AMERICA is certainly not less interest
ed than the rest of the world in the re-
port that the supply of camphor threat
ems to fall considerably below the de-
mand within a short time. In the prov
ince of Tosa, Japan, which i'll the past
has furnished a considerable proportion
of the European supply, the manufac-
trrers are now reduced, according to re-
port, to boiling the roots of trees whose
stalks and branches have already disap-
peared. The London Globe, from which
The above statements are taken, does not

the variety of camphor is obtained upon

A young sport Just TO show his defiance

A game warden, accompanied by about
twenty young men, went outand watched
him. He asked of the warden: ''Isn't
it against the law to catch trout this sea-
son - eyes, replied the warden.
Then why don't you arrest me?" CAR
rest You! Why | don't see any occasion

to see that his best hold was to take in
his line aud take that crowd to town and

Round for Europe. V
Mr.. Leopold Kabis is about to start
for Europe IN a mission which has for
its object the best interests of our
territory. Mr.. Kabis goes as an envoy
or ambassador from our territory to
Germany for the purpose of organizing
an immigration society, which Will
have for its primary object the promo
ton of immigration under favorable
circumstances of Germans to the
territory Of Wyoming.
Mr.. Kabis is well known to the peo-
pie of our territory. He has since his
residence in our midst become one of
the first citizens of our territory, and
has held prominent positions here. Mr..
Kabis has twice been the candidate of
one of the great political parties of this
county for the Office of county clerk,
and was for the period Of two years
county clerk of Laramie county, one of
the highest Offices in the gift of our
people. He was also at one time a
member of the city council of Cheyenne,
and was city clerk of our city for sew
eral years. He was also city assessor,
and a notary public for about twelve
years, and in addition to this, we might
add that Mr.. Kabis has many times
been a delegate to the territorial,
county and city conventions, and has
generally figured to a considerable ex-
tent as a leading member Of one Of the
great political parties of this county.
In every official capacity in which Mr..
Kabis has served, he has given complete
and entire satisfaction to the people.
and we predict that such will be the
case in the future. In fact, his con
duct and career among us has been
such as not only to reflect credit upon
himself but also upon the "Fatherland''
from where he originally came.
He goes for the purpose of inviting
and inducing immigration to this coun-
try, and we hope his mission willie be a
success, as Mr.. Kabis is a worthy cit
izen. The governor, delegate in con
gress, delegate-elect and also many
prominent citizens have united in re-
commencing him to the best considera-
ton of the people among whom he is to
go, and we hope that as he deserves, he
will be received, and that consideration
extended which, from our knowledge OF
him a a good, reliable and faithful
citizen and man, we, as the representa-
tives of the people of Wyoming terri
tory, a constituent portion of the
Uuited States, know and feel that he is
entitled to and fully deserves.

mAYoR BREsNAuEx.

This familiar caption will likely be-
come more familiar during the APP
preaching municipal year, unless we
misread the writing on the political
wall. Mr.. Bresnahen is the candidate
of the people against Mr.. Carey, the
candidate of a ring that has only toe
long held sway hereaboDts.
We say Mr.. Bresnahen is the candi-
date of the people, and we employ the
term advisedly. Mr.. Bresnahen did
not seek the nomination that was SC
worthily conferred upon him last even
ing. On the contrary he repeatedly de-
clared that he did not wish to become
a candidate. Finally, the desire to have
him become such grew SO strong and
popular, that many prominent republi-
cans called upon him and insisted upon
him allowing his name to go before the
people. Representatives of all classes
Of business interests besought him to
the same effect. Under such circum-
stances what could a man of public
spirit and worth do but yield to the
pressure. that came like an avalanche
upon him? The voice of public opinion
became to strong to resist; it amounted
to a demand upon Mr.. Bresnahen that
he again contribute his valuable SER
vices to the city, in its chief magis-
tracy.
Mr.. Bresnahen has had rich expert
ence in city affairs, both as a member
of council and as mayor, as all of our
citizens + well aware. We simply
wish to point out that his experience
will inure vastly to the benefit of the
city, n fact that will be readily seen and
appreciated by all. 1t is one of the
stronger points in favor of his election
on Tuesday next.
The many and good qualities of Mr..
Bresnahen for the position of mayor
have been mentioned by the LEADER
heretofore and are so generally recog-
nized by the community that it seems
almost unnecessary to repeat them
here. But we will not pass them by
unnoticed. When a man has demon
strated the possession of excellent quail
tiles of mind and heart, and splendid
capacity in a public position, he de-
serves the commentator of his fellow
citizens.
MI. Dresnahen has 4 very clear and
well balanced mind; he is broad in his
views, and possesses the happy faculty
of grasping things properly and deter
mining upon a proper course that proves
satisfactory to all %contending elements.
He is ever just, and when once con-
vinced Of the right, he has the moral
backbone and the firmness necessary to
stand by his action. 1t is these things
that have made him popular. The peo-
pie have been well pleased with his pub
lie services and hence they insist that
he shall again be placed in harness and
set to work in the position of mayor for
the benefit of the whole people of the
city. With that object in view let
those who approve the worth of Mr..
Bresnahen unite and give him their
support now and on Tuesday next, and
he will be elected by a good majority.
