DEVOTED TO GENERALmArrERs
neutrality-suspicious. ofthe Commissioners
Productive of Few Results.

The County Commissioners were in Sos
sion at the Court House for the greater
part OF the day yesterday, for the purpose
OF attending to some little odds and ends
III the way OF routine business which had
accumulated while they have been en-
gagged as a Board of Equalization. Messrs
swan Dyer and Hoyt were present.
The usual number of bills were o fcourse
presented, and after having passed a very
close inspection were allowed, with one or
two exceptions. A long consideration of
the subject of roads then ensued. A large
portion of the forenoon's session was
thus consumed without any practical
results whatever except the al
lowance of a bill for $34 damages to
Donald Clark caused in laying out and
establishing the Iron Mountain road.
There are several road petitions pend
ing before the Board, and some of them
are causing more or less trouble and con-
%tention, notably the Pine Bluffs road.
The Happy Jack road question is
also still unsettled, but as there is no
especial hurry in regard to either of these
roads, no final action in reference to them
has yet been taken.
A matter in which the firm of Seabury
& Gardner are interested was brought to
the attention of the Board. 1t seems
they claim a rebate TO the extent of IA
mills on the dollar on $1,000, for which
they contend they were over assessed in
1888. The claim was found to be a lust
and reasonable one, and was allowed.
A long discussion ensued in regard to
what is to be done about the iron bridge
over the North Platte, near Fairbanks,
which the Commissioner propose to re-
move and put across the Laramie river.
This necessitates the transporting of it a.
distance of twenty-five miles and the
placing of it again in position. The
bridge, where it is now, is not quite
finished and there is vet an mount owing
to Bremen & Co, the contractors. for its
construction. In order that some salts
factory terms may be made with Bremen
x Go. the Clerk was authorized to cores
pond with the firm so that the bridge may
be accepted by the county for what it is
worth in its present state and the con
tractors paid accordingly.
The Board will probably hold another
session to-day.

Cheyenne for many years, but who left
here last fall and went to Texas, has re-

erary merit and which was published while

Jim Baker, of Rawlins, the well know
scout, hunter and trapper, and one of the
most daring and adventurous old timers
on the plains, was interviewed at that

that he is to accompany General Shendon

mountains this season. He stated that if
he was going it was news to him as he

that such matters troubled him but very
little; in fact they did not trouble him at
all, and if it was any consolation to any
body else to write or publish anything
about him of the character of that which
appeared in the Republican, he was glad

SCR0f fuLA

Usually develops in early life,
and is a peculiar morbid con-
dition Of the system, usually
affecting the glands; often re-
sulting in swellings, enlarged
joints, assesses, thickening
OF the lips, enlarged neck, sore
eyes. A scrofulous condition
is often hereditary, but bad
diet, too free use OF fat meats,
bad air, want Of sunshine and
nourishing food will induce
1t. Some people are troubled
with scrofulous swelling of the
glands, and with ulcers and
kernels, which may cause very
little pain; others may have in
ward scrofula, scrofula of the
lungs, scrofula Of the spleen,
scrofula Of the kidneys, and
scrofula Of the bones. BUR-

drive away any case ofscrofula
and not to appear in another
place, for their action on the
blood and bowels will carry the
disease entirely from the body.
