" Anxious to Son Lincoln' * Committee. John Joyce Edson , chairman of the citi zens' ( irand Army oxocutlvo committee of this city , In speaking todny of the proposed visit here ot tno delegation from Lincoln to protest against nn appropriation of money to meet tlio oxpunsn of entertaining ttio vet erans In tuls city , vaid : "When Mr. Dccic- rry cf the house cnmmlttco on appropriations told me that the committee from'Lincoln was coming , nnd especially when I read its lesolutions , 1 expressed myself as being glud that the members would bo here for the reason that tbolr visit would result in a bet tor understanding of the situation nnd in good rather than harm From the wording of these resolutions it is manifest the members huvo not a correct comprehension of the relation of the municipal govoininont lo the general government. They uro evidently under the impression that an appropriation Is u > ked for directly irom ths treasury of the general government. They will llnd thnt this ap propriation is nslced for from the same lutid that every appropriation for the municipal expenses ot the district have beou made tlneu 1STS. " \Vhilo the delegation Is here I hope that tboy will take occasion to visit the headquarters of the citizens' com mittee und inform themselves of the plans and preparations that are being made by the people of Washington for the comfort , reception and entertainment of the old soldiers nnd to muko this encampment without question the most in teresting and memorable- that has over bcon or over will bo held. It certainly may bo regarded as a unique spectacle , nnd in a degrro nn amusing one , to see a body of mon from such a distant state as Nebrasica com ing all tno way to this citv to protest against n purely municipal monsuro. However , tiio citizens' committee is ghut to huvo this dele gation como on uud see what wo are doing , and In the event thnt somu time in the future the encampment should select Lincoln as n place of meeting , the citizens there would have some knowledge of how to undertake the task of making tha uocosoury arrange ments. In this souse I trust the visit will not be entirely ftuitleas. " 1'lutUlnus friers .Must Go. "Thcro Is not the least doubt In my mind that Iho anti-option bill will become a law at 1 this session of congress , " said Chnlrnian Hatch of the house committee on agriculture toTiiK BIK correspondent nltornoon. General Hatch added : "Tho untl-optlon bill is a revenue measure and therefore is privi leged and can bo called up In the house at any time when it does not antagonize another revenue or privileged measure. Mr. Bryan of Nebraska will hnvo the lloor first for tno free binding twine bill. U has boon arranged thnt I may call up the anti-option bill Imme diately after free binding Uvino 1103 been disposed of , which I presume will bo within ono week at most. The measure will bo pased by the house , and the senate bavinc already committed itself against speculation in farm proJucU ) , it Is expected that the bill will bo adopted bvthat boay without delay. It is the intention to hnvo the bill Into law in tlmo to uiva the growing wheat crop a fair chance und pro hibit lictltlous prices being placed upon the markets next falL" ol HID I'uro I'uiid IJill. Chairman Hatch was nskod what the pros pects were for the Paddock pure fooi bill. Ho said : "That bill will have to como up under n special order. As soon n the an'.i- optlon bill has bcon passed I intend to call n mooting of the committee on ngricultuio for the purpose of classifying these measuics Which huvo boon reported by the committee Which should bo llnally considered at this losbion , when wo will nil ; the committee on rules for a special order giving the lloor of tbo housa to our committee. The pure food bill wlllboihoilrut taken up under this special order , and I think that It will DO passed , although a very effective tight Is bolng mndo against it by manufacturers of adulterated Btilcos , quack patent medicines and articles of food which have boon so adulterated as to bo injurious to health. I don't think the measure Is supported br n Bolltary manu facturer or vendor of an honest article ex cept whcro the opposition is based upon a lack of Information as to the provisions of the hill. It will ( njuro no manufacturer or dealer who Is hone.su I urn .sorry to see that newspapers are being worked against the . " measure by manufacturers of nostrums "which would bo ruled out of thn market under any kind of n law Intended to protect tbo people from Imposition. " Looking fur Lost ltolitloii , Senators nro getting n number of letters every day asking for information about the onriy records of citizens who cannot bo found by their relatives dnd friends , upon tbo sup position that the census records will furnish Information which will load to tholrdis covery. There nro no records of individual naturalizations In the census reports. These uro to bo found In the local courts where thu naturalization proceedings uio had. John Hyde , special agent In ohargo of tlm agricul tural division ol the census bureau , writes Senator Paddock that the records of tha various census reports nro , after n certain length of time , dosirovo-J with the exception of the printed report , and thoru Is not in existence - istonco a slnslo scrap ol the original records of the census of I MO or ISM , about which a cltl/cn of Nebraska Inquires. Ho adds that in point of fuel there Is yory llttlo remaining of the records of the census of JiS ? ( ) . Concluding ho any * ; "Tho exact form of naturalization mav vnrv somewhat in the different states , but 1 huvo never teen any naturalization papers that stated the birth place of the person naturalized , orglvo any further particulars as to his fortnoi- domicile than merely the name of the coun try from which bo caino nnd the alluglnnco which bo renounced.

