The Albion Times, the staunch
democratic paper of. Cassia county,
has been sold by Editor Marks to a
republican, and its politics will be
changed accordingly. Thus they
change one by one, but the demo

In the counties of Bear Lake.
Oneida, Bannock, Lemhl, Fremont.
Lincoln, Cassia, Owyhee, Bingham,
Blaine, Custer, Elmore, Ada,
Canyon and Washington, covering
more than two-thirds Of the state
and having no equal proportion of
voters, there are Is democratic
papers and 2s republican papers.
Three Of these counties, we believe,
have no democratic papers what
ever, while the same three have
eight republican sheets. The strong
democratic county of Fremont has
three republican organs and one

exists IN Ada county, while Oneida
has three republican, papers and. not

Oneida has 1922 democrats, but they
are not sufficiently enthusiastic to
support even one paper at the pres
ept time, while the 1891 republicans
keep three papers going. In Owyhee
there are 884 democrats but they
have no paper that the EXAMINER
knows of, while the 5S4 republicans
there have two papers. In Fremont
one paper does the talking for 2l53
democrats, while three papers whoap
it up for the 2l74 republicans of
that county. Cassla county has 624
democrats and they have let the
only paper they had starve out,
while the 674 republicans there now
have two sponsors for their cause.
And so it goes. The average num-
Der of subscribers to each paper is
about the same.
In proportion in these counties
there is one democratic paper for
every 1900 democratic voters, and
one republican sheet for every 600
republicans.
Nearly the same conditions exist
in the north part of the state.
Now there must be reason for
all this. 1t surely cannot be that
less democrats read than republicans,
or that the democratic papers are
poorer newsgatherers than their
political opponents, on the other
hand, we believe the average Of.
democratic papers in these counties
are better than those Of their repub-
lican brethren. This is particularly
true III the counties Of Bear Lake.
Bannock, Washington, Canyon,
and some others, while in the rest
of them, they average up equal to
their opponents. No. There must
be another cause, and we believe
1t is found in the fact that the
republicans appreciate, their papers
more than the democrats do. and
being thus appreciative, they see to
1t that every dollar of patronage
they have goes to their organs
When they get into office, they don't
look around for the cheapest skate
in the country irrespective of politics
to DO the public printing. They
don't STRAIN any optic nerve when
publishing land notices, ascertalnine

economy" and "square DEALING
We need only cite the fact that the
republicans are holdlng-a big part
of the offices in democratic counties.

Manager Leland Rankin Now in
Control of Richmonds Leading

Richmond, Va. Nov. 25.-The entire
capital stock of the Dispatch Company,

was to-day sold TO Leland Rankin and
associates. The company was at once
reorganized by the election of Leland

Watson James OF Richmond; Charles
H. Crasty of the Baltimore News and
George Trabue of the Nashville Amer

Chesterman and G.. Watson James, edi-
tors.
The Dispatch has for forty years be-
longed equally to the Cowardin and

joyed the confidence of the Virginia
people to a remarkable extent. Mr..
Rankin, the new publisher, was i've
years manager of the Nashville Amer
lean, and during the past year has
been manager of the Dispatch.
In his announcement, which will APP
pear in to-morrow's issue, he says the
paper will not depart from the time
honored policies of the past, but that
the scope of the publication will be
broadened in connection with the swift
development of the South, following
the leadership of the Democratic party
and fostering the material interests OF
Virginia and Richmond.

Washington, Nov. PA delegation

necessity of reduction in the american

After stating in a general way the
economic situation in the island, the
petition asks for number OF reduc-
tons In the American tariff on Cuban
products. These have heretofore been
published.
The petition goes ON to say that the
economical situation in which the ISL
and of Cuba is placed is such that
the remedies asked for admit of 10
delay.
The petition concludes as follow:
We. therefore, respectfully ertreat
you, either by virtue of the constitu-
uonal authority vested in you, or by
requesting Congress in your first mes
sage to grant you the necessary au-
thority to Immediately establish amrIe

STOCK LAW KNOCKED OUT.
Kansas Charges ON stock in Yards
in That State Invalid.

Kansas Charges ON stock in Yards
in That State Invalid.
Washington, Nov. 25.--In the United
States Supreme Court to-day an opin-
ion was handed down in the case of
Getting and Higginson against A. A.
GODDARD, attorney general of the state
of Kansas and the Kansas City Stock
Yards Company. involving the validity
of the state law of Kansas, empower
Ing the state authorities to fix rates
of charges on stock in stock yards in
that state. The decree of the Circuit
Court. which upheld the law, was re-
versed. Getting and Higginson were
stockholders in the Stock Yards Conn
pany, and soon after the law went into
effect, in 1897. filed a bill TO restrain
the officers of the company from COM
plying with the act and the
attorney general from enforc-
that such compliance or enforcement
would depricve the company of it's
property without due process of law.
It was also commended that the act was
class legislation. The Circuit Court
dismissed the bill Of complaint and an
appeal was taken to the Supreme
Court.
It was claimed on behalf OF the
stock yards company that the enforce
ment of the law would have had the
effect of reducing the receipts of the
company one-half.
