Grant had no support whatever in
the Ohio convention. Ohio is Il state
which there is no probability he could
carry if nominated. 1t is not unlikely
there are Grant men in Ohio, but their
enthusiasm seems to be repressed by
their Judgment, which is that the eX-
presidents election would be very
doubtful thing.

The snow storm in the Sierras, on
the C. p. r.. r., lasted two weeks, up
to the 2Sth, and immense quantities of
snow fell and became very solid. Many
snow slides occurred, sweeping away
mining works, many people escaping
narrowly. 1t was the most terrible
storm ever known.

The Cheyenne War.

From the Laramie Times.
The newspaper war nov going on in
Cheyenne between Mr.. Glafcke, of the
LEADER, and Slack, of the Sun, is at
trecting the attention of the public
throughout the territory. 1t is but
natural that people will take sides with
either one or the other factions, accord
ing to their views of the two men who
are conducting the papers mentioned.
While the Times has no fight of its
own just now OH its hand to dispose of,
it will publish such matters pertaining
to the present controversy in Cheyenne
as will be of general interest to the
people, The articles in the LEADER
in relation to Gov. Hoyt and Mr.. Slack
we believe to be Of such general inter
est to the people throughout the terri
tory that we have published them in
full.
We have known for a long time that
Gov. Hoyt was totally unfit to be gov
ernor of this territory, and the sooner
ehe peoIic Hnu MN ouo VIC pcotSi ~
will be for the whole territory; and as
for Slack, he never had any reputation
except for fraud and dishonesty, and he
is supported by a certain disreputable
clique composed of men who, like him
self, have no reputation to lose.
The exposures made by the LEADER
are nothing new to some of the citi-
zens in different portions of the terri
tory, yet they are new to the great mass
of the people, and we are glad that
Major Glafcke has the nerve to expose
them. Go on, major, in your good
work, and you will have the support of
the great mass of the people in all sec
tions of the territory.

Acting on the hint received, the
sheriff posted one of his deputies, L. S.
Smith, in the front entrance to the jail,
at the point marked 4. Sheriff Draper
entered the Jail from the door toward
his residence. All the prisoners were
out of their cells. 1t was dusk and they
could not well be seen. The sheriff
went to the right, and when opposite
the door of the water closet, at l, saw
a man raise his arm to strike, but the
blow fell short. The sheriff struck the
man in the face with his left hand and
pulled his revolver with his right. The
cartridge snapped, and the man pushed
by just as the sheriff shot ut him.
The ball struck n bar of the open cell
doorat3, and hit a man, whom the sher-
if had not seen before, standing there.
He cried out in pain, and instantly all
the prisoners made for their cells, some
yelling loudly, and the women fairly
bowling.
Deputy Sheriff Smith came from the
other end, and seeing that Sheriff
Draper was safe, locked all the cells.
Investigation revealed the fact that
the man who struck at the sheriff was
Boyd, and the wounded man, Will
liams, both of whom occupied the cell
at 3. Boyd had endcavored to use a
slungshot, which was found in the
closet. The sheriff and his deputy re-
monstrated with Boyd for his bad
break, and the deputy's arguments
were so forcible that he broke the little
finger on the right hand in presenting
one.
DIR. Crook was callel in and extract
ed the ball from Williams knee cap.
1t was a Al ball and made an ugly
wound.
There is no doubt that a general Jail
delivery was intended. Had Boyd and
Williams succeeded in downing the
sheriff and overcoming the deputy, all
would have fled. They were all in the
secret, for, contrary to custom, they
loitered outside their cells ready to es-
cape.
Both Boyd and Williams are horse
thieves. Boyd is charged with stealing
J.. G. Horizons animal, while Williams
is alleged to have stolen horses from
"Curley" wv. H.) Coleman.

An Attempt to Injure Secy. spatcs
by False Charges.

