Reno, New, March 19.-The Truckee
river has dropped three feet since yes

ing the parties agreed to the dividing
line, marking the division by section
lines according to the government sur.
vey, and these were embodied in an
agreement which was formally signed
by all hands, both associations direct
ing their officers to attach their sigma
lures. Instead Of a war to the knife
and the knife to the hit, as in some
counties in the state, there was the
olive branch and the %futtering Of the
wings of the dove that bore it. There
is no war, no knife, no hilt and no
bitterness.

The following resolution was adopt.
ed as the unanimous sense Of the meet

hereby agree to protect each others
interests against all outsiders who

the country"
Bell Is Pleased.
Among the callers at The Repub-
lican office following the adjournment
of the meeting were Colonel E. J. Bell,
Frank Mcdonald and Oscar Solder,
green, and a better pleased lot of men
one seldom sees. Mr.. Bell says the
action of the cattlemen and sheepmen
of Albany county should be an inspira'
ton to the stockmen of other counties,
and he hoped the Associated Press and
metropolitan correspondents would
take co%gnizance of the matter and gel
it before the people of the west. The
other gentlemen wele equally delighted
Mr.. Olson and Mr.. Eggleston believe
that a forward step has been taken.

some of his friends have been good
enough to think Of him in connection
with the position, he is not to be con.
sidered a candidate for the place. 1t is
almost certain, from information at
hand, that Mr.. Ausherman will decline

FOR
THE FARE
SECRETARY KUSTER RETURNS
FROM LovELAND MEETING
FEELING VERY GOOD.
Six Cities, including Douglas, Com
prise Circuit, With Added Purses
for Better Class Of Races and En-
thusiasm for AII-State Fair Add
ed to List Of Fairs,

Secretary Charles F. Kuster of the
Albany County and Inter-Mountain
Fair association, who attended a meet
ing OF the officers of the Northern Colo
RADIO and Wyoming Racing circuit at
Loyeland, Colo, returned Sunday
night, having spent that day at Fort
Collins with the horses belonging to
the Frank Erwin string, in which he is
interested. The horses in the Fort Col
Inns stables, he says, are doing splen-
didly, getting into shape earlier than
last year. Particularly is this true of
College Maid, who will be paced this
year to beat some Of the records held
on the tracks of this section. All the
other horses are in good condition,
also.
State Fair Admitted.
At Loveland the meeting disposed of
some important matters in connection
with the racing circuit. Carson Adams
Of Douglas, secretary of the state fair
board, was present n entered the
state fair as a member of the associa-
ton. Brighton, Colo, withdrew, leav-
ing six cities forming the organiza-
ton, the following officers being
chosen:
President-A. c. Camp, jr., Greeley.
Vice President-Charles F. Kuster,
Laramie.
Secretary-Treasurer E. MCNEIL,
Loveland.
Dates for Fairs Fixed.
agreed upon the following dates for the
fairs to be held at the six cities form
ing the circuit, the week Of the
dates being selected, and l.,cal boards
to select the days of the week in which
to hold their fairs. The Laramie fair
will be held on three days. The dates
are as follows:
Greeley, August II.
Longmont, August 18.
Fort Collins, August 25.
Loveland, September 1.
Laramie, September s.
I Douglas, state fair, September %.
The date selected for Laramie will
allow the exact dates, September IL,
~ and 10, decided Upon by the board
here a few days ago, to stand.
Bio Stakes Added.
Among the other important matters
disposed Of was the decision to add
two $1,000 stakes to each of these
fairs. These will include one 2:15
pace and one 2:2O trot, with new and
faster horses e here in recent
years, and greater interest not alone
in Laramie but in each Of the other
cities comprising the circuit. The date
from the Laramie to the Douglas meet
ing embraces two weeks, but horsemen
say this is a splendid idea, as the trip
between the two places is the most Sc
we're they have to make, and 1t will
allow the horses to get fully rested
after leaving Laramie.
Nominations to Close.
The nominations for these two stakes
will be made on the same dates at all
the cities in the circuit, May Is, and
the horses will be named June 20.
There is already considerable discus
sion of the coming race meetings, and
Secretary Kuster believes the purses
will attract better horses to Laramie
than ever before.

Didn't Mind the Ladder.

A ladder leaned against store
front in Nassau street, near Spruce,
yesterday afternoon. It's foot was so
far out that it was easier far for one
to go, under it than to pass outside
it.
Every one knows it is considered
bad luck to walk under ladder. Did
many of the crowd hurrying toward
the bridge pay Difference to that SUI
perstition?
A man in hurry paused half
minute to see.
Out of thirty who passed only
seven avoided the supposed hoodoo.
Those seven must have done it out
of superstition, because it would
have been easier for them to go I'M

three did.

According to the British Medical
Journal the most remarkable trades
union in the world is in the south of
France. At meeting of the lame,

buttons from the public, recently
held at Marseilles, an organization
was formed for suppressing an un-
qualified practicable encroachment
Of pretenders. At first blush 1t
would appear that such movement
should be encouraged. Begging, in
dividual and allied, seems to be nee
essary and. perhaps. it should be
conducted Systematically and in ac-
cordance with the up-to-date order
OF things generally. But our stock
of fairly satisfactory excuses for,
holding on to our own and refusing
to be charitable has never been any
too large, surely, and if every mendi-
cant who approaches presents q union
card and we cannot excuse ourselves
on the ground that we are doubtful
about the gsnuineness of the cork

arms it is evident that the drainage
of our resources will increase rather
than diminish our present embarrass-
ments.-Providenc lR. ID Journal.
