ROBBING PETER TO PAY PAUL
Recent news dispatches convey the
astonishing information that owing to.
a shortage of funds the game warden !
at Seward has been dismissed. As j
Seward is the headquarters for hunt- j
ing parties on Kenai peninsula and as
all hunting parties from the west
ward clear and report in to the Sew
ard office the action of the Territorial
Board is a puzzle to Weal sportsmen.
Yesterday a party from California in-:
quired about hunting on Kenai pen- j
insula and there was no one here to j
give him first hand information. The j
game wardens at Anchorage and Cor- j
dova, where probably one hunting
party clears to half a hundred from
Seward, have been retained.. The
moose pastures are within a few
miles of Seward on the peninsula and!
it would appear that for the conveni
ence of hunters a warden would be
maintained here. But not so. Hunters

coming to Seward must en train foi

fields.
Shipments of furs through tins port,
and all furst must go through beie, to
get .vjtsV.e, will be ne'd up until a
warden can come down from Anchor
age or have some one here to attend to
the matter for him. Take the •Prin
cess Pat party, for instance, their
guides must report game killed to a
warden, and their trophies must be
cleared. Had they been forced to
wait on a warden they would have
missed the boat. There are hundreds
of arguments why a warden should be
stationed here in the heart of the big
game fields and not one why he
should not. Evidently some one has
blundered in robbing Peter to pay
Paul.
