Proclamation of Warning to Owners

According to Dr. Bostrom, the horse
disease is (lying out in places where It
put in an appearance. "This is probs

epidemic has heen the means of send
ing out ft lot of traveling quacks

their animals "nave been filched out of
hundreds more by the fakirs.
The governor of Kansas has issued
ft proclamation ealllnjr the attention of
the farmers to the manner in which
fakirs nre robbing the farmers and in
all probability a like communication
will be Issued by Governor Aldrlch.

"Ulster day" Is the designation
chosen for this remarkable political
sac l ament. According to its ptoniot

Spectacles of another political color
the affair it not to be take n seriously
Home rule in its revived form ol
local self-government instead of com
