A LIGHT VOTE

1t was demonstrated by yesterdays
election Of delegates to the constitutional
convention hat an election devoid of
p~artisanship is an election devoid Of in
terest.
In this county, as in most counties Of
the territory, fusion tickets were placed
in nomination by the party conventions
and the tickets thus named we're practi-
cally elected at the moment of nomination.
As an instance of the small degree of in
terest felt in the election it may be stated
that Cheyenne, which usually polls >, 600
votes, yesterday polled 452.
The lack of interest at The polls can by
no means be taken as an indication ofany
lack of interest felt in statehood by the
people. 1t was simply a case OF cxercis-
ing the franchise privilege as a formality
and very few people can be induced to
bother their heads about voting for form
ality's sake.
The indications now are that the Re
publicans will undoubtedly have a major
ity in the constitutional convention.

WELGOME

On behalf of the people of Cheyenne
The LEADER bids the many visitors to
town to day a cordial welcome.
Many who visit it for the first time
will find Cheyenne a town worthy of all
the praise that has been bestowed Upon it.
1t has some of the crude characteristics
of a frontier town but has all the i'm
provements which go to make up and dig
nifv a pretentious young Western city.
The visiting fremen will find in the
local teams foemen worthy of their metal,
hut they will also find generous rivals
who will meet them with no unnatural
advantage in their favor. In the display
attendant upon The corner stone laying
tomorrow morning they may Judge of
the caliber and enterprise Of. the town.
They may witness the laying OF the cor
ner stone oil a shop plant which, when
completed, will be unequalled in extent
by my owned by a railroad company in
the United States,
We hope the stay OF all the visitors
will be rendered exceedingly pleasant and
that when they leave the city they will
carry away with them -ecollections of the
kindlest nature.
Once more we bid them thrice well

Three HebeIlions n Day.

Three rebellions, obstinate, though
bloodless occur in the stomach Of the
dyspeptic who partakes of food thrice n
day. The digestive organ refuses on each
occasion to perform the duty assigned to
ftby nature, and trouble ensues. How
discipline, how regulate it2 Simply with
a wineglassful of the genial invigorant
and appetizer, Hostetter's stomach bit
tiers before each meal and before retiring.
Digestion will, after a course of this
pleasant regulator, become easily, and its
%forerunner, appetite also improve. Ner-
vousness and insomnia. always induced by
chronic dyspepsia, will disappear with It's
disappearance thus insured, and constipa-
ton and biliousness, its usual attendants,
also take their leave. Not only will the
system acquire strength. but also sub
stance by a more perfect assimilation of
the food. Rheumatism, malarial and
kidney complaint and neuralgia yield to
the Bitters.

AGAIN 4 VICTOR.

John L. Sullivan has again retrieved
himself and stands once more crowned by
common consent the champion p~ugilist of
the world.
Notwithstanding all that has been said
of him it is impossible TO get away from
the fact that Sullivan is a pugilistic pro-
dizzy. In his last fight he wins new laur-
els and develops conspicuously character
istlcs which few have not given him credit
for possessing. 1t has always been said
of Sullivan that his strength lay entirely
in the fercencss Of his onslaughts in the
iirst half dozen ROUNDS, and hat the com
petitor who held his own during that
period OF time was more than liable to
win the battle.
Sullivan's running match with Charley
Mitchell added much strength to the sdp-
posed correctness of these conclusions.
Even his admirers realized that the willy
Englishman had outgeneraled him, and
hat at the moment of the draw it would
have been a matter OF utter impossibility
for Sullivan TO have whipped his anfago-
mist.
But the fight OF yesterday demonstrates
that Sullivan, while previously effective
in the onslaught possesses at the same
time in al eminent degree those superb
staying qualities which make him a
fighter TO the very death.
kiirain is the only mar lately mentioned
who was considered as being actually able
to cope with Sullivan. Yesterdays battle
shows him to be a dufFer alongside the big
Boston boy. Sullivan is now the undis-
puted champion of the world, and he can
well afford to rest upon his %laurels.
The interest taken in the outcome of
this fight has been intense. People who
are constitutionaly opposed TO prize fight
ing looked eagerly and a~nxiously for the
result. They have now learned it and
probably experience some pleasure for the
best mar has undoubtedly won.

