Burlington Hunters Protest
Against Proposed Law For
sv
Closed Quail Season ^.
AW
PUT FORWARD WEAK ARGUMENT
I
".t,
1
Petition Legislature for Short Open
Season Each \Ye^r—Cornell College
Base Ball Schedule1—Consolidation
of Iowa Horse Racing Circuits Pro­
posed—Many Ducks in South Da­
kota—Other Sports Gossip. a^^jss
From Turlington conies a protest
against the passage of the proposed
bill which will make it unlawful to kill
any quail or prairie chicken In Iowa
for five years. This Burlington pro
test is directed especially against the
prohibition of the killing of quail. Th&
epritention set forth in the petition be
ing circulated there is that hunters
kill but very few quail anyway, and
that not nearly so many are killed
with the gun as are destroyed by the
coJri winters and quail trappers. It
favors a short open period of fifteen
days each year and a resident hunt
«jPs license.
The Burlington protest is but one of
many that have goi)e up every time an
loiilva. legislature has attempted to cor
rect hunting evils' and protect the
state's game. Years ago it was said
the wild pigeons and prairie chicken
were too numerous to be wiped out.
Where are they now? The pigeon has
disappeared entirely, and there are not
a dozen counties in the state thfl.t
could scare 'up enough prairie chick
ens to' make one day's good shooting
for a pair of hunters. Closed spring
seasons for ducks in this and every
other northern Iowa state is the only
assured means of preventing their an
nihilation. But when Iowa proposed
to cut off duck shooting a band of
spring hunters from Sioux City and
its vicinity swooped' down on the
legislature and its good intentions were
nipped in the bud.
Prairie chickens are too few in Iowa
to make any protective measure worth
while. The time for prevention has
passed. The "Bob White" is still scat
tered over the state, and he needs the
help of the law to further establish
himself and rear his young and in
crease his numbers. Despite the Bur
lington and all other similar protests,_
let us have five years of protection.

consideration, and at a meeting to be

the! plan will be accepted or turned

with the approval1 of officers of *both

SCORES THE SALACIOUS PRESS.
Cardinal Gibbons Urges That Sensa
tional Newspapers Be Shunned.
Baltimore, March 4.—'Preaching his
usual .monthly sermon at the4 Cathe
dral yesterday, Cardinal Gibbons de
nounced- "salacious journals." and
newspapers printing objectionable ad
vertisements. Taking as his subject,
"Spiritual Reading,** especially in con
nection with the lenten season, aftsr
pointing out the helpfulness of reading
religious books, and particularly the
Bible, he said:
"Rigidly exclude from your house
hold all books and pamphlets which are
hostile to religion and good morals.
Never admit into your homes any
newspaper or 'periodical which venti
lates qbscene news and licentious scan
dals.
"Now, there are good and bad Jour
nals, as there are clean and unclean an
imals. No kind of literature works more
mischief in a community than salacious
journals. They contain not only news
matter, but also advertisements of a
most objectionable character.
"They have sensational items which
are a snare and a stunvbling-block to
the Innocent and unwary. Many of the
youth of both sexes have learned from
this impurse fountain their first les
sons in the dark mysteries of human
depravity."

100 Acres of Land Sinks.
Boise, Idaho.—With a roar wtylch
could be heard for miles, 100 acres of
pasture land on the ranches of Richard
Steen and Captain Tomls, three miles
from the mouth of Gtand Bonde river,
sank 150 feet below the level of the
ground last night. All' day the ground
continued to sink slowly.'
Awakened by the unusual noise,
ranchmen started in search of the cause
and found an oblong hole 150 feet wide
and hfilf a mile lo'ng, with walls as
smooth as rock. Millions of tons of
earth fell. No livestock was on the
ground at the time, and no loss of life.
It is believed that an immense under

weather of the past season was respon

Mother Attends School With Son.
Sioux City!—Perhaps the only case

Finding her son somewhat indifferent

to regular attendance at school, Mrs.
Feldman, the owner of extensive prop

of studying side by side with him, and
daily at the high school may be seen
the novel sight of mother and son
delving into the mysteries of Latin and
science.

