H. Rob- irson, tempvrary president. The entire territory west of the Missouri River is represented, the largest delega- tions being those of Colorado, Wyoming, | Texas, New Mexico, Arizona and Nevada A temporary organization was effected at | Salt Lake City during the recent conven- tion of the National Lavestock Associa- | tion. The convention will decide whethar | the new association shall be independent of the National Livestock Association or work as a subdivision of it. The officers of the national association are watching | the projected organization jealously, | ready to co-operate If it is to be an aux- fifary, but to fight it if it is to be inde- | pendent and a rival. Welcoming addresses were made at the | morning session of the convention by Governor Orman and Mayor Johnson, and responses were made on behalf of the o, ganization by F. 8. Lusk of California | and J, C. Van Doran of New Mexico. A. S. Van Doran explained the objects of the assocfation, whicn, he said, proposes to work to secure legislative protecticn | of the ranges for the cattle growers anc to enable them to meet the increasing de- | mand for beef both at home and abroad. | A. C. Cleveland of Nevada delivered an | address which evoked hearty appiause. Mr. Cleveland said: The wool growers of America have an asso- clation of their own and there is no reason why the cattiemen should not have one. There is no reason why a cattieman should con- | tect his interests. The West belongs to the cattlemen. They were the people who re- fmed the country from the Indlans. Who ever heard of a sheepman being killed by In- Many of us who are in the cattle s have had relatives killed by the In- 1 had a son killed by Indlans, but there were no sheepmen in the country at that time. Sheepmen are too slow to catch up with any danger. I am referring to those men who _have their all invested In five dogs, a wagén and a few sheep. These men have no respect for the rights of othefs. We in our country have no trouble with them, because there is a certain tax levied which keeps them out of the State. I have never myself had any trouble with sheepmen. I have avoided them when I could and they are anyway too slow to assoctate with cattiemen. At the close of Mr, Cleveland’s speech adjournment was taken until 2 o'clock. The .afternoon session was mainly devot- ed to the consideration of the constitution and by-laws presenteill by the executiva ot d R.

By this time an- other miner came, and he and Rainsville | followed the apparition. Rainsville ad- | vance@l a step nearer, when it suddenly | turned and disappeared. Then the whole miné force was distrib- uted through the mine. The first party found the apparition in its 1al position. | The ghost glided into the crosscut and the men followed until they came to the party | at the other end, who had seen nothing. A moment later most of fheir candles were mysteriously extinguished and the - miners stampeded to the mouth of the turnel. ‘Wrestler Cornell Defeated. PORTLAND, March 5—R. B.

When Miss Moore arrived in Dawson great was her surprise to learn that her intended was the husband of a dance hall singer, who a few days previously ejected him from her domicile. Misg Moore immediately went to the Sisters of Charity and has resided with them sinee, endeavoring to decide on the best policy to pursue.

Miss Moore is well kmown In San Francisco, where she was stenographer for H. S. Crocker & Co. for a long time. She was the first woman to pass the win. ter in Nome, and on her return was given much space in the newspapers.
