LAiRAMIE'S FUTURE

In . communication recently pub
hshed In this paper, Judge Brown calls
attention to the fact that the people of
Laramie must look for prosperity in
the development of the latent resources
Immediately surrounding his city.
Judge Brown Is right. And in the pres
ecution Of this matter OF development
the people Of Albany county should fol-
low the established we'll beaten paths
and not resort to doubtful experiments.
Experience Is a good teacher, though
sometimes q very high priced one, and
Laramie has drained the bitter cup to
the dregs. More than 500 900 was
s~QuADdefed in the establishment of
ghaWorks in this city. Old methods
were IGNORED and new and doubtful
processes were tried. The result was
failure. The people OF Laramie were
not to blame. They were led by men
Of practical experience. but with too
visionary IDEAS. One thing was cellar
ly demonstrated, that glass Of a super
Tor quality car be manufactured from
the materials near Laramie. Why the
last company (the cooperative COM
pany) failed is a question that has nev-
er been answered.
In the case Of the Laramie rolling
min, the Union Pacific made a failure,
but private enterprise took hold of the
institution and made it a grand sue
cess. In the case of the Laramie soda
works, the Union Pacific company made
q failure. but Howard Hinckley took
hold OF the works and produced what
wNs considered to be the finest brand
Of concentrated lye made in America,
or the world, for that matter. The per-
sonal habits of the manager were
doubtless responsible for his downfall.
He demonstrated beyond a doubt. how
ever, what may be done under careful
and judicious management.
But in spite Of her great resources in
glass msterals. in plaster materials,
in soda and I've and in mining, Lara
mics greatest hope for the future lies
in Agriculture. Every ear sees an i'm
mense increase in this line OF industry.
Every foot Of government land con-
tiguous to the Pioneer canal which is
irrisabk thereby, between Laramie and
Sheep mountain, is taken up and pros
porous homes have been established
thereon. This has been done, too, in
spite Of the fact that in many cases the
question Of q future water supply is in
doubt. When the dispute between the
and company and the Union Pacific
shall have been settled. the railroad
lands below the canal will doubtless be
thrown upon the market in a manner
which will permit title to pass to small
owners In time. perhaps Through their
necessities. these small owners will or
ganize and 90 into the raising of wheat
and other small grain. S~ingle-handed,
It il impossible for a farmer to start
in this business. because OF the fact
that It requires expensive machinery to
harvest and thresh grain and a mill to
grind II in order that a profit may be
made. Laramie and the towns along

Prices and Prospects Of the Trade In
Cereals

CHICAGO, June 27.-Damage reports
from excessive rains in that portion of the
country where harvesting Is under way
created bullsh sentiment In wheat at the
start. The weather in Great Britain was
unfavorable, Paris, Antwerp and Budapesth
complaining of continuous rain and Great
Britain Joined in the same complaint. In
addition reports of poor yields, compared
with previous expectations came from al
most every quarter of the American winter
wheat region where harvesting had been
completed. There was considerable short
interest in the market and the reasons for
the opening strength being found upon ex-
animation to stand inspection, there was
general effort to cover. But the same sttu-
alton which i,A,uced the shorts to buy
checked the offerings and with. very little
for sale there was lively competition which
resulted in better prices. Closing quotations
from abroad showed decline at Antwerp
of 25s bushel. This, together with some
ostentatious selling of July In the pit. here
to II cents for July and 66R cents for Sep
tember. The crowd was short, however,
and on some good buying, the market rail-
lied quickly and closed near the top for the
day. July closed IL cents higher and Sep
tember 1 cent higher. 1t was changing
market in corn, with the price improved
somewhat in sympathy with wheat. July

prices eased off later with the other grains.
The market closed near the bottom on
heavy selling by country trades. Julyede-

