W. K. Monet wrote to Mr. South
worth of this city a few days ago
concerning the stock losses iu Har
ney county about DrowBoy nnd tho
south fork of the Malheur. The
letter was dated March IStli, and
stated that propels were not very
fluttering; the most of the country
was still buried in snow, but thu
south hillsides were bare and grass
growing nicely. The loss of stock
was fearful nnd many feeding yet
on grain nt '2 and .'I cents per lb,
and stock slill dying. Mr. Moll'et
thought that JI.'IJ jier cent, of all
stock both horses nnd cattle would
h. a low estimate of thu loss of an
imals that wcro fed. Horses fared
worse than cattle, as tho snow was
three feet deep and so lco?o that
they couldn't clear it away with
their feet it would fill in as fust as
they could net it away. Ho writes
also, that thu loss of stock ton years
ago was not a circumstance to the
past winter, and that newspapers
have cttiinated tho losses a great
deal lighter than they really are.

SOME COUGAKS KILLED.
.Mr. Win. Jefferd who lives on
Strawberry brought sonic cougar
scalps to town Tuesday which he
exchanged for county script, and
related to the Nkws man tho story
of the capture of three of them.
Dick Johnson had a fight with
them when they killed his dog, and
the following day Mr. Jell'erd,
Ralph Fisk, Hart Hardmau and
Mr. Johnson started out on snow
shoes to hunt the fierce wild beasts,
and along about noon succeeded in
killing one, and two more that were
seen made their escape. Tho boys
stopped under a piuo treo to eat
their lunch and were sitting there
talking when down jumped a large
cougar, and investigation lovoaled
another one up tho tree. War was
at once declared and both tho ani-.
mals were shot and their scalps
carried away as $10 remembrances
of the battle.
Thu tree was of thick foliage, anil
the cougars had been crouched
within a few feet of Fisk's snow
shows which ho had leaned against
tho treo, and tho guns of tho hun
ters wero also leaning against that
Banio treo, and it is needless to aav
that tho men felt relieved to think
they had not furnished a mual for
tliu bold colt and calf eaters.

being twentv-
than the parent House
will le a uioveiiicnt made, as soon
as tho figures from the new census
aro obtainable, to pars an appoint
ment bill. Should thu new ap
pointment bill bo passed by a s
cial session, as the republicans now
generally ndvise, tho measure can
lw carried out by twenty-four legis
latures which convene in January
or Fobrtinry of 1st) I. If enacted so
late as March I MM, tho legislatures
of about thirty-fivo states will have
to bo called iu sjiecial isession iu or
der to comply with the ptovisious
of tho act before the presidential
election. On a basis of !I55 mem
bers of the House, the electorul col
lege would have Mil members, and
tho successful candidates could go
through with tho magic 222. The
proper legislation can only bo de
layed by the census ollicers, who
are on their nu ttle to make a re
cord. Though he modestly and coylv
denies the fact, Senator Quay is af
ter tho scalp of Col. Canaday, the
sergeant-at-arins of the senate, who
holds his iHiMtion by favor of Sena
tor Sherman. A caucus of republi
can senators was held at Senator
Kdmuuds' this week at which it
was expected that tho subject of re
organizing the senate force of em
ployees would bo thoroughly din
cussed. The Senators present state
huwever, that they only talked
about the Montana senatorial mud
dle. With tho vote on tho Hlair bill,
terminates for a wliilo a How of elo
xiiencu that threatened tho very
life of republican institutions. In
six mouths longer of opiiortiinity,
Senator Hlair would have talked
tho liguro of Liberty oil' tho dome.
Think of a man talking himself tir
ed for thu better jmrt of eight con
secutive legislative days on a worn
out subject to an audieiKo fully in
formed on every phttEc of tho ques
tion. Small wonder that Senators
lied as from a pestilence and found
comfort only in the restaurant.
