Strange Sheep Disease.

POCATELLO. May ga strange
disease is prevailing among the sheep
in the Soda Springs region in the east
ern part of Bannock county. The
symptoms are sudden seizure with
crazy fits followed by a rapid swell
ing Of the Sleeps head, a straw coll
ored puss exuding from the ears and
eyes. Most of the sheep affected die
in few hours. others linger for days
and those that recover lose their wool.
The disease does not seem to be con-
tagious, as healthy sheep inoculated
with the blood of affected animals do
not suffer.
The federal bureau of animal in
dustry has sent DR.. H. ]. Frederick,
professor Of veterinary science In the
Brigham Young college at Logan,
Utah. to Soda Springs to make an in
vestigation. A number Of sheep in the
southern part of Utah are similarly
effected. The federal bureau is great
ly alarmed at the spread of the dis
ease.

WEST WILL

Washington Correspondent
Sizes Up the Sentiment
In Northwest

CLAUDE c. Watts, Washinton COR
responuenI OF Inc cleveland Leader,
reacned salt Lake cay sunday on a
tour OF ponucai investigation" says
the tepuDiIcan. "Mr. Watts expects
TO VISIT every state in the Union be-
fore returning to Cleveland. The
Cleveland Leader is one of the fore
most Tart advocates, and Mr.. Watts
mission is to ascertain the public pulse
on presidential subjects.
There is no installing the strength
of President Roosevelt and the Roose-
welt policies throughout the Middle
West and West said Mr.. Watts. i
have visited some is states already,
and in every one of them the over
whelming majority of the Republicans
is with the national administration. II
lit were understood that Roosevelt
would accept denomination. I believe
he would have the delegations from
every one of those states without a
contest. With the president elimina-
ted, the rank and file of the party
turns natura ly to the man who is rec
ognized as thoroughly representative
Of the principles that have so popular
lied the Roosevelt administration
Secretary Taft.
"Tn the coast states the Roosevelt
sentiment is especially strong. and I'M
less the information have gathered is
wholly unreliable. I think 1t is fore
gone conclusion that California, Ore
lgon, Washington, Idaho and Montana
will send delegations to the national
convention next year that will line up
with the administration forces In sup
port OF Secretary Taft. California may
be dominated by Southern Pacific
railroad interests-which means e. HI.
Harriman-and arrayed against the
administration II there should appear
a fair chance OF nominating an anti
Roosevelt man, but the sentiment Of
the rank and file of the party in the
state is undoubtedly with the adminis-
tration.
Frankly, have been surprised to
learn how strong the presidents hold is
on the people of the great West /
have talked with man after man who
has said that MS is for any presiden-
tial candidate whom Roosevelt wants,
and that is a pretty strong kind Of 10y
atty and support.
cit is, of course, dificult to figure
on the conditions that will obtain a
year from now. but the indications
now are that the contest for. the RE-
publican nomination will lie between
Secretary Taft and Vice President
Fairbanks. and 1t is my Judgment that
the odds greatly favor the Ohio man. "

NOVEL TEST
FOR HORSES
Staying Qualities Of Cayuse
Might be Interesting
Factsr

A novel test of the staying qualities
Of the Arabian horse, famed in history
and romance for its marvellous endur-
ance, will be conducted by the war de-
partment of the United States this
summer The test is to consist of a
trip in the saddle overland from Ore
gon to New York on a pure bIooded
Arabian stallion belonging to Homer
Davenport, the cartoonist, Of New
York city.
The test trip is open to any one who
desires to enter 1t, one OF the objects
being to discover, If possible. what
breed Of horse is the best adapted to
the cavalry service of the army. Gen.
eral John B. Castleman of Kentucky
has entered thoroughbred which will
be ridden by Lieutenant w. o. Reed of
the Sixth cavalry, now at Fort Yell
lowstone, wyo. other Kentucky
breeders desire to enter. standard
bred, a regular saddle horse and a
Morgan. There is some talk of Ohio
entering a mule, while Virginia will
find horse of the hunter type to COM
pete. There is one section Of the
country that has so far not been heard
from, and that is the Northwest. ID
A. Reyes, a second lieutenant of the
Sixth cavalry, Is very DESTROYS that
this section enter horse for the test
as he says 1t will be great ADVERTISE
ment for any horse raiser to have an
animal in this contest.
Lieutenant Reed suggests horse OF
about 16 hands in height, weighing In
the neighborhood of 1900 pounds, be-
tween and 10 years old, and good
walker. There will be no cruelty t.
the animals, as they will receive the
best care and feed that 1t is possible
to give them and they will not b.
pushed beyond the distance they car
comfortably make in day.
The ride is not simply sporting
proposition but a business one, which
will be watched with deep interest b,
breeders and users Of horsehesl
throughout this country and Europe
AS the national government is nov
paying about 5000 a head for It's ami
mails for the cavalry and artiller,
service, it is matter Of much i'm
portance to know where to find tn
best horses for the purpose require,
at the price allowed.
