HOUNDS PROTECT
GAME ANIMALS
ROSS GREER AND JAP BURDEN,
WITH DOGS, CURB PREDATORY
ANIMALS IN BIG DISTRICT

One of the best projections to deer
and other game animals, and to Dlrds,
is a good pack of dogs, according to
Ross Greer, who was in MOSCOW,
Tuesday. from his ranch in the Cove,
in the northern part of Latah county.
Mr.. Greer, and Jap Burden, another
pioneer of the district, have run
hounds for the past II years together,
while for some 20 or more years pre-
vious Mr.. Burden operated alone
The two. with their faithful hounds,
have to their credit the destruction
of manv hundreds of predatory ami
mails.
Mr. Greer. in report made out
for the state game warden, sets forth
that he and Mr.. Burden, who run
their hounds together, both keeping
dogs for the protection OF their own
stock and chickens, last winter bagged
five bobcats and AZ coyotes, wnlle the
hounds caught and killed numper
of coyotes which their owners ala hoI
find. In his report Mr.. Greer asKeu
that the community and the game de-
partment protect the dogs as much
as possible as they are of real bene-
fit in protecting domestic and game
animals.
The coyote, Mr. Greer states, is
one of the worst foes of the deer and
he believes that since the dogs have
been waging war on the coyote, there
are from five to ten times as many
deer in the territory between the state
line and the Harvard district Ine
two packs of dogs, belonging to Greer
and Burden, operate mostly IN tne
Viola, Princeton, and Potlatch pre-
cincts.
The average number of coyotes,
bobcats. and lynx killed per year by
the dogs is about 40, in addition to
which an occasional bear is killed. |
The bears. Mr.. Greer states, are one
of the worst enemies of the game
birds. In trailing bear he says that
he finds where they have killed
pheasants and destroyed or robbed !
the nests.
People in the neighborhood some
times think that the dogs are chasing
deer, Mr.. Greer states, but this is not /
the case. In running coyotes he says I
he has followed his dogs through as
many as nine deer beds, which the |
covotes have passed through in order
to throw the dogs off the trail, but
that the dogs stay consistently with
the coyote.
Predatory animals may be taken at
anv time of the year and Mr.. Greer's
principal sport is in following his
excellent pack of hounds. The
hounds are protected by law, and can
only be killed with the permission of
he game warden or a county official.
oc of fnru animals
killed are shipped to various concerns,

No Way to Restrain Enterprising Thugs Who
Sell Others Thoughts?
By ROBERT H. DAVIS, in New York Herald.

~ ~ - HEN Gabriel blows his final trump a million musicians win
MMU bend an ear to the blast, hoping to capture a new theme.
WV The moment a new novel appears, IN army of imiators seize
upon its style, its texture and its motive. Mortal poets are
helping themselves to the works of immortal poets. Shortstory writers
are following the o. Henry model so closely that it amounts to impudence
Jokes are deliberately stolen by the thousands, remodeled and thrown on
the market in bales. Epigrams ire the common property of those who see
them last. c.
There isn't a magazine that hasn't received dozens of manuscripts
stolen bodily, with a few characters, dates, and locations mildly altered,
the title changed and a paragraph here and there modified. We have all
been caught repeatedly. Plagiarism is on the increase.
The pagiarist is not only a foe to the editor and the reading public,
but also to the new authors. An editor whose fingers have been burned by
stolen manuscripts finds himself unayodaby preiudced against writer's
whom he does not know. Ten years ago contributions from strangers were
accepted on their merit and printed under the assumption that the writer's
were honest men. 1t is now regarded as a necessary precaution to write
to a new author, whose manuscript has attracted attention, and ask for
references. Even these precautions do not always succeed. One must
wait for the publication of the plagiarism before a comparison with the
original can be made. In the interval the fraud is accomplished. A
comparison of the two stories supplies the evidence of guilt.
1t is the opinion of the writer that unwarraned lenieney has been
shown these offenders The usual penalty is a severance of connections,
followed occasionally by the return of the money dishonesty collected.
A period of agreeable silence follows. after which the malefactor sits down
with a ream Of white paper, selects another alias, and continues in the
business of selling old tales for new.
It is inconceivable that in the exalted profession of letters the occu-
patton Of p~lmdering can be made so profitable. Is there no way to
restrain by court procedure the enterprisng thugs who sell others
thoughts?

BIG TELESCOPE FOR RUSSIA
instrument Manufactured in British
Factory Weighs Nine Tons and
Is AS Feet Long.

In view of the present condition of
Russia, it is rather surprising to find
that the Soviet government has or
dered a telescope which is one of the
largest in the world. This telescope
has just been completed in Il British
factory, and will shortly be transport
ed TO an observatory on the shores of
the Black sea. 1t weighs about aine
tons, and the inside length of the tube
Is 10 feet. Heavy as the telescope Is,
it is SO admirably fitted that it can
be moved by electrical means as easily
as If it were a small portable ap-
paratus. The push-button system of
control has been adopted. so that all
the operator has to do to direct
the telescope to any part of the heav-
ems is to press certain buttons. A
second telescope, almost rs large as
this, is being made at the same Brit
ish factory for another observatory In
Russia. So delicate is the work on
these giant instruments that about
three years are occupied in designing
and constructing them.

Still One Field Open to Women Where They

Thank heaven, there is still one field left open to women where they

Why take the men along? Why, even if their resistance can be
overcome, and a ukeWarm enthusiasm results? There are few difficulties
to be met with in touring that cannot be just as we'll, if not more easily
dealt with by women travelling alone than if in company with a man.
And, oh. the advantages! And the larks that result from such
experiences! For there are advantages from the time the car is left to be

The police with one accord are more lenient with women making

strangers in stranger towns, etc; while mechanics seem to blossom forth
into fits Of unheard-of speed under a fire of ignorant questions and

Austria can be and is being made sefsupportng by the intensified
ton Of her agriculture and the development of her water power to take the
place Of coal. Great projects for water-power Development are already
under way. The first stretch of railroad run by electricity will be opened
this fall. The government monopoies Of tobacco and salt both show a
profit. The railroads are run at a loss, but are being recognized; they will
still belong to the state, but with the advantages and economy of private

Europe east of Holland, and the fact that she is being run
on a business basis, Is bringing in investors. The savings banks

save. Nobody could save or invest while the crown that was worth a cent
one day might be worth the SEVENTEEN of a cent the next. For six months

AS the First Move, People Must Be Helped Back
to the Power of Faith

As the first move, people must be helped back to that power of faith,
that capacity for believing in their own power for good and their neigh
boris will for good, as well as in the ability of providence, God, the laws
of nature, or whatever name they choose to employ, to run the universe
satisfactorily without any human intervention or guidance.
When we get the ten commandments back in their place as the guild
ing star of respectable men and women, and the criminal code back where
it belongs as the danger signal for the eyi-minded minority, we shall be
well OH the way to that mental repose which will allow us to recover our
nervous health and stem the tide which is leading mankind to universal
insanity.
[ am not preaching any religion in saying that. The ten command
ments are the basis of the Jewish, Buddhist and Mohammedan religions
as well as the various seds of the Christian faith. We want genuine
religion, not fakirisms and faddisms. We need sincerity in religion, and
we need belief in the goodness of things, of nature, of destiny, Of our
neighbors and ourselves, and unless we can get these things there is no
hope for the stopping of the headlong downward rush.
