It seems that the stockmen of the Territory entertain differ ences of opinion in matters relat- ing to their avocat;ons and that the measurers proposed for legls- lative consideration will not be solidly supported. For instance, the smaller ranchmen claim the act asked to be passed in relation to roundup is all in the interest of the owners of large herds and would work hardships upon the more modest stock-growers, who are nnquestionably in the majori ty. It may be just as wise, after all, to ''let well enough alone" in this matter.-Prescott Miner.

Wire Fence Cutting in New
 Mexico.
 Wire cutters have destroyed ninety miles of fence in Colfax County, New Mexico, recently. It IS said the many streams are fenced for hundreds of miles, pre- venting cattle on Government lands from reaching water. Also that 300 head drifted against these fences last spring and perished of thirst. Ex-Senator Dorsey, who owns 60 miles square of wire fenced land at Palo Blanco, ad- dressed the cutters at Springer. He said if they would inform him when they proposed to commence operations on his fences he would voluntarily remove them. The cutters agreed to give him notice.

A Priest Victimized by a Jey

A sensation has been caused in Catholic circles by the announce ment that several relics brought from Rome in 1880 by Bishop Fabre, of Montreal, are not gen uine, and that he was victimized by a Jewish relic merchant. The Bishop returned with what were believed to be the bones of St. Claudias and St. Julian, which were said to have been taken from the sanctuary of St Peter and thrown into the street by the army of Victor Emmanuel in 1871, and rescued by the faithful. The bones of St. Claudius were presented to the parish of Lacb'o 3. and those of St Julian to the Church of the Convent of St. Anne. Special altars were erected for the recep- ton of the relics, and amid great pomp and ceremony they were blessed, and sanctifed parts of the bones were cremated and the dust sold to the faithful. A letter was received from Rome last week, stating that the Pope's certificate as to the identity of the remains was a forgery, and ordering the pretended relics to be immediately destroyed. This has been done. Newly Elected U. s. Senators.

PROHIBITION FOR KANSAS.

Editor Register:-It may be some

ton of the Opposition" during our
coming county campaign, but permit
ting their past action to serve as a cri-

true to herself if she takes a retrograde
step, after putting her hand to the
pillow in this manner? Rouse up, We
young democrats, and shake off the
letters that bind you to party which
has but two ideas-one how to get a
drink, the second how to get another
drink. Let it be understood that do
