Ayer's Pills
Excel all others as a family medicine. They
are suited to every constitution, old and
young, and, being sugar-coated, are agree-
able to take. Purer; vegetable, they leave
no ill effects, but strengthen and regulate
the stomach, liver, and bowels, and restore
every organ to its normal function. For use
either at home or abroad, on land or sea,
these Tills
Are the Best.
"Ayer's rills have been used in my family
for over thirty years. We find them an ex-
cellent medicine in fevers, eruptive diseases,
and all bilious troubles, and seldom call a
physician. They are almost the only pill
used in our neighborhood." — Redmon C.
Comly, Bow Landing P. 0., W. l-'vliciana
Parish, La.
"I have been in Hi's country eight years,
and, during all this time, neither I, nor any
member of my family have used any other
kind of medicine than Ayer's Pills, but these
we always keep at hand, and I should not
know how to get along -without them." —
A. W. Sodcrberg, Lowell, Mass.
"I have used Ayer's Cathartic Pills as a
Family Medicine
for 35 years, and they have always given the
utmost satisfaction." — James A. Thornton,
Eloomlngton, Ind.
"Two boxes of Avar's Pills cured me of
severe headache, from which I was long a
sufferer."— Emma Kcyes, Hubbardstown,

We have found thirty-eight indictments, as fol
lows: For robbery 5, lor perjury 0, for grand
larceny 6, tor embezzlement -, for forgery 17,
lor felony li.
In the performance of our official cliiti-s we
have received material assistance Iroin the Di<
met Attorney, whom we have found always
ready to aid us with his advice whenever It has
been necessary for us to call upon him. Our
duties have brought us lino freaueut contact
wild Hits officer, and we nave bad frequent and
almost couliuuous oppoiiuuity foi becoming ac
quainted hum the workings of his ollice,
i.i me naoaKmneat nud conduce of which we
i.ii.i everything lo commend and nothing to con
demn.
We have also been greatly aided In the labor
of Investigating the condition and workings of
the several departments ot I lie city government
by the efflcteui vices of D. W. Folger, wliom
we appointed Expert Accountant to the Grand
Jury shortly after we were impaneled.
• PREVIOUS rAIUIAI. UKrOItTS.
We have heretofore tiled partial reports giving
the results of our Investigations of the condition
ot the County Jail, the llousj of Collection, the
Industrial School and Magdalen Asylum aim the
File Department, and a* part ol these reports
we offered certain recommendations aud sug
ge>tious for the consld ratiou ol the proper mu
nicipal auuioriileD. While tue necessity for ihe
Improvements siiKKested by us is conceded by
every one, Ilia Board of supervisors has since
fixed the tax levy for the entreat fiscal year
wlilioui providing any I leans lor carrying them
into effect. Two icasuns for this iiavß been
offered— lack of funds aud lack of power In the
Board of Mi.nTVisors.
It Is conceded, lor instance, that the equip
ment of 1 1 it* Fire Department is far beiuw ibe re
uuirements of Hie city's giowtc, yet we are told
Hie only lemedylstobe found in the voluntary
contribution* of citizens. To a body of citizeus
composed, as is this Grand Jury, not of lawyers
but hi business men, It seems strange thai a city,
presumably endowed with the power of self-guv
ciniiii-iit a- to it- local affairs. Is not, In Its cor
i. ate capacity, vested with the liuin of self
preservation; Hut though cveiy lax-payer and
every voter should Individually declaie his desire
for The increased expenditure, and expiess his
Killiuguess to bear Ins share ot tlie Increased
taxation, yet the Board of supervisors has not
the authority to Increase the appropriation lor the
Fire Depaitment b-yond aniiiunt, $110,000
at which It was nxed by an act of the Lgtslature
passed in 1878. 11 al.-o -.i-um- strauge that, al
though succeeding Grand Jones lor years past
have, one alter another, called attention to the
Destilenti.il condition of Hie County Jail, aud de
noun'- d its maintenance as a blot ou our civili
zation, no means can be found within tin* scope
ol the powers of the Board of Supervisors to
remedy the evils complained of, although those
evils arc, and for many yean past have been no
torious.
