EDITORIAL ENDORSEMENT 



From The Albuquerque Morning Journal: 



The game refuge is the latest and most promising development of 

 the difficult work of game protection. The old plan called for open and 

 closed seasons, for limits on individual bags, and for sharp prosecution 

 of offenders. The plan of Dr. Hornaday adds to these purely defensive 

 measures the refuge, in which the game may thrive and multiply safe 

 from the gun of the sportsman and the pot-hunter. . . . New Mexico has 

 an abundance of animal life, and the mountains of the forest reserves 

 are" admirably adapted for refuges for its preservation.

 RESOLUTION 



Whereas, Dr. W. T. Hornaday has presented a practicable plan for 

 increasing our supply of big game and preventing the impending extinc- 

 tion of rare species ; and

 agricultural or stock-growing interests of New Mexico ; therefore, be it 



Resolved, That this Association heartily endorses that plan, and here- 

 by instructs its Executive Committee to take such measures as will place 

 it before and secure the endorsement of each member of this Association,
