A NEW COMBINE.
Stockmen Organize a County Protec-
tive Association.

An offshoot of the Wyoming Stock
Growers Association has taken form I'M
der the style of the Laramie County Pro-
tective Association" an organization
which filed its certificate of incorporation
at the office of the territorial secretary
yesterday. Article second reads:
THE object for which our said com.
pany is formed is to do all those reason
able and lawful things necessary and
proper to be done to prevent live stock
which is usually kept upon the range
and ranches in Laramie county from stray
ing and drifting away from said county
into the states of Colorado and Nebraska;
to discover and prevent the d~epredations
of thieves upon such live stock, and to
bring to justice the perpetrators of such
depredations; to prevent the ravages of
wild ANIMALS upon such live stock, and to
do all such necessary and proper acts and
things as will in any manner conduce to
the safety and security of live stock, and
other property of persons engaged in the
live stock business; and to contract for
and receive and collect from the persons
owning such live stock such compensation
for services rendered by our said company
within the scope of its object and purpose
as may be agreed upon"
The company has a capital stock of
81. 500 consisting of five shares at $500
each. John CLAW. Jr.. Marcus nj. Ma

DIR. BIRNEY.
Success of a Nose and Throat Special
list Here.

A reporter called on Dr.. Birney at the
Inter Ocean last evening and found the
eminent nose and throat specialist very
busy. There was a patient in the chair
and several others awaited the pleasure of
the master of the electrical treatment for
catarrh and other nasal and t~hroattroubles.
DR.. Birney relieves their troubles IN
stantly and cures permanently in all cases.
His treatment is the most modern, hay-
ing been perfected less than a year ago.
When necessary the doctor resorts to eau
terization, and has been successful in
every case. Nose surgery with the knife
has never been satisfactory on account of
bleeding, but cauterization is not attended
with a flow of blood. The seat of dis
ease Is located by the aid of a powerful
light and perfect glasses. Then the
cauterizing implement, a fine wire
is attached to a covered wire from an
electric battery. The current turned on
the wire thread quickly reaches a white
heat. 1t is then used as the surgeon phys
knife on accessible parts of the anatomy.
The fungi and superfuous tissue disap-
pear at the touch of this wire. A loup is
utilized in removing the mild tumors
sometimes occurring IN the nose. Powd
ers and liquids are introduced into the
organ with sprayers attached to an air re-
ceivcr. All operations are absolutely
painless as the affected part is Amounted
with cocaine before cauterization.
DR.. BirneY has been ten years a nose
and throat specialist and is the western
pioneer with the electrical system. In
Cheyenne he has already made some re
markable cures. To the writer's certain
knowledge he cured an aggravated case OF
catarrhal deafness in half an hour yester-
day.

THE PIPE LINE
Practical Talk From a Gentleman of
the Company.

p. L. Mcnamara, secretary Of the Wy
oming & Denver Oil Pipe Line, was in
Laramie the other day and talked in this
eminently practical style to a Boomerang
reporter:
I'VE first want to develop our fields
and sink wells. We are now trying to
put our stock in the hands of a syndicate
and shall devote the first $4,000 or so to
development work. If we find oil in the
quantities in which we believe it exists
there is no doubt we will get the capital
we wan to lay the pipe line and operate
it. But it is hard work to get capital to
go into an undeveloped field. l have now
no doubt that we will have the money
needed to begin operations subscribed
within the next month or so. and we
shall then at once go ahead this fall to
develop the field and survey the line.
THE oil fields, controlled by the com.
pany at Casper and run to Err
yay through the Rattlesnake district. The
company has of course sunk no wells yet.
There are only surface Indications over
the field now. l have been all over it,
having spent the last five or six years
there, and there are oil springs every few
miles. Several Pennsylvania men who
have visited the fields have spoken highly
OF it. Our superintendent is an old oil
drillar -

The Carey Letter.

chile aud surprising language hat he has

ton with the governor and that they pro-.
pose within a year to bring to their feet
c~rnging and scrying for mercy everyone
who to exercise the great Amer
lean prerogative of criticising the acts of
these public servants.
We do not believe that the m,n of
Wyoming are cowardly enough to permit
such brazen %effrontery to pass by unno-
ticed. We do not believe they will per-
init the establishment In their midst of
any such dictatorship as the conspirators
are seeking to enthrone, and we are con-
fdent that when tho power is placed in
their hands they will repudiate the men
and methods which strike at the very root
of the PRINCIPLES which a republican gov
eminent has taught them to revere.

