Profits of Feeding Sheep.

A correspondent of The Rocky Mount ain Husbandman, speaking of the ad- yantages of sheep over cattle on the western ranges, says: It is noted fact that there is far less alarm over the pros pect of short winter feed among sheep owners than any other class of stockman. The reason of this is that sheep thrive on very short feed, and when there are any points bare along the foothills flocks may be kept fairly well, even if the grass has been closely grazed in the summer.
 It is also a fact that it is possible to keep three or four thousand sheep on hay about as easy as to keep 80 many hundred cattle. Sheep do not seem to consume food in proportion to cattle, This is probably due to the fact that they are kept constantly rustling for them selves throughout each day, except when t is stOrining, while cattle having no herder are inclined to lay around the premises and not go out to feed, even in pleasant weather. Sheep arc better adapted to the exhausted condition of Onr ranges by far than cattle.

When the beast came to himself he nearly kicked his hind quarters off in the attempt to get rid of the shoes, but 1t was no go. Science was too much for brute force

Foliette's Sensational Statement I'm

MILWAUKEE. Oct 3o.-The charge of
attempted bribery in the treasury cases,
brought by Mr.. La Toilette against

Senator Sawyer, in statement over

the impropriety of such n course.
The senator declares he had no idea

Parnellite- McCarthyite rioting. There
are now nihety-two patients in the

This number, of course, is

wounded and who are being treated at

MCKINLEY NOMINATED.
The Columbus Convention Nominates
Mckinley for Governor Amid the
Widest Enthusiasm.
Slavin Makes Kilrain Weary in Nine
Rounds---Parnell to Pay $500 as
Costs in the Divorce Suit.

COLUMBUS, Ohio, June 1.-THE second
day of the republican state convention
opened with prayer, after which the re-
port OF the committee on credentials was
presented and adopted.
The committee on permanent organi-
zation reported the name of General
Bushnell for permanent chairman.
The convention nomination was then
declared in order and Ex-Governor
Foraker rose to present the name of
William Mckinley for governor.
When he appeared the delegates fairly
went wild with enthusiasm. He said !:
sin part this contest upon which we
are about to enter is in some respects of
unusual character. The contest involves
more than the governorship of Ohio. 1t
reaches into the national politics of the
United States. A senator will depend
upon its result. 1t will also determine
whether Ohio is to go into the great
national contest of 1892 at the head of
republican or democratic column. (Ap-
piause.) We are proud of that eonserva-
tive, patriotic man, General Harrison,
who sits in the white house. (Applause)
We are proud too of that brilliant, mag
netic statesman who has taught law to
Europe with respect to America, James
G. Blaine" prolonged cheers with hat
tossing and fan waving for over t.
minute.l
Foraker moved that the rules be sus-
pended and Mckinley be nominated by
acclamation. The motion prevailed
unanimously amid the widest cheering
and waving of hats. Mckinley was
then presented to the convention as the
next governor of'Ohio.'
Mckinley made stirring speech
thanking the convention for the honor
OF the nomination.
Senator Sherman was then called for
and spoke in eulogy of the republican
party and the Mckinley bill.
The committee ON resolutions then re-
ported the platform which was adopted.
Andrew L. Harris of Preble COUNTY.
was nominated for lieutenant governor
on the first ballot.
