THE WOLF BOUNTY
(Petersburg Repor0


 The Territorial Senate has passed a bin placing a bounty on wolves ol ten dollars per head. The sentiment of the legislature appears to be near ly unanimous for this measure, and 1t should pass in the house and be- come 8 law.
 In the debate on the biil Senator Sulzer, who obtained his Information on the subject through Interviewing numerous competent authorities, plac ed the value of deer destroyed by dogs at $260.000 per annum on the Prince Of Wales Island alone The number of wolves on this island he declares to be conservatively estt mated at a thousand.
 "Wc know that the wolves live on the deer" said the Senator "and have talked the matter over very thoroughly with many prospectors, miner. fishermen and woodsmeni and they all agree that a wolf will destroy at least one deer a week fl we place the average deer at fifty pounds. and value the meat at ten cents pound we have value of five dollars for each deer For the year, granting wolf would kill fifty-two deer it would be total value of S26O worth of meat that each wolf would destroy every year"
 If actual conditions are in any de- gree such as brought out in discus. sion of the bin. It's enactment will be a commendable piece of legislation and whatever funds become available and are used in payment of wolf bounties, will prove silt edge invest ment for the Territory.
 Aside from the protection afford ed to deer. the extermination or less ening of the wolf herds would make more feasible the propagation of rein deer on the islands of Southeastern Alaska
 Governor Strong. in his two annual reports to the Secretary of the Inter for. made the excellent recommends, tion "that white men. settlers in AL aska. be permitted to obtain herds of heiudeer under the same rules and conditions that Eskimosn missions and Laps are now supplied
 The wisdom and justice of this rec concentration win some day be heed ed. When it is. the raising of rein deer mi this section as in many oth- CT parts of the Territory gives prom ise of quickly passing the experiment tai stage and becoming thriving in- dustry.
