 Range News: The National Live stock association has taken in hand the matter of the abolition of the usual hold up in the guise of state in- spection on the interstate movement of cattle, which Is falling heavily on men who have bought stuff for the northwestern ranges. The rule has been to make stockmen pay Colo rado or Kansas inspector for inspect ing cattle passing through those states that had already been inspect ed by government authority at point of origin. The object of this is sim. ply to get the fees, and it is an out rage that should be stopped at once. If such system of double inspection is necessary, 1t should be paid by the state that demands it.

The Eureka Springs Citte company Is d heavy loser. Tom Bell it Is said. has employed man to skin dead cattle on the range.
 Stockmsn: Those who feed cattle this summer will most likely find a very good demand for their fat stuI the coming winter. The statement is made that California will be exceed ingly short on beef the coming winter and the number of cattle to be fatten- ed in this valley promises to be short also. so that those who have fat cat tie will be in position to demand a neat figure for them.

Another Fire.

On Saturday evening, little after o
o'clock, the Dyke residence just north Of
the school house, occupied by Mr.. and
Mrs. w. L. Mallory and the Misses
Dyke, was discovered to be ON fire.
Mrs. w. l.. Mallory and Miss Minnie

time and knew nothing OF the FIRE until
awakened by the pistol shots fired TO
give the alarm. A large crowd collected
Immediately and some furniture and
and household goods were saved.
The fire bell was rung and the hose
cart was laboriously dragged to the
scene by some half dozen men while
scores ran past them to the FIRE and
would not lend hand. The water was
brought to bear in time to save the small
kitchen ell Of the house, which however
was somewhat inconsiderable saving.
The fire originated up stairs in an
unoccupied room and 1t is supposed
that it was ignited by sparks from a
probable crack IN the Hue. Mr.
Mallory was absent down town at the
time.
There Was 500 insurance on the
house and 800 only on the lunture,
The loss in household goods and iurni'

On Tuesday, John Moore OF Leland
was arrested on a charge OF forgery and
his trial was held before Justice Hol-
man. He had no defense aud no
counsel and refused to make any state

plain case Of forgery and the court held
him under bonds Of 5000 to appear
before the circuit court, in default Of
which bonds, he is detained in the
county jail.
1t seems that Moore has been in the
habit OF oiobtaining money and goods in
Grants Pass by giving notes with the
forged signatures Of T. J. Mackin Of
Leland and s. b. Pettingill Of Grave.
Some OF these notes have been running
for some time without the knowledge
Of those whose names were appended.
II is affirmed that the iorgeries were
very poor copies Of the names and that
Moore should 90 on giving notes In
