With such man as Peter Smith in

ported 10y Il wise and iudiciouS l,gisla-
ture, we may reasonably expect our
state government To he handled with
care and economy, and all evildOers
to bc set aside, and all fence cutters to
be brought TO speedy justice. We all
say hurrah for Peter Smith.
For the last two or three days we
have been visited by the coldcst north

standing only four degrees above zero.
The weather has been quite dry dur

their stock all remaining healthy and
fat, but we do not know what day

know what day we may be visited by

have husbunded their interests better.
and are better prepared toprOteci their
sheep this winter han they were last

fail to makea country prosperous and
a town lively.
The wheat crop of this and adjoin-

ever known in the country before.
The small grain crop II among the
most successful crops in this country.

"A slockman of that county.
1t develops that in "a private caucus
of members of the legislature to-day, IL
was unanimously agree d that res"lu-
ton indorsing the course of Governor
ireland ia the matter of his policy IN
regard to the fence cutters was advisa-
bile, and il is very probable that 1t viii
be introduced. The outspoken and
strong commentator of Governor
Ireland by nearly all the members of
the legislature who are here, leaves
not a shadow OF a doubt that it would
pass both houses with hardly dis
senting voice.

The bill commands strong support,
and is regarded 10y its drafters a.
the best compromise policy yet
proposed. The stockmen are here
in great force, and there
was never in any country "a finer look
ing assemblage of splendid manhood.
They are here for business and not Ia
intimidute or dictate legislation, but
to aid in the solution of the Troubles
which affect all interests and imperil
all values in the state. They want no
wild or impractical legislation, but
mere conservative measures that can
be enforced against fence builders as
well as fence cutters. They will rec
ommend no law that does not 20 to
the root of the evil and correct wrongs
by whomsoever committed, but
in any event they will insist
that fence.cutting shall cease. IN re
is no acrimony in their discussions,
and the indications are that good
sense will prevail and II satisfactory
adjustment be reached. The feeling
il good, and there are no indications
of II war between the cattlemen's con
venlion and the legislature. They are
all here for the common good, and
common talk has that drift.
