The other alarm was sounded at about $50
and called the department to Twenty-soventh
and Chicago streets, where a barn owned by
G. f. Courtney was in flames. The alarm
was given too late TO do any good and the
structure was burned to the ground. About
$3.50 worth of hay and grain was also con-
sumed. The total damage is estimated at
$3.50 and the insurance is but $500. The cause
of the fire is unknown.

Partisan Dudes in Doubt.

Partisan handles are greatly exercised
in their minds just now as to what style
of stick they ought to adopt during the
season. They are tired of the gold
knobbed canes, the crutch canes and the
canes with ducks beaks, which were once
the rage. An energetic inventor has there
fore started a thick stick which almost
aspires to the dignity and dimensions of
a cudgel, and the pomme, or pommel, of
which is the claw of a crayfish. The
article is already in the hands of many Of
the gandens, and promises to be a fashion
able success. While the members of
metropolitan "masherdom'' are thus busy
about the mice conduct of a crayfish
cane their female counterparts are puzzled
as to the style of walking which they
h adopt for the season. AS furs are
worn at this period of the year the car
riage prescribed is that of short steps
with the ''waggle" of the little bird
known a the -bergeronnette, or water
wagtail. This ''waggle'' should, of
course, be a graceful as possible, the
undulating sweep of the hips being well
accenJuated. The Parisienne looks, as a
rule, adorable in furs, but she is some
times tempted to put in too much "wae-

fessors of calisthenics in converts, board

called the art of 'waggling. Paris Cor.

The other Side of the Gold.

L, for one, have always innocently up
posed that gold table utensils were what
they pretended to be, all gold; but lately
an expert and a dealer in old silver has
informed me to the contrary. Even Vic
toria's royal gold plate is no better than
it should be. For such a thing as "solid
gold" is totally unknown. 1 must say
this knowledge is a vast relief to me.
Burglars may labor under q like delusion,
and fancy any piece of gold plate is better
worth burgling than the best silverware
in the market. But we lave all made a
mistake. The finest gold service in ex-
lstence is but silver, washed with that
precious metal. 1t seems no less p person
h Mr.. James Keene, when he returned
from England with the famous Ascot cup,
won by his horse Foxhall, also believed in
the solid business, for the trophy was
valued at $4,000 by the custom house Off
Gals. Mr.. Keene paid the duties on those
figures and his cup was deposited in a
place of safety. Shortly after came the
financial crash in Mr.. Keene's fortunes,
and he found it necessary to raise money
on the Ascot cup. The first jeweler and
expert in New York was dispatched to the
bank to examine, or rather to assay, its
intrinsic value. He found, to his own en-
tire satisfaction, that the 1000 guinea cup
was worth precisely 5000, including
metals and the price of artistic workman

"What field is there in literary work

eyes, people who want to make a repu-
tation-who want to rise in the profess
sion; it is fast becoming a profession in it

-.tNNelly the most constant demand is for
fiction. A beginner always has the oppor-
tunity for practice in the field of short
stories, and out of this he can graduate
into a serial writer, a novelist, publishing
either in the magazines or in book form,
or both. In this way the writer of stories
has an advantage over the dramatic
writer, in that he can las Mr.. Brander
Matthews says make his brief essays and
try them on the editors and on the public,
whereas in the art in this country
he does not get the chance that he does
abroad, where they take one act plays
from beginners. That is one reason why
there are so many good writer's of fiction
coming up all over the country and why
there are so few dramatists, because the
former have a chance to practice-to try
their experiments upon the public-and
the latter have small chance"
"Has not that been the case with almost
all of our fiction writers of the present
generation; they began with short stories
and then blossomed out as the rose?'

