MINING NOTES.

The Laramie Mining exchange has

country tributary to that town. The
Laramie people are to be congratulated
upon their enterprise.-Rawlins Re-

Two coach-loads Of passengers left
for the park yesterday. One load was
a party Of five New Workers.. They
came in on the morning train. did not
register and loaded up at once for the
park. They had every appearance OF
being men of means.
Col. f. P. Snow, the special cores
pendent of the Engineering and Min
ing Journal of New York, has accepted
the position of secretary of the Lara
ME mining exchange. The Laramie
people are certainly to be congratu-
lated in securing the services of so able
A man as Col. Snow.-Saratoga Sun.
The excellent pamphlet just issued
by the exchange is in great demand,
and they are being sent by citizens to
every state in the union. 1t is going to
prove Of immense benefit in advertis-
ing the resources of southern Wyo-
ming. Great value is added to the
work because Of the fact that it con-
tains no eXaggerations.
Col Snnw has .ccoptod tho conro-
tarvship of the Laramie mining ex-
change and it was suggested that his
sphere of usefulness az an able expon-
ent of Wyoming's mineral resources
might be cut short thereby. but Presi.

Gentlemen: | have delayed the an

PURPOSES in the future conduct of the
city affairs. While fully advised of the
general high aims of our party, the as

SUPPORT of my party and the members
of the old board holding I'VE in earn

the Office of mayor. With assurances
received. upon which | place the most
implicit reliance, | am well pleased to
accept.
Laramie is not an exception to that
financial distress so universal through
out the country. We as a people have
sustained our full share of the misfor-
tune common to this broad land of
ours. Depression in business, decreas-
ed profits. and incomes, a lower wage
schedule, lack of employment, and de-
creased values of property, have
brought upon us a condition of finan-
cial distress heretofore unknown. The
only way of which | am advised, to
meet sucn a condition, is by the prac-
tice of strict economy in private and
The ease with which our people ac-
cumulated money in past years, their
efforts to promote the rapid growth OF
our city, and the early development OF
our material resources, naturally bred
extravaganza in our public and private
affairs. AS a result of this, our people
are struggling under a great weight Of
private debt, and our city is burdened
with a very large bonded indebtedness.

remedy applied.
When in these times. to win bread

hard task, every added burden, whether
public or private, becomes onerous. To
avoid these as far as possible under ex-
listing circumstances. is the demand OF

INCREASING Soil Fertility.

No subject is Of greater practical impor-
tance to farmers than that of making their
land more fertile says the American Gull
tivator 1t is doubtless true that much of
the depression in farming in this section
has been due to the fact that farmers here
on partly exhausted soil have been unable
to compete with the west in growing the
great staples which can be most easily
grown and which have the widest market
While the western farmer had an unboun-
ded expense of new and rich soil to break
in and to crop, this kind of competition
made it impossible for eastern farmers to
grow any of the small grains for market
with profit. The only thing they could do
while growing oats, wheat and rye was
to consume as much of the grain as posi-
BILE on the farm, and thus get more than it's
market price.
All this time, however, those farmers who
had maintained and increased soil fertility
found that there were special crops in
which western competition is less severe
than in grain, and which yield reasonable
profits. Most of these lands have been
near enough to villages or cities to make
a home market This has been the fact
with market gardeners, small fruit grow
ers and seedsmen, who have been the chief
purchasers of the stable manure sold in
their neghborhoods. So sharp has been this
