 RAD EFFECT.
Net Over 1I,s00,000 Crop Was Counted On There Was Net Decline of % Points Since
 Saturday.

The estimate given by The New Orleans Tfmes-Democrat yesterday showed 1f.625,- 900 bales for this years cotton crop.t As less than Il, H,5o0o10 bales had been expected as the estimate from this source. the fig ures given out yesterday had depressing effect upon the opening of the market. The opening being ten points lower than Satur- days close.
 This decline was further augmented dur ing the day by a decline of ten more points. making a net decline of twenty points from Saturdays close at the lowest point of the dav.
 The brighter outlook in financial affairs must have given the bulls a new hope and energy and prices were soon lifted hack to Saturdays close. the market closing two points under Saturday.
 y Eleven cents and above for cotton in Montgomery has induced good many hold CTS to part with their cotton as this was the goal which they had set for themselves. Trading has been brisker than for sotne lime The market was quoted unchanged yesterday.

There was good buying on the decline, however. and as the local spot market was reported quiet but not quotabiy lower on the basis of 1.37 for middIing. and as there are not a few who are of the opinion that today s estimate of local Journal was rather above than below probable size of crop. good sup port by traders. with confidence in smaller crop thanse1 100000. and by those who be- lieve consumption will be in excess of such a figure even if the yield should be as large as indicated. had 9 telling effect on the market, which had recovered all of the loss by noon, January having reacted to 11.14.

Aged Joseph Organ Stricken With
Diphtheria--Three Cases Of Pneu-
monia At Unionville

What has not yet been pronounced
n well defined case of diphtheria, but
which has all the indications of the
dread disease, has developed at Mill
City and aged Joseph Organ is the
victim. The case has been treated for
diphtheria and the antitoxin treatment
has been used. The throat is very bad
" liberated and whether the case be
diphtheria or psuedo diphtheria it is a
very serious one and doubts are enter
tanned for the recovery of Mr.. Organ.
DIR. Samuels returned this afternoon
from attendance on the patient.
Pneumcpia at Unionville
DR.. Mangan was called to Union
vile Tuesday to attend c. F. thinner
shead. The patient was found to be
suffering with pneumonia, and in an
adjoining room his aged father, Chas.
Zimmershead, lay stricken with the
same disease.
Everything that friends and kind
neighbors can do is being done, and
although the age of Mr.. Zimmershead
Sr. is unfavorable, the young man "a
chances of recovery are good. If pos.
sible he may be removed to the Win
nemucca sanitarium today.
DR.. Mangan found that infuenza
was quite prevalent at Unionville, and
other case Of pneumonia developing
iherefrom in Myrtle, the daughter OF
Mr.. Taleot. She is doing satisfactorily
and is expected to recover.
Since the above was written, and
late this afternoon a rumor was eur.
rent on the street that Mr.. thinner
shead had passed away. Inquiry from
DIR. Mangan, who has returned from
attending Mr.. Zimmershead, did no.
verify the report and is is perhaps ur.,
true.

them on the Arizona desert Friday

owner Of the water hole, with it's slen-

killed.
Filter two weeks prospecting for
gold on the desert, two young broth

opened fire upon them. When the fight

BATTLE OF BULL
and BUFFALO

Ell PASO, Tex, Jan. 27--For. the
first time in the bull ring a buffalo
and a bull were pitted against each
other in fight in the Juarez arena,
across the Rio Grande from Ell Paso
today. The largest crowd that ever
attended fight in the arena witnessed
the spectacle. Although neither buf-
falo nor bull was killed the buffalo
bested the bull, and the latter animal
was driven from the ring, leaving the
buffalo victorious and both badly bat
tered. A picador narrowly escaped be-
ing tossed on the horns Of the Buffalo
as he prodded him with pole. The
buffalo turned on the man and ran him
across the ring, hooking him just as
he fell behind guard.
The buffalo was the first turned into
the ring( and when the bull entered he
made dash for the buffalo and both
locked horns. The 6ght was fast and
furious for few minutes and then
the animals separated. Once the buffalo
was staggered by the bull as they
rushed together. They clashed sevral
times, until finally the bull became
frightened and refused to fight The
buffalo was brought for the fight from
North Dakota, while the bull came
from vicious fighting stock near Du-
range, Mexico. Ten thousand people
fronl~all over the southwest witnessed
the fight.

