Tho gentleman replied that I was tho man ho was looking for. 'I wanted to explain to you,' ho said, -uiai you auu u iuw more like you havo about ruined my business.'

Ho wont-on to explain that he had just branched out nicely three or four years ago In the stag hound business, when along came the bounty law and niado such a scarcity of varmints for tho hounds to chase that he could not dispose of his increase.

"Tho first law, which was created at the legislative session of 1898-9, while It served the desired purpose so far as the destruction of predatory animals was concerned, failed to pro vide revenue to defray the expenses. It, therefore, fell to the lot of the ses sion of 1900- not only to enact pTac tlcally a new law on this subject and to provide the money to pay the ex penses, but to provide means for pay ing the scalp certificates Issued un der the old law, amounting, In round numbers, to the sum of $120,000. "And yet. I will say, for the encour agement of friends of this measure, this was accomplished by the last legislature In tho face of exactly the same opposition that the law now has, when, at tho coming session It will only require one-half or oven a less amount of stato aid In order to con tinue the presont bounty.
