Important 10 Wool Growers.

The Colorado Farmer, in an article
on the wool interest of that State,
makes some sensible remarks which
are equally applicable in Wyoming. We
quote:
1t is very evident that our woods are
improving in quality as well as increas-
ing in quantity. Daily inquiries are
coming to us from Eastern buyers and
manufactures, about our present clip,
showing that our woods are beginning
to be appreciated, and it will not be
long until we will get what they are
worth, which we can say has not been
true in the pa It; buyers have m; de us
believe that our light dust was worse
for them than the excessive grease and
black dust of the East. We have sold
clips that averaged twelve pounds in
Illinois for twenty-five cents when good
merino wool of long and strong staple
almost devoid of yolk averaging eight
pounds the same year only brought in
our market twelve and fifteen cents per
pound. Light has been gradually
dawning upon us, and this year will
show that our woods will bring nearly
their value. 1r
Colorado sheep are shearing this year
fully Il fourth lighter than last year, and
even the advance of the wool markets
of the East, will hardly make up the
deficiency. This loss in weight is not
due to Il shorter staple or less bulk OF
wool, but because our country has been
visited with several heavy rain storms
just previous to shearing, so that what
little yolk and dirt there was in our wool
was washed out.
1t bebooves every breeder to be more
cart full in the selection of rams, care
better for his sh, ep and proper hand
ling of his wool, if he expects to realize
all the profits that are in the business.

Remove the Rubbish.

Scarlet fever is a disease which re-
quires poisonous air, impure water and
personal uncleanliness for its rapid
propagation in the human system. This
dread disease is reported to have already
made its appearance in Cheyenne, while
W know that in adjacent towns its
victims are numbered by dozens and
scores. Onr alleys and some of our
streets are in very filthy condition, and
have been SC for many months. Num-
bers of families are using impure wa
ter, and these things, combined with
tie hot, e%nervating weather which
prevails, makes the danger from the
fever more imminent and appalling.
THE LEADER has steadily urged the
cleaning-up of the streets and alleys
ever since the frost left the ground last
spring. 1t is a matter Of vital interest
to every parent in the CITY, and we are
pleased to find our efforts seconded
even at this late day. We hope the
needed work will be performed, and
speedily.

"I'm bound for the Big Horn, judge,

sible. I've got my party AL fixed and
the boys are waiting for me. OF course,
you know, judge, L dropped around to

The speaker was Il man whom officer
Curran led into the police court yester-
day morning. lie found him at the
corner of Eddy and Sixteenth strte cts
the night before, prancing up and down
the cross-walk daring the crowd to
knock n chip off Ills shoulder. When
the officer approached and ordered him
to be quiet he squared off and struck
at him, but was tapped on the head
with a billy and wilted at once, crying
''I'l go-I1l go!'
The officer made his statement and
the justice remarked:
Young man, you'll have to defer
your Big Horn trip for the present. 1
shall send you to the bake-oven for ten
days if you don't fork over S1S at
once."

Last year TIE LEADER endured and

A<noI ySuI AEG OsENoAoW 0AAV'
actually thrived under the bitterest de-
nunciations ever showered upon any
journal, just because we insisted that
there were rich mines in the Hills.
This year we are being denounced for
sending more men into the Hills than
the Hills will hold. A correspondent
Of the New York Herald, a
worthless hummer who tends bar in a
Deadwood gambling hell, says in a re-
cent letter that 1.-THE LEADER has
made lying respectable" Now we will
make a statement which a easily be
proven true.
OF every hundred men who leave the
Hills disguised, 90 belong TO the follow
ing classes:
l. Too lazy to work for a living.
2. A trife too honest to steal a
living.
3. Lost all their money at three
! card monte or some such game the first
night in Deadwood, and left the next
day.
4. Had just enough to pay fare to
Deadwood, and of the class who would
starve to death in any country, il they
depended upon their own efforts en-
tirely.
THE LEADER does not look backward
and regret its curse. We look for
ward, and urge the settlement and de-
velopment of the Big Horn country
and the vast region beyond and around
it. We advise men who can and will
work to so there and begin the work.
There is yet room for thousands in the
Black Hills, and there is room and
wealth for hundreds of thousands i'll

Dr.. W. B. Hardy. q returned Black

the following story:
Everything is extremely dull in the
Black Hills, especially for the laborlng
classes. In the Hills there are FROM
l5,oOO to 10000 men, and not one In
twenty has anything to do. There is
no work for them aud they have to beg
or starve. Hundreds are begging to
work for a scant meal. The. govern
ment, in the end, must provide for
these men, or there will be the worst
Kind OF a bread riot. The places mines
are pretty nearly exhausted, and are

about two miles in width and over six
miles long, and is all taken up. The
owners Of claims ask all the way from
So to 81, 900 ,000. My advice is-steer
clear of the Black Hills, unless, you
have a good capital, not less than So
600, to work on"
DIR. Hardy has some valuable claims
and he visits the east in relation to the
same.
The closing paragraph tells the story.
The DR.. Is afraid that he won't get
back in time to secure other valuable
claims'' and thinks this very thin story
will stop the rush to the Hills, whereas,
if he gave a favorable, truthful account,
he believes too many would go for his

The Denver Tribune says:

Inc Denver tribune says:
Two Thousand Sioux crossed the
Atchison. Topeka and Santa Fe rail-
road at Cimarron yesterday, going to
their new reservation III the Indian
territory.
We do not doubt that the Tribune
tried to tell the truth, but the effort
was Il complete failure. In the first
place there isn't a Sioux within a
thousand miles of Cimarron, which, by
the-way, is in New Mexico, and several
hundred miles distant from the nearest
point on the A. T. & S. F. r. r..
Besides this there is no Sioux reserva-
ton in the Indian Territory, non of
this tribe are going there to live, and
if they were they wouldn't go away
around Cimarron to get there.

The Cheyenne route to the Big Horn
country is the best one. Upon it there
is abundance of wood, water and grass,
and it is the only route which is thor
oughly protected by the military. Be-
sides, this city is the only place at
which good outfits can be purchased.
Wagons, horses, tents, provisions, min
ing tools and cooking utensils are cheap
here, and all who intend visiting the
Big Horn should so by the Cheyenne
route,
