The South SIDE people feel that in the
matter Of public improvement they have
not been rs generously treated as some
other quarters Of the city. This is Of
course largely due to the fact that the
South side has ha no representation in
the council The Democrats have tired
to remedy this evil by bringing forward a
man who has. lived 10 that quarter Of the
city for the past five years, Mr.. U. H.
Ross. He is a man Of unquestioned
ability. a ready debater, a careful business
man and a man Of well established
integrity. He would represent the First
ward with credit to himself aud II the
satisfaction of all of his constituents.
Phil Zehner, Jr., is the Democratic
candidate from the second ward, lie has
lived in Cheyenne for the past nineteen
years and is thoroughly alive to the wants
of the people He stands deservedly
high in tine estimation Of every one who
knows him, and there are probably very
few people IN the ward or city who do
not. Conscientious and bard working,
with a business experience covering many
years, he would make a valuable member
10 the city council and should be elected
Henry Harrington, the Democratic can.
didate IN the third ward, is likewise the
choice Of the people OF the West End
who are most largely Interested IN the
building of the Themes street viaduct
As this Is the main issue in that ward
there is TO doubt of Mr.. Harrington's
election, and it goes without the saying
that he will make an energetic and cipa-
ble man in the council.

Considerable attention has been direct
ed to the American Federation OF
Trades. 1t has great and sweeping aims,
and its founders hope in time to include
in its membership all the trades and la
Dor unions in the United States. The
federation's first object will be to thus
unite such organizations. Then it will
work to establish "self governing unions
of wage workers in every Legitimate oc-
cupaticn" where such unions do not al
ready exist. Finally, it will eudeavor to
influence public opinion through the
platform. the press and legislation, 20

Will Put a Foreign Missionary
In the Field.

At the conclusion of the regular ser
vice at the Presbyterian church Sunday
morning. the pastor, Rev. Alexander
Sprunt presented the question of sup
porting missionary and gave reasons
why he desired this church to be repre-
scented by worker in the foreign field.
He made an eloquent appeal in behalf
Of this object-a cause that is very dear
to his heart and about which he had
long cherished a desire to see carried
into practice-and asked if this congre-
cation would not pledge the support of
one worker in the cause of Christ in
some benighted heather land. There
was hearty response and more than
$500 was pledged in subscriptions.
Several families were not represented
in the congregation Sunday morning
and it is safe to say that the full
amount desired will be forthcoming.

Some Good Advice.

A Western paper gives the carping
kicker little plain talk after this
fashion:
If you are kicker and see the shad-
ows of failure in everything that is
proposed to help the town, for heavens
sake 60 into some secluded canyon and
kick your own shadow on the clay bank,
and thus give the men who are working
to build up the town a chance. ONE
long faced, hollow-eyed, whining kicker
can do more to keep away business
and capital from town than all the
drouths, short crops, chinch bugs, cF-
clones and billiards. combined.
