with most brilliant and assuring pros
poets for q glorious future. In these par
~tlculars Wyoming is far and away in ad
vance of her sisters of the ULion. Moth
ing short OF a national panic could retard
her progress at this time. THE LEADER
has set forth these facts frequently, but
yesterday learned that it had really been
conservative in this direction. Reporters
for the paper have interviwed the ten
chairmen of the county boards who are
here fixing live stock valuations as re-
quired by law. The gentlemen are repre-
sentative business men of their sections
and their opinions are worth something.
JOHNSON COUNTY.
III. R. Mann was assured that the people
of this city were leaving no stone un-
turned to hasten the extension of the
Cheyenne & Northern to Buffalo, john
son county. which town, by the way, is
one of the most progressive of the age.

establishments. Touring mills and other
manufacturing industries. 1t is destined
to become a great city-the queen of the
north. johnson is called the banner
county. There is no better agricultural
land in America than here-and only the
home market. The -four is superior to
the Colorado product, all grains equal to
the best, while vegetables and small fruits
thrive and the farmers are planting or
chards. Coal occur frequently in the
county and the country is well timbered
and watered with prodigallty. Johnson's
warrants are at par.
Evanston is the largest town in Western
Wyoming and Mr.. 1. c. Winslow says
that it is growing steadily. The
Central Pacific has recently opened
a new coal mine near there and the Pa
cifc Short Line Railway company is oper-
ating in the north. There is much fine
farming land in Uinta, a large area of
public p~asturage and coal lands galore.
The property valuation OF the county
h~uctuates from a peculiar cause. Colo
