Omaha daily bee., 1899-06-27

Such demonstration had never been
heard of before in Brest, whose population
was at first thrown into state of con-
sternaton, but the demonstration soon be-
came farcical. AS soon as the crowd met
few police, headed by a police commits
sary, with the tr-color scarf around his
waist, the crowd dispersed and by 1890 the
streets were quite calm, except for a few
ragamufiins singing the "Marsellaise" and
the "Carmagnole" out OF the hearing of
the police. The latter only arrested four
and these will probably be released tonight.
Broussoueaux disappeared at the first
sign of a collision with the police. The truth
is the anarchists and socialists are here only
to further their own propaganda through
the Drevfus affair and there is little like
lihood of serious trouble.

BREST. June 26.-The French frst-class
cruiser Tage which put TO sea sunday even
ing the belief being that 1t was going TO meet
the SfaX, having Captain Dreyfus on board,
returned here at o'clock this evening.
Some sailors OF the Tage who landed later
said it had not met the SfaX. 1t encoun-
tered a fog and released its carrier pigeons
about twelve leagues out at sea, after which
1t returned to port. 1t hae all along been
offcally claimed that the cruiser was lcav-
ing Brcst to test some carrier pigeons
Another Dreyfusard meeting, organized
by socialists, was announced for this even
ing here. Circulars had been distributed
during the day, calling on the people OF
Brest to defend their liberties gained at
the expense of the four revolutions" and
to prevent the supreme shame to humanity
of the condemnation Of an innocent man"
The police took stringent precautions to
prevent trouble. DetaChments of gendarmes
were located in the houses situated in the
vicinity of the hall and the regular police
which were stationed about the place doubt
less gave the proprietor of the hall hint
because when the organizers of the meeting
arrived at the hall at $50 this evening,
headed by local anarchist leader named
Broussouleaux, the proprietor withdrew per-
mission for the meeting and hot alterCa-
tion without result ensued.
Finally BroussouleauX and his friends de-
clared their intention of creating a demon
straton in the streets and called upon their
supporters to follow them. The commits
sary of police, who was present at the alter
cation, Immediately ordered forty gen
darmes to Gordon the streets and cut Off
communication with the center of the town.
Broussouleaux was thus prevented from car
rying out his plans.
An hour later some OF the men entered
the town by another route, then joined
by all the loafers in Brest, they overran
the whole place, shouting IA bas l'armee!"
"Vive Loubet!" "Vive Dreyfus!" and "Vive
la social revolution!'

Recorder Silver Dick.

Before the present State of Nevada
was even a Territory itself. Senator
Bland of Missouri, who is ~favOrably
known in the West as SILVER Dick, was
an official in what is now the Silver
State. At that time Nevada was a
part of Utah and the county was
known as Carson county. Senator
Bland vas the RECORDER for the entire
county under appointment from Wash
ingtOn.
1t was here that he probably r%eceiy-
ed his steadfast love for the white
metal, at any rate he has been a ~staunch
friend to the white metal and it is o
unreasonable to suppose that he looks
back on the time before the great Com
stock was uncovered and remembers
the State of Nevada as Carson county.

Lottery Money.

While a few people Ire registering a
roar owe a proposed vote over the es-
Enlistment of a lottery in this State
they overlook the fact that several lot
teries are being conducted in California
without the action of legislation and in
secret defiance of law. The California
people are hauling down a neat little
dividend every month from the ven
turesome people of Nevada.
There are a number of agencies in
this city for the California lotteries and
they are patronized to an extent that
is little realized by the people. 1t is a
safe assertion to say that $40, 00o leaves
this State every month to be dropped
into the Golfers of the California
scheme. In this town alone there is
81 600 sent to San Francisco that is in
vested in the lottery.
If the people want to keep this none,
at home they had better take the mat.
ter in hand and see that Nevada cen.
ducts lotteries and not California

The Cattle Shortage.

It has taken a leng time to convince
the country a. large that a cattle shortage
really existed. ami uaI-h longer to have
it generally ackuoWie6- 80, but o not
only do none Oeny tut everyone who
discusses the condition OF the cattle in
dustry refers to that as one of the con
ditions having most influence upon it.
There are we'll informed cattlemen who
do not hesitate to allege that the shortage
is too great tor the country to ever be
overstocked with cattle again, at least not
within the neYt twenty years, basing
their opinion upon the belief that before
the existing deficiency in supply can be
made good there will have been such q
large growth in population, accompanied
by a corresponding growth in demand,
that the gap between the supply and de-
mand will be as large as ever, which CON
ditiOns will continue time without limit.
1t is a strong assertion TO make, yet it is
within the bounds of reason. There are
so many factors affecting the measure of
supply that it would be rash to predict its
limitations. In very much of this cattle
country there are changes i'll progress
that must multiply the capacity of the
land to sustain cattle, and it is reasonable
to expect that from the ranges # the cat
tie states the cattle supply will be III
creased to the utmost of the increased
carrying capacity Of the land.
The raising of beef cattle has been ne
elected in some of the States by the
farmers, and seeing their folly are o
beginning to divert their attention to thi,
particular industry, the cause Of which
is the large profits that the ranChers are
now receiving. On the other hand, sheep
men are encrOaching on vast tracts o
range II will hold to the exclusion O
cattle. England is consuming a larg,
amount of our beef, increasing each yea
the larganess of the demand
The Philippine question has opened
another source for another large demant
of beet, which will increase with the pro
gress of time and the barriers which hav,
barred the doors of European nation
against out beef will undoubtedly be re
moved. These are all potent factors ant
the future effect cannot be foretold. Tn
markets across the ocean are clamorin;
for the best cattle, fresh b. ef, hams an(
: bacon that we can furnish. IN all of thes
commodities there has been q heavy in
? crsase of ex ports, demonstrating that tn
l wonderful agricultural of thi
country are destined to be drawn upoI
/. more and more extensively for the sus
. ~tenance of the world.-Silvel State.