PARADISE, Jan. 31.-3 p. m-Re-
port reached here today that a miner
had been blown up at Spring City
about noon. A telephone call came in
from the Lye ranch, which is situated
four miles this side of the camp, for
DIR. Burns. II. Holt was at Spring City
when the accident occurred and he hur-
ried on horseback to the Lye ranch to
summon the doctor. According to the
story over the telephone the accident
happened about mile from the camp.
Two miners were out doing some
blasting and premature explosion
caught one of the miners, tearing of
one hand and blowing both eyes out.
The name of the miner could not be
learned. DR.. Burns left Immediately
for the camp.
J. c. Sewer arrived from Spring
City this afternoon. In speaking of the
dispatch received by the Silver State
he says that the name of the injured
miner is probably Henry Madison OF
Charles Mayoung, for these two were
the only ones engaged in blasting. He
states that both were old and expert

Is in itself proper effort to use the
range for those upon the land and to
prevent it's use by nomadic outsiders.
All these fences, those that are hurtful
and those that are beneficial, are alike
illegal and must come down. But 1t is
an outrage that the law should neces-
state such action on the part Of the
administration. The unlawful fencing
of public lands for private grazing
must be stopped, but the necessity
which Occasioned it must be provided
for. The federal government should
have control of the range, whether by
permit or lease, as local necessities
may determine. Such control could Sc
cure the great benefit of legitimate
fencing, while at the same time Sc
curing and promoting the settlement
Of the country. In some places it may
be that the tracts Of range adjacent to
the homesteads of actual settlers
should be allotted to them severally or
in common for the summer grazing of
their stock. Elsewhere it may be that
lease system would serve the pur-
pose, the leases to be temporary and
subject to the rights of settlement
and the amount charged being large
enough merely to permit Of the ell
cient and beneficial control Of the
range by the government and Of the
payment to the county Of the euuiva.
lent Of what it would otherwise re-
ceive in taxes. The destruction of the
public range will continue until some
such laws as these are enacted. Fully
to prevent the fraud in the public lands
which through the joint action of the
interior department and the depart
ment of justice we have been endeav.
oring to prevent there must be further
legislation and especially sufficient
appropriation to permit the department
Of the interior to examine certain class
es of entries on the ground before they
pass into private ownership The gov.
eminent should part with its title
only to the actual homemaker. not to
the profit maker who does not care to
make home. Our prime object is to
secure the rights and guard the inter-
ests Of the small ranchman. the man
who plows and pitches hay for him
self. 1t is this small ranchman. this
actual settler and homemaker, who in
the long run is most hurt by permit
ting thefts Of the public land in what.

Abolition of Tariff on All Forest Pro.

There should be no tariff on any for
est product grown in this country. and
in especial there should be no tariff on
wood pulp. due notice of change being
of course given to those engaged in the
business so as to enable them to adjust
themselves to the new conditions. The
repeal Of the duty on wood pulp should
1t possible be accompanied by an agree

no export duty on Canadian pulp wood.
Mineral Lands.
In the eastern United States the
mineral fuels have already passed into
the hands Of large private owners, and
those of the west are rapidly follow
ing. It is obvious that these fuels
should be conserved and not wasted.
and it would be we'll to protect the peo-
pie against unjust and extortionate
prices SO far as that can still be done.
What has been accomplished in the
great oil fields of the Indian Territory
by the action of the administration Of
rers striking example of the good re-
suits of such policy. In my judy
ment. the government should have the
right to keep the fee of the coal. Oil
and gas fields in it's own possession
and to lease the rights to develop them
under proper regulations or else. If the
congress will not adopt this method,
the coal deposits should be sold under
Limitations to conserve them as pub.
lie utilities. the right to mine coal be-
ing separated from the title to the soil.
The regulations should permit coal
lands to be worked in sufficient guam
THY by the several corporations. The
present limitations have been absurd,
excessive and serve no useful purpose
and often render it necessary that
there should be either fraud or else
abandonment of the work Of getting
os:t the coal.
