REMEDY POSSIBLE IS TO
PUT THE KAIBAB FOREST
INTO NATIONAL PARK

permit wastage of more than one
half of the natural resources of that
region as would be the case if the
wishes of the national park commits
sioner should prevail" says the game
warden, in referring to the effort be-
ing made by the park service to in
Iclude within its boundaries enough of
the Kaibab to insure the everlasting
protection of deer and forest
The people of Fredonia, Ariz., once
thought as Mr.. Willard does. But
they think so no longer.
They have felt the tide of tourist
travel. They, who have been suffer
ing financially for years as the cattle
business has retarded, have felt the
effect of the werrevenue-th tour
list. These good people saw the
slaughter of last year, and this year
as a unit, they protest against the
hunting. They want the deer pre-
served and they realize too that the
forest service is bent on the removal
of the deer, and as body, asked re-
Gently that the government extend the
boundary of the Grand Canyon ma
tional park a sufficient distance to
include the greater part of the deer
| herd and the summer and winter
range, knowing that the park service
protects the game.
The most important summer high
way in Arizona will be the one soon
to be built that will permit the thou
sands of tourists in the north to reach
Arizona and its attractions. This
Llnnl.03 hxr Loeb of n
connecting road, but government Of
ficiaIs declare this highway is de-
manded more by tourists today than
any other proposed route in the coun-
try. 1t will link up the national
parks of the north with the attrac-
tions of the southwest. 1t will change
the tide of western tourist travel-and
the road soon will be built, the Colo
RADIO river spanned and Utah brought
days nearer central Arizona.
If this region is maintained as a
great park, protected as the late
Emerson Hough advocated, made, in
conformity with his suggestion "The
Presidents Forest" it will bring busi-
ness for all time. With the Grand
Canyon it will be the nations great
est attraction. 1t is worth preserv-
ing.
Fate With The People
Today, the fate of this region rests
largely in ie hands Of the people of
Arizona.
Agents of the people who should
be fighting to preserve this region are
most active on behalf of its destruc-
ton.

the meeting referred to by Game
"Warden" Willard in his report to the
governor published last Friday in
The Gazette.
Estate Game Warden Willard was
present" says the report and did most
of the talking, though he stated he
was present merely by accident. 1t
was the idea of the park service that
the summer and winter range should
be evenly divided between the park
and the forest; deer inside the park to
be vigorously protected and the forest
perhaps to be thrown open to hunting
to conform with Arizona game law.
Willard opposed this measure very
vigorously, in fact, he constituted
himself the attorney for the forest
service.
"The next evening a delegation
from Fredonia appeared. They ad-
vocated that over half of the Kaibab
forest be added to the park and with
out exception were opposed to any
killing in the forest. Several cowmen
who are quite familiar with the Kali
bab forest, stated that there were sew
eral hundred deer killed by hunters
last fall that were left lying on the
ground; the mildest member OF this
delegation stated that several hunters
had told him in the evening that they
had fired a box of cartridges during
the day and when 20 cartridges were
fired by one man into this mass of
deer there was bound to be unneces-
sary killing. Mr. Willard's attitude at
this meeting was quite different from
his actions the night before. He did
not speak one single word and !
thought he had seen the light as to
way Arizonans on the north rim felt
about this matter. However, the next
day after the people of Fredonia had
returned home, he was more arro-
giant perhaps than the night the peo-
ple from haibab attended the hear
ing"
What Is His Authority?
By what construction of the duties
Of state game warden does Mr.. VIII
lard find authority to espouse the
cause of the forest service?
Where in the state, game law may
provision be found permitting the
waving Of a nonresident license fee
for hunters?
BY what authority does the state
game warden" waive the nonresi-
dent license fee so that Utah, Cali
fornia and Nevada hunters may shoot
tame deer, free from state license?
Such agreement between the state
game warden" and the United States
forest service is without authority.
Every man, woman and child IN
Arizona who wishes to save. the Kali
bab deer, preserve the Kaibab forest
for all time, and voice their desire
should write letter to Governor
Hunt before October /.
Write the governor and tell him
your opinion. Tell him that Arizona
owns the Kaibab deer; that you want
them saved. Tell the governor that
without the support of the state game
warden" the forest service can do
little towards authorizing the Staying
of the deer.
Write the governor and do your
share towards preserving this great
asset for yourself, your children and
friends of wild life throughout the
country

