ention to the work of the Department. I wouldalso recommend that the provisions of the law that give Protectors one-half ofrecoveries be abolished in case their salaries are made $75 per month, for thereason that invariably when a case is reached for trial defendant alleges selfish andfinancial interests of the prosecuting official, with a cry that the only object is bloodmoney, which in many instances has a tendency to lessen the fine or the judgment,thereby defeating the ends of justice. Each year of the legal work of this branch of the Department, weak spots arefound in the law under which prosecutions must be made. Such instances havebeen found during the last year, and I trust amendments will be proposed that willperfect the law wherever found defective. In conclusion I desire to tender my thanks to your Honorable Body for thesupport always cordially given me in conducting the work under my supervision. All of which is respectfully submitted. J. WARREN POND, Chief Game Protector.
