In all the recent session OF the
South Dakota legislature, not a
single railroad lobbyist appeared at
the state house. And in the same
connection 1T should be stated that
there was virtually no anti-railroad
legislation at this session. Therefore
it appears that there is no reason
why the railroads should have spent
any money in an effort to influence
legislation.
Indeed lobbying is OF doubtful
value any longer. The opposition
Of any particular interest to any par
ticular measure, III shown by the
presence and activity of a paid rep
resentatiye, is more likely to develop
sentiment for the measure than
against it.
In the future, interested parties
will no doubt follow the better plan

a statement of their case and then

ne saw the buck go down on his knees
among the elder bushes.
Snatching his knife from his belt
Charley ran forward toward the buck,
but. before he could strike, the buck
leaped away for several yards and
then again went 20 his knees. The
hunter followed, but again. for the
second time and for the third time. the
buck escaped the knife.
Determined 10 get his game Charley
started on another dash when, be-
hold. there came to his side a dos,
the wardens hound. painting and
happy and with his jaws and should
eTs all smeared with blood. And then
Charley knew that the dog had found
the doe and that the dog belonged
to a game warden and that the game
warden represented the law which
said that a $50 fine should be paid for
each deer shot out Of season.
That hound had an extraordinary
thing happen TO him then. The man
whom he had followed from camp
showed him every consideration. He
took from his pocket a handkerchief
filled IL with snow. and straightway
cleaned all of the blood from his jaws
and shoulders. And then the man
carefully led him back along the path
that led TO camp.
camp. Jackson had returned from his
accommodating trip toward the north.
The tent was up and a cheerful fire
sent its smoke playing among the
branches Of the sentinel pine. The
aroma of frying bacon hung low over
the wild-land trail.
And then the hunters all worked
together in preparation for the night
and as they worked they cOnversed,
and the conversation was this:
Game warden-''Well boys, how did
you find things?"
Charley WOOlman-"I guess we
might stay here a few days anyway.

at the place the two members of the

and argued thus: Now friend. this

we are fixing the camp one OF you

This plan was agreed upon and so
Charley WoOlman started south and
Will Jackson started north. Now Ii
so happened that while he rested
Charley had laid his shotgun down by
the side Of log and when the others
arrived Alex. Smith had laid his rifle
down by the shotgun. Thus it was

Holding his course due south by
the compass Charley secuted along
the river bank. He crossed one rum
way, beaten smooth by the deer pass

fore he had gone more than half a
mile from the camp he came to the
second runway. BY this time he was
satisfied that the game warden had

In that moment of best intentions
the wary hunters eye caught the Wis

bushes not more than 125 yards away
In a flash ali the weeks Of expectant
planning were crystalized into action.
Up went the rifle and the bark Of it
broke savagely on the peace of the
woods.
But quick as the rifle spit it's death
dealing flame il was not so quick as
a stately buck which leaped to the
protection Of the feeding doe. When
the sudden apparition Of the buck
met his gaze the hunter threw the
empty shell from the gun and pulled
the trigger again. only the snap OF
the trigger broke the stiffness. once
more and then again Charley pumped
the gun and pulled the trigger. and

MUzzLE ORDINANCE
STILL IN EFFECT

The dog muzzling ordinance is still
in effect. Both Sheriff Harris and
Constable McMurtrey announcey this
morning that all dogs found without
muzzles would be Immediately killed.
During Rodeo week the people grew
a little slack and allowed their dogs
to run at large without muzzles. The
menace from rabies is just as great
as ever.
And now the officers are determined
to see that the dog muzzling ordinance
Is strictly enforced. The board OF
county commissioners at their recent
session notified the officers that the
dog muzzling ordinance would stand
until all danger from the mad coyotes
had passed and that they must see
that the order to kill all unmuzzled
dogs must be enforced.
That the menace from rabies is
spreading is shown by the following

