yening Of the April term Of the Frank

Cantrill sitting, marks the beginning of
the final legal proceedings against the
alleged aSSaSsinS of the late GOV.
Goebel. and on this account makes IT
the most important in the history OF
criminal trials in this state in many
years. The session of the court VIII
be taken up mainly to-day with pre-
liminaries. The names Of the grand
jurors will be made public to-day.
Judge Cantrelrs charge to the grand

hensiye. is looked forward to with
more than ordinary interest. Inc

ton case will be the first matter taken
up. 1t Is understood that Common
wealth's Attorney Franklin, who will
conduct the prosecution, has had SUD-
poeEas issued for many important
witnesses and others will be issued as
soon as the court gets down TO Work.
The names OF the suspects who nave
already been arrested and whose
cases have been referred TO the grand
jury for investigation, are Secretary
of State Caleb Powers. Judge William

A dozen or more years ago q farmer
twisted a bit OF iron about wire
fence, and noticed that his cattle
avoided IT. Thus originated the use Of
the barbed-wfre fence, which has cut
the great free prairies into ranchea.
1t has lacerated and cut from water
countless numbers CT the wild animals
that once roamed the prairIes, and h
now classed as war material by the
nations. Both in Cuba and In South
Africa the decentralization wrought by
the deadly barbed-wire fence was
greater than that of the most improved
guns and powder. The position Of
fence cutter has promoted the drum
mer-boy into the forefront OF danger.
