DISFRANCHISED.
An Election Law Section That Was
Supposed to Be In Force.


A rather startling discovery with reia-
ton to the new election law has been
made.
There is absolutely no provision by
which an elector who has failed or neg
lected to register can vote, No matter
what the circumstances, an eIector not
listed by the registrars is deprived Of his
or her vote.
1t is well remembered by many legis-
lators that the bill as amended by the
conference committee stipulated that a
person unable by illness or absence to reg
lister might vote after making satisfactory
proof of facts. A section to this effect
was in the bill as signed by the governor,
as returned to the house and council for
correction, as to time OF taking effect.
Still the law DISTINGUISHES any elector
not registered.
No one seems to know how 1t hap
pened. Several members of the last as
sembly express amazement over the mys-
FERROUS omission. I. B. Adams, who
with other house members, made a fight
for this provision, would not believe that
the act was without it until he consulted
the original at the secretary's office.

The American Wool Reporter says that
there is a very prevalent belief in a better
wool market the coming autumn. cannot
be doubted, and with an easier money
market, it would not be surprising If a
moderate speculative movement in wool
should arise at n time. Our money
market has been exceedingly stagnant Of
late, and knowing that large quantities Of
wool paper mature in October, wool mer-
chants have been generally ready sellers,
though the manner in which manufac-
turers have been bounding them and
crowding them for lower prices of late, has
rendered some dealers Indifferent about
doing business until the market acquires
more genuine strength. With an easier
money market, the one per cent addi-
tional interest required to carry wool from
now to October, could be readily offset by
such an improvement in prices as usually
occurs in wool in the autumn months.
Manufacturers are generally carrying
light stocks of domestic wool, and are
sampling stocks SO frequently that if they
were given time they would take away
the entire stock of wool in Boston by
sample.

WATSON AND LOCKWOOD.
Bill McCoy's Two Friends Sent Il
Joliet Prison..

When Bill Mccoy was convicted here
for the murder OF Chas. Gum, at Lusk,
two young cowboy gamblers, Phil Watson
and Jesse Lockwood, were tried as acces-
sories to the crime and were acquitted.
The vindicated men went to the new
town OF Casper, where Watson was made
city marshal, while Lockwood opened a
f~ree-and-easy, tending bar and dealing
mont himself. Soon after the advent OF
the worthless in Natrona county, horse
thieves began to operate extensively.
They ran animals from all over Northern
Wyoming to Colorado, Utah, Nebraska,
New Mexico and Kansas. Officers de-
tailed to stop the wholesale thieving
quickly discovered that Watson and
Lockwood we're in league with leaders of
the gang. When n descent was made on
the thieves, a Crook county deputy drew
Bill McCoy's friends. They were tried
at Sundance last week, and are now in
Joliet, Watson for six and Lockwood for
four years.

ON THE SQUARE,
wallace q Anderson's eircus Full
filled Every Promise.

Barnam and Forepaugh and Sells and
Robinson have in other seasons visited
Cheyenne with their big tented attractions.
but of all circuses ever here none gave
shows better than witnessed by the 5000
people who ~patronized Wallace & Ander-
sons yesterday. A stunning parade was
given in the morning. In line were many
novelties and everything bright and
clean. Tho 1855 horses ridden. driven
and led were beauties, EVERY one. The
bands were fine and the caliope a dandy.
About 5000 people attended the after.
noon show. The menagerie is a great
one. The lion and tiger dens, set in the
center. were great attractions. The big
cats and dogs were large. perfect repre-
sentatives of their respective species. All
the animals were sleek and lively. The
sloth bear was a peculiar specimen.
Every ring act was a feature. but the
slack rope, menage, boy and barrel and
leaping trapeze performances merit special
mention.
All employees were courteous. The con
cert was good and the Size show excel
lent.
The parachute jump by plucky Ed
Palmer, after the day show, was q com
plete success, and the first ever witnessed
here. 1t is a thrilling performance. The
balloon was about three times the height
OF the capitol when the young man made
his perilous leap. The big umbrella
opened slowly and Palmer came like a
shot for a hundred feet. There he slowed
up a bit, but landed with a jolt about 500
yards from the starting point. The as.
cension and jump pleased the people i'm
mensely.
Wallace & Anderson are good people
and have a fine staff. AT the head of the
press department Is the veteran Willis
Cobb. an urbane gentleman of keen
shrewdness and graceful skill in his chosen
profession. Cobb is to have an elegant
private car, a luxury and convenience
enjoyed by no other press agent on the
road.
Fully 6,000 people attended last nights
performance. Every inch of seating was
occupied.

Laramie Republican: The strike at the

supposed. The new ore assays from
81, 400 10 $1,000 to the ton. New
machinery has been ordered for the mine
and 1t will be extensively developed. Late
reports from the Keystone are to the
effect that everything is running along
smoothly. The mine is now not only
paying expenses, but giving its owners a
handsome profit.
