Matters have been very quiet in
court circles for some time. The
long silence has been broken and bus
mess has again begun to look up.
On Saturday there was one plain
drunk served up by Marshal Cleve.
Justice Heath assessed it So and trim
mings which was paid and it was al
lowed to go on its repentent way.
On the same day the State of Wyo-
ming VS. A. f. and Bell Bush was
called. This is a case in which F. X.
Carney, representing j. G. Teller,
made complaint against the above
defendants, charging them with forci-
BILE entry and detainer, in that they
refused to give up possession of the
bunk house, cook house and other
premises, at the tie camp on Brush
creek, occupied by them. DEPENDENTS
claim that they held them in order to
obtain the money due them from
Teller. The first warrant being de
f~ective, the case was dismissed and
the defendants re-arrested on a new
complaint for the same offence.
The case was postponed until the 9th
of March TO give defendants time to
procure evidence. j. j. Rowen and

Has writ a Novel.

Mr.. E A. Bingham has severed his
connection with The Republican to ac-
crpt a responsible position with the
Denver Post. He is a man with great
intellectual capacity and is destined to
make his mark in the literary world.
In the near future the Bowen Merrell
Company Of Indianapolis will publish a
novel from his talented pen. 1t is said
to be something entirely new in the
literary field and founded upon facts
obtained from thrilling tragedies in
real life. The TACT that the Bowen

sufficient guarantee OF its character.

THE Wyoming Tribune makes some
rather drastic criticisms on the action
Of Governor Richards in appointment
az Col. CT G. Coutant, OF the Clipper, as
successor to Judge Slaughter in the
office of State Librarian. As Judge
Slaughter is no years Of age and very
feeble and as the appointment in no
way reflects on his character or integ
ri'v. we fail to see that the Governor
hni committed any indiecretiun in hp
pointing his successor. Judge Slaugh

The Gambling Question.

The 0easnre against gambling is now
q law and. one year from tomorrow. all
gambling IN this state is supposed to
cease. But will it? We all know that
it will not, but that it will stink from
sight. and hide away in dens. and rage
on just the same as 1t does now.
Like "a fever in the blood such things
cannot be suppressed OF driven out of
existence. Since we know that it is
bound to exist would it not be better
that it should live in sight of the world
ana under tie constant surveillance OF
the lawY
If we knew, beyond a doubt. that
it would do away with gambling then
we should continue to give it our earn
est support.
No one deprecates gambling or drink
ing and az their attendant evils any
more thau we do. We are fully alive to
the misery, crime and depreciation that
follow III their train. But we also know,
that you cannot convert a man by
force-you must reach his heart by love
aud sympathy and mercy If you would
work ii change that is to he Of any bene-
iii. We beiIeve IN the universal broth
erLood of man as set forth by all the
great Teachers that have enlightened
mankind on the way of life, Holding
tenaciously to that faith we feel that
the Sins oi one man are the sins of all.
Scott at tins doctrine as much as you
please it yet remains that it is the great
ruliug power of the world. That such
Is the tact is evidenced by our continual
modification of the rigors of law, by
prison reform, and in a thousand other
ways open to the seeing eye. The
world moves forward and it is this great
aud lmmutable law which:
Ever at toll, it brings to loneliness,
All ancient wrath and wreck"
Taking tins view of the question we
do not believe that gambling can be
suppressed by law any more than evil
oil any kind can be crushed out by the
strong hand of force. Force, when ap-
pied To the heart of man. hardens it,
Nothing will move the heart but com
passion. The wise parent encourages
hIs child to speak Of what it's mind con
taIns. He may deprecate its thoughts,
wishes and desires, but he wants to
know what they are and thus be able
to combat them and, by gentle admoni-
ton and parental love, lead his child in
the right direction il possible. II the
child is not encouraged to speak its
mind. if it is reprimanded and beaten
for expressing its thought, it will still
have those thoughts, but they will fes-
ter in silence, to break out in debauch-
eIy. and crime later in life. Since it is
wisdom in the parent to know what his
child thinks and does, should a commu-
nifty be less wise? We know that gamb-
ling is "a great evil-even a gambler will
admit as much-but will it be any less
evil when it is hidden from sight? Will
it not tester and breed in silence. to the
still greater detriment OF the public?
These are grave questions with which
every man, who desires the uplifting OF
humanity, should concern himself.

THINKS PEARY WILL
REACH NORTH POLE

New York. Sept. 21.-IIerbert l..
Bridgeman, secretary of the Peary
Arctic Club. who conducted the Peary
relief expedition of this year. and the
young men who accompanied him
have returned home With them came
Mrs. Peary and her little girl, who was
born in the Arctic regions eight years
ago.
Next April" said Mr.. Bridgeman.
''Peary will start for the pole from
Cape Heckla, the highest point OF land
he has discovered in the west. which Is
only 500 miles from the pole If he
should never reach it, his discoveries
have been important enough 10 war
rant the time he has spent in the north
but he will reach the pole"
Mr.. Bridgeman said he had the sat
isfaction of knowing that Peary had
n supply of walrus meat large enough
to carry him through his undertaking.
The explorer returned with the
Bridgeman party as far as Cape Hen
schel, where his winter headquarters
are.
-Four days after it occurred. Mr..
Bridgeman at Sydney heard of the
shooting of President Mckinley.
Peary will not hear of it until next
summer.
1.-THE last relief expedition" said Mr..
Bridgeman, was the eleventh sent
out by the Arctic Club. They have
lost all elements of the dramatic We
were twice in danger. however. Once
we got caught between Il glacier and
an ice foe. and went aground on n
muddy bank. We were fast for sever
nj hours, and the danger was lest the
ice pack should sweep in around us
and make us prisoners. The captain
pounded a hole in the nose of the foe,
and fastened a big hawser to the foe.
and in ten minutes the great body of
ice, whose movement you could not
see Mt all, had swung us clear of the
whole thing.
''The most serious time was when
we got caught between the lip of ice,
under water. and the glacier We got
away all right, however"

