WOLVES IN THE NORTH.
Montana's Gray Wolf--Increase OF
Wolves in Wisconsin

The gray wolf, the bane of the cat
tleman and tlockmaster. appears 10
multiply and flourish in defiance OF the
efforts of the hunter and the price set
upon his head. Advices from all sec
tons OF the range country report that
gray wolves are as numerous and des-
| tructive as ever. Range riders are
witnesses to the fact that the latest
and strongest steers are frequently
overcome by these ferocious beasts.
while the weak and infirm surrender
to their attacks almost without a
struggle. The livestock loss Of Mon
tana from this source cannot be calcu-
lated, but from the nature OF the case
it must be tremendous. Professional
hunters state that the gray wolf is an
exceptionally difficult animal TO cir
cunvent; his cunning is remarkable
| and his suspicious nature causes him
to avoid any locality which his keen
senses notify him has been invaded by
his human enemy. He is not a gre
garious animal preferring to roam in
wholesome killing as could be accom-
plished if large band should fall
within the power OF the hunter. He
avoids poisoned bats and dead ear
cesses; he is essentially beast of
prey, preferring fresh meat all the
time, and when the pangs of hunger
are felt he starts out to find something
with warm blood in it.
For these reasons wolf-hunting is
an extremely slow and precarious oc-
cupation; trapping, chasing and shoot
| ing are practically the only methods
that produce results, and attractive
! inducements are necessary to encour-
| age hunters to engage in that work as
| means of livelihood.
The Marshfield (Wis) Times states
that beyond any doubt the timber wolf
is fast gaining IN numbers in the
woods of northern Wisconsin until It
| is almost unsafe for a man without
means Of defense TO be found out alone
over night in the depths of these fer
| ests. In the counties of Bayfield,,
| Washburn and Douglas they are re
| ported in great numbers, and, although
! they are hunted Cor the bounty, their
numbers seem to increase instead Of
| decrease in late years. A hunter re-
| turning home one night not long ago
in Washburn county. is reported to
have killed seven out of a pack that
kept him a prisoner in a tree for some
hours. 1t was but few weeks age
that young woman near Spooner
while returning home alone at night
was compelled to seek refuge in tree
to save her life from pack of wolves
Many sheep, calves and hogs have
fallen prey to their depredations, ant
| the time is coming when for human
safety and a protection to property
these animals will have to be driven
cut. In winters of deep snow they are
not nearly SO bold. Other game, such
as deer and rabbits, being plentiful
the deep snow makes them easy prey
But this winter especially more com
plants of their boldness are heard
than ever before, and it would seen
from such that their numbers have
greatly increased.

ADULTERATED FOOD.

France knows how to protect the
small rights of her people. Anybody
who doubts the genuineness Of an
article of food that he has purchased
from a Partisan tradesman may take
it to the municipal laboratory for
analysis. 1t will cost him nothing to
have it aralyzed and the fact deter
mined whether is it unadulterated or
adul Grated, and If the latter, the law
deals with the offender without further
action on the part of the purchaser.
The shopkeeper is liable to be heavily
flied, imprisoned, deprived of the few
civil rights he is supposed to be other
wise entitled to and has to display
ccnspicuously in his shop window or
on his door fer year a large placard
bearing the words, Convicted of adul-
teration."

system. depends upon two things. First
the existing facts; and second, the out
look for the future.
First. as to the existing conditions In
Hawaii. The foundation Of Hawaiian
law is the common law Of England. The
statutes, court procedure and legal meth
DDS of Hawaii are based upon-many OF
them copies of-those OF the United
States. Most OF the lawyers and judges
Gated therein. The public school system
is based upon that of the United States,
and all are taught in English. More than
one-half the teachers are Americans.
English is the common language of the
country. United States currency Is the
currency of the country. Government and
private bonds, notes and mortgages are
payable in United States money. Practi-
cally manhood suffrage has existed since
been In operation since 1880. This is the
growth Of two generations, so that even
to the native Hawaiian 1t appears to be
the natural order of things.
The people of Hawaii as whole, are
Industrious, annually exporting more per
capita than any other nation.
There are no poor-hOuses, paupers, beg
GarS or trampS in Hawaii.
Inc native HaWaiianS are a cOnServa-
tive, peaceful and generous people. They
have had to struggle against the retro
gressive tendencies Of the reigning fam
lily; but large proportion of them with
stood such tendencies and are support

