'Fesses UP, Like q Little Man.

From the Guter1e Capital
During the late campaign the State
Capital said some hard things about a
few of the opposition candidates. We
were entirely off. The people have
proven this. They have said we lied
and we gracefully acknowledge it, All
the men elected are gentlemen, scholars
and good citizens. The heat of the
campaign threw US off our base. We
assure you that this will not occur again
until the next election. In the mean
time every demo-Alliance Office holder
will find this paper frank and fair, and
always ready to ''give the devil his due. s"
We always know when we are licked. s"
1t takes good one to do it and we honor
him accordingly.

UP TO THE BREAK.
The S~cafioIdIng AT a Height 10 Allow
Work on the Damaged Stack.

Work on the soaffolding surrounding
the eastern smokestack in the Union
Pacific yards was prosecuted very Wig
%OrouslY all day yesterday, Notwithstanding
the cold and windy weather. 1t was COM
pleted to the break in the stack, which
was found to be ninety nine feet three
inches from the ground.
THIS morning the work Of bracing the
stack will be commenced. The purpose
OF TINS is to render it secnre while the
scaffolding is extended to the top. When
the work of bracing Is finished the
scaffoldinG will be completed and the
mass Of iron forming the cap will be re-
moved to the ground. A force of men
will then be set at work removing the
brick down to the point of the break.
The stack will then be leveled and the car
lifted up and placed upon it. 1t is believed
that the stack will her be sufficiently
tall, being 100 feet instead of 1875.
Superintendent O'Hearne has a theory
in regard to the break which seem:
plausible. The stack really consists Of al
inner and outer stack, just enough spac,
being left between them to permit of
free circulation OF air. The heat expand
the inner stack. but the outer one beinl
exposed to the air cannot expand cor
respondinglY and the result is that i

TWO WAITS ADRIFT.
A Couple of Unfortunate Children
En- Route to Kansas.
They Start on the Journey Without
Friends or Money,
But Are Now Being Literally
Provided for.

Among the passengers on the cheyenne
& Northern train, which arrived here
about o'clock this morning. were a
couple of tired little children who bad
had a rather strange experience. The
older is a boy of 7; the younger a girl OF
s. Both we're sturdy looking little folks
and while commonly clad suffered nothing
from the cold.
1t seems that when the Northwestern
train left Douglas for Orrin junction yes
terday afternoon a Mrs. Fisher, employed
as a servant in the Valley house. put her
two little children aboard the train and
asked a Mrs. Ford. who was on her way
here en- route to Hanna. to look out Tor
them as they were being sent to the
woman's home in Lewis, Kas. The
children had neither money nor food with
them aud the woman was at a loss to
know what to do. Conductor Nash
t~elegraphed Superintendent Wurtele the
circumstance when he found the children
aboard and the city marshal here was
uotiutu W take care OF tuem- OInceT
ingalls, was at the train to meet them but
other arrangements had already been
made.
Among the passengers on the train was
w. G. Irvine, manager of the ORslalla
Cattle company. He telegraphed the
manage of the Valley house to send
Mrs. Fisher down on the train this after
noon and he would pay her expenses. He
also induced Mrs. Ford to remain over
here today and look after the children.
He will provide Mrs. Fisher and her
children with the means to reach her
home in Kansas.
The party was taken to the Inter Ocean
last night. The little girl accepted every
thing as a matter of course. but the boy
had missed his mother very much and at
times could scarcely be comforted.
Mrs. Fisher is said to be a woman who
knows little of the ways of the world.
She was deserted by her husband about
nine months ago. She took it for granted
that her children would reach Kansas
safely if they were got aboard the train,
even though they did not have money to
pay their fare or for their meals.
As it turned out, she was correct In her

