CATTLEMEN VS.. sHEEPMEN.

The opening session of the Ma
tional Live Stock Association at
Salt Lake City on Monday last was
largely attended. The only business
Of importance thus far transacted
was the adoption of the report of the
executive committee. which provides
for the raising of an emergency fund
of $40, 900 by private subscription.
From the outset il was apparent
that there was a clash of interests
between the cattlemen and sheep
men over the leasing proposition
the former advocating the leasing OF
public lands, and the latter firmly
opposing the measure. Hostilities
were begun when the committee
appointed at the previous meeting
to draft a bill to be presented in
Congress providing for the leasing
of public lands, reported that they
were unable to agree, and brought
in conflicting reports. The debate
which followed became decidedly
warm, and for a time there were
threats that the sheepmen would
bolt the convention and form an
organization of their own. How
ever, a motion to lay both reports on
the table prevailed, and peace was
restored.

Speaking OF lotteries, the details
of a plan by which q sharper at Salt
Lake City reaped an independent
fortune within a month, will prove
interesting at this time. About the
first of December a stranger, giving
his name as A. Fl. Curtis, secured q
room at a lodging house on the prin-
cipal street of that city land a short
time afterward the magnitude of his
daily mail began TO attract attention.
So numerous did the letters addressed
to him become that the mail clerks
found it necessary to tie them in
bundles for their OWE convenience,
and for a month they appeared to
increase rather than diminish in
number. Then Mr.. Curtis disap-
peared. and shortly afterward his
business" methods became known.
He had sent out thousands of circu-
lars addressed chiefly to hotelksepers
all over the country, in which he
represented himself as tue agent for
the Little Louisiana Lottery Com.
pany, and offering to send u bundle
of tickets for the January drawing
to the parties addressed on receipt
of $12.50. These we're to be sold,
but the agents were advised that in
the bundle would be found a pack
age of tickets marked especial" and
these they were instructed to hold,
as one of them would surely draw a
$500 prize. The argument was that
when it became known that some one
in a town had drawn a big prize the
sale of tickets thereafter would be
al easy matter. The fraud was a
transparent one, but nevertheless the
suckers fairly fell over themselves in
grasping the bait. OF course no
tickets were sent out. and every
express order remittance was clear
profit to the smooth 'lottery" man.

The report that the railroad COM
panies have a scheme on foot to COM
bine and do the express business Of
the country. thus practically forcing
the different express companies out
of the field, is declared by President
Valentine of Wells, Fargo e. Co. to
be without foundation. He points
out that the express companies have
contracts with the railroads EXTEND
ing over terms OF years, and the rail-
road companies could not get around
these, ever if they so desired.

The events of the past few days
would seem to indicate that Senator
David B. Hill of New York will be
the Democratic candidate for Presi-
dent in 1904. B. s. Coler, Con.
troller of New York City, spent Fri
day and Saturday of last week in
Washington interviewing Senators
and Representatives as to Senator
Hills chances. Among those with
whom he discussed the question
were Chairman Jones OF the Demo-
cratic National Committee, Senators
Charles A. Towne, and Frank R.
Pettigrew. and Mr.. Coler says that
no one with whom he conversed
raised any objection to Mr.. Hill
as the Democratic standard. bearer
in 1904.

RAILROAD FREIGHT BATES.

At Washington last week the In
terstate Commerce Commission rem
dered an important decision bearing
on the right of railroad companies
to charge a higher rate on freight
to intermediate than to terminal
points. While the case was brought
by q Denver firm against the Atchi-
son, Topeka & Santa Fe Railroad
Company the decision affects all
roads doing business in this country,
and SO broad and sweeping is it In
its provisions that even Nevada is
not excluded from its prospective
benefits.
The Commission holds that while
it is true the water route between
New York City and San Francisco
establishes the freight charges be-
tween those points, and that the rail-
road companies must meet those
rates in order to secure any respect
able share of the through traffic,
still the railroads can not discrimi.
nate against intermediate points by
charging them q higher rate than
that charged to the seaboard.
That the decision is a wise and just
n can not be disputed, and the
outcome will be watched with inter-
est by the people of the Inter.moun~
tain States.

Yes, August Flower still has the

lied world. Your mothers and grand
mothers never thought of using any
thing else for Indigestion or Biliousness.
Doctors were scarce, and they seldom
heard of Appendicitis, Nervous Pros
tration or Heart failure. etc. They used
August Flower to clean out the system
and stop fermentation of undigested
food, regulate the action of the liver,
stimulate the nervous and organic action
of the system, aud that is all they took
when feeling duh and had with head

WEATHER-CROP BULLETIN.


Cola Weather Rctards Growth-Farm OPP
erations Progressing Wen.
The weather Of the first part of the
week ending May was favorable there
being lair amount { f sunshine. with the
temperature near the seasonal average.
But Tor the latter portion of the period
there was much cloudiness, with more or
less rain, low temperature, aud cold cast
erly winds. The week, az a whole. was
unfavorable to crops and to farm ork.
Owing to the continued cool weather
there has been no marked change in the
conditions of growing crops. There has
been general Improvements. but the adj
vancement has been very slow. Plow-
ing and other work preparatory to seed
ing and planting has made good progress
except on low lands, which are too wet
in all parts of the district for cultivation.
The ground is still very cold; too much
for the generation of seeds, and for this
reason there is much delay in seeding
and planting, except in light gardening
The statements of CORES pondents, COM
pairing the season with other years, vary
greatly. In some sections Of Maine it is
reported the earliest season in 81 years,
while others in the same locality con-
slider that it is behind the average. Con-
sidering it for the whole of New Eng
land, consensus of opinion probably
places the season ten days later than the
average.
All reports relative to grain are favor
able. Much oats yet to be sowh those
IA
been planted, chiefly of the early sweet
variety.
Grass continues in fine condition aud
to improve. Pasturage is good, and
there is little feeding at the barn, except
in the northern sections. In number
of instances, correspondents state that
the grass, at the present time, assures
an abundant crop of excellent hay.
The prospect for fruit of all kinds re-
mains good, although buds and blooms
are retarded by the cool weather. Peach
es, plums, and cherries are in full bloom
in parts of Connecticut and Rhode Is
land. Raspberries and blackberries
which were injured by the drought of
last year are improving rapidly.
The planting of garden vegetables has
continued. but field planting is delayed
and is backward on account of the cool
weather and unfavorable condition of
the soil. Gardens are doing well. Let
tuce, radishes and asparagus (native)
are in market in some sections of Rhode
Island and Connecticut. Asparagus cut
ting has also begun in some sections of
| Connecticut.
