WHO FLEES.

HOHENWALD, Tenn, May 3.-As
? result of quarrel between Tom
Cook and Marion Bean, the latter was
fatally stabbed at o'clock this after
noon, six miles out on the Swan

Cured at Joe Turner'S. store, when
the quarrel between the two was be-
gun. Cook is said to have escaped,
and left the place but later in the

who, 1t is alleged, made at attack and
was stabbed over the heart, being
killed instantly. Bean, is said to
have stabbed and killed his brother
last March. Cook comes from a good
family and this was his first trouble.
He disappeared through the woods
and has not since been heard from.

BISHOP ATKINS
FOR PROHIBITION
METHODIST DIVINE SPEAKS TO
LARGE CROWD At MeKEN-
DIRE CHURCH.

NASHVILLE. Tenn, May 4.-Prob
ably no more convincing argument in
favor of statewide prohibition has
ever been made than the sermon OF
Bishop James Atkins Of North Caro-
lima yesterday morning at McKendree
church.
1t is certain that there has never
been heard in Nashville, either from
pulpit or platform, a more profound
and more unanswerable prohibition
argument. His sermon was not long,
but it covered every phase, in a
broad way, of the entire liquor ques-
ton.
His text was taken from the text
in Exodus relating to the goring OK,
and the ancient law there laid down
was made strikingly applicable to
present conditions in Tennessee and
the statewide prohibition question.
On the question of personal liberty,
about which the Model License
League and other saloon advocates
have had so much to say, the bishop |
said that the courts had rendered de-
,isions to the effect that the state had
he right to limit the exercise of per-
'onal liberty, when the liberty goes
30 far as to be injurious to society.
lie then gave an unanswerable argu-
nent to show that this applies to the
rink evil. His conclusion on this
oint was that the state has the right,
s matter of self-defense, to restrict
he freedom of individuals.

in this way: Gov Patterson had be-

SPOKANE, Jan. 1.-Gr0Hers of
live stock in the Spokane country
received between $12, 2,0O0,600 and
$13NOO,O00 for Eneir cattle, sheep,
hogs and norses in 1907, the general
increase being estimated at from 20
to 20 percent over the year before.
The greatest gains were probably
made in Whitman county, where
the ranchers were paid $1,600,000
approximately for cattle and hogs
alone, and of this amount the farm
ers in and near Pullman received
more than $1,000 for stock sent
to abattoirs and packing houses. 1t
may be added that the growers in
the Pullman district received better
prices than those in other parts of
the country, from the fact that they
sent only first class stock to market.
This is illustrated by the prices paid
recently to w. D. Foster for a year
ling and a two-year-old steer, for
which he received 5000, of which
$40 was for the first named animal,
weighing 1,1O0 pounds, while the
steer, weighing 1850 POUNDS
brought $3.50.
OF course, sheep raising is the
chief source of revenue Of the live
stock industry in the Spokane coun-
try at present, several million ami
mails being grazed on the foothills
and on the mountain ranges, but
with the introduction of high grade
cattle, horses and swine, now prac
ticed by stockmen, it is only ques
tion of a short time when the latter
will predominant, thus greatly in
creasing the production and outpu
of the country. Stockmen say witt
confidence that the coming yea
will show far greater returns thar
| in 1907, for the reason they are
paying more attention to breeding
and feeding.
In making up the foregoing fig
ures, which are based upon conserv
ative estimates from the various
stock centers in eastern Washington

States at New Years reception at
the White House. Assisting him in
exchanging the salutations of the

The niceties of diplomatic etiquet

to partake largely of an official
function. - -
The vice president and members

were to be noticed among the mem

northern Idaho, northeastern Ore

been included. This would add
$11, 100000 more, or show total
of $24, 100000, $6,5O0,O0O being
the estimated value of cow products.
In these departments there are also
more than surface indications that
the outputs VIII be- largely I'm
creased this year. Settlers are COM
ing into the district at the rate of
20, 900 year, not including the 49,
900 added yearly to the population
of Spokane.
The various live stock and dairy
mems association and individual
growers are encouraging stock rails
ers to come to the Inland Empire,
where there is need for mitch cows
and beef cattle. Grasses and other
feed for stock can be grown here
cheaper than in any other known
district and the highest cash prices
obtain for the products. One dairy
man, who has given the subject
years of study, declares there is i'm
mediate need for 100000 cows in
the Spokane country alone, as is
evidenced by the fact that several
million dollars is sent to other states
for dairy products.
1t may be noted that the prevail
ing market price for butter and
cream is causing many stockmen tC
change their herds from beef stock
to dairy cattle, but this is not gen
eral for the reason probably that
the average cattleman is averse tc
trading his saddle for a three-legged
milking stool. However, 1t appears
to be the general verdict that with
the settling of the country and the
cutting up of the big farms and
ranches the dairy industry viii
come into its own and the growers
in the Inland Empire will at Least
supply sufficient products to meet
the demands the consumers withir
the boundaries of their country.
