the work of slaughter. When the
clubs begin to descend and the rab-
bits fall dead right and left the fright
of the victims in the corral becomes a
veritable panic. Higher and higher
they leap against the wire fence, but
always they are flung back, and the
vicious club descends and ends their
existence. Blood is scattered from one
end of the corral to the other, and
Nsioon the Enclosure is literally car
peted with dead jack rabbits. Strange
as it may seem, the women who take
part in these hunts do not hesitate to
seize clubs and take part in the work
of slaughter in the corrals.
If the run has been for sport only
the animals are divided among the
hunters, but if it is for market pur-
poses the animals are beheaded and
dressed and hung in cold storage until
the cannery can use them. The Ore
gon cannery is using about 1000 pounds
of jack-rabbit meat a day, and orders
are said to be coming in so fast that
the cannery can hardly supply them
Jack rabbits have always been a ia
bic delicacy with Western ranchmen.
Their meat is stronger than that of
the cotton tail, but when properly
cooked is very pleasant to the taste
Now that the jack rabbit is being in
troduced in cans to the worlds kitch-
ems it is quite likely that his sphere
of influence will be widely increased
and it is only a question of time when
the establishment of jack rabbit farms
for the propagation of this table deli
cacy becomes a common thing in the

Occur dAlene independently
At the time of holding the republican
state convention two years ago the
power and the prospect of dislodging
them was not the brightest Under the
conditions existing at that time no one
was particularly anxious to take the
various nominations on the state ticket
and make what looked like an almost
hopeless fight This year things are
changed The republicans were vic
torious two years ago and it is almost
certain that they will win again this
time. AS a natural consequence the
candidates for the various offices are
very numerous and there is a strong
rivalry between them.
Governor Morrison has given us a
ton. an administration that needs no
defense. or for which we are called
upon to make apologies. His position
on questions Of public interests is
right. He is entitled to a renomina-
ton by all the rules of fair play and
good politics. II he is turned down it
at once puts the republican party on
the defensive He took a strong posi-
ton in favor OF state repositories for
the state money. He believes and in
sists that the state and not the state
treasurer should be the beneficiary
from the interest earned by the state
funds. Although the law passed by
the last legislature on this subject was
declared unconstitutional by the SUI
preme court on technical grounds. the
principle is right and should prevail.
II the republican party refuses him a
denomination they will place them
selves in a position to be charged with
insincerity in this particular instance
even although they declare for 1t in
their platform.
We repeat. he made the run two
years ago with the chances against
him ne was successful and has given
US a good clear administration that
we can we'll be proud Of and is entitled
to a denomination.
The only opposition to him comes
from men who either have rival ambi-
tions or who are disgruntled because
they have not secured appointments

STANLEY'S WORK

Henry NJ Stanley. who has just died
day. Others had worked more patiently
and accomplished more substantial re-
suits. OF these Livingston was one,
who had devoted the best part Of his
life to exploration Of large district OF
interior Africa. Livingston's work was
largely upon his own initiative and his
travels were accomplished almost
alone.
But Stanley's career was more spec
tacular. and indeed the time had come
for the interest of the modern world in
"'the dark continent" to be directed to
practical results on a large scale. 1t
was Stanley's search for Livingston, of
whom there had been no tidings for a
long time that led him to the center Of
the stage. The expedition which STAN
ley led was large and pretentious one
thoroughly armed and equipped for any
emergency. and he demonstrated sub
stantial qualities Of leadership, sue
ceding in the quest and also in acquir-
ing much new information regarding
interior Africa and in stimulating pub
lie interest in that wonderful and IL
limitable region.
The succeeding expeditions directed
by Stanley were still more pretentious
and the results more important. With
in decade the world was we'll ac-
Quainted. not merely with the main,
geographical landmarks OF interior
Africa but also with the practical as
pectS Of it's probable future. There was
. TINA when sentimentalists cried out
much against the "reminiscences OF
SANKEY'S policy. emphasizing his cru
city" to the natives. The same criti-
cism has been often made Of the way
In which the Puritans cleared the In

The truth Of the matter seems to be
that he did not permit himself to be

objective point in spite OF the savage.
who tried to stop him, some Of then
getting badly hurt.
The. name Of Stanley will be forever
identified with the opening up Of in,
terror africa to modern enterprise ant
civilization, a process which has onl,
fairly begun Notwithstanding all tn,
progress Of the last quarter Of cen
fury. For hardly had Stanley's report
emphasized the Importance OF the mat
ter before the European government

colonial establishments there. The!
were urged on by the commercial spiri
of the time. Thus civilization within
that time has accomplished more in tn
African field than it had in hal
dozen centuries before.
