HIDES AND HORNS.

Range News: J. s. Kinnebrew, of Texas, was visiting the surround ing ranches this week buying horses. He has just shipped two carloads of horses to Pecos, Texas, and is now busy getting another shipment together.
 Stockman: Range horse ship ments from the southern counties are being made to eastern markets by D. I. Gallagher, who has been operating in horse flesh for some time in Arizona. Every bronco horse removed from the range means that much added capacity for steers. Let the good work go on.
 Stockman. Mir. R.. E. MeDowell and son, came up from Buckeye to attend the circus. Mir. Mcdowell made this office a pleasant call, and said that the recent heavy rain did some damage but it cer- tainly did lot of good, and that the prospects are better there than they have been for years and ranch men are all feeling jubilant.
 Tucson Miner: The fall months show a better condition of cattle interest in southern Arizona than has been known for some years. The heavy rains have improved the range and grass is abundant and all cattle will enter the winter months in fine condition. No range that we can hear of is at present overstockcd and the only losses predicted are old cows.
 Range News: Capt. w. H. Me Kittrick, one of the largest And best known cattle men of this sec ton. arrived Sunday from Califor- mia and was met by J. B. Parks, his popular manager, and driven to the ranch. It is rumored that Mir. McKittrick has been negotiat- ing for the purchase of the Full bright cattle and that he is here to close the deal.
 Prospector: Policarpio Para was bound over to appear before the next grand jury and answer to the charge of horse stealing. He is ac cused of having stolen two horses from a rancher on the San Pedro river, and the animals were found in Parra's possession when arrested a fews days since by Deputy Sher- if Larieu. The Mexican claims that he purchased one of the ami mals but quite recently and the other horse strayed from his benign care some three years ago. The rancher, however, proved to the satisfaction of Justice Wardwell that he could substantiate his claim, and Parra was held to answer.

HOME RULE NOW INEVITABLE.

Public opinion has evidently been revolutionized in
Britain regarding land tenure in Ireland Twenty
years ago would have been deemed guilty of
treason for presenting scheme offered by the
chief secretary of Ireland settlement of the Irish
land question In fact Michael Davitt to Jail for
offering similar proposals.
But Irish landlorism has since proved itself to be
very expensive institution and constant of

resulted in the the landlords and the
moral ruin of the tenants"
1t is hardly surprising then, that the Irish leaders

compelled the British government buy the land.
lords country is to be forgotten that Irish
landlordism longer pays else the home secretarys

But the chief secretary for Ireland proposes to give
outright the distressed Irish the of s6O000000,
and to lend $500 100000 1t is wonder that
such proposal has shaken the price of

AS for the details proposed purchase BILL they
are very complicated but the fact that such as

well for its prospects.
The plain logic of the whole situation is that under
the present things the landlords of Ireland
being ruined financially the tenants morally, and the
taxpayers of England paying 100000 year to
keep up the police besides 100000 to the land
commission There must finally come an end to such a
state of things.
But whatever comes of the present bill. home rule for
Ireland is ultimately inevitable If the English govern
ment can have such confidence in the Irish give
them bonus s6OoOoOOO and lend them $500 100000
