intend to put in more money and make
of it one of the best ranches or stock
farms in the entire West.

wANToNLY SLAUGHTERED.
Deer and Elk Illegally Killed II Car

Special Correspondence.
RAwLINs. Feb. IA am reliably in
formed that very close to 5000 pounds of
deer and elk meat have been shipped
to the Denver, Kansas City and Omaha
markets from this point since the first day
of last October, by a resident Of Dixon,
this county. When we stop to consider
that but the hind quarters are used. it
will give an idea of the number Of ami
mails slaughtered to supply this amount.
The practice of this man is to come before
a notary and make affidavit that the anil
mails were killed either In Colorado or
Utah, while it Is a well known tact that
not one in fifty is killed outside of Carbon
county, and very often within a few miles
OF this city. Is it our game law that is
deficient, or are our county officers, who
should enforce the laws, Eeglecting their
duty? There certainly is a looseness
somewhere that should be remedied.

A DELICIOUS DESSERT.
How 1t May Be Made From Rice and
GRlafinR-

How 1T May Be Made From Rice and
GelatIne-
A delicious desert for a summer din
ner is made from rice and gelatine.
Put fourth of box of gelatine in a
quarter of cupful of water and soak it
thirty minutes Boil four tablespoon
fuls of rice in plenty OF water half an
hour, and see that the grains boil rap
idly so that they will separate When
cooked turn the rice on a coolSing-nap-
kin and roll it until free from moist
ure. Whip a pint of cream and put it
in a basin stood in pan of cracked ice.
Add to the cream two-thirds of cupful
of powdered sugar, a teaspoonful of
vanilla and four tablespoonfuls of
sherry. Sprinkle this mixture on the
rice. Put the gelatine over teakettle
Of boiling water and then strain it into
the rice. Stir continually and carefully
until partly CONCEALED, or until you find
that the rice remains on top; then turn
into mold that has been wet with cold
water. Make sauce for the pudding
by mixing a gill of water with half a
glass of currant jelly. Stir over the fire
until melted. and when ready to serve
turn the pudding from the mold and
pour the sauce over it
In DOlled rice, II you wish the grains
separate and white, you must boil rap
idly in plenty of water. The motion of
the water in hard-boiling water washes
the grains apart and an abundance of
water keeps it white and prevents burn
ing. If stirred often while boiling it
will be apt to stick to the bottom of the
vessel Do not cook rice in double
boiler unless using milk In that case
the caseine of the milk is apt to attach
itself to the bottom of single vessel.
and scorching results A test for good
rice used by an importer is to lay a

IHEN AND NOW.
The Republican Party of Early <na Nod
srn Times Confrasted-

The Republican Party of Early sna Nod
srn Times Confrasted-
The convention that Assem- bled ut
Minneapolis on Tuesday Is Substantial
~ the tenth in order since the founding
of the republican party. although the
convention that nominated Lincoln and
johnson at Baltimore in 1864 was not
called republican convention. and In
the political campaign that followed
the ticket was supported as the s.Union
National ticket" thus winning thou
sands of votes from the war democrats
that would not have been east for q
purely republican ticket.
1t Is curious to trace the history of
republican conventions from the first
that assembled in Philadelphia, June
II, 1856. when Fremont and Dayton
were nominated. down to the present
time. and contrast the men that COM
posed the party then and now. The
original republican party was not an
abolition party, and stu6iously ex-
planned that 1t had no intention to
disturb slavery in the states Its only
object was TO prevent the introduction
of slavery INTO the new territories Il
was formed from the free-soil demo-
Gratis who had supported Van Buren, in
1913 and John P. Hale in 1852, with ae-
cessions from the anti-slavery wings
who had followed the lead of Seward
and Greeley.
Among the former were Chase, Hale,
Julian, William c. Bryant, James R.
Doolittle, Lyman Trumbull. Hannibal
Hamlin, Gideon Welles and the Blair
family Among the latter, Summer,
Dayton, Collamer, Lincoln. Gid6ings,
Corwin and Charles Francis Adams.
When the convention assembled in Phil
adelphia in June. 1856. it seemed actu-
ated by the highest and noblest of hui
man impulses. and under the leaders
above mentioned, whose names are now
historic, it was destined to a great
fame. Badly organized and misunder-
stood as to its purposes, it was over
thrown in 1856. but in 1860 it again
came on the battlefield under the sam.
leaders and won the victory.
But success once won the party lost
its huge estate, and from that day to
this has gradually but surely deterio-
rated From domination by statesmen
it passed to domination by the machine;
from the leadership of Lincoln, Seward,
Chase and Sumner it fell under the
command of Quay and Plat, and Dudly
and Reed From a party actuated by
the most patriotic OF purposes it has
become a party bitter and selfish as
Moloch. On that June day thirty-six
years ago it entered the field as a chiv-
alrous knight. trusting in the righteous
ness OF its cause: to-day it comes as q
plethoric, purse-proud, sordid creature.

power of money. What 1t fought fcG
