fighting men in his regiment.

The stockmen's Meeting.

There appears to be no question that the
meeting of stockmen to occur on Wednes-
day and Thursday, March % and 30, at this
place, will be all that its most sanguine
friends could ask, for, since the preliminary
meeting last week to arrange for it, stock
men from every direction have indicated
that they are heartily i'm sympathy with the
enterprise. The gentlemen i'm charge of
the arrangements are energetic and popular
and will leave nothing undone to make the
meeting the most pleasant gathering In the
history of the Southwest. 1t will certainly
be as largely attended as the meeting of
last March, and everyone admits that it was
in every way success.
The committee of general arrangements,
selected last week by the citizens to get ND
the meeting, met Monday at the INDEX of
flee aud organized by electing w. w. Cook
chairman, A. G. Smith secretary, and Geo.
Geppert treasurer.
1t was agreed, on motion Of E. w. Payne,

A time Is now fixed for meeting of the
stockmen at Medicine Lodge, and it Is of
the greatest importance that ranchmen
study well the points to be considered at
that meeting, thar they may at the proper
time lay plans for their summers work to
the best advantage. The first and most i'm
portant work is to make proper arrange
ments for the spring roundup. The meet
ing is not Of any particular society or Or
ganization, but is for the stockmen gener-
ally who range their cattle In this part of
the state or Territory. 1t has been too of
ten the case that the round-ups here CON-
menced too early. Last year, in particular,
the first roundup In this county was a
waste Of time and horse flesh, as well as
great injury to cattle. This year when
ranchmen are generally short of horses,
and cattle are thin in flesh, the roundup
should by all means be put Off as long as
possible; and 1t seems TO us that If it can
be so arranged that the Territory rouDd-ups
could be had before the ones in Barbour
county 1t would be of great advantage to
Barbour county stoekmen, as the Territory
range will admit of earlier work than ours,
aud the cattle are in better shape for work.
The pastures there will very greatly assist
in securing a close gather the first hunt i'm
the spring. while the cattle in Barbour
county can be held as easily before as after
and give them time to gain strength and
flesh.
Then the matter Of an inspector at Kan
sas City during the shipping season is one
Of very great importance to the people and
should not be overlooked by the conven-
ton.
Let cattlemen study these questions well
and be prepared to act with that good
Judgment that will be to all parties salts
factory in the end. These are matters that
particularly interest stockman, wheth.
er he owns few or many cattle. The great
est expenses In the business is gathering
considering the length of time he is ell
gagged at it,which If properly systematic
cd will save many dollars to him.
