A Chapter on Medicine.

Formerly it was considered
that the more nauseous the
draught, the worse it tasted, and
the worse it smelled, the better
it was as a medicine. Dried
toads, pulverized to a powder,
were long the popular pauacea
for fevers. Another was a live
mole baked in an oven. Snakes
are still given by the Chinese.
The old adage, "the hair of the
dog is good for the bite" was
often construed literally, great
ly, we fancy, to the patients
digust. The idea was that sick
ness was a distinct something
produced by witches, and it
took something terrible to drive
him away. Even in our fat hers
cay, what terrible doses they
used to give of julap and Gallo
mel, and how they used to pop
out the lancet on all occasions
and pop it into everybody pret-
ty nearly. The idea still holds
in the heads Of some people
that medicine is mostly poison.
os what is the same thing, in
order to be efficacious. it ought
to be poison So far is this
from the facts, that the best
medical authority now pre-
scribes the simplest remedies.
liz is the peculiar merit of Reid's
German Cough and Kidney
Cure that it contains no poisons
whatever. 1t is absolutely in
nocuous, and yet it is so certain
that it will not only cure the
worst cold, but all disea ses aris-
ing from a cold of any nature
whatever. The dose can be
graduated to the patient and to
the severity of the stack. 1t
actr at once, so that when a
child is suffering in the agonies
OF the Group, it can be given the
Cure until relieved, and when
this is once effected. there is no
danger Of a return of tee malady
that night.

TIE KIADNCr MAr1ER

The Sun is making a great uDroar be-
cause. as 1t alleges. Governor Baxter de-
clined to sign the citizens guarantee for
the construction OF the viaduct. As to
whether Governor Baxter did or did not
decline to sHix his signature to the docu-
ment We know nothing. but we do know
that great popular dissatisfaction exists
regarding this same matter, and for this
reason: The north end of the proposed
viaduct terminates in two approaches,
both of which are on the south
side of the Burlington railroad track.
The consequence Is that the viaduct
will terminate between the Burlington
and Union Pacific tracks, thus rendering
the east approach absolutely valueless.
If the Burlington ever enlarges its mesh
Of railroad tracks, as it undoubtedly will
and that very soon, the value of the via
duct as a means of communication be-
tween the North and South sides may be
partially destroyed. We believe the via
duct should cover all railroad tracks 10
secure from it the greatest measure of
public benefit.
Anything short OF this will prove more
or less of an architectural abortion.

TWO CONTRASTING PICTURES

A few days ago we published the fol.
lowing quotation from the editorial col
umns of the Sun:
The company nov contemplates a with
drawal of the Cheyenne office, and III
this event Mr.. Baxter will probably go
to Denver, as be has no property interests
Of his own in the state.
To this THE LEADER replied as fol.
lows;
As to the possibility of Mr.. Baxter re-.
moving to Denver, that is too palpably
silly to even merit a reply. As to Mr..
Baxter having no property interests in
the state, the Laramie county tax roll for
1890 shows that he ia assessed for 3d.
$50 worth Of land in the county and two
pieces of residence property in Cheyenne
which are assessed at IS, 600. ANY taxpay-
er may satisfy himself as to the correct
ness of these figures by calling at the
county clerks Office.
Since the foregoing was published last
Sunday morning the Sun has never con.
descended to make any reference to the
matter.
On the same day 10 quoting from the
Sun regarding THE palpable ~misrepresen-
ton by that paper of Rev. Father NJ
gent, we used the following quotation
from the Suns editorial columns:

THE CTHER SIDE OF n.


We republish an article from the Sun
Of March IS. 1890, relating to Warren's
veto of the Mckinney bill, that is good
reading at this particular time. 1t is evil
dence OF the fact that the laborinR man
has a friend in Governor Warren. - Yes
tTddy'S Sun.
The. San has sprung this particular
veto with a great deal OF regularity dur
ing the present campaign. 1t seems to
be the sheet anchor upon which it hangs its
homes of bamboozling the voters into the
belief that f. T. Warren's days and
nights are devoted to considerations of
bow he can best ameliorate the condition
of the working people.
Place alongside OF this veto, which was
penned for purely political purposes, the
united testimony of the small ranch own
ers whose ranches have been swallowed
up in the capaciJus nav of the giant
corporation known as the Warren Live
Stock company. Take the testimony Of
all of the settlers who have been strug-
CLING for a foOthold within a radius OF
many miles OF the vast fenced posses
sions Of the governor 5 company. Listen
TO what they nave to say concerning the
depredatious of the thousands upon
thousands Of sheep which render
d~esolate the unienced public pastures
Of tie surrounding country. Hear them
tell Of how their cattle have been driven
forth from their own little ranges by
Warren's men and left to stray at will in
a neighboring state. Pause while they
tell Of orders given by this same Governor
Warren to prevent any Of these abused
settlers from staying overnight at any Of
his numerous sheep ranches an order
PROMULGATED especially to strike the IN
fortunate settlers whose cattle have been
driven out OF the country by Waren's
herders. Let them tell of the expense
and trouble they have been to in collect .
ing their little herds and let them tell you
how a governor OF Wyoming has scat
tered his focks like an invading army
over the entire surrounding country until
every vestige OF vegetation has disap-
appeared aud the small rauchman Is
driven to bis wits cad to secure susten-
ance for his little bunch OF stock.
Then let the subservient press aud
heuchmen tell you Of bis public spirit, his
untiring efforts IN behalf Of pubic good
aud publish to the world the one eonsecu-
uve charity unearthed and credited to
him with loud acclaim. Then let the
working people take the other side of the
story. Let them reflect for a moment
upon the time when be built the business
blocks for which he has been given So
much credit. Let them remember that
the contractors and builders were Denver
men, and that the men who did the work
were imported from Denver 10 do it, while
they may have lain idle so far as he was
concerned. Let them look at the records
of the Knights Of Labor covering this
very same period and let them there fnd
"a black and white the honest indignation
expressed by the w~orkingmen upon tbi
verE samesubject.
Let them take his gas company monopo
