pastured there affected with ScabisS

lime, "a lbs. of sulphur to 100 gallons
of water. The dip should be kept at
temperature of 105to 10 degrees

comes filthy it shall be renewed re-
gardless of the number of cattle
dipped in the same.
E. J. Eveleigh, of Boyd. has built a
modern dipping plant at his ranch on
the Cheyenne Bottom. and will begin
dipping on the 18th of this month.

of DR.. Eichhorn in bull ding the same,
sparing nothing to make it answer the
purpose. The dip will be heated
with a steam boiler, and the dip
boiled by steam. Mr.. Eveleigh, in
dipping cattle, will strictly follow. the
government regulations as only by
carrying out the work thoroughly can
the disease be eradicated.

Warrington Selected.

Washington, June 15.-Washing-
ton was selected today as the meeting
place for the Japanese Russian war
commissioners.
The following statement has been
issued from the White House. "When
Russia and Japan, having been un
able to agree upon either Chefoo or
Paris, President Roosevelt suggested
The Hague, but both governments
requested that Washington be chosen
for the meeting of the plenipoten-
tiaries. The president accordingly
notified both governments that
Washington would be selected"
If after the organization of the
plinipotentiaries the city of Wash
ington is found to be too hot, it is ex-
pected that the meeting will be trans
ferred to some northern summer re-
sort.

ULTIMATE SELF GOVERNMENT.
Secretary Taft Gives Utterance to This
Sentiment in speech.

Oxford, O., June 15.-Secretary of
war Taft delivered the address at the
commencement exercises of Miami
university today. In his address he
paid high tribute to Roosevelt in
connection with the latter's efforts
for peace between Russia and Japan,
and said that the confidence reposed
IN Roosevelt's impartiality and
integrity had doubtless aided the
American national prestige in secur-
ing results. Regarding the Phil
lippines he said "The islands were
forced upon US against our will as a
trust to be administered. We don't
for moment contend that they will
be anything but burden to US. 1
believe that ultimate self government
will be best for all the people. Con-
slant labor and attention will prepare
them to enjoy the blessings of civil
liberty" The secretary enthusiastic
ally commended Booker Washington's
work along the line of an Industrial
education for the egro. He also
said that the present NAL administra-
tion of the countries criminal laws
was one of the greatest evils of the
day. He decried the divorce evil
and recommended uniform statutes
be enacted, and concluded by saying
the salaries of federal officials was
entirely too low.

Taxing Coffee

For some four or FIVE years there
has not been much discussion about
the tariff. This has led some of the
more radical high protectionists to
come out of their shells, ani try to
drag the country further in the direc-
ton of high tariff.
Atpresent there is a deficit in the
national treasury, which has been
growing for some months and while
the wiseacres in the republican party
have been making light of it, others
have been seeking some way in which
to stop the leak. New Yorkers ac-
cording to Walter Wellman, seem to
have found way, and that is putting
tax of three cents per pound on
coffee. They are not content with
taxing housekeeping that is worn
or eaten by the poor man, but must
now tax his coffee. OF course the
cry of the full dinner pail will be
made to the laboring man, but what
does that avail him If it costs him
more than formerly to keep that pail
full. How long are the laboring
classes going to stand this busiaess
anyway.

Along in the sos the name was
