SENATOR TELLER EXPLAINS Ho Mas no Intentions of Deserting the | Republican Party, SUBJECT OF HIS INTERVIEW WITH POLK | It HMad no Reference to the Nomination of an Independent-Pree Silver Presid Tickot ~Prospects of the Pure Food BilL, 513 FoURTEENTI STREET, Wasnixartoy, D, C., April 25, Senator Teller was very indignant today over the announcement through the press that he had been in consultation with Prosi- dent Polk and other farmers alliance repre- sentatives with a view to the nomination of an independentfroe coinage presidential ticket and that he had consented to accept the presidential nomination on a free coinage platform with Mr. Polk as a running mate, “The statemeut is not only false in overy particular, but absurd,” said Senator Teller w Tue Bee correspondent. I have never indicated to anyono a desiro to leave the re- publican party and I have no intention of so doing. ‘1 did attond & confercnce of a number of allianco reprosontatives aud domocrats last weok at which tho freo coinage issue was discussed, but the coufer- or tho solo purposs of forming a bimotallic leaguo to be composed of meu who are in favor of the free coinage of silver as well as gold, to include men in all political parties, If it was the purpose of anyono at hiat conferenco to form an indopondent po- litical party or put a presidential ticket in the ficid it did not_inciude me, for I am in tne republican party to stay. A vortion of the speech I delivered last week in favor of frec coiuage has been dis- torted in a manner to v annoying to me. 1did not say, as been roported, that the four silver' producing states would leave the ropublican party il a free comage bill was not passed. What 1 dia say aud meant was that there wasserious dangoer of tuose states refusing to support the repub- ilcan ticket, as they bavo oeen doing, if the republican party inserted in its platform at Minneapolis a gold standard plank. I have 10 sort of idea that froe coinage will be the basis of organization for an independent po- litical party. Anxlous to See Lincoln's Committee, John Joyce Edson, chalrman of the eiti- zens’ Grand Army executive committee of this city, in speaking today of the proposed visit here of the delegation from Lincoln wo protest against au appropriation of money to meot the expensn of entertaining the vol- 15 in this city, said: “When Mr. Dock- ery cf the house committee on appropriations told me that tho committee from Lincoln was coming, ana especially when I reaa its resolutions, 1 expressed myself as beiug glad that th nembers would be here for the reason that their visit would result in a bet- ter understanding of the situation and in good rather than barm From tho wording of thoso resolutions it is manifest the wmembe avo not a correet comprehension of the the municipul government to government. They uro evidently und impression that an approvristion is usked for directly 1rom tha treasury of tho gencral government. ['boy will find that this ap- propriation is asked for from the saine tund that every uppropriation for the municipal oxpenses” of the district bave beeu made acw 1878, Whilo the delegation Is here I hopo that they will take occasion 1o visit tho hcadquarters of the citizens' com- mittee and inform thomsclves of the plaus and proparations that are being made by the people of Washington for the comfort, reception and onteriainnient of the oid solgiers and to make this encampment witbout question the wmost in- teresting and memorable that has ever been or ever will be held. It certainly may be arded as o unique spectacle, and in a ree an amusing one, to see a body of men from such a distant stato as Nebraska com- ing all the way to this eity to protest against a purcly municipal measure, ~ However, the citizens' commitiee is glua 10 huve this dele- gation como on and seo what we are doing, and in the ovent that somo time in the futuré the encampment shouid select Liucoln ns a placo of meeting, the c zens there would have some knowledge of how to undertase the task of making tho necessary arrange- monts. In this sense I trust tho visit will not be entirely fruitless.” Fictitlous Prices Must Go, *“Thore is not the least doubt in my mind that the anti-option bill will bocome a law at this session of congress,” said Chairman Hateh of the house committeo on agriculture to Tur BEE correspond n.

As soon as the anti- option bill has been passed I intond to call n wmeeting of tho comuiittes on agriculture for the purposo of classifying those measures which have been reportad by tho committee which should bo finally considered at this sossion, when we will nsk the committeo on rules for a special order giving tho floor of the house to our committoe. Tho pure food Dill will be the first taken up under this special order, and I think tnat it will bo passed, although a very effective fight is boing mado ugaiust it by manufacterers of adulterated spions, quack patent medicines and articles of food which Lave been so adulterated as to bo wjurious to healch. I don’t think the meusure is supported by a solitary manu- facturer or vendor of au honest article ex« cept whero the opposition is based upon a lack of information as to tho provisions of tho bill.

THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: WHY THEY WENT T0 WAR Story of the Wyoming Oattle Barons' Trouble With the Rustlers, FIGHTING FOR THEIR VERY EXISTENCE How (he Growth of Wyoming Has Been Returded and the State's Nar nislied by the Un; Cueyesss, Wyo., April25.—[Special to Tne Bee.]—Now that the regulators bave been safely landed at Fort Russell aud thero is no reason to anticipate further trouble or ex- citement until they are arvaigned for trial, there is opportunity to review the condition of affairs that has existed in Wyoming for several years past, of which the late war was the legitimate outcome. The old adage, “Whom the gods would destroy they first make mad,” seems to bhave been most strongly exemplified in the caso of the catule barous of this state, who, insteaa of tighton- ing their hold on tho ranges and re- covering to some oxtent tho power they for many years wiclded, have not only weakened their cause, but forfeited whatever of public sympathy thoy were entitled to. Their action in taking the Inw into their own bands and invading with an armed forco the state of Wyoming with- out a shadow of ofticial sanction and wita tho avowed intention of workiog their will on the men they opposed, bids fair to r them seriously. If the law whic ignored shall take its course theso Iators’” will flud themselves a littlo better off than when they were corralled near the T A ranch, and certainly no better than heforo the sortie wus made. It may bo that their contempt for the law was well grounded, yot 1t is ouly justice to Wyoming to think that the “regulators’ made & wonumental mis- tako 10 proceeding as they did. Wyoming's Struggle Agnlust Odds. Wyoming has Lad a struggle for existence that has always becn bittor. Hor advantagoes and resources have been ignored, wiilo those of territories and states not so favored by nature wero lauded to tho skies anc heralded throughout both hemispheres. The tide of that “human sea,” tho first low wash of whoso waves inspired the poet to sing, broke on the foothills of wostern Nebraska and Kansas; the billows that surged upward to the crest of the Rockies poured down the other sido and made Orogou, Washingion, alifornia, Utah and Montaua what they are. But the 'fertile valloys of Wyoming, tho broad piains with their covering of nutr tious native erasses, tho ubland meadows and the mountains with thewr wealth of precious metals, were set aside as the pe- culiar property of the rich cattiemen. The most. limitless ranges on which theso lords of the plan fed their herds and flocks w hela under a domination almost tyrannical. The smail stockman was not wanted; as tho presenceof bis herd complicated the round-up. aud made more or less boter in th keeping track of “range count.” tle saw it, aud they didn’t put Torward any great efforts to build up villiges aud towns when the acific located its stations along tho overland route, nor elsewhere in tho terri- y. A3 the employes of the big cattle com- panies formed the major portion of the popu- lation, it was easy for the barons to covtrol local politics and thus haualo the local gov- ernment. ‘The Wyoming Stock Growers as- sociation took port actively enough to see that its individual interests wero properly cared for in tho way of legislation. A pro- vision of congress provented special legisia- tion, so general laws were enacted embody- 1ng the demands of the cattie barons, and tho territory was theirs as much ns though a government patent had been granted them. Laws were cnacted that placed in the bands of the association, its oficers and ‘agents” (stock detectives) absolute power and immunity from punishment whereJudge Lyuch was called in to act as arbitor and actually authorized the payment of tho very liveral salaries drawn by the so-called agents from the county treasuries. Thus the whole proverty of the state was taxed in the interest of a single class which possossed no claim for such oxtraordinary favor that could uot with equal propriety have been advanced by an association composed of grocers, of dry goods merchants or men from any of the trades or professions. T'he plains and val- loys wero patrolled by stock dotoctives, under the coutrol of & chief detective repre: g the Stock Growers association and armed as well as paid at the cost of the tux- payers. Pleasant Features of the R It was 1mpossible to loave Cheyenne orany one of the cities of southern Wyoming and drive or ride any distance without seeing a man mounted on a broncho loom up from one sido or the other, with his Winchester ready for instant use. A stranger was regarded as a legitimate object of suspicion, especially if howas out for a hunt and carried firearms, while a littlo cavalcade of immigrants from the middle states, whose horses did not bear the omnipotent brand of some owner well known to the lynx-eyed detective, was suro to be beld up and the drivers put through a Tigid course of questioning as to whero they came from, whero they got their stock, and where they were going. kvery man with an unbranded horse or team was regarded ns under obligations to prove that he was not a thief. The laws of the roundap, for tho division of mavericks, couceruing the display of hides of slaughtered aninials, etc,, wero on a par with tho system of patrol, and were framed with a view to protecting perfectly the inter- est of the men in whose bebalf théy had been enacted. In dealing with the public domain the cat- tle barons went very | on the plan of hat celobrated coterie of Knglish lords who revelled against Henry IV.