OUR MOTTO
No Question is ever Settled Until it is
Settled Bight
In his Naper News last week Bro
Church says of ye scribe
Recently Bob has also adopted
sible
ortnograplry m his paper ie
Longpine instead of Long Pine
This is Bro Bates sore spot and he re
taliates hy announcing that Editor
Bbbgood of the Valentine ISewsdemo
crat etc
Recently that corks us Here
we have been for four years and a half
priding ourself on our correct method
of spelling Longpine and now Maur
ice Church he of the peaked face and
shambling gait he whom we have
loved us a brother he who has been
our example for emulation during the
last two years tries to rob us of our
glory Go to Avaunt Get out Scat
Bro Church has done no more to popu
larize Longpine than he did to kill
the Big Ditch and according to Pro
Irrigation that was mighty little Uncle
Sam and us are the only ones respon
sible for Longpine and the rest of
you are but children attending our
school
Below wo trive two letters received
this week from subscribers to this pa
per and citizens of the county We do
not fully agree with these writers on all
the points they bring out but knowing
that they are honest opinions we pub
lish them Remember we are always
ready to print any articles of a public
nature proyided the true name of the
writer is given to us
After reading the account in the
News Democrat of the arrest ot the
cattle thief at Cody last week by our
sheriff the after thought came Why
wonder at lynch law
Here is a man brought before the
the court for cattle stealing found guil
ty by twelve competent men the judge
sentenced him for a number of years
By some trumped tip scheme he was
brought back for a new trial and while
out under bonds he was caught red
handed in stealing 25 head more cattle
then put in jail again This time with
help of course he escaped We sur
mise he again returned to his old trade
of cattle rustling turning up at Cody
with 1500 in gold on his person
How did he make this small fortune
Ask any honest hard working man if
he has cleared 1500 in one year with
out the foundation of one cent to com
mence on and he will say No sir
very decidedly If this man should be
lynched who should be blamed Those
hard working men who tried the law
and found it inefficient or justice who
fooled with this thief and let him es
cape
I believe it safe to say there have
been 800 cattle stolen in this county the
past year There is hardly a ranch
man you can meet who has not lost
from one to twenty five head of cattle
anyway the count is that mush short
and more will be missing in the spring
roundup not saying anything of horses
that cant be found
The ranchmen in the west part of
Cherry countv are of one mind concern
ing cattle stealing IT MUST STOP
And any case that turns up will be
prosecuted to a finish not by one man
in particular but by -everyone avIio is
interested in cattle raising
With an apology for so much space I
will close G O Fairhead
Editor News Democrat Should the
Valentine Ladies2 Band play for thea
ters Emphatically No
It is composed of Christian young a
dies and the theater with some excep
tionsdoes not tend to the advancement
of morals but rather the reverse It is
deplorable that the tastes of the people
are such that to succeed the play must
cater to the baser impulses of its pat
rons but such is the case and for this
bright Christian band to lend its draw
ing power to such an institution would
work great injuiy to themselves to the
church to society in fact turn a bles
sing into a blight The unparalleled
development of this band denotes su
perior ability in teacher and pupil and
it can choose its own course to fame
and succeed We give all honor to the
management of this much needed en
terprise but the people should not -forget
that they are first a band of Chris
tians and second a brass band compe
tent to dictate their own course and
make the world brighter and happier
It is not so much what the newspapers-
say as what neighbor says to
neighbor or friend to friend that has
brought Chamberlains Colic Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy into such gen

express their gratitude after using this
remedy as it is for water to flow down
hill It is the one remedy that can al

It is the man who raises the cattle
who makes the money in thelongrun
said Ben F Darlington one of the best
known and most successful stockmen
in this section to a representative of the
Texas Stock and Farm Journal this
week He illustrated his assertion as
follows The men in the cattle busi
ness who have money and arc making
it are not the men who go on the mar
ket and buy a few steers occasionally
or frequently as they feel inclined to
buy The men who speculate in cattle
are often either fiat broke or in debt
and look to a lucky speculation to pull
them out while the men who own the
ranches breed and raise the cattle are
the men who have big rolls of the long
green It is true that a dry year comes
along frequently and lots of their cattle
die dn their hands but in the long run
they pull through all right and have
money to spend when the speculator
has none

mer s company is stronger than ever
thisseason and deserves all the pat
ronage it receives
At the recent congressional hearing
in Washington upon woman suffrage
Mrs Emily P Bissell read a paper in
opposition in which the following argu
ment was r ado
The suffrage movement must be
against the opinions of most of our sex
since it has been pushed for fifty years
and still remains a minority movement
In these fifty years every other wom
ans movement really desired by wom
en has succeeded The educational
movement is a magnificent success
The movement for property lights is
so successful that even married women
now have more rights than married
men The entrance of women into all
occupations and professions has been
so great that now out of a possible LGO
occupations over 360 have been con
quered for our sex
I wonder if the antis ever stop to
think that they have fought against
every one of these steps in the progress
of women from learning to read and
write to casting a ballot The many
privileges and equitable laws which
Mrs Bissell glories in calling attention
to have without exception been
brought about by the persistent efforts
of the woman suffragists It is a mat
ter of history with what ridicule Mary
Lyons first attempts to secure the edu
cation of women were received not
only by the mass of men but by the
mass of women as well
When Vassal College was founded
Mrs Lucinda II Srone of Kalamazoo
