According to the reports OF the re-
cent rich discoveries that have been
made ON the headwaters OF the Cache
La Poudre. the gold is found in white
quartz leads very similar to the forma-
ton Of the Grand Encampment cJun-
try. Ore carrying free gold has been
broken of OF lodges above the top OF
the ground, the same as in Encamp-
ment. These discoveries simply confirm
the theory Of the continuity OF the min
eral belt from Wyoming into Colorado,
and shows that it extends over more
than 10000 square miles OF territory.
Certainly with the amount o. prospect
ing and development work that is now
In progress in that vast territory some
great mines must be discovered. and the
foundation laid for a big city. Whether
1t shall be in Wyoming or Colorado the
future alone will demonstrate. So far
~ natural advantages are concerned.
however, the chances are greatly in IA
o Of neutrality-suspicious. Republican.

JOHNSON CALLED DOWN.

Some weeks since the World called
the editor OF the Wyoming Department
Of the Denver News down because OF an
unnecessary and uncal.-for article de-
rogatory to Wheatland, in which the in
ference was made that our farmers were
receiving but so cents per hundred for
wheat. We corrected the misstatement
by quoting the market price at Wheat
land at the time, which was $1.15 per
hundred. A few days later Editor John
son OF the Denver News neatly crawied
out OF the position he was in by stating
that he mean 60 cents per bushel. OF
course. every one knew that i've meant
nothing OF the sort. for no one supposes
Z man who has been president Of the
state university and who yearns for an
opportunity to rattle around in the Uni
ted States senate, could possibly be 80
ignorant a. not TO know that prices
on all grains in this state are quoted by
the hundred pounds and not by the
bushel. This Is also true in Colorado
and other mountain states. No prices
are quoted by the bushel on grain or
potatoes. These facts are known by
every school boy. and Editor Johnson
can not well plead ignorance OF them.
But. the World was satisfied with Bro.
Johnson's~ explanation. We did not care
to quarrel with any paper; our only OBJ
ject, in fact, was to correct a statement
which would necessarily do Wheatland
IN injury. The matter was dropped, we
supposed, until last evening we picked
up 4 copy o: the Douglas News and
found therein a rei;eration OF the ca!am>
fty howl set up by the Denver News.
Just why U Douglas newspaper friend
considered 1t necessary to poke his more
Of less discolored proboscis into the con-
troversy in order to exhibit the wrong
end of himself to public gaze. is
thing that is hard to explain. Perhaps
the gentleman has formed the conclu.
sion from handling oil" placer loca-
lions by the bushel that all o.her com,
modities in the state are to be governed
BY the same method o: measurement

A. w. Travers, the notion man, had
little unpleasant experience at River
view one day last week He had just
stocked up with goods received at
Muscoda and was starting on a trip
with a heavily laden wagon. Stopping
in front OF Walter Cooks house TO
water his team, the biting of flies caused
the team to back away from the trough.
Seeing the danger OF his wagon being
precipitated over the embankment into
the water some thirty feet below, Mr..
Travers grabbed the team by the bits
This frightened them the more and the
wagon was thrown partly over the
bank when one wheel gave way and
another caught against tree, saving
it from falling into the river. Before
the wagon could be gotten from its
dangerous position the goods had to
be removed

Boyle: V. r.. Mrs. Laura jerks: f.
s., Miss Mary Bishop: Treas, Thos.
Hogan: Sec, +. G. Halverson: Mar
shall, f. Hill: Representative to Grand
Lodge, j. Il. Boyle. Recommended
for Lodge Deputy, Miss Crissie Hal
version. The installation will occur
Monday evening.
From present appearances there will
be a larger attendance thanusual from
Mineral Point at our fair. which of
course means liberal patronage from
Dodgeville at the Mineral Point exhi-
bition week later. There is no rea
son why the people of both cities
should not get along tremendously in
these matters. Both fairs are deserv-
ing of support from the people of the
county. and both will undoubtedly re-
ceive it.