They participate on an equality with the

grant power to annex territory, ant
therefore the mower does not exist.

therefore the power does not exist.
This objection is based upon what is
known as the .strict construction the
Ory.' 1t was believed in by Jefferson. but
was abandoned by him when he annexed
Louisiana.
The constitution has since then been re-
peatedly interpreted in favor of annexa-
ton by the executive. Congress and the
supreme court of the United States.
Eleven instances are cited wherein the
executive has negotiated annexation
treaties
The Instances of congressional approval
of annexation are:
The annexation of Texas by joint reso-
luton; statute authorizing the annexa-
ton of guano islands, and the ratif1ca-
ton of the annexation of Midway Island
in the North Pacific.
The guano island legislation is especial
ly pertinent, at this time, for 1t shows
that as long ago as 1856 Congress APP
proved of insular annexation, and that
SO slight a consideration as limited
amount of fertilizing material Is suffi-
cient ground for annexation.
Under this legislation seventy islands
and groups of islands were annexed; mr.
ty-seven of them being in the Pacifc
ocean and thirteen in the Caribbean sea.
The first annexation under this statute
was in 1856, and the last in 1884
The annexation of Midway Island is of
especial interest, in that 1t is at the west
ern extremity of the group of which Ha-
waii is the easternmOst: and also because
the motive was to secure naval station,
which is the main reason now urged for
anneXing Hawaii.
Why, If 1t was proper to annex the
western end of the Hawaiian group in
1867, is it not now proper to annex the
eastern end of the same group? Midway
Island is 1900 miles west of Honolulu.
Congress appropriated and there was
spent the sum of $4,000 in trying to make
it into naval station. The attempt
failed. but it nevertheless remains United
States territory. and monument con-
structcd by the executive and Congress In
favor of the constitutionality and pro-
priety of insular annexation.

II the title remains In foreign govern
ment, 1t may be controlled by those hos
tile to the United States; and II in time
the United States should deem the forti-
ficatiOn OF Hawaii essential to it's policy
of exclusion, the local government might
refuse to allow It. @
Annexation does not necessitate fortih-
cation, but IL ever fertilization Is re-
quired, title will be an essential. Title can
be obtained now. What the future may
bring forth no one can tell
EIGHTH OBJECTION.
1t will be forerunner and form a
precedent for policy of unlimited an
nexation Of territory.
The United States has annexed all kinds
of territory, on the Atlantic, the Gulf of
Mexico. the Pacific and the Arctic islands
of the Pacific and the caribbean sea. It's
possessions extend as far west of San
Francisco, as Maine Is east, and as far
north Of Chicago as Florida is south. So
FAR as precedents are concerned, nothing
more Is required
But the status of Hawaii is different
from that of any other country. Its chief
value Is because 1t is the only point which
can be made a naval base of operations
against the Pacific coast. AS Captain
Mahan has said. 1T stands alone :
having no rival, and admitting of no RI
val" In the Atlantic. on the other hand.
there are hundred islands, any one of
which can be made base of operations.
In order to secure immunity from attack
on the Atlantic. all of these islands must
be secured by the United States. In or
der to secure immunity on the Pacific.
Hawaii alone needs to be secured.
III there were numerous other islands
In the Pacific, as there are In the Attain
tic, then the annexation of Hawaii would
form precedent for annexing them.
The annexation Of Hawaii is not pri-
marily. to secure additional territory or
commerce; but to secure Il unique, and all
powerful strategical point for the protec-
lion or that which it already owns. No
other foreign territory bears such a rela-
ton to the United States, therefore this
IS no precedent for other annexations.
