The members of the recently elected
village council in Prospects Heights
are either great humorists. have sud-
denly been seized with Spartan-like
virtue, or are very mercenary. Which
of these is the true explanation We
are unable to state with absolute GER
tainty, but are inclined to impute to
them the latter motive in accounting
for their unexpected conduct a few
nights ago.
At the municipal election there on
Tuesday Gustave Oleson was re-elect-
ed mayor and Louis Pirc, Tony Adam
ic and G. Ricchuth, trustees, sue
ceeding William Loughtery. John
Kemmic and John Neusick. as men,
bers OF the village board.
The council was convened for Or
ganization the following evening. at
which time application was made by
F. P. Goldsberry and Dave Blythe,
Cesare Juiliani and James Govern for
the renewal of their saloon licenses.
but they were turned down cold on
the ground that their places of busi-
ness had not been conducted with
that dignity and decorum compatible
with the liquor trade in Prospect
Heights, hence they were a menace
to the peace and quiet OF the commun-
ity.

CATTLE BUSINESS GROWING
RAPIDLY IN THIS COUNTY

10ll Witcner OI WebI rOuI nilc anu
George v. Rogers OF Park county. who
are among the best known and most
successful cattlemen in this section Of
the state, left here on the Santa Fe
train Wednesday for Ell Paso.
Texas, for the purpose of buying eight
or nine thousand head of yearling.
southern bred, steers to be brought
here and pastured on the ranges along
Currant and Wilson creeks in the
northwestern part OF this county.
II the purchase is made, as there is
every reason to believe 1t will, it will
be one OF the biggest transactions Of
the kind in the history of the cattle
business in this locality.
Mr.. Witcher sold out his cattle in
terests last year, but 1t was for the
purpose of re-engaging in it on still
larger scale with Texas bred stock as
the basis OF the industry. 1t has been
that cattle grow larger
and are more hardy when fed on the
grasses along the upper slopes Of the
than they do when reared
on the plains, hence are more profit
able to the owner. On the other hand
the percentage OF calves is greater on
the lowlands than in the mountain
districts and many OF the more pro-
gressive ranchers bring the young
stock here from Texas, Kansas, Ne
braska and other states. where it il
kept until it gets to be four years of
age when 1t is in condition for the
market.
Much of the stock sold at Fl PaSo Is
raised on the ranges OF chihuahua and
Sonora in Old Mexico. thousands Of
head OF which every year find their
way to Colorado to be fsttened for
market. .r-.
In the former state grazing ccDces-
sions have been granted by the gov
ernment to companies and individuals
and a few people control the cattle
business. which is one Of great inn
portance TO the welfare OF the coun-
try. ,.
Mr.. Witcher expects to purchase
five thousand head OF young steers on
his own account and Mr.. Rogers about
3 1000 head. 1t will require fosr or
five special trains to bring them here,
the first OF which u expected to ar
rive in the course OF the nsxt ten days
or two weeks .,s .-.,
They win probably be unloaded at
Howard. or some other point=f IN The
western part OF the county, and ,driv-
en- to the pastnrass grounds where
they will feed upon the bunch grass
along the eastern slope OF the con-
tinental divide. While Mr. Rogers is
a resident Of Park county his cattle
Craze principally on the ranges along
Currant, Wilson and Cottonwood
creeks. ranging occasionally as far
down az Lower Four Nile.
The cattle business In Fremont
county is growing and there Is. per-
haps, as much stock in the ranges
here as on any similar area in the
state, and the Investment in the bus
iness must be we'll towards a million
dollars. The assessment last year
shows that there were only 1880
head Of cattle in the county, but the
actual number Is. do doubt, far great
er than that Perhaps 10000 would
be nearer the mark.
