Just So Long Only.

The big packers are not paying present high prices for fat cattle just because they want to or because of a desire to befriend the grower. There must be a reason for present prices and one which the packers can not circumvent. The fact is that there is shortage of cattle suitable for slaughtering purposes and this, and this alone, is responsible for present values. Prices will keep up just as long as supply is short of demand San Antonio Stockman-Farme1.

FIRE SATURDAY NIGHT.
Ono Of the Oldest Buildings In Town, an
Early Day Relic Burned.

The old one story frame house on the
Smith corner on Railroad avenue across
the street east from the McCarty hospital
was burned down Saturday night between
s ard 0 o'clock. The house was occupied
by the Feltner and Myers families and
only boy about twelve years Of age was
there when the fire started. The boy
says he does not know how it started, but
it Is probable that it started from lamp.
1t ia understood that there was no in
sursnce carried on the building.
The house was one of the relics of
early days in Dodge City. A part of
1t was owned at one time by Morris
Collar and stood on the corner of Chest
nut and First avenue where DR., Milton's
brick block now stands.
The FIRE had a good start before the
alarm was given and 1t was abou. fi1sh-
ed before the fire company could get
there.

Dodge City broke into the series o
stories now running about the notoriou
Bender family last week. Some fellow
who signed his name as a "Bendei

Monday to Frank Troup, Of Independence
telling him that he must die, and that
the writer would see that he did 80 and
sooh. There Is no doubt that the lettel
was written in Dodge City and In the
opinion Of the Globe Republican, there
Is not much doubt as to the identity OF
the writer. The letter was published
a few days ago In the Evening Star, q
daily paper Of Independence. Here Il
the letter as given BY the Star:

The Death
PENALTY IN FRANCE

IT has been the practice for some
time in France to commute the deatn
penalty by the exercise in all IN
stances of the prerogative OF pardon
by the president of the republic, Co
incidentally with the period during
which executive clemency has been
applied invariably there has been an
alarming increase of crimes against
xhe person. For example, the charges
for murder have risen from l63 IN
1901 to 274 in 1905, and the increase
was especially marked in the last two
years of the five named. CAGES OF
manslaughter also had become more
numerous by about 70 per cent be-
tween 1904 and 1905 So far as can
be Judged in the absence OF officiai
statistics there has been no falling
off in the number of murders and
murderous assaults since 1905. I'm
der the circumstances it is difficult
for French citizens not to connect
in the relation of cause and erect the
cessation of executions for murder
and the multiplication of aggravated
murders. Juries have repeatedly re-
corded their conviction that the
death penalty ought to be enforced
and many councils-general and ar
rondissement councils have also de-
clared that decisions in capital cases
ought not to be overridden by the
persistent use of the prerogative OF
mercy
There seems to be no doubt. how
ever, that SO long as M. Fallieres re-
mains president of the French re-
public he will continue to pardon
every person sentenced to capital
punishment. What, then, is to DC
done? To deprive the chief magis.
trate Of that prerogative would re-
ouire an amendment of the consti
tuition of 1875, and for that purpose
the two chambers would have to o.
called together in join session a
Versailles. It would be possible
however, by a mere ordinary law U
modify what seems to be the dan
gerous result of the systematic exer
else of clemency. The chamDe
might pass law providing that !
every case where death sentenc
should be committed the convle
should be condemned for life to 50
itary confinement. Experience ma
shown that, considered as detel
rent. the dread of such a punishmer
is scarcely less effective than is Tn
fear Of death AS for the oplecto
