Applegate, one of the heavy sbeep owners of this county, who was in this city last weok, whon asked if there was likely to be any difficulty between the cattle and sheep men in this sectiou, said that the feeling between the two parties was very harmonious. He expressed him self as very much pleased with the fair treatment which the cattlemen were disposed to give them. In the northern part of Modoc county, whore he had fed the past winter, the cattle men proposed that they divide the range, one party taking everything west and the other everything east of the road. This proposition is con ski ered very satisfactory and was ac cepted. Mr. Applegate said that thore was over 11,000 sheep fed in the lava beds last winter, which with the in creaseto 5000 ni akes n early 10, OIK) thore now. This is all that the range will stand and unless some outside Bbeepman comes in and encroaches on the other range, there will be no rea son for any trouble between the two parties.
