all represent trusts. The rancbman is
at their mercy, TO remain and feed his
stock is utter ruin. II he loads them
on the cars. having unloaded them be-
cause the law directs it, and goes TO
Chicago. before IL is possible for him
to arrive there the buyers in Chicago
have been notified by their agents who
have seen the cattle in Omaha. The
man arrives with his stock and exper-
fences the same treatment. except that
he has lost money by not selling to the
Omaha buyer, who in al probability
vas an advance agent of the Chicago
trust. It is impossible TO hold his cat
tie. he finds at once that ne is in the
hands Of sharks. that the trusts are all
powerful and he sells at just such q
figure as they fix upon his years Of care,
labor and expense.
Is it any wonder that such experience
drives the cattIemen OUT Of the bust
ness and exc;tes their hatred against
trusts? It is this kind Of treatment
that has closed up more than half the
cattle ranches Of the West.

creased: that the production OF beef
cattle i'm the great West has fallen Off
ore-half. a recent conversation with
a ranchmon. reported by the Cleveland
PLAIN Dealer, developed the following
facts. showing that the trust controls
the price Of CATTLE: A man starts from
one of the western States with a train
of beef cattle; Dee brings them TO Oma-
ha and offers them for sale. A price
is made by the agent of the trust The
rarehuau is disp'eased and says it Is
robbery. lie gees to another buyer and
a less price perhaps is offered him.
