m B,' h B t ; MEN'S AND BOYS' FINE AND CHEAP SHOES. SEE OUR WINDOW Rough on tlie Senator. The issue of Forest and Stream of May 3d contains the following article in regard to the action of Senator Lindsay in connection with the fish bill now before the Legislature: For some months a strong effort has been made by the friends of fish protection and propagation in Kentucky to secure from the Kentucky Legislature the passage of a law to prevent dynamiting and seining, and to restock the depleted State waters. Early in the present session of the Kentucky Legislature a bill known as the Spalding Fish Bill, was introduced into the Lower House. This bill provided penalties against seining, brush drags and dynamiting, Droviding for flshways and otherwise aided in suppressing the wholesale methods of fish destruction so much in vogue in Kentucky. At the same time the U. S. Fish Commission began to supply young fry, spawning ilsh and eggs for hatching to the State, under the inducement of the Kentucky Fish and Game Olub. Fish and game clubs began rapidly to form throughout the State. New interest was aroused, and everywhere was awakened co-operative action between the farmer and the genuine angler and sportsman. After discussion the Spalding Fish Bill passed the Lower House of the Legislature by a vote of two to one. When the bill reached the Senate strong opposition was developed. Among those who were hostile to its was Senator Wm. Lindsay ommissioner from Kentucky to the World's Fair at Chicago. Ho denounced the bill as calculated to produce idlers and drunkards. This idiotic asperation upon anglers was keenly felt by the local club and by those who indulge in the innocent im n rfinrfififcion from harass ing business cares, but few felt like risking the loss of the bill by taking up Commissioner Lindsay's gauntlet. His aspersion was ignored. As preferable, a petition-was circulated by the Frankfort Fish and Game Club, asking Commissioner (Senator) Lindsay to vote for the Spalding Bill in the interest of hiB constituents. This petition was numerously signed by the leading citizens of the county, and a committee of prominent citizens presented it to him at the State House. Recognizing the faot thut his constituents were earnestly for the bill ho agreed then and there to give it his support. Last Thursday the friends of the bill felt the situation was ripe for its passage. It was reported from a friendly committee. The session was extended, absent Senators sent for, amendments designed to cripple the bill were boing voted down, when, suddenly, to the surprise of everyone, Commissioner Lindsay lent his influence and vote to the adoption of amendments rcognized as fatal to the House, where new opposition had organized to assail its passage. So disgusted were his brother Senators at the flagrant breach of faith, and the unexpected turn of affairs, that they left the chamber and broke the quorum. Throughout the city that night, in the stores, shops and on the streets, the action of the World's Fair Commissioner Lindsay was bitterly discussed and denounced. Then the farmers joined in the condemnation. The daily papers followed with a reflection of popular feeling. There seems but one side to public sentiment. Friday the bill came up again in the Senate and was lost by a vote ofl4tol3. A motion to reconsider was entered, but the effect of Commissioner Lindsay's action has "been such as to demoralize and dishearten the friends of the bill, and its defaafc is anticipated. Senator Lindsay's treachery is not inexplicable. His motive is well understood. He was not governed by the silly belief that to conserve the food fish supply would be to produce idlers and drunkards. He was actuated by purely personal and ignoble motives. He was against the bill because of some who were for it; in opposing it he saw a way to gratify personal spite: he broke his promise of support and betrayed the interests of his constituents and of his State for a private grudge. The result is deplorable, for dynamiters and fish hogs will be encouraged to continue boldly their work of destruction. Aid from the Government in re-stocking the depleted streams is likely to cease. It is seldom that the action of any one man has been so disastrous to a promising and valuable cause as the action of Senator Lindsay Commissioner to the World's Fair.at Chicago. Bub for him Kentucky would na e taken a great step forward, in lino with other States, in protecting and preserving the denizens ot tne woods and waters from the clandestine assaults of the poacher and the assassin by night. We can imagine the fraternal greeting that will bo exchanged between Commissioner Lindsay, of Kentucky, and Commissioner Jas. A. Henshall, when they shall meet upon the floor of the Fisheries Exhibit, at Chicago, to admire the results of fish protection, flshculture and propagation. Both from tho same Stato the one tho Brutus of the Kentucky Fish Bill, the other tho exponent of the higher civilization. The legislative session will bo a long one, and tho friends of fish and game protection can only hope that the people's representatives will realize, before they finally adjourn, something of tho popular sontiment, and something of the value of laws of protection and conservation before every vestige of both fiah and game have been swept away.
