has undertaken the formation of pro-
visional ministry to take the place OF
the fallen Badeni cabinet, which has
resigned, will probably succeed in his
endeavors. He is of German nationality,
moderate and a concilliatory politician,

His advent will, in all probability,
cause a cessation Of the extraordinary
scenes of rowdyism which have marked
the sessions of the reichsrath during the
last eight weeks. These proceedings
unparalleled in violence in the history
of parliamentary government, owe their
origin to a race struggle
A Race Fight for supremacy.
Germans and Czechs are each striv-
ing for supremacy 1t is an ancient

means the wiping out of one race or the
other.
Some time ago Count Badeni, the pre-

is spoken by approximately 6OOO,OOo

Advertising has become a science
and business men Of Laramie are on
the alert to keep pace. The day Of the
old-time ad which was never changed,
except when a change occurred in the
firm which run it. is past. To be effec-
tive and draw the attention of the peo-
pie. an announcement must say
thing and the firm making the an
nouncement must be prepared in every
case to back 1t up. An advertisement
containing a lot Of misleading state
ments generally works to the injury Of
the advertiser.
Without mentioning any names, The
Republican could point to several Lar
annie advertisers who have made money
through their investment in printers
ink. They have adhered closely to the
solid rule, do as you advertise"
Whenever a price was quoted the peo-
pie have had the most implicit conf
dence that they could get the goods
advertised at the price stated. Such
advertising lends interest to the an
nouncements made and brings about a
better feeling between merchant and
customer.
Although occasional changes in ad-
vertising matter causes the publisher
more trouble, the thrifty newspaper
man halls with delight the business
man with his new copy" 1t gives his
paper a fresher appearance and at the
same time 1t makes him feel that his
services are doing his customer some
good.
The business man who patronizes his
home paper literally. using honest.
straightforward statements Of facts. is
the man who always succeeds.

General Grant had as much to do
with General Longstreet's becoming a
republican as m one else. They had
been schoolmates at West Point, had
their commissions at the same time.
They had fought among the cactus
bushes Of Mexico and had drunk mescal

1t was at Jefferson barracks. near St.
Louis. that Longstreet introduced his
cousin. Miss Julia Dent. to Grant. and it
was Longstreet himself who told the
young lady of the worth of his friend.
They were married. and the Georgian

ties Of the surrender were over. General
Grant took General Longstreet to one
side and said:

word. When General Grant became
president he asked for his advice and
begged that his former adversary now

The Wyoming supreme court did a

cided that ~foreign-born citizens. in Or

state constitution in English-thus
knocking out the system heretofore
prevailing Of receiving the votes OF
miners who could read only their ma

this ruling a number Of republican
county officials will lose their places
to democrats; but 1t is better so than
that republicans should owe their cleo

LoNGsTREET's SECOND YOUTH.
His Temperance in Official Life Re
wives a Flood OF Memory.

Two negroes Of the south figured in
history again last week when President
Mckinley appointed General James
Longstreet to succeed General Wade
Hampton as commissioner of railroads.
Wade Hampton was appointed to the
position by President Cleveland very
soon after the crippled confederate
from South Carolina was defeated for
thesenate. His term of office has ex-
tended yer a term Of four years. His
resignation was not called for, but was
voluntarily given. 1t is the desire Of
the retiring commissioner to return to
his home and there spend his declin-
ing days. He has had enough Of poll
tics and political positions.
1t will be remembered that General
Longstreet married thestate librarian
OF Georgia in August. 1t Is said that
he appears as fresh and strong as when
he fought by the side Of Grant and
in front Of Santa Ana in Mexico more
than half a century ago. His age is
now 76 years. His figure is slightly
stopped, but his eye is bright and his
speech is strong.

