but will be conducted by the new
owners.
1t is the intention of the owners
to enlarge their business and to
operate it on a great deal larger scale
than it has been heretofore. The
concern will handle all kinds of fuel,
grains and hay, builders supplies, i'm
plements, wagons, buggies, and sewer
pipes. They will commence in the
near future to erect large hay barn
and from time to time will erect other
buildings in the other branches of
their business as required. They in
tend to put in for the trade of the
Rock Springs coal. This is a super
Tor grade of coal, which has
not been handled by any firm in
the city for the past two years, and
while of a better quality it will be
sold for about the same price as the
other grades. Many changes will be
made about the office. The present
old office will be so arranged that il
will look out upon the street, anC
the owners will also have an uptown
office.

BOSTON MAN ON BOUNTY
GriIIs the State ON Its Predatory
Animal Reward.

GriIIs the State ON Its Predatory
Animal Reward.
Occur d'Alene, Idaho, jan, 16, 1907.
Editor Press:-I notice In your
paper the mention of bounty to be
paid for hides of predatory animals
of the large sum of 50.
Those responsible for this offer do
not give hunters credit for having
good sense. Who will turn in wolf
skin worth SIS for 81, or a lynx
worth IS to IS for the bounty price.
1t is worth their bounty to chase after
the Warden and swear to the voucher.
But this is not a bounty. 1t is
simply a dicker for pelts at less than
half price, which is proven by the fact
that they will be refused when not
prime after April /. or when in poor
condition. It's the pelts for gain.
not good viii. for the state to be rid
of these animals. that was the upper
most thought in making that offer.
AS to the state getting "a good
revenue as we'll" they surely would
II it worked as planned; but alas.
sad as it is, hunters no longer do
missionary work for the state.
As a state or county that displays
so stingy a spirit as the offer made
deserves the loss that It does get OF
valuable game by these dest- uctive
pests, until they learn. perhaps when
it is too late, that they should COM
pensate hunters to rid the country OF
them.
Did you ever stop to think that
every day one of these predatory ami
mails must have a quail, grouse

fool hen, pheasant, part
ridge, rabbit or fawn. 1t has to
live until it is killed and this is its
food. To ge. that destroyer, a hun
ter must work hard a day, perhaps
two or three or more, then skin the
animal in most particular fashion ac-
cording to orders, then begins the
fun, he starts on another hunt after
the game warden to get the bounty
only to fare as did the lynx itself, he
loses the hide also.
81 guess the state won't lose its
$4,000, neither will 1t find its good
revenue as well"
have killed several lynx this year
but did not seek the bounty" because
l heard l must spoil the hide by sur
rendering the ears.
l sold one carcass before even It
was skinned for IS and ] have an
other fine one that / would not take
SIS for, and yet they cost so much to
obtain that l would not consider the
expense covered at those prices.
The sooner the state gives a de-
cent bounty and let's the hunter keep
the hides IA hole could be punched in
ears to show bounty had once been
paid the sooner will these pests be
destroyed and the sooner will there
be more game. but with bounty max
ers acting as lynx themselves in
watching for the hunters'hard earned
hides SO the state may become a pelt
peddler. Well-nOt YET
THE above are sentiments also OF
some of our foremost marksmen with
whom / have talked on the matter
Yours respectfully,
