In re cent speech the governor of
one of the greatest states of the union
said that at the present time the cor
porations control the country. he
went as far as W. J. Bryan does in
denouncing the methods by which the
corporations secure control in cities
and legisiatures-by bribery, by
threats of ruin in business or politics,
by alluring promises, etc., and he
gave instances to prove his state
ments. He said in summing up:
''We are building up colossal
fortunes. granting unlimited power to
corporate organization and CONSOLIDATE

Interests as never before in the COM
mercial history Of the world. out the
people are lcs,rg control of their own
government. Its foundations are be-
ing eapped and its integrity des-
troyed. -
This fearless spea ker was Governor
LaFollette Of Wisconsin, elected as
republican, but whose talk sounds
more like democrat or populist.
And the leading republican newspapers
condemn him for his utterances, and
say that he is fostering populism. The
republican leaders do not..feel at home
with LaFollette and they would like
to throw him out of the party. Times
have changed II. the last decade, and
perhaps after a while the country
will honor instead of reviling those
dem ocrats and populists who years
ago pointed out the dangerous ten
denotes even then manifest. These
prophets of what has come to pass
were jeered at and slsndered, and yet
from the very lips of those who once
abused them, comes the confirmation
of their views. The prophets spoke
the truth. President Roosevelt's chief
strength in his own party Is entirely
because he is believed to be sincere
in advocating doctrines that he him
self condemned and despised not very
many years ago. How sincere he is
time will show. But there is lesson
In the fact that the stones once re-
jected are now indeed become the
foundation of the temple. The men
who were described az uncouth.
long haired, fanatic, saw clearer after
all than the would-be wise men
around them. May It be not the case
that men who now bear the brunt of
attack and abuse because they ad-
vocate doctrines too radical for the
comprehension of the multitude, or
measures too just to be given q
trial-may not these men be recog-
nized in the not far distant future
az the truest Americans of their time i?

time ago for higher wages. They pre-

WOLVES XII sTEER.

Pack Of Eleven Down Big YearIing on

A big yearling steer on the ranch Of
Albert RObidoux, on the Smoky at the
boundary between Wallace and Logan
counties, was killed by a pack Of eleven
wolves Tuesday. When Robidoux had
discovered that the coyotes we're preyirg
upon something in a gulch not a great

with a gun, and as ne came up six out
Of the pack of eleven still gnawed at the
flesh Of the steer until he was within 100
yards Of the carcass.
He says the wolves have become so
bold they go in packs of ten or a dozen,
and when very hungry will tackle almost
anything, usually singing out the small
er and weaker animals Of the herd. He
wants the sports Of GOOdland to organize
for big wolf hunt, for their is game in
his part Of the country that would make
the chase interesting and the bagging
profitable.

COMBINES AND CATTLE PRICES
The drop in the price OF cattle can
only be explained by recognizing the
power Of the beef combine to control
the cattle market. The packers fix the
price and pay what they please for beef
on the hoof. Then they fix the price
Of beef supplied to butchers. So the
farmer and the consumer are caught
between the upper and neither mill
stone Of a grinding monopoly.
The low price of cattle is not due to
overproduetion. Besides the cattle
raised in the United States, a large
number of cattle are imported to meet
the demands of the trade and to sup
ply consumers. In the fiscal year end
ing June 30, 1902, animals Of all kinds
to the amount of 81, ,531 were i'm
ported, and a large per cent Of this
sum was the value Of beef cattle.
Moreover, the low price Of cattle has
not been followed by the low price Of
meats. The price Of meats are as high
as when cattle were high, and in some
cases higher.
As a result Of the condition of the
market farmers and feeders are losing
money. A few days ago a Kansas City
bank was concerned about a case in
which a Kansas farmer figured. The
farmer borrowed $3.50 q head on a
herd of steers last spring. He held
them all summer on grass and started
TO feed them corn this winter, but the
slump in prices scared him and he
shipped them to Kansas City and put
them on the market. They netted him
with freight paid, s2I6O, or 90 cents a
head less than he had borrowed on
them last spring. He finally made a
satisfactory settlement with the bank,
but his case illustrates what others are
doing.
Beef loins that brought cents in
January last year when it was consid-
cred safe to lend the $3.50 on these
, cattle bring cents at wholesale now
Beef ribs bring the same as they did a
year ago. The same is substantially
true of every part of the animal.
Supply and demand may regulate
the prices of some things, but neither
the butcher, the farmer nor the con
sumner can see why, if the supply justi-
fes the reduction Of the price Of cattle
on hoof, it would not also justify re-
duction Of the price of meat on the
block.
If the packer could pay 81, 81 % OF
S15O per hundred pounds more for the
live animal last year than he is paying
now, why can't he pay the same now
when he gets the same price for hi:
meat.
The packers attempt to explain but
their explanation does not explain. Il
will be remembered that about a yea
ago the Kansas City packers were fined
5000 apiece for violation Of the Mis-
souri, law against combines and con
spiracies to fix the price of meats.
They are re-couping now both tn;
fines paid and the loss by food dam
ages. It is about time for the sttorne!
general Of Missouri to take anothe,
whack at the beef combine and Gus
them from doing business in the state
the part of the penalty not enforced
against them last year.
