Last Session.

days session of the National Cattlemen's

resolutions, with reference to the arid
land lying between the 9Sth meridian and
the Sierra Nevada mountains, urging a
memorial to Congress for legislation per
hitting cattle men to lease the land in
tracts of suitable size for grazing. The
preamble and resolutions set forth that
under existing laws the tenure of ranch
men in that section cannot be made secure,
hence ranchmen are not safe in proceed
ing with Improvements which would re-
suit in doubling and trebling the wealth
of the cattle interests, as it is not safe 10
sink wealth to build reservoirs or take
other steps to redeem the lands from use
l~essness. 1t is not proposed to disturb
the existing homestead and %preemption
laws, but to reserve all rights to the set
tiers under these laws. 1t is proposed,
however, to except California, Nevada
and Oregon from the provisions of the
proposed act.
Judge Wallace, of Colorado, of the
same committee, presented n minority re-
port opposing the resolutions as a meas
ure in the interest of large owner to the
prejudice of the small and one that would
work a substantial repeal of the home
stead laws.
The majority report was then adopted
by a large majority.
An amendment was then passed by
which the Territories of Idaho and Utah
are also exempted from the provisions of
the resolutions.
A resolution was introduced by MIR.
Rainwater, of Missouri, urging that the
Bureau of Animal Industry be put under
the charge of expert veterinarians.
Adopted.

A fellow, who evidently belongs to the
fraternity of sneak thieves, stole an over
coat from Mr.. Fitzgerald yesterday and
escaped. Fitzgerald is a cripple and is a
Waterman at the Union Pacific yards.
The thief stole the coat from the Key City
House and was wearing it when Mr.. Fitz-
gexald saw him with the garment. The
thief entered the tank house, Fitzgerald
followed him and demanded the coat.
The fellow refused to surrender it, but a
number Of railroad men came in at an
opportune moment, and he gave up the
coal. The men permitted the fellow to
escape, but telephoned the particulars to
the Sheriff. Office. Deputy Sheriff Hos
ford and Officer Sullivan searched for the
thief for some time, but he had secreted
himself before they were notified, and so
was not found.

A Barrister.

LONDON, November 22.-The action for
libel brought by F. NJ. Adams, barrister.
against Bernard Coleridge, was resumed
to-day. Adams continued his opening
remarks. He said he had much affection
for Miss Coleridge. but he had no thought
of marrying her. Attorney General
James, submitted the plaintiff had no
u and must be non-suited. The Judge
ruled that Bernard letter was a privil-
eyed communication. and Adams in order
to maintain his case must prove express
malice or dishonesty on the part of Ber-
nard. He decided to leave the case to the
jury, reserving to himself, however, the
right of decided action on the point of
law in the case. A verdict was not war
ranted by the evidence.
Adams continued his statements and
said he and Miss Coleridge were now re-
solved to get married. The case was sub
mitted to the jury who, after some delib-
Grafton, brought in a verdict for the
plaintiff of $4,000 damages. The Judge
overruled the verdict and gave a verdict
for Coleridge with costs.

SENSIBLE YOUNG LADIES.
They Organize a Campaign Against
Tobacco Chewers.

From the Philadelphia News.
Thirteen charming young women OF
Newark, N. j., have organized Il cam
paign against young men who chew to-
bacco. Miss MolIie Carelton is m of
the prime movers in the cause. She is a
blonde of medium height, with luscious
crimson lips, languishing blue eyes and
winsome face. Talking about the crusade,
she said: 1--WE all like to go to balls and
social gatherings, and to have real nice
young men as partners in a set. But how
horrid it is to discover, when you are
swinging with a partner, that his teeth
are discolored with tobacco juice, and
that his breath is tainted with the
nasty stuff. UGH l shudder when |
think of it. 1 do not object to a young
man smoking a cigar, if it is a good n
and not too strong, or if he takes a Whit
at a delicate cigarette in a promenade.
That is genteel dissipation, but to fill ones
mouth with filthy tobacco, and then kiss
the pure lips of a woman is-is-oh, /
can't find words to express my horror.
Miss Gertie Fenner, a piquant little
brunette, whose sparkling black eyes APP
peared to emit sparks of electric fire, here
came to the relief of the fair orator. She
said that she had three different young
men, who were all nice looking, kiss her,
while their breath ''smelled of thai
awfully, awfully nasty tobacco" For
over a week thereafter she was continually
rubbing her lips with a handkerchief TO
wipe off the faint of the tobacco-stained
kisses. She would never, 10 never, 7"
associate again with a young man who
''chawed the weed"

THE COUNTRY'S SAFE.
Cleveland's Common Sense Talk
to an Interviewer.
A Conservative Course to Pro-

Hendricks In Danger of Be-
ing Killed with Kindness.
clearheaded Cleveland.

BosToN, November 22.-In the course
Of an interview with the representative of
a Boston paper to-day P~resident-elect
Cleveland, speaking of the business and
manufacturing interests of the country
and the effect of a change in the admins
tration on these interests, said: 1T goes
without saying that the Democratic party
is made up of merchants, business men
and working men, and everybody certainly
desires good times and realizes that all
people must be prosperous to ensure
that result. We have $4,000, 900 peo-
pie, almost boundless resources, hundreds
of the strongest financial institutions in
the world, thousands of enterprising mer-
chants, most skillful manufacturers, and
the most intelligent farmers and working
men on the face of the earth. Now,
surely a country with these characteristics
has every qualification for solid, perma-
nent prosperity. 1t will be my aim, and
the aim Of all associated with me in the
conduct Of the affairs at Washington, to
give the people of the United States a
safe, economical and conservative Govern
ment. The fact that's many business men
and manufacturers and w~orkingmen voted
with the Democrats this election shows
they were not afraid of a change in the
administration. The Democratic party, in
its Chicago platform, meant what it said,
and said what it meant, and will carry the
provisions of that platform which relate to
the business interests of the country into
effect. The most important thing is the
restoration of confidence and the determi-
nation to forget partisan heat and excite
ment and devote our lives to things which
tend to the substantial welfare of the
country and all of its people. In this
work every man should feel that he has a
part to perform"

ment it has been the most remarkable
ever fought for the Presidency"
After Ohio, what did you think?'