A M :\\ cnAKTErt.
If this De the law it appears to this Grand Jury
to he a strong argumeut in favor ol the taking of
Immediate steps to secure the adoption "I a new
Charier commensurate with tlio needs of the mu
nicipality, Ii cannot be considered Haltering to
our civic pride [bat a city of the wealth and com
mercial Importance of Sail Francisco should be
compelled to rely for the maintenance of elll
cieni pioiectlmi against lire on ih« voluntary
contributions ol a Few of its citizens.
lue tuie remedy appears lo this Grand Jury to
lie In the adoption of a new charter; but that Is
a work of time, aud the fact that thiee previous
attempts at cuaiter-maliiuz nave been unsuc
cessful la nol encouragiug as an augury that suc
cess will atieud a fouitu attempt la the Inline
aie future.
We earnestly recommend, however, thai an
eltuit be made to frame acnarter thai will secure
to the city the blessings of honest local self irov
eminent. It may be going somewhat beyond the
province ol a Ur.mil Jury to oiler advice lv this
matter, but, while Olscussmg this subject, we
venture to express the opinion mat If the mem
bers of a Board of Fieeltolders, to be Chosen for
the pose, will content themselves with fram
ing a simple organic law for me government of
; the city. in arcordance with the provisions of
the constitution, restricting themselves to the
designation of me various officers and depart
ments of ihe municipal government, ihe tneilioa
of their election or appointment, aud the defini
lion of their power- and duties In a few provis
ions a- simple as possible, Instead of attempting
to incorporate In a proposed charier a muituude
of provisions which are pioperly matters ol leg
islation to be enacted by the governing bodies of
the city elected for th.it pin pose, then; will be a
crealcr chance of tno result ot their labors te
celvlne Hie Indorsement of a majority ol the
electors at the polls.
In lbs meantime, however, It seems to xi% evi
dent that the city's only hone of present relief
lies In an appeal to the Legislature for such an
extentlon of powers as may be furnished by a
geueral law not iii iiguaut to the provision of
the couslliuilon Inhibiting special legislation.
A M.v. COUNTY JAIL.
lii our previous repoit on the Comity Jail we
recommended the erection of a new Jail ou the
property owned by the city known as Hie Kid
Hospital, situated at the corner of Stockton and
Fianchco slieels. The dimensions of Ihe ci ate
268 feet 0 Inches on Francisco street by 137 feet
G inches on Stocktou street.
Since 1879 the premises have been occupied
as an "Old Ladles' Home" by the charitable cor
poration known a- Hie Scandinavian Ladles* He
nevolent and Belle! Society. lbe premises were
leased to the society by the Mayoi and Board of
Supervisors in that year tot three years, and
since thai lime the lease has been renewed every
three years at a nominal rent. The last of tnese
renewals will explie on September 1, 1891. The
society named Is about to vacate the demises
referred to, a now home having been lurnlsbed
tor the ol>j<*cis of tite society by the generosity of
the late Mis. Charles < rocker.
a joint petition Has been filed by the society
first named and the llebicw I; me for Apd Dis
abled, reqUMtlUB the Board ot Supervisors to
cancel the i id 1 ase and to Issue ■ new lease for
time years from Bepteinber 1, ISM), to the so
ciety l,isi named.
We think Iha I this petition ought not to be
grained. i i.i.' liebiew Home Is, undoubtedly, a
deserving chaiity, and worthy ol all proper con
slderalii n; but the city of Situ Francisco owes a
greater cutty to the unfortunate beings who are
crowed into me ill-veutllated, foul-siiicllins: cells
of ll>e present County Jail than 11 does to any
private charity. After considering Hie various
pieces of properij owned by tins municipality
we are convinced thai the only lot owned by u.e
ciiy Tillable by size and location for the pur
pose of a County Jail is the lot in question.
he Legislature of state will assemble In
January, lbifl, and at the same time a new
Board of Supervisors will a«stiuic ofllee. Ills
within the bounds of probability thai legislation
may be enacted which will allow the- Incoming
Board of Bupervltofa to undertake the construc
tion of a new County Jail.