WHY THEY WENT TO WAR Story of the Wyoming Oattlo Barons' Trouble With tha Rustlers. FIGHTING FOR THEIR VERY EXISTENCE How llio ( irotrth of Wyoming Hn Hccn Itctnrdcd mid the Stntc'n NninuTnr- iilihcil hy the UniiiUimit ( Jrceil Tor Doinlnlniii , Wyo. . April25.-SpociaHoTilc [ DEE. ] Now that the rcculators have boon safely landed nt Tort Uuisoll aud there Is no reason to anticipate further trouble or ox- cltotnonl until they nro nrrnlRnoil for trial , tlicro Is opportunity to review the condition ofnlTalrs ttint has existed In Wyoming for several years past , of which the late war was the Icgltlrmito outcome. The old "Whom the gods would destroy they llrst mnuo mad , " scorns to have bcon most strongly exemplified In tbo cnso ot the cnltlo barons of this state , who , instead of tighten ing their hold on the rnngca and re covering to some ojctont the power they for many years wielded , have not only weakened their cause , but forfeited whatever of public sympathy they were entitled to. Ihclr action la talcing the law Into their own hands and Invading with an armed force the elate of Wyoming with out a shadow of otllclol sanction and with the avowed Intention of working their will on the men they opposed , bids lulr to react upon thorn seriously. If the law which ttioy Ignored ahull tnlto Its course these "rojju- hxtors" will llnd themselves a llttlo hotter oft than when they wore corralled near the T A ranch , and certainly no hotter than bcforo HID sortlo WUB made. It may bo that their contempt for the law was well grounded , yet it Is only Justice to Wyoming to think that the "regulators" made a monumental mistake - take in proceeding as they did. Struggle A Hln t OiliM. Wyoming has had a struggle for existence that has always boon bitter. Her advantages and resources have been Ignored , wdllo Ihoso of territories and states not so favored by nature wore lauded to the skies and heralded throughout both hemispheres. The tldo uf that "human sea , " the llrst low wash of whoso waves Inspired the poet to sing , Droko on the foothills of western Nebraska and Kansas ; the billows that surged upward to the crest of the Uocklos poured down the other sldo and made Oregon , Wasninglou , California , Utah and Montana what they arc. Hut tbo fertile- valleys of Wyomlnir , tbo bionj plains with their covering of nutri tious nntlva crnsscs , the utiland meadows and the mountain' ! with their wealth of precious metals , xvoro col aside ns the pe culiar property of the rich ealtlmnen. The almost limitless ranges on which these lords of tbo plain fed their herds and HocKs were held under a domination utmost tyrannical. TLe small stockman was not wanted ; as the presence of his herd eomulicatcd tao round-up , mid made moro or loss boilicr In the way of keeping track of "ranco count. " Tuo cat tlemen know n good thing when they saw it , and they didn't put lorward any great efforts to build up villages and towns when the Union Pacific located Its stations nlonc tno overland route , nor elsewhere In the terri tory. As the employes of the big cattle com panies formed the major portion of the popu lation , itiia easy for the barons to control local politics and thus handle the local gov ernment. The Wyoming Stock Growers as sociation took port actively enough to see that its individual interests were properly cared for in the way of legislation. A pro vision of congress prevented special legisla tion , so general laws wore enacted embody ing the demands of the cattle barons , and the territory was theirs as much as though a government patent had bcon granted them. Laws wer'o enacted that placed in the bands ot the association , its oflicers and "agents" ( stock detectives ) absolute power and immunity from punishment where Judge Lynch was called in to act as arbiter and actually nuthoiizerl the payment of the very liberal salaries drawn" by tbo so-called agents from the county treasuries. Thus the whole property of tbo state was taxed In tbo intcre.st of a single class which possessed no claim for such extraordinary favor that could not with equal propriety have been advanced by an association composed of grocers , of dry goods merchants or mon from any of the trades or professions. The plains and val leys were patrolled by stock detectives , under the control of n chief dctoctlvo repre senting the Stock Growers association and armed a : well as paid at tbo cost of the tax payers. I'lcnsaut rcaturos of the ItolKii. It was impossible to leave Cheyenne orany ono of the cities of soutborn Wyoming and drive or rlda any distance without seeing a man mounted on a broncho loom up from one. sldo or the other , with his Winchester ready for Instant uso. A stranger