Iteferring to the law in the ease, the opinion twy: , It is observed that the mile pur pose of the apt, purporting to au thorize the governor to postpone or Bufpend , the law relative to open reason for hunting deer, Is for the protection of forest against fireH. nnd not for the conservation of game. It designates hunters ns a particular class which constitutes n menace to the forests. Absurdity Seen. 'The hunter who pays his license fco nd looks forward to his annual vacation, is thu prohibited from hunting leer . for two reasons, nnmely, the use f firearms and the huildins of fires. U is dHCi oult to conceive how a .forest fire enuld be started by the' use of flre iirpiH especially those used trt hlint loer, , . "Can It be .thai the legislature hftirl In mind that a rifle bullet Hulking a tree mlicht set It on fire? ;f, so, there should be additional. leirislation concerning target prac tice Prohibiting the unc of fire nrniH by deec hunters on account of' danger to forests la ab surd and unreasonable. "Wo next consider tlm other rea fon specified in the statut, namely, tho building of firos. Of course, a cam pf ire may constitute a real menace. Hut is it more so by reu sop of being utnrtcd by a hunter? I Hunters Iovo VoppmIh, "What about the Mln-can' tour lst!or the neophyte from the bright lights of Ih'oadway? It Is the pjiin lon of the writer that the average hunter lovtis the great outdoor. nnd appreciates the necessity of cxprrlsinp care to preserve our mwgnlfieent forents. . fit Is not difficult to conceive of, n statute which would afford ample protection to forests without thps striking at a particular class." linns on the hunt senson by varl nuH governors, ,n,lways at the he hryit of the state forestry office, in variably have broimht bivtet pro tests from h unteis.