SOME FOREIGN VIEWS.
What Some Papers Published Abroa

A Land Grabbing Governor.

lChicago Herald July 81
There be land thieves and water
thieves" said the crafty Shylock Or a
w~ell-known occasion, and with that opinion
all observers OF western land grabbing will
coincide. The fairest domain ever seen
under the sun has been the prey of sharp.
ers and of periurers. In Colorado and
New Mexico they have stolen the water,
and everywhere they have stolen the land.
Honest settlers have been cheated and de-
feated. while constituencies officials. cattle
rings and suborners of perjury generally
have robbed the government and the peo-
pie of the best of all their lands.
A case recently brought to light %iavolv-
ing Governor Francis L. Warren Of Wyo-
ming, a late appolntee of President Har-
r%ison's. exhibits the r~ascally and auda-
cious methods pursued by land grabbers

"When the Times some weeks ago
printed a dispatch from Cheyenne set
ting forth reasons why President Har-
rison's appointment of Francis f. War
rem to be governor Of Wyoming territory
was improper and one not fit to be made,

and with much vigor denounced the

being a land grabber and n member of any

American manhood. Prompted by a de-

Their inquiry into Governor Warren record
and in this task 1t has had the valuable
aid Of Judge William Ware Peck. But
Judge Peck does not ask those who read
his letters to take his opinion about the
governor-he sets before them record
evidence. He shows that at the time
When GoYernor Warren swore that he was
residing upon land pre-empted by him in
Laramie county he was actually a resi-
dent of Cheyenne and n member of the
city council. representing the second ward.
1t is plain that Warren swore falsely in
making his presumption proof on
Jan. %, 1884, but the oath
hat he took ms to his residence was
a necessary condition TO obtaining a war
rant for the land. A little thing like per
jury was not allowed to stand in the way
of acquiring the land he wanted. War
rem was removed from the goyernorship
by President Cleveland for illegally fenc-
ing in government land fer his own use.
President Harrison restored him to Office,
though the records of the public land Of
flee contain the proof of his fraud and
periuries. As Judge Peck remarks the
spectacle is singular

thur, and was removed by Cleveland be-
cause he enclosed government land in his
cattle ranch. Harrison r~eappointed him.
He is a principal stockholder in the War
rem Live Stock company. He has always
resided in Cheyenne. In 1881 and 1882
he was a member of the council of that
city. During hat time he undertook to
pre-empt eighty acres of government land,
and IN order to do 40 it was necessary to
make oath that he had actually resided
on the land for six months and improved
it, The records of the land
office show that he took the oath
and swore to actual residence on an i'm.
proyement of the land. At the very
same tire the city records show be was a
resident of Cheyenne and a member of
the council. Now, it is not likely that
MIR. Warren has the faculty that Mrs.
Malaprop ascribed to Cerberus Of being
three gentlemen at once" or even two.
And yet he holds the title to land that
could only be acquired honestly by actual
residence.
This is the kind of man Harrison has
picked out for a territorial governor.
This is the kind of man who. stumbling
at no kind of oath, has enriched himself
out OF the lands Of the people. The Ter.
aid will note with interest the action the
president takes in respect to this case.

PHILADELPHIA, April 16.-Captain Smith,
of the British steamer La Flandria, which
arrived this afternoon from Antwerp, was
commander of the Inflated Danmark before
her change of ownership, and was much
concerned when he learned of the disaster
which is said to have overtaken the vessel.
Captain Smith, when questioned, said the
Danmark was remarkably strong vessel.
She was built in water tight cOmpart-
ments: had water tanks from the bridge aft
and was extra braced with iron about the
upper works. I'm fact" he added, Isle
was one of the strongest built iron vessels
| ever was in. l commanded her when she
was sold, just previous to her last trip, and
was chief officer prior to that, and would
not wish to sail in better ship
Captain Smith said further that he had
crossed very close to where the ship was
sighted If the boats were picked up
he continued, by a sailing vessel,
her proper course would be to
stand on for the Irish channel
OF course no sailing vessel would continue
on her voyage with such a crowd on board,
unless the port she was bound to was the
one she was most likely to reach. 1t would
take longer for a vessel to make the Irish
coast from where the Danmark was seen,
because she would be mostly ahead. The
distance to the Fast nett lighthouse would
be about eleven hundred miles, and with
good winds sailing vessels hi to make it
in about eight days.

