DISCRIMINATING Mr.. COYOTE
Work of Trappers in This Dis.
trict Reported Successful BY
Foreman /. Fl. Clark

There is no doubt the work of the
trappers in eliminating coyotes and
diseased animals affected with tho
rabies is proving a success in this seq.
ton. according to reports of |. n
Clark, foreman of the Government
field force operating in Eureka. Ian.
der. northern portion of Nye. and
western portion of White Pine Coun.
ties, who was in Eureka this week.
He says since August l this wear
up to the present time, over $50 GOV.
otes and bob cats, including several
badgers. have been caught. Many
poisoned animals. that are not caught
have also been done away with in
this district. This number will ex.
coed the trapped animals caught in
many other localities. and some q
the best trappers and most active
agents employed in the west are
with the field force in this district.
Recently a rabid coyote visited En-.
reka, but at the first sound of the
alarm, several of Eureka's best shcts
turned out and made short work Of
the animal. Two weeks ago, a crit.
cism of the work of the trappers ap-
peared in the Reveille published at
Austin, that without going into de-
tail stated that many portions of that
county had not been visited by the
trappers, and in reply to which Mr..
Clark states that in the performance
of his duties he has covered since
July /. $40 miles and supervised
the work of % trappers. who have
set constantly from 80 to 125 traps
each; that it is almost impossible to
visit or spend a great deal of time in
every infested portion of this district
in the short period allotted to cover
ing the entire district. and that upon
reports to him of such infected por-
tions of this district he takes imme-
date action in placing a trapper in
that section, if feed for horses can
be obtained. As this would appear
to be practical nearly everywhere,
it is conceded the Government
agents and trappers have exercised
due diligence in the contamination
of their duties.

Unhappy Greece

With French troops %patrolling the
streets Of Athens; with British officers
commanding the Greek fleet, and
with Bulgarian troops holding a con-
siderable slice of Greek territory,
the lot of that country is n9ta happy
one. Many Greeks have signed an
appeal to the United States for help.
Of course we cannot give 1t; that
would be against III century-old
policy Of non-interference in Euro
pean affairs. 1t is rather expected
that King Constantine will be deposed
if not by his own people then by the
Allies or by the Central Empires
whichever may get the upper hand
In Greece. At Petrograd they are
already discussing King Constantine's
successor.

KILLED FOUR RABlO COYOTES
Joe Clifford Has Lost Seven Dogs and
Several Head of Cattle

Tonopah Times: Joe Clifford of
Stone Cabin, who came to Tonopah
Saturday on business, told a Times
reporter that rabid coyotes are ter
rorizing the people in his section and
are becoming as thick as jackrabbits.
Mr.. Clifford has killed four rabid
coyotes in his yard and three others
on his ranch. To date he has lost
seven dogs. a bull valued at 500.
and several calves. One dog, which
was attacked by a coyote. was Sc
verely bitten, but as MI. Clifford is
not sure that the coyote was rabid,
he has not killed the dog, penning it
up and watching it closely for signs
of rabies. He values the animal a.
$500.
Mr.. Clifford believes that some
thing should be done at once toward
Kidding that part of the county OF
the pests.
Some months ago Nye County set
aside a special fund of $1,000, to be
used in assisting in the determination
of the coyotes. This money is to be
used in hiring men to hunt the ami.
mails and will be handled by E. K,
Sans, employed by the Government
to look after the killing of coyotes ir
Nevada.
w. A. Marsh. chairman of the
board of County Commissioners, has
wired Mr.. Sans that immediate &C
ton should be taken in this section
that rabid coyotes are causing grea'
damage to live stock and are endan
gering the lives of individuals.

Who WILL HAVE .MAJ0RITY

How the Prosressives of 1912 Are Divid-
ing-Democratic Support for Hughes
and Republican Support for Wilson
Make Prospect Uncertain
The campaign is drawing to a close
with both of the great parties hope
full of success, but with neither very
sure of it.
Among the unknown quantities
are the Progressive votes-how they
will divide as between the two candi-
dates; the pro-German vote; the pro-
Ally vote; the other hyphenated votes;
the women's vote; the business mems
vote; the labor vote, and various
others.
1t seems to be shown by extensive
straw votes" that Progressives-
meaning those who voted for Roose-
Welt in 1912-are dividing nearly in
the proportion of IA per cent for
Hughes, "a for Wilson. and 2 for the
Socialist or Prohibitionist candidates.
If the changes stopped here, Will
son would have a popular major
ity in the whole country; but nobody
knows how many who voted for Will
son four years ago will vote against
him now. There will surely be many
such. German-Americans Sc e m
united against him because he was
"too harsh" with Germany in the
Lusitania affair. Many of the anti
German elements are quite as strong
~ opposed to him, for the precisely
opposite reason that he was not harsh
enough with Germany over that af-
air. Mr.. Wilson has in fact offended
a numbered special classes, in one
way and another, by not taking their
view of what his course as President
should have been.
Republican Support for Wilson
On the other hand, he is supported
by. many influential Republicans who
never before supported a Democratic
candidate for President. The list in
cludes such names as those O Thoma'
A. Edison. Henry Ford, Mrs. Ella
Flagg Young. Jane Adams. Johr
Burroughs. Luther Burbank. DR.

in some walk of life not connected
with politics. President Wilson's
course appeals very strongly to PEG
pie of that order; but whether it ap-
peals to the great mass of silen'
voters. cannot be told before No
vember Z.
IL Country Still Republican,
It must be remembered that the
country has been for % years strong

elected four years ago as a minorit.
candidate only because the Republi
can party had split. From 1874 tt
1892. inclusive. the country seemed
to be Democratic and most of thu
national elections showed a plurality
for that party. The year 1893, will
its great financial panic, was tn
turning point. Has the pendulum
now swung back? That remains t.
be seen.
