In regard to the political situation,

will receive the united support Of the

come indignant at the suggestion OF
supporting a party that has made their
very existence a problem while it was
in power and will rally to the support
OF the republican party almost to a

brought about by republican legisla-

D1sAGREHABLE EXPERIENCE.
Cavalrymen Have a Tough Trip from
Fort Washable to Rawlins.

Troop B of the Eighth United States
cavalry passed through Laramie this
morning en- route from Fort Washable
to Huntsville, Ala. There were 90 men
In the troop. The soldiers had a dis
agreeable experience on their march
from Fort Washable to Rawlins. They
were even days on the road and on six
of these days they encountered severe
snow storms, and were compelled to
make their beds in the snow. To add
to their discomfort, some Of their
horses were not in good shape and they
were forced to walk nearly half the dis
lance. After riding for an hour or two
the order would be given to dismount
and walk. By the time the order to
remount would come. the saddles would
be full Of snow and or course the troop
ers' clothes would get wet. Then when
the next walk came the clothes would
freeze stiff. and SO 1t went. The Eighth
cavalry was recruited near st. Louis
and some of the latest additions to the
regiment never saw a now storm be-
fore. They got through the ordeal all
right. however, and no sickness has yet
resulted. The regiment expects to be
ordered to Cuba to>do garrison duty.

Reservoir to Be Constructed by Wyo-
ming Development Company.

Work on the reservoir of the Wyo-
ming Development company on the
Laramie plains is to commence at nee.
Wyoming. the leading state in irriga-
ton matters, is about to enter upon the
construction Of a series of reservoirs
for the conservation of waste water
that mean much to the commonwealth
in the promotion Of agricultural pur-
suits and in attracting a farming ele-
ment so much to be desired in the
building up OF new communities.
Taking the lead dn this matter with
a full assurance that the investment
will pay from the start, the Wyoming
Development Company has decided up
on the construction Of the aforemen-
toned reservoirs, which is to be COM
pleted in time to catch the spring water
and hence will be commenced at once.
The reservoir site is eight miles due
west of the company's tunnel and a
mile from the McGill ranch on the
Laramie plains. The dam will be but
thirty feet high, but eleven miles long.
The reservoir will cover 5000 acres of
land and will save from the Laramie
river $4,000 acre feet Of water. This
will be sufficient to irrigate from so, 900
to $4,000 acres of land. With a system
of bitches the company now has under
cultivation $4,000 acres OF land. This
acreage will be increased and the short
age of water experienced at certain sea-
sons will no longer embarrass the till
ers OF the soil. The cost OF the reser-
voir will be about $65, 000.-Cheyenne