to make any insinuation against Judge
Bergman, for we believe he has managed
his office routine honestly. but it is time
that a change was made, Just the same.
Our law, unlike in some states, is very
lax, and requires no examination of the
books to be made. Elsewhere examina-
tons are made once In every six months,
and no candidate can hold the office for
more than two consecutive terms. In
Wyoming a county treasurer may hold
his Office until he shuffies off this mortal
coil or Gabriel blows his trumpet.
We oppose Bergman because he is a
political boss because he is not content
with looking after his own office but must
stick his nose into every public business
in the effort 20 run the affairs Of the en-
tire city, school, county and territorial
government because he has grown care
less in his methods and failed to do his
duty for eight years in the matter of de-
linquent taxes; because he closes up his
Office whenever the spirit moves him to
go to Chicago to a convention or down town
to set up a political Job and because he was
the strongest advocate of the taxation of
mortgages which gave his Sancho Panzo,
Joe Fisher, a chance to readily make a
few hundred extra dollars in commissions.
For fourteen years Judge Bergman has
hung like a leech on the necks Of the tax
payers. The question of whether or not
he shall be deposed is now before the peo-
pie. At shutdown tomorrow evening he
may be politically paralyzed. The task
rests manly with the earnest, thoughtful
taxpaying people. If they do their whole
duty no politician will ever have received
a more thorough and enthusiastic burial.

Judge Gary, the judicial jester, has been
making his friends laugh with a new
joke. Have you heard of the latest alb
stract scheme? OF curse you nave not,
and your curiosity concerning it is stimu-
lated to an extraordinary degree by the
solemn, almost mysterious air of the
judge, who asks you the question. "Well,"
he says, after you nave pressed him to
tell you, 1--WE are getting up a company
that will prepare a complete set of books
from the records of the courts, and be
ready to furnish abstracts of titles to men
and Say a woman wants to
marry a man whom she has not known
very long, n she wants to make sure
that he has no wife living in Wisconsin
or Indiana, she comes to our company
and gets al abstract of title on him that
will show her just how many times he
has been married, how many times di-
vorced, how many wives he has had die,
what they died of, and all about his
matrimonial career, If he has had one.
The abstracts, of course, will be quite
as useful to the man who wants to
know what sort of a title he can get to
the woman he is about to marry, and in
every way the scheme will be a good one.
There is a great and an increasing demand
for just such an enterprise right here in
Chicago. Chicago Herald.

THE TERRITORIAL ISSUE.

The appended article from the Saratoga
LVre SO clearly and iorcibly presents the
issue between the two candidates for dele,
gate in congress that we reprint 1t in the
belief that it is an expression of a majority
of the people of this territory: The bal
lot is the peoples servant. People of
Wyoming, of Carbon county, of the
Platte valley, see that this servant serves
you well at the approaching election.
Issues of the most vital public impor-
lance, both territorial and local, are to be
decided at the polls on Tuesday, the 9th
of this month. The leading territorial
issue is the election of a delegate to con.
gress. For this great position, so replete
with interest and anxiety for the Wyoming
public, the contestants are Joseph NJ.
Carey and Caleb Perry Organ.
"A public issue has never been more
clearly defined than in the candidacy of
these two men. Mr.. Organ is the man of
the people-the champion and defender
of the poor and the many. Mr.. Carey is
the man of corporations-the exponent
and apologist of the rich and the few.
Mr.. Organ is a candidate in virtue of the
respect and confidence of his fellow
men. Mr.. Carey's candidacy is that OF
the professional Office seeker. Mr..
Organ represents a spontaneous, IN
biased and unfettered expression of
opinion. Mr.. Carey represents the pur-
chasing power of politics. MI. Organ,
careless of personal ambition, would
rather see Wyoming fostered as a terri
tory than wrecked as a state. Mr.. Carey,
aspiring to a United States senatorship,
would have Wyoming admitted at once
to the Union with all the %ruinous burden
Of taxation carried and entailed by such
admission. Mr., Organ came to Wyo-
ming when her PLAINS were a desert and
human life of the f%railest tenure. MIR.
Carey came to Wyoming with a federal
commission in his pocket and no danger
or anxiety in his path save the possible
loss of official p%referment. Mr.. Organ
has long and loyalty served the territory as
a simple citizen excepting a term in the
legislature, where he honored himself and
the people,, asking no return not contain
ed in well doing, and in the pleasure Of
personal and energetic contribution to the
growth and development of Wyoming.
Mr.. Carey long and Loyalty served moth,
ing except himself aud the selfish inter,
ests of which he is the handspring and
center, and has never ceased to importune
the people OF Wyoming for f~avors, per
sonal and direct.
Such are the two men, one of whom
the people of Wyoming are to choose on
Tuesday next as the representative Of
Wyoming interests of Wyoming opinion
of Wyoming houor-in the next con.
gress of the United States. Will they
choose Organ, pure, able. u~nassuming,
fearless; the good citizen; the Man o.
Wyoming; or will they choose Carey. the
political fawner, charlatan, and allen; the
Man of Nothing and Nowhere.
People of Wyoming, Carbon count,
and the Platte valley, see that your ser
want, the ballot, serves you well in the
election of a congressional delegate"