We i-aiiic'tlly recommend the present board to
take no action thai may have the cried of fore
stalling or preventing action by their successors
lv this matter. It the lease asked for be granted,
it will be three years before the property can be
made available for city purposes, if It should be
decided to erect a jail on that ilte, and even then
Ihe argument would be presented In favor ol the
renewal of the lease for a further term that tse
lessees hud gone to great expense In the pur
chase of buildlucs ana furnltuie and that they
could not teiuove fiom the premises without
serious loss.
OFFICIAL HOOKS KM'F.UTKD.
With nii: assistance of the expert accountant
appointed by us, we hive examined (lie books of
the Cay ami County Audit the City and County
I Treasurer, the Tax Collector, the License col
lector, the County Clerk, the Itecoider, the As
sessor, the Sheriff, Ihe Public Administrator, the
Cliy and County Attorney, the Clerk of the
Justices' Courts, lbe Police Courts, tho Health
Office, me Hoard of Education a:.d the Board of
Park Commissioners. We found the books anil
accounts of all thuofllces named accurately kept,
wit h proper checks and balances In every in
gla nee. snowing Unit ail moneys received by Hie
various ofllcrs iinmed, either for taxes or for fees
to which the city is entitled, are properly ac
counted for as required by law.
TAX-COr.T.ECTOB'S OFFICE.
On examining the books of the Tax Collector
and Auditor we found that it large amount, aggre
gating many millions of Hollars, is carried ou the
hoik- of ihe Auditor and of the Tax Collector,
eninillng much clerical labor without any possi
bility of corresponding beoelit to the city. Since
the fiscal year 18r.7-ISSB each succeeding Tax
Collector has retired from oftlc leaving behind
him a large amount of uncollected delinquent
taxes.' \\ lieu a new Tax Collector takes Ills
ofllcc all nncollecieil taxes charged against bis
predecessor In the Auditor's ofllee are trans
ferred to bis account and charged nualnst him
on the boo.s of the Auditor. Wbeu the in
cumbent took his oitlce a chares was made,
ngalrlst Him of 114,899,846 'M for delinquent
taxes willed bad accrued since 1857-1858, lep
resenting the accumulations of iiucotlected taxes
i 11 mil thai period up to and luciuJlnz tho fiscal
year ending July 1, 18»0. The great bulk of
tills lame aggregate amount represents an im
iiiens-.' number of very sin. ill claims which are
wholly tincollcctable. In many cases Ihe persons
recorded on the books as delinquents have died
or disappeared. We suggest tii.il a system might
be devised by which cancellations could be made
at stated periods, after proper Investigation, and
that this course might save clerical work lv the
offices of the Auditor and lax Collector.
' LICENSE OOLLBCXOB.
We recommend that a small fee of 25 or 60
cents be charged for the issuance of licenses by
tlie License Collector -lo I persons whose in; m
esses are exempt under the law from ihe pay
ment of Ik-cose taxes. Under the license ordi
nance all persons engaged In mercantile business
where tie amount of in!- u.i-ss transacted is less
than (800 a quarter, and nil persons engaged in -
the lodging-house or restauraut business whose
business aggregate* less man $1000 a quarter,
aie exempt liom ? the payment of license taxes.
