ing at Greeley Is about the same
as in the sand hills. The Aspen
wall planter is largely used, but
owing to abundant irrigation, the
seed is planted closer in row than
at Gordon. The method of cult
walton differs from ours. No
weeders or harrows are used, but
four horse one row cultivators and
they cultivate deep the first and
second time. About four times
over is the rule and they finish
with old-fashioned single shovel,
used for opening out the irrigating
ditch. The water is usually turned
on in July and August and they
irrigate four to six times, or when
needed. The work must be done
carefully and just at the proper
time. A n inexperienced hand
would probably fail in his first at
tempt to raise spuds by irrigation.
The fields are absolutely free from
weeds.

This is small town but yet it is
as large a place as there is for a
good ways up or down the rail-
road. In this town there is a mill
that grinds and makes flour, gra-
ham, corn meal, brand chopcorn
and many other such things. This
mill is run by an engine part OF
the time and the rest by the Mime
chaduza creek. We also have the
court house of Cherry county, 9
public school, water tank, electric
lights, telephones, railroad depot,
park, opera house and four church
es. We also have many things,
such as to prevent fire from burn
ing houses down. There are many
good stores and men to do any
kind of work. We have livery
stables, blacksmith shops and bar
ness shops. Not far from here is
a fort called Fort Niobrara which
helps our town out by buying
things in it. They also help some
by riding to town and back
in the buggies and mail car
riers that employ this job.

be taken from them to pay 1.-THE
thousands of dollars spent in in
vestigations" for fencing govern
ment lands. Is there not another
way of dealing with these men
who have spent their money for
fences and improvements upon the
government domain? Why should
the government direct such an
aggravated attack upon an in
dustry that should be encouraged
more than the raising of sugar
beets or the planting of forests!
Cherry county IS covered with
rich grasses that grow naturally
and the stockmen are trying to
utilize these grasses by grazing
cattle upon them. Experience has
taught them the valuable lessons as
to the best way to do this. These
grasses are of no benefit to the
government unless used each year,
as the grow, and become fuel for
destructive prairie fires if not util-
lied by the stockmen. Why are
they criminals for making use of
these grasses to feed stock when
failure to do so might mean the
destruction of the same by prairie
fires that would endanger their
stock, destroy their range, kill off
the wild game and again lay the
F! country bare to the winds which
would make western Nebraska a
sand desert as it appeared in the
early days.
This blow struck at the stock
men is blow at the live stock in
dustry and means fewer and infer
Tor stock raised. The decrease in
stock will mean much to the west
ern people and more to those who
purchase meat in eastern cities.
The beef trust will be better able
to control the product and their
power will be increased. Secre-
tary Hitchcock will have worked
vengeance on defenseless people
not a wealthy people, but the
producers-the backbone of the
live stock industry.
These objects of attack have
been styled "cattle barons," cattle
kings" and the wealthiest of the
stockmen. All the stockmen suf-
fer from these molestations. The
Standard Cattle company has al
ready gone out of business and
thousands of acres of hay and
range was not utilized the past
season on their lands. Others are
bound to follow in their footsteps
and thousands of cattle are being
rushed to market only partially
prepared.

A man, who on the election
board as Judge, would steal a vote
properly marked, under the pre-
text of trying to read the voters
mind to the contrary, also would
rob others of their vote who had
plainly shown their intentions but
failing to mark properly, is ras-
cal and in secret, we believe, he
would not hesitate at greater
criminal action.

active steps the past few months
in prosecuting what they term
cattle kings or cattle barons'
in Western Nebraska for fencing
government lands in view of max
ing an example of them as they
claim to stop the practice. Rich
ards and Comstock are selected as
1.-THE wealthiest cattle barons OF
the west and were fined upon their
plea of guilty $500 each and costs
aggregating $500. In addition to
this they are kept in the custody
of the y. S. marshal six hours,
which Omaha papers try to make
light of, in explanation that it
probably meant a trip to the
theatre or some interesting trip
somewhere. Several other Cherry
county cattlemen were also indict-
ed and taken to Omaha before
Judge Munger of the US. federal
court, there to answer to the
charge of fencing government
land which no stockman has denied
nor tried to conceal.
In the case of Richards & Com
stock, Secretary Hitchcock COM
plains bitterly of the fine being
wholly inadequate as punishment
for the offense, stating that he had
spent thousands of dollars in gath
ering information and in investi-
cations for the government and
was indignant at, perhaps their
plea of guilty. Perhaps the secre-
tary would have felt better had
the defendants offered some de-
Tense or denied the charge and
then have been found guilty. This
would have seemingly justified the
secretary in spending thousands of
the governments money. If the
secretary would have issued an
order to these men and others to
take down their fences within
given an reasonable time, the thous-
ands that he is now lamenting as
spent might have been saved. 1t
has been common practice of
stockmen, large and small, to
fence or enclose pastures in the
Sand Hills and no one in recent
years in Cherry county have in
Inundated settlers or obstructed
the. settlement or homesteading OF
lands thus enclosed. Since our
residence in the county we know
of but few instances where the
fences have not been beneficial to
eli stockmen concerned, and those
having small herds have made no
complaints, excepting in close
competition for some watering
place or where too many stockmen
have tried to occupy the some val.
ley, and these differences have
been amicabIy adjusted with less
than the ordinary strife.
The cattle men of Cherry cOun-
ty have been liberal in their deal
ings with each other and have
worked tremendously together.
They have borne the hardships at
tendant upon the settlement OF a
new country with good grace and
should not now be jerked up to
appear before the tribunals and
their meagre earnings for years OF
toll, perseverance and hardships

