Their Removal Certain to Be Followed

CHEYENNE. Wy, April 18.-General
Brooke, at Omaha, commanding the de-
partment of the Platte, has notified Gov
ernor Barber that he had been instruct
ed by the secretary of war to deliver to
him the forty odd cattlemen now at
Fort Mckinney. No news has been re-
ceived here for the past twenty-four
hours from Johnston county and the
rustlers are supposed to have cut the
wires to Buffalo. Efforts have been
made to get dispatches through but
have failed. Governor Barber is anx-
ious to get communication with Fort
Mckinney. It Is now admitted that
the removal of the prisoners from Fort
Mckinney to Douglas would be very
hazardous, as it is certain the rustlers
will try to kill them on the way. Every
hour adds a more serious aspect to the
situation. The friends of the invading
cattlemen are sure they cannot get JUS
tice in Wyoming except in this city.
Governor Barber has not notified Gen
eral Brooke whether he will receive the
prisoners. Public sentiment is turning
in favor of the rustlers.

"WOodman Spare That Tree"

Hon. w. L. Belden of Logan county. was
before us. Commissioner Allen yesterday
as complainant in an action brought
against A. B. Goodsil for cutting timber on
government land.
Mr.. Goodsil admitted cutting a couple of
trees, but gives as a reason for so doing,
that others for years past had been doing
so, and inasmuch as they were zeal his
land, and he needed them and some one
would have taken them if he had mot, he
needing the timber for a stable at the time
he cut them down.
The trees in question are located on the
bank of a beautiful lake quite near Ma
poleon, the county seat of Logan county
and are the only ones for miles ar ound, and
it certainly is not right that they should
be thus destroyed, but Mr.. Goodsil claims
there is a little spite work in his prosecu-
ton. Commissioner Allen took the case
under a~dvisement.

Five more inhabitants arrived yesterday,

city yesterday was j. M. Edgerley, clerk of
the states prison at Bismarck. He came
down to attend the meeting Of the trans
portation committee, which was held yes
terday, for the purpose of securing cheap
er rates to the fremen's tournament in
June. Mr.. Edgerley has a "holy horror"
of reporters, but a representative of the
Argus, by doing all the talking himself,
managed to find out a few facts concern
ing the man whose revolving crime was
the gossip of the people of the northwest
during the memorable trial several months
ago. Remington is not so happy as he
used to be-" said the man from Bismarck.
HE never receives any boquets now, and
no one calls to see him. OF late he has
been swinging a buck saw. We never dis
criminate in favor OF any Of the prisoners,
and one does as much work as another; so
Joe works side by side with the man who
is sent up for a few months for stealing
chickens. He is becoming melancholy
and does not have much to say" At this
point he reporter inadvertently pulled a
note book from his pocket, and Mr.. Edger-
ley would say nc more.

For Harrison and Morton.

EDITOR TRIBUNE: All this talk about
North Dakota being a doubtful political
state if General Harrison should be re
nominated is nonsense. If he is not re-
nominated the doubt will be more apt to
spring up.
For months past we have had presidential
booms, started for big horses, fast horses
and dark horses, but they have all
weakened and died a-bornin.
If we have those who are seeking to
makes still hunt to saddle INTO the repub-
lican party a dark horse, the best and
only way to defeat such a move is for the
out spoken Harrison men to all turn ont to
the caucuses aud elect and send instructed
delegations to the county and state con-
vention. For Harrison and Morton, the
good old winning ticket of 1888.

Speculation in Lands.

Jamestown Alert: Senator Casey
thinks the next great speculative wave
that strikes this country will be in land.
Money is now seeking investment at
lower rates than ever, just as soon
as the popular mind beo IS impressed
with the idea that land is getting scarce,
an era of speculation and consequently
high prices will follow. Most specula-
ton, he claims, is not entered into with
any regard to the actual value of the
thing speculated in-all that is neces-
sary is a probability that the next sale
can be made for higher prices than the
n preceding. In town lots,eFcor in
stance, prices are paid without any ref
erence to legitimate values; the only
point involved is the profit of a subse-
quent transfer. In the case of farm land
there is a staple, steady value, always in
creasing in proportion to the population
of the country; and this fact is likely to
make the speculation in these lands far
more permanent and general than in
mines, town property, commodities, pro-
ducts, etc. It is not improbable, in the
opinion Of the senator, that this next
speculative turn will be in operation
soon, and when the country is searched
for the farm land wanted, North Dakota,
presenting the largest body Of cheap and
prodnokivo 1op1 will bo +bo ,,o,x, S,,I b.
feel the good effects of the speculative
interest. The lands of the central and
western part of the state will naturally
also be the first selected, as they are low
in present prices, and of wonderful fer
tility.

Good Roads,

Very few of the many questions agitat-
Ing the minds of the people to day are more
important than that OF public highways.
The attention paid this interesting subject
is deservedly on the increase. In the daily
p ress and magazines many pages have of
late been devoted to ways and means"
to best bring about the desired end. Splen-
did suggestions have been given and plans
laid down for the improvement, yes, per-
lection of the road. OF course, the re-
quirements of one locality may differ vast
ly from those of another, and ideas easily
carried out in M place would be quite
impracticable in others.
Every one, no matter what his calling or
vocation, is interested in and desires to see
good roads. But few states, if any and
probably no locality, can boast of better
natural roads than ours, and in conse-
quence, the expense incurred and labor
entailed in perfecting them would be less
than in less fortunate districts. There are
many reasons why good roads should be
in demand. First. From the standpoint
of comfort-comfort to the man and to the
beast. Second. Reducing the danger of
accident from broken vehicle to a mini
mum, and consequently expense.
Next, a bad road quite often necessitates
the use of another horse or team, or else
the reduction of the size of the load. Con.
slider what a saving it would be to a man
living twenty miles away and having a
thousand bushels of grain to markell
good road and a hundred bushel load and
fresh horses at the end, or a bad one and
sixty bushels and a jaded team?
Parties living along a road but a few
miles from town, and who make a trip in
almost daily for mail or supplies have
been known to go humping over stones,
much to their discomfort and to the danger
of the vehicle and horses neck, when one
hour with a pick would remove the cause.
What could be more conclusive to the
beauty of our farms and ranches than
good roads and in addition a little time
and money spent in tee culture and 9TH
erWise making them attractive would be
time we'll spent and money wisely invest
ed. A few days work at odd times and a
little trouble will add much to the attrac-
tiveness of our farms, as we'll as their
value. An article in a recent number of
Century magazine Oh the subject of roads
ought to be read by every farmer and tax
payer.
