MANY COYOTES CAPTURED.
determination Of Coyotes and Wolves Ia
ttarney Peak Forest District.

IA'eFminats0n OF Coyotes and Wolves in
tarney Peak Forest District.
Figures recently compiled by the
Forest officers from the results OBJ
tanned by loantng traps to settlers on
the hsrney National Forest for the
purpose OF trapping predatory animals
indicate that very good success has
been obtained. For the past six
months Forest Officers of the Harney
National Forest have loaned out
to various settlers o07 No. 4 Newhouss
steel traps. Up to December let, Al
coyotes, 2 wolves, bobcats and S
skunks had been caught, aside from .
number of porcupines of which no
consideration was taken. This elbows
that for the coyotes alone there has
been one caught for every I've traps
used. Since the traps cost spproxi.
mstely 81 piece the cost for each
coyote has been approximately $500.
The most valuable catch, however, is
the two wolves. since it is known that
it takes from $1,000 to $3.50 worth Of
live stock each year to keep volt.
Only three traps have been lost and
as 1t Is planned to continue the loaning
OF traps. 1t is thot that the average cost
for extermtnatinR coyotes will not be
more than 81 90 piece. Traps will
last q number of years; and will no
doubt te used by the rsnchmen when
ever there is possibility OF making .
a catch

closely identified with the leaders of

A Boston Republican Paper Does
Not Think He is Fair Towards the
President.
Boston Record (Rep.)
The New York World is always
ways ready to find peg on which
to. hang condemnation of its pet
personal diversions. Col. Roosevelt,
but, discounting ingrained prejudice,
there is some sober and sound sig
nificance in a situation thus noted
by The World:
Another reason why the. Bull
Moose party is going to die may be
found in the fact that its leader is
the only man in America who in
these days of sorroW-and perplexity
is capable of assuming a bullying
and insoent tone towards the Pres
ident of the United States.
The United States is now almost
the, only great nation which is not
involved in the European horror.
Woodrow Wilson is the cheifl ex
ecitive officer Of this nation. He
