JAKWAYS PROPOSES
HUGE ELK PRESERVE
FOR UNRULY HERDS
Has Launched Movem e n t
Among Lodges to Provide
Grazing Grounds.

Helena, Jan. &C. A. Jakways,
chief Of the states fish and game de-
partment, returned to Helena this
morning from q visit to Gardiner,
where he has been investigating the
plight of the elk from the herds In
Yellowstone park that wander across
the state line and play havoc with the
fences and other property of the farm
ers of the region borjsring the park.
Mr.. Jakways says the farmers are
really in need of measures that will
afford them relief. He already has
launched a movement that he hopes
will bear results. His proposal was
first made to the Missoula B. P. O..
Elk's lodge, of which he is a member,
and is to the effect that the national
membership of the order further a plan
to buy up the holdings of the settlers
in the district affected and establish
a huge preserve that will supply the
elk with grazing grounds throughout
the winter season when feed is short
In the park. Unless some such move
ment is undertaken, says Mr.. Jskways,
the elk are doomed to determination.
The warden believes that subordin-
ate lodges of the B. p. o. e. will sup
port the plan and that it ban be pre-
sented to the grand lodge of the order
at its next meeting in such shape that
it will receive support of that body TO
the extent that an assessment will be
levied upon the membership sufficient
to provide the preserve suggested.

developed tuberculosis or nervous
troubles which could not be definitely
connected with war experiences, but
which nevertheless were probably
brought on by strain and hardship
abroad. The league hopes, when pos

Almost all organizations of this post

honor of their war dead. The league
plan for tribute to the women who

bilities of the league establishing an
orphanage in some French city.
In nine months 1000 Of the 24,Ooo

"We held that under these clauses

STATE TAX LEAGUE

WYE d1c AL AeSSAPS
w pamphlet issued by the State
Tax league that certainly contains
the sort of information that every
taxpayer ought to know. It deals
with facts only and leaves the read
er to draw his own conclusions
from these facts. They are startling
enough in themselves. For IN
stance, we learn that the per capita
taxation has grown from $7.7l in
1870 to $50 in 1921. Note the
growth by years. In 1870 it was
$7.71 per head. In 1880 it had only
increased to $500 per capita. In
1890 it reached $l7.7o. Then,
strangely enough, it fell to Sl5.s3
in 1902. It rose again to $26.s3 in
1912, to $41.s1 in 1918, to $42.7o
in 1919, to $46.6o in 1920 and to
$50 in 1921. Out of every dollar
raised in taxation in 1921, we are
told that AZ cents went to support
the public schools, 80 cents went
to support county government, II
cents went to support city govern
ment and eight cents went to sup
port the state government. The
total expenditures in Montana for
schools, including high schools, IS
given in a table which records each
county in detail FOR the last seven
wears. The totals in all counties
for 1914 are $5,7e4,236; in 1915,
$6,2eo, 1874; in 1916, $7,16e,e27; in
1917, $s,2o7,e45; in 1918, $1o,o4o,-
63e; in 1919, $11,284,s25; in 1920,
$14.214,i4O. In Cascade county the
figures ran in the seven years be-
tween 1914 and 1920 as follows
s343,os5, $437,447, $511,1s5, S547,-
623, $741,446, S745,7s6, $848,45o.
The increase in the cost of schools
in the state in the seven years was
l45 per cent. The increase in the
number of pupils was AZ per cent.
From 1914 to 1920 govern
mental expenses increased from
$s,4s7,S1e to S11,442,s47, or 1os per
cent. Interest on county indebted
ness, increased from $401,335 to
$1,4o0,975, or 271 per cent. Capital
outlay (roads, bridges and build
ings), increased from $1,528,3l5 to
$6,115,343, or 800 per cent. Miscel-
laneous expenditures, increased
from $175,o27 to S1,211,s1s or 5ez
per cent and the population Of the
state in the same period, increased
% per cent.
These are facts and figures that
shout their lesson. They do not
require any comment and the State
Tax league makes none. 1t is gooe
work. We are promised more OF
the same and will be glad to aid II
calling it to the attention of our
readers. Armed with such infor
nation, they will soon learn how
to use to advantage and apply it II
a practical way. Let the good worl
go on. Let the lights Of facts bs
projected over the state and tn.
taxpayers will wake up and apply
the needed remedy.
And, don't forget, that if th'
state tax burdens amount now t
about $50 per capita, the fedora
taxes amount to nearly as mucl
more, though many of them ar
indirect in their collection. There
fore, the average person who re
ceives wages or income, must carr
