Tough times for timber wolves are
looming up in the future The latest
scheme for Kidding the White River cat

appears 10 De the best notion yet. says
the Denver Republican.
When 1t comes TO trapping or shooting
wolves and locating their dens, the Indi-
an knows what a white man would never
ind out. so now the plan is 20 invites the
Utes up from the reservation In the
southern part OF the State and their
cousins from over in Utah and turn them
loose To start a wolf massacre In RIO
Blanco and Garfield counties.
The idea originated with Charles T,
Llmburg. OF Leadvine. a prominent cat
tleman and banker He has taken the
matter up with the Office of the State
game and fish commissioners. where the
possibilities OF his suggestion were recog-
uized at once. Various schemes have
been devised Of getting rid OF the big
gray wolves which slaughter so many
yearliug steers IN the White River coun-
try every summer and so many deer in
the winter.
The wolves OF the White River timber
country are exceptionally large and
fierce. A head Of one OF them shows
them TO have heavy. capacious Jaws and
long. keen teeth. which look as II they
could snap a dogs backbone in with a
single crunch. It looks as If it were UP

ANNEXATION IS
Theme OF Meeting
West BerkeIeyans Hear Argn-
ments Against the Union OF
Berkeley and Oakland

BERKELEY. Sept. 2.-Anti-annexa-
tionists gathered in West Berkeley to-
night at two meetings to argue to resi-
posed union with Oakland. A precinct
meeting was held in the home of !. j.
Truman in Hopkins street and larger
gathering was held in Fraternity hall
in University avenue.
Max Thelen at Fraternity hall denied
that the present annexation plan was
virtually consolidation: He said:
'sThe term consolidation as applied
to the conditions here in Alameda
county, means the union of city govern
ment with county government IN such
a way. that there will be only one set
of officials and only one tax to be
paid. But if the proposition now be-
fore the citizens of Berkeley should
carry, the city of Berkeley would have
been swallowed by the city of Oakland.
while we would be no nearer to city
and county government. We would
continue to have one set of othcials
for county government and another set
of officials for the city government OF
Oakland. We would continue TO pay
our county taxes and should also have
to pay an Oakland city tax that would
be higher than the Berkeley city tax.
The present proposition is simply a
question as to whether the city OF
Berkeley shall annex itself to the city
of Oakland and become ward of that
city. We are asked to make an abso-
Lutte and unconditional surrender, with
out the right of asking or securing
even a single term for our capitula-
ton
EARL II. Webb and Charles H. Spear
also spoke against the union of Berke-
ley and Oakland. A letter was read
from Commissioner Christian Hof OF
this city, in which he said that as a
dollar and cents proposition Berkeley
should vote TO maintain its identity.
The chamber of commerce and the
Berkeley Women's Christian Temper
ance Union last night passed resolu-
tions against annexation.
