GAME COMMISSION
ASKED TO EXPLAIN
DISTRIBUTION OF EGGS
Continued from Page y

ADOfA -
Mountain Sportsmen's Association
and the Anaconda Sportsmen's AS
ISOLATION appeared before the State
Fish and Game Commission at a re-
cent meeting of the body and APP
pealed to them to open the lake to
ice fishing for two days a week be-
tween November oath and February
9th. Some of the Commissioners
stated that they did not know the
conditions at Georgetown Lake and
were glad to have the representa-
tiyes explain them, but advised aft
erwards that no action was taken in
opening the lake. Petitions have
been circulated through Butte, Ana
conda and Philipsburg, requesting
that the lake be opened, these petit
tons bear the signatures of a large
percentage of sportsmen and have
been sent to the Fish and Game
Commission.
The Butte Anglers Club has rend-
cred a splendid service in the inter
est of propagating fish in the streams
of this vicinity, and they are to be
commended for the fine work they
are doing through their hatchery at
Maiden Rock. However, the organi-
cation is not designed to give express
sion to the rank and file of the
sportsmen in relation to regulations
of the Fish and Game Commission.
Unless additional and more sub
stantial reasons are advanced for the
action of the Commission in refusing
to open Georgetown Lake for a very
limited time in the winter months
the conclusion must be reached that
it is acting arbitrarily and without
justification. The Fish and Game
Commission acts only under author
ity delegated by the people through
the Legislature. 1t cannot continue
to be autocratic and expect to have
the majority of sportsmen remain
silent. = Adopted by the Rocky
Mountain Sportsmen's Association at
a regular meeting, Jan. 5, 1887.

WILL
CLOSE SUNDAY
DR.. Zimmerman and Song
Leader in Last Serv-
ice Tonight

The "old folks service" was OBJ
served this morning in connection
with the revival at the First Bap-
fist church. Ed. Keith. song leader
for the revival, led out with the
many favoritcS called for by the
congregation and said he would
sing tonight what it seemed to
him had more response than any
other solo he has rendered here.
"The Lord Is My Shcphcrd.' 1t
was previously rendered ut
morning service and was impress
Sively received, being rendered in
the traditional Scottish air.
The pastor, the Rev. BroaduS
+. Wall, stated this morning that
DR.. n. ID. Zimmerman and Mr..
Keith would hold their last SER
vice here tonight but that the re-
vival services would be continued
through Sunday.
The message this morning to
old folks, some being in the con-
grcgation who had been members
of the church for more than 40
years, was one of comfort and
hope taken from the resurrection
as set forth in the 2Sth chapter
of Matthew. He said that Jesus
wrote the title to immortality for
man in his resurrection and that
of all people Christians should be
happv because Christ is alive, and
that they are with assurance
headed for the homeland. the
gloryland made possible through
their redemption and the rcSur-
rcction.
Last night was recognized as
young peoples night and the
song leader, Ed. Keith, had his
young peoples choir in robes in
the choir loft of the regular choir.
Dr. Zimmerman preached last
night on "Thc Biggest Crook in
Hendersonvilc," basing his mes
sage on the 18th chapter of End
Kings. He said it was possible to
find this person among the church
members who were leading people
aStray at cocktail parties, or
among the men, women and chill
drcn who have taken to the great
gambling craze, notably with slot
machines; among the huskStcr
who shortweightS the people, or
among the church hypocrite VIII"
sings lusty hymns in church on
Sunday and renders pacans to the
devil on Monday, or among the
shystcrs of their profession or the
libertineS who play a double
game. In substance, he described
this "crook" as very evil, dan
gerous and influential person re-
CARELESS of his or her special
realm of activity.
DR.. Zimmerman said a person 5
so-called best friend might prove
to be his greatest enemy in sub
iecting such a friend to numer-
Gus temptations. The devil. he
said, puts out his bait by challeng,
ing a person not to be a wal!
flower and not to be an old foEy
but to have his fling, SOW some
wild oats and enjoy life. He said
Jesus was put through all the
PAGES of temptation that man Is
subjected to and that people OF
this age can put the devil behind
them as successfully as Jesus did.
DR.. Zimmerman said q person
could coon become badly involved
with sin and get himself tied into
some difficult knots but that
Christ could untangle them all II
the sinner would do like the Prod
ipal Son and make a few noble
resolves for a higher life.
