Editor Republican:
The Boomerang objects to me com
pairing my first year as sheriff, with
Mr.. Frazer's first year. 1t is expected
that they will object to anything l may
say. The Boomerang states, during
Mr.. Frazer's second year his expenses
for deputies were over $3.50 less" Mr..
Frazer's second year expenses for sal
aries for sheriff. deputies and bailiffs
was $62 more than 1t was the first year.
This includes six days in January 1896.
II the Boomerang will take the trouble
to look the matter up 1t will find that
my expenses for the whole year Of
1895 are only $4.64 more than Mr.. Fra
zer's were for the last month and six
days that he was in Office. When l go
out of Office in January, 1897, I will
compare the expenses incurred by Mr..
Frazer during his second year and II l
do not ave more than l did the first
year I will make the Boomerang a
present of $25. The Boomerang states
that the Boomerang a produce am
davits showing that the cellar was left
full of coal for Mr.. Grant by his prede-
+cessor." Now the facts are that I was
compelled to order coal on the 7th day
of January, the day l entered upon the
duties OF sheriff and said coal a de-
livered Oh the 9Th day OF January.
The Boomerang wishes to know
whether or not l included in my ex-
penses the re-modeling Of the sheri6's
apartments and the destruction Of bed
bugs. This was all charged to my ex-
pense but should have been charged to
the democrats. The same kind Of work

1t now begins to look more like bust
ness. Yesterday a company was in
corporated to work mines at Cooper
hill which means business and intends
to go right ahead and push things.
The name of this new concern is the
Carbon County Gold Mining and Mill
ing company and the capital is placed
at $500, 900. Tie affairs of the COM
pany will be managed by nine direc-
tors. and the first board is constituted
as follows:
President-w. r. West of Mime
apolis. Kas.
Vice president George Morgan OF
Laramie.
Secretary. w. r, Gray of Kansas
City. Mo.
Treasurer. C. Gafford of the First
National bank of Minneapolis, Kas.
The above officers were selected
from the board of directors and the
remaining directors are c. b. Maxwell
of Topeka, Kas.: "m. Nottingham.
Jabez Smith and J. T. Morgan of this
city.
1t is the purpose of the company to
of the Albion and Crocsus mines. For
this purpose three tunnels will be driv-
en- two in the Albion and one in the
Croesus. Two shifts of men will be put
to work at once and the ore taken out
will be piled on the dump until ar
rangements can be made for its re-
duction, works for which will surely
come if the development of the camp
should warrant the outlay.
This company will at once set about
investigating the cheapest method of
treating the ores from their properties
and when that is discovered it will pro-
coed with its use without any unneces-
sary delay.
The Kansas gentlemen who are in
terested in the new corporation are
said to be men of considerable means
and are prominent in business enter

cases l made no charge whatever. In
other cases I have deputized some one,

some other way in order to save the
county expense. ! am pleased to see
that while the Boomerang does not
give me any credit in saving expense
to the county, yet it admits that the

LARAMIE AHEAD.

\ special TO the Denver News from
Wrisingcr's ranch says:
A large number of Laramie pros
pcCtors. numbering over a hundred
men, in groups of from 10 to %, are
camped in different localities in the
pecting and taking claims in all direc-
tons. y lot of excellent looking ore
has been found and great excitement
prevails. The men are well equipped
with provisions and tools, and are do.
ing work in a miner-like way.

POLE MINES.

Messrs. George and Jacob Berner re,
turned today from the Pole mountain
country. They say that several Chey-
enne parties are working there and
that there are plenty of indications
everywhere. Donzleman and Hoffman
OF Cheyenne have some men at work
on a claim Of low grade ore from which
they have received assays of S. per ton
from near the surface. 1t is their pur-
pose to go down at least so feet on the
vein and If it holds out as good as at
present for that distance it is their in
tention to put in Brown process works,
with which it is believed the ore can
be worked at handsome profit, even if
it does not run above the S. mark. The
ore seems to exist in almost unlimited
quantities.
The Berner brothers located several
claims upon a lead which is about 200
feet in width. and brought a quantity
Of the rock with them to the city for
assay.
The location Of these properties is
just about IA miles east of Laramie in
the second range.

D. SLEIGH RIDE.
Ready to Borrow Everything Needed
to Perfect His Plans.

There once lived in Vermont a young
man who was not much more than
h%alf-witted, but who, like many other
people who are lacking in intelligence,
always wanted to do just as other and
more gifted people do. In the town
where he ran his ambitious career,
"Bildad's sleigh ride" is still a syn
onym for an enterprise that depends
largely on the resources of others.
One winter when the sleighing was
good, and all the young SWANS of the
town were taking their young lady
friends to ride, Bildad was impressed
with the d%esirability of organizing an
expedition of this sort on his own ac-
count. But he had no rig" and no
money to hire one with.
Nevertheless, he came one afternoon
to a worthy young lady of his neigh
borhood and asked her to go sleigh
riding that evening.
'But, Bildad!' she said. you haven't
got any horse"
John Miles. he's promised to lend
me his'n."
why, John hasn't got any harness.
Pete Corliss's going to let me take
his'n."
What are you going to do for a
sleigh?"
Mrs. Beals, she said 1 could take
her'n."
You can't go sleighing without a
string of BELLS"
Nathan Pages goin' to let me take
his string
John Currier, he said he'd jest as
lives I'd have his old one; and by
CORY, l en- cut a whip myself
The young lady said that under the
circumstances she guessed he'd have
to borrow some other girl. Neverthe-
less, he persisted in his search for a
partner until he actually found one,
and went on the sleighride in fine style.
Some years after this occurrence Bill
dad came late to al engagement to do
a job of work, and was asked the rea-
son for his hardness.
"Huh!" he answered. with a smirk,
1--WE been gettin' merried this morn-
in'!'
Married! you, Bildad! Why, you
can't support YOURSELF"
Well" said Bildad, $" en- purity
near support myself. and l think she
ought to help some!"