beautiful parks, broad paved
streets, electric lights, large mer-
camille and manufacturing inter-
ests, cultured and refined society,
no saloons, and is an ideal place
for one seeking a home. The town
was founded in 1870 and was
named in honoe of our illustrious
namesake, Horace Greeley, it's
patron and promoter, who in his
enthusiasm and prophetic zeal pro-
claimed, go West Young Man,"
no doubt having in view this fav-
ored spot, where scores and hum
dreds of young men, peniless, but
with perseverance and pluck,
have followed the advice of the
sage philosopher and carved their
names high on the scroll of fame
and fortune.
Greeley is the metropolis of the
wealthiest and most successful
farming district in the state. All the
| farm lands are irrigated from
canals and bitches, taking the
water from the Cache lie Poudre
river, and fine crops of potatoes,
onions, cabbage, celery, sugar
beets, alfalfa and small grain are
raised. The values of these irri-
gated lands run from $3.50 to $3.50
per acre and the crop yields are
enormous. For many years, po-
tatoes have been the chief crop
raised on these irrigated lands,
and the fame of the Greeley spud
has become widespread and it has
commanded ready sales at fancy
prices, in all the leading markets
of the country. The farmers about
Greeley have reduced the raising
of spuds to systematic, scientific
basis, and their phenomenal sue
cess in this particular line is the
result of their pains taking care in
selecting seed, keeping varieties
pure, right methods Of culture,
sorting and preparing for market,
more than in the superior quality
of the tuber raised. 1t is a vel
known fact that a potato raised
under irrigation does not retain
the dry, mealy flavor and is not as
palatable as the sand hills potato
raised in sandy soil, without irri'
CATION, and the Greeley potato is
no exception to the rule. 1t is a
beauty to behold, and is carefully
sorted and sacked and sent te
market in the most tempting shape
and as compared with the tubel
raised in the heavy black
soils of Iowa, 1llino S
and other corn producing states,
the Greeley spud is par excellence
and cuts pretty wide swath. But
of late a dangerous rival is spring
ing up in the sand hills spud, a
little browner in complexion on
account of being nursed by the
suns rays, but with a meat as dry
and white as the finest Pillsbury
product, and wherever it becomes
known is eagerly sought on &C
count of it's superior flavor and
fine cooking qualities.
The potato raising district of
Greedy, Colorado, comprises a
tract of irrigated lands about 10
miles in width by Is miles in
length, from which are shipped in
a single season as high as 10000
car loads of potatoes. The sand
hills district comprites a territory
80 to 80 miles in width by 2CO
miles in length, with sandy soil,

miles in width by Is miles in
length, from which are shipped in
a single season as high as 10000
car loads of potatoes. The sand
hills district comprites a territory
80 to so miles in width by 2CO
miles in length, with a sandy soil,
peculiarly adapted for raising alb
solutely the finest potato for table
use and seed that has yet been
produced. The sand hills potato
stands in a class by itself and fears
no rival. Possibly not the finest
locker, but the FINEST COOKER is
the guarantee that goes with every
sack of sand hills spuds.
The leading varieties raised by
the Greeley farmers are Mammoth
Pearls, Rurals, Early and Late
Ohios and Rose Seedlings. The
yield per acre is $50 to 800 BUSH
els. The average price paid for
the last ten years is Csc per hun
dred or SOC per bushel as compared
with SOC at Gordon. This differ
ence in price may be accounted
for on account of the Greeley spud
not being fit for seed and the price
usually goes down in the spring,

Kitchen and Webster, who pur-
chased the Pike Thomas claim in
this district some months ago for ST.
500, have made payments OF $1,000,
and the final payment falls due on
January Ist, next. The new owners
have developed a six-toot ledge OF
ore that will run from $40 to SIS per
ton. They have just received 1000
sacks, and are sorting and sack1ng
ore for shipment.
Lockwood and Davidson have pur-
cha ed the Maher and Clark claims,
two in number, in the Mount Grant
district, and are preparing to haul
ore to the Latapie mill for reduction.
They have three-toot ledge of ore
that runs from $40 to $50 to the ton.
Morgan and Richie have a couple
of copper claims in the district
which look good. At a depth of
thirty feet four foot ledge has been
opened up which shows copper val
ues running from 10 to 40 per cent,
and gold running from S. to $40 per
ton.
A rich ledge has been discovered
at the foot of Wheeler Pass, near
Cottonwood Creek, by a prospector
named Murphy, who is developing
it. The ledge carries heavy free
gold.

Walker Range Mining Company.

The Walker Range Mining Com
pany is the name of corporation
which has been formed to do busi-
ness on the East Walker River, in
the Mount Grant district. The COM
pany is incorporated under the laws
of Arizona, with 100000 shares of
stock at 81 per share, worcestershire
and fully paid up. The company is
composed of James Treadwell, H.
r. Bradford, H. Fesler, T. B. Gam
bel and others, of California, with
H. r. Bradford, President, and H.
Fesler, Secretary, and has twelve
promising claims in the Mount Grant
district on Queen Mountain, Cotton
wood Greek and Wheeler Pass.
Enough work has been done on a
couple of the claims to show that
they are valuable, and more work
in the way of development will soon
be started. In the Spring it is very
likely that a mill will be erected
some where in the district by this
company. The company also has
six claims in the Goldfeld district,
