DISCUSSED WOLF BOUNTIES.
Montana StOckmen Favor a Few Changes
In the Present Law.

HELENA, Jan. pa meeting OF
about twenty-five representative stock
men from all portions of the state was
held last evening in the federal court
room for the purpose Of discussing the
bOunty question. 1t was decided to
recommend to the legislature that the
bounty be fixed at 81 on all wolves,
coyotes and pups, instead of SIS as at
present, and that the bounty tax be
raised from three mills to four mills.
1t was also recommended that Indians
be not allowed to receive bounty upon
wolves and coyotes they may claim to
have killed in Montana.
The Stockgrowers association will
also throw safeguard around the
law in the form of reward of from
$500 to 81, 900 for the arrest and con-
viction of any person guilty of bring.
ing coyote or wolf skins from another
state or territory. The purpose in
recommending that Indians be not
paid any bounty is to discourage the
practice of Cree Indians bringing in
pelts from Canada to this state.
The meeting was representative of
the leading stock interests of the state.
Senator Hopkins was elected chair.
man and Representative McCone, sec.
retary.
During the general discussion Sen
ator Mclean said if the bounty on
coyotes is reduced the sheepmen will
not object.
Representative Hilger, of Fergus,
thought bounty of three dollars on
coyotes and five dollars on wolves
would be all right. This was put in
the form of motion and the vote
stood to I. The chairman declared
it lost. Colonel Rice, of Fort Ben
ton, moved tina: the bounty be four
dollars all round, and the levy in
creased one mill. This motion was
finally accepted by the meeting.
The bounty debt was talked over
generally. 1t was stated thai it would
take an extra levy of at least four
mills to wipe it out within the next
two years. The governors report
showed that the debt now amounted to
$l90, 900, while the revenue on this ac-
count is only $4,000 per year. In
Guiding the license collections last
year the total revenue for the stock
industry was 100000 and this would
be applied to wiping out the present
Indebtedness. The stockmen were all
agreed that the debt should be wiped
out.
With the understanding that moth
ing the meeting might do would bind
the members of the senate and house
committees in their future actions, the
meeting adjourned.
