eminent is trying in one way or an
other to solve on the ranges of the
national forests. Predatory animals,
such as wolves, coyotes, mountain
lions and wild cats, do thousands
of dollars worth of damage to stock
each year in all parts of the country.
On some ranges forest officers have
to contend with rustlers, who some
times succeed in stealing the great
part of the stock which the predatory
animals do not kill. Poisonous plants
are another nuisance which give the
stockmen considerable trouble in
many parts of the country.
Uncle Sam has always shown a
disposition to cooperate with the
stockmen in combating these nuis-
ances; in fact. he is doing better
than merely meeting the stockmen
half way in the work. On many of
the national forest ranges for the
last year rangers and guards have
been assigned to the work of hunt
ing and trapping, with the sole aim
of killing off the animals that prey
upon the stock. The work has met
with marked success, and hundred
of wolves and coyotes have succumb-
hunters. Each animal killed means
a decided saving to the sheep indus
try, for it is estimated that one wolf
averages about 81 600 damages each
year.
Forest officers are cooperating
with the stock associations to stop
the stealing of livestock and run the
rustlers out of the country. The war
on poisonous plants has been carried
on for more than year by the forest
service, in cooperation with the
bureau of plant industry, and, while
the Investigations have just been be-
gun, it is already seen that their
growth can be checked in many
states.
If it is possible to check the wild
horse nuisance as easily as the other
troubles which have bothered the
stock interests, both the stockmen
and the forest officers will find the
Western ranges rid Of another ser
ious drawback which helps to re-
tard progress in the business.

WANTED
Every Person in Waxahachie to
Know What Vinol Is and How
1t Is Made

For sometime We have recon-
mended Vinol to the people of Wax
ahachie as the best cod liver prepar-
alton and tonic reconstructor we
have ever sold.
To prove the reliability and gem
uineness of this successful remedy
and that it is in no sense a patent
medicine, the people of Waxahachie,
Texas will find on every package of
Vinol not only a statement of the
ingredients Vinol contains, but an
illustration in colors showing just
how Vinol is made from fresh Gods
livers and peptonate of iron, which
is a needful constituent for the
blood
This proves in very convicing
manner to the people of Waxahachie
the origin from which Vinol derives
its wonderful curative power, and
that it is real cod liver preparation
made by scientific process which
eliminates the useless oil and retains
all the active medicinal principles.

creator for old people, delicate chill

COL. r. +. SPALDING.
Worthy Tribute to One OF the City's
Pioneer Settlers.


We have been called upon to lay
away the body of another of our old,
well known and highly esteemed cit
liens in its final resting place.
Benjamin f. Spalding was born in
Rails county, Mo, in 1899, came to
Texas in 1859. and to WaXahachie a
year later, permanently locating
here when Waxahachie was a ten
year old town and being away from
water and railroad communication
OF course, was mere village.
The war clouds shortly began to
loom up over our peaceful horizon
and speedily thereafter the tocsin of
war resounded throughout the land.
b. F. Spalding and his brother
John responded to the call and help
ed to form company which in the
organization of the 18th Texas Cav
airy Parsons regiment) became
Company H. The members of this
company We're nearly all unmarried
as well as those of most of the com
panies of the regiment.
The 18th Texas Cavalry made dur
ing the war record of efficiency, of
brave and faithful service and gal
liant conduct rarely equalled
| am proud to say Ellis county had
three of the companies of this regi-
ment to her credit The faithful SER
vice rendered by B. F. Spalding
ranks high among that of the many
gallant and noble sons of that regi-
ment. The war over he resumed his
place in the citizenship of Waxaha-
chic and went to work to build I'D
the waste places and promote the in
terests of the town.
On January 25, 1882, he married
Miss Mittie Parks, daughter of Capt.
w. W. Parks, who had given his life
to the Confederate cause and who
prior to that was our esteemed clerk
OF the district court for Ellis county.
Shortly after the war, he, in connec-
ton with his brother John, estab-
lished furniture business in which
he continued until 1891, when he re-
tired. By his industry and good
management he accumulated a nice
property and associated with others
in the ablishment of the Waxaha-
chic National Bank, of which he was
for many years and until his death
one of the directors. AS a citizen he
was quiet and unassuming but had
firm convictions and in his conduct
did not hesitate to assert them. His
honesty and integrity were beyond
question. AS husband and father he
was faithful to every duty. He is sur
vived by his wife, one son, John and
an adopted daughter He was buried
by members of the local camp of U.

REPUBLICANS IN BOSTON.
State Convention Called to Order
Friday Morning.

Boston. April 10.-With Post
master General George Won l.. Meyer
presiding as chairman, the Massa-
chusetts republican state convention
was called to order in fremont
Temple at 1890 O'Clock this morn
ing. After the transaction of prelim-
mary business, the convention ad-
journed until this afternoon. when
four delegates at large to the nation
al convention will be elected. Lodge,
Crane, and Bates are almost sure of
places among the big four" but a
lively fight is expected in the selec-
ton of the fourth delegate. The
choice for the latter lies between for
mer secretary of the navy, John d.
Long, and Colonel Sydney o. Beg
ney, the Taft candidate.
Congressional district conventions
will be held next week in many
Massachusetts districts. In nearly all
districts the principal issue between
the candidates for delegates is the
support of Taft. Adherents of the
war secretary declare that they will
secure at least IS of the thirty-two
delegates from this state. This is
denied by the antiTaft men, who
say that not more than nine or ten
delegates from this state will vote
for Taft
