Mr.. Plsnkett, of Plunkett, Roche Il
Co, arrived in this city from the west
yesterday afternoon. The firm ships
from Rock Creek ON the LIST of October.
Mr., Plunkett reports that quite a num-
Der of his cattle have become blind on
the drive down-a peculiar fact, diff.
cult to explain.
Drovers' Journal: Such men as Den
mis- Sheedy, Elijah TusIar, Eli Titus,
and other ranchmen are of the opinion
that the recent sharp decline in prices
for range cattle will have the effect of
cutting the late supplies much shorter
than vas generally anticipated. The
fact of the matter lis, current rates are
but little higher than one year ago, and
as ranchmen are in no way pressed for
money, having realized handsomely on
early shipments, a great many cattle,
mostly thin, but some fat, will be turned
loose on the range rather than let them
come at present prices. The total num-
Der of range cattle from the northwest
is liable to fall $4,000 to 80, 900 head
short of last years run, as ranchmen
have probably never been able to act
more Independently, and they will take
some chances on next season rather than
sacrifice so much now when it is IN
necessary.
News and Press: John IL. Stone and
brother have sold their stock of cattle
and horses and 200, OO0-acre pasture in.
Clay and Archer counties, Texas, to
the Wichita Land and Cattle compa-
ny, with abundant capital, recently
organized in Kansas City. 1t is COM
posed of such well-known capitalists
and ranchmen as G. ". Word, Dickey
Bros, and Charles NJ. Plowman. The
latter-named gentleman will be the
general manager. This is n of the
finest stocks in the. state, and the in
vestment will prove a good one.
Kansas City is still going ahead of
st. Louis as Il cattle market. In Au-
gust, 81, st. Louis received A., 14O head
of cattle, an excess of G,340 head over
Kansas City; last month Kansas City's
receipts were 1862, and st. Louis AS
434, showing that the former place re-
ceived 2S,61S head more than st. Louis.
An Arizona correspondent writes to
the News and Press: Beef cattle are
in demand and the country is full of
purchasers, who say that cattle are
scarce and demand a good figure.
Early this spring great numbers were
shipped into Arizona, north of Pres
colt, and are called republican cattle,
as the republicans rule that section and
good beef is required.
Sixteen thousand head of sheep, en-
route from New Mexico to Nebraska,
passed through Stockton, Kansas, the
other day.

a cANDIDATE TO WIN.

Morton L. Post is the man the LEAD
Err supports for delegate to congress.
Our reasons He is a representative
man of the territory. He has an exact
knowledge Of its needs; he is to a large
extent a sharer in its material interests;
he is well acquainted with the charact-
Ell of its people; he is one of its Oldest
citizens; he is imbued with its enter
prising spirit, and he is known in every
settlement and on every ranch as a
man Of shrewd, driving, pushing, trust
ling' character.
The experience he has gained in CON
gress in the last two years will, in case
he is sent there again, be of great bene-
ut to the territory. His reelection
would be an Endorsement of his charact.
Ell and abilities on the part of the people
of Wyoming.
No man in the democratic party has
been mentioned for the place this year,
and supported by a considerable body
of voters, but him. He is the first
choice of hisown party and the mar in
it who has the greatest share of good
will in the ranks of the republican par
ty.
Mr.. Post is a man whom all demo-
Gratis can support with the feeling that
in sending him TO congress they are
sending a representative man of their
party. Republicans can vote for him
with the knowledge that they are not
supporting a violent partisan, but a
well-wisher for the territory, who has
proved himself highly capable Of per-
forming the duties of the office for
which he is a candidate and who reflects
honor opon the position. No delegate
in congress from this territory ever re-
tanned the good will of his constituents
to a greater degree than Mr.. Post.

A CANDIDATE NOT TO BE
ELECTED.

The republican territorial convention
has passed over the distinguished and
able men of the party and nominated
for delegate that good fellow, Jack Mel
d rum.
Jack owes his nomination to his work
as a politician. The territory has not
d more active partisan nor a more tena-
cious Office holder. The court house
ring of Albany county acknowledge
him as ''boss." As a representative in
congress, Jack would be rather light
timber.

The east bound Pullman sleeper run
on the U. p. are not sufficient to ac-
commodate the demands of travel.
Not a day passes that does not see
numerous passengers at the point dis
appointed in their desire for berths.
Some parties after waiting for several
days have been obliged to take passage
in the day coaches after all. When
travel is light accommodations are
plentiful. indeed; but invariably
during the busy season there are not
accommodations for the dear public"
for which we all labor. There must be
''something rotten in Denmark"

Old Probs has been extremely indul-
gent towards ''we'uns" this season.
Instead of occupying most of the sum
mer in scattering the best of our soil
over Colorado, he has kindly permitted
us to use our w dirt and raise sun
flowers and some scattered blades of
green grass-green because it is new to
the business and makes awkward work
of it. However after passing through
yesterdays dust storm we are led to
infer that this pleasant time of proba-
tion isat an end. Colorado fields must be
replenished and our citizens who wish
to keep any soil about their places had
best tie it down, for real estate is on
the rise.

The cold rain of yesterday, which
will probably he an introduction to a
hard winter, gave u strong hint to
Cheyenne gentlemen to lay in their
stock of winter clothing. Smith *
Harrington, in anticipation of the cold
snap, have laid in a full and complete
line Of clothing, overcoats and listers
the latest in styles, the best in quality
and the lowest in prices. That's what
Smith IL Harrington do, every time.

The Black Hills Times says that the
immense herd of buffalo which has been
ranging north of the Hills, is gradually
working south, and from present APP
pearance will soo be down close to the
Pierre road. Every few days stragglers
off the main herd are heard OF to the
east of the Hills, apparently following
the larger streams empting into the
Cheyenne river.

EDITORIAL SMALL SHOT.

THE secretary of the interior has decided
that the Indian Territory can't be invaded by
cattle raisers.
THE Galveston Print talks like any Other
democratic idiot when it has anything to say
about President Arthur and the Independent,
movement south.
North Texas is generous enough to repel
the idea that it desires to be compensated fol-
voting the Democratic ticket. If every man
on the State ticket, and every appointee
should be from southern, eastern or western
Texas, North Texas would still vote for and
elect the Democratic nominees Dallas
Times.
Don't doubt it in the least. Judge Ireland
is perfectly secure in North Texas-let him
bestow all his official favor on the west
where it will do the most good.
If Governor Davis had left Texas fifteen
years ago the state would have been much
better off, says the Meridian Blade Bren-
ham Banner.
One hundred thousand honest, patriotic
citizens Of Texas think differently. But if
Gov Davis had left Texas for good when he
put on mis- sword to cut down treason, he
might have been richer and younger man
to-day. As true patroit, an honest man and
a real friend of Texas. Gov. Davis has been
among the public men of our state to-day.
Had he possessed ambition above his love of
the state, and his sense of duty, his entire
political career would be different from what
it is to-day. Immediately of the 18th
Legislature was organized, the
election of U. S. senators took place. Gov.
Davis was offered unanimously almost the
long and shor, term to which Morgan Ham,
ilon was elected, and yet he declined this
high position to remain governor of Texas
because he believed it would be desertion of
the post assigned to him by the people, and
he remained governor to ward off the calamity
Of debt that fastened on every other southern
state through reconstruction government. He
brought peace and law and order to Texas.
Only the murderer and law breaker should be
his maligner.
