NEWS OF THE WEST.

Austin Reveille: The legislature OF
1897 passed a law authorizing the COM
missioners to grant permits TO kill wild,
unbranded horses, mares or colts. over
the age of u months. found running at
large on any of the government range
lands of the state of Nevada. The law
also authorizes the commissioners TO
revoke the permits so granted at any
time
The intention of the legislature was
good. as there are thousands of wild.
unbranded horses, over one year old,
running at large on the government
range lands of Nevada, and could they
be exterminated in a lawful way, ii
would be of great benefit.
By reason of the law. there are now
many persons killing horses who have
no permits. and in pursuit of the wild,
unbranded horses on government range
lands. many gentle, branded horses now
on government range lands, that the
owners value and have use for, are be
ing slaughtered right and left, and the
Indians horses are being eXtermlnated-
One man we know of has about $4,000
invested in fine horses. Another over
1000, and several with from $4,000 10
81 eco. One man has colts running out
that cost him $40 for the get, and an
other purchased a stallion and two
mares not long ago, and paid $500 Tor
them, and they are all gone. In a recent
lot there were found 26 branded hides
belonging to II different persons, none
of whom had authorized the killing OF
their horses. If one man has killed 70
horses belonging to other people, all
of those engaged in killing must have
killed very many.
1t is as much against the law now TO
kill a horse as il ever was, and II the
signs do not change, many people VIII
wish they had never killed a horse.

st. Louis, Feb. S.-Almost the entire
of League of American Wheelmen has
arrived, and tonight the parlors of the
Southern hotel are thronged with
wheelmen. The only meeting of the
evening was that of the chief consuls
for the purpose of discussing the best
methods of recruiting new members
and keeping up the membership by
renewals.
The principal subject of discussion
among the delegates is the political
situation and the probable result of
the election. On all sides it is admitted
that the prospects for the reelection
of President Potter and the carrying
through of the entire ticket are excel
lent, but at the same time it is also
admitted that there is a spirit of OPP
position in the air which cannot be
located. 1t is stated that 200 votes
have been pledged to Mr.. Potter and
his ticket, and only III are required
for election. No opponents have as yet
been announced.
Tomorrow will be wholly devoted to
the discussion of good roads.
Prominent men from all over the
country who are advocates of good
roads have been invited to deliver ad-
dresses. Thursday morning the as
Sembly will begin work in earnest.
The election of officers will take place
Thursday afternoon. After that the
assembly will take up different ques-
lions for final discussion. The princi
pal question will be that of the propo
sition to grant local option to the diff
ferent divisions for Sunday racing.

Mr.. Miller CRep., o.. chairman of
election committee No I, then called
up the contested eIectic1 case of Will
liam Aldrich VS.. Thomas S. Plowman,
rom the Fourth Alabama district.
Mr. PloWman, the sitting member, is
a Democrat, and Mr.. Aldrich was the
Populist and Republican candidate. The
majority of the committee reported
solidly in favor Of uuseating Mr.. Plow-
man. Mr.. Taylor, who opened the de-
bate with an elaborate argument in
favor of sustaining the majority report,
oeplOred the fact that a partisan body
was called upon to pass upon an cleo
ton case, but in this particular in
stance he said there had been no draft
upon his political prejudices. He eX-
planned the Alabama election laws,
which he said could not have been
framed more effectively to encourage
fraud and thwart the peoples viii. The
illiterate voter, he said, was absolutely
at the mercy Of the ticket-marker.
Fraud, he said, was everywhere; not
lurking or secret, but bold and insolent
Mr.. Fox (Dem., AIiss.) presented the
case of the minority, which reported
that Mr.. PloWman was entitled to re-
tain his seat. He dweIt upon the fact
that Aldrich was not the regular nOmi-
nee of the Republican party and was
opposed on the stump by leading Re
pubicans and Populists, and that any
assumption that he commanded the full
strength of the Republicans and Pop
ulists Of the district was sunwarranted.
While there was a time, said Mr.. Fox.
when the magic names OF Lincoln and
Grant, together with a baseless fear
that the domination of their former
masters might again impress them into
slavery kept 0ahe negroes solid. that
time had gone. Republicans from the
north had no right to assume that ev-
cry negro was a Republican because
his skin was black. He controverted
the claim that a conspiracy existed,
and maintained that a revision of the
returns, in accordance with the testi-
mony, would still give Plowman q plu-
rality of 2,4S7.
Mr.. Settle Dem, Ky) began an ar
gumenr 10 behalf Of PlOWman, but be-
fore completing it he yielded to a mo-
ton to adjourn. It is expected that q
vote will be reached tomorrow.
