cuiberson's Bln

WASHINGTON, Aug. s.-Mr. Culber-
son win introduce a bill or some ono
will in his behalf which will provide
for the repeal Of the purchasing clause
of the Sherman act, and will also pro-
vide for the coinage Of silver without
charge for mintage at ratio Of 10 to
1. The bill, It Is understood, in its
wording win follow as closely as may
be section Z of the Democratic plat
form Of 1899, which favors the coinage
Of both gold and silver without dis
eliminating against either metal or
charge for mintage, but the dollar
unit Of the coinage Of both metals
must be Of equal intrinsic and unchang-
able value, or be adjusted through in
ternational agreement or by such safe
guards OF legislation as shall insure the
maintenance of the parity of the two
metals and equal power Of every dollar
at all times in the markets and pay
ments Of debts BY this means it ID
thought that Democratic opponents Of
the bill thus framed will put in the at.
titude before the country Of opposing
their own platform.

Cattle Notes.

The value Of the western cattle
is estimated at s2,0OO,OOO,0OO, or
FIVE times that of all the cattle in
Australia.
In some of the slaughter houses
in Scotland cattle are stunned by
electricity before they are killed.
This is done in order to make
death painless.
1t costs less to raise three 1000
pound steers than two 1,500 pound
ones, and you will get a greater
profit in less time. The market
would rather have good two-year-
olds than four-year-olds.
Stock Growers Journal: En-
thusiastic horsemen see in the rec
ord of the cowboy race to the
Worlds Fair the opening of new
branch of commerce. These horses
which have shown that they are
fitted for long hard journeys, arc
the product of western plains
where the horse must range for a
living on bunch grass. They are
of good blood and their rearing
makes them tough. Plainsmen say
that the record has been in the
nature of an exhibit which will
make the western horse the great
horse of the world.
Heavy rains have fallen at de-
lightfully short intervals through
out the entire County during the
past two or three weeks, and the
hills as far as the eye can reach,
here, there and everywhere are
covered with waving grass. Old
cattlemen interviewed by the Adj
vocate reporter declare that they
have never seen anything better
in this section and that if the rainy
season extends through the pres
ent month as it should, the grass
growth will exceed that of all pre-
vious years. In places the grass
is half q foot high and going to
seed, which latter fact tickles the
stockman most as it promises a
thicker growth and more solid and
permanent sod. Cattle in Sierra
county, what remains of them aft
er the severe drouth, are certainly
at present in clover and will go
through the coming winter with
out the loss of a single head
Sierra County Advocate.
One of the pronounced recent
departures in the agricultural in
dustry of the northwest is a change
from exclusive grain growing to
mixed industry, in which live stock
and dairying are prominent featurs.
In Minnesota special attention thus
far has been given to horses cattle
and hogs, but in Montana and Da-
kota's sheep are arousing the most
notable interest. In Montana
the sheep Aocks have multiplied
tenfold in 10 years and in 1891
number over 2,8O0OO0 animals.
The sheep industry Of Montana
represents a capital of S2O,00O,0O0
and brings in revenue of nearly
lS2,50000O from wool alone. Mon
tana wool has in a brief period at
tanned national reputation, North
Dakota is recent convert to the
sheep industry, but already
has more sheep than all other
domestic animals combined, and
the industry Is rapidly growing in
popular favor as in prohtableness.

An interview with colonist named Da-
Wis in reference to the Matabele raid at
Fort Victoria and alleged atrocities COM
mitted by the British in South Africa was
recently published in the Pretoria Press.
Davis is well known In Natal and in the
Congo Free State. He went to Mashona-
land in January last, hoping to make .
fortune in farming and other pursuits. but
becoming disgusted he abandoned his prop
erty and returned to Pretoria in Septem-
ber. In reference to the Matabele raid at
Fort Victoria, Davis declared that the
yarns about Mashonas being assegaied In
the streets were unfounded.
The Impi. he said, never entered the
town, but DIR. Jameson summoned the
Matabele head men, who Were deferential.
while DR. Jameson himself brusQuely gave
belle border, thirty miles distant Davis
thus describes the pursuit:
I'VE overlook the Impi seven miles from
Victoria. They were going at jog trot.
Many were unmounted. DR.. Jameson I'm
mediately ordered us to fire. Our men were
mad and shot down the Matabele like rab-
bits, pottinE indiscriminately at the dead,
dying and wounded.
twenty-five of the Matabele were killed
Each body contained enough bullets to kin
q dozen. The Matabele never turned when
we opened fire on them. Only one. an old
man, fired a return shot and he was imme-
diately Drained. Another Matabele was
smashed by the blow. II was sickening
work, yet on returning to Fort Victoria

swEDENs COUNTER MOVE.
May Join the Drefbund as Offset tc
Franco-RussianA Alliance.


Great interest is excited at Christiania
Norway, by the publication Of a letter from
the Norwegian novelist and poet, Biorsen,
in which he says IT Is undeniable that Swe-
den continues arming on a large scale and
that 1t is therefore useless to deny that
that country intends to side with the triple
alliance in the event of war. Therefore
the writer adds, Sweden refuses Norway s
desire for a separate foreign department
The significance of this letter is impor-
tant when read in connection with recent
utterances of German and Austrian papers,
which have intimated that the Franco
Russian fetes will be damped by some dem
onstrations on the other side. which will
show that the international balance of
power has enough additional weight at dis
posai to neutralize the effect of the Franco
Russian league.
One report published in a Vienna news
paper said that the recent visit of Prince
Leopold Frederick of Prussia to the Swed-
ish court was really connected with nego-
tia tions with a view to Sweden joining the
triple alliance King Oscar, 1t was asserted
had been really alarmed by the separatist
movement in Norway, for this had been
traced more or less to Russian influence
Only lately the Russian press urged that
Norwegian port ought to be acquired"
by the Russians as a coaling station for
their Baltic fleet. The Vienna paper added
that the apprehensions of King oscar
found a ready ear in Germany. especially
since the cars speech at Libau. and
further negotiations are now proceeding In
earnest"
