THE Land Board records do not show
that a single acre of land has been leased
in Mitchell county. The Colorado Clip
per, published at that seat, is rampant
for free grass, and says herds of cattle
are being driven out of the State be-
cause of the lease law. 1t is pretty Ger.
tain they don't go from Mitchell county.
BY the way, if cattlemcn won't lease the
lands, and actual settlers are not NOV
ing to that county, it must be very
poor agricultural district. Free grass
won't improve the quality of the lands.
Is not the Clipper doing more to prevent
immigration to that city and county
than all other elements combined?

whilom citizen of Dallas, but now resi-

yesterday. The Captain speaks in glow
ing terms OF the Falls and the whole
section Of country Of which it is the
centre. He says the large cattle men are
largely in the minority in Wichita
county and that majority of the resi-
dents there are opposed to the free-grass
folly, Notwithstanding the assertions of
the organs to the contrary. The Captain
is a gentleman OF intelligence, a close
observer of opinions and events, and of
undoubted integrity. His statement is
worth more than all the vaporngs of in
terested papers. He says the county is
almost solid for IRELAND and GIBBS.