was regarded aa a legitimate object of suspicion , especially if ho was out for a hunt and carried liroarini ) , while a llttlo cavalcade of immigrants from tbo middle states , whoso horses did not bear tbo omnlpotont brand of some owner well known to the lynx-eyed detective , was sura to bo held up and the drivers put through a rigid course of questioning as to where they cnmo from , where tbay got their stock , and where they wore going. Every man with an unbranded horse or team was regarded as under obligations to nrovo that ho was not a thief. Tbo laws of the roundup , for the division of mavericks , concerning the display of hides of slaughtered animals , etc , , were on a par with the system of patrol , and were framed with n view to protecting perfectly the inter est of the men in whoso behalf they had bcon enacted. In dealing with the public domain the cattle tlo barons wont very much on the plan of that celebrated cotcrlo of English lords who rcoollod against Henry IV. they parcelled out the kingdom amongst themselves buforo yet a blow had boon struck to win title. It Is yet Iio.ih In the minds of thoroadingpubllo how the ledoral government was compelled to destroy miles on miles ot fencing erected without warrant of law , that the public do main might bo loft clear to the people. Vol umes could bo written in detailing the ma- ncouvros of these lords to gain control of the fertile plains and water courses to the exclu sion of their humbler and loss powerful com petitors , and of the annoyances und persecu tions of the settler who tiud dared to 11 lo his declaratory statement or make bis homestead application for n quarter section of the range. Of course it wus a struggle for existence on the part of the cattlemen. They know that with the coming of tbo settler their herds must go. The ranges were broad , but wuen cut up by the homesteaders the move ments of the L-reat bords weio hampered , und till * wus what the cattlemen sought to avoid. The settlement of the territory meant , in a measure , tbo extinction of the cattle baron , ana the latter opposed the coining of the immigrant as strenuously as ho might. Nor did the ruleis quibbla as to the administra tion of the drastic laws they had had unacted , bjomo qualms of conscience may have been felt by the eastern stockholders when read ing of the lynching of a horse thief or n cattle thief "rustlers" they are called -but the ngonts of the Wyoming Stock Growers association proceeded as persistently as Thomas do Torquomada. Manv instances of the energy with which the offenders against tbo cattlemen's law were pursued and punished would bo given. The death of Jim Avortl and "Cattle Kale" may bo cited as an Illustration. But this sort of thing couldn't always exist. 1'eoplo lopl coming to the territory In despite of the manifest drawback of the stock growers association's displeasure. The fertile soil and limitless mineral .vcalth attracted thousands , and It uamo to pass that public opinion raised a barrier ugulnst which the laws of the stockmen beat liupotcnaly. I'.innliii ; of tlui J'mulul run n. With the prospective admission of the ter ritory as a state , citizenship took on n now meaning. The right * of property were to be guaged by a now standard , and the strength of the barons in politic * was broken , The race of real rustlers died out to a great extent - tent when the people arose In indignation against the burons and elected a legislature that repealed the charter of the Wroming Stock Growers association , wiped from Iho statute book the moat objectionable of the stock lawn , including that under wli'.cu ' "agouti. " were paid from county treasuries , and created the stock commission to look after utock interests in the then territory. The stock npouts , tbo chief detective udd Judge Lynch all went out of otllco touather , or , at least , they censed to do buslncis at the expense of tbo taxpayers , and tn ro was n temporary -llsrippenrnnco of the armed patriots . .f ran ) the plains and the unarmed "stiff" tbhl WA wont to adorn the telegraph polo or tho'i/allowx-llko gates on the ranch tcmoto frprn ho railroad. Now and then there wns iv banging like tnnlot "Cattlo Kate , " nway oft from the cities , bul there wus no Borlon * ntltMfa on the part of barons to restore Ibq olU prestige of the association until ln > tycnrv when , once moro , "Iho ring" controlled Cboycnno the machin ery ot the now stnto. 1'hcti were heard om inous murmuring * . TVioprpan of the blc stockmen openly advocated a return to the halter and tbo Winchester ; and the cry was raised that unless somtuhhig was done to rid the range of tbo bands of rustlers with which It wns claimed tboy were infested , herds representing an nhormous Investment of capital would bo withdrawn from the stnto. It wns complained that the legally constituted authorities xvoro indolent or un- abto to rid the country of the alleged evil and that u condition ot absolute outlawry prevailed - vailed over the whole atnte , whllo it was im possible , If nn arrest WIM made , to secuio conviction at the hands of any Jury that could bo otnpnnnclod. \Vlmt the Shorlli'H Said. At this very time tbo sheriffs of sovorixl of the largest counties , on which the greatest nmount of "ruiUl'i1 was advertised ns going