attempt at a nationwide bone dry
prohibition, cause and effect).
Take our game laws for an illus
tration. About IS years ago when l
first came to Minnesota, and for a
number of years afterwards, the deer
were protected about 1112 months in
a year, but about nine months of that
time it was very common to hear the
report of a high powered rifle and
hear the dogs baying and trailing the
deer. And a few days or week be-
fore the season opened to shoot deer
there was an extra effort made by
a few of the poor settlers to have as
many hung up in the brush as posi-
BILE to sell to the spOrtsmen that came
and failed to get their deer. Com
mercializing is the greatest cause for
the present stringent game laws.
About two years ago we were for
tunate to get a couple of cars of min
nows to stock the rivers and creeks
in eastern Pine county and number
OF us quit our own work to go and
haul these minnOws out and plant
them in the streams. This was all
done with the free will of the men
that responded to the calls, but on a
certain Friday last fall, and on the
following Sunday, and again on Mon
day two or three of these poor settlers
dynamited a mile of Hay Creek in
order for the poor settlers to have Il
few meSseS of fish. Now if this is not
sufficient cause for some drastic laws
to be put into effect, | would like to
know why not. Why cuss the game
wardens? They are only executing ord
ers placed in their hands, also, why
criticiSe our representatives, and sena-
tors? More power to them and may
their stars never grow dim. | think
upon close inquiry of our officials,
you will find out that they have got
the low down on the many violations
in the past from a strictly reliable
source. A few years ago there were
few grouse and prairie chickens

ises and now they have increased to
60 or 20 in numbers. | sometimes

by feeding them. Also | mentioned
the fact to a couple of the wardens
and they did not tell me that l must
pay three dollars for a permit for
these birds to stay on my place.

Is FOR REDUCING LEGISLATIVE
MEMBERSHIP
Editor ASkOv American:

Editor Askov Americana:
| can not refrain from commenting
on the editorial, Reducing the Cost"
by our representative, Hjalmar Peter
sen, where he explained how a saving
Of 100000 or more every legislative
session could be made to the taxpay
erS of Minnesota by reducing the num-
Der of legislative members to an even
100 instead of 1913. This surely would
be a move in the right direction as
in these times we must cut expenses
wherever possible without injuring
the functions of government. l am
sure if this could be accomplished
it would not curtail our service or eff
ficiency of government.
l, for one, believe in reduing the
number of servants instead of Great
ing new departments and thereby in
creasing the state pay roll. A saving
of 100000 every legislative session
is no small amount in these days
That money would go a long ways
toward building additional state
buildings which exact large portion
of the appropriations of every session
Of the legislature. Mr.. Petersen is
due a lot of credit for coming out for
such a move.
We live in an age of consolidation
and cooperation. l believe there is
room for consolidating many of our
different state departments under one
head and thereby economic without
effecting the service which would
save the taxpayers of our state thou
sands of dollars and as a direct re-
suit it would reduce our state tax.
