So far as we are able to learn, the
loss of stock from the severe weather
will be very light in this state. Prob.
ably the greatest loss will be record
ed on the ranges north OF the Missouri
river. Cattle were getting very thin
and some were dying, but 1t IL
thought the Chinook came in time
TO prevent serious results as cattle
were in fairly good shape when the
cold weather set in. In this county
both cattle and sheep men were pre-
pared To feed literally. As cattle
have been gradually divided into
smaller bands the problem Of taking
care Of them through bad weather
has, in n measure, been solved.
Range cattle in the bad lands, north
and east Of the Judith range, may
have suffered some but the losses are
not likely to he heavy, rs the breaks
provide good shelter and the snow II
not So deep as In other parts OF the
county. Should the weather modcr-
ate and clear the ranges Of snow il
would prove a great relief and re-
reremove all apprehension among
cattle and sheep growers.

The President Speaks.

The great speech of President Me-
Kinlry before the Home Market club
of Boston last week was one the
people could well expect Of the man.
Every word was lofty and patriotic
and a singing rcbuke to the croak-
ers and demagogucs who have OPP
just settlement OF the war with
Spain. His u%tterances also prove
how absolutely false were the charges
that the president was an imperial
list and desired a permanent colonial
government in the Philippines. Up
to the present time the president and
congress have pursued the onlycourse
that was open to them. The govern
ment OF the islands is left to a future
congress. The president very neatly
turns the tables upon some of those
who were anxious to plunge into
war but who are first to shirk it's
responsibilities. He says:
Many who were impatient for the
Conflict a year ago, apparently heed
Less Of its larger results, were the
frat to cry out against the f~ar-reach-
ing consequences of their act.
Those of us who dreaded war most
and whose every effort was directed
to prevent it. had fears OF new and
grave problems which might follow
its inauguration. The evolution Of
events which no man could control
has brought these problems upon
us. Certain IL is that they have not
come through any fault on our part,
but as a high obligation, and we
meet them with a clear conscience
and unseliish purpose, and with
good hearty resolves to undertake
their solution. Ii IL n trust we have
not sought; it il not a trust from
which we will finch.
Speaking Of the Philippines, the
president says:
1t was suggested first, that they
should be tossed into the arena for
the strife of nations; or second, be
lost to the anarchy and chaos OF mt
protectorate at all. These sugges.
tions were too shameful to be con.
sldered. The treaty gave them to us
Could we have required less and done
our duty? Could We, after freeing
the Filipinos from the domination oj
Spain, leave them without govern
ment or without power to protect
life or property or perform interna
tional duties incidental to an indie
pendent state? Could we have lef'
them to a state Of anarchy and jus
titled ourselves In our ownconscienc'
or before the tribunal Of mankind
Could we have done that In the sigh
OF God and man?
Much has been said about securing
the consent OF the governed" by
Job lot OF politicians. To them III
president replies:
Indeed, can any one tell me In wha
form il could be ~marshalled and as
certained, until peace and order, $.
necessary to the reign OF reason .shaI
be secured and established? A reigl
OF terror Is not the kind OF rule unde
