Finn. of the Ninth Massachusetts. lie

Santiago. but. as matter of fact. he
was alive at Montauk and doing well in
the hands of one of my associates.
u was in my tent one afternoon when
n young man came forward politely
and asked me If could give him the de-
tails of his brothers death; the name,

That could not have been my
brother, madam, for my brother died
at Santiago. The newspapers printed
it,

And we had hardly passed into the
tent when voice called out: Hello.
Jack and there was the corporal sit
ting up against his pillow. as pleased as
could be to see his brother. And the
brother promptly tainted away. We

A party interested in the new electric
light plant asks to be quoted as en-
phatically denying statements which
appeared in a local paper last evening.
Said he: Il will give the editor $40
for every foot of incandescent wiring
stretched by the old company south OF
Bridge street or north of Indian Run
previous to the incorporation of the
Belmont Electric Light and Power Com
pany Three wards of the city. the
Fifth, First and Second. have been prac-
tically without incandescent lighting,
and the most casual investigation up
on the part of the editor will confirm
him in the truth of my statement. Ii
the old company is in position to fur
nish an adequate service, why have
parties in the Fifth ward who have been
asking for lights for these many
days, not been given them? Why
should such privilege be reserved ex
clusively for citizens of the Third and
Fourth wards? Are the people in one
part of the town better than those liv-
ing in another part? The statement
that the old company is prepared to
furnish domestic lights whenever and
wherever the property owner is willing
to pay for wiring service is only sub
terfuge and deceives no one. Could
resident of the First ward afford to wire
from Bridge street to his home or from
Indian Run to the northern limits OF
the city? The imposition of such
condition the editor well knows is pro-
hibitory. They have. been prohibitory
in the past, and where is the honest.
fair minded citizen who doubts that
such unwarranted discrimination
would have continued indefinitely had
not the new competitor made it's APP
pearance in the field to relieve the city
and its citizens of these onerous bur-
dens. Council has simply acted with
ordinary business sagacity in doing
what it deemed best for our PEOPLE as
a whole, and were the editor public
spirited and progressive. the members
would receive his commentator. as
they have the universal plaudits of the
people. Instead of insinuation and as
persion of councilmen. let there be
full investigation of the merits of the
two systems of lighting. The new COM
pany challenges it: the council courts it
and the suffering people will be
the arbiters.''

The Elks have been getting along
nicely with subscriptions for their
building fund, and the members have
reason to feel encouraged. 1t has been
suggested that the plans be changed
and that an opera house be built in
stead of simply hall and business
rooms and offices. The great need OF
the city for such a building and the
chances for it proving paying in
vestment hardly admit of a doubt. A
hall for lodge purposes could be built
above the opera house and business
rooms underneath.

Depicting the Range.

Discussing the undoubted shortage
OF cattle ou the ranges OF the west.
many stockmen are figuring how long
1t will take to get the range restock-
ed again TO where it was a few years
ago. They are figuring entirely upon
the wrong basis. The stock OF cattle
will lever again be what it was upon
the range, and the indications are
that it will be a difficult matter to
maintain the present supply. 1t Ia
hard for the people to realize the eve
luton that is taking place, the graz.
ing has been SC damaged by over
crowdinR that the number OF cattle
formerly supported would be unable
to find z living there today. Then
the farmer with his fences has en-
croached further and further, until at
the present time there Is a wild
scramble 10 secure public lands in
every way possible. But the west is
not going out OF the cattle business;
in fact, 1t is only getting in, and get
ting IL right. 4 feS years from now
there will be more cattle than ever ID
the west, but instead Of running at
will on the plains, with a brand on the
hide to denote the ownership. the
great majority will be IN small
punches in enclosed pastures. They
Eil be better bred, better fed and
better cared for. Winter losses will
be almost unknown. and the supply
will be regulated according to the de-
mand. The depletion OF ranges is
not due alone to the shortage OF cat
tie, but the high prices, which en-.
ab!ed those III the business to get out
whole from what promised to be a
losing business in the future. Most
OF them are going back into the bust
ness, but on a new plau-well. bred
cattle and enclosed Pastures, where
hay can be raised for winter feeding.