After the jury deliberated
twenty-seven hours in the Iron
county murder case, a verdict OF
guilty was handed in to Judge W.
R. Foley in the case of state vs..
Emma Sigler on Sunday, February
first at Hurley. The Sigler woman
was convicted of numbering her
husband in Hurley after she had
claimed another man had done it.
Judge Foley sentenced her to life
at Waupun. The man charged
with the murder had been sent to
Waupun on the charge some time
ago, but finally the woman weak
ened and told that she had done
the deed. The case had held the

Must Follow Up.

A former warden of Waupun
prison shocks the learned judges
of Wisconsin. He tells them in
convention that their solemn in
struction in sentencing a prisoner
that each anniversary of the crime
shall be spent in solitary confine-
ment is never carried out. The
prison, he says, has enough to do
without taking care of 700 or 800
crime anniversaries. Of the merit
of the controversy that is likely to
be raised, involving the statutes
themselves, we are not here con-
cerned. But the statement is sig
nifcant in showing how far out of
touch our courts are with the ac-
tual work of prison management.
Joseph F. Fishman, inspector of
prisons for the United States gov
eminent, in his book, "Crucibles of
Crime" tells of instances in which
he carried to judges reports of
prison and Jail conditions that
were particularly bad. In each
case the court was astonished, was
grateful for the information and
set about to improve the situation.
Those judges, too, had lost touch.
It is our idea that a court should
keep in as close contact with the
jails from which men come to him
and the prisons to which they go,
as the manufacturer keeps in
touch with his factory. For, after
all, the prisons are, or should be,
factories of reform, from which
men come out better than when
they went in. If our institutions
are not, they fail in their purpose.
And how can our courts, which
really are at the controls, know
what to do unless they are as
much interested in a man before
he comes to them and after he
leaves as they are while he stands
at bar?-Crandon Republican.

DESTROYED LANDMARK
Forest County's Historic Old
''King Tut" Pine Felled by
Lumbermen Who Wanted
Timber"

Just because it was a market
able piece of timber, and losing all
the value as a historic and tangi-
BILE asset to the county, Forest
county lumbermen permitted the
cutting Of a famous old pine tree
last week and failed utterly to re-
a1ize the value of it as a patriarch
Of the pine forests now disappear
ing-or in fact gone forevermore.
The Crandon Republican remarks
on the destruction of this famous
tree as follows:
The King Tut" pine of Forest
county stood seven feet ON the
stump. The first 16-foot log meas
ured 81 inches in diameter at the
small end. The trunk was so sym
metrical that the second log, also
16 feet long measured only one
inch less than the first. The tree
yielded five 16-foot and one 14-foot
logs. Total scale, measured with
the Doyle rule, 1868 board feet
The top log measuring 80 inches
in diameter, owing to the fact that
the tree had been broken off by a
terrific wind so long ago that the
oldest loggers hereabouts have no
memory of it.
The big pine stood on section
II, Range 81, Town Is, or about
eight miles northwest of Wabeno.
The tree showed a total of 467
growth rings. And according to
Pat McHugh, old time lumberman
of Laona, the tree was partly
notched for telling about As years
ago and the work of telling the
tree abandoned when it was dis
covered the logs were too large to
pass through the dams in the out
let leading from Roberts lake.
The second and third logs are
beautiful specimens and will yield
lumber to compare with the best
in quality and size ever produced
by Wisconsin mills. The logs are
too large to be handled at the local
mills and they will therefore be
sold.
The butt log will likely be
Ierected in some prominent place
on Main street in Crandon as a
relic of the good old days.
