UTAH STOCKMEN PLEASED.
Governor of Colorado Vetoes the
{ Grazing Bill.

The chief topic of conversation
among stockmen and dealers yesterday
afternoon was the action of Governor
Thomas Of Colorado in vetoing the
grazing law, known in Colorado as the
Evans bill. Ever since the passage of
the bill by the Colorado legislature,
the cattle-shippers of Utah and Ne
vada have been ON the gridiron to
know what action Governor Thomas
would take in the matter, as it was one
of great interest in a financial way to
western cattle-owners.
The bill imposed a tax of 10 cents
per head for sheep and 40 cents per
head for all cattle coming from outside
states and grazing upon Colorado
lands. The cattlemen and sheepmen
have been in the habit of driving their
stock from Utah and Nevada in large
numbers on the Colorado ranges dur
ing the summer months, and, with the
opening of winter, trailing them to the
central portions of the state and feed
ing them on the hay and grain pro-
duced there.
Yesterday there were a number of
cattlemen congregated at the office of
the Colorado Midland here, and a tele-
gram was sent to Governor Thomas,
asking what action he had taken in
regard to the bill. An answer was re-
ceived, stating that he had vetoed the
bill at 10 p. m. Thursday night, just
two hours before it would have become
a law without his signature.

CHINESE ATTACK GERMANS.
Lively Fight In Which Several Mon.
golians Were Killed.

Victoria, B. c., April 22.-News was
brought by the steamship Athenian of
an attack by Chinese on a party of
Germans who were proceeding to /
Chau-Fu on March 49,
Inc Germans, who were headed by
Herr Zimmerman, an officer; Herr
MOTT, Herr Vochulte. mining engineers.
and Herr Motz, a draughtsman, were
marching across some wooded land
when they were suddenly attacked on
the flank. A fight ensued, in which
several of the Chinese were killed and
wounded. The Germans suffered no
loss, and returned to Tsentau fort. Kafo
Chau, in safety
A German naval patrol, consisting of
an officer and six men, then left to in
vestigate, and, after advancing a. short
distance, met a detachment of Chinese
who fired upon them. The German
party returned the fire, killing several.
The German admiral at once landed a
stronger force for the purpose of re
storing order, whereupon the Chinese
decamped.
News also comes from Tsentau fort
under date of March 30, that a German
priest was imprisoned and beaten near
Thimo, and a German detachment was
sent to effect his release. The detach-
ment liberated the priest, who was suf-
fering from slight injuries, and in
fi1cted punishment on the culprits.

Pride and Genius.
New York HeraldN


A modern scientist assures us that
men of real genius are always proud,
and ne gives the following examples as
proofs Of the truth of this statement.
When Mirabeau was dying he said to
his servant: Prop up my head care
full. for it is the most remarkable head
in all France"
Michael Angelo wrote in 1912: "An
the differences between me and Pope
Julius arose from the fact that Raphael
and Bramante We're Jealous of me, and
tried to overthrow me. Yet everything
that Raphael knows about he learned
from me-
Rossini addressed some of his letters
to his mother as follows: ITO Mrs.
Rossini, the mother of the distinguished
master"
Finally Schopenhauer. when he was
asked where he would like to be bur
led replied: THE place does not mat
ter, as posterity will know well enough
where to find me-"
These are certainly striking examples
in some respects, but it would not be
difficult to find others quite as striking
of real men of genius who were noted
for their modesty. After all, the entire
matter evidently hinges on the crucial
question, What is real genius. and how
can it be unerringly distinguished from
pretentiouS talent?''
