1--WE Wars OF PRosPERIrr.

The uneasiness which has existed FOL
some time among the stockmen in the
Territory, has at last ceased, and al
have settled down in the hope of being
let alone for awhile, and of being nc
longer harrassed by frequent and in.
consistent rulings by the authorities al
Washington. Much Of the discord and
inconvenience was caused by the action
Of some Of the ranchmen who in their
efforts to do the best for themselves
were too persistent in their entreaties.
Then there were local differences be-
tween neighbors, such as invariably
arise when there is no responsible head
to look to for adjustment Of troubles
and these little quarrels were paraded
before the Interior department, i'm mag
nified forms, until the impression gain
ed that the Territory stockmen were by
no means happy family.
But now, through the intervention OF
wise heads, there is every prospect OF
perfect harmony. The Cherokee Ma
ton has leased the grazing lands to the
representatives Of a stockman's organi-
zation, and these will, in time sub-let
70 ranchmen, now in possession, such
range as they are entitled to. And this
association Of stockmen is not a specu-
lating aggregation Of adventures, OF a
soulless corporation. 1t is made I'D of
cattlemen who have been on the range
in question from the time it was first
used by civilized people, men who have
small as well as large punches of cattle
there, who have been the very enaetors
OF the present perfect system of I'M
written law, by which stockmeu are so
generally governed. This association,
we say, will have control of the lands.
Its members elect the officers and board
OF directors, and these appoint the ar
bitration committee which settles all
disputes. 1t is a stockmen's democracy
for all power comes directly from the
the people interested, and is only dele
gated to their officers so far as absolute
ly necessary for the proper execution of
details.
Fortunate indeed are those who have
recognized rights in the Territory, for
five years of peaceful possession of a
good stock range is something most
anyone might be contented in the pos
session of.
A low estimate Of the increase in the
valuation Of the located herds in the
Territory since the action of the Cher
okee council, we think is 25 per cent,
for by knowing that they will not be
interrupted for five years, stockmen can
improve their stock and invest their
capital feeling that it will not be in
danger Of loss. We hope TO see Eve
years of prosperity with our Territory
neighbors, and their success will be in
directly blessing TO Barber county and

BREWERS AND PRoHIBrrIor.

The National Association Of Brewers
was in session at Detroit last week, and
In the course Of their proceedings free
ly discussed the prohibition question
from every standpoint. From the re-
port Of their proceedings we conclude
that they have not, as has been fire.
quently charged, flooded the states
where the prohibition movement was
being agitated with millions of money.
In Kansas, Iowa, Indiana and Missou-
ri they spent some money last year, but
the aggregate does not reach SO, 900. &C
cording To the report OF their treasurer.
How this money was used they do not
specify; but no matter how, such a
small amount could not have done
much towards influencing legislatures
or voters. People are not 30 easily

The association adopted q series of
resolutions which We publish below,
''for information, /" only, 40 they say in
parliamentary bodies. While there Is
much truth expressed In the resolutions
there are some Wild assertions that
many anti-prohibitiOnlsts do not be-
lieve altogether. Here are the resolu-
tons:

We hope the following story of how a
mean manSwas taken in at his own
game, is true. 1t ought to be. The
story is that merchant, who is also a
deacon in a Methodist church out in
Western Ohio, and noted for his liber-
atty, went to dollar store while in
Cincinnati buying his spring stock, and
bought table castor, on which he plac-
ed $l4 mark, and presented it to his
minister. The latter considered the
matter carefully, and finally concluded
the article was to fine for the other ia
bleware. He took it back to the mer-
chant and explained the situation to
him, stating that S14 worth of grocer
les would be much more appropriate.
The merchant did the only thing left
for him to doesn't the goods.-Ex.

