revived the crowd from Youmans's
morphic dose.
The gist of the fight is that
there is opposition to the attempt
to equalize taxation. Even the
assessment of sore back mules was
raised s1,OOO,OOO; yet no farmer
kicked or went into a lawsuit over
it Yet, when the administration
tried to make the banks pay their
just taxes, they went into court
and said their surplus must not
touched. The other side propose
nothing; they simply attack
Tillman. He then itemized the
good things accomplished by the
Tillman administration. White
people in the country work the
roads together, and in the cities
all pay the commutatlon tax. He
made glowing eulogy of character
and patriotism OF the poor white
men in South Carolina in peace
and war. Tillman makes mistakes,
but he is truefo the platform and
principles on which he was cleo
ted.

The coal from the new Kindt mine is
said to be superior to the Rock Springs
article. Some of it was cooked in the
shop of james Candlish in Rawlins a few
days & and proved to be better than the
coaking coal now in use In the railroad
shops there.
Snow at Gold Hill is very deep and the
constant storms delay work very much.
1t was expected that the first cleanup at
the Downey mill would be made this
week, but 1t has been postponed. On
account Of the trouble experienced in
hauling ore from the mine, the mill has
not been at work steadily. For fourteen
days the men could do little more than
keep the road open between the Wyo-
ming, from which the ore is obtained and
the stamp mill. Col. DowneYis expected
at the camp about the 10th and the
cleanup will be made between the 10th
and the 18th.

HOME FROM CREEDE.
A Cheyenne Mans Description of the
Famous Camp.

f. NJ. Watson came in from the great
mining camp at Creole, Colo, yesterday
and will return this morning. Mr.. Watson
says the camp is an undoubted success
and will rival Leadville in richness. New
strikes are being made daily and men of
wealth are putting in their money in I'M
limited mounts for the development of
the camp.
At the present time there are 1000 peo-
plein Creede. All kinds of business is repre-
sented. There are three newspapers and
three banks. An electric light company
was organized one week ago by Senator
Poole of Denver, and last night 1t was ex-
pected the plant would be running. Bush
ness lots sell for from So 900 to S., 900
aud jump In value with every report OF a
new strike. On some of the lots business
blocks three stories high have been
erected.
The business Of the camp is on a cash
basis, no credit Is given for anything.
Carpenters and other mechanics get big
wages, 81 a day being the usual figure.
Meals are seventy-fivc cents and are poor
even at that price.
MIR. Watson has bought a business lot
and is putting up a store building. He
will be selling goods within a week. He
will be pleased to see any Cheyenne peo-
pie who may visit the camp, and will be
Of service to them in any wav he San.

STATE NEWS.
Twenty Thousand Tons of Laramie
Soda Contracted For.
A Cleanup to be Made at the Gold
Hill Stamp Mill.
Items of Interest From Various
Parts of the State.

The firm OF Stephen Padden & Co.,
chemical importers of Chicago, has con,
tracted with Victor Beaumeur OF Lara
mic to furnish 20, 900 tons of soda from
the lake near Laramie. 1t supplying the
10000 tons Mr.. Beaumeur will be enabled
to get out IOO,O 900 tons of soda at slightly
additional expense. The Boomerang
says:
The lake to be drained covers sixty
acres of ground and over this entire sur
face there is a deposit OF n foot of crys-
tails, Covering these crystals there is an
average depth of fifteen inches of water
which will be drained into the dry lake."
lust to the southeast, to which right-of-
way was recently given by the Wyoming
Central Land and Improvement company.
The water thus drained off will form a
new lake some twenty acres in extent and
FIVE feet deep, from which mex fall a new
crop of CRYSTALS will be gathered. Mr..
Beaumeur will put thirty men at work to-
morrow and says he will keep them busy
night and day.
The deposit Of crystals is sufficiently
heavy to bear up not only a team but a
locomotive and train if necessary. After
blowing the soda will be scooped up with
small scrapers, loaded on a sled and
hauled to the north bank of the lake
to which the Union Pacific company will
build a track and thereby enable them to
load the cars for the chemical works in this
city.
The Boomerang is reliably informed
that in addition to harvesting the 100, 900
tons of CRYSTALS that have been deposited
in this lake, and aside from the expecta-
tion of the crop to be reaped from the dry
lake next fall, the lesses propose to build
during the coming season sixty acres of
watts which they will gather twenty-five
tons of soda a dav. 1t Is their intention,
now that they have ascertained the exact
status of affairs, to run the Laramie
Chemical works in which 80 many
thousands have been invested, at their
full capacity. The soda will be calcined
and shipped East for use in the great
glass factories OF the Eastern and middle
states.

