LOWENSTEIN Cattle Grow Fat on Russian Thistle, Garden City, Kas., Nov. 25.—The despised Russian thistle, which the Legislatures of Kansas and other yplains States have outlawed, are a tboom to the stockmen who own the} ‘great ranches of this State, Eastern| ‘Colorado and Western Nebraska. This plant, heretofore so great a! menace to the farmers, is now utilized | ‘by the ranchmen, and scores of herds | of cattle in this region are going: through the winter on the Russian! thistle as their only feed. Charles Norlin, a ranchman in Stanton County, near the Colorado line, is feeding Russian thistles to nearly 1,000 head of cattle, and he is enthusiastic over the results. He cut and stacked these thistles before the thorns or spines developed, and he declares the food is more nutritious | day and in Butler every Saturday to collect taxes for Charlotte township. for cattle than alfalfa.

Miss Edith Dark of Rich in the City of St. Louis. The Republicans held a meeting at Lebanon recently, and after several speakers had told of the necessity for more money to defend the Republi- cans holding the contested offices, the hat was passed, and some prom- ises and not much money obtained. In other localities meetings were not deemed necessary, but individuals were sent to solicit money. The Republicans appear suddenly to have become uneasy about these contests, although they tried to ridi- cule them out of court when they were instituted. The inference is that they dread a proceeding which threatens to expose causes for the large mojority in the City of St. Louis at the last election, when the Repub- licans lost ground in nearly every other section of the State. It was asserted by Republican lead- ers when the contests were instituted that they never would be pressed. These predictions ceased more than two months ago, when the Republi- cans began efforts to bring about de- lay and to prevent the Democrats ob- taining evidence on which to establish their charges.
