Our friends Ill the western part OF
the Territory are interested in a tele-
gram from Washington, published in
to-day's issue, announcing the reap
pointment of Judge E. A. Thomas as
judge of the third judicial District of
Wyoming, notwithstanding the bitter
opposition from certain quarters,
which seems to have had but little eff
feet ia Washington, however. The presi-
dent has bestowed this additional honor
upon a faithful public officer, who is
one of Wyoming's bona-fide citizens,
having located here permanently, with
his family, four years ago. Judge
Thomas has the hearty support and res
pect of his fellow-citizens in Uinta and
Sweetwater counties, with whom he has
been closely connected for several
years; they will rejoice in his reap
pointment to the Office the duties of
which he has performed so acceptably
for the past four years.
A well.known disciple of Blackstone
recently employed two gamins to clean
out his office, on 18th street. When the
job was done the lawyer essayed to pay
the young contractors the stipulated
sum of fifty cents each for their labors.
He didn't happen to have two half dol
lars, so he handed out the older of the
two boys a dollar bill and told him to
share it with his partner. This the
senior member of the firm did by de-
liberately tearing the bill in two, saying
at the same time, Here's your half,
Billy, and here's mine. Next time we
meet We'll jine pieces and have a bust.
That'n keep us from spendin' it afore-
hand, l reckon" Fact.
A new song written in tribute to the
memory of P. P. Bliss, is entitled "He
Holds the Fort in Heaven" 1t may
be all right; but a very interesting book
translated from the Greek, which we
frequently read, assures us that a per-
son bearing an entirely different name
holds the Fort in Heaven-and we don't
believe he has been superseded.

Reds VINO Claim They Were
Deceived by Spotted Tail.

DEADwooD, April Is.
1t is reported that one hundred of
Crazy Horses band Of Indians have
taken the field again. They passed
near Spearfsh, yesterday, ON their way
west, well mounted, and in wal paint.
The cause Of this renegade move
ment is supposed to be the deception
practiced by Spotted Tail in represent
ing that only the arms taken by them
in the Custer fight would be demanded
of them upon their surrender at Red
Cloud, when in reality the government
demands of them all their arms and
ponies.
Preparations for a vigorous campaign
against the unrepentant hostiles of the
north are being made with vigor. Gen.
Crooks pack train has been dispatched
to the front from Fort Russell, a long
wagon train now camped lea there
will pull out in a few days for Fort
Laramie, and Gen. Mackenzie, of the
gallant Fourth Cavalry, is under orders
to take the field Immediately.

Last week we got hold Of an item
which condemned the practice OF
lawyers sitting as referees in cases
where lawyers fees were to be de.
termined upon. The item pleased
US, and we published it. In doing
so we made some introductory re-
markp, which we find needs reYis-
ion. We intended to condemn
shysters in the profession, and went
go far as TO say, that "lawyers, as a
class, are regular set of vnltures,"
and made other expressions which
did the good men of the profession,
(and there are as many in that as any
other busisess, in proportion to the
number engaged.) great injustice.
The article was written in a hurry,
and was neither revised nor the
proof read by US. 1t was only our
intention to condemn the pettifog-
gers, leeches and shysters of the
profession. 1t was farthest from our
intention to reflect on the honesty
and fair dealing of all true sttor-
neys. II any so construed our re-
marks, which we confess would bear
such construction, we want them to
understand the injustice done them
was entirely unintentional.

Proceedings looking to the recoy-

tends from Vine to Green streets.
In addition TO the large claim in
Philadelphia there is a block of
houses on Third street, in New
York. The heirs also lay claim to
the entire town of Beckville, Berks
county, Pa, about 40 miles from
Philadelphia, and considerable part

The tenor of all the reports is high

growing districts the prospect is IN
usually good; better than has been
known for years. Many call it the
best ever known. There was but
little, if any, winter killing. Prep
arations are making everywhere for
the planting of an uncommonly
large crop of corn. The recent
heavy rains have interfered come
what with planting, however. There
does not seem to be as general dis
position to SOW oats as might have
been imagined, and the average will
be smaller than usual. The mead
ows everywhere look well, aud the
hay prospect is fine. Apples aud
small fruit will be abundant except
in a few places where hail storms
have done some damage. A partial
crop of peaches is expected in Indi-
ana, Illinois and Missouri, but the
reports from Michigan are discour-
aging.
