The Scalp Bounty.

Editor Courier-In answer to j.
ii. Robertson. in last weeks Observer.
appear before you humbly beg
ging pardon for space, because Of
the fact my friend Robertson does
not read the papers, as closely as he
might, especially the Observer.
From Friend Roberson's remarks I
CLEAN, 1t does not appear to be alto
gether against the principal of offer
ing a bounty that objections are or
cred by the negative but from parsi-
mony and greed, as Mr.. R. says 1t
(the bounty will come from the
money in the treasury and out of
the taxpayers pockets. | would ask
where else would you expect 1t to
come from? This appeal is as finn
sy as John d. Rockerfeller's plain
tive cries against a tax on Standard
Oil stock. | am a taxpayer also and
have been all my life, but what pro-
portion of said tax money for boun-
ties would l or Mr.. Robertson Pay?
Let us see.
The state levies a tax on some
thing like s1,50O,O00,O00; Josephine
county pays on SS,212,762. Mr..
Robinson AMI l will pay taxes on say
$1,000 each. That would be our pro-
portional part on a bounty, on a
l mill tax or one-tenth of cent?
infiinitesimally small, only a few
cents at the outside figures. A levy
of 1-10th of one mill on the dollar
would be sufficient. Then why this
hue and cry about the poor taXpay-
ers' money going to pay a small
bounty on dangerous wild animals?
But Mr.. R. says they are not dan
gerous. This is another erroneous
conclusion. Mr.. R. says there are
none of us but what would take a
pop at every wild animal we see
every chance we get, no not one"
This conclusion is also erroneous.
Ask the old man Reynolds living at
Waldo II he did not weaken some
few years ago while hunting on the
headwaters OF Rough and Ready,
Southern Josephine county, when a
huge silver tip grizzly came out OF
the thicket a few yards from him
on the upper side hill and looked
down on him with an unearthly
growl, which he told me was one
time, although on horseback with a
loaded Winchester, he did not dare
take a pop at him, for this bold mon
arch of the woods stood his ground
and II crippled would have bourne
down on the hunter like an ava
lanche, and 1t would have been the
last Of Mr.. Reynolds; but Mr.. Rey-
nolds' pony carried him out OF dan
ger quicker than tell it. Every
one knows Mr.. Reynolds to have
been brave man, an old pioneer OF
of the Western country. There are
but few silver tips left, but there
are as many cinnamon bear, which
some hunters tell US are as danger
ous to cope with as the grizzly.
Friend Robertson would take a poI
at any of 'em like the Irishman, who
was out hunting and became weary
and lay down on log and was doz
ing when all at once a wild cry OF
scream near him suddenly disturbed
his peaceful slumber. 1t was such
scream, not unlike that OF wo'
man, that makes the hair stand on

END and cold chills run through
every nerve in the body. "The
brave hunter. this son of Hibernia,
looking back on his trail saw dis
tinctly with his own eyes. the huge
mountain lion on his track advanc-
Ing toward him. then he exclaimed.
1T be tracks you are looking for Is
1t? Byfaith, then will step you
Ioff few." said Paddy.
The assertion that wild animals
would become more numerous In
counties where the bounty system
is in vogue" as expressed, is so silly
then some, 1t makes me laugh. The
admission of Mr. r.. in his peortion
or PHILIPPE" that many men and
boys would spend their time hunting
wild animals and thus not be able
to pay their store bills and their
lawyers fees, is an admission that
wild animals would be hunted for,
but lurking fear that the store
keeper (Mr. Robertson being one)
might lose by such a law. This
plea does not appeal to lawyers, doc
tors, or hod carriers or to me.
Such argument is in the nature Of
avoidance and confession" The
facts are avoided and truth con-
fessed. 1t is 16 to l proposition
argument. This logic would be
classed in the vicious circle" which
is begging the question, "petitio prin-
cipi," and resolves itself into a false
supposition Of '1gnoranto elenchi"
for example in this syllogism which
is fair comparison Of such logic.
Everything from which evil comes
is bad" "(Major Premises.) Evil
comes from the enforcement Of the
law" (Minor Premises.) Therefore
the enforcement of the law is bad.
| (conclusion.) The Hindoo Of India
might make hilarious noises when
the sun was in the eclipse. What
of that? Many Americans also
thought the world was coming to an
end. Also some people cut all
kinds of didos, back hand somer-
saults, acrobatic gymnastics, gri-
maces, and facial contortions If they
even think, much less know that
law may effect their pocket book a
few cents. The Hindoo gives the
world the Bramah religion, one OF
the most enlightened, the precept
and morals thanwhich perhaps none
others excel.
My worthy opponent gives me
credit for having debated the ques-
tion Resolved, That the hope Of re-
ward Is a greater incentive to crime
than the fear of punishment, and
having probably won. IL would GER
tainly be much more difficult to win
such question than the one we are
debating, to-wit: That the hope
of reward Is an incentive for hunters
to hunt or kill dangerous wild ami
mails; and that the killing of wild
animals will preserve the game and
protect the domestic animals; such
as sheep, hogs. goats and poultry
II am told by farmers in Josephine
County that there is loss Of one
third of hogs and greater loss o.
goats and sheep that run on thu
range without herders in thi
county. That means loss of man!
thousands of dollars per annum t
the stockraisers in Josephine Count,
and the only means to avoid such
loss is to offer a reasonable bount,
on the worst OF the wild beasts
The ranchers and hunters will hav
money to pay their store bills an
save great losses to the stockraiseI
Therefore 1t is the only plausible an
reasonable system to adopt. Let
give It a trial. Question? Au Re
