publications which assume to speak
authoritatively upon the value of Sc
curities and direct the minds of in
vestors.
Not infrequency it is the wish of
f%inencial heads to have spectators
take a bullish view of their offerings
and the value of financial papers in
this regard is appreciated. A rafting
good editorial" is believed to have
such effect.
But the managing officials Of the
Northern Pacific are understood to
have taken a different view Of the sit
uation this year. In the first place,
about all of Northern Pacific stock is
now off the market and there is a pos
| sibility that it will remain locked up
for some months to come.
Such being the case, it was reasoned
that nc necessity exists for specially
%laudatory editorials in financial publ
caticns, and consequently 10 allow

This is the reason assigned by some
for the somewhat caustic comments
which are to be found on editorial
pages which in the past offered lauda-
ton.

FEW MADE.
Output of Montana Range Cattle
Small This Year.

Fewer cattle have been shipped
from this state this season than for
a good many years. This not due to
the fact that the industry in Montana
has not been a paying one, but is at
tributable to the fact that a great
many of the larger owners have dis
posed Of their holdings, says the Hell
ena Herald. There is no section in
the United States where better cattle
can be raised than in Montana, but
there has been a scarcity of good
ranges with abundant water supply of
late years. The streams are all being
appropriated, and the only way that
the cattle owners can be certain of a
regular supply of water is to take up
the range lands. This has been done
by many of the larger owner The
Cruise cattle range in Fergus county
has also taken up large areas of land.
Instead of the immense shipments
from the Montana ranges as in former
years, cattle are brought here in large
quantities. Many of these purchases
include blooded animals, whereby the
owners will improve the quality of
their herds. But purchases are not
alone confined to cattle for stock pur-
poses, as there have been thousands
Of young steers bought which will be
fattened on the Montana ranges.
A train load was recently bought in
the Kansas City yards and of the
number some 200 head of steers were
purchased by Heron & Galen, and
are now on their range at Wolf creek.
Mr.. Galen says that the drouth was
broken the day he reached Kansas
City and that the downfall of the
rain, which came in sheets, marked
the beginning of the era of high prices
which has since prevailed. He could
have bought to much better advantage
a week sooner, but is content with the
prices he paid, Is followers Of the
stock quotations at the Kansas City
stock yards are familiar with the man
ner in which prices went skyward as
soon as the long drouth which affected
so many portions of the country was
broken.

Ogden a few nights ago appealed to
the police, saying he had been robbed
and described the men whom he ac-

asleep on the sidewalk. He was taken
to the station and there safely slowed

the money which he claimed to have

he put up a stiff resistance against

against him and he was released on a
cash bond.

herder in Carbon County.
The collection of curios-and~fessils
on exhibition in Spear & Whites office
was added to yesterday by a contribu-
tion from R. ]. MARTINI a sheepman of
Carbon county. Mr.. Martins addi-
ticn consists Of a vessel closely re-
.sembling an ordinary e1rucible, such as
is used by ~assayets, But of very prim-
tive workmanship The material of
which it is made in some respects
resembles asbestos and in others
slate, in that hy possesses certain of
the traits oflboth minerals, and al
though apparently burned like earth
ware is still quite soft. The latter
fact causes some of those who have
examined the vessel to think that it
was fashioned out of a solid piece of
stone.
Mr.. Martin said it had been found
by n of his sheepherders partially
buried in the ground, one end only
projecting above the surface. The
find is of interest to a%rchaeolo-
gists, as it undoubtedly is a relic of
some prehistoric tribe which wander
ed about these regions, for it is known
that the Indians as found by the first
whitemen to penetrate these parts had
no knowledge of pottery.
