that the names OF Joe Bailey ana BOD

law partner, Mr. stri5bling, brought I'M
due pressure to bear upon County Attor-
ney Thomas OF McLennsn to induce him
to settle and dismiss the penalty and
criminal suits against the Waters Pierce
Oil company and its agents in that county.
In other words, they are to open the
ball with attacks upon the integrity Of
Mr.. Bailey and some OF his personal
friends, and Hogg, Harrison, Stafford ct
al are to chime in and help develop one
of the most remarkable mud singing
plays ever made in this State, hoping by
the use Of slime and Islander TO prlhs
about a change in the popular sentiment
toward Bailey to the extent Of causing a
reversal of the practically unanimous IN
structions given for him for the United
States senate.

townships 10 of ranges II and -, and
township 1G of range II, pending an
examination with a view to creating
the Grow Creek Timber Reserve" in
Wyoming.
Since the withdrawal Of this tract
of land from settlement, several errOn-
eous filings have been allowed and
much of the land has been passed to
patent through railway selections, the
title Of the Union Pacific having at
tached prior to the withdrawal.
The prime object of the reserve is
to protect the growth Of timber at the
fountain head Of Crow creek, Dale
creek, Harvey creek and other small
streams, thus preserving the water sup
ply of the city of Cheyenne and other
places. Last winter an order was is
sued directing MIR. c. W. GaTbutt, su-
perintendent of forestry for Wyoming.

ed reserve and report thereon. As a
result of his report, under date of May

an infantry regiment on the Union

Its strains were hardly ceased when

other in challenge and answer, and SO
the musical duel was sustained until

north saw before him the green fields
and the dear surroundings of his far

scented again the breath of jasmine

doorway watching. saw hands waving
their sad farwells. heard songs in the
night wine from voices dear as re-

the silence that fell on both armies,
the arch of memory rose from either
