LARGE RANCHES IN MEXICO.
Foreigners as Well as Natives Have
Immense Holdings.

Ranches in Mexico are of no mean
size. Ex-Gov. Terrazas of Chihuahua
has 1900, 900 acres. The Zuloaga
family is said to hold 5,0O0,0 O0. Prop
critics of 100000 and 2,000,0OO acres
are not uncommon. Among the Amer
leans who have large ranches may be
mentioned Fleming G Ross, the River
side Cattle company, with 100000
acres and a fine herd of Herefords;
Phoebe Hearst, of California, who has
a magnificent place west of Minaca;
the Millers and three Mormon col
onies. Gordon, Ironsides & Ferriss. a
Canadian company, have 100000
acres; Lord Beresford, a relative OF
the admiral, has a large ranch where
he raises fine horses ;another English,
man, named Irmstead, owns a large
property. Smaller places of from 49,
900 acres upward are numerous. The
price of land now runs from 80 to 10
cents gold per acre, with a strong
tendency to rise.-Modern Mexico.

While the quarantining Of Albany
county by the sheep commission is a
drastic remedy for scabies, it is the on
ly legal and safe one. A few years
ago when the commission was clean
ing up wyoming, Albany was the only
clean county and now it appears the
tables are turned N it is the only

termed the irony of fate. Another

that is the fact that the government

Honor to Whom Honor is Due


While the Leader has freely crlti-
cised Ex-Governor Chatterton in the
matter of his connection with the Wyo-
ming Central Irrigation company, we
feel that he Is entitled to especial com
mendation for his splendid work in the
promotion and building of railroads
| within the borders of this state.
To his credit IL must be said that no
has practically accomplished the build
ing of two roads, one now in operation
and n in process of construction, and
has worked up the details of a third
line which may also become a practi,
cal reality.
To secure these roads for Wyoming,
MIR. Chatterton, with an unwavering
determination which amounts to posi-
tive genius, has fought three formidable
railroad systems, the Union Pacific, the
Northwestern and the Colorado and
Southern, after patiently and industri-
oasly working out all the details OF his
projected roads from the Incorporation,
surveys, franchises, securing rights Of
way and getting them properly
financed.
His very complete and thorough or,
ganization of the projected line from
Casper to Lander compelled the North.
western to build that road when they
purchased the surveys. rights of way
and franchises he had secured. And
We are informed by good authority that
Lefore he would transfer these rights
they had to agree to construct the road
within a given period.
The line from Grand Encampment to
Wolcott was the creation of his indus
try and enterprise, and he succeeded
only after a fierce struggle with the
Unioo Pacific road, in putting that line
in process of construction.
The line projected from Denver to
IGaho was so strong in its preliminary
organization and backing that several
rig railroads at once became alarmed
over prospective loss of territory and
the Colorado and Southern summoned
their managers to Fort Collins to give
a big dinner to the city officials and
business men in a grand effort to head
| of the Chatterton project and prevent
him from getting necessary franchises
in that city.
Without financial means, almost soil
tary and alone, without a word of CON.
m%endation from even his political as.
sociates, and confronted by obstacles
that would have appalled, any but a
stout heart, Mr.. Chatterton has accom-.
plished wonders, and his work will
stand as a monument Of energy and
ability such as no other man can point
to in the matter of railroads in Wyo-
ming.
Honor to whom honor is due.-Chey.

One Of the Best.

Under the caption of "a Great Vermont
Farmer" Walter MKeen of Fryeburg, Me-,
SAYS in the n. V, Tribune Farmer in part
81 recently made a somewhat extended
tour of the State OF Vermont in farmers
institute work, and ! found much that is
worthy OF note in the management of these
institutes, in their success as teachers of ad
vanced agricultural ideas, in the general con-
dition of the people and the farms Of the
state and in the future possibilities of these
hillside farms as producers of agricultural
wealth.
George W. Aitkin, the director of the
born organizer and farmer. He has natural
love for nature in all her forms, and through
this love has been able so to study her ways
that he can bring wonderful results from his
efforts along all lines. He casts his eye upon
the hills and streams OF the estate he manages
and they put on lines and forms of beauty
and usefulness. He surveys the broad inter
walls of the river valley and they spring into
wealth producing areas second to uone in the
country. He takes under his care all the
farm animals, and they drop into their proper
places and become at once objects of beauty
and of profit, each the best of the class it
represents. AS his work is so closely allied
to the agriculture of the state, cannot refrain
from speaking of it somewhat in detail.
The Billings estate in Woodstock, which he
manages, consists of two thousand acres. 1t
contains fertile interval land, sloping hillsdes
and rugged hills. Through it mountain
streams wind their devious ways toward the
sea, and on it every specie of tree or shrub
indigenous to the soil finds home. 1t is
bounded on every side by public way, and
through its confines wind fifteen miles OF
private roads. Most of these roads have been
built by Mr.. Aitkin himself, and they are
models in their way. The highest point of
land on the estate, old Mount Tom, has been
reached by one of these roads This road
winds around the points and angles of the
mountain, and in one place crosses a dehle
by a solid stone fill, thirty.fve feet wide and
thirty five feet deep. This road is gravellet
from top to bottom of the mountain, and is in
first class condition, even after the hardest
thunder shower.

71s Massacre and Explanations.

The first dispatch announcing the
brilliant victory" of our soldiers over
the Moros conveyed the information that
it was a clean sweep, 10 to 600, many of
the latter women and children. A great
many of our best people were frozen with
horror as they realized the completeness
of the massacre, and somebody felt called
on to explain and the explanation was
that it was unavoidable. But that did
not satisfy the public conscience, and
the explanation was amended so as to
convey the information that there were
not so many women and children
slaughtered as were at first reported.
Still, the public conscience, was annoy
ed and cried out and the explanation was
further amended so as to show that the
children slain were held by their parents
to protect them from the bayonets of our
Christian soldiery. The public was I'M
reasonable enough to condemn that even,
and now they say there were no women
and children killed at all.
On the whole, it is encouraging-it
evidences the power of public opinion.
Had there been such a force in Spain
above three centuries ago, we make no
doubt that the stories of Pizarro and
Cortez would have been differently writ,
and most of the blame put on the Next
cans and Puruvians. who were dead, and
who told their tales before another and
an inscrutable Judgment Seat, some
thing that certain dead, impolitic, and
unfortunate Moros are doing right now
perhaps.
Gen. Wood asks that Col. Scott be
heard in his behalf. We have heard Col
Scott, and Col. Scott drops into recrimi-
nation. Now, there is eminent author
ity for it that recrimination is always
confession of guilt. When Rome, in
ancient times, and England, in modern,
perpetrated unusually atrocious massa-
ores, the excuse was that the victims
were bands of robbers, outlaws, cut
Threats, and not fit to live in the presence
of civilization.

eloquence on 1.-THE Nabob of Arcots

pines. Hyder Ali did not do his bloody
work more thoroughly than has Leonard
Wood, the great difference being one was
Mohammedan and the other is a
Christian.
Such Republicans as Thomas B. Reed,
George F. Hoar and George S. Boutwell,
hoped that we would leave such devils
tolls to Europe; but we are become a
world power, and, it seems, one of the
duties Of world power is the exercise
of might.
But we are glad that Gen. Wood felt
called on to explain. Pity that no Moro
was left among the living whom he could
introduce for purposes of vindlcation.-
