says "we, need a s
fair general law, which
applicable to the state in its en
tirety, with no county excepted"
and adds that it does not pro
pose to endorse the visionary
schemes of Mr. Visart.
This is certainly appropos; all
the bills suggested by this ex
officio game warden* have called
for the creation of too many new
offices and the people feel that
all our criminal laws can be en
forced without so many addi
tional officers, whose salaries or
fees must be borne by them.
"One of the most arbitrary
and useless laws in this regard
is the one which prohibits non
residents from hunting and fish
ing in the state. It has brought
ridicule and unpopularity’upon
the state. A citizen cannot take
his relatives or guests out for a
day’s fishing, if they happen to
be from another state, without
violating the law. The fish and
fWAvmA n'P fliA afofo aVimilrl hp nrn
tected, but thre is no use in go
ing to foolish extremes in an ef
fort to do so.”
This too meets with our hear
ty approval. Arkansas is about
the only state in the union
which takes so selfish a view
and, while the law has not been
enforced, simply because it did
not reflect the feeling of the peo
ple, it should be repealed. To
fine some visitors or transient*
who had merely wet a line to en
joy our sport, would be a mock
ery to our hospitality and pro
gressiveness and yet under the
law this is all possible.
Shorten the open season on
deer, turkey, woodcock, quail
and such game as is fast disap
pearing and fix a kill limit for
the game hog., A general law
of this character, would meetj
with the approval of a large ma
jority of our citizens and legis
latures of recent years have
been neglecting the demand for
such changes.
