Harness Leather.

Heavy weight leather is in fair demand,
but all light stock is dull and slow. Light
stock is accumulating to a greater degree
than is comfortable to tanners. The slack
time of the year is here, and activity Is not
looked for by tanners until near the begin
ming of the year. Spring trade is expected
to open sooner than usual, by reason of
great crops, which will put farmers in good
condition for buving. Sole leather is dull
and hemlock is off 1ac the past two weeks.

Shoe and Leather Trade.
The following view of the situation is
from the Chicago Shoe and Leather Rericr:
The shoe and leather trades are void of
any new features to note. Business is about
There is, however, an improving tone char
acterizing shoes and leather, that is, of
ITSELF encouraging to dealers in these COM
modities, even though trade is not just now
so active as they would like to see it. In
boots and shoes the fine dry fall weather has
retarded sales and the consequent dimuni-
tion of stocks, but in spite of this fact if re-
ports say true. stocks generally are smaller
now than they have been before at this
season for many years.
Prices Of footwear, like those of leather,
are certainly very low, but Notwithstanding
this fact, buyers are showing little disposi-
tion to purchase. This would indicate some
degree of confidence on their part in the
stability of present values, and that they
are not anticipating any change in prices
soon. The manufacturers are not doing
very much just now, but there is everything
to hope for the future, Judging from the
present outlook. With low stocks in the
hands of jobbers and retailers, it leaves the
featured; and as all indications point to a
big trade in footwear for the ensuing l2
months, it would seem that manufacturers
will soon see the busiest days they have had
in a long time.

The judiciary bill was passed by the
Legislature over the veto of Governor
Routt. The Third Judicial District is
composed Of the counties of Las.Animas,
Huerfano, Prowers, Bent, Baca and Kio-
wa, and the latter county is attached to
Prowers for Judicial purposes. Under
this law, the residents of Kiowa county
will be abliged to come to Lamar on all
cases in the District Court
This will work palpable hardship
upon our sister county. The arrange
ment was made entirely without consul

without their knowledge Why it was
done We do not know, but we believe we
can see in it, the fine italian hand of the
Senator from Las Animas county,
through whose influence the district as
it now stands was constructed. The

ocratic of1ice-holders, and Mr.. Mitchell, a
Democrat, is the only one against whom
there is shadow of evidence and he has
confessed that he is guilty. Another
noticeable feature is that each of the
Republicans on reading of the indict-
ments in the papers, went promptly into
the court Of their own accord and asked
for speedy trial; while the Democrats
waited till the deputy sheriffs called on
them and made them very unwilling
prisoners. The statement in the Sparks
WAS simply another sample Of their long
established plan Of charging everything
to the Republicans, without regard to
the truthfulness OF it, and they seem to
think it is smart.

The Lamar Sparks changed hands
last week, Mr.. G. w. Butler having pur-
chased the Times -Irrigator plant and
subscription list and good will OF the
Sparks, will run Democratic paper in
Lamar. He has reduced it to the seven
column size, and has improved it con-
siderably. This is new business to him,
and we wish him more prosperity than is
usually attained in this profession. We
are pleased to note that Mr.. Joe T. Law
less continues his connection as editor,
and has decided to remain with us.
