The Bond Slack Wedding.

Wallace G. Bond and Miss Har-
riet Louise Slack were united in
marriage by Rev. Rafter, dean of
the Episcopal church of Cheyenne,
at the residence of the brides pa
e.,ts, Col. and Mrs. Slack, at 7
O'Clock last Thursday evening in
the presence of about fifty of the
close personal friends OF the fami-
ly and the contracting parties. 1t
was a very pretty wedding and the
most pleasant social event of the
season. The house was decorated
with smilax and potted flowers and
plants and was charming and at
tractive. Delicious refreshments
were served to the guests during
the evening.
The bride, who is the eldest
daughter of Col. and Mrs. Slack,
is the favorite of a large circle of
friends and is possessed of many
attractions both of person and
mind. She has more than ordi-
nary talent in a literary way and
has produced some charming bits
which her friends treasure very
much She looked charming and
sweet gowned in a white linen
null trimmed with N~alencennes
lace, and carried a large boquet of
white carnations.
The groom is the private secre-
tary of Governor Richards and is a
young man of promising future.
He has by his gentlemanly traits
and courteous manner endeared
himself to a large circle of friends,
and is an especial favorite with his
brethren of the pencil.
The young people were remem-
bered in a most handsome and
substantial manner in the way of
presents of every kind and the dis
play of cut glass and silverware
showed the very high estimation
in which they were held.
The happy pair will spend a
portion OF their honeymoon in
Salt Lake, to which place they
went on Friday mornings train.
THE Sun joins their many warm
friends in congratulations and
best wishes.

1t Will Continue.

The story of the good times
which the people of the west have
been enjoying has been told and
retold. But the west isn't get
ting all the prosperity from these
Protection times. The east comes
in for its share, too. The August
account Of the Jersey Central rail
road shows IN increase of $l55, sos
i'll the net earnings of that road
over August of last year. The
total increase in net earnings since
January l amounts to 1925. 499.
The business of the railroads is
is one of Che barometers of bust
ness and it is among the best. In
creased earnings mean that more
freight is hauled and more passen-
gers carried. The hauling of more
freight indicates larger sales by
manufacturers and jobbers and
larger demands from retailers and
consumers. The carrying of more
passengers means more business
journeys and more pleasure trips.
The limits of what Protection
will do for the prosperity of the
country have not by any means
been reached as yet. The books
of the Jersey Central railrond and
other railroads of the country will
show continually increasing earn
ings ms long as the Protective TAI
i'll law is in force, and it is likely
to be in force as long as the Amer
lean people prefer plenty to power
ty and pny attention to past e,-
perience under Protection and
under Free-Tr

IMPORTANT TESTIMONY
Concerning the Injury Done our Forests
By too Close Grazing.
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo.
Oct. 20, 1899.


Oct. 20, 1899.
j. F. CRAWFORD, Esq,
Proprietor Sun, Saratoga, Wyo.
Dear Sir:-At the request of a
mutual friend l write you a few
lines concerning the injurious
effects of sheep grazing upon for
est lands.
1t is well known that sheep
differing from horses and cattle)
crop the heritage very close and
do not separate and range over a
wide expanse as do other grazing
animals They are usually kept
in hocks,s and are not permitted,
were they so inclined, to break up
into small punches or become dis
persed. 1t seems probable that
where sheep are habitually pastur-
ed they destroy not only the per-
manency of the grass, but other
suculent and tender vegetable
growth, including shrubs and
young trees, especially the decid-
uous kinds. And if with the latter
are mingled coniferous growth,
these suffer also, for in the earlier
stages of their development they
depend for moisture, shade and
other protection, upon the decid-
uous underground. In other
words, shrubs and other inferior
vegetable growths are nurses for
the pine, spruce, fir, and other
conifers.
On breaking camp one morning
at a point on the White River
Plateau | encountered, in descend
ing to the valley, some shepherd
L who had passed the night in
the hills. The spot, neal the edge
of the timber, at which the sheep
we're held was an abrupt but pretty
slope which the day before was
covered with wild grasses and I'M
dergrowth. When they left it,
after a few hours occupancy, it was
rs desolate and bare as though it
had been scourged by fire. 1t
seemed more than likely that the
next heavy rains would sweep
away even the soil--leaving only
the naked rocks.
There may be differing opinions
upon the subject, but the weight
of evidence seems to clearly sus-
tain the belief that sheep grazing
is highly injurious to forest lands.
The great Importance of forest
preservation, and the many and
varied interests affected thereby,
need not be recounted here. This
is truly an age of progress and the
value and utility of forests are at
last meeting with deserved recog-
milton.
| am very truly yours,
EDGAR 7. ENSIGN,
State Forest Commissioners of Col
orado.
