AS time wears on it begins to look
as though the United States was not so
terribly prompt in the matter of in
Sailing exhibits after all Many Amer
lean visitors are disappointed at the
backward condition OF some OF the
exhibits and they are almost unani-
nous in criticising the national which,
they say, is not at all creditable to the
United States. 1t is doubtless true that
the newspapers talk about the surpass-
ing excellence of the United States ex-
hibits has been somewhat overdrawn.

The postoffice is doing a rushing
business both in receiving and in for
warding mail. All the mail to be sent
10 the United States is sealed IN the
regulation U. S. mail bags and sent d.
rectly to America without passing
through the hands of the French postal
authorities at all. This is great
convenience as it saves day or more
in the time of transmission from here
to New York.

At one of their joint discussions
which took place in Kentucky some
years ago Tom Stuart, then editor of
the Winchester Democrat, gave his op-
ponent, l. y. Boone, descendant of
the great Daniel, a blow that fairly
knocked him out Of the race for the
legislature.
Boone was making hisregular speech.

Is the Democratic Party the Party Of
Expansion !?

Is the Democratic Party the Party Of
Expansion
There was nothing partisan
about the war with Spain. The
whole American people, with only
individual exceptions here and
there, demanded that our govern
ment should put an end to Cuba's
intolerable situation. Nor was
there anything partisan about the
terms of the treaty of peace that
was subsequently entered into.
Everything that our government
has done since that treaty of peace
was signed, in respect to the Phil
ippine Islands has seemed to us to
have been done in good faith, on
principles of which we have no
reason to be ashamed, and with
fair prospects Of highly creditable
results in the end. What is fur
ther than all this, We beg to say,
with the most unqualified empha-
sis, that we have not the shadow of
doubt that if Mr.. Bryan had been
elected president of the United
States in 1896, instead of Mr.. Nc
Kinley, he would, in his capacity
as chief executive and as comman-
der in chief of the army and navy,
have carried on a war with Spain
for the relief of Cuba, and that
this war would have resulted in
the annexation of all the territory
that we acquired by virtue of the
peace treaty at Paris. Histori-
cally speaking, the democratic
rather than the republican party
has throughout our history in
stinctively favored expansion and
annexation; and at this moment
the democratic south, if circum-
stances permitted the expression
of its genuine sentiment, would
probably be shown to have far
less misgiving about the advis-
ability of our exercising sovereign
ity in the Philippines, as we'll as
in other quarters than the repub-
lican north. From "The Progress
of the World" in the American
Monthly Review of Reviews for
October.

Mr.. Jacob Rils, who has for

one of his stanchest assistants in

an unusual and peculiarly interest

Theodore Roosevelt, Sr., the father
of Governor Roosevelt. The OBJ

in many ways, Mr.. Roosevelt in

1t has been decided that per-
son who writes letter to a pub
Usher and induces HIM to insert
an advertisement on a promise to
pay for same on presentation of
bill, when he has no intention of
paying said bin, is guilty of OBJ
tanning money under false pre-
lenses. The court characterizes
this transaction as using the mails
for fraudulent purposes. Pub

this fact and fake advertisers who
have been guilty of obtaining
space in this manner will do well
to quit the practice.

Shall Laramie have the biggest and
grandest Fourth Of July celebration
that has taken place in the state ir
the last ten years?
This is a question the general com.
mittee of the fire department, which
met informally last night, are anxious
to have answered definitely and soon.
How it is to be answered will depend
upon the business men of the city.
No definite plans were agreed upon
at last nights meeting, at which it
placed before the public through the
press, and thus let the citizens know
what is expected. A subscription pa
per will be prepared and circulated
and If the necessary funds are secured
a program will at once be formulated
will be in keeping with the phe-
nomenal prosperity that is being en-
joyed throughout southern Wyoming
at the present time.
1t is the desire of the general COM
mittee that the subscription papers be
circulated by a double committee, in
which the board of trade and business
men shall shave equal representation,
at least, with the department. Nor
is there a desire to monopolize the
program, but that it should be an elab-
crate one and sufficiently varied to
please everybody. II. however, no onS
else cares to Il the responsibility
of arranging for the days pleasures
the fire department will accept it If
the business men and citizens will do
their part.
1t Is understood that there will be
no formal celebration of Independence
day this year at either Cheyenne or
Rawlins, so hat II a first-class pro-
gram for Laramie is arranged and pro-
'perly advertised, there should be an
attendance of several hundred visitors
from each Of these cities, besides large

delegations from the smaller interme,
diate towns. In short, the committed
estimates hat there would be $50.
strangers in Laramie on the Fourth
if the proper thing is done.
One prominent business man illus,
trates the benefits to be anticipated
by the merchants from such an assem-.
blase by saying that whereas on an or.
binary, quiet Fourth. with no program
of exercises, his receipts were $50, on
another Fourth where there was a big
crowd here to witness the sports, he
took in 1916. He says, speaking gen.
orally, the receipts of the business
men would be trebled.
On the other hand, if there is no for
NAL celebration here, Laramie will be
a deserted city, for the people will Ell
Their go to the mountains or fishing
grounds, or they will go to some other
city where they can celebrate as be
comes a real live American citizen
The answer to the question of celebra.
tion or no celebration, means, there
fore, thousands of dollars to the bust
ness men of Laramie.
If the final arrangement of the pro-
mittAe. it will begin with a varied list
of athletic contests, races and games,
something like this:
A hub and hub race between two
teams, which will be exciting and in
teresting; a wet test race; hurdle
races, foot races of 100 and 200 yards,
bicycle races, climbing creased pole;
drilling contest; wheelbarrow, sack,
potato and pig races.
1t is figured that, with the base bal,
game between the Cheyenne BLACK
Stockings" and the Laramie Tigers"
these sports will occupy the day and
early part of the evening and it is pro-
posed to follow them with a street car
nival of one or two hours duration,
and when darkness has settled down, by
u III uiSpiuy VI u No. II 10 %
timated that the total cost of such a
program as is suggested would be in
the neighborhood of 5000 and this sun
the committee will endeavor to raise
in the ann already indicated. If
the committee is unsuccessful in its eff
forts, the proposition will be dropped.
AS one of the prominent committee
men said today. I'VE want to have a
great big hurrah time and a town
crowded with people, or we don't want
to waste any time on it. With the i'm
mense number of people who could be
attracted from neighboring cities and
towns, and from the grades where
thousands of men are employed, there
ought t be no trouble in making 1t
the grandest and biggest Fourth Of
July celebration the state has seen for
ten years" =.

They denied that the company con

enough to employ the time Of the man
