Doty, of Sioux Fails: "At a meeting of the sportsmen of chia state at. Sioux Falls Nov. 14tli, 1 was '.-Vy.r N K'.lmund Vanco Cooke. named the chairman of a committee of llfteen to frame suitable game and lish laws tor this state. Thi.s com mittee will meet, in Sioux Fails Dec. 5th. We recognize the fact that wo have a herculean task before us. Wq alsttrncogtiize the fact that we need' the support, of the press of this state to make our efforts a success. We are not working in tho interests ol any individuals or ol a class, but for all who enjoy the sport of llshmg nn.'l hunting We earnestly solicit your support in our endeavors to have en acted a law that will perpetuate both hunting and ashing in our state. Wo ask that you will, through the col-, umns of your paper, give this meas ure which we are seeking to have enacted, the supi ort that you deem worthy. It was the unanimous opin of all attending this meeting, that spring shooting sh iuld be abol ished, and that the limit on chickens should be reduced, also that on quail. It was our idea to license each hunti er$1.00. By sodding we would be able to create a fund sufficiently large to pay a state itue wadren and dep uties, a salary which would enable them to enforce laws, aud not have! our game la^o a farce, as they are at: the present time."
