How Brain workers should Eat.

1T is all right for the man who labOrs

but the man of sedentary habits. the
brain worker, must adapt his way OF
living TO his needs. He must he well

Of good work unless supplied with
pure blood. but such man cannot
possibly furnish vital force to digest
three meals daily. If he tries it nature
will protest at every step. The chem
ical changes Of digestion will lie inl-
perfectly performed. The stomach will
neither secrete freely nor churn the
food with cheerful alacrity; the py-
loric orifice contracts and allows such
chyme to pass with grudging reluct-
ance; the intestinal lacteals arc
ashamed to absorb such miserable
pabulum, which chokes. initiates and
congests them. so the large meal re-

in foul gases and depraved secretions.
But the system can furnish enough
vital force to convert n small meal
into pabulum of high standard. which
will be absorbed without difficulty.
Three such small meals are not
enough to keep the individual prop

William Mann. an cX- fireman on the
Union Pacific. killed himself in a coach
some tim" between Sunday morning
and last night. He was found in the
coach Will" it WAS being hauled to
Chry"mn" from Laramie. He was 30
years old and was well dressed.
Two days ago Their" was shifted on
to On" of tn" side tracks in the Lara
mi" yards an old coach that is used
CT cars in the service of the Union Pa
life. Many such cars are shifted back
and forward every day. Sometimes
tn" coach is on a regular passenger
train and carries truns-continental
traffic acrOss the Wyoming division.
sometimes it is used for hauling CON
tractvd graders from one camp to an
other. 1t is shifted from station to
station and from camp to camp. 1t
hauls all kind of people and is used
for all sorts of purposes from day to
day.
This particular coach came into Lar.
annie two days ago. 1t was put on a
sidetrack and left there till this morn
ing, when it was attached to a local
freight to be transferred to Cheyenne.
1t vas an empty car and no particular
attention was paid to it.
Somewhere east of Red Buttes the
conductor of the freight train by
chance went through the train. He
passed through the coach and sudden
ly am" upon the body of a man lying
in one Of the seats. He leaned over
and saw that the man was dead. In
his head there was a gaping bullet
wound. The blood had flowed down
Over his face and shoulders. He was
dressed in the customary garments of
Il lahorcr. He had nothing on his per.
son by which his identity could be es.
tablishod. He was dead and that was
all there was to it.
The conductor at the next station
notified the assistants office and Cor
Oner Gray was notified. That is all.

STEALING ON A LARGE SCALE
UNCOVERED BY SHERIFF'S

Sheriff Yund and Deputies Gray and
ed to be one of the most complete sys-
tens of cattle stealing that have ever
been attempted in Wyoming. There
is in the county Jail now a man who is
! supposed to be the head of a gang of
! cattle thieves whose operations have
extended over many months and a
wide range of territory. 1t is expected
that nearly all the losses that have
been reported within the last two
manipulations of this gang. The
of other persons under suspic-
ion cannot now be mentioned but the
revelations within the next day or two
are expected to be startling in their
nature.
A number of cattlemen of this sec
ton Of the country, among them Will
lam Owen, have within the past year
and a half missed from their herds a
large number of cattle. No trace of
them has been found till within the
past few days.
In Two States.
1t has TRANSFERRED that not only in
Wyoming but in Colorado the opera
tons of cattle thieves have been no.
ticeable and there appears now to have
been some intimate relation between
them.- The arrest of David McClay
seems to nave established a connec-
ton between the two sets of opera
tons and the officers think that they
have clews that will lead to wholesale
arrests.
a few days ago a shipment of cat
tie was made from Tie Siding to Oma-
ha in the name of J. A. Johnson. The
money to cover the price of the cattle
now lies in one of the banks of Chey-
enne. The man to whom the nancy
is payable now lies in the Albany
county jail. He is known by two
names. One is j. A. Johnson and the
other is David McClay.
This man was arrested in the hills
rear the city by Deputy Gray. He
says he bought the cattle from a man
from Colorado. and paid for them the
amount named in cash and promised
to pay $500 in thirty days. Beyond
this he has little to say regarding the
charges made by the sheriff. There is
also in custody today, though not I'M

FLAG OF THE REPUBLIC.

