Dear Lkaiikk: Once more we hunt

Alibough W. never played iTgame
of potil, he lias had Bume-‘expcrieiTiec”
fwttd paid for it. too), and perhaps as '
mmrh obswrvatton wr wr t«ry that has
been £o mill.' The most prominent
hog law man in iMi .-fKtyfa, wants a
hog-law to force iiiin-toshut his hogs
up to keep them out of bisjfatfet tank,
aud another wants a Itog raw to keeg^
his chickens, out of tfre garden, and
auli-b<>g law men Want ttieir neigli-
bors inrsefe ■ and-cattle to keep out of
thblr fields without feijclng against
them. The first two are parallel cases,
and the lust is common sense and jus-
tice- I am forced to fence ugninsi
y«uir stock/ahd'ymi lity I~ must shot
my slock up. A tiioe.law which al-
lows one man to say, “you do as l say,

cqinpetent - corresp--ndeut from thl«*
community in Robin Hood, who
will truthfully report, and I trust re-