NATIONAL BANKS.
Small Percentage of Failures Since
Their ORGANIZATION

The report of Il. S. Lacey, comptroller
OF the currency, recently issued. is inter
0sting as showing the greater safety of
banks working under the national act.
Since the organization of the system, now
t~wenty-nine years In operNt>en. a GAS asso.
Citations have been formed, of which only
l64, or about 81 per cent, have become
iDsolvent. Thus far this has involved a
loss of only IS, OS7, 944 by the failure of
national banks in the period named. Dur
ing the three years ending in 1879 2I0
state and private banks failed, involving a
total loss of $50, G,GGl.
Blu: the comptroller is no better salts
fed. evcn with this favorable showing,
than are the public who have seen this
large total of TWENTY-FIVE banks fail in the
course of a single year against a total of
1879 during the previous twenty. eight
years. Accordingly he recommends IN
the plainest terms hat the system pro-
vidIng for examinations should be made
more stringent and at the same time more
effective by the appointment OF three
supervising examiners and OF assistant
examiners for the districts in which the
larger and more important cities are in
cluded.

that to say that Jackson was not a great
general did not imply hat he was not an
able man and a good man, but only re-
ferred to his ability as a military genius.
After a spicy debate, lasting tor some time,
the presiding officer decided the question
in favor Of the affirmative. This decision
was announced amid great applause.

S'HE,S AFTER T.
Marshal Rankin on h Trail of IA
stage Robber

The departure of United States Mar
shall Rankin for Rawlins Monday has a
particular Significance. In the announce
ment that the marshal has gone to Raw
Inns is concealed a duty which is a stern
and dangerous one, yet at the same time
an exciting and romantic one. When the
marshal, who carries an elegant and trusty
As caliber Colts in one of his hip pockets
and the authority OF his Uncle Sam in
the other, was asked By a LEADER re-
porter why he was going to Rawlins his
reply was, Il am going away on BUSH
ness
In that short and brusque reply was a
world Of meaning. Any one who had the
least idea of the situation would have
jumped to the conclusion at once. He
was after a certain gentleman who is
known throughout the state by the
euphonious and significant sobreauet of
"Rattlesnake jim the anti-law, stage
robber, murderer, all of which titles he
has earned by his unrivalled bravery
among his road agent comrades.
Some time ago the stage near Rawlins
was once more overhauled but that time
the driver was prepared, to paraphrase
Secretary Tracy, Tor any emergency"
and Rattlesnake Jim was for the first
time doomed to disa ppointment. The
driver knew who the leader of the bandits
was, however, and informed the proper
officials of what had happened.
Since then the officers have been about
AS non-communicative as the stage driver
was. but have been saving wood all the
same. Net many moons ago Marsha
JEFF Carr made a trip to what is known
in the northern section of the country as
Brown Hale" This was a rendezvou,
for "Rattlesuake jim" and his band
Marshal Carr searched the place thor.
ouGhly, but "Rattlesnake jim" it i.
said, can smell an officer forty-seveu
miles, it doesn't make any difference how
hard the wind blows, and he had there
fore disappeared.
Mr.. Carr came home, and after discuss
ing the subject it was decided that Mr..
Rankin should try his luck. and when
that gentleman comes home it need not
be any great surprise to people who know
both parties to hear that "Rattlesnake
jim has been arrested.

An Electric Lighted rown.


When our enterprising citizen, w. A.
Wallace, first commenced talking electric
lights for Lander, many thought lightly
of the project, and intimatcd that the
idea was premature, but Mr.. Wallace
was not made OF the stuff to quail before
difficulties. So in due season a stock
company was organized, a franchise OBJ
tanned, a contract made with the town
council for a certain number OF lights
and o one with the Edison Electric
Light Company, of Denver, to put in the
plant. Monday night the light was
turned on and proved a brilliant success,
the street lamps especially, but there
was no discomfort on light anywhere.

County Treasurer W. T. Snaffer's
patent consists of a line of railway con-
sistiug of a single elevated rail, the car
to swing beneath the rail and the wheels
to be at the top. Upon each side will be
an apartment arranged after the name
OF ordinary coaohen. The larger the
wheel, the greater the speed that can be
attained, and by Mr.. Skaters plan there
is no limit to the size of the wheel which
is not the case in the present railroad cars,
the wheels of which arc as large as it is
dared to make them at the present puage.
Absolute safety is another feature of Mr..
Skaters cars. The design is to utilize
the style OF car and track more especially
for passengers and express business, as
there is practically no limit to the speed
which can be attained.