Conditions as Shown by Transactions
on Wall Street

NEW YORK, June 27-The character of
the market for securities was very little
changed today from that recently prevail
ing. Railroads were neglected and with a
few exceptions drifted to a lower level, the
demand being insufficient to absorb even
the small offerings. Meantime individual
specialties were taken up and pushed for
ward Independently to higher level with
out regard to the general tendency in the
was sharp drive against sugar and Peo-
pies Gas In the opening transactions which
reduced the price nearly 81 per share. This
was apparently with purpose on the part
of the bears to put stop to the upward
tendency of some of the specialtes. But the
Industrial stocks continued to be influenced
entirely by individual causes and both
sugar and Peoples Gas were allowed to re-
cover. Tobacco, rubber, spirits preferred,
Pullman Third Avenue and Brooklyn Tran
sit all showed marked strength at one time
or another, the latter advancing to near So
on heavy buying in the final hour. There
were a few exceptions to the heavness in
the railroad list the Vanderbilts and Rio
Grande Western showing some tendency
to advance. There was also quite an active
demand for Atchison preferred at small
advance in price which was explained by
the latter publication of the May traffic
statement showing an increase in the gross
earnings of $4S5 ,S44 and in the net earnings
of s2SS,297. Part of the dullness in the mar
ket is attributable to doubt over the bear
ing of the new war tax to go into effect July
1st on stock sales, loans and exchange. .
There was a degree of activity in bonds
today and prices of railroad mortgages
were generally higher. Total sales, 50 49,

Patriotism and Religion

My daughter, who teaches in a mission
Sunday school, tells me of Dewey expert
ence she had with a youngster making his
first appearance. She had put him through
a half hour or more of instruction in the
rudimentary principles, for he was entirely
lacking in information on that point, and
20 test him was reviewing her work with
him.
Now" she said. "tell me again who made
the world and all that is in it?'
"God did, replied the boy, with COM
mendable promptitude.
"God can do everything, can't he?" she
asked again.
The boy hesitated moment.
II don't believe he could lick Dewey
ne answered at last, and his teacher sal
silent between her religion and her patriot
ism. 1t wasn't her time to say anything. Il
she didn't want to lose that boy forever
and she had wit enough to let it go at that.

large tract Of forest land. From st. Louis
he traveied down The Mississippi: On u steam
boat as far as Memphis. The plot on the
boat was of the type :ha; Mark Twain has
made famous. Mr.. Bliss found the war
enthusiasm stronger In the south than it IS
here, and there is a considerable display of
bunting, A mans life would not be worth
much who should offer insult to the flag in
the south. thinks Mr.. Bliss.
Mr.. Bliss chartered tug and Travelled up
a narrcw bayou 10 Grand Lake, catching
photographs on the way of arigators as they
s..pped off the logs into the wafer, the beau
tiful long s,reamers of moss, the tropical
trees, and other objects of interest In that
wild, rich country Grand Lake, 100 miles
or more to the ives; of New Orleans, is the
scene of much of Longfellow's beautiful
romance, "Evangeline." Mr. Bliss ad-
dressed some inquiry or o.her to the tug boat
captain concerning the wanderings of Evan
ge,ine. "Evangei.ne, Evangeline. Oh,
wasn't she the woman from the Times
Democrat?" The lake had evidently been
written UP more lndn once. MT. bllSs
tried to buy copy Of "Evangelne" in
Morgan City, but there was not one to be
had. However, he succeeded in locating
the spot where Evangeiine is supposed to
have recliued under tree, and his picture Of
that tree Will do quite as well as though 1t
were surely the right one.
The tugboat captain was man Of prop

and was, prosperous, yet he and his family
live in the most primitive style. The pigs

shooed the hens off the paro. chairs to
make room for his visitor. Mr.. Bliss want
ed a glass of milk, but thu captain was
sorry, the cows had not come home that
night. The cows were never MIXED unless
they chose 10 come home. There were
twenty-five in the captains family, includ-
ing several grand children, and they lined
up for Mr.. Bliss to get picture. ''Your'rs
from the north, amt ye? Do you know
Dewey?" Mr.. Bliss had to admit that he
lived several miles from the admiral's home,
which quite disappointed the S-year-oM who
