An Omahou's Rascaiity.

An overland passenger from the
backwoods of Pennsylvania, arrived
here yesterday morning, en- route to
Salt Lake City. He was short of
money, and in his perplexity, a conf
dence man, who had becomed informed
as to the. financial embarrassments OF
the Pennsylvania, approached him
and offered for the sum of S27.50 to
get the keystone ruralist through to
the capital of the Mormon land. 1t
was no sooner said than done. The
money was paid, and the traveller re-
ceived the following note: 'Conduc-
tor Thompson: Please pass the bearer
to Salt Lake on your train. T. Ander-
son." 1t was a Ease of "a fool and
his money soon parted" The last

A Groan From Denver.

There will remain some chance to
fight for the Denver Pacific even after
the Cheyenne extension is completed.
If the pro rating law be enforced much
of the through traffic and travelbetween
the East and the Pacific coast will nat
urally pass over the Kansas Pacific, and
also V e the Denver Pacific. In this
way the latter road may secure fully as
much business as it is now able to COM
mand. Indeed, the loss of business
which the Denver Pacific has for years
sustained by the refusal of the Union
Pacific to comply with the law, has
doubtless been much greater than the
loss it will suffer by reason of the eX-
tension of the Colorado Central to
Cheyenne. Shut out from all share in
the through business, the chances of
the Denver Pacific to secure business
enough to make it pay and render it
valuable, are at best none too great.
But admitted to that share in the
through business which the law guar
antees it, it would be able to endure
the competition of the Colorado Cen
trail to whatever points it may be eX-
tended. Denver Tribune.

Said ponies have strayed from my

Canadian pony, very small, generally
plump and fat; has heavy black name
and tail. A perfect boys saddle pony,
the hoof brand II. G. which he had on
has probably worn out. 1t is possible
that he may have left the herd before
it crossed the mountains, and may be
found east on Horse or Pole creek. The
other is a bright sorrel, two years old,
stud colt; no brand; has star on fore
head, white on hind feet. Has been
seer with the herd on Laramie river.

For several days past Fred Schwartze,
with several men and teams, some of
them being from Jack Bowman's Hat
creek ranch, have been working upon
the new cutoff road between Fort
Laramie and Hat creek, and the work
is now nearly completed. Next week
the stage company will build two sta
tions on this new road and at once
begin running over it.
Schwartze and Bowman, both good
judges, estimate that this will cut off
fully fifteen miles in distance, and
make a saving of at least three hours
in the running time of the coaches over
the route now travelled, which, between
the Fort and Bowman's is somewhat
hilly. With this and the cutoff of
sixteen miles between Cold Springs and
Deadwood, the Cheyenne route will be
the shortest and best to the Hills, and
as fine a road as there is in the Union.

THE RAILROAD STRIKE.
Dur dispatches of the past few days
~. e.Ju ~ 18th o~ooourts IF tho

Our dispatches of the past few days
have fairly teemed with accounts of the
great railway strike on the Baltimore
s. Ohio railroad, and to-day we print
the startling announcement that the
Erie, Pittsburg s. Fort Wayne and other
roads are practically blockaded by the
extension of the disaffection among
their employees. The Union Pacific
employees are uneasy over the recent
reduction of from five to ten per cent.
in wages, and mutterings have been
heard all along the line, as well as on
the Central Pacific, where the company,
in addition to making a similar reduc-
ton, paid off its men in silver, in real
ity giving them only about ninety cents
on the dollar of their just dues. AT a
meeting held in Omaha Thursday night,
the matter was considered, a majority
of the speakers counselling moderation,
with a strike as a last resort.
The probable success of the strikers
on the eastern roads will undoubtedly
give the employees of the great overland
routes confidence in their ability to
compel the companies to forego the an
nounced reduction, and we are in
hourly expectation of news that a gem
eral strike has taken place between
Omaha and San Francisco. If the
companies refuse to accede to the de-
mands of their workmen, there will
undoubtedly be great delay in the move-
ment of trains, as well as trouble along
the line.
In the east troops were promptly sent
to the scene, and there too large bodies
of men a be gathered and used by
the civil authorities. Out here the case
is different. The country is not thick
ly settled, and at the points where a
strike would assume most formidable
proportions the employees could success
fully resist interference. We hope
there will be no trouble, but the out
look is not at all encouraging.

The Lonnmont Extension.

Capt. p. S. Reed, roadmaster, and
Mr.. j. A. Emrick, boss bridge builder
of the Colorado Central, have arrived
here for the purpose of putting in the
first bridge on the Longmont extension,
which will be so feet in length, SPAN
ming Lone Tree creek neal Hazard.
Track will be laid to the bank of the
stream at once, so as to facilitate the
forwarding of material for the bridge.
By the time this is completed the grad
ers will be well out of the way of the
track layers, and iron will be forwarded
and laid rapidly.
From the Longmont end of the line
comes word that the streams are all
very high, causing some Inconvenience
and delay in prosecuting the survey,
but Capt. Berthoud expects to connect
his line with Col. Evans some distance
north of Fort Collins to-day (21st.)
The grade stakes will all be set on the
first ten miles out from Longmont by
tonight, ready for the graders. The
road will run fully three miles through
splendid fields of wheat before reaching
Big Thompson, and the graders will
not be put into them until after the
h%arvesters have opened the way, but if
plows and scrapers can be bought a
large force will be put upon the moe
cupied ground in a few days. A side
track is to be put in at Little Thomp-
son for the accommodation of the grain
and hay interests, and from the looks
of the crops it will be one of the busiest
stations upon the whole line. A trifiing
change has been made i'll the line of
the road at Big Thompson, owing to
difficulty in obtaining the right of way
through the town of st. Louis, and the
track has been located about n mile
west of the line originally surveyed.
The immense fields of wheat on either
side of the railroad line give promise of
a remunerative freight traffic for the
road as oon as it is completed, the
whole country from Longmont to Fort
Collins for miles on either hand being
an almost unbroken field of waving
grain, thickly studded with, the homes
of well-to-do farmers. 1t is certainly
the garden of Northern Colorado.

Forty Five Years Ago.

A party of miners who have been
prospecting in the Big Horn country
found, at the ~headwaters of the Wind
river, a name carved in a tree with the
date 1882. 1t was a cottonwood tree,
and its appearance indicated a growth OF
about that length of time. The name
was so overgrown with the bark, that
but a few of its letters were traceable.
The large figures however were dis.
tinctly outlined, bearing the date 1882.
That portion Of the country is thickly
inhabited with beavers, and beaver
dams are very plenty. 1t is supposed
that the carving on the tree was the
work of some old hunter, and that he
was at work trapping beavers.
