We have seen and conversed with ex- perienced cattlemen from every section of the county during the past week, and all report heavy loss of cattle during the past winter. No one places the es- innate below fifteen per cent, while oth- CTS claim it will reach twenty or twenty five. Such a loss clearly demonstrates that the country is over-stocked, and that the cattle raisers, one and all, should take immediate steps to rel:e .e their ranges. It will be no relief for a few to reduce their herds, while others hold theirs over. To secure the neces- sary feed to winter stock, all should sell a greater portion of their steers and all their old COWS. By doing this the loss would be reduced to next to nothing. The above applies to sheep as we'll as cattle ralsers. According to our inform ation the loss, during the past winter, was as heavy with the former as with the latter class of stock. If this is true, it is as much a duty and necessity for them to reduce their f1ocks and improve the quality as it is for the cattle raiser.

An Oklahoma Man Tells How the Backs
Settle Disputes.
John u. Miller, of Fort Reno. Okla, talks
thus in tho Globe Democrat: when you
talk about Il fight to a finish md knockout
blows, both are witnessed in the aboriginal
degree of perfection when a fight between
two Indian bucks ia seen in q ring, the cir
cumference of which is not n rope, but a
string of interested spectators. 1t ia IA fact
that among Indians of the Same tribe,
though they may number thousands.
there are few cases of q~uarrels
among them that ever result in murder.
This Is strange when it is remembered that
the Indian il passionate, uncontrolled in
his impulses, cruel und fsrocious by ma
ture. They have their difficulties and
quarrels, however,. but arbitration of the
old men prevents bloodshed or murder. Yet
once in while II fight occurs. and it ii Il novel
sight to witness. One buck challenges An
friends to the battle-ground, each buck is
stripped to the nudity 80 pleasing in high
cultured art schools among tho pRlefaces.
and made to confront tho other. Between
them lies a war club-a smooth, long piece
of hard wood, seasoned by years of service,
and regarded al a sort of mascot because of
the blood stains on 1t received during war.
"he seconds of the surly-lookinR duelists

winner picks up the club. and his

plants himself, bending his head. II 10 the
