STATE SUPERINTENDENT.

Hon. A. V. Quinn OF Evanston, the
Democratic candidate for state superin-
tendent of public instruction, should be
elected by 40 overwhelming majority. He
was a resident of this section before
Wyoming was created a territory, and
ever since the early days has shown the
livehest interest in the public schools.
Now when he has amassed a competency
he is prepared to deIote his whole time
and attention to them should he be
elected.
The office is one which will require a good
business head in addition to the other quail
i6cations. LocatioEs must be made OF the
public lands for the support OF tho public
schools, and no man is better qualified for
this work that is Mr.. Quinn. Besides,
whoever is elected must devote all of his
time TO the office for the next two years
at least. The public school system is Mr.
Qulnn's hobby. and he will willingly
bring to bear on it all of his years of
study and experience and give TO it his
entire time, which no money could buy
for any other purpose.
The matter OF public schools should
not be too closely allied with politics.
Qualification alone should be considered
In the selection OF a man for this office,
and if qualification is considered, Mr..
Quinn will be elected by a ~tremeadous
majority because Of his pre-eminent fitness
for the place.

MR.. BECKS CANDIDACY

After a careful study OF everything that
can be said in favor Of Mr.. Clark, the
Republican candidate for congress, we
fail to End an adequate basis for the as
sumption that he would make a more val
liable congressman than his Democratic
competitor. Mr.. Beck. Congressman in
their first term, as a rule, are Of little
value to their constituents. 1t takes
them pretty nearly the whole of the term
To become acquainted with the routine OF
public business as it is transacted in con-
gress and they devote tn eir spare time to
getting acquainted.
A great deal has been said about Mr..
Clark's ability as a public speaker.
While We have heard Mr.. Clark upon
several important occasions and cannot
truthfully say that he did his reputation
justice, still we are willing to concede that
he is = very far speaker, although BY no
means to be ranked with such a speaker
as K. II. Harvey, OF Douglas, the Demo-
cratic candidate for district judge. But
allowing that he is a speaker of great tai
ent nobody will assert that he will elect
rify congress during his first term.
The point which we wish to make in favor
Of Mr.. Beck's candidacy is hat he has the
great advantage Of influential acquaintance
ship at Washington now. He livedlhere for
a number of years before omIng to Wy
oming. HIS fathers great prestige placed
him on terms OF intimacy with the Leading
men at the national capital. The Sun
has not denied that it wa Beck's inlu-
ence which prevented the abandonment
Of Fort Mckinney. a matter of more
moment in johnson and Sheridan coun-
ties than anything which could possibly
happen. Mr.. Beck has lived in Ryom-
ing for about ten years. During that
time be has completely identified himself
its people In Buffalo he has built a
-four mill and established water works
and an electric light plant-at a point, it
should be remembered, $50 miles from
any railroad.
Young, ambitious and capable. with a
thorough knowledge of the needs Of his
constituents and with an influential ac-
q-uaintanoeship in Washington. we feel
that Geo. T. Beck goes before the people
with = strong case in his favor and the
voten can make no mistake in seudics
him 70 congressional halls.

is for $l25, aud to its correctness Mr..
Young affixed the usual oath. Il is a
noticeable fact that no attempt was made
to impeach the bill on the testimony OF
the county commissioners or the county
clerk who held Office at that time. Mr..
n was sheriff for four years. Dur
Jog that time we have it upon the best
authority that no bill presented by him
was ever rejected or reduced in amount
If the bill under consideration was unjust
or e1tortionate, it should never have been
allowed by the county commissioners. 1t
is their duty to pass upon the business Of
every claim presented to them, and If
they are not satisfied in regard to every
feature of the claim, they may lay it over
tor future consideration and take ample
time to satisfy themselves. That they
were satisfied that Mr.. Young's claim
was a just one is proven by the tact that
it was paid without question. We sub
NIT that the county commissioners who
first passed upon the business of the claim
had better means Of satisfying themselves
and more positive assurance that it was
all riRht than ever the editor of the Sun
could have from a hastY examination
made four years after the date Of the
transaction.

4 REASONABLE STATEMENT

1t is said that the amusement in the
western end Of the state over the Suns
alleged humiliation OF Joseph Young.
who made the affidavit that Governor
Warren wanted HIM to pack a jury to
convict the Rock Spring miners, is so
widespread that the mere sight of the
Sun is sufficient now to excite a deep and
general smile OF in~credulity. Az attempt
is made to impeach Mr.. Young by the
publication of a bill dated Dec. 8, 1886,
which he, as sheriff, presented to the
board Of county commissioners. Tho bill

IT may be in c%onsonance with his own
ideas of propriety, but in the Judgment OF
the people it scarcely COMFORTS with the
dignity which should attach to the presi-
dency of the state university ts have
John W. Hoyt, A. NJ, NJ. D. I'LL. D..
running around the country making
political speeches. The people pay HIM
to teach school at Laramie. So far his
success in this direction has not been pro
found, and there has been more tolera-
ton shown him than he deserves. The
people will have a little more respect for
him when he comes in out of sage brush
and attends to his business, leaving prac.
teal politics for the politicians.

WHILE HE HAS MS HAND IN.