His appointment to a federal posi-
ton this time will not bring about the
harsh criticism Of thesouthern press.
The south has long since forgiven his
divorce from bourbonism. But who
can forget the remorseless attacks
made on him and his character a few
years ago? But he bore it. Occasion

He rather passed them by in silence.
In a letter written to newspaper man
in New Orleans ten years ago he said
he had waited for time. He knew that
reason would take the place of the pas
sion of the south. His course had been
right. He had no apologies to make
and he never made any. Four years
ago he attended a reunion of confeder-
ates at New Orleans. Courtesy on the
part Of the ex-confederates demanded
that he be invited. and he was. They
did not expect his acceptance. 1t was
the second morning of the meeting
when a carriage drove up to the hall
entrance, and the grizzled veteran
alighted. He had no escort. Alone he
climbed the steps and alone walked
down the aisle to where there was a va
cant seat. He had not proceeded far
before the gallant ex-leader was rec
ognissd. There was the faintest sort

HOW MAYOR PEEvE WAS ROBBED

He Says He was Not Playing Cards ON the
Trnin-suspect EiSman Discharged.
Mayor John G.. Peene of Yonkers was consid.
erably perturbed yesterday over the report that
he was playing cards when he was robbed Of
$1,000 on the train at Springfield, Mass, on
Wednesday.
Its tough enough 10 lose the money" said
Mayor Peene yesterday, but it's worse still to
have 1t appear that 1 was gambling on a train
with a lot of sharpers. never play cards; don't
care anything about 'em. Anybody in Yon-
kersll tell you that. As 1 started to get out of
the train the aisle was blocked by a man down
on all fours. apparently looking for something.
That struck me as queer. and when he got up 1
put my hand on my pocket and found that my
wallet was gone. Instantly l looked for the man
who had been behind me-, but he was gone, too.
As soon as / got outside l saw the man who had
blocked the aisle and started for him, but he
kicked me In the stomach and got away on a
train Just moving out. i called to the conductor
that L had been robbed, but no wouldn't stop tho
train; It was. simply and easily done. and So"
A young man named Max Eisman was ar
Boston flyer In the Grand Central Station, be-
cause he answered the description given by
Mayor Peone of the man who grovelled in the
aisle. Detective Barrett, who made the arrest,
told Magistrate Kddlich yesterday that he had
ascertained that Eisman was not In Springfield
at the time of the robbery, and no was dis
charged.

Further liquidation in Jersey Central dom.
mated to-day's stock market. That stock sup
piled nearly one.fourth of the total transactions
and sustained a net loss of $50 points at a recov-
cry of & . cent. from the lowest price recorded
for 1t. The shares of the other anthracite coal
carrying roads. particularly Delaware and Hud-
son and L~ackawanna, were adversely affected
by the break in Jersey Central, sustaining net
losses Of liz and 1as y cent. respectively.
Reading was neglected. There were no fresh
developments regarding the anthracite proper
ties. AS Is well known. the trade is not in a sat-
i~sfactory condition. 1t is generally claimed that
prices are we'll maintained. but profits are
small and the volume of business Is barely nor
NAL. The use of gas and other substitutes for
anthracite is unquestionably a factor that
affects the industry unfavorably. Regarding
Jersey Central. the stock tape indicates the ex.
istence of unfavorable circumstances especially
affecting that property.
Chicago Gas, which was dealt In nearly as ex-
tensively as Jersey Central, was exceptionally
strong throughout, and closed fractionally
higher than yesterday. The change In the mar
ket for 1t was explained by the decision of the
Illinois State Senate by a large vote to recon.
slider next Tuesday its vote Of yesterday upon
the two bills affecting tho Chicago gas com.
panies. Metropolitan Traction was higher on
the judicial decision to the effect that the com.
pany has the right to change the motive
power Of the Eighth avenue line, and denying
the claim that the city has an option to
acquire that line at an advance Of 10 y cent.
upon its cost. The entire list was unfavorably
affected in the late trading by prospects that tho
Senate would pass this afternoon the Cuban bel
ligerency resolution. The possibility Of exports
of gold on Saturday was discussed on the Street,
and the indications are that q comparatively
