To THE INDEPENDENT: In regard to the dental law that is soon to come before the legislators of the state of Montana; out of the laws of thirty-two states now having dental laws, this is the best of all for all concerned. That it is an important law for the people can be readily seen from the fact that thirty-two states already have a similar law, making Montana a dump ground that catches students and so-called dentists that cannot practice in states hav ing laws regulating the practice of den tistry. At the same time this law is no hoc law, like the laws of two sister states, for it gives a competent dentist a right to prau tice if he has brains enough, whether he holds a diploma or not. I have Iraetiesd dentistry under a law nearly the same in New York state twelve years, and have seen the quality of dental work improve every year sinoe that law was passed in 1879. nd during that time more than 100 quacks have been given the privilege of quitting the practice of dentist y or quitting the state to locate where there were no dental laws. Now, I would say to the legislators of Montana, if you want quacks to care for your teeth, or rather the money they get out of you. veto this law; if you want your teeth cared for properly, pass this law and you will do more for the people's comfort than you could do in any other way. Jorns V. COLE, Dentist. Marysville, Mont. The Biounty Law. To TIHE INDEPENDENT: I beg leave to em phbasize through your valuable paper the importance of a new law in regard to the bounty on wolves and coyotes. A few dave since, I was riding through the timber about twelve miles north of Helena in search of stock, when I heard the yelping of a vack of coyotes that seemed to be set ting ne4ror every minute. Just then I emerged from the th:ck timber into a small open s;,ace or park, as it is called, and al most at the same moment a bay mate en tered the park directly opposite me, fol lowed by a sorrel colt, perhaps a week old. Close behind the colt came twelve or fifteen laige coyotes. Being unarmed I could ren dle no assistance and the coyotes finally overtook the colt, pulled it down and pro ceeded to devour it. Now, if this sort of thing is going on so near a thickly-settled region, what must be the state of affairs where the country is more sparsely settled, as is the case with the et ckrasiing regions of this state. Our state legiialatnre. now in session, shouldgive this matter their special attention and be fore adjournment they should pass a law so that wolves and coyotes should be extermi nated, and the stock interests of the state protectld. :Tor(KMAN.
