A foot note in 1894 explains these
figures somewhat as follows /;
" Sheep have suffered a rather
abrupt decline in number price and,
of course, aggregate value since
January 1898, The ravages of dogs
are generally referred to by cor
respondents as one of the checks up
on the progress of this valuable in
dustry"
Now it is a calamity that just at a
time when the value of this indus
try was rapidly increasing and had
reached the highest point ever
known in our hlsty that the dogs
should suddenly become so active
and ferocious. The dogs were in
opportune, injudicious and unrea-
soning for the Democrats arranged
it so that by the Wilson bill ou
manufacturers were enabled to
buy foreign wool of some sort, un-
produceable in this country, that
would mix well with what we pro
duced and thus stimulate wool grow
ing ON our farms.
The dogs seem to have acquired
this abnormal taste for mutton just
after the passage of the new tariff
bill, and if any argument is needed
for their complete extinction it is
furnished by the fact that they de-
voured $1O,o worth Of sheep every

portraits is the motto of the Repub.

in the community, it is safe to say,
who would be seen wearing a Nc
Kinley badge of any description.
1t might possibly be used as a sub

] After = spell Of unprecedented
sultry weather, Ketchum and it.
vicinity was visited Sunday after
noon with rain and hail storm O
great severity. In fact no sucl
storm was ever witnessed here be.
fore.
During the forenoon there va.
frequent thunder and lightning with
an occasional sprinkle of rain.
About 4 O'Clock the heavens dark.
ened and a terrific roar of thunde,
rent the air followed by vivid flashes
of lightning, then a slight shove,
began to descend. Suddenly q
regular tornado set in followed by
what seemed to be q cloudburst, fol
the rain came down in . perfect tor
rent filling the streets and bywaye
in less than minutes time with q
deluge of running water fully hall
foot deep.
The storm had rather an APPALLING
aspect to the residents of this part
Of the country where the elements
were never known before to engage
in such q terrible conflict.
1t had every indication while il
lasted of q Kansas wind and rain
storm in an embryo state threaten.
ing each moment to develop in all
its fury.
Some Of our citizens who were
caught anawares far away from the
protecting shelter of the home roof
tree had narrowing experiences.
Several parties of ladies who were
out driving, attired in their most
modish summer costumes, were
completely dsluged with the rain.
Arriving home they looked like
they had just come off the mourn
er's bench at Methodist camp
meeting.
The spelling of their gowns and
hats was the most dreadful part of
their experience.
One lady concluded that she
would take q walk down the Haley
road just after the first little shower
to enjoy the delicious odor of the
new mown hay and the songs of
the little birds as they fitted through
the branches of the forest trees.
As the sky looked foreboding an
umbrella was taken along. The
result was when the umbrella was
hoisted the wind turned it wrong
side out and the victim of that af-
ternoon's stroll was carried along
towards the bank of Trail creek at
a remarkable degree of velocity
and for q moment total annihilation
was imminent.
One Of our bachelors was out in
the mountains for hunt after doves
and came near being blown into the
other world but q sheltering rock
saved him and his faithful dog,
Tim" an untimely flight from
this terrestrial globe.
The gardens around town were
considerably damaged by the hail
stones. At East Fork the storm
proved the most disastrous. A
sheet of water over six inches deep
came rushing down the hills, flood
ing whole fields of hay and grain.
Lyman Peters lost about Is acres
of hay and Stinson's alfalfa field
was completely ruined.
Major" Hong Kings vegetable
garden is 2 total wreck. He lost
about 5000 head of cabbage and
several acres of onions and potatoes.
All the ranchers on the HALEY
road sustained heavy damages to
their crops Of hay and grain.
