Owen, Wyo., March 16, 1908.


To the Editor of The Republican.
l wish to write you a few lines in
answer to some of the items l have
seen in your good paper on the lease
land question.
Three Garrett men and one mail car
rier have written to your paper OF
late, making great spells on the lease
question.
Whites Gates.
Now, then, | believe White is right
on the gate question, for we have a
few fences on government land in this
part of the country and the owners
make great threats when the gates
are left open, and also state that
they will not take their fences down.
Small Ranchmen.
Now, if | were in your places, i
would sell out to the sheepmen and
start trapping, for a man with nine or
ten head of cattle cannot make his salt
on one of these dry gulches, for all
they are good for is sheep. If l were
this man with nine or ten head of cat
tie, l would let my place go back to the
government and let the sheep come in,
for they would bring in all kinds Of
wild animals, and then | would make
bait u of my cattle and start trap.

Owen Ranchmen.

Two owen ranchmen, ~possessors CT
n COW, and it mortgage for ten dol
lars more than it is worth, called upon
d gentle shepherd who was grazing
his sheep on leased land n ordered
him off and tried to make his dog
drive the sheep off. The herder would
not let his dog go, so they told him
that they killed sheep herders for less
than he had done. And wren they saw
that their bluff did not stick, they took
a sneak. Now, then, what do you
think about that kind of a man? Would
you call him a citizen or a vagabond?
This country is made up of nine-tenths
of this kind of people, n according
to that what good does it do to lease

Calamity How rs.

My opinion is that the most of these
people are calamity howlers that don
possess more than two or three cow
and about that many ponies whicf
they S to ride around with to swar
lies with their n%eighbors. The best
thing they could do is to get a position
as herder from some good honest sheer
man. They would be better off than il
they were leaning up against a snub
bling post in their corral studying hoH
they were going to get their neighbors
calves wren they turn out.
Sheepmen.
We also have some dishonest sheep
men in this country, especially those
big Incorporated sheep companies
Now then, this sheep outfit that graz
ed the widows range off haven't got
any heart of their own.
Yours very truly

Home of Tokay Grapes.

THE greatest grape producing re-
gion in the world is the title claimed
by San Joaquin county, California. The
average yield in France is 2.7 tons to
the acre. The average for California
is two tons an acre, while that for
San Joaquin county is four tons an
acre.
Lodi is the center of this district,
shipping last year grapes to the value
of a million and half dollars. As
only two-thirds of the Lodi vineyards
are now in bearing it is declared that
their yield will soon reach six tons
an acre, almost three times that of
any other region in the world.
The Flame Tokay is the great Lodi
grape. In September last year the
town held a Tokay carnival. lasting
three days, the whole town being
decorated with vines and grapes and
the streets lined with booths where
every step of the history of the grape.
from making cutting of vine to
loading and icing cars, was illustrated
by the actual work.

Test Of the Gyroscope.

A practical test of the use OF the
gyroscope for steadying vessels at sea
was made recently in England on the
Seebar. formerly first-class German
torpedo boat. with a displacement of
56.2 tons. The apparatus installed
consists of heavy fy-wheel rotating
about an axis, and carried by frame
which can oscillate about a horizontal
axis, the oscillating motion of the
frame being checked by brakes. The
wheel is 40 inches in diameter weighs
LOG pounds, makes 1000 revolutions
per minute, and is steam driven. The
periphery is provided with blades and
works like a turbine, the wheel being
inclosed like a casing. In the tests
with the gyroscope out of action the
roll was IA degrees. while the boat
was kept steady with the machine
acting.