1T WILL BE A

The article concerning Casper and
Whereabouts, presented in this mornings
issue. will undoubtedly prove an eye
opener to many people in Cheyenne. For
months past indefinite rumors have been
afloat about development work, mainly in
the line of oil and copper, now in pro-
gress in that vicinity. but the rumors have
by no means come up to the actual facts.
It will be noticed that a very great deal Of
money has been spent, not only in buying
properties but in developing them. At
the present stage oil and copper seem to
pretty equally divide public attention,
with asbestos, soda and other minerals as
incidents. Men know they have a
good thing in the mineral OF the
region surrounding Casper and investors
seem to clearly realize it as well. Develop
ment work will this veal be prosecuted as
never before. The town and country are
destined to rapidly grow and it looks very
much as though they would reach a
position of commanding importance.
THE LEADERS plan Of thoroughly
writing up the resources of all parts of the
state, but particularly those which are the
least known. has proven a gratifying
success 30 far and has not only been of
advantage in carrying the news to the
outside world but is demonstrating to the
people OF the state itself that Wyoming is
a region of extraordinary resources which
are now being utilized to the advantage
of every one concerned. All of this is
conclusive to state pride. When the work
is completed there will be laid before the
people . complete inventory OF the state S
resources. the actual condition Of develop
ment and the opportunities here presented
for the investment of capital with the
surety OF q good return.

A GENUINE NUISANCE.


There may be In all this broad land
town In which there are more irequsn
and persistent calls upon the business
men IN aid of charitable enterprises thar
in Cheyenne. but we doubt 1t. There il
scarcsly a day of the week when thu
business men are not i%mportuned to con
tribute money to every conceivable enter
prise. Some times they are so held up
several times in the same day and that
they maintain their patience and good
humor under such persistent importunlty
is infinitely to their credit.
A handful of men and women gather
together and decide to start new church.
The church which they have been at
tending splits the theological hair betwixt
the north and northwest side and they
want to split betwixt the south and south
eaat side. Or on the other hand they
may be influenced to conscientious and
reasonable motives, but in all events theg
want q new church organization of their
own. They withdraw from well built and
old established churches, few of them
ever crowded with worshippers and some
OF them rarely more han half filled. If
so minded it is the blessed privilege of
these people to 30 withdraw and no one
denies them the right, but if they are p
hard to please it is only reasonable that
they should pay the expense Of building
and maintaining their new place OF wor-
ship. They should not become a tax
upon the merchants of the community,
but they invariably do. They circulate
their subscription lists among members Of
other churches who have enough to do
to maintain their own church contribu-
tons and among men, who, while they
have no interest In hair splitting questions
OF theology and not members of any
church, yet readily contribute to the sup
port of one or several. Everyone is
bounded and importuned and sometimes
even threatened and men are forced to
contribute who would not think of spend
ing the same amount in a bit of luxury
for their own families.
Following this comes purely private or
ganizatIons, Of no advantage whatever
cept to their own membership and main
tanned entirely for their benefit. In the
way Of ball tickets the business men are
taxed to support these OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
one or two, but a score OF them. Then
there are cases of private charity. Often
times the object OF the charity is entirely
unknown to the business man asked to
contribute, which is also very frequently
the case with the individual who presents
the subscription list. IF the business man
fails to subscribe he is pronounced mean
and stinRy and more or less OF a boycott
is inaugurated against him by the little
faction to which he has refused a contri-
button. Many merchants realize this and
rather than to have any hard feelings
give away money which they cannot al.
ford or which they may need to pay their
legitimate debts or help support their
own families.

BISMARCK IN BAVARIA.

MUNICH, June 25.-Prince Bismarck
arrived in this city from Vienna ut
o'clock this morning. Despite the
earliness of the hour number Of dis
tinguished Bavarians were ut the rail
way station to receive him and he was
welcomed with loud cheers. AS he
stepped upon the platform reception
committee presented him with bouquet
and an address of welcome, and the band
played Idle Yacht Am Rhein."
The irrepressible students, among
whom Prince Bismarck is the very
greatest sort of favorite, We're out in
force. They were determined to well
come him and their enthusiasm ap-
peared to be contagious, for the streets
through which the prince passed on his
way to Herr Lenbach's villa were
crowded. The Munich firenen bore
flaming torches and the students and
firemen formed line along the route,
while the crowd, numbering thousands,
stood behind them. As the prince and
his party drove along the crowd broke
out into wild and long continued cheer
ing.
When the party arrived at Herr Len
bach's villa, where they will remain
during their stay in Munich. they were
greeted by twenty-four trumpeters OF
the Allotria Artists association. Many
of the crowd had followed the party
and continued cheering for the eX-
chancellor Three times did Prince
Bismarck appear upon the balcony of
the villa where bowling and smiling he
thanked the people of Munich for their
hearty welcome.
