In the opinion of the city water

Bounties on Wild Animals.

Two hundred thousand dollars is
great deal of pin money, but that
is the approximate amount which
has been added to the incomes Of
farmers, school boys, aud profess
sional trappers in this state within
the last five years for bounties paid
on wild animals. OF this amount
the counties and the state have paid
an equal share.
The wolf and the fox are the
only animals on which the state
will pay bounty at present. Each
county sets the bounty that It will
pay upon these animals, and the
state will pay an equal amount
A wolf in Grant county taken ID
the months of December, January,
or February IS a real prize for the
total bounty then IS $50, on March
his value shrinks 10 but $40.
Most Of the counties offer
bounty Of $40 on wolves. The
rest Of the counties pay up as high
as SIS, which is the figure set by
Oneida county. The usual amount
paid for wolf cubs is six dollars.
Were the bounty the only rea-
son for hunting the fox, the sly
fellow would have little 10 trouble
him; for no one would try to trap
Reynard for the total bounty Of
four dollars.

may place a bounty upon crows

afternoon. An organization was
perfected with the following Of
ficers: Chas. Bonino, chairman;
Domenic Rubatt, secretary; P. J..
Lancer, assistant secretary.
The secretary was instructed to
write to various concerns and get
prices on four miles Of new pipes,
two miles of 6-inch pipes and two
miles of 4-inch pipes.
The action of the water com
mittee is believed to be the first
definite step towards providing
Hurley with a new water system
from a source near the city. The
water problem has been discussed
at the council meetings for some
time with no dihnite Developments
Lake Lavina has been considered
the logical source OF supply, and
although it is not believed that the
water could be taken direct from
the lake, since the Lake Lavjna
water is not considered suitable for
household use nor for drinking It
is believed that wells could be sunk
near the lake and a good supply Of
water secured. The matter Of
bonding the city 70 raise funds to
provide a water system has also
been talked OF.

NO REDUCTION IN STREET
CAR FARE AT PRESENT
Street Railway Company Says Ii WO uld
Be Impossible to Accede to De-
mand for Five Cent Fare.

That there is a slim chance of
getting voluntary reduction in
street car fares in the city of Hur-
ley is indicated in a communication
from the Ironwood & Bessemer
Railway and Light company, which
was read at the regular monthly
meeting of the city council Tues
day evening.
Aldermen Collins, Secor and
Pollock were appointed as a COM
mittee al the meeting of the council
last Sept. 20 to confer with the
street railway company officials
and to seek reduction in fares in
the city of Hurley from the pre-
sent price of six cents to five cents
In the communication, which was
addressed TO Chairman A. F.
Collins, the company stated that it
would be impossible to reduce the
fares at this time in view of the
present conditions, contending that
the fare should be increased rather
than decreased, as the revenue at
present was not enough to pay
operating expenses. Street car
fares in Ironwood were touched up
on in the communication The
fare i'll Ironwood was recently re-
duced TO the old rate of FIVE cents
and this, says the communication
was unfair, and was only brought
about through the fact that the
company IS operating under an
old franchise. The reference TO
the situation in Ironwood in regard
TO street car fares concluded with
the remark that unless there is
some change in the Ironwood situa-
ton ard our revenue does not in
crease some means will have to be
found of giving the street railway
relief if it is to continue operating "
The company stated that it would
gladly go back to the old rate OF
five cent fares in Hurley if costs of
operation reduced, but intimated
that there was small chance of
such a thing at the present time.
An offer to go into the matter
further was made.
No action in the street railway
fare matter was taken at Tues
days meeting of the city council.
A permit to conduct soft drink
parlor in the Moose saloon build
ing was granted to Joe Caligaro
Members of the library board APP
peared before the council in the
matter of an appropriation for the

will be made.

Why the French Failed.

The French madea tragic failure
at building the Panama Canal be-
cause the great loss of life on the
Isthmus from the ravages of ma
laria and yellowfever made it i'm
possible to keep the necessary
manpower to accomplish the task.
When the United States under
took to accomplish the big job and
finish the uncompleted work, the
first efforts were spent in making
it safe from these diseases.
The canal is complete and the
loss Of life occurring during its
building is negligible as compared
to that suffered by the French.
All this was accomplished by the
application Of sanitary measures.
First, by insuring wholesome water
supplies. Second, by screening
all living quarters to prevent the
entrance Of mosquitoes which car
ried malaria and yellow fever.
Third, by oiling or draining all
water pools which might offer a
breeding place for those mosque
toes. Fourth by keeping cut away
all unnecessary vegetation which
might harbor mosquitoes.
+ So effective has been the work
that today a mosquito or a fly in
the canal zone is almost curios-
lily. The health is better and the
death rate lower than in many
parts of the United States.
Scores Of towns in the South
west, in Arkansas, Missouri, Okla
homa and Texas can take a leaf
from the Panama. Canal experience.
Malaria is the scourge of many
communities, yet little is being
done to check the malady. Is
your community one of these?
Local interest and cooperation
with the state health campaign
against malaria will do the job.
