The Cheyenne daily leader. [volume] (Cheyenne, Wyo.) 1870-1884, 1881-12-01

A call for a meeting of citizens in
terested In the formation Of a literary,
musical and dramatic club, appears
elsewhere in this issue. It should be
read by all who believe In the organi
zstion of such an Institution. chey-
enne is really behind hand in the mat
ter Of social pleasures, and especially
In the line of literature, music and
drama. and we are glad to note the
fact that q movement is being made to
reform in these matters, The season
is usually dull, too dull for a city Of the
wealth and intelligence OF Cheyenne.
In all the surrounding cities and towns
there are organizations of the charac-
ter Of the above. and they are success
full in every particular. This will
prove the rule in Cheyenne.
As We understand the proposition, it
Is contemplated to embrace literature,
music and The drama tremendously, as
there Is abundant talent In the city in
each line. There will be essays. music,
vocal and instrumental, recitations and
debates and lectures and dramas. Ey-
cry field will receive proper attention,
and the aim will be TO SO arrange them
as to secure 4 pleasing variety at each
entertainment. Then an occasional
public entertainment could be given
and thus afford additional pleasure and
recreation in which the public could
join. In fine there are many important
features that could be incorporated in
the organization and which will sug-
gest themselves in proper time.
The invitation, 1t will be observed, is
general. 1t is extented to everybody,
ladies aad gentlemen. who feel an in
terest in literature, or music or art.
Each will be made welcome and 1t is
the earnest desire to have q large atten-
dance. No special invitation will be
extended. Cheyenne should not be be-
hind her neighbors where learning and
accomplishments are wanted. So let ev-
eryone who feels an interest attend
the meeting at Gov. Hoyt.s residence
on Friday evening.

WHAT MR.. PITNEY KNEW,

AS long as the peculations that have
recently come to light in the Treasury
Department onlp smirChed clerks they
were allowed to be made public, but the
moment they ran into the residence of
John Sherman and Billy Evarts they
were hushed up. Mr.. Pitney is young
man, and it is nothing more than natur.
al for him to have gone wrong under the
circumstances. He was ordinarily hon
est when Mr.. Hayes went into the Ex.
eCutive Mansion, but Hayes's way of do
ing things finished him. In the first
place Mr.. Pitney knew that Mr.. Hayes's
yellow barber was carried on the rolls
of the Auditors Office in the reasury
Department as messenger, instead Of
being paid by Mr.. Hayes for his services
as he fhould have been. This negro
never rendered any service in the Tres.
sury Department as a messenger, and
everyone knows il; yet he called there
regularly each month for his pay. The
only erViCe that he did render was that
Of a barber and hairdresser at the White
House. Then, again Pitney knew that
the daughter of Mrs. Hayes's nurse, who
assisted her mother in working about
the White House, was carried on the
Treasury rolls as a messenger also. He
knew also that the watchmen about the
Executive Mansion are paid out of the
city police fund instead of out of the
money appropriated for the White
House, which was used for other purpo.
ses and he knew that 100000 appropri-
ated by Congress during the four years
that Hayes was in the White House, for
furniture and repairs, was used to pay
off Mr.. Hayes's private servants and pri-
vate bills. Mr.. Pitney knew, too, tn It
though the money wassll spent down to
the last cent, not one piece Of furniture
was ever purchased. He knew Of other
crooked things there which 1t would be
painful to relate. Was it any wonder,
then, that he engaged in unlawful things
and charged spittoons as silver ice pitch
ers, and got richP The man that set
him the example should come in for
some Of the blame.-HdrBord Times.

CHARLEY FOSTERS TRIALS AS A
TEMPERANCE STRADDLER.

