ITS TUNE IS

When President Charles Francis Adams
of the Union Pacific was in the city last
summer the Sun made mention OF the
fact that he was SO much pleased with the
appearance of the city park Che plat of
ground having been originally donated by
the Union Pacific to the city for park Dur
poses) that he instructed the local Union
Pacific officials to forward n requisition
for the 81 900 clock. which is about to be
placed in the tower of the depot.
The peculiar course which the Sun
pursues with regard to Democratic Off
cials has often been remarked upon. Dur
ing the breathing spells between cam
psgns it will frequently give them credit
for the efficiency which they possess, but
the moment they come up for office again
it can scarcely find words sufficiently
coarse with which to characterize them or
inability too pronounced to serve its cam
paign purposes.
Although it is a self evident fact that
great results have been secured in the
park from n very little outlsy-and this
the Sun cheerfully acknowledged a brief
month ago-it has now nothing but sheer
ing illusions and deprecatory remarks for
everything Mr., Altman has done. On
the LIST of last month the Sun contained
the following article:
II. Altman. whose efficient labors in the
care and improvement of the city park
have been 30 universally appreciated was
pleasantly surprised Yesterday morning
by an invitation to step into Hon. j. NJ.
Carey's rooms where he was met by a del
egation Of some OF C~heyenne's most prom
inent ladies who presented him with q set
Of beautiful gold sleeve buttons set with
diamonds. Accompanying the gift was
the following note:
CHEYENNE, Sept. 30. lsSe.-Mr. H.
Altman, Dear Sir:-It affords us great
pleasure to present to you the enclosed to
ken of our appreciation Of your services in
beautifying the city park and SO adding
to the attractions OF Cheyenne.
Very truly yours.
This note was signed by twenty Jour la
dies. Henry thinks it is the finest pres
ent he ever received considering the sen
timents Of the fair donors, and he has
right to feel proud.

WHEN the friends of Mr.. Adams take
away from him his alleged record as the
great American stock law expunger what
is left to characterize his public career in

himself may think about it the people
have no reason to be proud of the record
there made and are certainly not inclined
to repeat an experiment which once
proved a signal failure.

A FOR WARD


This day marks an epoch in the history
of Wyoming. This day the people de-
eide whether tLey are perfectly satisfied
with their present political condition or
whether they will make an advance
movement toward complete enfranchise-
ment.
A constitution is submitted for ~ratiica-
ton. 1t makes wise provisions for better
government, for purity of the ballot and
for retrenchment and reform in the man.
agement of affairs. Despite minor
defects the general tendency is in
the right direction. The people should
not be hoodwinked into coniuring evils
which do not exist nor anticipating dan
gers which may never arise.
For or against the constitution is the
great questiSn to day. Shall we go for.
ward or backward? The affirmative or
negative Of the proposition will decide.
Everybody agrees that we need some
powerful influence to relieve us from our
present lethargy. The adoption of the
constitution will again throw US proml-
nently before the country and in a favor
able light The adoption Of the constitu-
ton now will be a public notification that
we are ready to emerge from the terrific
rial shell.
DO not let us then point our applica
lion to congress with an apology for so do
ing, but let us make our appeal vigorously
and actively.
Vote for the constitution.

In a recent article in the Youths Com
pdRion, on How to Cure a Cold" a
writer advises a hot lemonade to be taken
at bed time. 1t is a dangerous treatment
as it opens the pores of the skin and
leaves the system in such condition that
another and more severe cold is certain
to be contracted. Many years constant
use and the experience of thousands of
persons has fully demonstrated that there
is nothing better for a severe cold than
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. 1t acts
In perfect harmony with nature, relieves
the lungs, l%iquifies the tough tenacious
mucus. making it easier to expectorate,
and restore the system to a strong and
healthy condition. For sale by B. B.

EXPENDITURES in the city park are
likewise investments for which the munic.

The Sun claims that Mr.. Adams did
not state right after the adjournment Of

contrary Of which il ASSERTS.

A Practical Joke Which Came Near End

A young physician went to see his cousin,
an army officer, out upon the great plains
The officer was given to practical jokes, and
the young doctor, being genuine tender

morning, says the Youths Companion, the
host gravely proposed an elephant hunt
''What," said the doctor, do you have ele-
plants out herel"
PLENTY of them" replied the host. Prep
arations were at once begun, and by nine
o'clock party of youngsters, ripe for the
fun, were after elephants. When about five
or six miles from the post the doctor was
sent through a thicket Of ''wait-a-bit"
thorns, of which he knew nothing. Antici-
pating rare sport at his plight on his return
the host sat on his horse waiting, when he
heard a shot and was startled by loud cries
for help.
He galloped through the glades and az
rived at small prairie opening Of an acre
or two in extent, around which the doctor
was franticaly urging his pony, while only
few yards behind was huge wild Texas
bull IN fun charge.
All the manliness of the host was aroused

Chicaco Grain and Produce.

CHICAGO March 6-Only moderate
business was transacted in wheat today
and the feeling was unsettled. tluctua-
tions were not violent, but frequent
within 15lc range for May. The opening
for May was 1@1Ic lower than yesterday,
which was the inside price of day, rallied
with numerous fluctuations l%c, declined
&c. recovered sc and closed about &c
higher than yesterday. July ruled steadler
and after opening &c lower advanced ~
and closed the same as yesterday. There
was nothing new in the situation and a
mystery still surrounds the trade which
operators are unable to decipher. The I'M
preston prevails that one Of the large bull
traders has sold out mis- holdings, but
whether this operation merely represented
a side issue and was in conjunction with
other bulges it is difficult to say. There
was an effort made today TO hold the mar
ket and prevent further decline, buying
orders on break being sufficient to cause a
reaction.
A quiet, steady feeling prevailed in corn
most of the session, trading being only
moderate and almost entirely local. The
market opened at yesterdays prices and
closed a shade lower.
Oats were more active during the first
half of the session than on any day this
week On unloading by longs May de-
clined &c but buying by shorts caused
rally to opening figures and the close was
a shade lower than yesterday. The mar
ket for hog products was the center OF
speculative attraction and trading was
quite brisk.
Mess pork opened at 1215@15c advance,
but this was partially lost. Later the
market exhibited considerable strength
and prices suddenly advanced 35@3115.
This tended to enlarge offerings and prices
