\ RISING IoUNG ALExANDRIAN-The
democrats Of Green River, Wyoming Terri
tory, have ren0minatcd rs one of their cam
didates for the House Of Delegates of that
territory aIr. Floda H. Jones, formerly of
this city, and the Sweetwater Gc.etic says
OF him
Mr.. F. II. Jones is Virsinian by birth.
He came to Wyoming in 1871 and was en-
ployed by the L. p. coal departmental Rock
springs Fora short time he also cicrked
in the store there. In the year 1875, not
being satisfied with indoor work, he went
en- the road braking, and on October Isl! '76,
he was promoted to the position Of con-
ductor. Sometime after this, he was en-
ploycd in the Green River freight office,
which position he filed so creditably that
he was made agent in the short space of
eight months. This WAS in 1877, and since
that time he has been and still is master of
the situation, being considered by the U. T..
Company as one of their most painstakirg,
careful and attentive employees. Two
years ago he was elected Ivy large majority
TO represent Swcetwater county in the
House. and by his actions he proved him
self worthy of the peoples confidence.
He is again on the ticket as candidate for
legislative honors, and we predict his elcc-
iion by an overwhelming majority

-Hr. Noilz Is Il rather striking looking
man, II years OF age. with good figure and

llcan, he hates Malone rs ONLY a wronred
man can hate another, and expressed his
sincere belief that bossism in this state was

mtnt that Malone was using tho States
money Tor election purposes, he reiterated
lis truth and said Mahone's hcnchman, Pc
ter }. CATER, had told r. ID. Becky so.
l"o days ago, and That there were witnesses
TO the conversation. He seems perfectly
SATISFIED with his canvass, but said Ma
homes agents had already appeared in his
