The Record in justice to saloon
men will say hat a majority of those
in Roswell are opposed to the propo-
sition of the gamblers to defy the
law during the cattlemen's conven-
ton. The saloon mel realize that it
is against their interests to encour-
age lawlessness. There is already a
strong sentiment against their bust
ness, and in s~elf-defense they must
help to preserve order.

declared that warrants against the
same men will be issued and served

The editor of the Record, being a
Democrat, n a Kentuckian to boot,
is not a Prohibitioaist-but ne be-
lieves in high license and strict regu-
lation of the liquor traffic. There are
thousands of people who are willing
to concede that the liquor traffic
seems to be a necessary evil-and yet
these same people, When the saloon
men defy the law and try to domi-

manufacturer of whiskey and derives

heads that they owned the whole

eyes, stranger, man sometimes
goes lacoed from herding sheep.
I reckon it is solitude If you had
been with Hank and I the winter
we took a herd of sheep up in a
valley of the Shoshone Mts. to feed,
you would have thought we were
both lacoed. We had pretty
good shack and there was good
sheep shed, but the corral did not
suit rs, because a mountain lion
OF bobcat could climb over the
fence. Hank had one of them
brilliant ideas of his, so he rides
over to Cody and buys few hum
dred feet of woven wire fence and
charges it up to the company.
We nailed cross pieces to the fence
posts and then tackled our wire up
on the under side. A lion or bobcat
could climb up until he got to the
wire, then he would have to stop,
because the wire slanted out so
far it was impossible to climb over.
''Things went fine for a while.
We hadn't seen or heard a lion for
some time and we were feeling
pretty secure. was slapping
Hank on the back for his good
idea and thinking of the peaceful
sleep I would be having during
the winter. Well, one morning
when we went out we found half a
dozen sheep scattered around with
their throats cut lion fashion.
Hank was roaring mad. He even
accused me of hearing noise in the
night and that Twas too lazy to get
up and investigate, just as tho q
man could hear anything when he
was sleeping, for Hank is one of
the loudest sleepers in Montana.
"'All fired curious says Hank,
that the dogs didn't make any
noise; they are making enough
now
WELL says I, we are short six
sheep and that means SO much
wages.
"Yes, and by doggie if you don't
find the hole where the lion got in
at, you will be short a heap sight
more
"You see, stranger, it was in the
contract that we must pay for all
sheep killed by wild animals while
the sheep were in our care. Those
that died from natural causes
didn't cost us a cent, but Hank was
too straight to have any die from
natural causes when they didn't.
We couldn't find where the lion
had crawled into the corral, so we
thought we would sit up all night
and watch. Hank sat at one win
dow and 1 at the other. I looked
out of that window until my eyes
ached, and the first thing I knew
it was daylight. Hank was fast
asleep and was making a noise
like a locomotive with busted
whistle. I hit him on the back
and told him to wake up before he
broke his neck or cracked his
lungs.
Hank swore that he had just
dropped off to, sleep, that twice
during the night he had been out
to the corral and had heard MOTH
ing. We went to the corral and
found sheep scattered broadcast.

at once began, using bad language;
he blamed me and the dogs for the
loes, and to show me how he felt,
he kicked Shep. That was enough
for me and we mixed. When we
came apart, Hank was minus two
front teeth; | had a pair of blue
blinkers.
while we we're scrapping, Shep
had been trailing the lion and had
stopped at the corner of our shack
and was barking. We went over
there and could tell by the tracks
and the claw marks on the edge of
the roof, that the lion had jumped
up on the roof and from there to the
top of the fence, done his cleaning
up and then went back the same
way.
"Doggone him., said Hank, I
will fix him. We will make trap
out of the old grub box and set it
here at the corner of the shack.
He can jump onto that aud then
onto the roof, and when I give the
word you pull the string and pull
out the peg. When he jumps
back onto the box, the lid will tin
and he will fall in
"We set our trap and laid in
wait for him. 1t was about two
a. M. when we heard him jump on
to the box and then onto the roof.
'Now!' yells Hank, and pulled
the string. The lion ran back
across the roof and dropped onto
the box. When he struck it, the
lid tilted and we had him. Now
we will put him into the shed.

there but half a barrel of tar and
an old feather tick, SD if he gets
out of the box he can't do any

The rapid spread of the night

store to betake the tired body and
weary brain to night school there
to wrestle for two or three hours
with problems in arithmetic, Eng
lish grammar, spelling, etc. One
gratifying feature of the night
school is the svidity with which
the illiterate foreigners take to the
innovation. A knowledge of Eng

the part of these people cannot be
too strongly commended.
Judge Cleland of the Chicago
municipal court has since Feb. l,
last, paroled 900 offenders against
the peace and dignity of the ordi-
nances of the Windy City. The
usual practice of police courts is
to give such offenders, who are
usually plain DRINKS, So to ten
days in the Bridewell. Judge
Cleland has changed this practice
and the paroled men have been
visited casually and often by bus
mess men who volunteered for
this service. Of the number pa
rolled only 81 broke their paroles;
1913 made good. Is not this a
powerful argument in favor of
Judge Cleland's policy? These
men we're on probation for certain
periods but were still permitted to
be with their families, and to labor
for and care for them. Vengeance
should have no place in society's
endeavor to protect itself from the
evil doer. Restoration to decency
and manhood should be the goal,
and the means best adapted to
achieve this result should be the
one to be adopted.