PLACER YIELD IS
BIG FROM Linn

Word comes that Pedro Orbe is tax
ing out good values from the Linn
placers nineteen miles north Of Car.
lin on branch of Maggie creek.
The water over there Is very short
and all the supply they have comes
from 27-foot well. In fact the gravel
is hauled to the well contrary to the
usual practice OF piping water to the
mines.
1t is a mistake to call the material
being worked gravel. 1t is the disinte-
grating ledge matter or quartz. There
Is no wash gravel. The side of the
mountain below the ledge is shoveled
up for depth of about three feet
and hauled to the well a quarter of
mile away. Ten loads day are be-
ing worked The ledge Is also being
opened up. In one place a shaft is
down 200 feet, and at another 40.
Joe Linn, a cowboy working for the
Dumphy estate, discovered these plac.
ers four years ago. Twelve miles out
from Carlin on Maggie creek is the
Simonds house. Some one had shown
Linn how to pan gravel and he began
TO test the ground at the Simonds
place and found a color. He followed
up a branch creek for seven miles get
ting colors all the way. His discov.
cry is now the Linn district This is
also the district in which the Big Six
gold mine is located. Linn sold his
interest in the placers for a hundred
dollars.
The whole of that seven miles of
creek that Linn prospected has been
located by c. y. De Lay and he ex-
poets to install dredger to work the
ground.
Joe Linn Is also the man who dis.
covered the famous Buckhorn mine
over in Eureka county. He sold his
mine this time to George Wingfield
for twelve thousand dollars and he al.
so received eight thousand dollars for
the Buckhorn townsite.
LiRn invested this money, or most
of 1t, in cattle inch near Visalla,
California, and put his sister on it.
He is still punching cattle UP in this
country.

FIRE DESTROYS
HARDESTY RESIDENCE

About twenty minutes to twelve this
forenoon fire was discovered in the
residence of George w. Hardesty and
in fifteen minutes the building and all
its contents were entirely destroyed.
The origin is not known but it was
probably due to a defective fiue in
the kitchen. The fire was we'll under
way when discovered and the building
was doomed to destruction before the
arrival of the fire department. The
adjoining residence belonging to Depu-
ty Assessor VIM. Willis was badly
scorched and narrowly escaped de-
strucuon. The entire absence of wind
saved it.
There was some delay in getting
water into action by hose cart No. l..
A spray nozzle was first attached but
1t refused to work. The regular noz-
zle was then attached and after that
good work was done.
While the fire was consuming the
building there were many comments
on the supposed lack of water press
ure, for it did seem that the pressure
was light. In order to properly place
the cause an Independent reporter in
terviewed Justice of the Peace H. N.
Castle who had charge of hose cart
No. 2. The judge said that the press
ure was good when his hose was at
tached and that the hose was IN per.
feet condition. Shortly after the wat
er was turned on, however, a small
pebble which evidently came through
the pipe lodged in the nozzle. This
had to be removed before further eff
fective work could be done.
Chief Vaulkenburg said that when
he first arrived with hose cart No.
he attached the spray nozzle hoping
to get inside with 1t. This nozzle
wouldn't work and 1t had to be replac.
ed by the regular one which necessi.
tated delay. He said that there was
never a chance to save the Hardesty
building and that the fire boys did well
to save the adjoining buildings.
There was no one In the building
when the FIRE started, but Mr.. and
Mrs. H. C. Hardesty of Lovelock were
on the front porch. George. Hardesty
was in the street in front of the build.
ing. None of them saw the blaze In
the rear until their attention was di.
rected to It, and it was so far adyanc.
ed then that they did not attempt TO
enter the house to save personal eff.
fects.
There was no insurance on the build.
ing and the loss was complete. Not a
single item was saved. The building
and contents were valued at about $4,.
600. The Willis residence was dam.
aged to the extent Of several hundred
dollars.
Again the necessity of adequate fire
protection Is emphasized. An auto
chemical engine 10 needed and needed
badly. The fire boys did noble work
and saved at least two buildings ,-op,
destruction, those Of VIM. Willis and
George Anderson. And had the lat
ter caught fire Il is probable that the
entire block would have been wiped
