Governor elect Buchte's mild
boast that he has collected $4,000 for

he is making a collection agency of
his position; but it would have sound

his nomination in connection with
the donations. Or it might have i'm

This is Where the Deer go, Gentlemen.
A correspondent to the Meeker
Herald says that the Utes got away
with 900 deer in Colorado this season.
Was one of them punished? And yet
a ranchman who has lived in the
country as long as any of these Utes
is fined for killing one or two bucks
while the Utes have slaughtered
without regard to law, sex or size.
We believe in protecting the game
but not in u discriminating protection
of that which claims to be human,
and which from appearance at dis
lance would be taken for human, and
yet has not sufficient brains to become
civilized and show that it is human.