THE SCHLEY INQUIRY
WILL SOON BE ENDED

Washington, Sept. 21.-The Schley
court of inquiry re-convened yester-
day, and before adjournment eXamin-
ed four witnesses. The most import
ant incident of the day was the deci-
sion of the court withdrawing Il ques-
ton put by the court itself, asking n
witness to give his opinion concerning
point under controversy.
The witness was Rear Admiral Hig
ginson, who participated in the Santi-
ago campaign as captain of the battle
ship Massachusetts,. This vessel Mt
one time was II part of the flying
squadron commanded by Commodore
Schley, and the court asked him to
state whether all possible measures
were taken to capture or destroy the
Spanish vessel Cristobal Colon, as it
lay in Santiago harbor from May 9th
to June LIST, 1898.
Counsel for Admiral Schley object
ed to the question on the ground that
a reply would involve an opinion, and
.ot statement of facts. Judge Advo-
.ate Lemly admitted that the prece-
dents were against questions of this
character. and the court withdrew this
interrogatory.
1t is generally admitted that this de-
cision will have the effect of material
ly shortening the term of the court, as

LONDON NEWSPAPERS
CRITICISE BOER WAR

London, Sept. 22.-While Kruger and
DIR. I.eyds are drawing up petitions to
President Roosevelt and the Car ask
ing them to intervene, the fighting
Beers are helping themselves in South
Africa by celebrating the expiration of
the period in which Lord Kitchener
proclaimed they must surrender by
four notable successes, killing sixty
eight officers and men, wounding six
ty-three and capturing five guns and
300 men.
The situation is singularly like the
opening of the war two years ago. the
names of the same places recurring in
the dispatches. Utrecht. where Major
Cough was entrapped, was the scene
of similar ambuscade eighteen
months back. Acton Homes, where
the Beers yesterday reappeared, is
eighteen miles southwest of Lady
smith. prominent in the early HOSTILE
ties. and the Natal colonials are mus
tering for the defense of the Tugela,
as when General Joubert invaded Ma
tai in 1890.
In Cape Colony fighting is again 60
ing on south of Stormberg, in terri
tory traversed by raiders and their
pursuers half dozen times.
The governments publication of
these reverses causes an outburst of
evaporation against the conduct of
the war, not in South Africa. but by
the ministry. The great ministerial
journals accuse the government of try
ing to run the war ION the cheap" by
not providing Lord Kitchener with suf-
ficient resources.
The Times. while it has no misgiv-
ings as to the final issue. accuses the
home authorities of lack of organized
sustained effort, of disposition to
postpone military for financial consid
erations. and of failure to grasp the
moral and intellectual damage which
the prolongation of the struggle in,
tlicts upon the empire.

TRIAL OF FRANK MAHANY
FOR SHOOTING w. A. WOMACK

Gunnison, Colo, Sept. 21.-(Denver
Republican Special0-Frank Mahany,
charged with the killing of w. a. Wo-
mack mt Grand Mesa lakes, Delta coun-
ty, was on trial yesterday before
Judge Stevens in the District Court.
Mrs. Mahany and her four children,
Mrs. Womack and her daughter. and
Mrs. Neighbor We're present. Mahany
appeared somewhat nervous.
In opening the case District Attor-
ney McAIullin presented map of the
lakes and reviewed the shooting.
Eleven witnesses, including Mrs. Wo-
mack, were sworn in by the prosecu-
ton. The first two examined were
DR.. Samuel Il. Houts. coroner of Delta
county, and Dr.. Hick. II practicing
physician of Delta, both of whom had
held an autopsy on WOmack's body mt
his home on Surface creek after his
death. The first shot fired by Ma
hany hit Womack in the hip and was
only flesh wound. The second shot
was the fatal one. 1t entered the left
side at about the eighth rib and lodged
in the ribs on the right side, penetrat-
ing in It's course both lungs, the spine
and the upper part of the liver. Both
bullets We're produced in court.
The most important witness exam
ined by the prosecution was Frank
Hinchman, who was wounded by
Warden Mahany at the time cf the
shooting. He stated he was in Wo-
mack's employ and went with Wo-
mack's party to fish in Grand Mesa
lakes. A party of men was fishing in
Beaver Dam lake when Game Warden
,iahany rode up and forbade them
fishing and asking Hinchman and
Womack if they had n permit to fish
In the lakes. Hinchman stated he
had and on request of Mahany to see
it he refused. saying he did not have
to show it to Mahany. He said he had
since lost the permit
Mahany left them and they proceed
ed to Island lake, the most important
of the group, because it was the
spawning place of the fish. Mahany
appeared and again warned the Wo-
mack party not to fish in the lakes.
Hinchman said: "Didn't l tell you to
shut up? Womack added: "Stay
