SOME things we know by direct action
of our senses; and yet the great mass
of our knowledge must be that of faith.
We believe in vastly more things than
we can see, and more than are matters
of our own experience.

THE A ELECTION.

To be legal and regular, so that a sub
mission to the results may be peaceably
acquiesced in, it is important to the public
that it should be in compliance with law.
Looking to this end. we would submit the
following suggestions:
Let us first emphasize this fundamental
maxim of law. In the organized terri
tories the right to hold elections depends
entirely upon the laws of congress, or Of
the territorial Legislature. and an election
held in any state, without the sanction of
statutory or constitutional provisions
would be entirely without validity, not
withstanding a unanimous vote should be
cast in favor Of any proposed measure. >
Again, There is no inherent reserved
power in the people to hold elections, they
are therefore OF no effect unless by virtue
of some law, in force, when the election is
held"
Now. the act Of congress which will ad-
init Wyoming as a state, provides, Sec.
81. That from and after the admission
of said state into the Union, in pursu-
ance OF this act, the laws of the United
States. not locally inapplicable. shall have
the same force and effect within the state
as elsewhere within the United States,
and all laws in force made by said terri
tory, at the time of its admission into the
Union, until amended or repealed. shall
be in force in said state, except as modi-
fed or changed by this act. or by the con-
stitution OF the state.
The election law, chapter 80, session
laws 1890, known as the Hebard law,
went into force on the first day Of July.
Therefore the state election will have to
be held under and by virtue and in com
pliance with its provisions. Now. this
act provides among other things (sec. o.
that the boards Of county commissioners
of the several counties at their regular
July meeting shall divide their respective
counties into convenient election dis
tricts.
Section Is provides that the county
commissioner at the same meeting shall
appoint two registry agents. of different
political faith. for each election district in
the county.
Section Sc provides that they shall at
the same meeting appoint three capable
and discreet persons to act as judges OF
elections at each polling precinct, In the
several election districts, and it is further
provided that not more than two Of the
judges of election for any precinct shall
be of the same political faith.
As this law must control in the state
election, it is most expedient that these
provisions shall be obeyed by the com-
missioners. "
The Attention 0t-thae9u1ty SoYRis--
sIonefs now in session is particularly
called TO this matter. 1t is most essential
and vital that we have all the election
machinery regularly set in motion, and
that the Hebard law be strictly complied
with, including also the provision for
registration.

popular is Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, a
preventive that has for over a third Of a
century afforded reliable protection to
those whom experience in the futility of

intermittent or remittent, miasmatic fe-

as long drawn out as was the acquisition
OF territorial honors, achieved just TWEEN
ty-two years ago the 25th of this present

pected that having celebrated two steps
in the progress toward statehood the
people should again howl themselves

in Washington and in all probability will
sign the statehood bill today.

THE HAPPY SMITHS.
A Jolly Outing and Games---
Athletics and Other
Sports.

The Enoch ]. Smith Association had its
annual outing yesterday. A delightful
day had been selected for the event, and
as the weather was charming 1t
is needless to add that the affair
was an unqualified success. Sixty
jolly boys participated in the event.
They were conveyed to the grove
on the steamboat Hazel Kirke, and
reached their destination at noon. Six
hours were spent in merry-making and
feastlng, and although there was an
abundance of wet goods the participants
refrained from over indulgence and re.
turged at nine O'Clock as steady as a band
of prohibitionists.
All kinds of sport and pranks were in
dulged in, and they were as active and
happy as q class of school boys who were
enjoying the brief respite during the
school session. or course they had a ball
game. The captains were Billie Meschutt
and Frank McNamee. Tom Cummings
twirled for his side, and had any of the
League or Brotherhood been
present he would not have been driving a
pen today except to afix his sig
nature to a contract to pitch
for one of the leading teams:
the sphere and the curves would nave as
tonished a n expert finger billiardist.
The rival batsmen could not hit the ball,
M the only runs they obtained were do
mated by the generous team to offset the
very liberal contributions of Meschutt's
men. Athletic games were a
feature. No prize winner was permitted
to compete in any other event, and this
stopped any star athlete from securing a
harvest. There were nine events, and the
first prize in each was a pretty gold
medal. The athletics opened with the
fat mems race, for members, in which
Frank Casey had distanced the field.
The 100 yards dash for members fol-
lowed. Eddie Whalen reached the tape
first. The $50 yards run for members was
won by Eugene Fitzgerald. The 220 yards
run for members was won by Robert
Dickson in a driving finish. There
were five open events. D.. Manning
won the medal in the 100 yards dash, John
Cummings captured the badge in the 140
yards sprint, Lew Bettcher outfooted a
large field in the $50 yards race. Tom Du-
senbery WAS the ~fieetest of the unners
who started in the 220 yards race and
the amusing shoe race was won by Police
man Enoch Rickerich.
The following is the official score of the
game. OF course the figures are noa ques-
toned, although some have the very err
roneous opinion that q least three hun
bred run were scored:-

Notes.

Reilly Is training hard for his meeting
with Wilson, which will take place
shortly.
The Valencia Boat Club will have a la
dies reception in it's new boat house next
Saturday.
The Orange A. g. and the Mystic Boat
Club will probably amalgamate.
The Eureka Gun Club will have its
prize shoot ut live birds and blue rocks at
Marion this afternoon.
Jack Dempsey will limit his battles to
men in his class. He will not fight above
154 pounds. and consequently will not
meet Jack Burke, who cannot get below
100. Dempsey may meet P%ritchard or
Toff Wall in England, or the California
A. G. may ham, up a purse large enough
to induce the clever Englishmen to cross
the Atlantic.
The New Orleans talent are eager TO
match Fitzsimmons against Dempsey.
The latter has written that he is willing
if the purse is large enough and he can
secure an outside bet of 81, 500.
TIL Matagorda lilly, her owner. and
also Jockey Farigan were ruled of the
track at Gloucester IN. J.) Yesterday.
The jockey had been warned before the
race, as The betting aroused suspicion.
H. A. Newton, who appeared as the
owner of the filly, declared that w. B.
jennings was TIE owner. 1t was a clear
case of pull despite the warning.
Barney Langtree, of Bayonne, has an
unknown he desires to match against
Johnny Shea, OF that city, for from $500
to 81, 600 a side. His unknown is thought
to be Joe Farrell
