1t is comical to see the cheek of the
founders of the town of Hazelton advo-
eating tie town as strictly temperate
one. Were it not for Hazelton's poor
whisky, it is doubtful if Mr.. Watt and
his son would have met their death so
mysteriously. A gentleman informed
us few days since that they purchased
liquor In Hazelton the last time they
visited it.

Kansas City Indicator: The suit OF
Geo. w. Thompson against the Max
we'll Land Grant and Railroad Com
pany, involving the title to about 5O0,-
600 acres Of land in what is known as
the Maxwell Grant in New Mexico,
which has been iii litigation for many
years, has been finally decided by the
supreme court Of the Territory in favor
Of Mr.. Thompson.
Ike Pryor, who came in from Dodge
on Monday, reports the drive of Texas
cattle very backward on account of high
water. Most Of the arrivals at Dodge
thus far had been already contracted.
Mr.. PRYOR reports sale Of 2, 900 2.year-
old Texas steers from Runnells to
Thomas, to be delivered at Ogallala,
Nebraska, at S20.50 per head. Holders
are asking Sl5 for yearlings but trading
10 very slow.
The condition Of range cattle promis-
es to be good, and the quality, as gen.
eral thing, better than any previous
year, from the fact so many improved
bulls have been purchased by range cat
tie owners.within the past few years.
As to the time when they will be mar
keted, every one who is acquainted with
the backwardness of the season, and
there is no one who is not, is well aware
that it will be later this year than last
year. AS to the price likely to be real
lied, that Is a question more difficult to
answer, or even TO prognosticate in re.
gard to, than either of the others. The
average prices paid, quality considered
are not likely to be lower than last year
As to the course range cattle viii take
to reach market there is nothing Il
change the route Of those for the por
tiOn of the range cattle country which
is cOnsideaed tributary here, but IL
Montana an effort is being made Il
have cattle driven from that country te
the Canadian Pacific railway, owe
which they will be shipped to Montreal
The Canadian Ministry have agreed te
a relaxation of the customs regulation
in order to bring the trade to Canadian
ports. Time will have to tell the result
of this experiment.. There is on
thing which can be said In behalf of tn
Kansas City market and that is tina
the election of Charles Francis Adams
Jr., president of the Kansas City Stool
Yards company, to the presidency o
the Union Pacific railroad bodies n
evil to the live stock interests Of thi
city.

Mt. j. G. Bryant arrived ftotii Dodge
City Friday evening, and reports the

there. Also that lots of cattle are pass

head of cattle on that market on Thurs.

having splendid season for the drive,
and all the cattle look fine.
