Kansas City Stock Yards, Sept o.
Cattle receipts here last week amount
ed to $1,000 head, including 1000
calves, which was the heaviest week
this season. In spite of the larger sup
ply and the very warm weather that
prevailed, beef trade improved during
the week, and killers bought cattle
willingly at close to steady prices.
Stock cattle declined % cents, getting
down in line with feeders, which suf-
fered loss of 25 to so cents the prev

Moose in Canada.

Edmonton, Alta, Sept. 10,-John Eg-
gers, a trapper an dhomesteader in the
Fraser river valley, who is in Edmon-
ton for his winter supplies, reports
there are 25 moose to the square mile
in the district, also that deer are num-
erous. He made a large fur-catch last
season. disposing of the pelts in this
city at good prices. Eggers padded
a dugout canoe from Fort George to
Tete Juan Cache, 800 miles without
mishap. There are many rapids in the
Fraser river, making the journey more
or less hazardous, but many settlers,
he says, are going down the swift
stream in small boats and scows, TAX
ing household goods and farm imple-
ments Six hundred men and women
have gone into the district in the last
80 days. The overland road from the
Peace river country to Fort George is
a long and difficult one. 1t is used
chiefly by trappers, tourists and pros.
pectors in search of big game, scenery
and minerals.

New York, Sett. 10.-The Providence

CAS- an Independent newspaper,
bound to no party and desirous only
of serving the public good, the Journal
believes that the election of Woodrow
Wilson as president of the United
States is demanded by every consider
alton of the national welfare.
ITO whom then, at such a juncture
can intelligent and patriotic men turn
if not to Governor Wilson? Now, as
the Journal asked on the occasion of
his speech of acceptance, can such
mean fail to respond to so inspiring a
call? The question is no longer one
of mere partisanship. 1t is at bottom
a question of morals. Governor Will
son does not indulge in the cant of
affecting to be greater than his party;
but he does appeal to men outside of
the party to join with him in discov-

not believe like Mr.. Taft, that tariff

A LONG WAIT
FOR LAND TITLE

Spokane, Wash Sept l0.-After
living on land in the forest reserves of
northern Idaho TO rten years, unable
to get title, 500 settlers are to be given
opportunity to own their lands, which
comprise $4,000 acres.
During the decade the settlers. by
reason of their not holding title, have
been unable to raise taxes for any
purpose, and schools have been out
of the question.
The situation has just cleared, how
ever, on the receipt of information
from Washington, D. c., to the effect
that Darwin A Utter, surveyor general
has been given instructions to survey
the land. Two survey parties are now
in the field engaged in the work that
will eliminate in the settlers getting
clear title.
The situation is one that has de-
veloped many unusual features. Prin.
cipal among these is the spirit in
which the small army of home-makers
bent to a task in which they had no
assurance that their labors would en-
rich themselves.
Settling on government land, they
built their homes and raised their
crops. In nearly every instance the
tilling of the soil had to be preceded by
the no mean task of clearing the land
of the giant trees. They made both
ends meet, first by the sale of the tim
Der; later by planting crops between
the stumps, Some have cleared the
stumps, and when the survey is com
pleted and title given, their ten years
of labor and uncertainty will be amply
rewarded.
Townships Al, AZ, 43 and A consti
tute the first piece of land to be sur
veyed. The land lies near the head
waters fthe st. Joe and Clearwater
rivers, in the Coeur d'Alene and Clear
water forest reserves.

WOULD CHANGE
ELECTION LAWS
Would Require Majority Vote to
Nominate in Primary.

Oklahoma City, Sept. 9.--Crooked
dealings in an election will call for
term in the penitentiary and nothing
else, If a recommendation which Gov
ernor Cruce has in mind is accepted
by the legislature next winter. Under
the present law, the heaviest penalty
is $25 fine. This is all that is provid-
ed for the offenses of padding the reg.
istration list or stuffing ballot box.
Another recommendation the COVER
nor thinks of making is to require that
in a primary election the successful
candidate shall receive a majority OF
the votes cast for the Office, in place
of a plurality. This may be accom-
plished either by holding a second elcc-
tom or requiring the voter to express
himself for first, second or third
choice. With a large number of can
didates in a race, the expressions
could be so distributed as to prevent
any candidate from getting major
| ity of the votes cast, but such occa-
sions would be rare. In the recent
race for congressman-at-large, on the
democratic ticket the three combina-
tions were made upon %, 26 and 81
per cent of the total vote cast for that
office.
