c. Van Alstyne of Fort Worth
under certain necessary condi-
tons proposes to give ArdmOre
Il system of electric lights. He
canvassed the city pretty thor
oughly today and we are sorry
TO say he did not meet with that
degree of encouragement the
Importance of his proposed en-
terpriSe demands. He agrees
to put his plant in operation
when 600 lights have been guar
antecd him. So far he has on
| ly secured obligations for 3iJ
and he has begun to doubt his
ability to get the required num-
Der. The lack of lighted streets
and premises has long been re-
c)gniZ"d us one among our
most urgent wants and now that
the opportunity offers to secure
the Improvement, the people Of
Ardmore will stand in their own
way if they neglect to comply
with Mr.. Van Alstyne's very
liberal requirement. If you

PROTECT THE GAME.
There Is q Dspiorsble Lack of Interest
I'm the Matter.

Special Dispatch to the Standard.
Helena Jan. 1S.-H. i. Kenneth, chair
man of the state board of game and fish
commissioners. In his report to the gov
ernor filed to-day, deplores the lack OF in
terest taken by the state in the preserva-
ton of its game and fish. In the report he
says:
's,rhis board has found II almost limos
sible TO enforce the provisions OF the
present law during the past year. The law
provides for the appointment of wardens
by the county commissioners Of the sever
al counties upon the presentation OF a pc
tition signed by at least 100 taxpayers OF
the county; but contains no provisions as
to the salary TO be paid to such wardens.
In consequence Of this in many instances
where petitions have been presented
county commissioners have attached no
Importance to the law or its enforcement.
and have rendered 10 ineffective, either by
laying the petition over indefinitely or by
fixing the salary at such a small amount
that no one could be procured who would
assume the duties.
Many instances have been called to the
attention of the board where some of the
best trout streams In the state have been
almost completely depopulated during the
past year by the use Of explosives by per-
sons engaged I'm supplying the markets
with fish. We believe that II the laws re-
garding game and fish are violated in the
future as they have been In the past IL
will be but a few years when there will
be nothing to protect. On the contrary, II
the present laws could be enforced prop
erly Montana could always be kept one OF
the best game and FISH states in the union
and would be. in all probability. better in
10 years than at the present time"
Mr. Kenneth thinks the remedy lies with
the next legislature. He says: I'VE think
that most OF these difficulties would be
overcome. however II an appropriation OF
al least 5000 per annum could be secured
for the use OF the board in the appoint-
ment OF one state game warden and at
least two deputies. who should have all
the powers OF a sheriff I'm the entire state
in matters relating TO their Office"
Among other legislation recommended IS
the following. We suggest that the law
be so amended that fish can be caught
with the hook and line only, the whole
year; that one who wishes 70 stock a pri-
vate pond must obtain permission from
this board or from the state game war
den; and that deer may be killed from
Sept. until Dec. . OF each year"

Are Not or Never Wore Crazy.
Special Dispatch to the Standard.
Boise, Idaho. Jan. 1S.--Major Cavanah.
one OF the directors OF the Idaho insane
asylum at Blackfoot. makes the state
ment that there are inmates OF the insti-
tuition who are not insane. and who in
his opinion, never were. Carelessness of
the examining physician is responsible in
most instances and has been the means OF
allowing scheming rogues to place I'm the
asylum persons who they desired to get
out OF the way. The superintendent in
charge of the asylum has discovered sew
eral cases where patients are absolutely
sane. but the persons through whose in
strumentality they were sent to the asy-
lum refuse TO take them away. No appro-
priation is available for the purpose OF
returning such patients TO their homes
and they cannot be turned out to starve.
Some OF these persons have been driven
almost insane because of their incarcera-
ton, and would undoubtedly be raving
maniacs now but for the assurances of
the management of the institution. The
asylum directors are nonplussed to know
what TO do, and are talking OF arresting
those who refuse TO take away patients
who have been sent there under these cir
cumstanccs.