While passing along the main street (of
our city last Saturday. my attention was
arrested by seven or eight young men,
ranging in age apparently from z to 20
years, making a rush for the open door
of saloon, where soon money. morals
and manhood were lost to sight behind
screen and swinging doors. The motive
for this can easily be surmlzed; someone
undoubtedly suggested treat" a Gus
tom altogether too common. Are not
even our soda fountain and soft drink
places in danger Of becoming kinder
garteh schools for the saloons.
Would it not be wise for parents to be
juoieious in liberties granted TO their child
rem. Would it not be wholesome thing
if someone Of a benevolent spirit would
organize an "AnS-treating Society" and
induce every boy and girl of the city to
become a member The treat" should
be under the ban. For the custom form
ed here is to easily transferred to the
saloon and becomes a leeoh on our body
polite. In conversations with prof
essonal man, of high repute, Of the city,
who had been approached as a possible
candidate for mayor: he said 81 could not
think of.such thing for moment, unless
! had at least two years to line them up. "
ITO line them up Ali that's the rub.
They must be lined up Who9 the Masons
and the Oddfellows9 If the balance OF
power were vested in them we might feel
comparatively safe. But here is the riff
raf rag-tag element hanging Changing,
around the saloons, trafficking in sacred
things; selling their vote to the man who
will put up the most drinks.
Let the treating custom be abolished
let the baneful institution, that has become
an intolerable burden, veritable nuisance
be blotted out. Let this vast sum OF
money be turned into the legitimate chan
nels Of trade, or better than that, directed
toward some worthy enterprise for the
culture and refinement Of our citizens.
We have two institutions running side
by side, the saloon and the public schools
One fostered by the lowest society the
other by the best. One costing the city
$50 600 year. The other direct tax
$4,000 to $4,000 We are spending
Sls00 a year to construct the child. and
$40 90 to demoralze him, and are hoping
the ideal citizen will be product Of such
a system. Why not take this money
that IS worse than wasted directing for
one year toward a new high school build
ing, equipped with all the modern appli-
anoes for advance work ? A building
that would be pride to the city; and an
inspiration to every child that would enter
its halls. G. F. Craig.

Aside from all theories, all ideaity upon
the subject. marrying on small salary
has but little poetry in it, says The De-
signer for May. The fret and strain Of
keeping within bounds, the needs of the
children as they appear within the circle,
the pressure Of care. Of planning to make
an enlastio income expand to dimen-
sions it was never intended to reach, are
the little daily dyings Of self that bring
the lines Of premature age upon the fair
est face and ruffle the sweetest temper
There is but one thing that can compen-
safe for fading youth, beauty, and social
ambition for which the restricted income
is responsible, and that is mutual love
the love that works out in the world for
the love at home. and the love at home
that works beneath the roof-tree because
it is worked for. lived for and hoped for
above all other women.

A movement is in progress for the es-
tablishing of public fountain in this city
For long time Mrs. T. j. Clemens has
been impressed with the idea that public
drinking fountain would be a fine i'm
provement to our city and she has been
interesting the WC.T.U ladies and bust
ness men in the project and the good
work now seems to have attained defin-
tie results.
1t is proposed to solicit subscriptions to
a fund for the purpose of purchasing one
and have it installed on some convenient
corner Of business street, and commit
tees for that purpose have or will be soon
appointed. 1t is the plan of the ladies to
get good one, costing about Sl00,
which will not only accommodate the
thirsty pedestrian, but to have a receiving
basin also near the ground which shall
serve as place for dogs to quench their
thirst also. The movement is good one,
and the ladies should receive substantial
encouragement in theirSlaudabe under

working at their Triple Horizontal Bar

Revolving Ladder work, the boys have
added the Triple Horizontal Bar work to
their list of acts, and this branch Of their
business includes some hair-raising acts
that will surley bring them much applause.
They expect to have this act up-to-date
by the first Of July, and ready for business.
The Bedding Business Mems Association
are trying to arrange for something in

to give them date sometime during the

Mr.. Gnns, travelling man from Bos-
ton, who was stopping at Hotel Belding
over Sunday, had close call from
drowning. In company with Ross Hol-
land Of this city ne was riding in a canoe
on the river. Both were padding, and
when above the bridge opposite the park,
sudden lurch tipped the craft over.
Holland Immediately struck out for shore,
being good swimmer, but Ginns chung to
the boat, which gave him poor protection.
He went down a half dozen times, and
once it was thought by onookers from
the bank he would not rise again, but he
bobbed up smiling and some one threw
him a plank from the pier and hauled
him in. Homer Hutchinson was all ready
to make life-saving station of himself. as
ne had stripped ready for dive at the
critical moment.
Ginns, who is a Jew, said it was the
closest call he ever had, as he went to
the bottom once and laid flat in the mud.
He said he was not afraid to ride in a
canoe again, but he would go alone and
do his own padding