IT Is alleged in extenuation of the local
leviathan of the Sun that he knows

The Democrats have this year been pecu-
liarly fortunate in the selection of a canji-
date for sheriff. They have secured a
man who has been known for many years
to the people of the county and whose
integrity and ability stand unquestioned
by fair minded people, In addition to
this he possesses the further qualification
of having had experience in the very Office
to which he aspires. AS deputy under
Draper and later under ~ShaIpless. in his
first term, he had direct charge of the
jail at a time when it was filled by as hard
d gang eliminates as has ever been gath.
cred there. During all of this time no
hitch of any kind ever occurred. The
duties of the Office were attended to
promptly, efficiently and economically.
During this entire campaign THE
LEADER has never said a word against
the private character of the Republican
candidate for sheriff. 1t will not do so
now. 1t believes the people will elect
Martin because of his past experience in
the administration of the office and his
special fitness for the performance of its
duties. He is a man in every respect
qualified to fill the office and we believe
the people, realizing this, will elect HIM
by a large majority.

The Rawlins Journal, in considering
Judge .Carey's recent Carbon county ad-
dress, says among other things: In re
gard to statehood he rehearses his old
speech printed for campaign purposes at
Washington with the additional informa-
ton that Colorado, as soon as she was
admitted as a state. leaped into popula-
ton from not to exceed 10000 to nearly
100000 in 1880. Every man that knows
anything at all about Colorado knows that
the Leadville mining excitement made
Colorado. That in walking through the
streets of Denver or Pueblo prior to the
gold excitement, in which Leadville rose
into existence, that placards exhibiting
''houses to rent" houses for SALE" were
plastered IN nearly every square in Den
yer and grass actually grew in the streets
of Pueblo. The Denver & Rio Grande
railroad and the discovery of gold at the
head of old California gulch made Colo
RADIO what it is to-day"

VIM. s. WEAVER, the Democratic can
didate for county clerk, is a popular, ener-
getic and capable young man whose many
qualifications for the Office to which he
aspires commend him to the people.
Aside from being a successful business
man of good education and unquestioned
integrity, he is always polite, affable and
accommodating. AS a servant of the
public he cannot fail to give entire salts
faction in performing the duties of his
Office economically and impartially.

THE nomination of Judge w. P. Car.
roll for justice of the peace by the Demo
cratic convention, when it was known by
all present that he had been a Republican
in national politics, was an unexpected
but graceful testimonial Of appreciation
by many present to an old time citizen of
Cheyenne who had seen the town in all
its ups and downs. Although the nomi-
nation was given spontaneously it was not
given heedlessly, for everybody present
realized that no better qualified man could
be selected to fill the position OF Jus
tice. A well read lawyer of many
years standing, a man of broad general
information and good judgment, his fit
ness was at once recognized. Scores Of
people in Cheyenne will vote for Judge
Carroll in remembrance OF old times. as
well ds because they know of his high
qualifications for the office. The Demo
cratic justice of the peace ticket is an I'M
usually good one. Mr.. J. H. Goddard,
the other nominee, has had much exper.
fence in the same line. He is a man of
cool judgment, practical and well versed
in law. With Carroll and Goddard in
the justices chairs of Cheyenne, the peo
Pile can be assured that Justice and com
mon sense will go together.
