BIG CATTLE HERDS

end of these feuds of years standing.
The five cattle men were sentenced to
long terms In the penltentiary follow.
ing an exciting trial at the town Of
Basin, and the battles which have put
blemish on the Big Horn country are
regarded as thing of the past.
The trial at Basin also served to
show that the sheep men are not
wholly without blame, and its effect
has been to hasten the day when the
stock raising industry must play a
second part, with its gradual extinc.
ton as a natural sequence.
Mr.. Munck says 1t is the natural
rapid settlement of the country which
Is driving the big stockmen out of
business. Already, he says. the cattle
growers are going by the score, and it
will be but short time until the
sheep raisers will be compelled to fol.
low. The cattle men have been forced
by the onward march of actual set
tiers to give up possession of the fer.
tile valleys. and have only the up.
lands to Craze on. This has compelled
them to buy immense quantities of
hay from the ranchmen at price
they declare to be prohibltive to feed
during the winter months. Many. Mr..
Munck says, complain hey have made
no money ort of t business in the
last half dozen years even In the face
of higher prices for beef.
1T takes three or four years to
grow steer, and When feed Is bought
and shipment to market at high ex-
pense Is made the cost kills the profit

1t is different with sheep. and they
would be profitable for long time on
the range If the raisers were not
forced off by the homesteaders. The
ranchmen were once content to take
up claims in the valleys, but now they
have taken farms on the hills and
high table lands, and even in the
mountains. Sheep men are still max.
ing money, because they have not
been compelled to buy feed for their
herds. A sheep will eat anything that
grows. and will thrive on forage
which would starve a steer"
Mr.. Maunck said that in Wyoming
and Montana, when blizzard struck
the country it Was always possible to
get the stock down to a creek bottom
or sheltered timber land. and as soon
as they were out of the driving wind
they were all right.
There are two sources of revenue
from the sheep" he continued. 1.-The
wool and mutton After they have
been kept two or three years for the
fleece they may be fattened and sent
to market. AT the present time I
have a comparatively small herd,
5000. but have had as many as 49,.
900 grazing"
I'm few years | figure there will
be little open country for sheep in
Montana and South Dakota, and
will go out of the business Many 9TH
ers will follow or precede me. There
have been great opportunities for
young men to make money out on the
sheep and cattle ranges in the past,
but they must move farther west or
south or go out of business. The day
of the cattle baron and his picturesque
cowboys and the flockmaster and his
herders is soon to pass"

Man Who Built TupneI

From the National Magazine
 William c. McAdoo, who will be known to posterity as the builder of the great Hudson river tunnels, was born during the civil war, which left his fathers family stranded at Milledgiville. Ga. and reduced from a state of affluence to one of extreme poverty
 But to this circumstance he attributes much that has brought him success At reception rendered to him by the citizens of New Jersey, after the open- ing of the tunnels. he made the follow ing significant reference to that period:
 T was brought up in Georgia, in the part of General Sherman's famous march to the sea. As Henry Grady once remarked. General Sherman was a bit careless with fire and for this reason, among other things he has never been a popular man in Georgia. For myself. however. I feel that I owe General sherman a debt of gratitude. He pro- duced conditions and an environment which made it necessary 6or the in- dividual to develop every resource and every power with which nature had en- dowed him. in order to exist I believe that character is produced and devel- oped to the highest degree by hardsbips, suffering and poverty I have pevcr doubted that whatever of character [ have developed has been. in a large measure due to the surroundings and conditions which General Sherman forced upon the people of our section durin< that great war"

The negro was being carried to the calaboose, in which MT Tate was aiding the mar shal, and suggesting to the young men to let the negro alone. In some way a pistol was discharged and four shots rang out with the result that MT. Tate ing ceased.
 The deceased was one of the towns foremost citizens; had served as manager of the Vegetable Growers association for several years, and only last spring had conducted a most successful season. He was a school trustee and much inter ested in school work. He left his busi- ness affairs in good shape.
 He leaves a wife and several little girls, who are inconsolable, besides several brothers, sisters and his father Funeral services will be conducted tomorrow at 10 a. m. by the pastor of the Baptist church, of which the deceased had Ions been a prominent and useful member.

DENIES THAT THIRD
 DEGREE WAS GIVEN
Sigsbee Called to Montgomery
 to Testify
CASE OF MORRIS BROWN
Bill Seeking to Increase .GoyernOr's Salary Will Probably Be IntrO- duced-RaiIrOadC Commission
 to Meet Monday

Montgomery, September 3.-(Special.)- w. S. Sigsbee, a special detective of Blr- mingham, was called on this afternoon to deny the administration of the third degree" in Birmingham on Morris Brown negro who is being held here on a charge of .wrecking passenger train No S7 at Falkners Siding, near Montgomery, on the night of July 30. Intimation in the justice of peace court of Judge Mike H. Screws was to the effect that an all legged confession had been extorted from the negro.
 Several weeks ago announcement was made in Birmingham that the negro, while in the Magic City, had confessed
 to the crime, and the trial before Judge Screws today largely pivoted on whether or not harsh treatment had been admin
 stered to make the negro duplicate him. self in the case. It was published in
 Birmingham that the negro had con-
 fessed in the presence of Detective Sies- bee, Frank Cecil and Special Railroad Agent Porter, to the derailment of the engine, which resulted in the death of the engineer and the infiiction of injuries upon other members of the crew Since his incarceration in the Montgomery jail however, he has been reticent save for continued protestations of innocence. Trend of the questioning in the magistrates court was to ascertain whether or not the police officials of the
 Magic City are in the habit of placing prisoners in electric chairs to secure con- fession of guilt, or of making use of such drastic measures. Detective Sigsbee was asked if the police used handcuffs | to which were attached electric wires, and all of the insinuations were denied by the detective and characterized as baseless.
 | At the conclusion of the examination of witness, which occupied most of the early afternoon, the negro was bound | over to the grand jury.
