TEMPERANCE ON PART OF
ELECTRICITY MEMBERS.
CONFERENCE REFUSED
MILLS SUGGESTS CONSOLIDATION
OF THE TWO DEPARTMENTS
TO SAVE CITY
MONEY.

BY a vote of six to two. the Coun-
Gil Committee on Water last night
enabled paper from the Committee
on Electricity asking for confer
ence on the question as to how the
water pumping plant and municipal
electric plant are being operated.
Captain Morgan r. Mills, the chair
man. led off with the statement that
ignorance OF the Electricity Commit
tee was thoroughly manifest when 4.
attempted to draw up report cffti-
cising the Water Department. and he
was positive the committee had gone
far beyond Its province.
IF the Electricity Committee
wants to show its good faith he said,
let ii agree to a consolidation OF
the TWO departments and save the
city something like $4,000 or $50, 00e.
Mr.. Adams said he had heard that
the sub committee OF the Electricity
Com mittee had gone up there ana
went off half cooked" and so far
as he knew they might have gotten
their information from some soreheac
who knew about as little as the COM
mitteemen themselves.
Denounced As Unfair.
ter Department, interjected the state
ment that there were no differences
between him and Mr.. Trarord, super
intendent of the electrical plant. who.
1t developed. had not been consulted
by the committeeman on their trip Of
inspection.
Captain Mills denounced the action
of the other committee as unfair and
unwarranted.
Mr.. Davis quoted some figures to
show that the water pumping station
was amply able to take care OF itself
except in emergency times, such as
have prevailed lately.
Mr.. Boschen. while admitting that
the action of the other committee ap-
peared ridiculous, thought it only fair
and just that a conference should be
granted. so that those in the dark
might be shown the light However,
he was voted down.
Those comprising the special COM
mittee that drew up the report which
caused the storm were Messrs. c. c.
Jones. S. r. Cowardin and {. A. Sea-
ton.

There is nothing new about the
idea of using sage for restoring the
color of the hair. Our great-grand-
mothers kept their locks soft, dark
and glossy by using a "sage tea"
Whenever their hair fell out or took
on dull, faded or streaked appear
ance they made a brew of sage leaves
and applied it to their hair, with
wonderfully beneficial effect. &:
Nowadays we don't have to resort
to old-time, tiresome methods of
gathering the herbs and making the
tea. This is done by skillful chem
lists better than we could do it our
selves, and all we have to do is to
call for the ready-made product. Wy

DRIVE 10000 ELK
Wyoming Herds to Be Moved to
the Big Horn Mountains
Guarded by Troops.
GIGANTIC TASK is CUT OUT
Animals So Numerous in Western
Part of State That Cattle Are
Robbed of Forage.

Ten thousand head Of wild elk trek
king across the state of Wyoming and
guarded and guided by United States
cavalry and many cowboys, ranchmen
and sheepherders is the unique spec
tacle which will be seen some time
between now and winter If the plans
of the officials who have the project In
charge are carried out.
The elk are at present in the Jack
son Hole country, in the extreme wesc
ern part of the state. 1t is the inten'
ton Of the officials to remove them TO
the Big Horn mountains just west OF
Sheridan and in the extreme northern
portion of the state.
The animals have increased so rapid
" that the Jackson Hole country is
fairly overrun with them. 1t is esti-
mated that fully 5000 head Of elk
winter every year in the Hole, and
they simply eat the ranchmen out Of
house and home. They are protected
by the state and except for a few days
in the fall the killing Of an elk is
serious offense. AS a result the elk
herd has now become a menace, and its
numbers are increasing by leaps and
bounds. The elk have seemed to real
ize that they are safe and have become
so tame that they are not frightened
at the presence of a man.
In the winter, when the range is
covered with snow, the elk invade the
ranchers' haystacks and eat every
straw. Fences are not of the least
protection against them. as they go
- hot nd nc
though they We're birds.
PROVE MENACE TO RANCHERS.
The elk herd has finally become so
great a menace that the entire western
portion of the state took up arms In
an effort to save the ranches and
farms as well as the sheep and cattle,
as the elk threatened to simply strip
the range of forage and leave the do
mesdcated animals to die of starvation.
The national government was APP
pealed to and at the last session of
congress appropriated $4,000 for the
care and preservation of the elk In
Wyoming. But this amount is simply
a drop in the bucket, and 1t is realized
by the state officials that the great
herd must be made self supporting If
IT is to remain in existence.
In northern Wyoming are the Big
Horn mountains, stretching 100 miles
or more from north to south. The
Big Horns are the most mountain
GUS" mountains in the northwest-a
succession of high peaks and deep
ravines, and all heavily wooded. 1t is
an ideal country for elk and other big
game. The great elk herd from Jack
son Hole would scatter and lose itself
once it were transplanted to the Big
Horn mountains. And there would be
sufficient provender to furnish food
throughout the winter without the
least assistance from the state or 9TH
ers.
Under these conditions the state Of
hcials have determined to move a big
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1911-08-19

portion Of the herd from the Hole over
to the Big Horn country. But to make
the transfer by railroad is out of the
question because of the tremendous ex-
pense, so it was determined to drive
the elk as though they were cattle.
The United States government will
be asked to permit 1000 cavalrymen
from Fort Russell, at Cheyenne, and
Fort Mckenzie, at Sheridan, to take
part in the great drive, and to this
large force will be added 1000 cow
boys, ranchmen, sheep herders and 9TH
ers. a total force of 1000 mounted
men. The great trek" will not take
place until late fall or early winter.
The elk have become so accustomed
to mounted men that they no longer
fear a man on a horse, and this fact
viii be taken advantage Of during the
drive. The animals will be handled as
is a herd of cattle. except that instead
of a cowboy now and then the mount
ed men around the elk will be as
thick as flies. At night they win be
herded, just as the cattle are.
The expense of the great drive will
be shared by the state and the nation
al government. the latter to the extent
OF the $4,000 appropriated at the last
session OF congress
The west has often seen q herd of
10000 cattle streaming along over the
prairie, but probably no country ever
saw that many elk being driven clear
across big state. -e,-r.g..4.