To our Hannacratic friends there ap-
pears to be nothing quite so precious
at this particular moment as the honor
of the flag.
1t was not ever thus. When the op-
pressed and starving Cubans cried out
for relief. It was the commercial inter-
est, backed by Hanna. that flouted a
war for humanity. When the flag was
treacherously sunk in Cuban waters
and the blood of $50 murdered sea-
men excited the resentment of the
country, it was President Mckinley, at
the behest of timid capital, who for
weeks tried to balk the patriotic i'm
pulses Of the people.
But Secretary Gage discovered that
philanthropy and per cent could go
hard in hand" The subsequent action
Of these dollar patriots has been logi-
cal Having syndicated the principal
lines of business: having placed 1.-The
life blood of commerce" at the mercy
of a few national bank doctors; having
laid careful plans to acquire colonies
for exploitation, they have now begun
to form joint stock company Qimited)
to take into their exclusive keeping the
glory of our national emblem.
These gentlemen object to the Phil
ippine policy of the Democratic party
upoD the ground that it is hauling
down the flag. Let us see.
The administration is already estab-
fishing a stable form of government in
CGba. This is precisely the first plank
III the Democratic Philippine policy.
The administration and the RepuS-
lican platform guarantee the independ-
ence Of the Cubans. This is exactly the
promise made to the Filipinos in the
second plank of the Democratic pol
icy.
The Republican platform declares for
the maintenance of The Monroe doc
trine, which insures to the Cubans free
dom from foreign aggression. This con-
stitutes the third plank in the Demo-
cratic policy.
Now, gentlemen OF the "Honor-of-
theFlag" joint stock company Qim-
ited). you say that Mr.. Bryan and his
supporters are not upholding the glory
of the stars and strines in the Philip
pine islands, although they stand alb
sOlutely upon your declarations as to
the treatment of Cuba. What do you
propose to do? Violate the national
faith by maintaining cuba as a colony?
Just as YOU violated your promises as
to bimetallism? Or do you intend to
evacuate Cuba and haul down the
flag?

SHIELDING Nicely.


1t was said that Nicely, the practical
imperialist and a living illustration of
the presidents civil service policy.
would have a speedy trial His offense
has created suspicion and dissatisfac
ton in Cuba and. according to Presi-
dent Schurman of the insular commits
sion. it has justified the distrust ex
pressed by the Filipinos of the effect
of partisan administration and carpet
bag rule.
Even the Indianapolis Journal, rank
partisan sheet that it is, expresses it's
disgust with "the vicious quibbling
over technicalities and the evident de-
sire of those in authority to place OBJ
stacles in the way of Neely's extradi-
ton and trial"
1T is, of course. essential that legal
proceedings should be conducted in a
legal manner" says the Journal. ''but
they should also be brought to a con-
clusion as speedily as possible consist
ent with the ends of justice. Prompt
ness in the prosecution and punish
ment Of crime is an essential element
of justice. In this case United States
Judge Lacombe adjourned further
hearing in order to allow time for the
defense to present briefs and for the
government, if necessary, to introduce
further testimony. Judge Lacumbe is
an able judge. vet it would seem as if
both sides had had sufficient time to
hearing Neely's counsel moved to dis
miss the application for extradition on
the ground that the act of Congress of
last June 6 was unconstitutional. He
argued that it is not within the power
of congress to subject Americans to
trial nv military tribunal in a foreign
country in time of peace. The presi-
dent, he said, had practically erected
a government in a foreign country
which he rules through a military gov
eminent by martial law, and he insist
ed that there is no authority in the
constitution Which allows or tolerates
such condition OF things"
This clubbing. this attempt of Nicely
and his aeeon4plices to hide behind the
administration will not only injure Nc
Kinley's influence in Cuba, where he
needs the confidence of the people to
insure successful discharge Of the obli-
cations voluntarily assumed by this
government, but lit viii do him in
finite harm in the state of Indiana,
where Heath and Nicely are known"

SILVER AS AN ISSUE. .

