THE COST OF STATEHOOD.

We give space in another column to a
communication from George w. Baxter
on the subject of the probable expendi-
lures under a state form of government
as compared with what are actually known
to be the expenditures under the t%erritor-
ial government.
1t will be noticed hat an earnest effort
is being made to meet the question
squarely by going into the details instead
CLOSING them over by generalities which
80 frequently shoot wide of the facts.
Notwithstanding all that has been sid
to the contrary there can be no doubt
that the expenses under a state govern
ment will be much greater than they are
at present. This we believe will be now
admitted by everyone who gives an honest
expression Of his views on the subject.
On the other hand there will be an in
crease Of revenue as n matter OF course
and much of the difference of opinion
has its origin on the question oi the
probable additional amount OF revenue
which will be derived under the new or
der OF things. That the receipts from
state lands will be smaller than it is gener-
ally believed it will be We believe Mr..
Baxter proves conclusively.
From every one Of the new states comes
precisely the same story of confidence Of
capital, financial vitality and the extern
a;on oc daya1opmant ac,ar tha tarr;tnrioI
form OF government has been cast aside
and statehood becomes an accomplished
fact. Retrogression is shown only in one
case, hat of Nevada, where the causes are
extremely peculiar. The territory vas
elevated to statehood in a mining boom
and when that collapsed it went into a
condition of partial desuetude. 1t is now
in the grasp OF the Central Pacific railroad,
which is owned and controlled by the
most autocratic and unreasonable lot Of
scoundrels in the country. These men
stile local enterprise, grind the people
and draw the very life blood from the
state, so that Nevada cannot he taken as
a basis of comparison in any honest con-
sideration OF the statehood question.
1t is well to advocate statehood and de-
sirbale to attain it, but it should be done
without any attempt to hoodwink the
public. We are therefore glad to see a
citizen of Wyoming come before the pub
lie with what he believes to be an honest
even though is is not an enthusiastic view
of the case and still pronounce strongly in
favor of the statehood movement

4 CHANCE FOR

The celebration in this city next Tues
day and Wednesday will reach much lar
ger proportions than most people seem to
appreciate and the opportunity should not
be lost of thoroughly advertising the
city.
The parade should be commensurate
with the remainder of the display and ola
character to impress visitors with the en-
terprise and our of the town. In
addition to the military and civic parade,
the merchants have a great chance to ad-
vertise themselves and the town by max
ing individual displays in the procession.
THIS method, SO largely adopted in large
cities, has scarcely come into vogue here.
Flats could be rugged up at a trifing ex-
pense which would make a beautiful dis
play in a procession, and, while serving
the purpose Of advertising individual
firms, would, at the same time, give visit
ors from abroad a better idea of the mag
nitude OF our local business.

MORE NONSENSE.

The Sun quotes with exultant APP
proval a letter written from this territory
by a travelling correspondent of the New
York Tribune. In it is given the follow
ing startling piece of information:
The sheep industry is steadily moving
forward. You cannot immagine how
quickly and widely stimulating was the
effect of the last national election upon
this great business. The result had not
been known a day before the sheep grow
ers began to expand all their relations.
Their herds are growing and theirs is be-.
coming foremost among the stock inter
ests of the northwest.
The correspondent is altogether correct
in his statement that the result OF the ma
tional contest hadn't been known a
day" before the sheep growcrs began to
expand in all their relations. Indeed, to
be strictly accurate the result of the cleo
ton had not been even forecasted be-
fore the sheep men began to expand. AS
d matter of fact the sheep industry, IN its
present improving condition. bears only
the very remotest relations to anything
political. The advance in price is due to
purely commercial conditions and the i'm
provement of the business was noticeable
during the heat of the national campaign,
while the ultimate result was still shroud-
ed in the greatest uncertainty. 1t was at
hat time that several Wyoming men
made heavy purchases, knowing that they
would reap financial benefit no matter
which way the election turned.
The whole tenor of this portion of the
Tribune article wildly r~evives the remin-
iscent chestnut about the Laramie glass
works. Republican papers and Republi-
can speakers loudly proclaimed that
should Cleveland be elected the glass
works would Immediately close up.
Cleveland was defeated, and the apostle
of protection, Mr.. Harrison, elected, but
the glass works closed up lust the same.
