The National livestock as

The National Livestock as
sociation has taken in hand the
matter of the abolition of the
usual holdup in the guise OF
state inspection on the inter
state movement of cattle, which
is falling heavy on men who
have bought stuff for the North
western ranges. The rule has
been to make stockmen pay a
Colorado or Kansas inspector
for inspecting cattle passing
through those states, that had
already been inspected by gov
ernment authority at point of
origin. The object of this is
ssmply to get the fees, and it is
an outrage that should be stop
ped. If such system of double
inspections is necessary, it should
be paid by the state that de-
mands it.-Ex.

David B Hill is being men
toned and will probably come
to Kansas City backed by the
New York delegation, as run
ming mate for Bryan. Mr.. Hill
is an able man, and as far as
that goes, would make a good
second for the head of the ticket.
But, we doubt if he would be ac-
ceptable to the rank and file Of
the democratic party. He was
not in thorough accord with the
party in the last campaign on
the money question. We have
no proof that his ideas on that
question have undergone any
change In case the democratic
ticket should be elected, another
Wilkes Booth, or another Gui-
teau might show up, and we
would have another misfit presi-
dent in the white house to do the
bidding of the money power and
betray his party as did Cleve-
land. We prefer straight-out
democrat and defeat to an un-
known quantity and victory.

In all the great irrigation
systems of ancient times, says
an exchange, history records a
central head made responsible
to each individual irrigator or
section and so the rules and the
laws under which agriculture
was performed were framed III
such a manner as to insure the
greatest good to the greatest
number. Thus a marvelously y
perfect agricultural develop
ment arose under such systems,
and serious conflict of rights
was unknown.

The Bryan OF 1900.

The New York World has evi-
IDENTIFY changed its mind in re-
gard to Bryan since 1896, judg-
ing from the following, clipped
from it's editorial columns:
The Bryan of 1900 stands be-
tore the people as a man with
the boldness of honest convic-
tions. The sincerity and cour-
age of such an attitude are ad-
m rable, however deplorable the
convictions may be. He is not
a gutter; we have had the tes-
timony of the Hon. Samuel Fes-
senden that the Almighty hates
gutter, too.
Mr.. Bryan has resisted to the
present time all the efforts OF
the time servers to make him an
accomplice IN the suppression
of the main issue which bore
him upward to the commanding
position be occupies in his par
tvs councils. He is using his
unequaled power to hold the
democracy to it's declared creed,
Notwithstanding the tempta-
fions of supposed expediency.
1t is a somewhat curious cir.
cumstance that Mr.. Bryan
should prove to be more stall
wart for free silver than Mr..
Cleveland was for tariff reform.
/ Indeed, Bryan is showing in
1900 that he really possesses the
moral stamina and unyieldine
adherence to principles which
the mugwumps of ten or "a dozen
years ago thought they had dis
covered and chiefly admired in
their idolized prophet.
In the case of Mr.. Bryan the
part of honesty is likewise the
part of political wisdom. He
| has been urged to ALLEVIATE sew
eral millions of voters for the
sake of pleasing a few hundred

J. H. Baker is up from the
river and says he feels good over
the cattle sale recently made.
On the Sierra Ancha range of
Mr.. Baker the cattle are as wild
as deer and efforts made to get
them out always resulted in dis
appointment. The new owners
propose to catch the steers and
tie them to trees and then drive
in some tame cattle to bring
them out with. An attempt was
recently made by the owners to
drive the wild animals, but after
wearing out themselves and
their horses they concluded to
adopt the above method.-Globe

The second flowing well has
been struck on the farm of J. w.
Lee near Stafford. The flow OF
water is said to be much strong
er than that of all the other
wells in the district combined.
We understand that the force
raises the column of water six
teen inches higher than the top
of the stand-pipe. If this is
true, it would indicate a flow of

stream was struck at a COM
