PRISE has great hope that Cleveland will
be elected and that with him will again
begin an era of pure government and re-
form in all the departments of our admin
istration-a democratic government, of
the people, for the people and by the peo-
pie. God speed the movement.
Believing then that our next national
administration will be democratic we
earnestly desire to impress it upon demo-
Gratis to make every effort to be in accord
with that rule. 1t is of the greatest i'm
portancc that Montana strongly evince
her sympathy at this election, and that
she will do by electing Joseph K.
Toole. With democratic nation and a
democratic territory we must have dem
ocratic county OF Gallatin and demo-
cratic precinct of Livingston. Let US be
in accord and sympathy with the thous-
ands of democratic counties and the tens
of thousands of democratic precincts that
are to elect Grover Cleveland tomorrow.
Democrats stand by your ticket.

ATTEMPTED SUICIDE.
A Mulatto Woman Fills Herself
With Laudanum
And Will Probably Succeed in Des-
troying Her Life.

A great many LEADER readers have
heard oitentimes of Laura Copeland,
whose right name, by the way, is Laura
Arnold, and some have seen the woman
on the, streets of the city. This woman
is not what would properly be called a
colored person, but is really a mulatto.
She came to Cheyenne in 1878 and has
resided here for the most of the time
since then. Laura is quite an intelligent
woman and is pretty well educated, but
like many others of her sex who profess
better things, she has fallen a long ways
from grace, She is given to the excessive
use of strong drink at times and although
she has not been in the habit of getting
beastly drunk. yet at her place
of abode, in the western portion
of the city and in that particular
locality called Chicago" she has con-
stant!y kept 4 supply of the ardent on
hand for her own private use. She has
recently been on a terrible spree of her
own, and for several days has been balanc-
ing, it would seem, on the ragged edge of
delirium tremens She has also recently
been subject to fits of dependency, but
for what particular reason no one seems to
definitely understand. Night before last
she went to u drug store in the city and
procured two ounces of laudanum, which
she stated she wanted to take in small
doses to quiet her nerves, as she expressed
it. She went home, and, without saying
anything in regard to her intentions, took
nearly all of the narcotic. In a short
time after taking it she was thrown into
violent commissions, which could not at
first be accounted for as she had not re-
vealed the fact that she had taken the
drug. DIR. j. j. Marston was sent for in
hot haste at . o'clock in the morning, and
repairing to her bedside, found her in a
dying condition as it was supposed, but
after applying the best remedies to neu-
tralize the effect of the poison she was in
a measure restored, but during all of yes
terday she was in a very critical condition,
and at the present writing there appears
to be no hope for her eventual recovery.
There are various stories told in regard to
the cause of her making this attempt to
take her wi life, but as they all more or
less descend into the lowest depths of
degradation for their solution, it is proba-
bly, unnecessary to detail them. 1t is not
altogether certain but that she took this
poison by mistake hut the chances are
it was intentional.

LOGAN HELD.
The Foothills Men Must Give Bail and
Answer in Court.

The examination of William Logan, of
Box Elder notoriety, took place at Fl.
Collins before Justice Lundy of that
place. The evidence on the part of the
prosecution was that of Miss Parkinson
and one other witness, and was to the
effect that Logan had been guilty of the
outrage charged against him and that the
facts and circumstances were substantially
as have been twice related in THE
LEADER. The outcome of the examina-
ton was that Logan was held to bail in
the sum of $500. Mr.. Jenkins and Miss
Parkinson returned from TT. Collins, and
Mr.. j. reports that the people of Fl.
Collins sympathizc with the young lady
and are of the belief that Logan is GER
tainly guilty, Logan has not succeeded
in getting bail and is now in Jail, where he
will probably have to remain until court
conyenes.

LAID AWAY TO REST.
The Funeral obscquies of Little Carrie
Sweet.