And now we are told that some of tht
liquor men don't like Charley Foster be-
cause he is too much of temperate
man, and the extreme temperance men
don't like him because he Consorts with
the LIQUOR men. Some people are hard
to lease,-NelUark american.
Louis Faeth of Crawford county, swore
to the fact that Charley Foster paid him
$50 in 1879 with a request to treat the
bows libefally." As Charley has prom
ised to spend $4,000 to secure his re-
election, we presume most of the amount
will 90 into the hands of saloon keepers
MI, Vernon Banner.
The political temperanCeists and the
political liquor men are now red hot in
their determination to defeat Governor
Foster and the Republican State ticket,
Ohio State Journal.
If that is 80, Governor Foster is gone
coon, and he had just as we'll beimproV'
ing the shining hours with German
Grammar 80 as to be ready for the Ber'
lin mission. But you see there is some
confusion about this thing up this way.
We don't know whether the Republican
party means temperance or anti'temI err
anCe. 1t announces that it is in favor of
having patch put on the Constitution
away long in 1883 or 1884, but whether
after that is done it intends to do as the
"temperanCests" demand, or as the
liquor men demand, is in dispute. The
German Republican organ up here, says
the temperanceists are to be fired out of
the party. Itssys the "cold water bri-
gade" has got to go, and "the whole tenn.
pera ice and Sunday legislation will be
set aside into the lumber ROOM" At the
same time, there are some Republican
papers that assert that the purpose of the
Republican party is to shut up the sa'
looms and cleanse the world from all the
evils of intemperanCe. This thing is all
mixed up, you see, and we can't get the
hang of it at all. What we want to
know is, who are to be bounced, the
liquor men or the "temperanCeists. -
Cleveland Plain Dealer.
Charley Foster tells the temperance
lists" that he never looks upon wine
when it gives its color in the cup, but
when he meets on the sly one of the red
blooded boys with generous stomach,
he stows away gill of mellow bourbon
with the grace OF stage dryer, and the
wink that follows would make circus
clown envious. The Governor has al
ways called this his great dual act, but
with all his straddling adroitness and
crafty hocus.poCus, it is evident that he
will have irving time in his canvass
this fall.-NeWark Advocate.

REPUBLICAN SPLIT IN CINCIN'
MATT.


A Big Rumpus in the Republican Camp, which
Threatens to Rip the ROySllstS and the hudslliS
Asunder Forever.
For the last few months there has
been anything but harmony among Re-
publicans in this locality. The arrogance
of the Lincoln Club gang in assuming to
represent all the brains, character and
respectability in the Republican party in
this CITY has aroused the ire and envy OF
the hewers of wood and the drawers Of
water among the Republicans. There
are other serious causes for the quarrel,
that has been going on between the outs
and ins, but the Republican managers
have been very successful in keeping it
quiet But it has finally leaked out,
through the boldness Of General Tom
Young, who has sworn to down the kid
glove gang if he pulls down the Republi-
can temple and covers himself up with
the ruins. This is the story:
Last fall George K. Mach, Attorney
General of Ohio, and Chairman OF the
Republican Campaign Committee was
sent to Cincinnati by Charley Foster,
iust before the October election, with
$1,000 which was to be used to buy the
election in this county, and this money
was to be used in connection with other
large sums that were sent here. Instead
of going to the County Campaign Com
mittee here, George listened to the &C.
ductive voices of the Lincoln Club Ring,
who represented that it would never do
TO give the money to tire Hamilton
County Executive Committee, as there
were too many hummer and dead beats
in the Committee who would pocket the
money. Nash, being green young man,
listened to the Royalists, and after CIV
ING 81. 900 to Ben Butterworth and 81 ,OOO
TO Tom Young, gave S., 600 to Willie Cap
heller to distribute. Cappeller was
member, and Chai'ma of the Repuon'
can State Central Committee. Cappeller
was also a candidate for County Auditor,
and when Nash left William took the
S. 900 and began distributing it among
bis friends and strikers, permitting them
to think that it came from his owu pock'
ct, and thus setting them to work for
Cappeller instead of the ticket, This &C.
counts f1r Cappeller's large vote and ap-
parent popularity. Some time after the
election the Mudsills found out where
and how this money went and why they
were not trusted with it, and they began
to raise the very devil. Governor Fos'
ter came here once during the winter to
reconcile the factions, but failed. It is
now apparent why Governor Tom
Young ridiCuled Foster at the April con-
ferenCes of Republicans IN Columbus
Governor Foster is expected here soon
again on the hopeless mission of trying
to patch things up, when further devel'
opments are promised.-Enquirer.

LINCOLN's ASSASSINATION.
JefT. Davis on the Death of the Martyr PreSl'
dent.

