At first glance there may appear to be cause for con] gratulation in this.

Yet the law, in all its majesty, can only find some inci misdemeanor for which to punish them, What would the law have done if Goldie Porter and her companions had been 21 years of age? It is rather humiliating to think of this. As a matter of fact, the law is trying to punish these men for causing the deaths of four young people, what the court records may show. Four persons were killed, and something had to be done. On the other hand, had been no deaths, would there have been any for the sale of liquor to Goldie Porter and Christine Anderson? Goldie Porters and Christine Andersons are being bought liquor in Seattle and Georgetown every night ft is an infraction of the law so common as not to attract the slightest official or public attention don’t get killed in some spectacular manner nothing is said about it. sent to death, but they don’t come under the care of the coroner there is not to be done. The bartender who has been, convicted in the present case is the least blamable of the lot. The roadhouse pra- prietor is guilty to a greater degree. The full stigma of guilt is upon the officials of George- town, who allowed these roadhouses to operate. Their guilt somprises that of the bartender and roadhouse proprietor.

When Hiawatha went hunting—as you and I, dear reader, afe probably thinking of doing—it was all very simple and informal. lagoo, the steller, just Bim his weapon and said: “Go, my son, into the forest, “Where the red deer herd together. “Kill for us a famous roebuck.” And Hiawatha toddled blithely along, with no more to do about licenses and permits than a rabbit “All the birds sang round him, o'er him, ““Do not shoot us, Hiawatha.’” But there was no bewhiskered miscreant with a tin star under his wammus to hale him to court and fine him $10 per bird if he failed in this not-shooting part of the arrangement. BUT IF HE LIVED NOW, IN THIS, THE LAND OF HIS FATHERS, HE WOULD HAVE TO HAVE A LEGAL DEPARTMENT TO MAKE HIM AT ALL SAFE. HE WOULD RUN THE CHANCE OF A TERM IN THE PENITENTIARY IF HE USED THE WRONG SORT OF BULLET, OR A TOO-FREQUENT SHOTGUN, OR WENT ANYWHERE WITHOUT SUCH A BACKLOAD OF PERMITS, LICENSES AND OTHER PAPERS THAT THEIR CRACKLING WOULD ORDINARILY SCARE OFF ANY ROEBUCK EXCEPT A DEAF ONE.

One can't feel the way we used to feel about hunting after solemnly signing away his shoot-right for a mess of documents. It rubs all the bloom from the peach of a time we might otherwise have. Hunting now is a luxury for the rich; it costs so much in railway fares, in licenses, in back or another yhow, hunting is like kissing—it goes by favors.
