popular men in that city of good inten.

edy way. He can sing, dance recite, de-
liver an grafton or u stump speech, and
can play any musical instrument ever in
vented But all of these qualifications are
lost sight of in Scranton, where he is APP
preciated most for his political pull. u
They say that he Is the greatest lncreaser
of majorities in the country, and can
cause or prevent what struck the country
not long ago, political landslide.

hundred times in my llfe," he said yester-
dey, land 1t has rained each time, Does
II always rain here? No! well | didn't

you have all of 10000 people here. More
Well, ! didn't know, you know. Nobody

The Cattle Business,

The Omaha World-Herald edito
rally says: The outlook for the
cattle business is encouraging, for
the reason that the wholesale slaugh-
ter of the breeding stock of the coun-
try which has been going on for years
has measurably stopped, Farmers
and ranchmen have stopped to count
The COWS and estimate the beef sup
ply required for the next four years.
1t is foregone conclusion that at the
rate COWS have been slaughtered for
years past, and all over the country,
the producing capacity of the steer
beef is being reduced; and on the
other hand, but in the, same line of
argument, the increase in the con-
sumption of beef grows steadily.
Where is our beef supply to come
from when we cease to become pro-
ducers-a result clearly outlined to
the extraordinary effort of cattle
raisers to deplete the ranks of the
COW stock? 1t simply must result in
scarcity of beef sooner or later and
higher prices for what is consumed.
Ii we are short Of breeding stock it
will take three years before we can
produce breeding stock and receive
any benefit from them in adding to
our number.