The San and the persons interested
have charged, both here and in WASH
ington, that Secretary Spates writes
articles for the LEADER holding up the
record of certain officials. The point
is to injure the secretary by showing
that he publicly attacks the governor
and others through the public prints,
which would, if true, mitigate against
the secretary. But Secretary Spates
does not write for the LEADER. The
following affidavit is to the point:
WHEREAS, 1t has come to my knowf-
edge that A. Worth Spates, secretary
of Wyoming territory, has been charged
with having written the, articles which
appeared in the Cheyenne DAILY LEAD
Err, having reference to Gov. j. w.
Hoyt, E. A. Slack and F. E. Warren,
and all articles touching upon their &C.
lions,
This is to certify, That the said A.
Worth Spates neither suggested, nor
tDrote, nor dictated the aforesaid articles,
but that they were conceived and writ
ten by the regular staff of the LEADER.
Furthermore, that the said A. Worth
Spates is not a writer for;the Cheyenne
DAILY LEADER.

Prof. J. G. Murphy has been re-
quested by Mr.. T. T. Buckley, presi-
dent of the Bank of the Republic, of
New York City, and n of the direc-
tors of the Penobscott and Snowdrift
consolidated mining company of New
York, to proceed to Helena, Montana,
to report upon the management aud
the property of said company, located
twenty miles from Helena. This mine
has recently been stocked at a half a
million Of dollars, and is supposed to be
very valuable, although no great re-
turns have been made to the company.
In fact it is the deficiency in the net
proceeds of this mine that has induced
the officers of this company to employ
Prof. Murphy, one of the most expert
mining engineers, to investigate and
report.

German syrup is the special prescrip.
ton of DR.. A. Boschee. a celebrated
German physician, and is acknowledged
to be one of the most fortunate discov-
cries in medicine. 1t quickly cures
Cough, Colds and all Lung troubles OF
the severest nature, removing, rs il
does, the cause of the affection and
leaving the parts in a strong and heal
thy condition. 1t is not an experiment
al medicine, but has stood the test of
years, giving satisfaction in every case,
which its rapidly increasing sale every
season confirms. Two million bottles
sold annually. Beware of medicines of
similar names, lately introduced.
Boschee's German Syrup was introduc-
ed In the United States in 1865, and is
now sold in every town and village in
the civilized world. Three doses will
relieve any ordinary cough. Price 10
cents. Sample bottle, 10 cents. daw.

Correspondence of the Leader.
TONGUE RIVER, WYo., Feb. s., 80.
We, who have seen all of Wyoming,
call this section the garden spot. Our
winter starts in with a cold snap of
about one months duration. After
that the river breaks up; o goes off,
and we have as fine working weather
as one could wish. Our spring is early,
and even now, strange as it may sound,
green grass has started. Our valleys
are the best of soil for farming; pine
timber plenty and easy to get at.
Tongue river furnishes cottonwood for
building, and scrub ash and box elder
for fire wood. Last, but not least,
comes the Big Horn mines, one days
travel from my cabin.
Notwithstanding that this is rs fine
"A stock country as can be found, what
little farming was done last year turned
out well, a dry summer notwithstand-
ing.
b. T. Smith raised a little crop of
oats us fine rs one would wish to see.
l harvested 5000 pounds of potatoes
from $50 pounds of seed. Cabbage,
beets, turnirs, watermelons, tomatoes,
cucumbers, etc, did we'll; all planted
on sod ground.
We have lots of room for families

Browns Household Panaeea

is the most effective pain destroyer i'll
the world. Will most surely quicken
the blood whether taken internally or
applied externally, and thereby more
certainly RELIEVE PAIN, whether
chronic acute, than any other pain al
l~eviator, and it is warranted double the
strength of any similar preparation.
1t cures pain in the back or bowels,
sore throat, rheumatism, toothache,
and ALL ACHES, and is THE GREAT
BELIEVER OF PAIN. "BROWN'S
PANACEA" should be in every fami-
ly. A teaspoonful of the Panacea in a
tumblerful of hot water ~[sweetened if
preferred taken at bedtime, will break
up a cold. 25 cts a bottle.
