Rawlins tWyo.) Journal: 1t begins
to look very much as II the republican
party intends to flop clear over on the
tariff question before the next cam
paign, just as We predicted some weeks
ago. Taking President McKinley's
last speech for keynote, republican
papers and speakers all over the land
are beginning to argue In favor oftariff
revision and the placing of various ar
ticles on the free list. Are our republi
can friends prepared to admit that they
have all along been on the wrong side
of the tariff question, while the demo.
Gratis have been right, or will they just
flop without trying to explain?

Hold on to Your Stock.

1t made one sick at heart during the
drouth to read the reports of the stock
markets. In Kansas City good calves
were sold at price that hardly paid
the freight, while stock cattle were
poured upon all the markets like an
avalanche, resulting in complete de-
moralization of the markets. After
the scare had subsided and reason had
regained her lost place, the sacrifice of
the stock ceased and the farmer and
stockmen began to look around and
take an inventory of the food that
could be saved and secured to keep the
stock at home, and to consider the ques-
tion of how long they could hold their
stock.
This is always serious question to
consider. How long shall one hold on
to the stock when feed is scarce and
high price2 OF course good market
at q profit would tempt any man to sell
and no false step might be taken, but
to sell the stock at sacrifice is nearly
always bad policy. Yet many do this.
They actually 60 into the cattle bust
ness as a sort of speculation. If feed
and prices are satisfactory they will
make money. If feed is high and prices
have not advanced correspondingly, they
sell and lose. Such policy is ruinous.
1t is much better if we exhibited few
more of the gritty principles of the
bulldog and hang on. There may
sometimes be danger in hanging on too
long, but as rule most of us get dis
couraged too soon. With poor food and
high priced fodder prevalent all oyer
the country the prices for cattle are
bound to advance. These prices never
do seem to go up, however, until most
of the stock has been sacrificed. Then
for some strange reasons the market
advances and somebody makes money.
Speculation has good deal to do
with this. Shrewd dealers go forth and
purchase stock wherever they are offered
at sacrifice, and they hold them for
the boom. Experienced breeders hold
on to their stock, and actually produce
more In the very face of a fodder fam
inc. But they have discounted the fu-
ture, and can pretty accurately predict
the future course of events.
The very best policy for stockman
to pursue is to hold on as long as possi-
BILE, and do not make asacrifice of stock
in any event. There is no sense in
that, and no reason. Pull through
some way. Find some ways and
means to make both ends meet. In or
der to do this it may be necessary to re-
sort to extreme measures, but half
the resources of the farm have
not yet been discovered or ex-
hausted. There is good bright straw,
which, if mixed with hay and some
grain, can be converted into food of
fair value. Millet, sorghum, pea hay,
corn fodder, pumpkins, turnips and
everything else should she utilized.
Take everything that can be found OF
purchased cheap and try to convert It

There seems to be growing sentl-
ment in this country in favor Of not re-
enactlng the Chinese exclusion act.
Cheap labor is evidently in demand.
The trusts can use good deal Of fifty
cents q day labor, They may get II
from Italy. They may get It from
China. They should not be permitted
to get It from either country. Last year
$4,000 Italians came to these shores and

EDWARD VII AND
QUEEN ALEXANDRA

NEW YORK, Feb. ia dispatch to
the Tribune from London says:
The King and Queen will remain n
London until the end of the week, when
they will again spend Sunday in the
country, either at Windsor or at Sand
bingham. London has become once more
the chief social residence, with the SOW
ereign close at hand, where his Minis
tiers can consult with him this week.
Weekly visits are in order for Windsor.
The transition means much to trades
men of the West End, for they perceive
in il promise of potency for long and
prosperous season. The King has settled
down to his work and is thoroughly in
terested in it. Those who know him well
assert that the business of state will
not be neglected by him, and that it
will tend to lengthen rather than to
shorten his life. Queen Alexandra was
greatly depressed when the reign opened
and was not disposed to take part in
state functions, but the King has insist
ed upon making ner prominent figure
at Westminster, and has even created a
precedent for equality of rank and dis
tinction when the College of Heralds
raised objections. The Queens interest
in affairs of state has been stimulated
and the King is making full Use of her
popularity as his strongest resource,
and the court, instead of being con-
Quoted by the Prince of Wales set, will
be strongly influenced by the Queens
will and taste. This is the judgment of
those in daily contact with the sover
eign, and it is a good augury for the
new reign.