In all such cases licenses known as "Exempts"
- are issued In me persons applying for the same
and making proper proof of their right to Hie ex
emption. In addition to making out the licenses,
an affidavit in every case is made out by a clerK
In ll. i- License Collector's otlicft and sworn to by
the person applying for the license. These li
censes lie then entered lv a book kept by Hie
License Collector. This entails much clerical
labor and considerable - expense for printed
blanks and other stationery. The extent of this
cost and labor may be estimated from the fact
that between July 1, 1889, and April 21, 1880,
there were issued IG2B "exempt" merchandise
licenses aud 301 "exempt" lod<jim:-house and
restaurant licenses— a total of 102!). The Im
position of a small fee iv these cases would not
be an oppressive burden on the persons who se
cure exemption from the payment of the license
tax exacted from oilieis engaged in similar busi
ness, and it would serve to reimburse Ilia city lor
some o( Hie expense above refened to.
GOLDEN GATE TAKE.
With reference to the Commissioners of Golden
Gate Park, we desire to say thai we found on au
Investigation that no previous Graud Jury, so
far as we were able to learn, has attempted to
examine the books of this office. It is to be pre
sumed that our predecessor.-! have doubted (heir
right lo examine the books of the Commissioners
and that tins doubt has been based upon the fact
that the Commissioners are not appointed by the
city but by the Governor of the Stale. Wo be
lieved, however, that Inasmuch as alt the moneys
expended by Hie Commissioners are derived from
ciiy taxation, the Grand Jury had the right to
examine their accounts. We are pleased to say
that not only did «a lind no disposition on the
uaitof the Commissioners to dispute this right,
but immediately upon our wishes in this respect
being made known the Commissioners extended
to us and to I lie expert accountant appointed by
us every facility for making such examination as
we desired, aud expressed it as 1 heir own opinion
that their books should ba expelled at least once
a year. We can-ed the books to be expelled for
the period commencing July 1, 1880, anil end-
Ing with April 80, 1800. We louud the books
accurately kept, with precise details of every
dollar expended. Daring the period mentioned
the expenditures, all of which art- evidenced by
proper vouchers, aggregated $105,387 43, of
which SC4.7DB 71! was for labor and material
used lv new conjunction work, aud $40,688 71
for maintenance of the grounds and buildings,
of the t0t.,1 aggregate of 1105.387 -i;»,
573,100 10 was expended for labor and $32,
--287 88 for materials. A very full summary of
the accounts of the Commissioners is attached
to and forms part of the expert accountant's re
port, tiled herewith.
ALMSHOUSE.
We investigated the condition and manage
ment ot the Almabou.se, and as the result ol mat
investigation became impressed with the convic
tion thai Hie present Supeiintendeut is lv every
respect a worthy successor of the late Dr. lieat
ing. under whose supeivlsion tho Almsbouseof
the city and county of San Francisco became
widely known as one of the best, and perhaps the
best, conducted charitable institution of its
kind in toe United Slates.
CITY AND COUNTS HOSTITAI..
We found the City and County Hospital well
conducted so fur as regards the care and atten
tion bestowed on the parents, who are supplied
with proper food of tile best quality and receive
the best ot medical and surgical liealuieut. We
renew, however, the recommendations made by
the Grand Jury wliicli preceded us as to the
needed improvements to the beating and venti
lation ol ihe hospital, md the renewal of the
Boors ihinugiiout the huildintr.
Our iittcuilnn bus been directed to published
chaises of frauds in connection with the othee of
the druggist employed at ibe hospital. From
our Investigation ot the matter referred to. we
found ii. at dining the incumbency of Louis C.
Wagner, who was employed as druggist, but
who lias since been discltnrged, some valuable
drag* disappeared from the hospital. After
careful investigation, however, we could not Hud
the slightest evidence to .show that uuy person
outside or the said Louis I". Wagner was con
cern ed i:i me frauds charged.
ar.w cur iiall.
Our atloution has also been directed to certain
charges of fraud In connection with construc
tion of the new City Hall. An Investigation of
the matter referred lo it showed thai in a few
•pots rubbish and debris had been incorporated
in the buck walls in course of construction,
where the contracts called for solid brickwork.
