TO STOCK r.

The annual reunion OF the Montana
stockgrowers and their railroad friends
from the east at Miles City. is an occas-
ion that is always productive OF much
pleasure to the residents of this city
and. we trust. proportionately so to our
guests. On each of these occasions We
have very nearly the same people as
guests. and each year brings about a
better acquaintance. so that it now hap
pens that the stock meeting" is in
many respects a picnic. To be sure the
stockmen meet at the court house and
with a gravity becoming the magnitude
of the business interest represented
discuss the details of their business. ar
range the round-ups, and in due time
call up the representatives of the differ
ent railroads, who with charming in
declare their desire TO
crafty the stockmen in all things per-
tanning to the carrying of stock to mar
ket. and that they only prevented from
carrying the stuff dead-head. 10y the in
exorable demands Of the operating de-
partment.
' But this year their are one or two top
les that should be vigorously ana ex-
haustively discussed. First and for
most in every respect is the wolf ques-
ton. formerly an annoyance, and now a
calmity that rivals IN its disastrous
effects. a hard winter. On this topic
experiences should be freely exchanged
and expedients for relief exclusively
discussed. for if the plague is allowed
to increase in the future as il has in the
recent past. the most experienced a
agement and the most favorable mark
cts cannot bring a balance on the right
side Of the ledger. 1t was and is unfor-
tunate that faulty legislation and the
low ebb of state finances. operated to
make the pursit e~nphoniously termed
-wolfing" an Improbable n for the
past two winters. as a result of which
the wolves have so increased in numbers
as TO almost dispute the right Of way
with nan on the range. and levy an in
creasing and disastrous tribute or the
herds of cattlemen hcrsemen and sheep
men alike. The admonItion TO trust
in God but keep your powder dry" is
peculiarly applicable to this case. 1t is
well enough TO pray TO the Legislature
for a more favorable bounty law. but IN
the meantime every outfit should see
that they have a proper number of wolf
pelts hanging on the fence.
The other matter which should find
some consideration at this meeting is
the question whether or not there is any
thing in the working up of superan.
nuated or low grade horses into horse
beef for foreign consumption. We
read so much now of the horse abbatoirs
in the east that are actively engaged in
turning out this product, that the sug.
gestion is naturally developed that il
the butchers pay anything reasonable
for horses, such a disposition of them
would benefit the breeders In a double
sense. By permitting them to realize
something on their investment now. and
by 50 ~lessenlng the supply hat really
good horses might find a good market
in the near future.
With these two suggestive topics
preached. We leave the convention to its
work. extending meanwhile the whole
welcome that Miles City always
gives TO the strangers within her gates.

She says that II Masonry IL good for men IL
fs much better for women. as they are more
nesdful OF protection than men, She adds that
