The Bulls and Bears ON the Plains.


The high price of beef during the past
summer and spring has been connected
with a reckless speculation among the
Wyoming and Colorado cattlemen that
is equal TO anything which has been ac-
complished by the Bulls and Bears of
Wall street; indeed, the high price of
meat was probably due to this specula-
ton more than to any other cause. Some
men have made fortunes, and others are
wishing they were never born. Many
transactions have been made in which
the buyer did not see hoof of his pur-
chase, and very likely did not use more
than half the purchase money in the
trade before he sold and made or lost an
enormous bargain in the deal A year
ago Laramie plains cattle-man was Of
tered large Utah herd and ranch for
$4,000, which offer was accepted at the
moment but later rejected. Since that
the Utah man sold $4,000 worth of the
herd, then sold the ranch for 81 800,
afterward put $4,000 more into the bunch
aud few lays ago sold it for $4,000.
In other words, the Utah man is to-day
ahead over $4,000 because his last
years offer was not accepted. But
where one has been made rich, hundreds
have been ruined.
Several years ago, one of the most
prominent cattlC-men in Wyoming, who
can now command 81 100000 for cat
tie trade without impairing his business,
went to Boston to negotiate with Mas.
sachusetts capitalists. He met an old
man who knew more about per cent than
he did about Wyoming and Colorado
cattle, and began to talk business. He
said he was making large profits on his
present investments, and therefore he
wanted to put more capital into the
business, very naturally, to increase his
income. Mr.. Moneybags asked what
security would be given.

LONDON, Sept. 5.-M. Etienne, the
well known French authority on the
subject, has issued his estimates of
the crops of the world for 1882. His
report is on the whole decidedly ia
vorable, indicating no serious def
cheney in the crops in any quarter of
the world, and a general abundance
throughout Europe and America
In summarizing the result the Times
says; "Never during the time since
these reports were collected has the
harvest in the Northern hemisphere
been SO good all round. We usually
had to report deficiency, either in
Europe or America. This year there
is absolutely none. The world has
over an average harvest, and the year
is likely to be one Of cheap album

Arrangements have again been
made with the Editor of the New
DOMINION to furnish teachers a col
umz to be devoted especially to the
educational interests of the county
and State. While the general value
and advantages Of column SO de-
voted are apparent to all, without
any comment, yet We desire to say a
word in regard to fhe manner in
which it should be supported and
used by the teachers of the county.
Ddfing the last school year the
matter for the educational column
was in the main furnished by a regu-
lar corps Of correspondents appointed
by the County Superintendent; but
this year we desire a different ar
rangement. 1t is thought best to
open this column TO all, and request
every teacher in the county to act as
regular correspondent; yea, more,
to invite every school officer and
friend of education to become an
active contributor to this column.
So much for the support of the col
umn.
Now as to the Use to be made of it.
This column is the proper place to
ask and discuss any question con-
corning the school law of the State;
for an interchange and discussion of
me thods of teaching and difficult
points in school discipline; teachers
wages and school text books; to
advocate and discuss any educational
reforms or changes needed, whether
in district, county or State; to keep
the people posted in regard to the
wants, true condition and progress
III the schools of the county. SO
supported and so used. this column
will be a power Of incalculable value
for good to the schools of the county.
1t is only thus that our teachers can
get the educational news of the
county each week.
Every teacher, school officer and
friend Of education in the county is
hereby asked to comply with the
above request.
The column Will be opened the
LIST of October. Let each teacher
decide at once Which one of the pa
pers he will write for, and regularly
furnish (say every two orthree weeks
something for the column-eitlier
original or selected.
A full report of the district Insti-
tutes soon to be held is desired
Respectfully;

County Superintendent.
