THE CATTLE TRAIL.

The state veterinarian, DIR. Hollo-
way, was nj Cheyenne, Wyo., last
month, together with Representatives
from Arizona, New Mexico and Colo
RADIO, interviewing Gov. Barker on his
recent stock quarantine proclamation.
The proclamation which the governor
of Wyoming positively refuses to re-
scind prohibits the passage of cattle
brought into the state from south OF
the 37th parallel of north latitude and
destined for other states, through the
state of Wyoming except by rail. The
most that he would do was to say that
he would take into consideration a
proposition to define a trail for cattle
through the state from Grin junction,
the station on the Wyoming Northern
railroad where cattle destined for Mon
tana aIe unshipped.
The Billings Gazette thinks the real
reason for the stand taken by the gov
ernor of Wyoming is the fear that the
cattle will eat too much grass in their
passage through the state, and it may
be so. The Northwestern Live Stock
Journal, published at Cheyenne, does
not endorse the position taken by Gov.
Baker, and says it cannot be main
tanned, and an attempt to do so will
involve the state in legal contests last
ing for years and costing large sums of
money. The Journal favors a trail
four miles wide from Grin Junction
across the state to the Montana line.
1t further says: "Our neighbors have
made large purchases of Texas, New
Mexico and Arizona cattle in districts
where the health of the cattle is I'M
questioned and whence they have here
tofore come freely and without re-
straint, and they are entitled to some
consideration. No one questions the
right to full protection-on the other
hand no one can rightfully deny en-
trance to cattle known to be healthy.
The opening of a legal trail will be a
safe and consistent thing to do, and it
will save our people much trouble and
many dollars. Open the trail"
There is no doubt but amicable ar
engagements will be made for the drive
before many cattle reach the Wyoming
line.

Rhode Island Democrats were anx-
ious to have joint debates between Nc
Kinley and Campbell and Reed and
Cleveland, but they failed to get the
consent of their big guns first. and were
thus placed in u humiliating position.
Campbell had met Mckinley in Ohio,
and remembered the drubbing he re-
ceived. As for Cleveland, he was not
fool enough to meet Tom Reed in joint
debate. There are plenty of freshmen
in New York colleges that could down

bate. Manuscript and an encyclopedia

LITTLE RHODY ALL RIGHT.

The Republicans of Rhode Island
have fired the first gun OF the presi-
Dental campaign, and settled beyond
a doubt how that state will vote next
November. The entire Republican
state ticket is elected, with a majority
OF fourteen OF joint ballot in the legis-
lature, assuring the return OF Nelson
w. Aldrich to the United States SEN
ate. There vas more OF a fight in the
little state than many are aware OF.
Both parties labored hard for victory,
and voters were addressed by some of
the ablest speakers in the nation. A
carload OF Democratic orators were
dumped off at Providence a few days
before the campaign closed, among
them being Grover Cleveland and en-
Governor Campbell of Ohio For the
Republicans, such orators as McKin-
ley, Reed, Frye, Hawley and Horr
were on hand to tear into Uatters the
fallacies OF free trade as promulgated
by the invoice OF Democratic states
men.
OF course it was a strange proceed
ing for Democratic orators to go into
Rhode Island and talk free trade, a
state devoted almost exclusively to
manufacturing, and which owes much
to the policy OF protection, but all
these orators could nou convince the
people OF Rhode Island that it was
to their interest to surrender their
throw thousands Of artisans and
laboring men out OF employment.
The Ieople listened to what the Bour-
bon gang had to say, treated them
kindly, but voted the Republican
ticket and for the policy of protection.
