Most wonderful Peak In America.

Most Wonderful Peak In America.
Marshall Rankin and Gen. Richards
both agree that the highest one of the
Three Tetons, on the south line of the
Yellowstone park. is the most wonderful
peak in America. Mr.. Rankin thinks
the peak is only 1880 feet high, but
Mr.. Richards said i. was 14,150. 1t
stands up nearly a thousand feet above its
surroundings and is smooth and rocky, a
cold apd desolate poinr, the top of which
man has never set foot upon.
Prof. Hayden reported hat he reached
the top OF the peak. but Tex. an old
scout, who vas with him, says differently.
1t is reported that Surveyor WIN. Owen,
of Laramie. went within 600 feet of tho
top and Mr.. Rankin says he would come
as near doing 1t as any man.

HE WILL BRING SUIT.
Clerk Atkinson will Mandamus the
County Commissioners.
He Objects to Their Star-Chamber
Proceedings.
A Candid Letter which Contains
Opinions of Force.


Inc papers IN nanuanu SUIT oi oam
uei ATKINSON clerk OF the nrst district
court, against MOSES T. heeie' John w.
hoyt n John +. Carey, county commis-
sioners OF Laramie county. have been
made out and will be served to day.
The suit is to compel the commissioner
to show cause why they refuse to allow the
regular quarterly account OF Mr.. Atkinson
for salary as clerk of the court. The re-
fusa! or failure of the board to allow the
salary is presumably because Mr.. Akin
son, as clerk of the probate court, has not
turned in to the county the fees collected
BY him in transacting probate business.
Under the law regulating the question
of fees, it is directed that the clerk of the
court when performing duties in the pro-
bate court shall pay the fees collected
into tie county treasury. There IS. how
ever. n question as 10 the validity of this
law. and until a legal decision is reached
in the matter, the clerks of court in all
the counties in the state will refrain from
turning in the probate ices they collect to
the counties.
Mr.. Atkinson has endeavored to obtain
a hearing before the board and explain
his position on the question of fees. but
the chairman of the board informed him
that no hearing would be necessary as the
board had arrived at a decision which
nothing he could say would change. IN
der this ruling, which savors somewhat of
the style Of the car OF Russia's methods,
there remains no other method for Mr..
Atkinson to obtain his salary than by suit.
His duties as clerk of the probate court
have no relation to those he performs as
clerk Of the district court; his bond covers
and protects the county for all fees he has
or may collect, and there is apparently no
good reason why the affairs of one Office
should be used by the commissioners to
influence them IN their treatment of the
affairs of another. the following letter
from Mr.. Atkinson to the commissioners
explains his stand very clearly:
OFFICE OF THE CLERK OF DISTRICT
Court, CHEYENNE, Oct. 9.-To the hon
orable the Board of County Commission
ers.-As 1 was informed by your honora-
BILE chairman that you would not listen to
me in relation to the allowance of my bill

If we are not able to undersell our competitors,
where would be the advantage of a large over a small

Squire Kimberly to be.

Since the death OF tho late Squire
William Ii. Davis there has been some
speculation MS to who would DO his
successor. Tho only applicant for tho
vacancy has been ex.justico Buchanan,
but the friends OF Philo Kimberly have
urged him 10 allow them to use his
name for the position. At first he
declined, but the suggestion OF his
name met with SO much favor that it is
understood that his consent has at
length been obtained. He will probably
be duly appointed at tho meeting OF
tho Board Of Commissioners next Mon
day. A better choice could not be
made. Mr.. Kimberly is intelligent and
has all tho requisites Of q tirst-class
judge. His appointment would meet
with general approval.

that th2 liberals OF Ontario were In favor

denounced IL and MIR. Blake declared the
