A WHISTLER STORY.
Tho Eagle That Was Made to Pose a.
Fiahtinq Cock,

Anrul.oS az something Whistler once
told ii cockeght story so wildly that
only man with sailor instinct could
tell it as we'll. mimic it so keenly and
enjoy it so thoroughly. 1t was story
of strange species OF the American
cock. pictured to the smallest detail SO
beautifully that one forgot that it was
story.
Some American sailors were at q
cockight in q seaport town in Eng
land when one of them remarked to
the owner of the champion:
we have got an American cock ON
board that can whip any bird here"
Go fetch i'm on said the champion
Chuck i'm in and see. If e iicks one
bird we ave plenty more to throw in

"All right. Well bring one" said tho
sailors. When they got aboard they
rugged up an American eagle. A fter
their own manner, they painted. t'im-
med. spliced and reefel fore and aft

ready they went ashore to pit their
new American gamecock against all

At the pit the sailors chucked in
their cock. which looked around for
other surprises as he backed close to
the wall.
"Now, bring on your BIRDS yelled
the sailors. A strutting cock was

surprise to the poor dismantled eagle.
He backed mp closer and closer to the
wall, wondering what would happen
next. The cock walked three times

Wisconsin Retailer and ,lobber.
Loyalty to the home town, the home
manufacturer, the home merchant, the
home paper, loyalty to all home inter-
ests should be found in the heart of
every man who calls himself citizen of
any town, whether it be prosperous
metropolis of 500, 600 or little village
of 700 people. Our forefathers taught
US to love country. and few, if any, are
the men in America today who do not
put love of country above everything
else What is true of our country is
true Of our home town. If the town is
good enough for us to live in, it de-
serves our support and our approval.
Not always can we agree with the poll
cies exercised by the men in authority,
but we can always bear in mind the
fact that what seems farthest from
right to us may, in the end, prove to be
the only course for the best results. No
matter whether the best results come
or do not come, if we call ourselves citi-
zens and expect to deserve the rights of
citizens of that town let us put our
shoulders to the wheel and push rather
than stand at one side and throw stones
at the rest. History repeats itself, and
now, as in the past, man who is discon-
tented never satisfied with himself, his
neighbor, his country and his home
town-such man has but few short
years to go before he comes to grief.

news that the earth may soen be de-
stroyed by comet, this paper calls the
attention of few delinquent subscrib'
ers to the fact that they should be pre-.
pared for the worst by paying up their
accounts and for year in advance, SC
that they may be able to meet such a
calamity with clear conscience, which

Publication of the session laws in
newspaper supplement form this year is
tremendous undertaking. The number
of laws enacted and the unusual length

sufficient to fill nearly forty newspaper

ment of the law requiring the publica-

The amount of white paper required for
the supplements will be enormous. The
laws will be published by the weekly
newspapers of the state the second
week in August.
-Liveromen throughout the state
will welcome a measure which has been
passed by the legislature making it a
misdemeanor for person hiring horse
from the livery stable to use the animal
for purpose not represented at the
time of hiring The Tribune's admira-
ton and sympathy for the noble horse
is such that it hopes to see the law en-
forced to the limit. The abuse and suf-
fering of the faithful livery horse,
through the deception of irresponsible
parties is of too long standing al
ready. 1t is now up to liverymen to do
their duty in protecting their property
and at the same time humane perform a
act.
Many people do not realize how
prices have advanced in the last decade,
and it is not alone in the manufactured
products, as the following circum-
stance demonstrates: A Wisconsin far
mer, not long ago, went to harness
shop to buy team harness. He found
one that suited him and the price was
$45. The farmer happened to remem-
Der that about a dozen years ago he
had bought harness just like it from
the same dealer for S35, and he men
toned the fact. The dealer went to
his books and found this to be true.
But" said the dealer, my books
show that you did not pay cash for it,
because you did not have the money.
You hauled in 200 bushels of corn and
gave it to me for the $35 harness. Now
will tell you what | will do. If you
will bring me in 200 bushels of corn
will give you the $45 harness, also a
single higgy driving harness worth SIS,

worth IS, one whip and riding bride
worth 81. so, two leather halters worth
$3.50, brush and curry comb worth 81
and rawhide buggy whip worth 81.

HITcHcocK's ACT CRITICISED.
Withdrawal Of Indian Lands Claimed
to Be Unlawful

The select Senate committee appointed
during the last session of Congress to in
vestigate conditions in Indian Territory
made its report to the Senate yesterday
through its chairman, Senator Clark of
Wyoming Brief reference Is made to Sec
rotary Hitchcock's withdrawal of land for
forest reserve purposes and on that sub
ject comment is made as follows:
1.-The committee has carefully considered
this matter and is of the opinion that the
order of withdrawal was without authority
of law. The agreement with the tribes
and the act of Congress approved July 81
1902. authorized and directed the alotments
to be made as soon as practicable and
that law the committee believes cannot be
set aside. impeded or modified except by
act of Congress repeating changing the
original statute. The committee recon-
mends that the surface of the 500 900 acres
of coal lands segregated in 1902 be sold
but that the mineral rights be indefinitely
retained as the property Of the Indians"
The surface land In the 800 900 acre
coal land segregation is estimated to be
worth from $40 to s15 per acre and the
mineral rights from S. to $40 an acre. On
the question of the disposal of this tract
which has been the subject of much COM
ment, the committee recommends:
THAT no immediate action be taken by
Congress as to the leasing or sale Of tho
mineral in said lands. but that immediate
steps be taken to provide for the sale Of
the surface of said segregation for the
best price obtainable. in tracts not exceed
tiers. reserving from sale sufficient
amount of surface for the necessary out
side works, buildings and operation Of
