WOLVES on THE INCREASE.
Reno County Pays for More ScaIps as
the Years Go By

Hutchinson Kan, Jan. 16.-Reno
county has paid bounty upon nine
hundred and twenty-oiie coyotes killed
in the county during the last three
years. Contrary to the popular belief
the figures show that in spite of the
fact that the county is becoming more
thickly settled, the coyotes are in
creasing in numbers every year, or at
least more are being killed. The re-
port shows that PA were killed in
1906; 313 in 1907, and 394 in 1908
This increase is also borne out by
reports from the farmers and hunters
of the county who say that there are
more of the animals in the county
this year than ever before

New County Judge.

A surprise was sprung on the re-
sidents of Lincoln county this week
by the resignation of B. F. Swope
from his official position as County
Judge. Judge Swope has long
looked at Crook county as a prom
ising field for an attorney and with
the advent of the Oregon Trunk
Railroad, has purchased the prac-
tice of an attorney at Prineville and
with his family leaves for their new
home tomorrow. Judge Swope and
family have made many friends
while in Lincoln county who's best
wishes go with them to their new
home.
Charles H, Gardner, one of the
best known men in Lincoln county,
and staunch Republican, has been
appointed by the governor to fill
the vacancy caused by the resigna-
ton of Judge Swope. We predict
success to Judge Gardner.

TAX TO
YIELD BIG REVENUE

Washington, Nov. Incorporation
tax regulations are now complete and
ready for the printer. 1t has been a
great task to meet all the complexities
of the law, and expected attacks upon
it by the corporations. Latest esti-
mates indicate a net revenue from the
corporation tax of approximately $685.
600, 900 annually, and 10000 corpora
lions probably will have to pay the
tax.
In a far southwestern state it has
been found that not more than 10 per
cent. of many thousands of corpora
lions ever have actually done bust
ness. Improper registration in many
cases is expected, but the series of
penalties under the law will apply to
all. even to those who fail to get the
forms and regulations. The mailing
of the forms and blanks to every cor
poration listed in the various districts,
is not required by law, and is merely
to assist the corporations. Those not
registered should apply Immediately to
collectors.
All returns are required to be in the
collectors hands by March 1, and then
sent to the internal revenue bureau
here. where the tax will be assessed
and the tax-paying corporations noti-
fed by June 1, the tax to be paid by
July 1.

ALASKA NOW SECOND
AS A GOLD PRODUCER.

Washington, D. c., Nov. 81. - The
gold mines of the United States pro-
duced $94,56O,O0O worth of the pre-
cious metals during 1908, according to
the geological survey and the bureau
of mines, which co-operated in prepar-
ing an analysis of the reports from
private refineries and federal minis
and assay offices.
The total gold product was 4,574,340
ounces, net increase in value of $4,-
124,3OO. Colorado leads with a produc-
tive value of $22,S71 900; Alaska was
second with $19,S5S,SOO, and California
was third with $19,329,7OO.
Porto Rico was the smallest produc-
err, with total of only 5000.
The Philippines show an increase Of
s219,SOO to total of $2S4,500.
Some states of the union, usually
not associated in the public mind with
gold mining, make showing in the re.
ports. In fact, II of the states and
territories, not including Porto Rice
and the Philippines, are producing
gold. Texas produced $4,000 worth in
1908; New Hampshire mined $1,000
worth and somewhere in the vast graz
ing country of Wyoming was produced
81, 800.
The summary shows net decrease
of 4,073,90O ounces of silver, with a
value of $2,O5O,6OO. The total produc-
ton was 52,44O,S00 fine ounces. Mon
tana leads with production of 49,
356, 200 ounces.
AS in gold, the Philippines show
remarkable increase in silver produc-
ton. From 100 ounces in 1907 the pro-
duction of the islands jumped to 1900
in 1908.

BONDS FOR NORTHWESTERN
EXTENSION TO THIS COAST

Seattle, Nov. pa Chicago special
to the Post-Intelligencer says:
Reports from the West of extensive
surveys said to have been made in the
interest of the Chicago & Northwest
ern railway are taken as an indication
that the Northwestern is planning to
build another transcontinental line,
linking Chicago with the Pacific coast.
While the officials of the road will
not divulge their intentions, it is be-
lieved that they are quietly maturing
plans, following the example already
set by the Chicago, Milwaukee & St.
Paul and the Gould system in the Uni
ted States, and now being set by the
Grand Trunk and the Canadian North
ern in Canada.
The forthcoming issue of $4,000, 900
of new securities, which has been pre-.
dicted in New York for several weeks,
is to provide the funds for starting
work on the vast enterprise, according
to the reports. In this connection it is
recalled that the st. PauTs Puget
Sound extension, just completed, was
started with the stock issue of SIM
liar amount
Four principal surveys are said to
have been made. The present western
most extremity of the Northwestern
line is at Lander, Wyo., near the Idaho
state line, and there is another line al
most as far west to Belle Fourche,
S. D.
The Northwestern's through traffic
between Chicago and California is now
routed from Omaha west over the rails
of the Union Pacific, Southern Pacific
system, with which the Northwes tern
has a traffic arrangement. In order to
be able to compete with it's rivals for
Western traffic, it is asserted, the
Northwestern must eventually free it.
self from the necessity of depending
on any mere traffic agreement, and be-
fore many years are past secure it's
own rails to the Coast.
