species of < game rarely hunted by
sportsmen. This is not 20 much because
of the difficulty Of killing the

found in the usual hunting grounds. as
are bear, deer, elk. etc. 1t is remote from
the common localities. but where found
is in goodly numbers. 1t ranges very
high up in the mountains, above timber

Ere outcome Of the senatorial cOntes

The popullsts missed their opportunity
when they did not at once get together
IN the beginning Of the contest and de-
eide upon a candidate. The democrats
played dog in the marger" because
their nine or ten Oers elected TO
the body by populist votes, could not
gobble up all the offices in sight, and
the republicans, because in the minority,
did not consider either principle or
manhood binding upon them and bolted
10 a body to u renegade democrat or
popuiist, or whatever it now is. Kyle,
also, no doubt, has sold himself out in
large part at least to them, and they
went half way to meet hlm and give
him the bride. TIE sequel will show up
the deal in time. Though the losers,
the populists appear to be the only par
