What Is to Be Done With the
Great Public Domain?
Present Condition Amounts to a
National Scandal-Says Occu-
pancy Should Be Legalized by
a Leasehold.

The American Stock Growers AS
sociation in convention at Denver, Col.
last week, completed it's organization.
Membership is restricted to producers.
The objects of the Association, as out
lined. are to secure for shippers fair
aud equitable railroad rates and eff

sanitary provisions to prevent and
abolish illegal combinations and Trusts;
to promote foreign trade; to give the
National Government general super

Col. John p Irish of California read an
address on 1.-The Grazing Lands" He
said in part:
The Government and Public Domain
Neither repeal nor amendment of
the land laws. nor the extension of ir-
rigation by the Federal Government
will solve the problem of the graz ng
lands. After all irrigabie and tillable
land is occupied, there will remain
about 400, 900. 900 acres of public do
main. mostly fit for live stock ranges,
and for nothing else 1t is valuable
asset, with potential wealth. What is
to be done with it?
The Government has not yet answered
that question, and the live stock inter.
ests have not agreed upon what the
answer should be. That domain is
now occupied i'll common. 1t is over.
stocked. and as result its forage is be.
ing destroyed and its stock-carry ing
capacity is disappearing. When the
soil is barred by destruction of the forage
plants and their permanent eradication,
erosion and baking in the sun bring
aboat desert conditions, under which
reseeding and renewal of pasture is
difficult.
1--WE all know of the violence, crime
and loss of life and property that go
with the increasing strife for what
pasture is left. The range without law.
and its occupancy has no protection,
except the Winchester.
Lands Must Be Classified and Leased.
"Such condition amounts to Ma.
tional scandal, and wanton destruc-
tion of property value which 1t should
be the business of the Government to
preserve. The facts are all known, and
are of record in the report of the Land
Committee of the House of Representa-
tives of an investigation which pro-
cured. If the range industry is to sur
yive. these grazing lands must be classi-
fed and their occupancy legaiized by'a
leasehold"

Truckee River Dam Opposed.

The property owners at Lake Tahoe
are opposed to the United States Gov
ernment building the contemplated
storage dam at the source Of the
Truckee, which is the only outlet Of
Lake Tahoe. They claim that the
dam will raise the waters in the lake to
such height that all the valuable
hotels on the lake shore will be flooded.
The property is worth hundreds Of
thousands of dollars and the owners
will Immediately take measures to
petition the Government not to build

Gambling War Threatened in Reno


war is threatened among the gam
blers in Reno in fact hostilities have
already been declared and interesting
developments are looked for. 1t wa,
started last week when Mart Johnson
AID Charles Stout opened their games
i'll the Louvre and pasted in large letters
above each faro game a sign announc-
ing that all limit had been taken off and
that the gamekeepers asked no percent
age. In other words the only percent
age of the banker-the split-has been
abolished. This is radical move in
gambling and means that both the
banker aud player have an equal chance
of winning, the only difference being
that the player must guess the cards
that win.

During the summer months children are
subject to disorders of the bowels which
should receive careful attention as soon as
the first unnatural looseness of the bowels
appears. The best medicine in use for
bowel complaint is Chamberlain's Collie,

THE TONOPAH MINING COMPANY.
Annual Report Favorably Commented
On-Will Build 100 Stamp Mill.

