he does not thereby injure his neignbor. 
Mr. Bannon advances two very pecu- 
liar ideas in his article. First, that se- 
vere winters take heavy toll from coveys 
of quails, killing what might as well be 
taken by the sportsman, and second, that 
the farmers would take more interest in 
caring for the quails, and by increased 
watchfulness make the existence of a bag 
limit unnecessary, if the quails were his 
absolute property so long as they re- 
mained on his land. Suppose, in answer 
to the first, a covey contained twenty 
birds and a hunter kills half of them; 
would severe weather be more merciful 
on the remaining ten than it would have 
been had the hunter not killed his part, 
and if not what has that to do with it? 
As to the other idea above mentioned, 
the farmer already has all the benefits 
which can be derived from the splendid 
appetite and excellent digestion of the 
quail ; he may, I believe, kill them on 
his own land during the opening season 
without paying a license in any state 
where the killing of quails is at all per- 
mitted, and he may, if he so desires, en- 
tirely prevent others from killing them 
on his land, so that it is difficult to see 
why he should be any more interested 
in their welfare if the state were to turn 
them over to him absolutely.

MR. BANNON’S REPLY 
Dear Forest and Stream : 
A ny sportsman interested in this 
problem should read the learned 
opinions of the Supreme Court of the 
United States in (Seer v. Connecticut, 
161 U. S. 519. The Court traces and 
explains the origin of the doctrine that 
the state owns all game within its con- 
fines. Mr. Justice White, in that opin- 
ion, quotes with approval from Ex parte 
Maicr, 103 California, 476, as follows: 
“The wild game within a state be- 
longs to the people in their collective sov- 
ereign capacity. It is not the subject of 
private ownership except so far as tlw 
people may elect to make it so.” 
Ours is a government of the people, and 
it is for the people to settle the policy 
of the state with respect to property 
held in common. In Mr. Daniel’s own 
state (Arkansas) the Supreme Court de- 
cided in Organ v. State, 56 Arkansas, 
270, that, 
“As all right of property in them (the 
fish) is derived from the state, it is sub- 
ject to such terms as the legislature im- 
poses. It saw fit in the act assailed to 
confer a right of property, but to so 
limit it that the article should not be 
shipped from the state.” 
All that I have suggested is the con- 
conferring of a right of property, subject 
to reasonable regulations. 
Governments long since extinguished 
common ownership in many forms of 
property. The state vests individual 
ownership of game in the citizen who 
reduces the game to his possession in 
accordance with law. It may prescribe 
the conditions under which game may be 
held in captivity. It may prescribe the 
season during which game may be re- 
duced to individual ownership ; the quan- 
tity, sex, and kind of game that may be
