PATERNAL DISCIPLINE.-A West
End rancher came to town Saturday
morning with his wife and shortly after
he left home two of his boys who were
| not invited to accompany the rest of
the family decided to come to town
on their own account. They are in
their teens. and the parents thought.
rightly no doubt, that home was d bet
ter place for them. When the parents
started home they met the lads just
beyond Five Points coming toward
town. The father halted them. made
them about face and execute Il rear
march. He announced to them that
the seven mile road home was no longer
than it was the other way and the
march would do them good. 1t is likely
they will not leave the premises again
until transportation is furnished.

w. c. BARNES ON TRUSTS.-A late
issue of Leslies Weekly contains an
article by Hon. w. G. Barnes. formerly
of this territory, on the subject of the
beef trust. in which he deals especially
with the crusade started by the New
York World. better known as the Anti
Beef Eating league. Mr.. Barnes points
out that this silly movement will not
punish the great packers as it is in
tended to do. because they are so stu

made upon them. upon the cattlemen
who would become the sufferers if the
crusade should gather any force. The
present high price of beef Mr. Barnes
does not believe was brought about by
manipula ton. but by the growing
scarcity of cattle. Neither does he be-

lower by agitation. He points out tina

III the prices are too high the trusts are
to blame and if prices seem to be alb
normally low those who are affected
also charge that circumstance to the
