The Gray Wolf to Be
 Wiped Out in Five Years.

The gray wolf, responsible for a large percentage of cattle and sheep losses in the western part of the coun- try, will be exterminated in Utah in two years, and the western states will be freed of the animal within five years through the campaign against predatory animals now being conduct ed by the United States department of Agriculture. This is the opinion of Dr. A. H. Fisher, in charge of the economic investigations of the biologi- cal survey of the department, given during recent visit to Salt Lake City.
 Dr. Fisher said there were only about 100 gray wolves left in Utah. He estimated that each such wolf de- stroys S1,000 worth of stock annually and that $96,000 was paid by the gov ernment for hides of predatory ami mals last year, and that the various states received almost like amount. He declared that $4,000,000 worth of wool and meat, and S110,000,000 worth of grain and produce was saved last year through the killing of predatory animals.
 Sheep and cattle can be turned out on the range in places where it for merly was impossible before the de-

T. R. AND A BUNDLE
 OF RED TAPE.

Contributed by Hon. Regis H. Post,
 Governor of Porto Rico, 1907-1909.)
 One very remarkable thing about Colonel Roosevelt while he was presi- dent was his intimate knowledge of the entire machinery of the govern ment and the character of the person. nel, whether of his own appointments or from previous occupancy.
 On one occasion 1 had very im- portant matter regarding the audit of the customs receipts to arrange be- tween the insular government and the government of the United States. At that time Porto Rico was not under any one department of the govern ment but each insular official reported directly to the cabinet officer whose department his work fell under. As was entirely ignorant of the pro- cedure of the Federal Government at that time, and having no head of a department directly interested, went immediately to MT. Roosevelt for his advice how to proceed.
 He said, Are you in hurry?"
 l said, "Yes, if l can, 1 would like to go away on Wednesdays boat"
 He said, "What you will do is this: You will write letter to the governor who will forward it to the Secretary of State, who will forward it to me, who will forward it to the Secretary of the Treasury, who will forward it to an assistant secretary of the Treas ury, who will forward it to the Chief of Customs Bureau, who will refer it to the Comptroller of the Treasury, who will decide the question and for ward it back through all these chan nels to me, who will do exactly what the Comptroller of the Treasury de- cides. This will probably take about six weeks. I advise your going di- rectly to the Comptroller of the Treas ury. tell him what you want and then go back to Porto Rico."
 followed this advice and the whole matter was settled in fifteen minutes and l was able to get back to Porto Rico, although the final action, as he prophecied, was not taken up until six weeks later.

An abrupt end came late yestcr-

proposal that was Forthcoming, and
then dissolved, sine die.