The Tonopah Mining Company ON
May 2 published its annual report, upon
which the following comments were
made by the New York Commercial:
As compared with the schedule SUBJ
mitted last year it is shown that in 1908
the company shipped 1000 tons of ore
which returned more than $500, 900,
making the ore average more than $3.50
ton. In 1904, more than $1,000 tons
were sent out and the returns secured
did not exceed $630,00 This item
shows that the ore averaged about $40 a
ton last year. This falling off in the
returns secured from the ore does not
reflect any discredit upon the mine, as a
lower grade ore was Intentionally sent
out in order to reduce the high smelling
rate which the company is charged at
Salt Lake on the exceptionally high
grade ore. 1t is also explained in this
connection that a portion of the ship
ments represented leasers' ore on which
the company received only % per cent
royalty.
The management has likewise been
desirous of treating the ores of all
grades by regular smelter tests and
these shipments have necessarily
lowered the. average. 1t is asserted by
men in close touch with the company
that since February, 1905, the date at
which the report closes. there has been
shipped to date ore valued at 100000.
Tonopah Railroad a Large Earner.
The Tonopah Railroad, the 60-mile
road from Solaville to Tonopah. is con.
trolled by the Tonopah Mining Com
pany, and the report shows that for the
nine months from July 1. 1904, to
March /, 1905. the net earnings were
1888. 238, or S29, ,154.75 a month. The
report states that the change of gauge
and equipment will be provided for out
of the current net earnings of the road

Mention is also made of the fact that
arrangements have been practically
completed for the erection of a 100
stamp mill at The Wells on the railroad,

Costs a Cent a Gallon.

NUsIS Il CtHI UdIIOn.
American Medicine comments on
this as follows: "rhe fixed residue
doubtless comes from the fact that the
water used has not been distilled. There
appears TO be no justification whatever
for the claim made in the advertise
ment of this simple mixture. The
cost of its preparation probably does
not exceed l cent per gallon. The pro-
prietors can evidently afford to give
away a million bottles"

of being healed of all sorts of maladies,
it being recommended for al m

THE MARRIAGE QUESTION.

The professor who announced that olove
and romance die out with the sound of the
wedding BELLS" was the first to start the
ball rolling. 1t would seem brave woman
who marries with this echo in her ears yet
we have not heard that there were fewer
marriages during the year. There are UNI
happy married lives, but large PERCENTAGE
of these unhappy homes are due to the ill
ness of the wife, mother or daughter.
During long period of practice, Doctor
Pierce found that prescription made up
entirely of roots and herbs, without the use
of alcohol, cured ninety-eight per cent of
such cases. After using This remedy for

Good Roads

Last Friday night good ROADS

A goodly number of citizens was

time and influence to this great
work.
The meeting will be entertaining
and instructive and may be made very
useful to us. The whole country is
becoming aroused over the necessity
for road improve ment. Bills are
being introduced in every Legislature
this winter, authorizing the appro-
prlation of money for the improve
ment of country roads.
There is now a bill pending in the
u, S. Senate, seeking for a national
appropriation for the betterment or
the roads, The bill provides tor
disbursement of this money among
the states according to population.
Each state will be required to APP
propriate an amount equal to the
amount it receives from the Cow,
Kansas. share % III f,3ud would W
over half million dollars. That
with the state putting up like
amount would give fund of over
one million dollars to be used on
our roads,
This apportioned out among the
counties, requiring each county to
appropriate a sum equal to what it
receives from the state would make
a very large fund, and, If used
iudiciously in the construction OF
roads would make wonderful
Improvement IN our facilities for
getting around and moving our
crops. This policy continued for a

1t is not in the number of her

force in front at least to equal his

Our prediction is that the Japs
have already won the victory and
that the great Manchurlan armies
will never come together unless the
meeting is precipltated very soon
by some unexpected event.
The newspapers and the people
of Russia are aroused and are de-
nouncing the war in unmeasnred
terms. A bitter feeling against the
government is cropping out through
her immense domain. The FIRE is
smouldering and is liable to be
famed into an immense copi1agra
ton at any time. Russia seems to
have her hands full at home and may
need her full mllitery force to h'ld
things down.
We believe peace overlu e. WIZ
soon be made on some pertext that
will let Russia down as easily as
possible and if Japan is not too ex
acting in her demands, a truce
will be fixed up. The war has been
an example of a small country OF
lighters, thoroughly drilled and
equipped in every department going
up against a massive country OF
discordant elements, totally unpre'
pared for war.
