A sheep war has beef started in Lar
annie county; indeed right at our very
doors says the Cheyenne Tribune.
Monday afternoon there was a prelimi-
nary skirmish on Bear creek, in which
abouD 20 shots were fired, but the only
damage done was to Albert Bristol's
brooches. the seat of which was per
forat"I by a rife ball.
Two horsemen dashed into the city
a 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon and
drew rein in front of Justice Glafcke's
office on Ferguson street. The horses
were wet with foam and their riders
covered with duSt. plainly showing
that both had come a long distance in
a short space of time. The new arriv-
ais were \. W. Bristol and son, Albert.
shetpmen, residing 40 miles north of
this city on Bear creek. After hitching
their horses, the two men entered the
narrow confines of the little court room
and there told a narrowing tale of the
plotting and Vaccinations of a neigh
boring ranchman. |. n. Bard. by name.
The story with all its thrilling per
tons is about as follows:
l.. n. Bard conducts a cattle ranch
about 80 miles north of this city and
seven miles south of the Bristol ranch.
Mr.. Bard's cattle range runs north
ward for several miles in the direction
CT the Bristol properly. The land i'm
mediately adjoining the ~latter's prop
erty, is government land. but was
fenced in some years ago by Mr.. Bard
as a range for his cattle. The Bristols.
it seems. thought Bard had no more
right to the land than they and con-
cluded to pasture their sheep thereon.
as the paSturage is excellent, especially
to this proceeding and. it is understood.
warned the trespasSers off his domain
His warnings were net needed. it
seems. for Monday. Albert Bristol, jr.,
who is about 10 years of age. accom-
panied by a herder. drove a large band
of sheep into the pasture. Mr.. Bard
again demonstrated. A quarrel fol-
lowed, and young Bristol. just to
brighten his neighbor. drew his gun
and fired a shot over Mr.. Bard's head.
The latter was already mad and the
shot only added fuel to the flames. He
went to his ranch. procured his Win
chester and returned to the scene of
the battle.
Mr.. Bard opened fire upon young
Bristol. his herder and the band of
sheep. but his aim was bad, one ball
only passing near the two men and
that pierced the seat OF young Bristol's
brooches. This ball. although it did
in a short time Mr.. Bard was master of
the situation. the Bristol's being COM
pletely routed.
Mr.. Bristol and his son made COM
plant against their neighbor yester-
day, but before any arrests are made
County Attorney Baird will investigate
the case thoroughly.
Mr.. Bard has resided in his present
location for the past 20 years and while
he has had several quarrels with neigh
bors. he has always beef regarded as
a good citizen and an industrious man.
The Bristols have resided on Bear
creek for the past Is years and like Mr..
Bard have had numerous quarrels over
the right of grazing lands.
The outcome of the Bear creek sheep
war will be watched with interest and
unless steps are taken at once toward
a settlement of the difficulties. more
trouble will surely follow.

wealth were necessarily possessed Of large
ability and understanding. The develop
mept and upbuilding of gigantic enter
prises is vastly more potent force in the
broadening of character than the manage
ment of that which has already been cre-
ated. The man who amasses knows under
what obligations to humanity he has
placed himself; he who merely inherits
has uncommon wisdom if he discover in
his character that which the exigencies
of his life have neither created nor de-
veloped.
If there are those who regard this as
an apology for the rich young men who
have not made the most of their wealth
for the public good, it must be deemed
misfortune that the necessity for such an
apology exists. There are other young
men besides Mr.. Phelan who have shown
an appreciation of their responsibility as
well as their power, and they should be
reserved from this estimate. But there
are yet opportunities for the profitable ex-
ercise of their activity, and those who best
and soonest show their appreciation of the
fact will the more quickly impress the
community with their value as citizens.