We lind. after careful Investigation, that all the
said rubbish and debris was placed in me places
where it was fuuud by George K. Hanks, a brick
layer, who first directed the attention of the
municipal authorities to the matter, and we be
lieve that he was assisted In this fraud by others
who worked under his direction, and at his In
stigation. Who those confederates were we
were unable to discover. We are sati-hed, bow
ever, mat neither the contractors nor the sub
contractors, nor any officer In the employment
if the city, was cognizant of me fraud. It Is a
fraud thin might to be puulshed, but wo have
bern tillable iv hnd any provision of law under
which an iiidlclineut could be fouud. It seems
to be a defect In the law which the Legislature
alouo can remedy.
POLICE DEPARTMENT.
After a careful examination of the affairs of
the Police Department we desire to say that In
our opinion the department Is as thoroughly
efficient as It can be made by the Board of I'ulK-e
Commissioners and Hie Chief of I'olice, acting
under their utreciiou, with the numerical force
and the accommodations and appliances at their
command. The Übtel of I'olice devotes bis en
tire lime and attention to the affairs of the de
railment and shows complete knowledge of all
that is necessary to the successful management
of mis very Important part of our municipal.
Government. The discipline of the department
Is kepi up to a very high standard. We tlud,
however, that the city of Ban Francisco is de
cidedly behind the times as regaids accommoda
tions afforded at Hie pflTice stations. In olUer
large cities the police stations at • city property
nno are lined up with rooms for the accommoda
tion of all the outers in the district where they
ate located, inns affording the members of the
police force a place of rendezvous where they
can be accommodated lv case of riot or dis
tuibauces, which may occur at any time in all
Urge cities. We believe that the efficiency of
the police torce in this city might be materially
increased It rooms for Ihe accommodation ol the
member* "I me force were attached to all the
police stations. These rooms should be tilted nil
as doriuiloiles and mere should also be at encti
station a leaning room and a gymnasium. The
furnishing of these accommodations would act
as an Inducement to keep Hie men together when
oil duty, so mat in case of emergency they
w<>iild;l»! in readiness for service night and day.
We also call particular attention to the fact
that the city has no mounted police force. A
City as large as San Ifranclseo, with so wide an
area of teirltory to be coveted, should have a
mounted police force of at least ten or twelve
officers, thoroughly equipped, and stationed at
locations where they would always be ready for
service.
We ii'iMininend that the Board of Supervisors
take early action, with a view to the establish
ment of a mounted police patrol, and also to the
arranging ot propel quarters at the police stations
for the convenience of Ibe police officers while
oil duty.
STRUT DEr.MtniEKT.
We have been highly pleased by the result of
our examination of the conduct of this depart
ment. The Street Superintendent appears lo us
lo have rendered lalthlul service during his
tenure ot office. We notice a steady Improve
ment in Hie condition ol the accepted streets. A
gn*:ti deal of new pavement lias been laid and
ma i of the old pavements have been repaired,
tin- w oik in every case being done in first-class
manner. We cordially Indorse the policy
adopted by the Superintendent of removing the
cobblestone paving us rapidly us practicable and
substituting for ii other more suitable pavement.
Much has been said aud written about Hie re
spective merits of Hit various paving materials.
The question of what is the best paving material
lor Die city is one that can only be decided by
lime and expetleuce. We are convinced, how
ever, that no pavement can be devised that will
stand the strain, piessuro and wen and tear of
the enormous loads which are hauled on single
vehicles in this city. There may be eases where
the hauling of extraordinarily heavy loads may ba
unavoidable, as, lor Instance, In the transports
llou of Heavy machinery where It Is impossible to
subdivide the load. In such cases special per
mits to. the particular occasion should be
granted, but for the hauling of ordinary mer
chandise no truck drawn by more than two
horses should be allowed on our streets. As it 19
now, there is a continual contest between Hie
pavement and the enormous four-horse trucks
and the pavement invariably gels the worst of
the ban!,-. We offel this lor the consideration
of the Board of Supervisors, and we also recom
mend that an ordinance bo passed requiring the
tires ol all tracks Died for the hauling of heavy
merchandise Lo bo made not less than six Inches
lv width. We believe that this would have the
efleci of increasing materially the durability of
our bind pavements.
