The LEADER correspondents regarding
the very prosperous outlook for the new
town near Fort Fetterman. He thinks
the town of Silver Cliff, near Lusk P. O.,
on Runningwater, offers far superior in
ducements to new settlers, owing to the
fact that its surroundings are much better;
the new townsite is beautifully located in
a fine valley; the land in the vicinity is
first class and the climate far more desira.
bic Than that near Fort Fetterman.
Tsang Hoy, Interpreter for the Chinese
consulate, New York, passed through the
city Sunday. He is en- route for China,

was the Interpreter during the Rcck
Springs investigation and is known to
many OF our citizens. Acting Governor
Morgan and United States Attorney
Campbell met Tsang Hoy at the depot
and were fellow passengers with him as
far as Evanston. Though the meeting
was accidental it was peculiarly fortu-
nate, as MessIs, Morgan and Campbell
go on the Chinese claim business, in re-
gard to which Tsang Hoy will be able to
furnish much valuable and desired inlor
nation. The Chinese official will be
strongly pressed to lay over at Evanston
a few days to assist in the investigation.
