compliments they paid us. However, we

The people of Laramie feel very
grateful to those gentlemen from
abroad who expressed so many kind
words at the banquet Tuesday even
ing, and particularly do they feel kind,
ly toward Representative E. H. Fourt
of Fremont county. He comes from a
county generally presumed to be hos
tile to this county. yet his language was
most friendly and decidedly compli-
mentary. His references to our dis
t%inguished citizen, Mr.. Otto Gramm, are
priced at their full worth. Mr.. Fourt,

GOOD WYOMING TERRITORY

There can be no doubt that Denver
could attract attention from the vast
area of territory in Wyoming and the
northwest if pressure could be brought
to bear upon the Colorado and Southern
to induce 1t to extend its line from Grin
Junction, Wyo., to Casper-a distance
something like seventy-fiye miles. At
the present time the ElRhorn road
practically controls that territory and
diverts the natural channel of trade
away from Denver to eastern points.
A road such as suggested would run
parallel to the Elkhorn, but would open
| up a new field that would be of ines
| timable value to Colorado commerce.
ally.
A. J. Boutwell,, one of the leading
stockmen of Wyoming, states that such
a road would open up an area which
ship 5000 900 pounds of wool annually
and thousands of head of cattle and
| other stock. This should be routed to
Denver, for such a route would be its
natural ours
Denver will profit in a much greater
measure when she places herself in a
position where she can invite the stock
men to make his home here and spend
his money in this city. Nebraska now
attacts every hoof from that section
and reaps the reward by selling its
farm products TO the breeders and en-
toying the money they distribute in the
state. The stockmen prefer Denver as
a place to live and furnish educational
fat .lities for their children, and would
| come here il that territory could be
brought into closer relation to the city
| and state through an extension of the
| Colorado line.
You are mistaken when you state

BANNER REPUBLICAN COUNTY.

The Carbon county papers are o n
tinually reiterating the claim that Car
bon county is the banner republican
county Of the state and is therefore en-
titled to special consideration. Let us
see If this is true.
In Carbon county, Governor Ricn-
ards received at the last election a plur-
ality of 1886 out of a total vote for gov
ernor of ala, his plurality being near
ly Is AS per cent of the entire vote. In
Weston county he received a plurality
OF 24S out of a total vote OF S14, or owe
30A per cent of the total vote.
Our present election law recognizes
the congressional vote as the standard
in placing the tickets on the official bal.
lot. Let us compare this vote in the
two counties.
In Carbon county the total vote fol
congressman was 2,105, of which Mr.
Mondell received a plurality of 1874, or
about Is As per cent, while in Weston
county his plurality was 331 out of a
total vote of S14. making his plurality
over 40k per cent of the total vote.
But some will say it Is not fair TO
compare OF the congressional vote as
Weston is Mr.. Mondell's home county.
Very well. We will compare Mr.. Nom
dell's vote in Weston county with the
vote on Carbon county's candidate on
the state ticket, Mr.. C~hatterton, secre-
tary OF state.
Mr.. Chatterton received a plurality
in Carbon county, his home, Of $50 out
of a total vote Of 2,107, his plurality
being a trlfe less than IL per cent OF
the total vote, while Mn. MondelPs plur-
aHty in his home county Of Weston was
as above shown 4Gh per cent.
We are willing to admit that Carbon
county casts more than two and me
half times as many votes as does Wes-