—thoy parcelled out the kingdom amongst themselves before yet a blow had been struck to win title, It i3 yet fresh in the minas of thereading public hoiv the federal government was compelled to destroy miles on miles of fencing erected without wurrant of la thai the public do- main might be left clear to the people. Vol- umes could be written in detailing the ma- nwuvres of these lords to galu control of the fertilo plains and water courses to the exclu- sion of their humbler and loss powerful com- petitors, and of the annoyances and persec tions of the settler who hud dared to file his declaratory statement or make his homestead application for a quarter seotion of the range, Of course it wus a struggle for exisience on the partof the cattlemen. They know that with the coming of the settler their herds must go. The rauges were broad, but when cut up by tho homesteaders the move- ments of the great hords were hampered, and this was what the cattlemen sought to avoid, I'tie settiement of the territory meant, in a measuro, the extinction of the cattle 'baron, aud the latter opposed the coming of the immigrant as strenuously as he might. Nor did the rulers quibblo as to the administra- tion of the drastic laws thoy had had anacted. Some gualms of couscience may have been felt by tho eastern stockholders when read- ing of the iynching of a horse thief or n cattle thief—"rustlers” thoy are called —but the ageuts of the Wyoming~ Stock Growers association proceeded as persistently as Thomas de Torquemada. Muny mstances of the energy with which the offenders against the cattlemen’s law were pursued and punisbed would be given. The death of Jim Averil and “Cattle Kate' may be cited asan illustration. But this sort of thing couldn't always exist, eoplo kept cowing to the territory in despite of the manifest drawback of the stock. growers association’s displeasure. Tho fertile soil and limitless miveral wealth attracted thousands, and it came to pass that public opinion raised & barrier against wkich the laws of the stockmen beat impotestly. Passiug of the Feudal Laws. With the prospective admission of the ter y as @ state, citizenship took on & new ulng. The rights of properly were Lo bo guaged by a new staudard, and the strength of the barons in politics was broken. The race of real rusticrs died out to a great ex- tent when tho people 8rose in indignation against the barons and electod a legistature that repealed the charter of the Wyoming Stock Growers association, wiped from the statute book the most objectionable of tue | stock laws, including thut under whicu *'agents’ were paid from county treasuries, and created the stock commission to look after stock interests in the tuen territory, The stock agents, the cbief dstective wad Judge Lynch all went out of office togother, or, at least, they ceased to do business 8L the expense of the Laxpayers, and thers was a temnoraty disappearance of the armed patriots feom the plains and the unarmod *stiff” tbht ¥as wont to adorn the telograph pole or the’irallows-like gates on the ranch remote from aho raileoad. Now and then there was A Bauging like tnat of “Catt ate,”” away oft from the cities, but there was no serions atltipt on the part of barons to restoro iha ol prestige of the Assoeiation unti) Iast yean when, once more, *‘the Cheyenne ring ot troiled the machin ery of the new state. “Then were heard om inous murmurings. Th6 organ of the big stockmen openly advocated a returs to the halter and the Winchester, and tho cry was raised that unless sombthing was done to rid tho range of the bands of rustlers with which it was claimed they were 1nfested, herds representing an ehormous investment of capital would be withdrawn from tho state, It was complaired that tho legally constituted authorities were indolent or un- abie to rid the country of tho alleged evil and thata coudition of absolute outlawry pre vailed over tho wholo state, whilo it was im- possible, if an arrest was made, to secure conviction at the hands of any jury that could be empanneled. What the Sherifts Said. At this very time the sheriffs of sevoral of the largest couuties, on which the greatest amount of ‘“rustiing” was advertised as going on, stated that there was loss stock stealing going on than for many yoars, and that there had not been in their respective jurisaictions a single case roported or mid re- Qquestea by a single cattle owner for months, It oppeared that tho heavy owners had come to class small stockmen ‘under the title of rustiers and that it was In reality a war on thewn and for the reconquest of the ranges that was being waged. Thoe agitation was Kept up until the assassination of two men in central Wyoming under circumstances so brutal as to_arouse public sympatby for the victims, and there was a brief cessation