The Boston Herald says that the sill
yer issue is the most important for
voters to consider in this campaign.
1T is not fair to say that Mr.. Bryan
must bear the full responsibility for
the declaration for the free coinage of
silver, says our Boston contemporary.
THE Democratic party as such is re-
sponsible for it,
Western ex-champiens of the white
metal can make no one believe that sill
yer is dead. In the east they know
better. They are appealing to the gold
bugs everywhere to vote and work
against Bryan because. as the Republi-
can platform puts it, the gold standard
is not secure and the election of free
silver ticket would be certain to result
in bimetallism
1T is useless" says the Boston paper,
ito talk about the fact that in the com
mittee on the platform this specific
plank was placed there by the votes of
such delegates as came from Arizona.
New Mexico, Oklahoma and Hawaii.
This was but preliminary work The
important point is as to whether the
convention favored it. The free silver
men say that if it had been carried
into, that body on a contest it would
have been overwhelmingly adopted.
This may be only conjectural, but it is
also not material The fact remains
that the convention did at last indorse
it and that If Endorsed If unanimously
How idle to deny the favor it found
after that"
And what spectacles ex-champions of
silver are making of themselves to ig-
more the unanimous adoption of the
silver plank while discussing the views
of the individuals who drafted the
PLATFORM
The fact remains that the free coin
age of silver, Independent of any for
eign power, was demanded by a unani-
nous convention.

PROSPERITY ARGUMENTS.

Senator Frye has furnished Republi-
can newspapers with a number of rea-
sons why people should vote the Repub-
lican ticket this fall. A few will give
a fair idea of them all:
Our wheat crop in 1898 was larger than
that OF any other nation-23 per cent of
the worlds crop.
Our corn crop for the same year was
ten times larger than that of any other
nduon-l5 per cent of the worlds crop
our export of provisions was three
times greater than that of any other
nation.
Our, cotton crop was five times great
er than that of any other nation-75
per cent of the worlds product
No doubt the American farmer feels
very grateful to William Mckinley for
furnishing the rain and sunshine which
gave him good crops last year and the
year before. As the prices of wheat
and corn have been as low under Nc
Klnley's administration as they ever
were. the size of the crop is the only
thing for which they can thank our
great and generous president.
Foreign wars and famines have
caused an enormous demand for pro-
visions. These large crops of the
American farmer furnished large part
of the supply which answered that de-
mand So the pres dent must again be
praised for the wars and famines in
South Africa, india and Siberia, which
gave us control of the provision mar
ket. although nothing has been able to
raise the price of wheat and.corn.
Cotton planters no doubt fall down
uDon their knees and bless Mckinley
every time they think of the great
yield he permitted them to have.
Just wait until November and see if
they are as grateful as Republican
spellbinders think they should be.

rich and accustomed as it is to the
"scuttle policy of irnperialism.
Who knows the methods of the Han
Mates. or the purposes of 'the syndi-
cate in control OF our national affairs
that would question their disposition to
scuttle any ship of stats If selfish gains
could be made By doing so?
Hanna has been described by a local
Republican organ as "the worst enemy
this republic has ever known" II must
have been his prototype that Byron de-
scribed as 1.-The mildest hammered man
that ever scuttled ship or cut a throat"
If it were an island to be sacrificed for
empire. the great iron magnate of Ohio
could doubtless do the scuttle act as
easily as he could cut the threats of
business competitors.
What is McKinley's object, then, in
disavowing a "scuttIe policy" for the
Philippines?
Does he feel called upon to reassure
the American people in view of what
his Apprentices have attempted in
Cuba?