The funeral of little Carrie Sweet,
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Chas. w.
Sweet, was held at the Presbyterian
church yesterday afternoon at 3 o'clock,
Rev. +. s.. Chapman officiating. The choir
was a special one composed of Mrs. W.
w. Corlett, Mrs. R. N. Heath, Mrs. L. s.
N. Morgan and Messrs. w. A. Whit
comb and r. N. Heath. Mrs. Heath
presided at the organ. The pail bearers
were I. N. Shanks. Bert Richey, j.. II.
Jenkins and Chas. H%arnsworth, and the
remains were enclosed in a beautiful and
elegant casket, properly decorated with
floral tributes, among which was a beauti-
full immortelle anchor design.
The services were begun by the singing
of that beautiful selection
''Safe in the arms of Jesus"
A feeling and fervent prayer was then
offered by the pastor which was followed
by Passing Away" which was sung by
the choir with much effect. Rev. Mr..
Chapman then proceeded to preach a
short but singularly appropriate funeral
discourse from the text, THE Damsel is
not Dead but Sleepeth," and said sub
stantially that death is naught but a
sleep. The earthly home of this taber-
nacle' is laid away to rest but that some
thing which speaks in the expression of
the face and looks out of the eyes-the
unwasted part of this existence-this life
does not die; it lives, and will live forever,
and away out in the untrod mystic beyond
it still has a conscious and a rational
being. And again there will be a resur-
rection of this body which dies, and when
the last trump shall sound, it will rise
again a spiritual body. Mr.. Chapman re-
marks, especially when he alluded to the
mother Of the departed little one whose
illness prevented her from attending were
pathetic and eloquent. AT the conclusion
of the discourse Mrs. w. w. Corlett, as
sisted in the choruses by a portion of the
choir, sang in the sweetest strains a most
beautiful selection, of which the following
is the first verse:
Now | lay me down to sleep,
And the blue eyes dark and dim
Let their weary curtains down,
Edged with hues of golden beam.
All day long the sunlight fair
I've been watching over there
Heaven S not far-'tis Just In sight
Now they're calling me--good night
Kiss me, mother do not weep
Now l lay me Town to sleep"
The casket was then opened and the
large and sympathetic congregation view
ed the remains of the little sleeper, so
still and calm. The casket was then re-
turned to the hearse, and the funeral cor
tege, which was an unusually large one,
moved on its way to the ''voiceless city"
where s. many have been borne before.
At the grave the services were short, and
after the casket had been lowered to its
final resting place, the benediction was
pronounced, and the family and friends
returned to the city.

CONVICTED.
A Prominent Citizen Hauled Over the
Goals But Carries His Case Up.

Several days ago a complaint was made
and filed against James Ferris, charging
him under the ordinance of the city with
renting a certain house in the city, stu
ated on the corner of Bent and Twenty
first street, to a colored woman for illegal
purposes. A warrant was issued and
Ferris appeared III court where he gave
bail for his appearance and prepared to
fight the case, employing Mr.. A. c..
Campbell to defend him. Yesterday fore
noon the case was called up for trial by
Judge Lee. City Attorney Riner APP
peared in behalf of the city and
there were several witnesses in
attendance for the purpose of
giving their testimoney. The wit
nesses for the most part simply testified
as to the general reputation of the house,
which was bad. Only one disturbance
had occurred there SO far as the witnesses
could testify to. The testimony in regard
to whether Ferris was aware of the fact
that his tenant had perverted the use of
the house in question to unlawful pur-
poses was rather contradictory. Mr..
Ferris testified himself that he was not
aware of that fact until the complaint
was made by Officer Sullivan, who swore
out the warrant. The case was briefly
argued by both counsel and the court
found the defendant guilty. He was SEN
fenced to pay a fine of $50 and costs.
Later on in the day Mr.. Ferris took an
appeal to the District court.

Sergeant Edgar McGovern returned
home from his months furlough last even
ing, and will to-day resume his old place
at the head of the Cheyenne weather bu-
e in the Signal Service office. During
his absence he made the most of the first
holiday he enjoyed in five years, and yis-
tied friends and relatives throughout the
East. He comes back looking rugged and
healthy, and wearing a highly FURNISHED
plug hat that reflects the faces of passers-
by like a plate glass mirror, All his ac-
quaintances will take pleasure in welcom-
ing him home. During his absence the
affairs of the Signal Service office were
conducted by Mr.. f, j. Michau, who was
as obliglng as he was efficient and faithful
in the discharge of his duties.
