WANT STATE HELP.
Sheep Men in Colorado Appeal
to the Governor.
They Want Their FIOcks Pro
tected Against Cattlemen.
MAY NEED TROOPS.
Cattlemen Are Determined to
Drive the Sheep Out.

DENVER, Col, May 2s.-J. c. Edwards,
the owner of 40, 900 sheep in Routt
county, appealed to Gov. Mcintyre
yesterday for protection for his prop
erty, which the cattlemen promise to
slaughter, and the question brings be-
fore the chief executive difficult sub
ject. Mr.. Edwards says he has tried
to settle the controversy amicably.
He is an old resident of Colorado and
a heavy taxpayer, and claims the
right to drive his property wherever
necessary. He wants to drive his
focks through the lower part of Routt
county until shipping point on the
Rio Grande railroad can be reached,
and has promised the cattlemen that
no damage shall be done to ranch
property. He has proposed to the
DIRECTORS that they shall select
the trail the sheep shall take,
but they have demurred, and have
called another meeting to assemble
at Mccoy, Garfield county, this week
to organize for resistance Edwards
asks the governor to attend this meet
ing and argue for moderation and
recognition of the rights of the sheep
growers.
What stand Gov. Mcintyre will take
Is a question which is causing some
speculation at the capitol. 1t is re-
garded as foregone conclusion that
the local authorities of the counties
effected will be unable to stay the
hands of the cattiemen when they
start to keep out the intruders, and if
military aid is not invoked Edwards
will have cause of legal action for
damages against the state.

Ice Does Not Always Melt at the Same
TemDerature

Under the ordinary pressure of the at
mosphere ice melts at the same tempera-
ture when the thermometer rises above
~ degrees Fahrenheit, but IL the pressure
Is increased it no longer does so. This
proposition was laid down by Prof. ]
Thomson, that an increase of pressure
tending to prevent the formation of ice
and the solidification of all substances
which expand on freezing, should lower
their melting point; and this was expert
mentally verified by Sir William Thorn
son (Qord Kelvin, who found that for
every additional 100 atmospheres of pres
sure, the melting point of fee was lowered
by degree Prof. Dewar in his lectures
last year on solids and liquids proved the
same thing. On the other hand the melt

A Free Press in France.

France, since she got rid Of
Napoleon and the Commune, has
had an almost wholly free develop.
ment Of the newspaper press, says
the Philadelphia Telegraph. Since
the law of 1881 was passed, the en-
actment OF which stillregulates the
press in France, the newspapers
have acquired nearly as much lib
erty as they have in England and
America.
1t is the governments special
effort to encourage the newspaper
business, to reduce the cost of press
kilograms on the government
wires, to free it from confiscation
or pursuit for self-defined insults
against the public authority, and
to facilitate newspaper distribu-
ton.
Everywhere in Paris are stands
for the sale Of newspapers, and IL
there are five there are five thous-
and. The boulevards are lined
with the newspaper kiosks, each
with a stock Of papers and maya
zines from Paris, the provinces and
for eign countries.
In each kiosk is a woman who is
on duty from early morning until
late at night. These little stands
are und r the direction Of the NUM-
cipality, whose aim 1t is to encour-
age newspaper circulation. The
so-called ambulant vendors also
