WAR ON SHEEP RANCHES.

Montana Cattiemen Destroy Buildings
and Implements.
Butte, Mont, May 28.-War between
the cattlemen and the sheepmen of
Montana has begun and reign of ter
ror in certain localities where the feel
Ing is intensely bitter Is predicted.
Since the advent of the sheepmen
In Madison county the cattlemen have
been forced back and back, through
the loss of ranges incident to the close
cropping by the sheep, until they have
practically been driven to the wall.
Minor outrages of various kinds have
been of frequent occurrence, but the
climax came Monday night, when q
raid was made by the cattlemen on
the great sheep ranch OF Thomas Haw,
near Dillon, and all the buildings and
all the implements and wagons on the
place destroyed.
The men in charge CT the sheep
were in the hills, trying to collect their
scattered fiocks, when. under cover OF
darkness, the raiders dropped down on
the ranch An effort was made to fi-e
the buildings, but, owing to the snow.
the wood would not burn freely, SO
the raiders, procuring axes, chopped
every building to bits. Wagons were
next on the list and when the sheep
men returned to the ranch they found
nothing left but ruins. A warning.
posted on a board, In blood-red k'
ters, had been left by the cattlemen,
intimating in forceful language that
the next time the sheepmen and all
of the sheep would be slain.