of hostilities, which broke out atresh upon tho invasion of the state by the self-styled regu- lators, 1t is not generally believed that there has been. of late any considerable amount of rusuling done. Kora fow years the depres- sion that has been felt in every branch of business throughout the west has affected the stock interosts, the range facilities wero constantly becoming moro circumseribed, and stock raisers grew discouragea over the situation, A falr iden of the spirit which prompted the recent raid is seen in the reso- lution adopted by the Montana Stock Growers association a few days ago and in the policy of certain Wyoming newspapers, which still jnsist that’ therois not proper protection for the cattlemen of the state, And that, in the absence of such protection, there is but oue alternative, viz: To pro- tect themselves—which means the ropo and the rifie, Conduct of the Settlers, It would seem that if proof of tho disposi- tion of the homesteader und tho small stock- man 1o see justice done were needed it would bo found in their conduct during the war just ended. Not a shot was fired on the prisoners on the trip from I"ort MceKinney to this city; there was uot the slightest ground for suspecting that an attempt would be made to ditch the special train; there is no reason to think that tre invaders will not have a fair and impartial trial. On the con- trary, there is much more cause for belio g thatif any of the regulators are con- vieted they will be shown tho utwost leni- cucy, if not absolute executive clemenoy in the shape of pardons. Oue powertul ally of the beavy cattlemen is found in the English colonists, who have bought buge tracts of lunds in_various sec tious of the st on which they have iu- vested hundreds of thousauds of dollars, in- troduced the finest blooded stock from' tho old world, and includea in their many sections of the ‘public domain. rule, they resent more - bitterly, though, per- haps, more uncowplainingly, tho intrusion of the ‘“‘rustler” eloment thun the American breeders themselves. The head of one of the largest of these English outfits left the coun- try after he had been vrought into court for fencing ‘in government land and is suill abroad. , Another fenced in a tract of land twenty-six miles long, fol- lowing tho banks of the Big Laramie river, so that it was virtually out of the question for settlers in the Sybilla recion to make a irip to Laramie in the summer time on ac- count of the impossibility of getting water for their animals along the route. Only a Naturil Result. To make along story short, the present troublous condition of afairs -is a culmina- tion of & fight thot has been waged for years between those who wont west early in the history of the Union Pacific and acquired a monopoly of the ranges and those who fol- lowed later with less money and battled for a place on tho plains ora ranch in the mountains, The contest was embitterea by the methods of the monopolists, who did not seek redress for real or fancicd grievances in the courts, but assumed the prerogatives of court aund executioner untit it was as much as a man's life was worth to array himself against them. Then the barons had a strong iofluence for vears with the ofticers of the law, controlled the territorial assembly and had ' friends in bigh places by the score. They obtained in many instances that of which they now com plain most loudly the rustiors possess, au- thority and power in the jury room. When they saw this slipping little by little from their grasp they at first essayed to frighten the public by their threats of withdrawing their herds from the state and thus largely reducing the asscssed vauation, then pro- tested their inability to get justice at the hands of the authorities, and finally went on the war path, Blundered from Start to Finish, In taking this step its effect on the welfare and good uame of the state scems to have been wholly lost sight of, nor did the leaders of former years interfere to avert the catas- trophe. A" more ill-advised, ill-conducted and calamitous campaign 'could scarcely bave been inaugurated, and its effects on a young stato just coming 10 tho front cannot fail to bo disastrous, unless this matter is fully and finally adjudicated by tho courts aud peace is restored on the plains aad in tho valleys, It is no louger sufficient to tempor- 1z¢, nor will outlawry be tolerated on tho part of range barous or rustlers. Judge Lynch aod the assassin must together say farowell, and the homesteader receive equal protection with tho cattle breeder, oven though tho latter be a millionaire, BeeN Tue; —_— Dr Birnoy cures catarrh, BEE bidg sl s oA ATE WILD PARSNIPS, Four-Year-0ld Johnny Dow Poisoned While at Play, Little 4-year old Jonn Dow, son of Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Dov, who live at 232 Cameron strect, died sudaenly yesterday afternoon from eating wild parsnips, Mrs. Dow was spending theafternoon with hor sister, Mrs, Ashton, at Twenty-seventh and Pinckney stre Tho children of the two families went to a vacant lot near by to play aund while there found the poisonous parsnips, which grow out in that locality in great abundance.
