The Cheyenne daily leader. [volume] (Cheyenne, Wyo.) 1870-1884, 1879-09-02
MINOR MENTION

The people who have. some sense of
the fair won't vote a ticket that nomi-
mated itself.
Lieutenant W. p. Pease passed
through the city yesterday on his way
to Rock Creek.
Three sisters Of the Holy Cross,
Notre Dame, Ind, are stopping at the
Railroad house.
Russell Thorp has purchased Mr..
French's flying mar "Topsy" for five
hundred dollars.
Don't believe any rumors circulated
against the candidates on the working,
mems and peoples ticket.
Lacking in arguments, the Sun in
vents a pack of lies. See how they are
denied officially this morning.
1t will be a long time probably before
eleven men, casting thirteen votes, will
nominate six Of their number.
F. Washburn, the champion pro-
grammer Of the world, is in the city in
the interests of the coming circus.
Anything to beat Glafcke," is Mr..
Slack's cry. Truth is sacrificed on the
alter Of falsehood to accomplish this
end.
p. s. Waltham, of Massachusetts,,
the inventor of the celebrated Waltham
watch movement, is at the Inter
Ocean.
Mrs. DR.. ]. J. Crook started to her
home at Leadville, Col, yesterday. She
has been in the city for a few weeks
visiting friends.
Dave Creath, the foreman of Thor p's
livery stable, will start this morning to
a neighboring town with a number of
excellent horses.
See the special letter on second page
from West Point, detailing the cere-
monies attending the unwilling of the
Custer monument.
Good men are wanted in the legisla-
ture at this time above all others. Such
men + found on the workingmen's
and peoples ticket.
There are two polling places in Chey-
enne No. l, Recreation hall No. 2,
the brick building on Hill street for
merly occupied by MIR. Bruner.
The ticket at the head Of our col
umns is steadfast in the field. There
is no back out in the men. They are in
the field to stay until the polls close to-
morrow evening.
1t is not necessary TO deny the many
foolish assertions of the Sun. Those
that are calculated to deceive people are
denied in this mornings LEADEn by
the persons interested.
The people have Joined hands with
the workingmen in putting up a legis-
lative ticket. All classes and nation
alities are represented on their ticket.
The same thing cannot be said of the
other.
An Indian who can speak scarcely a
word of English, and who had a
through ticket to Central City, COL,
missed the c. C. tram on Sunday, and
has been holding n war dance around
the depot since.
The local agent OF the LEADER re-
ccived fifteen new subscribers yesterday,
they being old subscribers of the Sun.
Being disguised with late issues of that
paper they have wisely concluded TO
take the LEADER.
The commissioner of agriculture has
not yet learned that there were more
than 10000 acres in wheat in WYom-
ing this summer. The fertile valleys in
the north are fast settling up, but the
slow going commissioner isn't aware of
the fact.
In another column of this issue will
be found the formal resignation Of W.
G. Lykins rs stock inspector Of this
county. The members of the stock as
ISOLATION do not envy the idea of losing
Vic e NitCo VI u hlhu thdl mas bCI Ntu
them so faithfully.
The Gilliss hose company, of Camp
Carlin, made most remarkable time on
Monday morning in getting to the fire
at the Overland house. 1t had a stream
on in an incredibly short space of time,
and did excellent work. The Gilliss
boys are big on the run.
A copy of the revised statutes of the
United States is in the LEADER office.
Amy person wishing to examine it for
the purpose Of being assured of the
eligibility of postmasters to member
ship in the legislature, can call and we
will take pleasure in showing the law.
A man must be very important, and
his power feared, when an entire issue
of a daily paper is devoted to abusing
him. The Sun extra of last evening
contained nothing but personal abuse
of Major Glafcke. There is no argu-
ment in this, and the people frankly
say as much.
The Sun attempts to intimidate Maj.
Claiche and array the people against
him because of its silly twaddle about
violating the civil service rules. If
necessary, Maj. Glafcke will vindicate
himself at Washington before the pro-
per authorities. He is not obligated to
explain to the Sun.
1t is safe to deny the assertions Of
the Sun in advance. AS everything ii
