| mock indians in 1859, which provided
that .'Lhe Indians shall have the right
TO hunt upou the uEorcvpied lands OF

ing virtually was that the stats had no
jurisdiction over government lands
within its territory. the supreme
court held that states had the right TO
pass game laws that: would be opera
tive against Indians as we'll as whites,
even on unoccupied government lands.
and that any former treaty between
the Indians and the govern ment could
uot deprive the state of this right. In
delivering the opinion of the court, Mr..
Justice White said:
"The power OF all the states to regu.
iate the killing Of game within their
border will not be gainsaid, yet, if the
treaty applies to the uuoccupied land
of the United States in the state of
Wyoming, that state would be beraft
of such power, since every isolated
piece OF land belonging to tne United
States as private owner, so long as i,
continues, to be unoccupied land,
would be exempt in this regard from

most favored localities in the world,
and the attention of the world cannot
be better attracted to our wonderful
resources, than by exhibiting what We

A Device, Thai Is Used With Good RESULT
In Minnesota.

A Device That Is Used With Good Results
- In Minnesota
The Minnesota farmers have been
| able to save many crops from destruc-
uion by grasshoppers by using what
they call the grasshoppsr dozier, a
device that is inexpensive, and might
be found an effective instrument for
exterminating the pests In this couu-
try should they again make their ap-
pearance next season. Il is described
as follows:
"a sheet of ordinary sheet-iron, such
as is used for making stovepipes was
turned up II inches around the edges,
and riveted at the corners. This
made shallow pan about eight feet
long, feet broad sud II inches deep.
TO the bottom of this were rivited the
ak small strips which could be-
fastened to the three runners on which
the pan rested. To the rear side of
the pan was screwed light wooden
frame, as long as The pan and II foot
high. Over this frame piece OF can.
vass was stretched. This frame served
tbe important ottce of throwing back
ali those grasshoppers that otherwise
would jump clean over the pan and
throw them into The oil.
"1he runners on vt;ch the pan
stood were usually made o. s9plings or
email pieces of boards having an up
ward curve in front to prevent them
from catching in the ground The
front ends of the runners were all
fastened by screws to cross-piece,
which was in turn drawn by two ropes,
one at each end. These ropes were
joined in front and fastened TO single
tree. Sometimes two hopper-doziers
were fastended to long pole by means
of short ropes; this was very easily
drawn by one horse. just In front of
the pan was fastened piece of rope
which swept ths ground few inches
in advance, and served to stir up the
hoppers and make them jump into the
pans. In the pan was laid piece of
cloth which was frat saturated with
water. About a.pipr OF kerosene was
then thrown ia and the upright sheet
or sail of CANVAS moistensd with oil.
The machine was then drawn over the
pasture, or wherever the hoppsrs were
rhickesr. In a short time it was
usually seen TO be partially filed with |
dead and dying insects.
"The slightest touch of kerosene,
either from The pan or from the can.
vas sheet, meaus death to the hopper, ;
Tor the oil spreads over its body ia the
sa' 2 way that d single drop vii. spread
over i large surface OF water. II seems
TO produce paralysis, which is first
shown by the .stiifening of the legs.
A very large proportion OF the hoppsrs /,
that came In contact with the oil in
the pan, Immediately jumped out again,
but they invariably died in the course !

" DON'T SCRATCH"


Says Asj. Guthrie to Populists and Dsms-
cr.es-Ths Electoral Fusion for
Bryan.
Maj. VIM. A. Guthrie, the Peoples
Party candidate for Governor, reopen
ed his campaign last Monday at Smith
field. Owing to the fact that the ap-
tised, only about $50 assembled in the
siOners were in session, but they grace
manned to hear the speech.
Mr.. Guthrie was introduced by Mr..
d. r. Massey, Peoples Party County
Chairman, in q few we'll chosen words.
Mr.. Guthrie stepped forward, thank
ed the County Commissioners for their
courtesy, and then began his speech by
saying that it was not his mission to
abuse either men or party. He then
gave a resume of the Republican and
Democratic party platforms for the
past twenty years, showing that free
coinage of silver had always been a
plank in their platforms. Mr.. Guthrie
then read the Stanley Matthews resO-
luton (Which recently appeared in the
CAUcAsIAN), and said that this resolu-
ton was passed in 1873 by RepuDli-
can Senate and a Democratic House,
thus showing that both parties at the
time favored bimetallism.
He then quotes an extract from Mr..
Mckinley's speech in 1891 denOuncing
Mr.. Cleveland's gold advocacy. CThe
full quotation can be found in "COl
Dockerys Pronunciamento", who also
makes use of the same quotation in his
article). If Mr.. Mckinley was honest
in 1873 and in 1891 how can he be hon.
est in his present declaration for the
gold standard, asked the speaker? Maj
Guthrie then showed that the Peoples
party forced the present financial
question to the front and under the
leadership of VIM. j. Bryan, the can.
didate of three parties, victory would
be assured if all voters who really de-
sired the free coinage of silver would
vote for the electoral ticket as ar.
ranged by the Peoples Party, and Dem.
ocratic Party State Executive com
mittees.
"DOn't scratch the name of any cleo
tor on that ticket, if you do that will
only help to elect the Mckinley cleo.
tors. l urge you all, to lay aside par
tisan feeling in this matter and let u.
put Bryan in the White House."
Maj. Guthrie did not refer to S tat,
matters and his whole speech was de
voted to National politics. At tn.
close Mr.. Guthrie announced his cand
idacy for Governor and asked all VIII
would to vote for him.
| If there was any person in that au
dience who was lukeWarm in support
of the electoral fusion ticket it can b.
unhesitatingly said that Maj. Guthrie'
speech aroused his enthusiasm for it
and we believe will vote the fusiol
ticket straight.
