Vietnam or Thailand ? Vote for the TOP Country of the Week !
Five times was a bill to repeal the spring-shooting law introduced and defeated! Even after the bill had passed both houses by good majorities, the Governor declared that he could not sign it.
Last year the saloon element thought that they had a large majority of the votes in the legislature pledged to vote their way. It looked like it; but when the decent people again rose and demanded justice for the birds, the members of the legislature stood by them in large majorities. The spring-shooting, bag-limit and hunting-license laws were not repealed.
Massachusetts is to be roundly congratulated on having so thoroughly cleaned up her sale-of-game situation. Incidentally, five bills for the repeal of the Massachusetts law against spring shooting were introduced, and each one went down to the defeat that it deserved. The repeal of a spring-shooting law, anywhere, is a step backward ten years!