DIVES ami DISOIiDKBLT HOUSES.
Preceding Grand Juries have called attention
to Hie "dives," nanc .■-iio'.-e- and low places of
resort which, under Hie pretentious name of
vanity theaters, disgrace some of our principal
thoroughfares. These dives are hotued*. of vice
and ciime, where the youths of thn city are do
moralized, and weuk-utiuded men are robbed by
women ol Ilia lowest class, who assume me
guise of waitresses as a cover for Hie more
tihaiuclul vocation which they pursue. There Is
not a night in mo year that me books of the City
Prison do nut show a record of murderous crimes
directly traceable to these resorts.
Closely allied to this evil is the scandalous
manner In which the social evil i;i Its most hide
ous form is permitted to Haunt Itielt In the face
of (lie public on some ot our streets and espe
cially in H. two blocks on Dupout street, be
tween liush aud California. Those blocks, from
one end to the other and on both sides d the
street, lire occupied In their entirety by houses
of ill-lame. These houses and Hi dives above
rcfcned to are alike " disorderly houses" within
the i:.eanr.ij; ot the law ot the Stale, which de
clares the keeping of a disorderly bouse or tne
letting of properly with the kuowkdgo that It is
lo be used for such purposes to be a misde
meanor. Jinny of these houses are owned by
men of wealth and social and political promi
nence, li is uulortuuaie their misdemeanors
ate not indictable ollensus under the law. It is
perhaps lor this reason that denunciations of
this evil by Grand Juries hive had so little
eDect. .-.■.':
In extenuation of Hie failure of the Police De
partment to prosecute these offenders, it must
be admitted, however, that It Is almost Impos
sible to . stem** convictions, owing lo the diffi
culty of obtaining positive proof of the offense
charged. A conviction ol the person who keeps
a disorderly house Is almost useless, for it simply
means a change of tcuauls, without any change
dl Hie shameful nature of the occupation of the
premises. Prosecution of the propcity-owner
who rents his property for these purposes would
probably be productive of some good, but here
the Police Depailiuent is met with the almost
Insuperable iMllcuity of secuiins positive proof
of utility knowledge. Of tins diitlculiy the pres- .
ent Grand Jury has bad some experience. We
sent for some of the owners of these uouses. men
who stand high Mi the c.iiniiiuuilv. yet in almost
every Instance we were met with .pretense
that they Knew nothing ot the business of their
tenants or of the occupation they pursued, al
though the character of the house and Hie In
mates was notorious. . -
1 licit: seems to be do effectual lemedy that a
Grand Jury can apply, It seems to us that It
musi be lell to the law-making power of ilia
Mate to devise a remedy. iimji nuliwn i mhi'hi mi|
In the meantime, however, we suggest that the
■'•live" evil might be materially abated, if not -,
suppressed, It pi eater care were taken in the
issuing of licenses, and 4t this care were supple
mented by the annuillug of licenses in every
case ot proved violation of the law, ■.'■■■'
' •We might ulso suggest that " respectable " cit
izens could themselves remedy both the evils re- .
lerred to by refusing to rent their property for
Hi - uses mentioned, and by refusing to assist the
"dive" proprietors in procuring licenses; but In
view of Hie fact that the very 'respectable" own- .
ers of the property In question . do rent their:
property fur these purposes, ana ■ have done ;go ■
for many years, we have very little hope that
tills lecoiuiueiidatiou will receivj much atten
tion.

Tue recent deaih of one of two combatants as
the result of an unlawful tight held In one of the so
called athletic clubs of this city lias again called
alien! iou to tlie repeated open violations of the
State law of winch tlie clubs have been entity.
