I Yesterday morning between the hours of 10 and 11 o'clock , Go. . . . Mickey accepted the written resignation of Judge Homer M. S111ivan and issued a commission to Charles L. Gutterson appointing - ing him Judge of the twelveth . Judicial District to fill the un- expired term. For some time Ju ge Sullivau has been threat- ning to resign in order that he might again engage in' the practice - tice of law , as he thinks he can , malte more money practicing ane ! will have more freedom to lool ! after his ranch bu'siness than he would had he remained on the bench. The appointment of his successor - cessor , could not have been more thl ) ' bestowed. Mr. GutterS - --S n is a man ri pe in exp rience , having practiced both in CaH- fornia and Arizona before locat- lIlg in this cit ) ' fifteen ) 'ears ago , From IS88 until February 1897 when Judge Sullivan was appointed - pointed successor to Judge Green Mr. Gutterson was in partnership with Mr. Sullivan in the praclice of law under the firm name 01 Sullivan & Gutteron. : Since . th t date he has been in the business alone and has enjoyed a lucrative practice. He is one of the leading m mbers of the Cu-ter Coun ty Bar and enjoys the . 11 ig-h esteem of those who Imow him for legal ability and honesty. For strict in lergri ty he has no superiors in the dhtrict or state. The unexpired term of Judge Sulli van ends January I , 1904. Mr. Gutterson has been a life long republican but in no sen e a politician. He has frequently beCll urged by his friends to accept - cept nominations in his party for various offices since he has been a resident of . the county but he invariable declined. For nine years the district lias had a populist - ulist judge. Judge Gutterson is the first republican to occupy the bench since Judge Hamer of Kearney was defeated in 1883. OUI'lhwf'SIIJll'Y. ' It is very plainly seen by me that there is a rapid decrease in 'the west especially in the great Star state where ranches are being - ing given up to home seekers , also in the Oklahoma district to wheat raising.

P.A , . . . .Un w. . . : no breed cuts a larger per cent of high priced porter house stalw amI are always in prime condition with a reasonable amount of feed. As for certain individuals I found no other breed has outweighed - weighed them. Herford cows have made and t sted 17 pounds of butter per we 'K. What better do you want for a beef breed ? As for hornless we have them in a seperate Association. The point I wish to emphasise is we must increase our Leef supply , not by numbers but by pure breed cattle. The country will come' to this as it did , 'm pure bred swin ( ' , which is the rule. The stock raiser who does not adhere to these principles will be found wanting in that which goes to malte up his purse , and that wise saying will apply to his purse : "Who steals my purse , steals strash. " Pure blood will increase - crease the beef supply by making 1,500 to 1.800 pound cattle in twenty-four mon1hs , whereas common beef requires as a rule Lhirty six months. Pure breed will require less acres of feed , and the next item to be consider. ed is a balanced ration which has been thoroughly proven and tested - ed at our experim' station and we must move in that direction with has.te. The meat of a quickly maturing animal is more jucy and tender than a long ma' turing one. Years ago it was the plan to mature the animal then fatten it. 'We must progress , with the times. Chicago has prime meat marltets where only the choicests cuts are bouglJt. None but prime beef is found. No common article is allowed in the shop. Ther is a decided diffcrence in prime o\'er our pOOt quality. G. E. CADWELL. U.VNO Six wee1ts more winter.
