What a Mutton Magnate Is.

To the appellations merchants
prince, - "oil king and local baron''
the far west has added another, the
mutton magnate. Twenty years ago
vast fortunes were made i'll the cattle
raising business ON the western plains.
For various reasons that industry is not
SO profitable as it used to be.
1t has been superseded, however, by
another in which possibly for some time
TO come more wealth will be anlassed
than was the case in the palmy days of
the Texas steer. The new industry is
sheep raising. Sheep are crowding the
cattle off the range, which is growing
smaller and smaller year by year, as the
arabic land is taken up by agricultur-
lists. Bitter enmities have sprung up be-
tween the cattlemen and the sheep pio-
neers, enmities in some cases resulting
in downright battles, with shooting ac-
compartment.
Meanwhile the sheep has nibbled it's
way steadily into the former cow pas
lures. 1t will stay. 1t requires less pas
turage II can live on much less water
than the beef animal can.
Wyoming is coming to be the heart
of the great sheep raising region Of the
west. From the ne~ighborhood of Casper
alone 8, 800, 900 pounds of wool will be
shipped as the result of this years clip.
The increase of the herds and the wool
return to the sheep raiser in good SEN
son a profit Of 60 per cent. Several
sheep men, now worth $40, 900 each,
are said to have begun as herders. with
out n cent CT capital, seven years ago.
The richest Of them are called mutton
magnates' in the west. They struck it
redhot at the time when the people of
this country generally began to manifest
a growing taste for roast lamb and lamb
chops.

sidered significant in view of the rumors
that Watson may retire from the ticket.
The editorial is as follows:
s'Attempts have been made to show
that Mr.. Watson favored fusion in the
state of Indiana. This is not correct.
Watson took the position at the begin
ming of the campaign that no Populist
could consistently vote for a single
Sewall elector any more than he could
vote for Hobart elector. He filed with
Chairman Butler a written protest
against Buffers fusion policy. Butler
has ignored Watson's protest and gone
steadily forward on his own line.
.tWatson's & position is now what it was
when the Georgia state convention met.
He is for straight middle.of-the-road
ticket.
s'In no other way can the Democratic
managers be forced to abide by the st.

has been humiliating and EN- barrassing,

New ORLEANS, Oct. 2-The Times
Democrats Key West special says:
Advices from Havana state that An
tonic Maceo, in a recent attack on the
trocha, inflicted terrible losses on the
Spanish, over 1000 being killed and
wounded. The attack was made at night,
and was carefully planned. The fight
ing was general all along the line, but
fiercest near Artemiss, where Antonio
Maceo led Spanish column command
ed by General Aralas.
The Spaniards were taken completely
by surprise. They were aroused from

lets falling upon them. General Aralas
and his staff, half-clad, rushed from their
headquarters and tried to rally the Span
ish troops, who were panic stricken. It
was half an hour before a sembIance of
order could be restored in the Spanish
column, and during that time, the troops
remained huddled together.
While the attack was in progress at
Artimisa, Maceo's Iieutenants were as
saulting the trocha with equal success
on the right and left. The attack ragged
from Bahia Honda on the north to Ma
kando on the south, and at all points,
the line was demolished. Maceo could
easily have crossed it with. his entire
force, but it seems he had no such pur-
pose.

BRYAN SAFE IN COLORADO.

The Denver Republican, Of
Colorado, has this to say about
Bryan's chance in that state: "The
presidential electors chosen by
the democratic state convention Of
Colorado have now been indorsed
by the silver republican state con-
vention, the populist state con-
vention, and the national silver
party. fa full vote is polled in
the state in November it will
amount to 100000 in all proba-
bility. Allowing that the Nc
Kinley electors will poll 10000
votes, which we regard as high
estimate, and that the prohibi-
tionists and the "middle-ofthe-
road" populists will poll 10000
more, this would give Bryan. and
free coinage a majority over Nc,
Kinley and the single gold stan
dard Of 10000, and a clear ma.
iority over all opposition Of 140,
900.

lows:
"My Comrades: The cup of
wrath is full. In these two
terrible years, when the massa-
ere of the innocent has gone
under the eyes of our paralyzed
rulers in Christian lands, we
have thought that men alone
could help. But it is women
who are dying two deaths in
the blood East, and we, their
sisters cannot longer wait. You
have nobly responded TO my
earlier appeal, and in the name
Of Christianity and humanity
of the home against the harem,
l earnestly and tenderly call
upon you to organize meetings
in every locality, urging our
government to cooperate with
England in putting a stop to
massacres, and giving protec-
tion henceforth to Armenian
homes. Let these be meetings
addressed by the pastors, the bu-
siness men and the most capable
women. Let money be raised
by systematic visitation as well
as by collection, and forwarded
to our National Treasurer, Mrs.
Helen NJ. Barker, the Women's
Temple, Chicago.
"And may God deal with us
at last as we deal with oui
Armenian brothers and sisters
and their little ones, in this
hour of the overwhelming ca.
lamity."

that prosperity is here. The

South IS finding a market in the

the absence Of feyerish specula-
ton. Industry is picking up
steadily, rapidly, in response to a
Legitimate demand inspired by re-

prosperity is sorud money; good
