THE work on the wings of the capitol
building is progressing nicely, 1t is now
expected that they will be ready to re-
celve the roof by the first of June. The
details of the work are being so very
carefully looked after by Mr.. l.. r.
Bresnahen, who represents the capital
commission, that no faulty stone can pos
sibly enter into the construction. The
quality of stone is superior to that in the
superstruction of the building as it comes
from a new quarry at Rawlins and can be
secured in blocks of any dimensions de-
sired. When the building is completed
the people of the territory will have a
capitol of which they may well be proud.
1t will show dollar for dollar for everything
appropriated out of the territorial treas
ury and stand a monument to the enter
prise and wealth OF the great territory
which built it.

ONE of the most notable sights that the
city will afford this season will be the city
park, perhaps the most attractive public
resort in the Rocky mountain region. Mr..
Henry Altman, chairman of the council
park committee, has now spent two years
Of hard, intelligent work upon it. The
northeast section will be laid out in geo.
metric circles and hedges started to ulti-
mately replace the wire fence that now
e~ncloses the park. The public fountain,
donated by Mrs. T. B. Hicks, will be
filed with fish and its surroundings deco
rated with flowers. -Four miles from the
city Mr.. Altman has had a greenhouse
erected at his own expense in which he
has met with the greatest success in rails
ing plants and flowers. The variety is SC
great that the park will bloom from the
earliest moment in the spring until late in
the fall. Mr.. Altman's work in this con-
nection is worthy the commentator Of
every citizen OF Cheyenne.

THE FIGHT FOR GOVERNOR.
what the Territorial Papers Still Have
to Say About 1t.
douglas Republican.

Undoubtedly if Wyoming was united
on any one man for governor a Wyoming
man would be appointed without any
hesitancy on the part Of the administra-
ton.
+. L. Warren is the choice of the peo-
pie and is about the only man that can fill
the position with equal satisfaction to the
whole territory. He Is a brainy man ard
a mar that engages the respect and conf
dence of the territory.
Mr.. Morgan, ex-secretary of the terri
tory, is a candidate and is being boosted
for the office by a coterie of political
friends that hope to be counted in in the
event OF his appointment. Mr.. Morgan
is an energetic citizen and has several
recommending qualities, but he is not the
man that Warren is for the place. 1t is
the general opinion that Morgan's guber-
material aspirations would sink if he was
again assured of the secretaryship. A
compromise of this character is looked for
and in such event Governor Warren would
be lett alone and would certainly be ap-
pointed to the office.
, 1889-03-20

Wyoming, being personally interested in
all movements which are calculated to
benefit and increase the population and
revenue of the territory. he has large
interests here and his knowledge of the
coustry is therefore accurate. The. only
argument so far used against Mr.. Warren
may be summed up in the fact hat He
is a Cheyenne man." This, undoubtedly,
is IN overwhelming (?) argument against
the gentleman in question. The fact
that he has been identified with the best
interests of Cheyenne, serves to show that
he is a wide-awake and progressive citi-
zen, and the editor who opposes him
upon the above grounds should be driven
into the inaccessible Businesses. of the I'M
illuminated oblivion.

AS THE assessable value of all other
classes OF live stock was lowered by the
territorial equalization board it was nc
more than Just that the members should
finally decide to let range cattle remain at
last years figures. As property is Invari-
ably put in at not more than one half its
actual value, Sll is a tolerably Just valua.
ton for range stock, provided the actual
number of cattle in the territory is re-
turned to the assessor. 1t was shown
yesterday hat the prevailing beef prices
this year are % per cent lower than last
year. and as beef regulates the price Of
range cattle there were no good grounds
for increasing their assessable valuation as
was at first done.

G~ENERALLY PROSPER Gus

The chairmen of all the boards of
county commissioners who have been in
the city for the past ten days all tell the
same story. The sections which they rep
resent are prosperous and the outlook for
the present season is brighter than it has
been for several years. The greatest need
felt in al. sections is for railroad facilities
to provide accessible markets for the agri-
cultural and mineral products.
Even in the face OF this lack OF railroads
immigration is pouring into many sec
tions and mineral wealth is being eagerly
sought for. Not one of these intelligent
and well informed men but is exceedingly
hopeful OF the future and speaks with
pride of the particular section from which
he halls. Conversations had with these
gentlemen make one proud of the terri
tory as a whole, of its prospect, its re-
sources and its natural advantages.
Nothing hastens good times quicker
than the confident expectation of their
coming. If this be true Wyoming may
well look hopefully forward to the future.

The g~ubernatorial race is becoming in
teresting, particularly so as there is ikeli-
hood of the winner being named within a
fortnight.
Ex-Secretary Morgan is actively push
ing his claims and the friends OF ex-Gov-
ernor Warren have come to regard him
as a dangerous rival of their favorite.
Mr.. Morgan recently made a tour of the
Union Pacific towns, and, Judging by the
newspaper comments, he left a favorable
impression with the people. 1t is claimed
for MIR. Morgan-and the point seems a
to an unsafe extent he is better able to
execute the important duties of Office
equally and with fairness toward the
whole territory than is his opponent.

The session of the territorial board Of
equalization yesterday was a sort OF school
of oratory in which some Of the remarks
we're accentuated with forcible, il not
always choice. phraseology. r. F.Glover,

acknowledged to have carried off the ora
torical honors OF the session. His decided
ability as an of-hand. forcible public
speaker was a revelation to his friends.
