The DENVER MARKETS

Denver Union Stock Yards, May
22-Receipts of cattle last week
were fair and there was good
strong demand from day to day.
Prices were l0c to 15c higher at the
close of the week on good fat cattle
and the market was active with
everything offered disposed of read
lily from day to day. Today, with
1000 head on sale prices were steady
to strong and the market in good
shape. Good fat steers are selling
to packers from IS to SO, good cows
from 1925 to s7.85 and extra choice
cows sold this morning at $S, the
highest price ever paid on the Den
yer market. Fair cows are selling
ing readily at 1925 to 81, and veal
calves largely from $11 to s11.75,
with extra choice veals up to $3.50,
the latter being the highest price
ever paid on this market Feeded
and stocker demand was better the
past week than for some time and
prices just about the same. The
supply was quite liberal and there
was a good active trade from day to
day, more business being done on the
Denver market this year than ever
before in the history of the trade
Yearling steers are selling from $34
to $37 per head, twos from SAC to
$50. and threes from $56 to $50.
Yearling heifers are bringing $35 to
$3s. and two-year-old heifers SAT to
s53 per head.
Hog demand was good from day
to day and the market in excellent
condition. Good hogs are now sell
ing from $3.50 to $3.50, and more
could be used Tho supply today
was quite liberal
Sheep demand iS good, and there
is good active mark 1T, but supply
is very limited. Good fat wooled
ewes are selling from $3.50 to 1915,
and clipped ewes from $725 to $3.50
Fat lambs are bringing $11 to $11.5O
The demand here is better than sup
ply and more of all classes of fat
sheep and lambs could be used to ad-
vantage. w. N. FULTON.

HOW IT Will WORK

II liz reported that the petitions to
initiate n herd law I'm Colorado are
now being circulated. II farmers
Will stop to think how this law VIII
affect their own operations. many
VIII hesitate before signing such pc
titions. In the first place. such a
law will upset all OF the established
customs In handling live stock and
Will result in very much confusion.
One effect will be to release the rail
roads from the necessity OF fencing
their right-of-way and should any
mans live stock stray upon the rail-
road. whether fenced or not. the
owner OF the stock Will be liable for
any damages done to the railroads.
This law will absolutely relieve the
railroads from all responsibility in
the matter OF killing stock.
Another effect will be to make It
necessary to herd cattle upon forest
reserves. either by patroling the
boundaries of the reserves or by
keeping n constant watch upon the
cattle that they do not go upon any
ranches within the reserves or
around the boundaries. Just how
this can be handled is not apparent.
but II is certain to cause large
amount OF confusion in regard to for
est reserve grazing, especially as the
courts have held that the government
is not compelled to fence the re-
serves.
One sure result rs that every one
will be compelled to handle their
cattle within fenced pastures and
the fences will necessarily have to be
strong enough to restrain the cattle
from getting out, and should any
animal find its way through a fence,
II will be constant source OF danger
and cost to the owner. Some farm
ers think they have trouble now
keeping other peoples cattle out,
but this will be nothing compared to
the trouble they will meet under a
herd law keeping their own live
stock out of danger.

There are two fears that need
never enter the mind OF an Amer
lean citizen as long as Woodrow Will
son is president. One is that the
federal government will go of half
cooked; and the other is that the
national administration is being CON
trolled by coterie OF nice gentle
men with exact ideas as to what is
best for them. Those fears beset
many OF us under the administra-
tions OF Wilson's two predecessors
The Monte Vista journal., 1916-05-27

The superiority of democratic con
troll in the national government has
been demonstrated in score of af-
firmative measures since Wilson was
inaugurated; but perhaps the best
proof of all is negative. The Roose-
welt panic OF 1907 was result of
bad republican party government in
times of peace and plenty. The pros
perity OF 1916 is a result of good
democratic party government in
times of stress and storm never be
fore dreamed of among men.

G. M. Thomas, a prominent citizen
Of Jackson county, was found guilty

he transported Miss Pauline Steward,
eighteen years of age, from Jackson

important witnesses, and In addition
there were about fifteen others to
testify for the government and de-

Thomas was represented by Rivers

Lansing has stated that ever since
the present difficulty arose the de-