THE Il
Circular Letter Just Issued by Presi-
dent John W. Uoyt.

Here are excerpts from a letter Just
issued by John w. Hoyt, president of
the territorial university at Laramie:
In recognition OF the excellence of the
work done in the Systematically organized
and regularly graded schools of Wyoming,
and as a means of avoiding the embar-
rassment to parents of sending their
sons and daughters considerable distances
without the certainty of their admission,
it has been decided to make the trial of
admitting to the preparatory department
all applicants bringing from the princi-
pals of such schools certificates of good
character and proficiency in the studies
constituting the work of the eighth grade
therein; but should students so received
prove, upon trial, to have less than the
requisite proficiency in such studies, they
will be requested to withdraw at the end
of the first term after admission.
Instruction is free to all students of
Wyoming who are nominated by the
county commissioners of the several
counties DluuGuIS run OutSluC tuC IST-
ritory and those resident therein not
availing themselves of such nomination
will pay an annual fee of S. at date of
admission.
All students will pay an annual fee of
s.. so in aid of the university library.
Boarding in good families under general
supervision of the faculty can be had for
s25 to S2S per month.
Young ladies or young gentlemen desir-
ing to form clubs for the purpose of
boarding themselves at actual cost will be
aided by the faculty in securing desirable
dwellings or apartments for the purpose.
The Office Of registration will be open
at the university on Sent. 3 and the
classes will be organized as soon thereafter
as practicable, but the regular work Of
instruction will not begin until Sept. 10.

HARNISH'S POLICY.
Royal Edict of the Exalted Street
Commissioner.
FallaciOus Views of a Man Who
Should Say Nothing.
A Fair Statement of the Grieyous
Tramp Question.

An anonymous writer who signs
Judge rushes to print in defense OF F.
E. Harnish, a very ordinary parsonage
who has been dIgnified with the title Of
street commissioner and who in conse-
quence has been compelled to secure an
extraordinarily large hat. If Harnish
we're a competent city employe who APP
preciatcd his trust no defense OF him
would be necessary. Instead of attend
ing to his duties he is attempting to fol-
low a policy more elaborate than ever out
lined by the chief administrative officer of
the city.
Harnish, by proxy, advances reasons
for his failure to utilize tramps. The
man is entirely out of his province when
he enters the reasoning field. His bust
ness is to follow out the instructions of
the chairman of the street and alley com.
mittee and the mayor, both of whom
have said that tramps should be worked
on the streets. But then Harnish's ex-
cuses are fouDdationless. Laboring men
are in demand in this city. O'Brien &
Lawler have advertised for laborers, the
Union Pacific has exhausted the local
supply and is importing men from Colo
RADIO, while ranchmen are looking for
hands here everyday. Under any cir
cumstances there is always street work on
which tramps can be utilized without ex-
Guiding home men. As a matter of fact
this street work is a little less laborious
than work for companies or individuals.
There are now in the city jail five burly
tramps enjoying a rest. Run them out
of town" has been suggested. This is in
cffectual. They return if so inclined,
for even if again arrested TO
punishment follows. If the itin
Grants continue the wandering they
disseminate the intelligence that
in Cheyenne tramps are well fed and
lodged, or at worst ordered out of town.
But when one OF these fellows works on
the streets ten days he decamps when his
term expires and gives Cheyenne a black
eve all along the line. This was the state
of affairs when there was a level-headed
street commissioner who had no policy in
particular, but who knew his business.
The tramping fraternity all over the
country knew that they would be com
PEELED to work on the streets in Cheyenne
and fought shy of the town. There is
now on file in the city clerks Office a re-
port from Marshal Schnitger showing that
in a single season Cheyenne saved a neat
sum by having a street commissioner who
made tramps work instead of deliberately
allowing them TO escape and then boast
ing Of it. Perhaps Harnish has political
aspirations. If so he should smother
them. His only qualification is a large
amount of self esteem and unauthorized
gall. He should be sat upon
As noted in these columns yesterday
the town is overrun with tramps and sus-
picious characters. Superintendent Barr
offered the city a rock pile on which they
might be placed, but this was refused on
the ground that their labor was needed ON
the streets, and now the wishes of the
council and citizens are disregarded by a
man who has nothing whatever to say in
the matter.
