A prominent western sheep owner,
now in Washington. to whom these
figures were shown, said that the losses,
large as reported, were not exagger-
ated; in fact, were not as great as the
actual losses. Newspaper reports
sometimes exaggerate stock losses, hut
sheepmen themselves do not wish them
made public, especially in official re-
ports, because many Of them are Dor
rowers of money and it is therefore to
their interests to represent the losses
as lightly as possible. The CORE
spOndents of the government bureau
at Washington, who furnish the re-
ports of losses. are generally prominent
SEeepTnen so that IL may be assumed
that the government estimates of losses
are on the conservative side. 1t is
proba BILE that many of the reports on
which the government estimates are
based were prepared before April 1 and
did not include the heavy losses of the
latter part of March.

Report Wrong.

The government report about New
Mexico is manifestly wrong. The losses
there are stated in the report at about
as high a percentage as any other
state. The percentage is given at 1872,
which is not approached by any other
state except Wyoming, at 1856 There
were no serious losses in New Mexico
during the past winter, conditions on
the contrary being reported rather IA
vOrabIe, while in the western range
states losses averaged quite heavy. All
personal statements. private CORE
spondance and published accounts
agree that the losses were fearful in
these states. yet the government re-
ports represent them as being cOnsid-
erabIy smaller than in New Mexico.
Taking everything into cOnsidera ton, %
he said, I think the general average of
sheep losses during the winter may be
stated as 20 per cent, as against q
normal loss of 3 per cent. and the gov

CHIEF SULLIVAN
OF SEATTLE
is Instructed by Mayor Humes to
Do Business With the Grim
inal Element.

Seattle.-"DC business" That is the
mild injunction which Mayor Thomas
J. Humes impressed upon Chief of
Police john Sullivan at a private con-
ference held in the mayors Office.
DO business with the police force.
Press the lawbreakers to the wall and
make it so hot for them that they
cannot stay in Seattle
SO the mayor told Mr.. Sullivan. The
chief called upon the official mead Of
the city government soon after the
mayor came down from his home on
Twenty-third avenue.
The chief told the mayor about the
event Of the looting of the Washing
tons barrOom and the carrying away
and cracking of the safe. Mr.. Sulll-
van did not forget to tell the mayor
either that one of the assailants was
behind the bars and that he had hopes
of ultimately rounding up all the no.
tOrious criminals about Seattle.
Mayor Is Good Listener.
The mayor listened calmly 10 all
Mr.. Sullivan had to say. The latter
was not on arraignment for derelic-
ton in duty. 1t was only friendly
consultation and a consideration Of
means for more effectually protecting
the city, especially during the carnl-
val season and the races, when the
criminal element is found in greatest
abundance and where they have OPP
portunities for working their graft
with the least danger of detection.
The chief gave a reasonable excuse
fer the failure of the police to frus-
trata a robbery such as that at the
Wa2hingtOn. There is no patrolman
detailed for duty at Washington. 1t
| is isolated and to be effectually pro
tacted a blue coat would have to be

have not a sufficient force to properly

il is true emergency men for those
| who have been absent on vacation,
but they are not likely to be the best

NOT likely to take up a Temporary po-
J sition where the pecunlary reward is
{ not great. The chief has been doing
his best. He cannot turn all his force

Campbell Brothers big show came in
early this morning from Mcpherson
where it showed yesterday to a large
sized audience About 1920 the par

by an enormous crowd OF people, much
larger, in fact, than was expected.
Washington street was lined with peO-
pie on both sides. People were pres
ent from all parts of the county eager
to see the parade and to attend the
performances. The parade was much
better than the people expected to see
and as a result the attendance at the
show this afternoon was very large.
Before the performance commenced
it seemed that every seat was Cccl-
pied which is saying a good deal when
it is known that Campbell Bros. main
tent is al enormous affair. what 5
more everybody seemed to have got
lheir moneys worth and was we'll
satisfied with the performance.
One nice thing about this circus
was the absence Of the usual troo2 OF
fallirs and gamblers. The people At
the head Of this big show are gentle
men and they have show that every
body wants to see. This evening a
larger attendance is expected than
even this afternoon.
