WEST GALLATIN
GAME PRESERVE

For the purpose of making the art
of hunting in the West Gallatin Ba-
sin a real sport. and to protect the
game of that region from ruthless
slaughter, Il move has been started by
local slmrtsmen, backed up by the
forestry and game officials and resi-
dents Of the county. looking to the
creation by The state legislature Of 4
state game preserve in that territory
to include the three or four outlets
from the park OH its northern and
western boundaries. says the Three
Forks Herald. The matter was TAX
Ell up last year. the recommendation
going to Washington that this ter
ritOry, comprising about $4,000
acres, be set off rs Il national game
preserve. After consideration of the
matter the supporters of the PROPOSE
ton were advised to present it to the
state legislature, rs Il state game pre-
serve would not interfere with any
other activity or industry, while
national reserve would exclude ev-
erything.
To Prevent Slaughter OF Elk.
The reasons for such Il move are
that at present the game, which sum-
mers in the Yellowstone park and es-
capes to it's winter range, West Gal
latin Basin. only through narrow
passes. Around these every year
there are clustered from ~ to BOO or
more hunters. waiting for the game
to cross the line and become subjects
to their bullets. 1t is said that if the
boundaries are extended nOrthward
and westward for about three miles
in this vicinity, the game would have
an opportunity to escape through
heavy timber. aud thus scatter all
through the region. At present the
outlets are IN the open and great
herds of the animals come out near
the close of the season, only to he
surrounded and slaughtered by the
great number of hunters (?) who have
been waiting for that very condition
| for days or weeks.
Butchered by Hundreds.
The excitement of the chase is re-
moved and hunting, instead Of Il skill
| full art, becomes IA mere butchery.
| II few weeks ago such Il conflict Oc-
cured. Five hundred elk came over
the line at an early hour and We're i'm
mediately fallen upon by nearly an
equal number of hunters. in the open
territory where escape for the elk was
impossible and where the joys CT
hunting were totally absent.
The same occurrence is the usual
thing ut the close Of the season and
the measure proposed would remove
this from the realms Of possibility.
At the same time the region would
be made more attractive to hunters
and spOrtsmen from outside the
state. 1t IS conceded everywhere that
the West Gallatin Basin offers the
best possibilities in the hunting line
in the state and none Of the support
ers of the new move wish to see this
noble sport cheapened by the tactics
Of butchery.
Very True.
What is that which nobody wants
and which nobody likes to lose? A

country in search Of opportunity has had
a more remarkable and picturesque ca
reer than has been that of Richard G.
Kerens. From driving a mail wagon in
the raw west of years ago to holding tho
post Of ambassador to the most ariSto-
cratic court Of Europe is pretty good
climb, though to those who know Mr..
Kerens it doesn't seem so remarkable.
They would tell you that '.Dick' Kerens
was bound to make brilliant success.
The late Senator Stephen B. Elkins,
when he was out in New Mexico laying
the foundation of his fortune after the
close of the civil war. became acquainted
with Mr.. Eerens. He took strong lk-
ing to the young Irishman. and there
grew up between them a warm personal
friendship There was nothing remark
able in this. for everybody liked Dick"
kerens. He had bright, CHEEKY way
with him that won him friends wherever
he went. He was u typical Irish blond,
with a fresh complexion and high color,
slightly curling hair and the bluest Of
blue eyes.
But the most attractive thing about him
was his smile, which was. it has been
said, as sunny May morning. He
was well built. though of medium height.
and he was perfectly CAPABLE of doing
little more than his share of hard work.
Mr.. Elkins. only year older than Ncr
ems. though Of Importance in territorial
affairs. liked the earnest yet good-na-
tUred way that young EerenS went about
things, and soon came to have the ut
most confidence in his character and abl-
ity: Their friendship was further cement
ed by their common admiration for James
G.. Blaine. Later When they both attend
ed republican national conventions there
were no more enthusiastic Blaine men
than Elkins and kerens.
AS a lad in Iowa kerenS had found
employment that gave him some practical
knowledge of the business of transpOrta-
ton. He went farther west in his early
manhood, after he had fought through
the war on the Union side, with the idsa
OF turning this to account, and succeed
ing in getting a government contract, he
established mail route in the far south
west. At times he drove the horses him
self. He prospered at this business, and
after a while branched out into other
lines. His association with Mr. ElkinS
led to several business opportunities;
Shrewd investments in real estate and
mining ventures soon started him on the
road to wealth. and sound Judgment and
application converted a modest compe-
tence into an imposing fortune. For al
though he possesses in a marked degree

ways has been, q cool and clear-headed
man of business.

