Cattle GOING

Conditions Are Somewhat
Changed From Early Days
Of Stock Raising

Miles City, Mont, July 1T was
only Il few years ago that great herds
OF horses and cattle roamcd over the
vast stretches Of unfcnced Montana
ranges, and horses and cattle buyers
frcm all sections OF the globe flock
ed to the state to purchase stock, but
IL the last decade d. great transfor-
nation has taken place and l.vesock
is now being brought into the state
instead of being shipped away.
The cayuse grade of horses, and
the inferior grades of cattle have
Ecen eliminated from the state, and
better breeds have taken their place.
The hundreds of settlers who have
come here during the last few years
have in many instances brought high
class stock with them. The old
residents have REALIZED the necessity
OF raising better stock, and to- that
end they have gone far and wide to
secure several head OF the best blood
cd stock to be had, as a nucleus for
future herds. @.
The report of Dr., W. J. Butler. the
state veterinarian, for the month OF
juno, shows that during the last sew.
en- months the stock shipped into
Montana sets new record.
Between December lard the last
day OF June 2,069 importations enter.
ed Montana from all points of the
globe, and those included 11,O64 head
of horses, 5,l4l head of cattle and
5zSf hogs. During the month OF June

of pardens is being urged to grant Knapp a
pardon.
If Knapp were to be pardoned, such action
would be standing invitation to all murderously
inclined citizens to vent their anger vengeance
against fellow beings practically with mpunty.
They can kill, serve few years of life sentence
and then return to their community freed by a
pardon.
AS well let Seth Lucas remain few years at
the insane colony in the penitentiary, bring him
back when he shows signs of sanity and try him
under the charge of manslaughter for burning
his wife to death. Or even try him under first
degree charge, sentence him for life and then
pardon him.
1t is not the action of the state in combining
a man for life that constitutes the hardship on
murderer's family. That is simply the conse-
quence of his act that first placed him behind
the bars. The act of murder itself is what brings
about the hardship.
While we should all feel the deepest sympa-
thy for a murderer's family, nevertheless, we
can not allow that to influence us in countenanc-
ing such free use of the pardoning power. That
encourages lawlessness.

Abusing the Pardon System

1t is standing saying that Wayne county
jury will not convict a murderer death SEN
tence charge. 1t will find guilty under life i'm
prisonment sentence, but no more.
That means, of course, the sentiment of
Wayne county people is against the death penal
ty, but not against proper punishment for muir
derers, as an example for others, murderousy
inclined, not to take life.
Life Imprisonment, however, as a sentence
is fast becoming joke in Indiana The latest
manifestation of this facetious disregard of the
good of the community, is the attempt to obtain
pardon for John Knapp sentenced for life for
the atrocious murder of Len. Geisler at the time
of his death marshal of Hagerstown.
Knapp struck Geiser over the head with
heavy iron bar, killing him. He was sentenced
in 1905 to life Imprisonment. He has served
about seven years of his sentence so far. Now

Speaker Clark's Warning

A timely warning has been sounded by
Speaker Champ Clark.
'It is high time says Mr.. Clark, that more
attention be paid to the influence of emigration
upon our future These Americans who are leav-
ing us understand institutions, our ways and
aspirations, while most of the immigrants
into this country have to be taught these things.
''In one week, not long SINCE 1,845 American
farmers with $388,500 in cash and $145OOO in
personal property, crossed into Western Canada
to settle permanently in British North America.
That's average of $288 per capita and that
week was below the weekly average into that re-
gion alone. How many go to other countries
do not know.
"These emigrants among our best cltl-
zens. | am personally acquainted with two or
three hundred of them. There is not bad or
shiftless man in the lot They are seeking to bet
ter their condition. They almost invariably take
their families with them. The principal reason
they expatriate themselves is the lure of cheaper
lands and less stringent land laws as to home
stealing"
Speaker Clark puts his finger on a national
weakness. For years the bars have been practi
cally down to all classes of immigrants Except
the Chinese) many of whom are undesirable as
American citizens. While this invasion has been
encouraged with little regulation, not one thing
has been done by the national government to
check the emigration of native-born Americans
or the best classes of our foreign-born citizens.
AS Speaker Clark has pointed out, this policy
is costing the United States millions of dollars
annually, and it is pleasing to note he is prepared
to use his great influence to bring about reforms.
The wholesale loss of good citizens of English,
Irish, German and Scandinavian descent, races
the republic has been built upon, could be
checked to material degree by congress. Realiz,-
ing this, the speaker is squirting congress to
action.
Better homestead laws and judicious encour
agement to increasing the area of home building
through better irrigation and drainage laws,
effective remedies.

PITY the Poor Horse

The lot of the horse is harder these days than
it was ten years ago. To a great extent he is
compelled to do heavy work. The automobile has
usurped the place of the old and highly respected
family horse, the pet of the household, and he
has been driven forth to desperate toll.
Horses are very susceptible to hot weather
and during the summer months these faithful
and most useful of animals should receive the
utmost consideration and care, but, unfortunate
ly, there are too many of them who receive bru-
tai treatment instead.
Business men who employ truckmen and de-
liVerymen, to state the case from a business
standpoint, practice poor economy If they per-
NIT their drivers to mistreat their horses. The
ordinary business man would treat an employee
in summary manner if he him I'M ure some
article of stock by deliberate carelessness. On
the other hand, how often is it the case that an
employer will absolutely ignore the mistreatment
of valuable asset to his business-a good dray
horse or delivery wagon horse.
A year or so ago the local Humane Society
was rejuvenated for the purpose of compelling
humane treatment of dogs. If that organization
is still in existence, it find plenty of work in
befriending the horses of this city.
The arrest and conviction of two or three
brutal drivers who take fiendsh delight in abus-
ing their animals when the unfortunate beasts
are doing their best to perform their work, might
have wholesome effect.
If the society is again in a comatose condition
the citizens should make it their duty to befriend
mistreated horses by promptly filing charges of
cruelty to animals against offending drivers.

HER OPINION OF HIM

Her husband wins her highest praise
When he is not where he may hear;
She speaks about his manly ways,
His splendid traits, his lack of fear;
She proudly magnifies his worth
And speaks as if he were a saint,
Referring to his noble birth
And lack of any yellow faint.
When she's at home and he is there
And no one else may overhear
She scolds him for his lack of care,
He ceases to be great and dear;
She speaks about his 1owly birth,
Nor ever shows the least restraint:
He ceases to have any worth
And she forgets that he's saint.
