We still have hopes that this
county will eventually be Democra-
tic. Straws show which way the
wind blows and little things indi-
cate great results. For instance
only girl babies have been born in
Republican families in this town for
some time, while Democratic fam
lilies have been blessed with boys.
We are therefore led to believe that
the DESTINY which shapes our
elds," is on our side.

The good people along the mail
route from Albrights to Laurel Iron
Works, have complained for some
time that they could not get their
county papers till the next week
after they were issued. The trouble
has been with the schedule on that
mail route, going down on Mondays,
Wednesdays and Fridays. AS the
mail goes down from here in the
morning before the papers are out,
they do not reach Albrightsville till
Friday morning, and then after the
mail has left over that route and lay
there then till Monday. The trou-
bic is that the mail routes are gen
orally arranged to suit the conven-
fence of the contractor, who takes
them so low that he has to arrange
to be at nome as much as possible
IN order TO come out on them.
The accommodation of the pa
irons of the offices and the general
public is matter Of secondary i'm
portance, and as no attention much
is paid to it, the carrier afranges
the matter to suit himself. It
should be the duty Of the Postmas-
tiers along the route to look after
these matters and have them ar
ranged 80 as to best accommodate
their patrons. We have been irving
to have something done and think
now that the matter will be ar
ranged all right, as the man who is
carrying it from ReedsyilIe TO IL
brightsyille is going to throw up
the job and the contractor, who
lives at the end of the route, will
probably carry it himself, aud start
ing from home in the morning will
return here in the afternoon. so that
the papers can be sent down same
day they are published.

nj TISING FAKE

There is no town in the West more for
%tunRtely situated at the opening of this
summer season than Is Cheyenne. Its
business houses are all occupied and a de-
sirab!e residence Is unobtainable. In
fact, no residences Of any sort can readily
be secured, and those which are going up
are rented IN advance of their completion.
Rooms IN the blocks are filed to over
flowing, aud the hotels seldom have any
rooms to spare. With this pleasing CON
ditiou of affairs, we have besides the GER
tainty hat from 100 to 800 men (many
Of them with iamilies) will be added to
the shop force. There is now absolute
need for at least 100 extra men in the
COMPLETED shops if the railroad company
intends to keep pace with the masses of
work pillnE up and constantly
requiring attention. The new shops
are entirely completed SO far as the
contractors work is concerned. The
foundations tor all the machinery have
beer placed. The setting Of the machin-
cry is proceeding with unexpected slow
ness and probably will not be completed
and all the tests made within two weeks.
At the end Of hat time at least 200 men
will be required to man these new addi-
tons to the shops, and probably more.
With this actual condition of affairs
there is no reason why an attempt should
be made to boom Cheyenne on the out
side BY misrepresentation Fake adver-
Using has never yet done a town any
permanent good, It Is always sure to
result in It's injury. sooner or later. So
far as Cheyenne is concerned all such
schemes should be irowued down. 1t Is
not to our credit that some such things
have been lone in the past; 1t should be
our duty 70 see that it is not permitted in
the future.

A Fifteen Pound BoV Born on the
Train Last Night.

Laramie bR3AAANAALa
W. c. Wilson returned this morning
from a trip West. When his friends
called around at the store this morning
and told him they would take a cigar on
him he looked u~uaccountably puzzled. 1t
appears that when the limited was nearing
Crested Buttes last night a lady was taken
sick on the train. Billy was riding in the
front part of the train with some of the
railway directors when the lady's husband
came through the train in search Of a
physician accompanied by Conductor
Charlie Roberts. No physician being
found Mr.. Wilson consented to 90 back
and do what he could as a druggist. When
he reached the rear of the train where the
lady was she whispered her suspicious to
him and Mr.. Wilson secured the services
Of a lady on the train and gave proper
attention to the case.
A fifteen pound boy was born at Crested
Buttes aud a christening party was held
right there on the tram. The bouncing
boy was christened Wilson Craig, the
mother being Mrs. II. G. Craig. of
Pittsburg, Kansas. Conductor Roberts
was the grandfather. Mrs. Craig was
taken from the train at Rawlins and the
Union Pacific physician called, who
congratulated "Dr" Wilson on his
eminent success. Billy will have a
cannon at the depot in a week or two
when his namesake goes East.

DF ADVERTIsING,
WHAT WY RAPPEN.

A number OF people have asked why it
was that Senator Warren got all the Iredit
4 and notoriety and that Judge Carey's
name was seldom heard in connection
with anything done for Wyoming in
Washington.
The reason is simple enough. Mr..
Carey has several years in which to dis
unguish himself. while the next legislature
elects a successor to Senator Warren.
That gentleman is a candidate for re cleo
ton and needs all the prominence he can
get. If the legislature should be Repub-
ican and he is elected to succeed himself
he will keep in the background, and Mr..
Carey will come in for all the prominence
until the following legislature meets. This
system Of double-teaming NAV not please
some of the ex-senatorial candidates, but
SIS far as Mr.. Warren is concerned. if they
don't like it thew can lump it. He is the
party. -Erdnst0H Register.
The political future of the two senators
is a good deal Of a problem. Warren was
disappointed because be failed to draw
the short term tor United States senator,
IN which event the legislature which bad
once proven so complaisant would readily
prove so again. Warren has determined
on a reelection and be is being doomed,
as shrewdly observed by the Register,
even at the expense OF Carey. A good
deal Of work is being done in the SAINT di-
rection bv political strikers all over the
state. Warren having determined TO get
back to the senate will sacrifice every in
terest to accomplish his purpose. He has
done so before which is the best evidence
that he will do so lVain.
But while Carey is at least tacitly
furthering Warren ambition. It is strange
that he is overlooking his own. The com
ing contest is liable to be very close and
it Warren should succeed by a scratch be
is liable to have his party 10 such a
temper as will bode no go1d for Carey.
Indeed, it is not impossible to conceive
that the success Of Warren may mean the
subsequent defeat of Carey.
The senior senator seems now to be
playing into the hands Of the junior
senator. He NAV be doing 50 to his own
detriment 1t is strange that this view of
the case seems to have never presented
itself TO him.
