Returns from the other provinces come in
slowly, owing TO the heavy rains. In Pinar del
Rio there seems TO be no doubt OF the election
of Gonzalo de Queseda, RiUs Rivera and Civil
Governor Quies. Nothing definite is yet known
here TO Santiago because of the difficulty Of

tricts there but IT is reported that Juan Gual-
berto Gomez is elected.
In Puerto Principe Sehores Cisneros and Silva

the Federals will win. No definite news of the

THOMPSON TO HAVE A LAW CASE.

Our attention has been called to a
special dispatch from Evanston, in the
Denver News, which states that Gen.
eral John Chawles Thompson, in an
interview says, that he has been gross.
ly maligned by the publication of the
fact that he wrote or said the women's
vote in Wyoming was the easiest
thing in the world to get and the east.
est thing to keep and the easiest thing
tics" He denies the utterance of these
words.
Before this he claimed that he was
not the man mentioned in the anti.suh.
rage bulletin as General Thompson,
but the amusing part of the interview
and the one which we desire to call
attention to is a threat to bring libel
suits against the newspapers in Wyo'
ming that republished extracts from
the aforesaid bulletin. This he prom.
Uses to do as soon as the campaign is
over and when there is a lull or lack
of interest in the election.
We should think that the large and
lucrative practice of General Thomp-
son would preclude the possibility of
such suits. He should bear in mind
that it would be necessary for him to
prove in a suit for damages that his
reputation is injured and, secondly. to
substantiate by reliable testimony the
exact amount of damage financially in
flicted. Furthermore, to be consistent
he should be compelled to make restf.
tuition to the people of this state for
the gross Misrepresentation Of the in
dustries of Wyoming.
An active and persistent calamity
bowler like Thompson can do more
harm in ten years continuous assaults
upon the material interests of the
state and the SANDER Of its public men
than a famine, postilence and war. An
other score which Wyoming has to set
tie with Thompson is the desperate ef-