Tills (iiaud Jury did not liud it necessary to in
vestigate the circumstances of the fatal en
counter. Inasmuch as the surviving participant,
as well as the aiders and abettors ol the crime,
have been at rested and pi osecuted by informa
tion. Wearenlad to notice, however, that lha
Chief nf Police lias announced His Intention of
arresting all future paiticipants lv the so called
boxing contests, the toleration of wnich fur sev

sort uud headquaiters of professional uugl

Prize-fighting is a felony under our Slate
law, aud we are unable to sea the
distinction between a jui^s - fmhi with

as the result of the contest is to be determined
by the ability o! ono contestant to beat me other
into a cnndliiou of total or uarllal insensibility,

authorities will not allow their newly awakened

In laying down the duties with which wo have

ALONG THE RAIL.
Another Line Said to Be Head-
ing for the Bay Ciiy.
Another railroad scheme is in the air, and
the oracles are discussing its pros aud cons.
This time it is the Grunt Northern. This
Great Northern, it is the report, is aiiout to
extend Its lino from Butte City to Ukiah,
absorb the San Francisco and North Pacific,
aud give ban Francisco a transcontinental
line. Henry D, Minor, President oJ the
Eastern Railway of Montana, which is a
part of tho Great Northern system, arrived
hero receutly, ostensibly on a pleasure trip,
lie had been here only a few days when lie
was followed by P. C. Cruder, purchasing
agent of the same road, who shipped from
St. Louis a car-load of office furniture,
which it is argued looks as though they
meant to do some work nc the Coast,
It is known that the. Seligmans aro inter
ested in tins road, and that they recently
sold (ireat Northern bonds in London to
the amount ol 810,000,000. It is also known
thatthey hold Donahue bonds to tlie amount
of SKKJ.GOO, and fruin these facts those high
and wise io the "council of ihe mysteries"
draw a conclusion — tho conclusion that tho
Great Northern will extend its lines from
Hutte to Sau Francisco. Surveys have been
made as far as Uohe City, from which point
tin: line will extend in a southwesterly di
rection to Fort Bldnell. aud, crossing the
Southern Pacific track it few miles north of.
Redding, will run south through ilendocino

SCARCITY OF GAME.
Laws Needed Which Will Check
the Slaughter of Deer.
Hides Are Being Shipped to Oity Merchants
From the Country— A Law for the
Protection of Wild Ducks.
The growing scarcity of game bird; and ani
mals in this State has attracted the attention ol
sportsmen In both city and country who will pro
vide some measure at the next meeting of the
Legislature which, it Is hoped, will put a stop to
the Indiscriminate slaughter of the deer family. In
particular by hide-hunters who have been rap
idly decimating this noble came. There la a
law wblcn says:
Every person who shall bur, sell, offer or expose
for sale, transport or hare in his possession any
deer or deersKla or bide from which evidence of
Bex bits been removed, ii guilty of a misdemeanor.
While Mr. Tuustead was acting as Deputy
Game and Fish Commissioner lie did excellent
service in checking to a great extent the snip
meiits of deer-hides to this city. lie made quite
a number of seizures of skins from which the
evidence of sex had been removed, but through
some negligence on the pan of the Commission
ers the guilty lies escaped punishment and all
the bides were left to rot on the wuaives.
TUB L.AW VIOLATED. • :_
Since Mr. Tuustead resigned from the office,
which It it said did not recompense him lor
services rendered, me purchasers of deerskin* In
this city nave been receiving numbers of con-
SlgnmrntS of hides from country hucksters, who
purchase the skins from lilt- hunters.
it Is astonishing to note the rapid manner In
which ihe deer family lias been disappearing
within the past ten years. It is ereu a wonder
that any of the family exist in the wild state.
An idea of how these market hunters can de
stroy Hie came which Is not protected by Stale
wardens can be gleaned from the following arti
cles, which recently appeared in Harper's
Weekly, ou tbe disappearance of the buffalo:
SLAUGHTER OF BUFFALO.
