The INCENTIVE for the heinous

one which which all freedom low

sorry that their friend and wise

Anarchists cannot be too severely
dealt with. In reply to the ques-

Anarchists being passed by Con-

go just SO far. | lock to see new
legislation IN all the states having

MAJOR Towers. we'll known to
nanv OF our cattle men, has the
following 10 say about six shoot
ers. which we clip from the Kan
sas CITY Star:
sin the old days of the free gov
ernment range there WAS always
danger of Indians. 1t was Il prac-
teal idea for the cowbOv to carry
all the artillery that he could. be-
cause there was always danger OF
meeting bands OF Indian thieves.
But the danger from Indians has
passed now and has been for many
wears. There was no more reason
why a cowboy should CORY six
shooter than that he should have
"A steam engine along with him.
The guns always made trouble.
1t was too easy for man to pull
his revolver and shoot. In little
quarrels, perhaps over cards or
something else ns trivial, there
would too often be shots and IL
man or two would he deed. When
men lost their temper they used
their weapons, and then for hours
afterwards they would be sorry.
The big siXshooters were always
causing accidents. | went before
the cattle ASSOCIATION of western
Kansas, Colorado, Montana and
Texas and had resolutions pass ed
condemning slXshooters. The idea
was approved by nearly all of the
cattlemen. They saw just as l did
that sixshooters were -no longer
necessary. 1t was understood
that each man should do all he
could to drive the siXshooters from
his own ranch. The cowboys be-
gan leaving their weapons behind
Now the cowboys rarely carry
them. Men who have been on the
ranches of the west for tw. nty five
years have different idea of the
life III the cattle country than
those who get their pictures of
western life from eastern publica-
