CHEYENNE, Wyo., Dec. 81, lSSS.-To
the Honorable the Board Of County Com
missioners Of Laramie County, Wyoming
Territory We respectfully
submit for the year ending December 81,

Tricks of Chinese Traders.

A book might be written upon the
palpable frauds and tricks, of which the
Chinese trader is guilty. With a goose
quill he blows up his mutton so that the
veriest old scrag of n carcass looks fat
and tempting. He tucks cobble stones
into his heads of cabbage, which he sells
by the pound. He sells dwarf orange
trees loaded down with fruit, nine-tenths

that by the application OF acid alone can
the fraud be detected. The smalluess Of

THEY NEED A RAILROAD.

A. ]. McCray, chairman of the board
of county commissioners of johnson
county, is in town. MIR. McCray, like all
other citizens OF johnson county, is deep
ly interested in the extension of the
Cheyenne & Northern, the right of way
for which has been secured as far as Pow
der river. about sixty miles this side of
Buffalo, though the surveys have been
made right into the town. johnson
county, which has been aptly named the
Bouquet county, is as a whole probably
the richest agricultural section of the
territory. During last veal about 49,
O00, 900 pounds OF cereals were raised
over and above the market demand for
the same, and about !, 200. 900 bushels of
potatoes more than could be used, There
is now sufficient land under cultivation to
double this supply, if it were only posi-
bic to secure a market for the product.
The people living in johnson county
cannot begin TO use the agricultural pro-
duct, and they are naturally more than
anxious to secure an outside market which
the coming of a railroad would afford.
They have an excellent coal supply, plenty
of lumber, oil and live stock.
The extension of the Cheyenne &
Northern into Buffalo would be a great
thing for johnson county. 1t would be a
great thing for the railroad too, Tor it
would tap an exceedingly rich and pro-
ductivc section. The people of Cheyenne
should feel a keen interest in this project
for railroad communication with johnson
would be of unqualified advantage to this
town also. 1t is a matter which the
board of trade should earnestly take into
consideration and lead all its individual
and collective aid toward furthering the
project.
There is no longer any doubt that the
Cheyenne & Northern will be greatly ex-
tended the coming summer. We sin
cerely hope the railway officials will seri-
ously consider the claims OF Johnson
county, for if the road is extended there
the company will possess another exceed
ingly valuable feeder.

Mrs. Mary Jane, wife of Thomas
Moore, chief packer at Camp Carlin, died

husband Mrs. Moore, whose maiden

1881, and has since resided at Camp Car
lin. She was a woman of many cstim-
able qualities, who was greatly believed
by a large circle OF friends. She leaves a
little daugter 5 years cid. The funeral
will take place at . O'Clock to morrow
afternoon from the Episcopal church.

The uncovered seats on the shady side,
especially those affected by the youth and
students of the town, were closely packed
with heads IN ranks like the seeds In an
ear of maize. The less crowded places on
the sunny side were occupied by busy
knot of press reporters, by country folks,
by n hundre or more of Andalusians, In

of the toiero of hard worked artisans seek

The distinguished society of metaderos,
butchers, leather dressers, tanners, the
myrmidons of the slaughter house and
purveyors of the fodder, seethed like a
boiling pot, and the hubbub, with the fit
full ringing Of a bell, sounded like the
spasmodic progress Of q neighing and
kicking horse.
The detestable medley of slang and
dialects rose up like the kissing of some
coarse and m~alodorous fry as it SINNERS
over the fire. The chula muttered a
coarse oath as she i~nsolently forced her
way through the crowd, diffusing a mixed
perfume of musk and garlic; and the
miserable lout whose natural destiny 1t
was to clean tripe and bladders, being in
capacitated by nature for any more worthy
function in life, made n speaking trumpet