The last Legislature Of Texas passed a
law providing that the several counties
shall provide a brand for cattle and
horses to be known as the county brand
The owner OF stock may place this on
their animals in addition to their pri-
vate brands. When horses or cattle are
moved to another county the owner may
cOunterbrand with the brand Of the
county into which they move, and by
placing bar under the original county
brand. When a stray is posted the
county clerk Is required to notify the
clerk Of the county to which the county
brand shows it belongs, and the latter
shall notify the owner Of the animal.
This would appear to be sensible
piece Of legislation, and il adopted in
this state would he beneficial to stock
men. The animal is required to be
branded on the neck so it would be an
easy matter to know at once where it
belongs. This would be convenience
for the assessor, also. II a question
should arise as 10 whether the animal
was owned in the county where it was
discovered, the county brand would set
tie IL.

Prom Kansas sor Texas.

AS the shipping season approaches
ranchmen controlling beeveS in any
considerable numbers are discussing
the cheapest best and most practicable
route to market. The question simply
resolves itself down to this: Does il
pay to drive to Kansas or ship from
Texas! This same question has been
raised year by year and variously set
tied. Shippers have driven many herds
to Kansas which of right ought To have
gone from Texas, but the arguments
urged in favor of Kansas are that i'm
courtesy, convenience and rates, the
Kansas roads offer inducements the
Texas roads do not consider worth
while, because they have what might
be called dead sure thing, and get the
bulk of the business anyway. Texas
roads have always made a special bust
ness OF driving certain portion of their
trade over the border and the number
OF herds crossing Texas lines bound
pOrthward are sure evidences that Tex
as rates and facilities are not yet down
to basis TO enable them to own and
control all the business their territory
affords.
The fine grass and water between
Texas and Kansas, the opportunity to
improve stock on the way, will have to
be cOunteracted by liberal concessions
before the business will stay where it
rightfully belongs, and vast sums of
money will still be carried and used in
other states that should be used to build
up the state of Texas.-Texas Live

was where it invaded the rights Of any
of his peers, and that while il is the du-
ty of the states to forbid offenses against
property and person, and punish any
infraction OF the laws, any and all at
tempts 70 pres T be drink or regulate
private matters at the arbitrary will Of
a majority. or TO make men moral by the
mandates Of legislation are not only flu
tile OF themselves, mischieveus in their
consequences, and leading to tyranny on
the one side and contempts Of law ON
the other, but they are beyond the scope
Of the power Of any government eStab-
lished by people.
Resolved, That the propriety of the
manufacture Of liquors as q drink and
food is recognized as both healthful and
needful by the human race, of whose
consumption for centuries has been con-
tinuous; that their connection with the
growth, prosperity and progress Of most
civilized and enlightened people has
passed beyond honest, intelligent con-
troversy; and is only denied By idiots
and fanatics; that as all brewers have
the same rights, neither more or less, as
any body Of men engaged in a necessary
aud beneficial industry; and that We
shall peacefully but firmly, under the
laws and by the lawful means defend
those rights, and in that defense we
confidently ask the aid and cooperation
OF all honest citizens who are interest
ed In the maintenance of good order;
the preservation of the rights of prop
erty and the freedom Of persons and in
the free enjoyment Of any innocent
pleasure which does not infringe upon
the rights of others.
Resolved, That in the future as in the
past, We shall not assume TO influence
or avert legislation by corrupt or de-
grading methods, nor shall we beg nor
buy justice, and upon the merits of our
cause shall we submit the question of
Sumptuary laws to the determination
OF the people; but we know of no code
Of political ethics which forces us to sit
as II in trance while our rights as cit
liens are invaded, our property confis-
Gated. and therefore, whenever any po-
litical party, protesting devotion to q
policy of administration for the benefit
of all, shall be for the support of band
OF ZealotS by supporting law debating
TO men their food and drink, and de-
grading them by placing their private
conduct under control of others, we
shall sever our accustomed political ties
actively and earnestly support whatever
party may sustain an equitable govern
ment for personal freedom, and we call
upon all those in our craft who are not
already affiliated to join with us, to
form local associations in connection
with ours, and aid us in the dissemina-
ton of official facts, and legitimate ar
guments, 80 that the great masses of the
people who have no selfish interests to
serve on the one side nor fanatical i'm
pulse on the other, may decide that
controversy under the light of imparti-
al judgment and common sense.
