bear about the
same relation. I: -
Revenue derived through the game
