The Chicago Times forecasts the Re
publican convention after this fashion
The ballot is the fifth, the twentieth OF
the fitch. The stalking horses, having
done their work, are sent to the stables
OF obscurity. The west has had Its in
ming. New England factory lords and
Pennsylvania iron masters come to the
front. The real undercurrent Of the con-
vention surges to the surface. The work
is done. There is but one omnipotent
all devouring tariff, and Mahomet Blaine
is his prophet.

IT HAS been officially declared by the
Democracy Of Texas that the tariff is and
prohibition is not an issue. AS the only
ants within the Democratic ranks on the
subject OF tariff reform are Daniel Nc
Gary of Houston and Brer Grice Of San
antonio, we may expect the blood-cur-
ding warwhoop Of the gentleman from
Dallas to meet with responsive echo
from the piney woods and pepper fields.

Short Range.

The Prineville Ne'cs says
while it is true that drouths are
not expected in the pastoral region
and that little or no dependence is
ever placed on the uncertain RAIN
fall of the seasons for the produc-
ton of cereal crops, it must be
said that the present season, in
cluding the late summer and early
fall months, has been exception
ally dry, and consequently more
or less discouraging to stockmen
who must of necessity depend
wholly upon desert range for the
maintenance of their focks and
herds during the coming winter.
The desert range grasses are not
only short this fall, but owing to
the long drouth, they are as dead
as they could be in mid winter.
The new and green growth, which
usually follows the September and
October rains in this country
could not occur this year as the
struggle for moisture was in vain
and the snow is now too far ad-
yanced TO harbor a hope for such
a happy change in the weather.
As a result of the shortage Of
range, sheepmen are more or less
apprehensive of the outlook, es.
pecially those who have not the
means or opportunity to provide
themselves with prepared feed fol
winter emergencies. Of course
the success of flock masters of thi:
class will depend almost wholly
upon what kind of winter viii
overtake them. fit prove to be
a very mild one, they will not suf
fer any loss to speak Of; but the
chances that must be taken in this
respect are what create dire ap
prehensions. Be the winter as i,
may, however, one thing is Ger
tain, and that is the bunch gras.
winter quarters for sheep in thi
country will be eaten and tram
pied well out of sight before tn,
advent of another spring, so shor
is the grass ON them this fall.
