exposure. TO guard against this
camps are established in straight
line, which marks the boundary be-
yond which cattle are not to stray.
These camps are usually for two
men, and are some fifteen or twenty
miles apart, then, in the morning,
it's two men ride out in opposite
ways, each going until he meets his
neighbor Of the next camp nearest on
that side, when he returns. In riding
over the beat each man drives any
cattle that he may meet well within
the boundary, for If the cattle once

follow them as soon as possible. Line

bones of Il Texas steer and sailing
down the meat In the horns" Is q
good one, and belongs to respecta-

sculptor, and the entire cost was

on the paragraph, to the prejudice

effect that miners are starving in

very effectual methods of conceal

THERE is likely to be considera-
BILE of wrangle over the new tariff
bill before it is finally disposed of.
1t is impossible in a country such
as ours to get up tariff bill that
will operate to the advantage of
all, because interests vary so radi-
cally not only in the different parts
but also in the same sections where
industries are diversified, the pol
icy that would be advantageous to
one proving detrimental to another.
Some interests will suffer and some
reap benefits whether it be free
trade, high protection or tariff for
revenue only that prevail. The
worst feature of the constant agi.
tation of the tariff hoo-doo is the
uncertainty as to how it is going
TO be settled, and the worse uncer.
tai"ty as to how long it is going
to remain settled. This keeps bus
mess all the time more or less un.
easy and nervous, particularly in
the east and among manufacturers
aud importers. But setting the
date OF the now laws taking effect
sufficiently far in the future, as
is proposed in the pending meas.
ure, will aid the interests affected
to adjust themselves to changed
conditions.
