and gave general satisfaction. Their
band and orchestra is unusually good.
Some of the selections played from
"Martha" were excellently rendered
and all the music guod. The per.
formauce was variety of songs,
dances, farces and music-just the
kind of program to please the gen.
eral public. This company will get
full house the next time it comes.
Paus lie Petre, in his Dutch songs and
funny sayings, is good show alone.

Pearce Bros.

The Pearce Bros, besides being
largely engaged in the hardware busi>
ness, have recently established an ele>
giant Drug Store at the old Bryant,
Jackson, GCo's. stand, just one door
above the post-office. They have for
the last two seasons been heavily en-
gagged in the sale of threshers and all
kinds of farming implements, and sold
last year more goods in their line
than any house in West Tennessee.
They are in prosperous business and
are making money. Besides all this,
they are honest, intelligent business
men, and know just when and how to
buy. They are determined to build
up first class drug store, and their
success in the business in which they
have been heretofore engaged is q
guarantee that they will succeed. Be
ing young and active men, they viii
spare no pains to accommodate the
trade in their line. DR.. A. g.. Pearce
an old and experienced druggist, viii
have charge of the prescription de
partment.

Dave Taylor says he has number
OF able bodied men to hire. Call ON
him if you Deed hand.
We hear that there are several
cases of pneumonia in town. We
believe. though, they are yielding to
treatment.
The Oakes Bros. hand made good
music on our streets Thursday, and
was followed by the usual crowd of
small pickaunes.
Some thoughtless or .ungallant per
son annoyed people at the concert
Thursday night by smoking in the au'
cience. We hope it will not again
occur.
There is talk of connecting jack
son with the telephone system OF
Nashville. We hope they will give
Milan an opportunity to ''catch on.
Let us have it.
Company O." the loafer's club, is
assuming large proportions. There are
now about forty members. On sun

The l.. IL N. Company have made
reduction of about twenty-five per
cent. in freight rates Oh fruit and veg

line during the incoming season. This
is move in the right direction, and
will result in good to the company
and the producers.
Some of our farmer friends want
the present road law repealed, so that
they will not have to pay aroad tax.
We believe, though, Il majority of
the voters would be satisfied to tet it
remain as it is. They say large land
owners use the roads.most, and ought
to pay more for their use.

The Cheyenne daily leader. [volume] (Cheyenne, Wyo.) 1870-1884, 1883-12-22

For the past year or more u
contemporary around the corner
has let slip no opportunity TO indulge
in petty filings and slurs upon this pa
per and its management. No occasion
has been too trivial for II to seize upon
to pursue its peculiar tactics. We have
borne these attacks in silence, belieV-
ing that in journalism, as in private
life, dignity and self-respect Will COM
mand the support of the people.
Some time since THE LEADER pub
lished an interview with General Han
cock which has been widely copied and
proved Of much interest to the public.
The Sun, angered and envIous at being
eclipsed, has produced several indirect
slurs and i%nsinuations in regard to the
matter, which a usual, were allowed
to pass by in silence. In it's yester-
days issue, however, 1t out
boldly and p%ronounces the interview
bogus, doubtless relying, as usual, upon
our forbearance to let the matter pass
without comment. We are not dis.
posed to do this in the present instance.
THE LEADER has obtained a reputa-
ton for truth and reliability which will
not easily be shaken by any i~rreSpon-
sible statements. In justice to our
selves, however, and to the gentleman
most interested personally, we publish
elsewhere a statement from him, backed
by the testimony Of several well known
and reliable citizens. which must for
ever set the matter in question at rest
aud establish the falslty OF the Sun.
That paper can continue its slurs and
inuendoes and welcome, but 1t must
not question III truth.

AN Illinois farmer writes TO a scien-
ti6c paper: This summer, when my
corn wa two feet high, the lightning
struck 1t, killing a patch about 100
feet square in extent. 1t seemed to
have killed the ground as neither weed
nor spear OF grass has grown on it
since. The ground looks dead, and l
believe It's. Occasionally these spots
are met with all owe the prairies. The
people accoun for them as buffalo
tramps, where buffaloes c~ongregated
in ny time and tramped until they kill
cd the soil, but from the above occur
renee, I account for them as having
been struck by lightning

A LOCAL enthusiast expresses the
opinion that the ocean could be reduc-
cd to the placidity of a country frog
pond in the course of a few years If
every vessel that puts out from shore
would empty a few barrels of oil on

than the bridge someone will offer to
build some day.
