THE WAY OF THE PELICAN
THE Tribune is in receipt of

G.. Thompson, superintendent of
the United States fish hatchery at
Bozeman, with reference to a fish
hog who levies a heavy toll on our
trout. This fisherman is a bird
known as the pelican. There are
said to be about five hundred of
these white pelicans living around
Yellowstone lake in the national
park and they are accused of de-
stroying more trout than one fish
hatchery can supply in a season.
Mr.. Pelican does not spear trout
with his big bill, we are informed.
He seines them with the balloon
like bag he carries under his big
jaw, and is pretty cunning in his
use of that net. Often we are told
a number of white pelicans will
make a drive by striking the water
with their wings to the fish
and drive them into shallow water
near the shore where they can
scoop them up more efficiently
with their net attachment. They
also get busy in the spawning sea
son when the fish go to the shall
low water to spawn and destroy
great quantities of fish in that way.
Mr.. Thompson lectured before the
K;wanis club in Great Falls recent
ly and told the members something
about these fish robbers. We un-
derstand a single pelican shot re-
Gently on the Yellowstone lake in
the park had 256 fish in his craw.
Mr.. Thompson thinks they should
be destroyed in the interest of the
sportsmen as their depredations on
the trout threaten the extermina-
ton of the fish, and he would be
pleased to have fish clubs inform
themselves Of the facts and act on
them.
The pelican is a gentleman of
ancient lineage, but for thousands
of years he travelled on a false
reputation. Someone with a lively
IMAGINATION claimed that the peli-
cans fed their young ones from
blood drawn from their own breasts
and the legend gained general cur
rency. AS a matter Of fact they
feed their young with partly d.
gested fish which they regurgitate
from their ample stonachs. Their
bill is red on the end. and the color
of blood, and someone who saw
them feeding their young from a
considerable distance probably
started this story of the self sac
rificing pelican. AS a result in the
early ages of the church someone
used the pelican as a type OF
Christ, feeding his body and blood
to his children of the church. So
the pelican founded a sort of sacred
reputation that protected him n
those days. But perhaps his best
protection lay in his habit of get
ting away from the haunts OF men
in lonesome and inaccessible areas.
The bible speaks often OF the pell-
can and associates him with the
wilderness places.
We do not know how the cam
paign for the determination of the
pelican in Montana will progress.
From Mr.. Thompson's tale he is
doubtless a greedy and dangerous
pest % the trout. But doubtless
the pelican will have his friends
and defenders when it ONE to a.
proposition to outlaw and extermi-
nate these birds. The fact that
some sentimental ideas, albeit with
out much foundation in fact, have
clustered about the pelican family
will have a tendency to make their
determination unpopular.

BONDS FOR BONUS

NEW YORK, February 1.-THE
