An "E" in his Whisky.

The public schools Of Wyoming have
adopted the new method of spelling.
Thorough is now spelled thoro; through
is spelled thru; though is spelled tho;
etc. The changing of spelling reminds us
of the changes made about fifteen years
ago. when program vas spelled program
me, Savior was spelled Saviour, whisky
was spelled whiskey, etc. The printers
adopted the new style and used it, much
TO the disc omfort of the old editor. After
marking the proof for about a month, he
finally came out with Il proof in his
hand and tears in his eyes and said,
"Now boys you can spell anything any
way you want to so long as it is uniform,

Our Wool Output.

While the figures are not all in it is
estimated that last years wool clip will
aggregate 2O.OoO,OoO pounds, which will
unquestionably place Wyoming second
only to Montana in the matter of her
wool production. The number of sheep
assessed in Wyoming in 1893 was 1000,
0O0, which number had increased to
3,O0O.OOO in 1899. At the present rates
of increase these figures will be swelled
to 100000 by July 1900, at which time
the valuation Of sheep in Wyoming will
exceed that OF cattle.-Budget.

William Conroy, the man shot
by Frank Bryan in Battlea month
or six weeks ago, passed through
here Monday on his way to his
home in Sheldon, Neb. The
wound in his back, which all
supposed would prove fatal. has
healed up, but the bullet, which is
lodged near the sciatic nerve in
his hip, is giving him trouble and
compells him to go on crutches.
1t now transpires that the ball
which passed through his left
forearm, and was supposed to
have gone through between the
bones without breaking either,
did break the radius. DIR. Price
opened an abscess which bad
formed Just above thefracture, and
in Introducing a probe found that
there was a compound fracture Of
the radius. Conroy's recovery
is regarded as something quite
remarkable.

LEAD POISONING.
Some Testimony that it is Easily Con-
tracred by the Eating of Meats
Left Standing in
Tin Cans.
Saratoga, Wyo.
Jan. IA. 1900.


To EDITOR Sun:
| understand that a local chem
list, has attempted to ridicuie the
statement. that the bacteria found
in the gelatinous substance about
canned and pressed meats. after
exposure to the air, is fatal to
human health and life. 1t is
strange that such a simple scien-
tific fact should meet with ridi-
cule from any enlightened indivi-
dual in this day and age of the
world, when repeated analysis and
experiments by leading chemists,
all over the world, have proved it
an indisputable fact, and the
medical records show the many
deaths by poisoning from the
above cause. These germs, when
exposed to the oxygen of the air,
form a Preventative acid, which
acts on the lead contained IN all
tin, producing a form of lead poi
son, communicating the food to
such an extent as to prove dan
gerous when taken into the hu-
man stomach and frequently lead
to a fatal termination, as we all
know.
Mrs. j. NJ BRowDER.
We ~cheerfully give place to the
above letter. The article in the
last issue of The Sun was solely
to warn people of the danger
which turks in canned goods, af-
ter the can has been opened and
its contents left standing in the
can. Lead poisoning may not
follow eating anything but can
ned meats, but certainly some kind
of poisoning, whether it be lead or
stannic, follows eating canned veg
etables and fruits under the same
circumstances.
But every community possesses
men, and women too, who read a
local paper with the sole object
of finding something to criticise
or condemn, though we are happy
to say that we have not many of
that class in this valley. The
Sun makes no pretentions to a
knowledge Of chemistry, but it
does lay claim to a desire to bene-
fit the public as much as posi-
bic, hence the article on lead poi
soning last week.

In reply to the above commun-

in this campaign to meet local con-
ditions, and his public utterances
have been Inconsistent with either
his own convictions or the prac.
tice of his constituents. He Is for
free silver in the west and silent
on the issue in the east. He ia
vors consent of the governed in
TIE Philippines, but does not con
demn it in the south: he is against
all trusts but fails to condemn those
fostered by the trust magnates who
are managing and supporting his
campaign. Roosevelts questions
are these:
First-1f elected, Mr.. Bryan,
will you paw the obligations of the
nation in gold or silver?
Second-Will you refuse to &C.
cept the electoral votes of North
Carolina, because obtained with
out the consent of the governed,
ard will you now at once denounce
the action of your party associates
who helped to nominate you for
establi ,hing by the constitution in
North Carolina the doctrine that
one man is good enough to gov
ern another without his consent?
Third-Will you denounce your
party associates in congress who
voted ON June last that the ma
tional government should not be
given power to control trusts? You
say that all trusts are bad-will
you denounce as hypocrite your
party associates who support you
on that platform and yet them
selves are benefciaries of the cot
ton bale, whiskey and Ice trusts?
This question is not to be met
that there are trusts In which the
republicans are interested. The
point is question Of good faith or
hypocrisy. If all the trusts are
bad, as you represent, then what
right have you to be supported by
and accepting the support of Sen.
ator Jones and Mr.. Croker? Gro
ker, who to public denunciation
OF trusts, adds private membership
in them?
