Not long after an Indiana man
died from the effects of putting FIVE
packages of cigal cites Gay his body
turned perfectly green. Physicians
say 1t was due to nicotine and arsen-
zeal poison. When q man has no

FIVE packages of the deadly cigarette
per day it is perfectly reasonable to
expect to find his body green after
death. No man who was not excess
lively green by nature would be

IAN 4ND L4VENTATYONS

The fact that there has never been a
patent for a Iimber-culture claim issued to
a Wyoming claimant is sufficient to prove
the worthlessness Of the law So Tar as our
settlers are concerned. The lamentations
over its repeal are ridiculous to a superla-
tive degree -SuHdIyS Sun.
We have never heard any heartrendiug
lamentations over the repeal of the tim
bcr-culture law, even though the Sun Is
mistaken that no timber-culture claims
have ever been proven up in Wyoming.
The government will certainly be the
great loser by the repeal Of the act for it
has received thousands OF dollars in the
shape OF fees for such filings aud the land
afterward either reverted to the govern
ment or was taken up under a different
fling, in which event the government re-
ceived a second fee. The timber culture
law 10 Wyoming was valuable manly be.
cause it gave an opportunity to a settler
who had fled on a pre- emption claim TO
hold an adjoining 100 acres Of land until
such time as he could prove up on his pre-
emption and then change his timber
culture to a homestead.
The repeal Of the presumption act is by
far the most damaging feature Of the new
land bill. This was in reality worth more
than all the others put together for the
purpose Of practical settlement Of the
public domain, and the inslneerity of the
Republican press 10 discussing this mat
ter cannot be better illustrated than By
comparing their attitude now with that
Of Iss4-5, when it was feared that con-
gress would repeal the timber culture, pre-
emption and desert laws. In discussing
the matter, the Sun INDUCES in down
right knavery, 1t says, The element in
congress which was adverse to the inter
ests Of the West, aud desired to make the
acquisition Of public land impossible, has
for many years striveu to have the pre-
emption and TIMBER culture acts repealed.
They finally succeeded, and the measure
passed both houses Of congress while
Wyoming was on the eve OF statehood
and without representation in either
house.
Inc lAN was pAAStu huu Itctlftu Anb
signature Of President Harrison on the
very last day Of the last session Of CON
gress. Wyoming was then represented IN
congress by Joseph NJ Carey aud Francis
f. Warren Of Cheyenne. United States
senators, and Clarence D. Clark of Evans
ton, congressman. Not one of these gen
tiemen expressed a single objection to the
passage of the bill and some of them
worked hard to get it through and have it
aiterEard signed by the president TIE
Sun may be INDUCING in poetic license
when it says Wyoming was without rep
resentatiou in congress" when the timber
culture and pre-empuon acts were re-
pealed. Indeed it would have been bet
ter if it had. for representatives that
work directly against the interests OF their
own constituency as these three men have
done are worse than no representatives. at

A HOPEFUL

1t looked very much yesterday as
though the good times had come again.
In FIVE years there has not been such a
cordial, harmonious and hopeful gather
ing OF stockmen in Cheyenne. The feel
ing was everywhere that the rebound
from bedrock prices had come to stay aud
that this years financial receipts would at
least approximate old time proportions.
There was cordiality in the air and while
there were many faces missing that were
once familiar, the veteran stookmen were
out 10 good force end made their presence
known by hearty greetings to friends and
associates.
No one any longer doubts that the
worst DAYS Of the cattle business are over
The tremendous reserve stock of c~it;ie,
which could always be drawn from sufi-
GENTLY to break the market, has now dis
appeared or has so dwiudled that 1t may
be LETT out Of practical calculations. Com
pared with the corresponding three
months of last year, 1901 900 less cattle
have been marketed in Chicago during
the past three months than the first three
OF last year. This practically take. out OF
consideration the immense reserve supply
of cattle which has so frequently destroyed
conservative calculations aud knocked the
bottom out of prices.
The stockmen visiting Cheyenne can
also see here evidences of returning conf

some extremely tine structures IN process

Union Pacific shops, which were objects of

and believe that while business has been
dull here the turning point has been
reached and the present outlook for the
own is at least as encouraging as it Is for
the stock business.

Kept up
for years-the offer that's made by
the proprietors of DIR. Sage's Ca
tarrh Remedy. It's addressed to
you, if you have Catarrh. It's a
reward Of $500, if they can't cure
you, no matter how bad your case,
or of how long standing-an offer
that's made in good faith by re-
sponsible men.
Think what it means Absolute
confidence in their Remedy, or they
couldn't afford to take the risk A
long record of perfect and perma-
nent cures of the worst cases-or
they couldn't have faith in it. 1t
means no more catarrh-or $500.
If you fail TO be cured, you won't
fail to be paid.
But perhaps you won't believe it.
Then there's another eason for try
ing it. Show hat you can't be
cured, and you'll get $500. It's a
plain business offer. The makers
of DR.. Sage's Catarrh Remedy will
pay you that amount if they can't
cure you. They know that they
can-you think that they can't. If
they're wrong, you get the cash. If
you're wrong, you're rid of catarrh.