WHILE He HAS HIS HAND IN.
Isn't it rather strange that Governor
Francis Il. Warren should write a letter
for publication denying charges which
have never been publicly made against
HIM. while at the same time he has per
sistently RETAINED from denying or giving
public vent 10 any expression Whatever
regarding other charges, OF at least equal
Importance, which have been publicly
made and frequently reiterated against
him2-LEADER.
Will THE LEADER please explain the
above and state what letters Governor
Warren has written for publication. We
don't know OF ny.-The Sun.
We had specific reference, as the Sun
well knows, to the governors letter dated
Aug, 81, which begins with this asser-
toni II am sufficiently recovered from
my illness to have referred to me your let
ter of the 18th inst" That letter is nom
inally addressed to a gentleman in Raw
Inns, but was published simultaneously
last Friday in two Laramie papers and in
Cheyenne. 1t is dated the 9th and was
published the Goth, not only in news
papers but 10 pamphlet form, proving
couclusively that publicity was not given
to it by the gentlemen to whom it was ad-
dressed.
As the governor is therefore in the
mood for letter writing he might explain
to the people whether or not In the year
and nine months when he was last Cover
nor il he did not dra- 80. 967. 81. princi
pally from the territory, and if he did not
what proportion did he draw
If be contributed $500 to Catholic in
situations what was the amount of his
mercantile ~company's bill for furnishing
the same2
Whether during the eight years that he
and his partner we're treasurer that he
did not receive benefits from the money
he handled to the amount of $50, 3l7. 81
and additional perquisites as governor
which brought the amount up to SlO4,
Ola Sc? II he didn't receive these
amounts what amounts did he actually re.
ceive?
Is it true, as the Douglas Budget al
leges, that the Warren 1--we Stock COM
pany has $4,000 sheep in Laramie county
while it is only assessed for %, 91G2
Satisfactory answers to these questions
might furnish the governor ample scope
for the exercise of his ingenuity.

"Ailcock's Porus Plasters are undnubt.

featured. | make this assertion 10 the

Of their wonderful virtues. Suffering
from severe pains in my side and chest,
contracted through n severe cold, I ap-
piled a couple of Allcock's Porus Plas-
tiers upon going to bed at night. The
result was, that in eight hours after ap-
plying them l could get up and walk
about with very little pain or ache, when
the night previous / could neither get up

following query IN the last issue of the
Saratoga Lyrc
Will Mr.. Beck please tell US Just how
much the members of the last territorial
council reduced their own salaries when
they were practicing economy
Now, there's a head for you. Won't
somebody please answer this interesting
young lady's question? Won't somebody
please tell her that the legislative salaries
Ia all territories are fixed and paid by the
federal, and not the territorial govern
ment2 And won't somebody please
whisper into the coral ear of Gertrude Of
Wyoming that when she attempts to set
herself up as a critic she ought to at
least know what she is talking about?

PLAIN FACTS PLAINLY SPOKEN.

At one time n discussion OF the secret vice
medical worksof but a few years ago would
hardly mention It. 4.
To-day the physician Is of a'dInerent opin-
Ion; he Is aware that 1t is his duty-disagree-
able as IL may be-to handle this matter with
out gloves and speak plainly about Il and
him for doing so.
To all those engaged in this dangerous prac-
ice 1 would say, nrst OF all, stop IL at once.
Make every possible effort to do so; but II you
Ihil, II your nervous system Is already too
much shattered, and, consequently, your will
power broken, take some nerve tonic to aid
you In your effort. Having freed yourself
nom the habit, 1 would further counsel you
TO go through a regular course OF treatment,
for 1t is a great mistake to suppose that any
give himself up To this fascinating but dang
erous excitement without suffering from some
OF its eyil consequences at some future time.
The number OF young men who are inoapaci-
tated to Ill the duties enjoined by wedlock Is
aahIafsrmIngdy large s and IN most , such cases les
traced TO the practice OF selfabuse, which had
been abandoned years before, Indeed, a few
months practice OF this habit is often suffi-
Client to Induce spermatorrh1a in later years,
and have many of such cases under treat
ment at the present day.
YOUNG nIEN
Who may be suffering from the effects of
youthful follies or indiscretions, will do well
10 avail themselves Of this the greatest boon
ever laid at the altar OF suffering h 1manity.
DR. WAGNER will guarantee 10 forfeit nve
hundred dollars for every case OF seminal
weakness or private disease OF any kind or
character which he undertakes and fails to
cure.
NIddd1o -AEed Mon
There are many the age OF thirty to sixty
who are troubled with too frequent evacua-
lions OF the bladder often accompanied by a
slight smarting. or burning sensation and a
weakening of the system in a manner the pa
tient cannot account for. On examining the
urinary deposits a ropy sediment will often
be found, and often small particles of alDu-
men will appear, or the color will be a thin,
or milkish hue, again changing TO a dark and
turbid appearance. There are many men
who die of this difficulty ignorant OF the
cause. DIR. Wagner will warrant a cure in
all such cases md a healthy restoration Of
the genitourinary organ. Consultation free.

CHRONIC COMPLAINTS REQUIRE

questions which enables him to send medl-
