BOARD CAN FIX
GAME SEASONS
SUPREME COURT FINDS COM
MISSION POSSESSED OF MEG
ESSARY AUTHORITY
Decision Says Body Can Adopt Rules
and Regulations Amounting to
Modification Of Existing Statutes;;"
Issued tn Case Arising In Flathead.

The state fish and game COM
mission has authority ito adopt
rules and regulations amounting
TO a modification of existing sta
tutes," a majority opinion Of the
Montana supreme court held.
The courts decision directed the dis
trict court of Lewis and Clark county
and Judge George w. Padbury Jr. to
dismiss proceedings now before 1t and
held that the restraining order issued
by the lower court was improper"
The case was appealed after the fish
and game commission on May 10 had
opened the elk hunting season in the
South Fork Of the Flathead from Sept
Is to Nov. 30, although section 1896
Of the state codes states the open
season on elk in Montana shall be
from Oct. is to Nov. IS, both dates
inclusive, each year
On Sept. 2 the lower court issued a
temporary order, restraining the OPEN
ing Of the season earlier than Oct. Is,
but the commission then applied to
the supreme court for a writ of super
visory control to annul the temporary
restraining order.
The majority decision Of the SUI
preme court directed that the writ
applied for be granted as "the act
(the section of state law In question:
authorizes the action of the commits
sion complained Of"
The proceedings raised the question
Of the right Of the state commission
to enlarge the open season on elk be-
yond the provisions Of section 1895, but
the state board commended a later Sec
ton of Montana law gave It authority
ito fix seasons and bag limits, or
shorten or close seasons, on any species
Of game, bird, fish, or fur-bearing
animal when 1t shall find after
investigation that such action Is neces-
Sary to assure the maintenance Of an
adequate supply"
The court found that the law Of
the state recognizes both open and
closed seasons and that the game
commission has authority to shorten
closed seasons" as well as open
the former action 'necessar-
lily lengthening the open season"
The majority opinion was written
by Associate Justice Albert a. Angst
man and concurred In by Chief Jus
tice o. r. Goddard and Associate Jus
tices Ralph ]. Anderson and 8. v.
Stewart.
Associate Justice c. F. Morris, In his
opinion, said: "All other
provisos or exceptions to the seasons
as fixed by statutes Tin addition to
Droviso for Ravalli county, are to the
effect that the commission or warden
may, at discretion, shorten or close
The open season as fixed by statute,
but in no instance does the statute |
authorize the commission |

Canadians, and a scout whose name
also is not known"
Their travelling equipment consisted
OF five Red River wagons and onS
wagon drawn by eight mules. The
smaller wagons we're pulled by shaggy
little Canadian ponies.
The bare account Of their triu
doesn't disclose the heart breaking
hardship they must have encountered
-uncharted wilderness, rockStrewn
peaks, valleys which were nothing more
than deep clefts In the ragged flank
OF mountain.
But they made 1t. Just like all the
old-timers who fought a state out Of
the wilderness OF early Montana made
It,"
They left the Bear river, travelled
along the Beaverhead to the Big Horn,
then followed what history calls an
Indian trail" along to the Deer Lodge
pass. 1t was in this territory they
struck the hardest part of the trip
For on the Beaver Dam hill-about %
miles east Of Missoula, they were
forced to dismantle the wagons and
carry them over the peak.
They struggled on to Fort Owen
where they met the historically famous
Father Ravalli and his companion at
what Is now a part Of the thriving
Bitter Root valley system.
And, in an tronic close to the story,
history records cryptically-"the In
dams were much awed by the spec
tacle of the wagons"
