LETS HA\ E SANCTUARY
Come to think of it, why not sell Alaska to the b g
oame hunters and transient trappers, and ‘>pp
shovel and the hoe and wean the cow and let.the sneep
go off and forage and get chummy vi th. u
bear. Seward only gave seven and » halt mdlion
this waste acreage anyway; lets sell it foi ax-bits an
buy a bootlegger a drink. ^ f -_p i
The very much retired secretary says that if
should go so far as to declare open season on Kodiak
bear all the year round he would immediately be beset
bv all the big game associations m the world and all the
so-called sportsmen and life would simply become un
bearable and he’d better be out of his job which he now
is, goodness forbid. . _ . , ., u
In other words, Jardine simply dogged it. He fian -
lv admitted that his ruling was controlled and dictated
by the wealthy sportsmen of eastern United States who
would make a game reserve of Alaska, the future homes
of thousands of families and countless herds of kme
and sheep and goat. He directly opposed the idea that
Alaska can be a land of happy home-dwellers and took
issue with another government agency—the Alaska
Railroad—which strives to bring people in to develop
the Territory. Furthermore, he overlooked the fact en
tirely that the very department of . which he was the
head spends government money to raise livestock on Ko
diak that have furnished juicey steaks for the very bear
that he would protect.
When you ask the powers that be to raise the ban on
bear they raise their hands in holy horror, notwithstand
ing there are more and bigger and better bears in the
real remote sections—enuff to keep the big game hunters
busy for 500 years with their bang guns.
And if anybody starts out to stop war he starts the
dardest palaver. He traverses the earth signing up
peace treaties and every government immediately an
nounces a new' battleship program.
If the rank and file of Russian and . Chinese ever
find out wiiat they are fighting about it will be real
new's to them.
