EDITORIAL PAGE
KILL TH:J MAKAL'DEKS.
"File advices brought by Robert
Henderson, discoverer of the Klon
dike, who -recently returned from
the Kelly country, to the effect, that
wolves overrun that region and are
exterminating the moose, deserve se
rious consideration of the Yukon leg
islators and executives. Mr. Hender
son points out th.it where the woods
once were filled wiht moose, hunters
now scarcely find any evidences of
Llieui, while wolves infest the en
tire region.
"The wolves not only prey upon
the moose, but also upon the cari
bou and the iur-bearing animals.
The loss is not so keenly felt by
Yukon now as it may be later, but
even now 'iij animals which the
wolves secure yearly might yield
profitable employment to shores
of trappers aud reiurn hundreds of
thousands of dollars' worth of pelts
to the territory annually.
"Not the Pelly alone, but all this
vast Xorthlanu suffers from the rav
ages of the wolves. The game on
the Alaskan a • well as on the"*Yu
kon side suffers in the same way;
likewise the g.-.j le of British Colum
bia, Mackenzie and Alberta. All
'hese neighboring countries, as well
as Yukon, sin aid awaken to the ap
preciation of the great loss they are
Suffering, and offer bounties or oth
erwise legislate to exterminate the
v. olves."—Dav st.n News.
\V<; have no doubt but that re
ports brought in by Mr. Henderson
of the ravages or wolves throughout
he interior a-e truthful, but do
not believe tht:r destruction would
:ier a solution of the difficulty.
There is 110 evidence to show that
the wolves are more numerous or
more ravenous than they have al
ways beer., ami, in fact, it is not
improbable, but very possible, that
since the advent ffito the country
few short yetra ago of the hordes
of . prospectors, miners and others
I that their number has materially
J lessened. The average white man
is the implacable foe of the wolf
and will in most instances go out of
i.is way, it" the chance offers, to kill
i one or more of them.
The Hudson's Bay men for the
j past hundred years or more have
roamed the interior, and during all
that time, notwithstanding the pres
ence of the wolves, suffered no
lack oi game to supply their wants.
| In fact, moose, the most wary of I
wild animals, were to be had at any j
time bv the hut.ier acquainted with 1
their haunts and habits, while count
rJess thousands of caribou wandered
peacefully through the valleys aivtl 1
over the hills, and the mountain I
ranges teemed with wild goats and '
• sheep. 1
The reason of the difference be-!
iween past and presnt conditions is 1
not hard to determine. In the early j
days the hutiler or miner or pros
pector only killed enough game to
tide over his necessities, while at
■ the present time, and during the
, whole of the past decade, a ruth
less slaughter, simply for the lust
of killing, has ben the rule and not
;he exception.
i The writer in his own experience
' in the interior well remembers an
instance of tiilE kind which came
J under his observation. 'At the j
confluence of tl\e Donjek and White ]
• rivers ;• party o' four hunters had j
been encamped for several weeks, |
and v, hen they broke up and started I
; on their way b:\ck to civilization, I
they left to rot the carcasses of not
i loss than fifty caribou which they
lad needlessly slaughtered, sus
pended from t!'>(- limbs of surround
j iug trees.
Why blame the woives for the
; scarcity of game when the real
: cause is so obvious?
