KEPFORD'S SUCCESS WITH FRUIT "We have demonstrated In the Isfca j wooa section,” said County Commis sioner Kepford on Monday when in Cody, "that fruits of all kinds may be successfully raised in this high altit tude I am personally meeting with great encouragement on my ranch. My trees. 200 in number, set out by me are loaded down with the finest specimens of apples. 1 have the Tras cendant Crab. Duchess of Oldenburg, rhe Wealthy and the Yellow transpar ent. Now the Wealthy apple is one of the very best winter apples grown. j and one that will make a gret t market' over the entire country. Why U is really astounding to how small berries like currents, goose berries grow. We. up our way no long regard fruit growing an experi ment. Chester a neighbor of mine has a splendid amount of fruit too. His trees Just as mine are over burdened and will have to be pickea before harvesting the apples." STANLEY GOMES BACK AT MR. CANNON-REPUDIATING THE YELLOW STREAK ACCUSATION Cody. Wyo., Aug. 14. IMI. Mr. 8. A. Nelson. Powell, WjtJ. Dear Btr: , You probably read the answer to your challenge some time ago now what are you going to do. sit around like a hump on a 'og and jo nothing': If that man Cannon wants to wrestle as baa as you pretend then why don't some of you get busy. If it wasn't for that great big Yellow Streak down the hole bunch o» you fellows back, then you might get busy and do some thing. Now you have accused me 01 all kinds of Yellow Streaks and of crawling in some hole ..hd pulling the said hole in after me Now get busy and see who has got the yellow str ak. You must think l uni afraid of that squint eyed Irishman that hasn't even got the nerve to make a good match. Why, say if ever that man goes to wrestle before a good club and he takes the sitting pose and proceeds to keep it, he wont do any more wrestling than he did here he would get hissed off of the stage and would be done for. Now there never was a wrestler that put a boont on the game of wrestling the way he did. He has got a yellow streak that extends all down his spinal column. Now Mr. Nelson I guess this will hold you and that would be wreßtler for a while. So long, ta. ta, O. L, STAbM-EY, Cody, Wyo., P. O.

(Special) - That the mutton grower must go out of business, along with the woolgrow er. if the tariff on wool is materially reduced, was made clear by Senatoi 1 Warren In his remarks on the Under wood bill. The senator called atten ! tion to the fact that the groat mutton I supply of this country could only be j preduced in the range country; that it milst then be re-shipped to the corn ! country for finishing, and again ro shipped to market before the con sumer received it. This mutton, hr declared, could not be produced for the returns on mutton alone and with wool a mere by-product. A lower tar iff on wool, therefore, would not only afTect the clothing supply of this coun try, but the meat supply as well. Democratic speakers in both' house and senate have expressed what seems to be the general party Idea, that because sheep can be raised in other countries at less expense than in our own, we should therefore turn the business over to the foreigner. Replying to Senator Williams* re marks along this line. Senator War ren sakl: "On a former discussion in this chamber, when the question of wool duties was being considered, the sena tor from Mississippi saeeringly r - marked that he would have the wools raised In foreign countries rather than in our own, because of better cond.

When outsiders see the magnificent corn, Clyde oats, cabbage, pumpkins, alfalfa, wheat, berries and almost everything under the sun that may ha grown, they will gain new conceptions of the possibilities of an irrigated sec tion and of the Big Horn Basin in particular. The committee did not neglect tho mineral world of Park County either. There were samples of oil sent by the Shoshone Oil Co., and fine specimens of copper ore from a mine in which Jeff Chapman is interested in. Also sulpur from mines near Cody and which will yet make fortunes for those that are engaged in exploring them.
