Deputy State Auditor Says He Thinks They are Big Dogs. Deputy Auditor Cook yesterday ran icross three more vouchers for wolf lounty , the applicant for the warrant slating he had killed three grey t' wolves In Nemnha county , says the Lincoln News. Some time ngo Audit or Scarlo stated that before ho would lionor a voucher for the killing of n grey wolf the man filing the same would have to bring the carcass to the state house as proof. "It Is my impression there are no grey wolves in Nebraska , " said the auditor , "and especially in that sec tion of the state where the popula tion is thick A grey wolf runs from civilization. There are still plenty of . coyotes but I don't believe Nebraska / ' is infested with the grey wolf. "Out in the west end of the state we used to have lots of trouble with grey wolves , for there Is no wny to get rid of them except to hunt thorn down. They range over counties cov ering an area of a hundred miles or moro. It Is Impossible for a grey wolf to be killed by putting out poison , because - cause they will not eat a dead carcass. When they become hungry they kill a cow or anything that comes along , but I have never run across an In stance where they have eaten a dead carcass. They want fresh meat. "A coyote will not attack a cow or any big animal. In fact a half dozen of them will not molest a cow. They are too cowardly. When I see a voucher setting out that a grey wolf has been killed I look upon It with suspicion and wonder If the animal killed wasn't a big shepherd dog.
