The omin South.

Every mail brings new evidences of
the birth and re-awskening of Southern
industries. The magical success of the
iron mines of Alabama has been one
great incentive to activity. Ten years
ago these mines could have been bought
for $50, 900; to-day they are held at as
many millions. One of the most recent
enterprises projected is a railroad from
Knoxville to Nashville. This road will
open some of the richest coal fields in
the country, will penetrate primeval
forests of walnut, ash, beech, chestnut
and oak, and will give value to a largo
grazing territory and to one of the best
tobacco-growing regions in the South.
To-day the Southern Appalachian range
is the richest untouched treasure house
in the country. It's hills hide most of
the materials that minister to mans
well-being, including even petroleum
land natural gas.-N. y. Star.

WHAT TT
Important saie--The sequel 10 be a
Mammoth Hotel.

A very important business move OF
step was taken in Cheyenne according to
a rumor which became prevalent about
noon yesterday and which on being trailed
up by a LEADER reporter, was found TO
be a reliable one and such as j~ustifies its
announcement as an accomplished fact.
The matter alluded to was nothing more
or less than the sale of the Episcopal
church property fronting on Eighteenth
street, and which extends north to the al
ley and west to Judge Fishers place near
the Charlton corner, This was not all,
for the property owned and occupied by
Judge Fisher, was sold by him for the
consideration of So. 100 and to the same
party who has, or is to purchase the prop
erty first alluded to. There was consider
able secrecy about the matter, although
before night while it did not become COM
mon talk. " it was known and commented
upon by a good many.
Tue LEADERS representative first got
an inkling into the subject from some
parties selling tickets for the coming lee
ture by DIR. Moore, and set about to git
at the true inwardncss'' of the matter.
1t was a%scertained that there had been a
meeting at the Episcopal rectory in the
forenoon, but this threw but little light
on the subject. J. X. Jeffrey was found
and interviewed, but about all that could
be learned of him WIS the fact that he
believed he had heard there was al Epis.
copal church in Cheyenne and said he
wondered who the rector was, etc. Judge
Fisher was next tackled, but about all he
could (would) tell was that some thirteen
years ago he bought the property where
he now is and paid $1,000 for it, and
wanted to know OF the reporter what he
thought il was worth now. The reporter
said it was worth SO 900, after which he
left and tried his hand at interviewing
other gentlemen who it was presumed,
knew something about il, but with no bet
ter success. They all said they knew
nothing about the matter.
Becoming Disguised with the indifferent
success thus far attained, the reporter fell
back in good order into the sage brush,
from which he emerged several hours
later with the following results. The
Episcopal property before alluded to has
been sold, or will be to-day, to n gentle

REDUCED RATES.


What appears to be a well founded
rumor was in circulation yesterday, to the
effect that the Union Pacific Railway
company eontemplates a decided reduction
in their rates for the transportation of
freight over the whole length of their line
of road very soon. OF course, this, as
before stated, is a rumor, but u LEADER
reporter yesterday set about investigating
the matter, and while nothing definite
could be ascertained yet there was suffi-
cient learned to inluce the belief that such
a step is contemplated on the part Of the
company. Should the rates be reduced
one-fourth, as one business man pre-
dicted. it will be of incalculable benefit TO
the people of Cheyenne and will affect
their material prosperity in many ways.

The officers and members OF the Con-
gregational church have taken a new
and vigorous departure in reference TO the
debt that has been hanging over hat
church since the erection of their new and
elegant edifce. This amounts to some
$40 900, and it has been a great burden
and an annoyance to the pastor and mem
bers Of that organization. "How to pay
off this obligation has been the question
which they have been asking of each other
for some time, but the question has been
answered and the problem solved in a
speedy way. Less than one week ago a
committee of active members of the
church went to work and were assisted by
other members, who went down into THEN
pockets, and the result has been that by
the middle of yesterday afternoon over
1000 OF the amount due had been raised
or pledged, and there is no doubt but the
balance will ho raised within two or three
days

Editor OF THE LEADE
DEAR Sm:-As a fight is attempted to
be made against the Office of territorial
g~eologist | desire To express my conviction
and that Of other miners in Wyoming in
regard to the matter.
The present incumbent OF the office has
TO my certain knowledge, labored constant
ly and successfully to promote the mining
industry in Wyoming. Among his labors
he has frequently visited Silver Crown,
and advisedSae miners as to the best
methods for working their prospects. He
has also made an immense number of
assays for which he either made no charge,
OF took small pay out in work. Besides
all this he has been instrumental in inter
esting capital in our prospects, and by
that means insured their development
into mines. As the work is now rightly
started there is, during the coming year,
more need of his work than ever. in fact
prospectors and miners would feel lost
without him. While he says little, and
never blows his own horn, he by hard
work accomplishes great results. IL the
legisture has any regard to the wishes and
the feelings of the miners the office will
be continued, and made still more efficient
by an increase of appropriation for its
its support, Miners consider it a hard
ship and unfair that the Office of at
torney-general is established, and the fish
commission is amply provided for. and a
territorial veterinarian is given the stock
interests, the only office devoted to the
mining interests should be opposed. The
plea that the Office of territorial gcologist
has accomplished nothing will not hold
water-it is the peer in work accomplished
for the general good Of any Office in the
territory. q. ID. HOLIDAY,
Miner in Silver Crown District.
