WOLF

The wolf bounty question,
which has been an active one
nearly every legislative ses-
sion for the past ten years,
promises to come up again this
year with a bill for doublingthe
amount Of bounty paid each
year. Up to two years ago the
maximum which could be al
for that purpose was $5,-
600 per year, and this was
doubled two years ago to $l0,-
600. Now the Legislature will
be asked to double it again and
allow $4,000 fol. that purpose
each year. But however worthy
such a bill is, here is where the
lawmakers get achancet to dem
onstrate economy, and the
chances are that 4 request for
such an appropriation would be
refused, andth present amount
may be cut down. /

THE NEW YEAR.
1lsapid City, S. D.

When the stork Of time made
his fight over the Hills country
on New Years eve to bring the
dear young year 1907, there
arose from the town an echo
Of shot-guns and "44's" that
went far up into the canyons
among the cedars and thru the
frost covered pines. These
sounds that went up into the
hills and glades "where the gold
il, were the reverberations Of
the popping Of guns at mid
night from enthusiastic groups
within the city limits who were
watching the passing Of the old
year and the borning Of the
younster with which they will
have to do for another twelve
month. For Rapid City and.
its citizens the beginning ofthis
new year means the dawning Of
anew era in their history-the
best year they ever had-and.
they are beginning to know
that. To Western South Da-
kota that has SO long lain on
the map, an uncovered country,
SO to speak, it means also a
kind Of unwilling of the best
country onthe earth and, when
the spring shadows Of 1907
shall have cleared away between
Rapid and the Missouri river
more than ten thousand set
tiers will have been disclosed do
ing the business Of turning over
aglebe-landthat has few equals
ii this grand country Of ours.
At this time it will bein or
dor towatch Rapid City grow,
and also to subscribe for the
UNIoN-STocKMAN at $l.50 the
year. The Union las q few
news once-a-week, and is rising
up for Rapid Cityand all the
new country.

however, to make the defense
Of a business proposition as to
"high rates Of freight" to Rapid
City. The merchants of Rapid
City, who have in the years
past been co npelled to add to
the price of their merchandise a
profit that would cover trans
portation charges, have been
listed by reason thereof with

tons. They have been gibed
and .jeered at with the story Of
the freight on a shave, or a glass
of beer, being uniformly five
cents, and all the other ironic
chestnuts Of the street. Now,
with your kind indulgence per-
NIT the editor Of the UNION to
set down a few figures that
occurred this week in the pur-
chase Of a roll of virgin white

By reason Of being strictly in

to the watch being kept on the
growth of Rapid City; the
UNION finds it has to do also a
bit of side stepping to keep
from making reference to the

it is at this time Unfamiliar but

would seem te indicate that it
is something of a Gamble.

Famous Newspaper Man.

William b. Curtis, the IA
nous correspondent Of the Chi
cago Record-Herald, writes a
two column letter for his paper
every day in the year without
lntermission. His powers Of
sustained work are as great a
as his FACULTY of always making
his matter interesting.
Probably no other newspaper
correspondent in the country is
read so regularly and eagerly
by so many thousands Of mon
and women as Mr.. Curtis. Mr..
Curtis has travelled several times
around the world, visiting every
country under the sun and writ
ing a larger Of brilliant and in
teresting letters Of travel than
were ever before produced by a
single hand. Many Of these
have later been reprinted in
book form. One Of his latest
expeditions for the Record-Her-
aid Nas through Mexico, re-
salting IN a series of letters as
entertaining as those he wrote
a few years ago from India,
Turkey and the Holy Land.
His forthcoming letters from
Ireland, Russia and Germany
will rival in Importance and in
terest any Of his previous con-
tributions.
Beginning his career in Chi
cago as a reporter in 1872, Mr..
Curtis rapidly rose to be man
aging editor. He resigned that
position to accept a government
appointment as secretary Of the
South American commission.
So brilliantly did he perform
the duties Of this office that
James e.. Blaine, Secretary Of
State, placed him at, the head
of the Bureau Of American Re
.publics. At the worlds fairin
Chicago he distinguished him
self as the executive head Of the.
Latin American department..
He is q member Of almost every

Quoting fror arr article In The
Times. Dispatch advocating the orea-
ton of state board Of charities in
This State. the Springfield Republican
suggests that perhaps two boards, one
for the prisons and the other TOR the
charitable institutions, as IS the Mas
sachusetts way, might be best, but
adds that In any event State bonrd
Of charities could at the start exer-
else such oversight as is plainly
needed.
The work might be divided, but one
board would do for Virginia as a
starter. 1t Is no untricd experiment.
Massachusetts, and various other States
have kept their prisons and altnshouses
under inspection for years. and In no
case. to our knowledge, has a State
board of charities been abolished
There is an obvious lack of inspcc-
ton says our Springfield contempo-
rary of Virginia. and such tco-ordi-
nation as would not only remove the
abuses Of administration. but encour-
sge the oduction of u modern re-
formatory methods and progressive
administration"
Virginia is not too old to learn of
others. The nero fact that there has
been no Inspection in all these years
makes State board OF charities all
the more necessary.

- Law making is a fine art. and they
upon whom the difficult and delicate
task rests should have every facility
Tor their work. They should at least
fave the full benefit of the delibern-
tions and conclusions of men similarly
employed elsewhere. To this end an
up-to-date reference library is reces-
sary. wisconsin has such library
and so has Maryland. These libraries
place at tho service of the law-nakers
the best ailI latest experience of leg
islators in other States. In Wisconsin
ctalists from the State university and
by the manager of the reference de-
partment Of the State Library.
In Maryland the service Is perform
cd largely by the city of Baltimore.
The Baltimore reference library is un-
der the immediate direction OF a grad
nate of johns Hopkins University and
a board Of supervisors, composed OF
the president Of that university, the
Mayor, the City Solicitor. the president
OF the Alunlclpal League anu TIE pftsi-
dent OF the Merchants and Manufac-
,urers' Association. Its special work
Is to Investigate the laws OF Maryland
and other States, the municipal regu-
iations of cities and so on. and it then
gives the Information thus accumu-
lated to members OF tho State Legis-.
lature ana OF City Councils. More
over it aids In the preparation of bills
and ordinances.
When member OF the Legislature
or Of any city Council desires to in
troduce bill or an ordinance, by
going to tho library he may find legls-
lation in other States or cities bearing
on the eubject, and 1t is needless to
say that his work is thereby greatly
facilitated.
This is but g. nleagre outline of the
reference library and its work, but it
is sufficient to show the plan and scope;
and 1T ought to be sufficient to show
the desirability and Importance of hav-
Ing such an adjunct to the State Libra
