San Francisco Excited.

Public feeling in San Francisco has
been aroused to the highest pitch by
the recent dastardly murder of Mamie
Kelly, the schoolgirl shot down in the
street by young Goldenson. On Sat-
urday crowds of people visited the
residence of the parents of the muir
dered child, and the dwelling of the
Goldenson family, near by, was attack
ed by the indignant pepulace. The
murderer's sign was torn down, as was
also that of his brother, cigar dealer,
and the front of the building otherwise
dcfaced. The excited crowd would
probably have demolished the build
ing had it not been for the timely in
PREVENTION of the police.

people were present, was addressed bv

That there s an irrepressibls conflict
between the cattle and sheep interests
in Nevada there IL no denying, and
that both parties are to blame for this
state of affairs is equally true. That
shsepmen have the same right on the
public domain with cattlshen il so
evident that il admits of no discussion
But the latter claim that sheep ruin
the ranges wherever they go, and call
for protection by State law against
sheep. On this subject the Reno
Gazette prints letter moro than two
columns long from W. II. Mills, Land
Agent of the Central Pacific railroad,
in reply to enc from Allen c. Bragg.
soliciting M opinion concerning the
propriety Of securing at the hands ef
the Legislature Of the State of Nevada.
at the coming session, Legislation in
tended to project the grazing ranges
of Nevada from the rowing bands of
sheep and goats, which, under the pre-
text Of seeking Rcw ranges, are driven
over the grazing ranges of the State
utterly "blitcrating VII the feed in their
track, t" the injury and oftimes de
struction of such ranges for cattle
purposes.
Mr.. Mills discusses the question of
free range and herdsmaa's rights,
though not in very liberal manner.
He has evidently had no experience in
the matter under discussion outside of
the railrord Office, yet We confess that
he makes fair showing from his own
peculiar standpoint, little selfish
though it be. All through the south
err portion of this State the sheep
nuisance Is increasing every season,
and never year passes that it does
not cause the loss of one or more lives.
II is not only the fact that sheep de-
stroy pasturage on ell land they pass
over which causes trouble, but they
are nuisance otherwise. Their herd
ers seem 10 think that farmer has nc
rights which he should not Immediately
relinquish when band Of sheep heaves
in sight from the other side of the
mountains. They will scent vege-
table patch q mile away and troop
down upon it and denude it of every
green thing, in spite of fences or other
obstacles, while the farmer can emily
survey the devastation ct safe distance
for. ten chances to one, if he protests
he will get bullet in the groin oil
some ether portion of his anatomy.
Every season large bands of sheep
cross the mountains from California
paying no taxes on either side, and
take possession Of pasture land which
should be rightfully occupied by Ne.
vada herdsman who do pay taxes. II
county officials were empowered by
law to assess, levy and collect per
