RUSTLERS AND CATTLEME EN-.

1t seems that much OF the loss which
the Wyoming cattlemen have suffered
and which they have charged to the
depredations of the rustlers is really due
to severe weather which has killed off,
almost yearly, hundreds of thousand of
dollars worth of stock. The fact is. the
high plains of Wyoming are not suitable
for cattle raising. except in seasons of
exceptional mildness, and it is rather
than possible. after all, that most
of the cattle companies in that state are
bankrupt and anxious for some pretext
to explain the recent losses to eastern
stockholders. Butte Inter Mountain.
Whatever fate awaits the men who
murdered Chapman and Ray under afro
cious circumstances, and deliberately Or
ganized a party to slaughter their fellow
men by wholesale, it is safe to predict
that this occurrence will result in speed
lily terminating the range cattle business
as heretofore conducted in that section.
The issue has been forced in the most
conspicuous manner possible, and the
attention of the whole country has been
awakened to the facts. The universal
verdict will be that the grazing privi-
leges of the arid region belong to the ac-
tual settler.--Rocky Mountain News.
The equities of the case would seem to
be with the rustlers. No man can ac-
quire, by squatting on the public do
main, any rights as against bona tide
purchasers of portions of that domain
for purposes Of agriculture. Cattlemen
and sbeep-raisers can only occupy land
in public ownership by liberation and
until the land is wanted for more useful
purposes. 1t is very serious business for
one party to a land controversy to i'm
port mercenaries from another state to
carry on wal against the other party.
Americans do not take kindly to the
Hessian business. Bloody ARRAYS are
often unavoidable in contests Of title to
mines or land; but the contestant who
hires foreign m%ercenaries to do his fight
ing may be certain that he will forfeit
public sympathy San Francisco Call.

THE REcIrRoCIrY BLESSING.

II the republican high tax organs are
to be believed the reciprocity clause in
the Mckinley bill is one of the greatest
blessings that could be granted to the
people of the United States second only
to the great protection blessing itself.
Doubtless they will be able to deceive a
good many farmers with that twaddle
between now and the fall elections. Let
us see for a moment to what extent the
farmers OF the great agricultural states
are benefited by this much-lauded rec
iprocity. An examination and compare
son of our export trade in 1881 and in
1890 shows that from 1881 to 1890 the
total value of exports fell from S8S3,026,
GOO lin round numbers) to sS45,2O4,OOO.
Taking the average of the exports of the
two years to different countries it will
be found that Europe took so per cent
of our exports: the British North Amer
lean provinces 4.5G per cent; South
America, AL per cent: Mexico and the
Central American states, 2.14 per cent.
In other words Europe took nearly
twenty times as much as South America
and four times as much as the rest OF
the world. That is to say, the European
market is worth to us S0.12 per cent and
the South American market only 4.5O
per cent.
TO understand the relation of these
figures to the agricultural interests it
must be remembered that Europe takes
the agricultural product almost exclu-
sively while South America takes chief
ly the manufactured goods of the north
eastern states. The South American
states are all agricultural and their pop
ulation is less to the square mile than
ours Nearly all our exports are agri-
cultural products to Europe and under
the high tariff they decreased from 81
per cent. of the total exports in 1881 to
a per cent. in 1S9O-a falling off of
eight per cent. loss to the agricultural
interests. The decrease in agricultural
exports vas not only in per cent. but in
absolute value, being S73O,OOO,OOO in
1881. and only S729.0O0,0O0 in 1890.
In other words the policy which the
republican high-taxers wish the farmers
to endorse is the policy of less trade
with Europe for the agricultural states
and more free trade with South America
for the New England manufacturers
who wish to sell South American farm
ers their manufactured goods in en-
change for agricultural raw material at
prices lower than the same goods are
sold to the farmers.
Will the farmers of the west vote that
WAY.

THE COPPER MARKET,

The Engineering and Mining Journal
reports the following concerning the
Boston copper market for the week end
ed April 81:
In the early dealings Of the past week
there was a good degree of activity in
the copper stocks, and prices advanced
on good buying orders and the firmness
of the ingot market both here and
abroad; but the supply Of stock was more
than equal to the demand, and in conse-
quence all the advance was lost, and the
market closes with a downward tenden-
cy, and at prices generally the lowest for
the week.
Boston & Montana advanced from
S44@455s on the report that the Ana
conda mine was to be shut down, but on
the denial of the report the stock
dropped to 1921, and WIS freely offered
at the decline. There was also some ex.
pectation that a dividend would be paid
next month. but it is now stated that
there is no probability Of a dividen for
the present. Butte d Boston sold at
S15l4. but subsequently declined to SAL
on the general weakness of the market.

THERE seems to be wal in the republic
can camps. 1t Is not merely in Montana
that there is Il revolt against the efforts
of Harrison and his friends to force him
self upon the republican convention.
The party whip has been used here and
elsewhere but the result has been dis
astrous to the interests of the Harrisons
in nearly every case. The Minneapolis
journal voices the Minnesota sentiment
on this question, as follows:
1t has been determined by somebody
at Washington that there is no earthly
use of thinking or suggesting anybody
but Harrison as IA candidate before the
Minneapolis convention. Perhaps Prince
Russell is the determining power. No
body knows, however; but really, the
mandate to talk of nobody but Harrison
and to assume that the June convention
will be composed Of a group of automa-
tons, from no source the republi-
a party is bound to obey. The party
is really not under the lash. 1t still
possesses the power of contrary choice.

The nearer the tariff approaches pro-
hibitiOn the smaller the government
revenue. the greater the tan on the con
sumer. and the greater the profit of the
protected industries. The tax is paid by
the consumer at every stage of the pro-
tective game. but he pays the tax to the
government under low tariff conditions,
and the further the tariff departs from
d strictly revenue basis the greater pro-
portion Of tribute he is forced to pay the
protected manufacturer. \ tariff for
revenue only would place nearly all the
tariff tax paid by the consumer in the
general Golfers. \ protective tariff is a
species of prohibition, no matter in what
degree it is inflicted, otherwise it could
not protect. 1t therefore has a tendency
to reduce the government revenue, and
carried to it's logical conclusion would
wipe tout altogether. AS the government
must have revenue if protection were
carried out to perfection. it would be
obliged to resort to direct taxation to
raise it.

The democratic state central commit
tee will meet in this city next week for
the purpose of fixing the time and place
for holding the state convention and to
consider other matters of party policy.
One or two of our democratic contem-
poraries have expressed a fear that the
state committee will take upon itself the
task of naming the delegates and alter
nate delegates to Chicago, but the TRIB-
N doubts if such a thought ever enter
ed the mind of a single member of the
committee. Such Il procedure would be
unjust to the party of the state and in
the highest sense undemocratic. We
question if the proposition will be even
alluded to in the meeting of the commit
teemen. AS to the holding of one con-
vention in the early part of June to Sc
lect delegates to Chicago and nominate
a state ticket, that is a proposition
worthy of consideration. and it will
doubtless be carefully weighed by the
committee. There will be no hasty or
ill-advised action and the committee
will, without doubt, act with the single
view of promoting the best interests of
the party. The TRIBUNE believes these
gentlemen can be safely entrusted with
this preliminary work and that the es-
teemed Independent and Standard need
cause themselves no further worry or
alarm in the premises.

little over ii per cent. The average
rate on wooden goods imported in the
