The force in the Union Pacific shops
at Laramie Is being increased. and a
large number of shop men who we're
transferred to Cheyenne last spring are
now being returned to their old posi-
tons in Laramie. The large number
OF pushers on the Lookout and Simp-
son hills between Laramie and Raw
Inns makes 1t necessary TO have a
back" shop at Laramie. The pushers
are constantly breaking down and q
sufficient force will be maintained at
Laramie to make the needed repairs.
A large force is kept busy in the Chey-
enne shops rebuilding old engines end
making heavy repairs on broken-down
locomotives.
During the past few months the
Union Pacific has constructed a hand
some hotel building at Medicine Bow,
between Laramie and Rawlins. The
same Is now ready for occupancy, but
will not be opened until a new time
table is issued. The issuance of the
new ard is being delayed pending the
result of the war now being waged by
several roads for the mail contracts.
When these are awarded IL is believed
several important changes will be made
in the running time of Union Pacific
passenger trains between Omaha and
Ogden.

A WORD ABOUT COL. FRED.

Nobody who knows Col. Frederick
Funston can help admiring him and
having faith in him. He is one of
the most modest men imaginable.
He is the soul of sincerity and hates
nothing so much as sham and pre-
tense. He doesn't know the meaning
of the word fear. He is full of pluck
and resolution and physical endur-
ance as he demonstrated beyond any
mans caviling in Death Valley, in
Alaska and Cuba. He is cool and
clear headed and quick witted in the
extremity of danger. II he had not
been he would have lost dozen lives
beforethis time if he had had them
to lose. He never whines or boasts.
He loves his friends and he hates his
enemies.
so il is hard for us who have known
him all his life to understand the
malignity with which some Of the
newspapers of the state, who do not
know him AT all, assail him and fol-
low him with sneers and iibes and
rank untruths, What possible basis
have they? He has never failed in
anything he undertook. He went to
Dakota for the Agricultural depart
ment and did so well that they sent
him 10 Death Valley. He did so well
there that they sent him To Alaska.
He brought back the largest and best
classified and best cured collection
of the flora of the coast country that
had ever come from there, so he was
sent back again the next year to
traverse tbs interior. lie was offered
helpers but preferred to go alone.
He climbed the Chilcoot pass, whip
sawed the lumber for his boat, sailed
and pulled it across the frozen lakes
and shot il through the White Horse
rapids, -traversing long before the
KlOndike was heard of the terrible
trail that ten thousand men since
then have essayed in vain,-and
came home: and joked about it. He
went to Cuba as the Captain OF one
gun, He endured there for nearly
two years what our soldiers in front
OF Santiago are pitied and lionized
for enduring for Il month, doing so
well what he started out to do that
when he came away he left the COM
mand of all the artillery in Garcia's
army and brought with him COM

was appointed Colonel of the Twen-
tieth Kansas without any solicitation
on his own part, and we nave 1t from
both private and public sources that

chaos into which it had fallen during

weeks the regiment was so improved

pealing with irresistible force to state
and National pride and pointing out
with clear vision the way that led to
the welfare of the state and the glory
of the Nation.
1t is a matter that we believe every
man in the audience regretted that
Mr.. Stanley could not have had an
hour and a half instead of brief
forty minutes. And'yet in those forty
minutes the speaker certainly made it
hard for any unprecedented citizen to
still regard it as his duty to vote the
Populist ticket.
But those who met Mr.. Stanley
personally liked him best. The cor
dial grasp of the hand, the straight
look out of the clear eyes. the ready
smile and the pleasant word, and
withal the unaffected, honest. manly
bearing of him, could not but win
regard and respect.
And so it. happens that the Repub-
licans of Allen county are proud of
their party's candidate for Governor.
And we do not believe there is man
of any party who heard him speak
or made his personal acquaintance,
who will not admit that i'm culture,
in education, in aptitude for public
speech, in personal bearing, in dig
nifty and uprightness of character, in
patriotism and in principle, w. +.
Stanley is most abundantly qualified
to be Governor of Kansas.

W. +. Stanley spoke to an A lien
county audience for the first time in
his life last Thursday, and the REG
IsIER feels sure it is not the partiahty
which comes from personal friend
ship and party zeal that leads us to
the conclusion that he made most
pleasant impression upon all who
heard him, and particularly upon all
who met him personally.
How, indeed, could anyone hear the
speech he made here and not he
pleased? The manner of the speech
to begin with, was most admirable.

that Gen. King publicly pronounced
it the best drilled regiment in the
brigade. He has had nothing but
commentator from his superior Off
GERS, and everybody knows that the
only trouble he has mad with his
subordinates is that which came from
their own characterization and mat
tention to duty. Is there any sense
or decency IN talking about a man
with record like that as a callow,
empty headed, bumptious child?
1t is time to let up on Fred. Funs-
ton. He is in truth and in fact

UNSEASONED TUBS.
Large Quantities of Really Good But

All Over the Country.
A great many unseasoned butter tubs

A great many unseasoned butter tubs
are being marketed by one or two
firms, which ought to be in better bust
ness, but which somehow in the COM
petition between them do not exercise
the care they formerly manifested in
all their manufactures. OF course, III
will be said of the guilty concerns that
it is some one else that is turning out
such fresh material, but investigations
show that the concerns in question
ought to be in better business if they
desire to maintain any sort of reputa-
ton for honest, decent goods. In writ
ing on this phase of the question to the
New York Produce Review, Mr.. Dodge
says among other things: "All the
trouble that have had in the past three
years has been from sappy green wood,
and the trouble can only be overcome
by having the wood thoroughly dry and
fit for use. There is nothing manufac,
tured, that is made out of wood, until
the wood is properly seasoned. see
no reason why this should not follow as
regards butter tubs" No reason what.
ever, except the rapacity and narrow
greed of some of these manufacturers.
1t makes great difference in the price
of butter that is not packed in first
class and thoroughly seasoned tubs OF
those raw and fresh. Tubs may look all
right on shipment, but after the butter
has been in transit to market, the de.
fects become apparent and the goods
are reported as off, affecting top quo.
tations. Butter-makers should exer.
else the greatest care in such matters
and if possible make such concerns
sign contract to make good any losses
sustained through want of properly
seasoned tubs. There is no excuse fol
it any more than there is for any other
kind of fraud.-Prairie Farmer.

Pull up any weeds that may have

not disturb the mulch.
Do not let the plants in the seed bed
grow too thicltly or they will grow tall
