An experiment with the Edison tele-
phone tried between indianapolis and
Chicago one day last week shows in q
striking manner the power Of that in
strument. The distance between the
two cities is 30 miles, but the operator
at either end was not only able to hear
plainly what the other said, but to dis
tlnguish words whispered over the wires.
During the trial it occurred to the In
dlanapclis operator to have the wires
connected at the main Office IN Chicago
with private wire to the residence Of
friend. After good morning" had
been exchanged, the Chicago man ask
ed the other when he came to town and
where he was stopping, and was as.
founded to find that he was talking over
200 miles Of wire.

This Sarsaparillais a combination of
vegetable alternatives - Stillingia, Man
drake, Yellow Dock with the Iodides
of Potassium and Iron, and is the most
eficacious medicine yet known for
the diseases it is intended to cure.
Its ingredients are so skilfully COM
bined, that the full Alternative effect of
each is assured, and while it is so mild
as to be harmless even to children, it is
still so effectual as to purge out from the
system those impurities and corruptions
which develop into loathsome disease.
The reputation it enjoys is derived
from its cures, and the confidence which
prominent physicians all over the coun-
try repose in it, prove their experience
of its usefulness.
Certificates attesting its virtues have
accumulated, and are constantly being
received, and as many of these cases are
publicly known, they furnish convincing
evidence Cf the superiority of this Sar-
saparilla over every other Alternative
medicine. So generally is its superb
GRITTY to any other medicine known, that
we need do no more than to assure the
public that the best qualities it has ever
possessed are strictly maintained.

LIV STOCK

The subject OF protecting the grazing
lands OF Montana was given some attention
by the members and others interested dur
ing the last session of the Legislature, but
the subject was finally dropped, mainly on
the grounds that that body had no power to
interfere with the free domain. We see,
however, that our Colorado friends take an
other view Of the matter, and have lately
passed a law OF that subject. The text of
it which we take from the Vattey, Home and
Farm is as follows.
The bill to protect the grazing lands Of
Colorado from the stock of no~n-residents
has become a law and provides that cattle.
horses and all live stock except sheep shall
be taxed the sum Of fifty cents each in lieu
of all state, county or school taxes. That
sheep shall be taxed twenty cents each and
the owners or agents are required to file 4
certificate with the recorder Of the county in
which the stock is herded describing the
number and the brand and the time it il
proposed to herd such stock In the county.
The amount Of tax is to be paid within
thirty days after the fling Of the certificate.
1t is made the duty OF the commissioners to
see that this law is carried out, and, upon
information received to institute proceed
ings against the parties infringingit; three
fourths of the amount recovered to go to
the county and one-fourth to the state. The
bill was approved by the Governor Febru-
airy 1st.

Ter them that stock don't like-which is all
bosh. My horses are running in the same
field with the sheep, and are doing well.
Feed them a little hay every day, all togeth-
er. Plenty Of men in Montana have sheep,
as well as horses and cattle. Sheep leave
less grass because they are herded close on
the level ground so the hereaer can see them
all, but they leave millions of acres Of roll
ing ground for loose stock, where a herder
could hot handle his flock.

Snow all gone and stock doing well. IF
there Is no snow in that Musselshell conn-

Missouri river below the canyon will keep

raised in Queensland on this account.

As the question of an effective roundup
law has agltated the minds of some of our
stocknlen, we deem it proper to print the
following synopsis of the law lately passed
BY the Legislature OF Colorado. After first
prescribing the bonds of the districts the
bill provides that the Governor shall m.
point three commissioners for each district
on or before the first day 0 March of each
year, to be known rs roundup commission
ers, aud WHO shall be actual owners of cat
tie running upon the range within the dis
srlct FOR which they are appointed. These
commissioners Or q ma GRITTY Of them, shall
nave power and it shall be their duty. on or
before the first of April of each year, to ar
range the programme for the annual spring
round-nps, to fix the time OF their con-
mancement, to hire the foreman, and to re-
