The assessors met Tuesday and elected Pat Lacy, chairman and Win.

We are quite sure the assessors did the wise Uiinn and it shows great consider ation for those that were absent for they had full power to make a schedule if they saw fit. The assessors fully comprehend the situation before them, and we feel that they will be deliberate In their actions.

" This looks tike a tough proposi tion for the aveaaee stockgrower to fare, and doubtless is, and although we think they have brought it on them selves through a fight over the runiie we feel sorry for them just tin same nnd i hope that something favorable to them will be done by congress within the next few weeks. The stock industry is, the only one industry that can be fol lowed successfully in this part of Wyo ming. It is also the one industry that has builded up the west, nnd is the only one industry thnt can sustain the north west. , Ti:e stock industry has made nd. vnncement in the past few years ' which, places it on a plane of keeping abreast, with the best and most desireable indus tries of the country. The long horn, Texas and Mexican breed of cattle have, disappeared from the ranges and in their places we find the whiteface, the Polti Angus, tne Durham and other high, grades much superior to what the con-, ditions were when tlie free open range, was in vogue. Then again to make the cattle indnstry profitable it makes the holding of tle. range necessnry, either by ownersiom. lease, or other means, that encb ram-h-. man might have headqunrtors and. be, come rtsident stockmen. The condition of these lands are of such a nature that , herding is impractical. No stock Willi bn profitable on these ramtee wliere they are herded during the day and cnrrnlli4l at niglit. Experience baa taught stock-, men these facts and, it is by experience, and great loss and difficulties that they have succeeded in elevating the business 1 to a paying basis. We are in favor of hnilding up, not tearing down, an Indus-, try that is the life of any community,, therefoae hope congress will take action, soon nnd settle this perplexing ninga, question to the satisfaction of all. 1 audi: turuld. FENCES OR.DER.ED DOWN There is wailing in the camps of the caltlamen just now. During the pust week muny notices have rolled into this section by mini from government land inspectors to those who have govern ment land enclosed with a fence to tear down said fence or Uncle Sam would proceed to prosecute them within 60 davs from recelnt of said notice. This order is a sweeping one and was a great surprise, il catching the big and little slockgrower alike. It not only uliects the cattlemen, but many of the sheep men as well. Nine-tenths of the stock men of this section are wholly unpre pareJ to comply with this order and we greatly fear it will work much hardship to many of them. . The range hog is cursing the little nu-s and saviiur It is all caused by the little fellows hunassiiig the government j with complaints about Bill Jones, John Smith or some one else having govern ment land enclosed with a fence while the small fry answer back to the effect that if the range hog had remained witl 111 descent hounds and not forced them to squeal by crowding them so closely they would have remained mum, Sev- erel months ago this piper told both sides thi8 very thing would happen if they persisted in scrapping umong them selves and the not unexcted bus hap- ieoed. It seems queer that caltlegrow ers can't gel along peaceably -togellier, but persist in hogging each oilier out of the range, Where such conditions exist it always breeds trouble and they have fln. nlliui, llin llu.niw.lvM IA hlamo fi,r 1 - nbtllV i i.u The rrencn gownmeTK ia no awwsm IV nil. lunilieiiu iHTioYTim mi .ui.v , . . ... ..-, i, -t, n . w.i . i ..i. .. i 1..;'.. -.m....,i interested In , the brlquettea of pntro-. copy Ol uie .n,. uian ., . substitute fOf sodon't be surpris.il If you should wake 1 tJjat u miti alt tfet pt. up some morning and (hid one unber )eum UM( for ta( purpOM for your pillow, Here it 1st prtient be admitted trt Of 4J)."
