WOLVES In SLEEPS CLOTHING.

TWO SANITY : Looking ~SwtndIers
Getting Money Under False Pre-
tenses.
Saturday, says the Winnemucca Silver
State, two gentlemen in semi-clerical garb
arrived here from the West and repre-
sented themselves as being authorized 10
to collect funds with which to build q
Catholic Church in Ireland. They sue
ceeded in collecting about $50 before they
were suspected of being "bilks." When
asked if they had credentials or papers of
any kind to show that they we're not frauds,
they made some tiimsy excuse and de-
camped on the express train East yester-
day. There was some talk of arresting
them for obtaining money under false pre-
lenses, but they were permitted to depart
unmolested.
The following circular, which appears
In the San Francisco Monitor, was what
created suspicion in the minds OF those
who we're duped.
Please announce from the alter next
Sunday that we have reason to belive that

Brother Jerome and Brother Aloysius are

The Texas Livestock Journal di.-
cussiong the effect OF the recent legisla-
ton In that state on the cattle business
has this to say:
We cannot estimate the fun effect
now or look far enough into futuritv 10
determine with any degree Of accuracy
the bearing the changes in range hand
ling Of cattle that will result from the
action Of the legislature and land board
In their efforts to enhance the value of
school and asylum lands and the re-
naming public domain. That their eff
forts have been praiseworthy many adj
NIT, that they will fail TO accomplish
their object In getting as much as eight
cents per acre for dry and twenty cents
per acre for watered grazing land, but
few viii deny. The action of the state
land board, whether intending it or not.
Is virtually leaving open and Unbiased
the best area Of the northern part of the
state TO the free use OF the stOckmen.
They have placed the price so high and
terms 50 short that the result will be
that all ranch land owned by individu-
ais and corporations will he secured by
lease or purchase before the state lands
will be taken, and as the law now
stands. All the state lands can be graz
ed on II the owners OF stock do not herd
or hold their stock or establish line rid
eD upon school land. Stockmen will
not complain for having TO pay nothing
for land they would cbeerfully have
leased IT FIVE cents on ten year's time.

but would not even pay that price,
much less eight and twenty cents for
six years. The purchase of old surveys
of large bodies Of railroad lands, and Of
the school, asylum and fifty cent lOca-
tons Of 80 and 81, will be made from
two to three dollars per acre. Many of
these lands are well watered and better
suited for ranches than the school lands
now held at eight and twenty cents per
acre, and from the present outlook it
seems the action of the land board TAX
en- in connection with the laws of the
recent legislature is destined to prove
Of vast benefit to individual land owners
and Of little worth to the school or asy-
lum lands. Stock growing in the Pan
handle will continue, and its cost will
not be increased by the action Of the
land board that virtually takes off the
lands from market, not only for sale,
but by high prices forbid leasing, and
few men will be found paying twenty
cents per acre for the use of a watered
section six years, when they can buy
equally as desirable land at So per acre
and have the use for all time. Verify
the state is unfortunate in its land de-
partment. Spectators and sharks have
good time in realizing profits by the
aid of land board which is doing worse
than did the legislature.

near Yates Center, the county seat of

cattlemen and citizens of the state of
Kansas has been called, to meet in this

Missouri is considerably worked up

capital from other states cannot be
loaned there unless the parties who con-
troll the capital comply with the state
laws In taking out license as brokers or
money lenders. 1t is declared that the
decision will drive millions of dollars of
capital out Of the state, seriously retard
the vast manufacturing interests, Grip
pie industries Of every description and
in many cases financially ruin many
farmers who have been borrowing this