on , stated that there wns loss stock stealing going on than for many yonr.s , and that there had not bcon In their respective jurisdictions a single case reported or'uid ro- questca by a single cattle owner for months. It appeared that the heavy owners had comate to cfnss small stockmen under the tltlo of rustlers and that It was In reality n war on them and for the rcconquost of Ino ranges that xvas bclnc waged. The agitation wns kept up until the assassination of two men In control Wyoming under circumstances so brutal as to arouse public symnatby for the victims , and there was a brief cessation of hostilities , which broke out utrcsh upon the Invasion of the state the by self-styled regu lators. it Is not generally behoved that tbcro has boon , of Into any considerable nmount ot rustling done , for a few years the depres sion that has boon felt In every branch of business throughout the west has affected the stock interests , the range facilities were constantly becoming moro circumscribed , and stock raisers grow discouraged over the situation. A fair Idea of the spirit which prompted the recent raid Is seen in the reso lution adopted by the Montana Stock Growers association n few dajsago and in the policy of certain Wyoraini : newspapers , which still Insist that there U not proper protection for the cattlemen of the state , and that , In the nbscnco of such protection , thcro is butouo alternative , vlx : To pro tect themselves which means the rope and the rilli' . Conduct oftho ScttkTK. It would seem that If proof of the disposi tion of the homesteader und the small stock man to see Justlco done were needed It would bo found In their conduct during the war Just ended. Not a shot wns llrcd on the prisoners on the trip from Fort McICinnoy to tbH city ; there wns not the slightest ground for suspecting that an attempt would bo made to ditch the special train ; thcro Is no reason to think that tr.o Invaders will not have a fair and Impartial trial. On the con trary , there is much mete cause for believing - ing that if any of the regulators are con victed they will bo shown the utmost leni ency. If not absolute executive clemency in the shape of pardons. Ono powenul ally of the heavy cattlemen Is found In the English colonists , who have bought bugo tracts of lands in various sec tions of tbo state , on which they huvo in- vo.ted hundreds of thousands of dollars , in troduced the linost , blooded stock from the old world , and Included In their ranches many sections of tha 'public ' domain. As n rule , they resent moro -bitterly , though , per haps , moro uncomplainingly , the Intrusion of tbo "rustler' ' element than the American breeders themselves. iTho bend of ono of the largest of those English outtits loft the coun try after ho bad been ' brought Into court for fencing tu government land anil Is still abroad. Another fenced In a tract of land tweity-six ) miles long , fol lowing the Danks of the Big Larnmio river , so that It was virtually out of tbo question for settlers in the SybillQ region to make a trip to Laramlo in the summer tlmo on ac count of the impossibility of getting water for their animals along the route. Only n Xiitur.U Kosult. To make a long Btory short , the present troublous condition of affairs is a culmina tion of n Qght that has boon waged for years between tuoso1 who wont west early in the history of the Union Paclllo and acquired a monopoly of the ranges and these who fol lowed later \\lth loss money and battled for a place an tbo plains or a ranch in the mountains. The contest was embittered by tbo methods of the monopolists , who did not seek redress for real or fancied grievances in thn courts , but assumed the prerogatives of court and executioner until it was as much as a man's lifo wns worth to array himself against them. Then the barons had a strong influence for years with the o 111 cars of the law , controlled the territorial assembly nnd had friends In high places by the score. They obtained in many instances that of which they now coin plain most loudly tbo rustlers possess , au thority nnd power in the Jury room. When they saw thli slipping liulo by little from their grasp they at llrst essayed to frighten tbo public by their threats of withdrawing tbolr herds from tbo state and thus largely reducing the assessed valuation , then pro tested their inability to get Justlco at the hands of the authorities , and finally went on the war path. ISlumtorcil from Start to Finish. In taking this stop Its effect on the wolfnro nnd good uamo of the state scorns to have boon wholly lost sight of , nor did the loaders of former years interfere to avert the catas trophe. A moro ill-advised , Ill-conducted and calamitous campaign could scarcely have been inaugurated , and its otTects on a young state just coming to tbo front , cannot fail to bo disastrous , unless this matter Is fully and finally adjudicated by the courts nnd peace is restored on the plains nnd in the valleys. It Is no longer sufficient to temporize ize , nor will outlawry bo tolerated on the part of range barons or rustlers. Judge Lynch and the assassin must together say farewell , and the homesteader receive equal protection with the cattle breeder , oven though the latter be a millionaire. BUK.V Tnr.KK.
