Last week while Frank Sims and Geo.
Donaldson were riding the range after
horses, and when about u miles from
town, they discovered a big mountain
lion out on the desert, The boys we're
bound to capture the lion, but as neither
of them had gun they determined to
rope him. They took their lariats and
started after him, and, after a chase of
couple of miles, Frank succeeded IN
throwing his rope over the animals neck
and also catching one fore paw. Frank
then put his horse to his utmost speed
across the lava, in an effort to drag the
lion to death, and when he finally stop
ped his horse the lion was found to have
had his back broken in his rough and
tumble journey, as he was unable to
move except his head and fore quarters
At this time George came up, and as the
lion was still full of fight, he threw his
rope over his hind feet, and, riding his
horse in the opposite direction from
Frank, soon stretched his lionship out,
a helpless captive. They then dismount-
ed, leaving their COW horses to hold the
lion down, while they approached it
and cut its throat. The lions skin was
removed, is fine one, and measures
Z feet and inches, from tip to tip.
If there is any species of high pro-
tectionist that an Idaho democrat dis
likes more than any other, it is the one
who places wool at the head of the list,
and the democrats are not alone in this
dislike.-Idaho World (populist.)
That expresses the feeling exactly, |
and vet the democrats of Gilmore county |
ask the wool men to support them for !
office. There is no excuse for q wool |
grower to vote other than the republican |
ticket if he wishes to stand by his friends. |
There is no use going into details to ex-
plain the differences between the re-
publican and democratic policies con-
corning wool growing, as every wool
grower in Elmore county is intelligent, |
and knows what democratic admins |
tration means for him.-EImore Repub-
lican.
In Lincoln county wool growing is the
ONLY industry that supports the people,
md the democrats and populists have
used to destroy it. Take the sheep in
iustry out of Lincoln county and nine
,ut of every ten ranchmen would have
% abandon his ranch. as he would have
10 market whatever for his produce
,ut maybe they wish to ruin the county
70 they will have good excuse to move.
