MORMONS IN BIG HORN.
Hard at Work on Big Ditch Near
Lowell.

More than 100 teams are now at work
on tho new ditch being taken out of
the Stinkingwatcr near Lowell by the
Mormon colony. Some twenty outfits
with quite "A herd of cattle passed
through town yesterday on their way
to the new settlement and small com
paEies will keep on coming o of the
summer and fall. The way these peo-
pie have gone to work, shows that
they will accomplish more in the curse
of a few months than most big ditch
concerns do in five or six years. These
people are to be congratulated upon
their thrift and enterprise and at the
same time Big Horn county is to be
congratulated upon receiving them as
citizcns.-Otto Courier.

The time is near at hand when Lar

annie will be compelled through n%ecessi-
ty to build new waterworks. The pres
ent system is a back number and rotten
to the core. There is not a single main
of sufficient capacity and the %aqueduct
from the springs is an old sheet-iron
affair long ago worn out. We now get
our water for nothing, but who of the
property owners of Laramie would not
be glad to pay n small tax to have al
the water necessary for irrigation? The
main pipe belongs to the Union Pacific
company, but that need not stand in
the way of Improvement. Perhaps the
company. if the matter were properly
presented, would lay a new pipe OF
sufficient capacity, or at least turn
over to the city all rights it possesses
provided the city will make the i'm
provements needed. Some years age
it made a proposition of this nature
but the city neglected to accept it. TAl
main pipe from the city springs should
not be less than IL inches in diameter
in the city proper and from the hospi'
tai east it should be larger. Laterals
are also needed on every street. Mos
of the laterals are of three-inch pipe
They should in no case be less thar
four inches. With n system such rs
suggested, pressure would be main
tanned at so pounds constantly
When the time arrives for action, q
flrst-class engineer should be consult,
ed and his advice followed. We have
had too much poor work already.

BOHEMIAN STUDIO PARTIES.
The Delightful Combination of Fun and
EormAlIty.

The Delightful Combination of Fun and
Formally.
1t is just as true, said the Observant
Girl, that proper environment counts
quite as much in the battle of success
full entertaining rs the proper plac-
ing of an army does in actual war
fare. When the surroundings are
charming, a host of even very moder-
ate tact and ability can persuade peo-
pie into believing that they have
passed q most delightful evening. Per-
haps this is why studio parties are al
ways placed among the things to be
desired. Certainly a studio generally
means a thronging place of many old
and rare things, all valuable in remin-
iscences and compelling starting points
of conversation, for If these tritles
have been picked up abroad, they
either awaken memories in the minds
of those who have been there or raise
the hopes of the people who mean to
go some day, and thus prove a splendid
stimulus to a general talk.-Exchange.

POLITICAL NOTES.

With the heat of the political CAM
paign out of the way, and the chance
for making partisan capital out of the
question, the shipping bill is sure to be
early considered and promptly passed
at the short session of congress.
When farmers can pay $40 for COWS
and $50 for six-months old heifer calves
they have surely found the golden
standard.
Corporal l.. F. Basley, writing from
the Philippines to his mother in Ohio,
says: IF some Of those traitors in
the United States had kept their mouths
shut we would have had them (the
Filipinos) whipped long ago. Anyone
that upholds anti-expension is no bet
ter than an insurrector." This con-
firms other similar reports of the dem
ocratic support given to A%guinaldo.
! Before Christmas, the general eXpec-
tation is, the ship subsidy bill will be
a statute of the United States.
A vote for a democratic congressman
means a vote for free trade, free soup
free silver, free bread, free poorhouses
freedom from wage-making.

stimulate congress to pass the ship
ping bill early in the coming short SEES
sion.

keeping pace with the formation of in

During his speech at Omaha, C. II,
Vessels, the Boer envoy, told the fol
lowing story: The British nation
is great in wealth and soldiers. We
knew it when we began. There is Il
story told of an innocent, slow-think'
ing Boer, who was conyersing with al
E%nglishman. Why, don't you kno"
that England is so great that the SUI
never sets on her soil?' said the Eng

Mems shirtwaists In Rome.

Whatever may be the ultimate fate
of the shirt waist man in this country,
he ia already established on a firm
footing in the Eternal City of Rome.
Victor Emmanuel, the Count of Turin,
and only two removes from the throne
OF Italy, has given the shirt waist his
sanction, and all the Roman dandies
have been quick to follow his example.
The Count Of Turin is one OF the
most enterprising and interesting
young Princes in Europe. He has
travelled widely, coming to this u

PRICE OF FLOUR ADVANCING
Bread May he Higher as well rs Coal
This Winter.

Prices Of flour are climbing higher
with an advancing wheat market and
the householder is confronted with the
possibility of being compelled TO pay
more for his bread as well as for his
coal this winter. The Chicago agents OF
the standard Minneapolis brands Of
spring wheat -four have notified the
wholesale trade of advance of 20 cents
a barrel. The new price will be 81. 70
a barrel, which is 40 cents more than
was asked a month ago. Wholesale
grocers will make a corresponding ad-
vance to the retail trade at once.
Standard winter patents have advanced
rs cents to S4.35 in the last three or
four Ldays. Southern patents have
been advanced 80 to 40 cents by the
wholesale trade. Chicago millers have
marked up prices also. A local miller,
when interviewed, said:
I'VE shall have to add 10 cents "A
barrel to our prices, quoting our stan
dard brands at Si.GO, an advance of 80
cents in less than two weeks. Wheat
