CATTLE AND SHEEP MEN F1eH'
Five Men Killed on Snow Mountain
in Oregon.

Fossil, Or, Aug. III. M. South who
arrived here yesterday from Canyon City,
brings news of a desperate battle between
sheep men and cattle men on Snow
mountain, southwest of Canyon City, in
Grant county which took place about a
week ago.
Mr.. South was at Muddy station when
the Mitchell-Antelope stage driver
brought word to Mr.. O'Neil, manager of
the Springville Sheep and Land Company,
that Mr.. Kitchen, one of the company
employees, was one of three sheep men
killed, two cattle men being also slain.
Another of the sheep men killed was
Ernest Sherer, a nephew of Joseph Sher-
er, well known wool grower and buyer.
For years young Sherer has been buying
and shipping sheep for his uncle, and on
the occasion of the battle, he with several
others, including Mr.. Kitchen, was driv-
ing band of sheep across the country to
the railroad, presumably to Huntington,
for shipment.
Many sheep fights" have been report
ed this year, which had no foundation in
fact, but the story of Mr.. South is gen.
orally credited.
There has been hard feeling for long
time between the cattle and sheep men
in that part of Oregon. Numberless dis
putes have taken place over the posses
sion and use of the ranges, the cattle
men asserting that the sheep drove the
cattle from the ranges.

KANSAS HAS A FUSION PLAN
Democrats and POpulists Will d.
vide the Nominations.

Kansas City, Aug. "A special to the
Times from Topeka, Kan, says:
Apropos to the question of fusion in
Kansas of the democrats and populists,
the democratic leaders, it is said, nave
partially mapped out a plan of action
Their state convention will be held at
Hutchinson on Tuesday next, while that
of the populists will convene at Abilene
on the following day. The Hutchinson
convention will be organized, it is said,
in the usual way and then eX-United
States Senator John Martin will intro
duce a resolution setting forth the situa-
ton, and providing for the appointment
of a committee to confer with the poDu-
lists in regard to a fusion arrangement.
The resolution will be adopted, and a
recess will be taken until the next day.
The committee will arrive at Abilene the
following morning. They will proceed to
round up the populist leaders who favor
Colonel Harris fusion plan, and urge
them to work a resolution through their
convention for a conference committee
If the conference committees adopt the
Harris plan, which provides for the nam
ing of electors by the democrats and
state officers by the populists, it is be-
lieved that the democratic convention
will adopt the report.

THE o"Nn w FAAoosh CirA
j. Slaght HOmesteaded and Has Now
Proved Up ON the TOwnsite.

Walla Walla, WASH, July 30.-A man
named ]. Slaght in the local land office
here. has proved up on a homestead in
Whitman county which is the result of a
contest which has been going on for sew
eral years.
Fifteen years ago Slaght took up a
homestead in Whitman county where Pa
louise City now stands. He lived there
the allotted time required by law, when
the Northern Pacific railroad came along
and usurped his right under it's grant.
Slaght let the matter rest until the rail-
road company had built the roed and
erected its buildings, and the town was
plated and built up, and then commenced
action in the local land Office. His con-
test was sustained, and the case was
then appealed to the general land Office,
where the decision of the local land Of
flee was affirmed. The railroad company
then appealed to the interior. department.
and recently the secretary of the depart
ment decided that Slaght was entitled to
the land, and under these instructions be
came to the city yesterday and made final
proof Slaght became jubilant over the
victory and celebrated the event by in
dulging in intoxicants. During the day lie
met gang of hoboes, who robbed him of
all his money and his return ticket to
Palouse City.

zach Party VIII Also Poll Full Vote
for IT'S own Vice Presiden-
tiaI Nominee.

San Francisco Aug. 1.-The following
fusion platform for California, adaptable
also to many other states. and approved
by Congressman Mcguire and other dem
ocratic leaders, has been submitted to
Chairmen Jones ana Butler of the nation
al democratic and populist committees
by Franklin X. Lane, formerly editor of
The Tacoma News:
5& The purpose of this plan Is to secure
the full vote of both democratic and
populist parties for Mr.. Bryan, While
allowing to each full opportunity to bring
out the party strength for It's vice presi-
Dental nominee.
California having nine votes in the
electoral college, the state committees OF
both parties should agree upon an cleo
toral ticket composed of both populists
and democrats. The number of each on
the ticket Is of little consequence. AS
there were at the last election about
half as many populist votes as demo-
cratic, the electoral ticket might be
made up Of six democrats and three pop
ulists, but the number of each, as will be
shown later, is of no Importance.
This electoral ticket of democrats and
populists shall be voted for by both par
ties on the understanding that If the
populists cast more votes in the state
than the democrats, the nine electors.
democrats, and populists, shall vote for
Watson for vice president The strength
of the two parties can be judged by their
vote on some state once on which party
lines are drawn. The only state official
voted for in California at this election
is the lieutenant governor. Let it be
agreed between the state committees
and the electors that If the democratic
vote for lieutenant governor is greater
than the populist vote for the same Of
flee, the nine electors shall vote for Bry-
ma and Sewall, or If the populists out
vote the populists, that all nine shall
vote for Bryan and Watson.

EXPEDITION TO A COLD COUNTRY
Headquarters of the AerOnauts Now
in Spitxbergen.

Stockholm, Aug. News has been re-
ceived from Spitzbergen that Professor
Andrae's balloon has been filled and was
ready to start on July q. The Virgo.
with Professor Andrae, his two compan-
ions and his apparatus on board, sailed
from Tromsoe on June 10. Since June 20
the expedition has been established in
Pixies house, in the northern half of
Spitzbergen. The stores and equipments
had already been disembarked and the
position was considered very favorable.
AS the explorer had planned that his
preparations would all be completed and
his balloon filled by the first week in
July, it seems probable that some unex-
pected obstacle has been met with in
completing the preparations.
