In the belief that some of the mayors of some of our 

 American cities having over 30,000 i^opulation would take 

 an interest in the founding of the jNIontana Bison Herd, 

 if invited to do so, the president of the Society wrote an 

 urgent individual letter to each one of the mayors of 150 

 cities containing 30,000 inhabitants, or above, excepting 

 only those of New York and Boston. The officials ad- 

 dressed were asked to take such steps as might be neces- 

 sary to cause subscriptions to be collected in their respec- 

 tive cities. There was no result.
