Word came 10 Gunnison on Tues
day that cattle prices had dropped
fifteen TO twenty cents and that the
existing range Of prices would likely
continue until after Thanksgiving.
Explanation was made that there
was no reason for the falling off ex-
cept lack of demand for feeders.
This lessening Of the demand, it
was said, was due to the fact that
buyers in the Denver market had re-
turned 10 their homes in Kansas and
Nebraska to spend Thanksgiving
and that doubtless the market there
would be dull until the fret part of
December.
The Anderson Brothers, Billy
Anderson, Ralph Allen and the
Pressler boys we're on their way into
town with between two and three
hundred head when they heard of
the condition Of the Denver market.
They Immediately corralled their
cattle until they could come to town
and verify the reports They found
them TO be true and returned 10 their
homes with the cattle and will not
attempt further to ship until better
news comes from the Denver market.
Over 5000 head Of cattle we're in
the pens in Denver Monday, and
only few feeders bidding for th>m.

GOSSIP OF THE PRESS.

The Duluth Herald believes that
there should be an extra session of
the legislature next winter to in
crease the railroad gross earning
tax and to enact such other impor-
tant legislation as can be handled in
a session Of reasonable length. In
view of the fact that next years
state tax will be the highest in al
most forty years, while the railroad
tax remains unchanged, the rail-
roads should be made to pay jast
share Of the taxation. If an extra
session Of the legislature is necessary
to bring this about then let's have
the extra session. lie Sueur .Senti-
mel.
The trust-owned papers of the
Twin Cities are raising the strongest
objections they can to the calling to-
gether of the Minnesota legislature
in extra session and a very few Of
their weaksminded country brethren
are following their lead. The peo-5
pie of Minnesota want an extra ses-i
sion and want it badly and indica-
tons are that the legislators want
t. be called together again iii order
that they have another chance to
right the rank injustice being done
the people. They failed miserably
in their last attempt and have nov
had time to think over their short
comings and no doubt they will ac-
complish something of a real benefit
at an extra session. Motley Mer-

all know, it didsnot pass, and the
governor is now apparently waiting
to see if the delegates attending the

governors reminds US of the story

The passenger agents at their Chi

duced rates. Why? He who can
answer that question will lay bare
an ancient Minnesota scandal.
So far as we are aware New York,
Pennsylvania and Minnesota stand
alone in the depth Of their railroad
perfdy. In Minnesota that condi-
ton is as old as the state itself and
there is at present no light in the
d ,rkness.
There were never statistics pro-
duced to prove that the passenger
traffic was losing money during the
enforcement of the two cent rate.
Yet the roads fought the case to the
Circuit court and won. They are
now to fight it before the United
States Supreme court. The conf
dence of their actions justifies the

belief that they are not afraid of
the decision of the highest court in
the land.
Everyone remembers the attitude
of the roads about six years ago.
Drastic railroad legislation was then
in its infancy in this state. Before
that they had gone serenely forward
calmly Indifferent to the wishes of
the people. When they discovered
that public sentiment was setting
the legislature against them they
began to whine of the injustice of
public servants and cruelty Of pub
lie sentiment.
They fought the gross earnings
tax and were defeated. They
fought the 2 cent rate and were de-
feated in the lower courts. They
have fought every measure for the
relief Of the public that the legisla-
ture or congress has enacted.
They have called public sentiment
heartless but they have been the
Iersonfcation of Indifference and
q. Tie embodiment Of aggrandizing
selfishness.
Now they are retaliating for the
years Of struggle. They know that
it is not question of finance but Of
revenge that keeps them fro m
granting to the state reduced rates
! at Christmas.
In contest with the people that
corporation is short sighted that
seeks revenge.
Animosity is again in the air. 1t
cannot be side-tracked, it cannot be
crushed. In the next campaign,
now almost upon us, Railroads will
loom large and it is doubtful if any
man can be elected to the legisla-
ture who fails to put himself on re-
cord on this important question.
There will be railroad legislation
and plenty of it regardless Of the
action of the United States supreme
court with reference to the Sanborn
decision. This will be the fruit OF
the seed the railroads have sown.