The Silver Grasshopper.
George Vaux, Jr., of Philadelphia,
has been appointed a member of the
board of Indian commissioners. Mr.
Vaux told a reporter the other day an
Indian story.
"There was a certain commissioner,"
he said, "who treated Ithe Indians
with rude scorn. One day a chief en
tertained this man in his tepee, telling
him over the tobacco many quaint leg
ends.
"One legend concerned a plague of
grasshoppers. The chief told eloquent
ly how grasshoppers overran the land,
eating the grain, and how the medi
cine men averted a famine by offering
a silver grasshopper to the Great Spirit
whereupon all that deluge of grass
hoppers disappeared.
"But the commissioner scoffed at the
tale.
'Are you Indians such fools.' he
said, 'as to believe such rubbish?'
'Oh, no, said the chief, gravely, 'or
we'd long ago have offered the Great
Spirit a silver pale face.'"

Lawyer Kellogg Says Proceed^
ings Against Harriman Are
Only Begun
WILL PROBE TO THE BOTTOM
Government Counsel Says Recent Pro­
ceedings Established a Foundation
and That the Fight is Only Begun—
Nonsense in Immunity Bath Talk
General News.
^Wrtsliiiigton, March 7.—Relative to
jthe statements, which have appeared
in the eastern papers to the effect that
E. H. Harriman, who has recently been
under investigation by the interstate
commerce commission, is 'to be given
what is called an immunity bath.
Frank B. Kellogg, leading counsel for
the government In the case, made an
interesting statement last evening.
Mr. Kellogg, while refusing positive
ly to be interviewed as to what policy
•the administration is to pursue, or
what legal" steps may be taken, said
that the immunity bath talk made him
very tired. .%£'•
"If Harriman can get a bigger or a
better immunity bath than he received
in 1902, when he was under fire, before
the interstate commerce commission,"
said Mr. Kellogg. "I would like to know
how it could be done.
"There ls a great deal of nonsense in
this immunity bath talk. It is nothing
new at all, for it is a well settled prin
ciple that if a person goes on the stand
and admits that J»e has done certain
things contrary to the law, that he be
comes immune from criminal proceed
ings. But this principle does not apply
to trusts and corporations, as for ex
ample, the paper and tobacco trust
cases where the men, -who composed
these trusts, refused to Answer ques
tions."
"Then you propose, Mr. Kellogg, to
dissolve the Harriman mergers and
consolidations, and take legal stips to
restore the railroad stocks of some of
the lines he has awallowed up to the
or in a
"Excuse me." said Mr. Kellogg hasti
ly as he glanced at several newspaper
men, who were taking in every word
he uttered, "but I must catch the next
train to St. Paul."
From Mr. Kellogg's remarks It is a
fair inference that the fight which the
government has Inaugurated against
Harriman has just begun.
He said tha,t he knew nothing of the
•report that Senator John C. Spooner
was to become leading counsel for E.
H. Harriman. Mr. Kellogg stated that
•the investigation recently conducted in
New York was for getting at the bot
tom of Mr. Harriman's system of do
ing business, and differed from the
hearing in 1902, because it established
an issue of facts to be hereafter con
sidered'.
HISS THE NATIONAL EMBLEM
Disgraceful Scene at a Labor Meeting
in 'Frisco.
San Francisco, March 4.—Four thou
sand union labor men of San Francis
co, Sunday, at a meeting bf the Moyer,
Haywood, and Pettibone Defense
league, hissed the American flag, and
even forced a German socialist singing
society that bore it to haul down the
banner jfor a time.
Anxious leaders then interfered and
the flag was restored.
Then the various leaders harangued
the crowd. They made no attempt to
veil their threats of force, The gist of
what they all said was that if the
capitalistic class broke the laws of the
land in an'attempt to suppress the un
ion labor movement and enslave the
American workingman they would go
one better In the matter of law-break
ing.
A resolution was passed by a unani
mous vote, In which the mine owners'
association and capitalistic class in
general was told that "If you pack the
jury and attempt to judicially murder
our brothers, we will pack full
of you."
Not Fit to Live In. 4- atVi,
A Philadelphian said of the late Bar
oness Burdett-Coutts, whose husband,
Ashmead Bartlett, was a native of the
Quaker city:
"I once dined with the aged peeress
at her house in Picadilly. She talked
about the poor and their sufferings—.
she seldom talked of anything else—
and she narrated an incident that had
once befallen her friend, Charles Dick
ens.
"Dickens, looking for local color for
his novel, 'Hard Times,' visited Man
chester. He went thru the hovels of
certain Manchester cotton spinners and
these foul houses filled him with pity
and horror.
Meeting the Manchester manufactur
er who owned them, he said:
'And do your employes really live
in such houses as these?'
'Certainly not,' the manufacturer
replied. 'They only sleep in them.
They live in my mill.'"