efforts were made to connect Mr.. Kerens
In some way with transactions by which

frauded. but the most diligent inquiry
failed to disclose anything against him.

concern. In way, 1T may be said to be
disposition to submerge the personality
in the business interest with which it is
associated, and something of this sort
seems to have happened in Mr.. MuIrys
case. His personality, in the banking
world appears to be merged in and CON
cealed by the great institution of which
he is the head and the guiding spirit.
Mr.. Mulry is we'll known, however, in
Catholic benevolent circles and among
workers in charitable lines, for his in
terest I'm philanthropic work is intense
and he has devoted much of his time
and means to it. He has not always
been able to prevent his left hand from
knowing what his right hand is doing
in the matter of benevoences. though
it is suspected that he has succeeded in
this to q considerable extent. 1t is ur-
derstood that he was one OF the largest
contributors to the fund that was raised
to pay off the $SG0,GtO mortgage on st.
Patrck's Cathedral in New York. thus
making the recent conservation of the
cathedral possible.
MIR. Mulry Is man OF medium height
and stocky build. with dark hair and
eyes, and heavy black beard. He is
very quiet and unaSsuming III manner,
and though grave and serious in de-
meanor. is not in the least an austere
man. In politics he is democrat, ana
he is affiliated with the local democra-
tic organization Of New York city, with
which he is very popular. Mr.. Mulry
could have had any office for which the
New York city democracy could have
named him but he is averSe to holding
public Office. and over and over again
he has declined nominations and APP
pointments. His recommendation or III
dorsement of a candidate is known to
have great weight.
Mr. MurV is a man who takes broad
views OF affairs, and subordinates per-
sonal Or minor considerations to those of
general nature. During the troublous
financial times Of Cleveland'S second ad
minstration. when the endless chain >
was draining the United States Treasury
of gold, Mr.. Mulry displayed this quail
ity Of his mind in a notable way. TO
restore the gold reserve in the Treasury.
Mr.. Cleveland resorted to an issue of
some $50, 100000 of bonds. which We're
taken by New York bankers. The gold
thus obtained was quickly drained from
the Treasury, and a second bond issue
was decided upon by the administration.
The negotiations for the floating OF this
second issue of bonds in New York re-
suited In some friction, and some Of the
bankers were rather disposed to hold
aloof conference Of New York bank
ers was called to consider the matter
and Mr.. Mulry was one of those who
participated. When the discussion had
revealed that there was something of an
undercurrent OF adverse sentiment Mr..
Mulry said:
Gentlemen, this is a matter in which
the credit and the honor Of our. govern
ment are concerned. 1t is our patriotic
duty to assist in any way that we can,
and no questions Of personal feeling
ought to stand in the way of our doing
so.''
The view advanced by Mr.. Mulry be-
came that OF the conference, and the
second issue was taken up.

IL one should make list OF the leading

day he would find among the foremost a
Eoodly number OF Irish birth or descent.
1t would be the same in the field of law
or finance. OF politics or diplomacy, of
education or religion. Leading positions
In each of these fields are held by Irish
men. At the head of some of the greatest
Industries of the United States stand men
Of the Celtic race. Irishmen have planned
or executed some of the greatest con-
structive work that has been achieves in
this country In the last quarter OF a cen-
tury. most notably in the development of
railroads and other means of communica-
ton. But not merely in the church or in
practical affairs have the Irish risen to
eminence in this country. One will find
them among those who have won fame
IN literature. music and the fine arts.
The man who holds the highest judicial
position in this country. Edward Doug
lass White, Chief Justice OF the United
States, OF Irish descent Associate
Justice Joseph Mckenna is also of Irish
lineage. John Thomas McDonough, for
nIerly chief judge Of the Philippine Is
lands, was born in Birdhill. Ireland, and
anne to this country when he was seven
years Of age. For many years he has
practiced law at Albany. n. Y. He was
ielesate at large to the New York state
constitutional convention In 1894, and was
aiected secretary OF state in New York
1898 on the ticket headed by Theodore
Roosevelt. and he and Col. Roosevelt be-
anne warm personal friends as the re-
suit of their association in the state gov
srnment Col Roosevelt had formed a
very high opinion of Judge McDonough's
ability as jurist. and when the oppor-
unity came four years later he named
