whose store is situated on the corner
of Sixteenth and Ferguson streets.
He has been in business here for over
seven years, and suffered largely by
the fire of 1869. He is Il shrewd and
enterprising nan of business, and
has made large investments outside
of the liquor business, principally in
real estate adjoining Cheyenne, and
in stock. He exhibits his faith in the
future of this part of Wyoming in a
quiet and convincing manner, and it
speaks his views more fUrcibly than
words possibly cam:
allow much were your sales last
year,"
"Forty-fve thousand dollars"
"Iuow did they compare with your
sales of the previous year,"
My sales in 1873 were somewhat
larger"
"What amount of stock did you
carry on an average list year,"
About four thousand dollars"
What are the prospects of trade
for the present year,"
They are good. Think they are
better than they have been for three
or four years. The fact Is, people be
gin to learn hat we have a good
country north of US, and many new
settlers will locate in this country
the present year"
"Wlat do you say about the adj
vantages of Cheyenne as a business
centre?"
Cheyenne has several advantages
that ought not to escape the notice of
business men and those seeking a
place to make investments in. 1t is
at the junction of two railroads, the
Kansas Pacific and the Union Pacific;
and it is probable, from its situation,
that other roads, north and south,
will be built before long, which will
centre here. 1t is the doorway
through which Northern Wyoming
and Montana will he reached from
the line of the railroad. Its stock

wealth in the future. should North

L. MURIiIN,
On Seventeenth Street. The Colonel
is also an old resident in Cheyenne,
and has been engaged in business
here since the fall of 1867. The fire
on the night Of the 2nd of July last
destroyed one of his store buildings
and a large portion Of his stock, and
damaged his second store somewhat.
This fire inflicted a loss on him of
$500. There WAS no insurance on
buildings or stock. With commend
able energy and enterprise, he at
once erected a handsome, substantial,
two story, fire proof brick building,
with an eight foot stone cellar under
meath the whole structure, 23x6O feet,
ut n cost of $1,000: The lower store
and cellar is occupied by the pro-
prietor as n wholesale department in
wines, liquors and cigars, and the
upper story as a coy billiard room.
The adjoining building is used in the
retail trade. We ~propounded the
following questions TO the proprie-
tor:
about what were your sales for
the year 1912"
800 600"
"Huw did they compare with those
Of the previous year,"
IAN increase Of % per cent"
What amount of stock did you
carry the past year, on an average"
Z" In the nCighborhOod of SSOOO."
What do you consider the pros.
poets are for trade in Cheyenne the
present Year,"
Bids fair to be better than during
lS74."
What 30 you say generally are
the prospects of Cheyenne for the
future as a business point? and what
are your ideas of its Importance"
consider that the growth of
Cheyenne will steadily increase with
that of the West, and anticipate that
at an early day it will be the railroad
centre Of the North west.

The latest dispatches from WASH

Gov. Campbell as Third Assistant
Secretary Of State, a most honorable
Office, which the Governor will fiji
with credit to himself and profit to the
country at large. If this programme
is carried out, Ex-senator Thaycr, Of
Nebraska, will probably be nominated
Governor of this Territory, which
appointment, if we cannot have a
citizen of Wyoming nominated for the
place, would be most acceptable to
our people.

The Ottawa free trader. [volume] (Ottawa, Ill.) 1843-1916, 1875-01-16

On Saturday morning as Mr.. Bates, the mail
carrier between Ottawa and Mendoza, was com
ing south, when some three or four miles north
Of Ottawa,hc found the body Of man named Ed
ward Brady, lying by the roadside The body
was taken into the wagon and brought to the
city hall, where after few hours 1t was identi-
fled. 1t seems from evidence elected before the
inQuest-held by Squire Lockwood-that Mr.,
Brady, in company with Edward Burke, was in
Ottawa during the day on Friday, and together
they started home late in the afternoon, As will
be remembered on the evening in question, a
very strong northwest wind, with intense cold
prevailed The location of their home compelled
them to face the storm, and when out some three
miles it is supposed that the team became IN
manageable, and Mr.. Brady was either thrown or
fell out, stunning himself. Mr.. Burke being also
bcnumbcd could give no assistance, and in a
frozen and inscnsible condition, reached home
late at night He was removed to the house
where he still lies in critical condition The
body of Mr.. Brady, after the the inquest, was de-
lyercd to his uncle, John McManus.
The deceased was about twenty years Of age,
and leaves two brothers.

On the Right Track.

We learn that the business men arc making a
move toward securing more effective fire de-
partment. 1t is proposed to organize a full com
pany of our staunchest business men to operate
a hook and ladder truck, provided the committee
on fire and water from the council will follow
the instructions of their colleagues and purchase
the equipments,
There is probably more need Of this addition
to the department than OF any other unless 1t be
a better supply OF hose.
Let the ball be kept rolling until we have a
department as effective as any Of our neichbor-
ing cities and as well equipped as our needs de-