|
We arrived at Charlotte on April Is
1865, and there received at the momen
of dismounting, a telegram from Genera
Breckenridge announcing, on infor matiol
received from General Sherman, tina
President Lincoln had been assassinated
An influential citizen Of the town, who
had come to welcome me, was standing
near me, and, after remarking to him in
a low voice that 1 had received sad intel
ligence, I handed the telegram to him
Some troopers enCamped in the vicinity
had collected to zee me; they called tc
the gentleman who had the dispatch in
his hand to read it, no doubt supposing
it to be army news. He complied with
their request, and few, only taking in
the fact but not appreCiating the evil ii
portended, Cheered as WaS natural at news
of the fall of one they considered their
most powerful foe. The man who in
vented the story of my having read the
dispatch with exultation had free scope
for his imagination, as he was not pres
ent and had no chance to know whereof
he bore witness, even if there had been
any foundation of truth for his fiction.
For an en- gmy so relentless in the war
for our subjugation we could not be exa
pected to mourn, yet in view OF its polit-
ical consequences it could not be regard
ed otherwise than as a great misfortune
to the South. He had power over the
Northern people and was without per-
sonal malignity toward the people of the
South. His successor was without power
in the North and the embodiment Of ma
lignity toward the Southern people, per-
haps the more so because he had be-
trayed and deserted them in the hour of
their need.
General Sherman, in his Memoirs (vol.
ume ii. page 349), referring to a CONVEX.
sation between himself and General
Johnston at their first meeting, writes {:

he or General Lee, or the officers of the
Confederate army, could possibly be pri'
Wy to acts of assassination, but l would
not lay as much for Jeff Davis, George
Saunders and men of his stripe"
On this l have but two remarks to
make: FIRST, that I think there were
few officers in the Confederate army
who would have permitted such Sian
derous imputation to be made by pub.

bia, made false charge against General
Wade Hampton, and, having left it to
circulate freely for ten years, then in his
published memoirs makes this disgrace
full admission:

al Wade Hampton, and confess I did so

WHAT CHAUNCEY NJ. DEPEW
REPRESENTS.

Mr., Depew's availability arises solely
from the fact that he is Vanderbilts
chief railroad attorney and lobbyist at
Albany. The force behind Depew is the
monopoly interest, which demands and
is now striving for complete political
control of the National Government.
The demands Of this oligarChy may be
thus summed up:
The decision of the Supreme Court of
the United States, in the Granger cases,
which affirmed the right of the people,
through .their Legislatures, to control
corporations, was one of the most i'm.
portant declarations of public rights
since the Declaration of Independence,
and indications have since been frequent
that the monopolies have decided pro.
gramme to:
l. Elect President in their interest.
q ReConstitute the Supreme Court
and reverse the Granger decisions.
8. Pack the Senate Of the United
States.
This would give them control of the
executive, judicial, and legislative de.
partments Of the Government and the
production and commerce Of 100000
people would be at the mercy of afew

THE HEAT YIELDED BY THE SUN


Since there is every reason to believe
the suns radiation is equal in all direC
tions, it follows that, if the sun were sur
rounded by great shell of ice, one inch
thick, and 1S6,0OO,0O0 miles in diameter
it's rays would just melt the whole in
the same time.
II, now, we suppose this shell to shrink
in dianlater, retaining, however, the
same quantity of ice by increasing its
thickness, it would still be melted in the
same time. Let the shrinkage continue
until the inner surface touches the pho.
tosphere, and it would constitute an en-.
velope more than mile in thickness,
through which the solar fire would still
thaw out its way in the same two hours
and thirteen minutes; at the rate, accord
ing to HersChels determinations, of more
than forty feet a minute. Herschel con-
tinues that, if this ice were formed into
a rod As 8 miles in diameter, and darted
toward the sun with the velocity oflight,
It's advanCin point would be melted off
as fast as it approached, If by any means
the whole of the solar rays could be con-
Centrated upon it. Or, to put it differ.
emily, If we could build up solid col.
umn oil ice from the earth to the sun
two miles and quarter in diameter, al
spanning the inConCeivable abyss of
ninety'three millions of miles, and if,
then, the sun should concentrate all his
power upon it, it would dissolve and
melt, not in an hour or a minute, but in
a single secord; one swing of the pendu-
lum and it would be water, seven more,
and it would be dissipated in vapor
In formulating this last Statement we
have, however, employed, not HersChel's
figures, but those resulting from later
observations, which increase the solar
radiation about 25 per cent, giving 80 it,
and not 40 #. as the thickness of the ice
crust which the sun would m 1t off of its
own surface in minute. An easy CalCu.
lation shows that to produce this amount
of heat by combustion, would require
the hourly burning of layer of anLhra,
cite coal about 16 feet-fve metres thick
over the entire surface of the sun
four-ffths Of ton per hour on each
square foot of surfaCe-at least eight
times as much as the consumption of the
most powerful blast furnace known to
art, 1t is equivalent to a continuous ev.
olution of more than 1000 horse power
on every square foot of the suns area.
AS Sir William Thomson has hown, the
sun, if it were composed of solid coal
and produced its heat by combustion,
would burn in less than six thousand
years.-Prof C. A. Young.