"It seems impossible, especially to any one who
has seen them apparently as numerous as the
sands ou the sea shore, feeding on their Immense
uaiural pastures, that they could ever become
exllßCtj for when we look back only seventeen
years, and remember In what numbers they
roamed, even as tar east as Foil Haiker, In Ceu-
Ira! Kansas, we naturally ask ourselves, "Have
they leally all disappeared?" Some Idea of
how many there must have been at one lime
may be loriin-d of those killed from 18GS to
1881— a period of only thirteen years, during
which they were indiscriminately slaughtered
for their hides. lo Kau.sas alone there was paid
out between the dates specified 52,500.000 for
their botics gathered on tbe prairies, to be used
by various carbon works of the cor.nuy, princi
pally iv (it, Louis. It tequired about oue hun
dred carcasses to make oue lon, the ice aver
aging $8 a lon, equating over 51,000,000 of
bullalo In ouly thirteen years.
BHOBMODB FIGURES.
"These figures may appear preposterous to
those not familiar with Hi- great plains twenty
live years ago, but to those who have seen the
prairie black from horizon to horizon with the
shaggy 1 1 1 1 1 1 1- 1 •«, they are not so apt ailing. Iv
18G8 1 roue through oue single herd for three
consecutive days, which must have contained at
least 4,000,000; and In the spriu? of IMii'J the
train on the Kansas I'acllic Railroad was
delayed at a point between Fort Ilaiker
and Fort Hays from 1) o'clock In the uiorii
lug until 5 in tlie evening before it could
proceed. In consequence of a herd crossing the
traoK in f i out ol It. on each side of it aud to the
we-t as far as we could see— our vision was only
limited by the extended horizon of the flat
prairie— the whole vast area was black with the
surging mass of frightened buffaloes as they
rushed onward to the eoulli. How long the herd
bad been moving lv thai direction before the ar
rival of our tralu or how many of the huge ani
mals ii contained 1 cannot form the slightest
conception."
PROTECT THE DF.ER. : ■ • - :
The deer, which is the only species of large
game that now remains, is annually becomlug
less numerous and unless legislative measures
are Immediately provided thai will slop lUe
preseut warfare upon them by market hunters
venison will be a very scarce article of food in
the markets.
Un« ol the great attractions that California has
possessed for the tourist and pleasure-seeker,
lo say nothing of a large class of her own citi
zens, has been the wild game of her forests and
lue trout with which her brooks teemed. There
are some game and lish still remaining, which,
fortunately escaped capture or death, as the case
■nay be. In referring to the subject. .-. leading
sportsman said yesterday: "It none of the Dis
trict Attorneys In the various counties, the Sher
iffs, the Constables and the Justices of the
I'eace will not do their duty In the matter of
punishing the vandals, then Ihe Legislature
should provide for game wardens, as
other Stales have found It necessary to
do. There might be one State gamewarden,
with power to appoint deputies iv ditferent local
ities, or the duty of enforcing the came laws
might be placed In ibe hands of the Board of
Wardens, Uame of all kind is slaughtered in
and out of season, aud strlogent laws, with dep
uties or keepers appointed to eutoice them,
should be framed lo protect the same. The
i lines should be increased tenfold and then all It
will need to slop the present 'slaughter of (he
Innocents' ls a few examples made of the most
notorious of the fraternity ot market hunters
who are too lazy to toil in me harvest llelds."
A GOOD MEASIUIE.
Sportsmen feel decidedly pleased with the
action of the Hoard of Supervisors at a recent
meeting in passing a law winch will prevent i tie
sale- of wild ducks in ibis city during the close
season for quail and other feathered game. The
sportsmen of Sacramento and Stockton will en
deavor lo have the Supervisors of their cities
pass a similar law as large numbers of young
ducks have been shipped since the game season
closed to these places. *'.»: .»■■■-
