EVERY man in the Big Hole car
ries a rifle, whether on horseback or
travelling with a team to trade at a
store or attend church, In anticipa-
ton Of getting an opportunity to kill
a wolf and secure the big bounty Of
fered for the scalps
1.-TWO Of the prominent ranchmen
and stockmen who reside near Chalk
Bluffs have secured several hundred
dollars In subscriptions from the
ranchmen to pay a bounty Of $25 for
each wolf scalp in addition to the
bounty OF $40 paid by the state. 1t is
said that not more than 20 wolves
have been killed in the basin during
the last six years, but in that time
thousands of dollars worth Of stock
has been restroyed by these pests.
$50 far as known only one wolf has
been poisoned in the Big Hole, and
that was 13 years ago. They are more
wary and cunning than a fox and
can smell a trap a mile away; they
refuse to take poison, and as their
depredations are committed in the
early dawn or i'm the night, 1t is sell
dom that one is seen, even by the
most astute hunters"

WOLVES ARE ACTIVE.
Only Dozen in One Small Part of
Montana DO Immense Damage.

One of the most prominent men OF
the Big Hole section who was in the
city expressed the opinion that there
were only a few wolves left in that
country, but that the few made Il
mighty interesting for the stockmen,
says a Montana paper. He says these
wolves are very hard to trap, refuse
to take poison and that the most ex-
pert hunter might try for weeks
without getting within rifle shot of
one
"There are not more than a dozen
wolves in the whole watershed OF the
Big Hole river" said this gentleman.
"And one of the best hunters in this
country, Fred Francis, who Is familiar
with every nook and corner in the
valley, is Of the opinion there are not
more than half a dozen. l am willing
to admit, however, the few there are

Only one wolf has been killed there

AUTO ROAD TO HOOD RIVER.
Portland Autoists Planning Fine
Highway Up the Columbia.

Probably the first automobile road
that will be improved out Of Portland
will be a highway up the Columbia
river to Hood River, says the Port
land Telegram. For several seasons
the motorists of the Rose city have
and have finally outlined a plan for a
road to Astoria. The Astoria business
men will then complete It to the
ocean. A new scheme that has been
worked up by prominent AUTOMOBILE
lists of the city is for a river bank
highway to Hood River.
The Hood River commercial club
has taken the matter up and II Hood
River men will furnish from $4,000 to
$4,000 the Portland autoists will put
up the remainder. If no hitch oc-
ours in the proceedings the road will
be built through this year and it will
be only a three-and-a-h half-hour trip
from Hood River to Portland
When that road is completed a
great start will be taken toward Civ
ing Portland the network of good
roads that have long been dreamed
of. That will make a 6O-mlle stretch.
From Portland to Astoria will give
another 100 miles and from there to
the seaside will make q total of about
$50 miles of good roads. The tourist
will then have a stretch OF country to
oil -,
farm by way of river and city to the
ocean.
The automobile club will hear an
official presentation of the subject at
Its annual meeting April /. The club
is more flourishing than ever before
In Its history and starts out the 1908
season with $50 new members. Fif-
ty new ones have been secured with

E. c. Grotewohl, conductor Of a
through freight train on the Texas and

Donaldsonviile. When the train

NohI jumped off and obtained his or.
ders from the local operator. He
then boarded the train about halfway
down its length, and mounting to the
Top OF the cars, began to make his
way to the locomotive ia order to de-
liver the orders TO the engineer.
After proceeding short distance up
the road, the engineer reversed the
throttle and hroughtthe traint to astand-
8 i'll, the conductor having failed to
nand him the orders received at Donald-
sonville. The engineer and brakeman
thereupon made a search for the miss
ing conductor and found his body
lying beside the track. near an open
lag between two cars. It is supposed
that while making his way along the
top of The train the unfortunate man
missed his footing and fell between
The cars, the wheels passing
over his body and cutting it com
pletely in two just below the armpits.
The remains were brought to Donald

Remission Of Tax Penalties Advised.

In q statement given out for publi-
cation at Shreveport on the 28th OF
December, Gov. Blanchard favors the
remission of penalties on all state,
parochial and municipal taxes col
lected during the present month,
and the reasons assigned for this ac-
tion are cogent and commendable.
The governor said:
Representations having been made
to me Of the great difficulty the people
are experiencing in raising money to
meet this years taxes, if I had the
authority under the law I would issue
q proclamation directing all sheriffs
and tax collectors throughout the
state to allow tax payers the whole of
the month OF January in which to pay
their taxes without penalties. would
do this because of the financial strin-
gency of the times-the inability OF
the people TO obtain money through
the usual channels.
ST would do this for the further rea-
son that over a large section of the
state great disaster came upon the
people by reason of the ravages of the
boil weevil In the cotton fields.
s'The financial situation is so dis
tressingly acute that | am sure, we're
the general assembly in session, that
body would enact measure relieving
tax payers of penalties during at least
the month of January.
81 think the sheriffs and tax collect
ors should receive payments of taxes
throughout January without exacting
penalties. and while have no au-
thority to order this done, II 1t be done
I will. as governor, sustain this action
as far as in me lies.
HThe city council OF Shreveport
some time ago took action relieving
tax payers of penalties as to city taxes
for period of one month.
II recommend this action of the
council to the municipal and parochiaI
authorities throughout the state. y
