BIG PRESERVE
FOR WILD GAME
LOUIS
NEW ORLEANS. May 18 (by Asso
ciated Press).—If the legislature
passes a bill of acceptance, Louisana
will have acquired a veritable empire
of the wild, stretching along the Gulf
of Mexico for a distance of 75 miles
and comprising an area of 500 square
miles.
The bill of acceptance is only a
formality and the state Conservation
Department already has begun to out
line the work necessary to keep the
tract safe for creatures of the wild.
The property consists of Marsh
island with 78,000 acres of land pur
chased by Mrs. Russell Sage and
given to the sfate as a game refugp
and a tract of 85,000 acres in Ver
million and Cameron parishes, on the
coast, given by the Rockefeller Foun
dation adjoining Marsh island is the
present state game farm on land
belonging to the Mcllhenny interests
of 60,000 acres. Lying between the
game farm and the Rockefeller tract
in what is known as the Grand Chen
ier tract of 85,000 acres which the
s*ate expects to acquire in the near
future.
This will give Louisana what is
believed here to be the greatest wild
life refuge in the world. The great
domain is patrolled by agents of the
1 reservation Commiss on and on it
all sorts of game are protected and
propagated.
Edward A. Mcllhenny, wealthy salt
mine owner, has given great tracts
of land as well as large sums of
money to aid in the work.
EXPENSES OF
CONVENTIONS,
ON INCREASE
—.♦
CHICAGO, May 18 (by Associated
Press).—The directing genius of four
Republican conventions in the past,
Fred W. Upham, Republican national
treasurer, this year has planned his
fifth and greatest one.
Mr. Upham has been chairman of
the Chicago convention commitee for
16 years and in that time probably
has promoted more national political
gatherings than any man living. He
has organized and financed the local
arrangements for the Republican
gatherings since 1904.
Every four years the planning of
the big gathering has been a more
complex and more costly affair. In
1904. the first year the Republicans
met at the Chicago Coliseum, the
convention arrangements cost $70,000.
In 1916 the expenses had increased
to $110,000 and this year the sum will
exceed $150,000.
To raise this money, contract for
building alterations, extra seats,
decorations, tickets, badges arid all
the other myriad details of staging
the big quadrennial spectacle, in
which more than 13,000 delegates and
spectators will this year participate,
is Upham’s task.
Cost of altering the Coliseum and
decorating it will alone be more
than $50,000 this year. The task of
obtaining and then safeguarding the
tickets is a problem in itself. The
admission cards are printed on Safety
paper, in special inks, and then
locked in vaults until the Thursday
before the convention. None are sent
by mail, all being distributed here.
In spite of these presautions, many
fall into the hands of speculators, who
retail them anywhere from $60 to $100
each; and even counterfeiting of the
cards is not unknown.