Her Former Captain Speaks-Preparing to

WASHINGTON, April 16.-The secretary Of
the treasury recently received a letter in
quiring whether the transfer by manufac-
turers from any foreign country to the
United States, Of their plant, machinery,
work people and interests or any portion
thereof, with a view to permanent settle
ment would in any way be conflicting with
the statutes relating to alien contract labor;
and also whether such as was in use would
be entitled to free entry
In response, the secretary called atten-
ton to the provisions of section of
an act approved February %, 1885, which
provides that it shall be unlawful for any
person, company, partnership or corpora
ton in any way whatsoever to pay the
transportation or in any way assist or en-
courage the migration of any alien or aliens
or foreigner or foreigners into the United
States under contract or agreement, express
or implied, made previous to the importa
ton or migration of such alien or aliens,
foreigner or foreigners, to perform labor or
service of any kind in the United States.
The secretary said that no facts are
stated which would exempt the importa-
ton of the work people referred to by the
provisions. 1t would seem that their
transfer in the manner proposed would be
violation of the law
In answer to the inquiry as to the entry
of the machinery referred to, tie secretary
said that there is no law under which such
entry can be authorized.

They Are Ready.

ARKANSAS CITY, KS, April 1.-Two
hundred and forty eight prairie schooners
went into camp here to-day, and fully 5000
persons have arrived by the railroads, max
ing the estimated crowd 10000. The tenn
porary sojourners state that colonies are
being organized in camps, the Illinois col
ony now having 1900 members and Ohio
and Missouri following in the order named
with from 800 members down to 300.
Permission was received to-day by United
States Commissioner Benzel from the de
partment of war for all persons going by
wagon to break camp on the morning of the
line of the lands to be opened to settle
ment. All is quiet along the line, and the
commander of the troops, who was here to-
day, said he apprehended no trouble or
strife among the people.

Sugar Things Are Not what They Seem.

NEW YORK, April 16.-In the suit re-
Gently brought against the American Sugar
Refining company of San Francisco in the
name of the people and upon the same al
legations used in the action against the
North River Sugar Refining company, it
was discovered that the American Sugar
Refining company had assigned to The
odOre a. Hayemeyer, H. O. Havemeyer
and Charles Sneff under peculiar circum-
stances. Of course, the case of the people
of San Francisco must fall through having
no property by reason of the assignment.
A receiver cannot be appointed and the
company will possibly be run quietly by
Havemeyer&5 Snef. This leads to the sup
position that the sugar trust, at least in its
original form, is a thing Of the past, and
that the verdict against the North River
company scared the trust people; and it is
presumed all refineries have putthemselves
in the same condition.
The American, though nominally dead,
is evidently in the 0trust. In point of
fact the trust is very much alive, as is
evidenced by the recent rapid advance in
sugars of all grades.

DENVER, April 16.-A Cheyenne special
says: The town of Grover, Colorado, forty
miles east of here on the Burlington road,
was to-day the scene of sensational bank
robbery, copied after the recent hold-up in
Denver. Shortly after the bank opened
this morning, an unknown cowboy rode up
to the bank, entered and presented check
for $40. Cashier Smith, who was alone at
the time, turned towards the window to
examine the writing, and on turning his
face toward the man, found himself covered
with a six-shooter. The man said: ''The
check is no good, but want your cash all
the same
Smith demurrad ana the man threatened
to shoot, whereupon he handed him all the
cash out of the safe, amounting to over one
thousand dollars. The robber took this and
a Winchester rifle Standing by the side of
the cashier, backed to the door, jumped
upon horse, and rode over the Wyoming
line. Smith Immediately gave the alarm
and posse was organized and started in
pursuit Tonight the robbers horse was
found near the station of Pine Bluff, and it
is believed the hold-up left him here and
took the train either east or west. A
description has been wired along the road
and apprehension is almost certain.

ST. PAULS STREET CAR STRIKE.
The Legislature Interferes and Act on the
Franchise.

ST. PAUL, April 1.-THE street car strike
in ST Paul has reached the legislature and
was acted upon by that body this afternoon,
the city railway company being knocked
out in the first round.
This is the fourth day of the strike and
no attempt has. been made to start the cars
or otherwise accommodate the public. The
legislature probably acted more promptly
than it would otherwise have done, as the
matter came up in the shape of bill by
Willrich, which repeats the previous act
validating the old ordinance giving the St.
Paul city railway company the exclusive
privilege to the streets of this city, and
the bill passed by vote to 66 to 16.
The effect of this legislation, which will
probably pass the senate, is to throw open
the matter of exclusive right to the streets
and leave the decision to a master of the
court
