The editor OF the DISPATCH returned
from II business trip to California points
this week. That State is drying up and
drought and frost have played havoc
with crops of all kinds. The California
papers have little to say about the con-
dition OF affairs but the simple truth is
that losses will 20 into the millions of
dollars and the ranchers are TO be pitied.
April seems to be the favorite month
for Uncle Sam to tegin his arguments
with other nations, as the following
record shows: The Revolutionary war
in April /, 1885; the war OF 1912 on
April Il; the Mexican war April 1916
his dispute with his wayward children
begun in April, 1851 and ended in April,
1865. Will war with Spain begin this
month? Yes, April 10, 1898.
The Report having heard of our game
of baseball offers the following evidence
tn show how ancient our sport is. The
devil was the first coacher-he coached
Eve when she stole tirst-Adam stole
the well she was walking with u pitcher.
Sampson struck out II great many times
when he beat the Philistines. Moses
made his first run when he slew the
Egyptian. Cain made a base hit when
he killed Abel.
At the meeting OF the cattlemen held
in Carson Monday Thomas Kehoe asked
the privilege of shipping cattle through
Nevada under inspection. The Govern
OF Colorado, Utah and Nebraska had
already given permi ssion and if he could
ship them on the cars through Nevada
he expected to buy 10000 head. DIR.
Patterson held that in that case a quar-
antine station should be established
where the cattle could he unloaded and
fed and the corrals disinfected. 1t was
proposed to establish such a station at
Wadsworth.
Al. Griswold loaded a ton or two of
on the famous old buck board to
see if it was a genuine one-hoss shay. 1t
wasn't. 1t seemed like the groan of a
human when the hind lex" slowly bent
under the burden and finally snapped
in twain just as We imagine a heart
string might break. The old blackboard
helped make Eugene Griswold's first dol
lar in the line of merchandise and many
people think he has the superstition
that when the blackboard retires from
active operations he will have a run of
hard luck. He is not here so we cannot
interview him to give these believers
satisfaction or otherwise.
