tion OF the northern Indians IN Montana the
Governor says that although rations have
been supplied them. they are now in a de-
plorable condition. and he fears that many
OF them will die during the coming winter.
He calls attention 10 the continued slaugh-
Ter OF game In the Yellowstone Park. lie
declares that the late Superintendent of the
Park and his associates are entirely worth
less and about as competent to discharge
their duties properly as a Sioux Indian Is to
run locomotive. He recommends the ap.
pointment- OF experienced woodsmen to take
care Of the Park, and suggests that United
States cavalry be detailed to guard its bor-
ders, which are now the resort OF escaped
criminals.
Much space is devoted by the Governor to the
cattle question. He says: "Canadian officials
and the Dominion press, aided by certain Chi
cago stockyard men, who fear diversion in
their business, have maligned and out
rage0usly attacked the health of wyoming
and Montana cattle and the movements on
the part Of stockmen towards obtaining
foreign market are bitterly opposed"
In conclusion he recommends that no
polygamist Mormon be allowed to pre-empt
lands. He thinks this prohibition would be
step in the complicated problem OF extin-
gushing the overshadowing evil of Nor
monism.
