the top of one mountain to a bronze plate in a
rock some six or eight miles away.
After resting day in camp we started for
the hunting ground with Thompson and had
gone only couple of miles when we came to
some fresh elk tracks, which we followed eau
tiously for some time, until we could see far
below us in a park Ga small clearing with long
grass, on which elk fond of feeding) small

an exciting crawl hands and knees we found
ourselves within about hundred yards and I'M

shot for the near shoulder, while my guide shot
the next largest; both bulls dropped but mine

rear of the herd as best he could with broken
shoulder and bullet in his lungs. He was going
slowly and easy to follow and another shot some
500 yards further on in very dense timber, ended
his rowing career. The remainder of that day
was spent in skinning and cutting up the meat
and hanging it high above the ground, out of
reach of prOwlng animals at night. For dinner
that evening we had elk's liver and steak and
quite celebration early success. Pack
ing the meat, hides and heads back to camp con-

sentiment with the majority to
enforce the law against the sale
of liquor.
The trouble we find with the
Prohibs, is that they accept the
views Of Prohibitionists only and
this, in spite of the official rec
ords to the contrary. Take our
local conditions, liquor is freely
handled all over the county; in
this town there have been a few
arrests and convictions, but
where there are no active police
the receipts at the various sta,
tions show large quantities OF
liquor consumed. Perhaps some
may believe this liquor is used
for bathing purposes, we do not.

They used about 500 lbs. at time and
as soon as it was thoroughly mixed, put
it back into the same sacks that the raw
