DID THE RAcC0oN REAsoN7
Instance In Idaho That Showed at
Least the Possession of Much
Saaacity.

AS another bit of evidence in tho
never ending discussion concerning
the ability of the lower animals to
exercise the power Of reason read
er sends this amusing little obscrva-
ton, says the Youths Companion II
We were on stage journey from
Lewiston, Idaho, to Grangeyille,
idaho, distance of seventy m:lcs.
The stage stopped for noon at the
Fountain house, halfway between
the two towns. A large raccoon was
chained by the collar to post il the
front yard. After luncheon fine
driver of the stage gathered up a
plate of food from the table and car
ried it out to where the animal was
chained. He set the plate down inst
out of reach Of the raccoon's front
paws. The animal strained and
reached, but could not cover the dis
lance.
One of the passengers said "Why
do you not place it within his
reach"
"Hc can reach it," the driver re-
piled.
He can't unless you move the
plate nearer"
"Wait and see," said the driver.
The raccoon had by this time Civ
en- up trying to reach the food and
sat whining. He seemed to pom
der over the problem for a few 10
ments, then stretched his chain to
its fullest extent, turned around,
reached out with his hind foot. drag
ged the plate toward him, reversed
the process, grasped it in his froat
paws and proceeded to enjoy his dia-
ner, much to the amusement Of tho
onlookers and the discontinue Of
the man, who was sure he could rot
accomplish the task.

Register and Receiver,

Sirs:
Chief of Field Division Adelbert

This office has held in number of
cases that Section 6, of the act OF
May go. 1908 (36 Stats, 46o), in
accordance with the provisions OF
which proclamation was issued
August 10. 1909, opening the coded
portion of the Standing Rock and
Cheyenne Indian Reservations to
entry. created a trust fund for the
benefit of the Indians and that in
view thereof the right of settlers to
the free use OF timber under the
provisions of the acts of June 3,
1873, and March 3. 1891. did not
extend to said coded lands. In view
of the fact that there may be mis-
understanding on the part OF the
settlers in your district as to the
right to take timber from the coded
portion of the Standing Rock and
Cheyenne Indian Reservations you
are hereby directed to give the
holding of this Office on this class
OF cases such publicity as you con-
slider the matter deserves.
