We wish to call the attention
this week of all of the members of
the Saratoga Valley Stock Grow
ers Association to the fact that we
are this week printing for the
first time the complete list OF
brands as turned over to us by
the association.
We want each and every man
having a brand appearing therein
to LET US N at once if
there is any error in his or their
brands so that correction may be
made before this matter goes to
print in book form. If an error
is not noted to us within a limit
ed time we will take our construc-
ton as correct and proceed to
print.
Those not in the association
have an opportunity to still get in
as we'll as have their brand put in
the ads and in the book, but this
MUST necessarily be done within
ten days to two weeks by sending
Secretary Tilton ST. This admits
you to membership and pays the
So assessment for the publication
of the brands, book and your sub

welcomed a prisoner in the west.
The crowd was jammed from the

with a smile.

not hard, as he committed no dep.

Friday evening by a lone bandit,

said train guard consented to do

they encountered the conductor.

point of view as the train guard
had previously came to, when the
bandit ''busted a cap" over his
head.
After getting a donation from
each man in the two cars Mr.
Bandit asked the conductor to
slow down that he might get off,
which he did and the bandit left
the train just east of Walcott,
near the Edison tunnel.
The amount collected was in
the neighborhood of $1,000, AID

the train guard the promised
watch that he said he would give

A posse was organized Friday

guard and one of his own, and a
purse. He fell striking his face,
cutting him up pretty badly, as
was afterwards discovered. He
then took off north of the track to
get on a rocky ridge so as to leave
no tracks. His intention was to
go to Casper, and being an excep.

reach Casper in 20 hours.

took a chance shot and spurred
his horse, yelling for help. A
man by the name of Harnden,
coming up, pulled his gun off in
