SKETCH
OF THE CAREER OF THE NEW MA.
TIoNAL COMMITTEEMAN FOR
WYOMING.
Hon George e. Pexton Of Evanston a
Native Of New York and Engaged
in Hotel Business at Evanston in
1s96-Member Of the State Com
mittee.

A special from Evanston to the Den.
yer Republican. concerning the new
national committeeman for Wyoming
will be Of interest 1t is as follows:
George f. Pexton, who has been ap
pointed to the vacancy on the Republi'
can national committee from Wyoming
caused by the resignation of Hon. vii
lis Van Devanter. is proprietor of the
Pacific hotel at this place and has re
sided here since 1887.
Mr.. Pexton vas born in Vernon. N
Y. Before engaging in the hotel bust
ness here he was engaged in other bust
ness enterprises. He became sole
owner of the Pacific hotel in 1896 ant
in 1898 bought the Hotel Marx. He is
alsOinterested in hotels at Cumberland
Wyo.. and Ogden. Utah.
Mr.. Pexton is 4 member of the state
republican committee, is a prominent
Mason and a member of the Elks. He
has a wife and two children.

democrats about appointments. He
says: Il have sought to consider the
feeling Of the people of each locality
so far as l could consistently do SO
without sacrificing principle" He will
not change the course he has marked
out for himself because it runs counter
to an unreasoning and wicked rveju-
dice.
The president will MOI recede from a
just INT honorable position which
needs no defense and should require no
explanation. All right minded Ameri-
cans are with him. The south should
admit that the president is acting in
furtherance of the true interests of that
region. Southern whites. instead of
behaving as II they believed the pro-
per status of the vast negro population
of the south to be hat of an ignorant
and servile ace, should agree with the
president that in the long run 1t is SAT.
err for everybody il we act on the mot
to all men up rather than on hat of
some men down."
The president has addressed the
southern people with perfect good Ia.
ture. 1t remains to be see whether
they will reply with equal courtesy
and dignity.-Chicago Tribune.

A MEASURE OF MERIT.
Laramie Citizens Should Weigh Well
This Evidence.

Proof of merit lies in the evidence.
Convincing evidence in Laramie.
Is not the testimony Of strangers,
But the endorsement of Laramie peo-
pie.
That's the kind of proof given here
The statement of a Laramie citizen.
-Jch.. E. Burke, carpenter. Of 1865
Front ST., says: IF sharp pain across
the loins especially after STOPPING or
lifting. added to an annoying difficulty
with the kidney sechetions, are positive
signs that mans kidneys require the
use Of medicine to correct their action
then mine did. Noticing Doan's Kid
ney Pills advertised as a specific for
the kidneys and knowing that they
were highly recommended induced me
to go to the Laramie Drug Cos store
for a box. This remedy acts directly
upon the kidneys as stated. 1t washes,
purifies and gently purges those organs
until either over excitement or weak
ness disappears. When the kidneys
are brought to a normal condition the
backache ceases"

The March McClure's a Remarkable
Number.

The March McClure's will not only
be read: it will be talked about for
many days to come. Lincoln Steffens'
The Shamelessness of st. Louis is an
article that can't be lodged; it is. in
deed, az Mr.. Steffens says, something
new in the history Of American munich
pal democracy" The terrible story of
the despoilment of a great city by pro-
fessional boodlers has never been SO
powerfully told. OF distinct import
ance. also is Samuel Moffett's article.
'The War on the Locomotive" which
is a surprising revelation of what the
trolley people are up to, in the new
%interurban development of electric
travel. Miss Tarbell's fifth chapter of
Standard Oil History treats of The
Price Of Trust Building" and must
certainly not be missed. Frank H.
Spearman has a splendid character
sketch Of a remarkable man, John L..

Jail, Chicago. "Whitman-Tamer of
Men" is the name of it. Fiction is plen-
tiful and first class.

THE PRESIDENT TO THE SOUTH,

President Roosevelt's letter to the
editor of the Atlanta Constitution is
a letter to the southern whites. 1t is
a frank. clear statement of the motives
which have actusted-him in making
-appointments-espeoially as regards
colored appointments to federal offices
in that part of the country. His let
ter sets forth facts which are known
to his southern critics. He gives rea-
sons for his course which would bring
them over to his way of thinking If
they we're not enslaved by prejudices
from which it seems to be impossible
for them to free themselves.
The president say the prime tests
applied by him in making appointments
have been those of character. fitness,
and ability" The men whom he has
put in office in the south represent not
merely an improvement upon those
whose places they took but upon the
whole a higher standard of federal SER
vice than has hitherto been attained
in the communities in question"
No one denies that. About one in
every 100 of his appointees has been a
colored man The ability Of the color
ed appointees to discharge the duties
Of their Offices is not questioned. The
only objection made to them is the
color Of their skins. The southern

Mild Recreation
During the year 1902, two men in
America were killed in prize fights,
and, in a season of three months just
passed, t~wenty-one men have been
killed playing football. Fifteen of
these died from broken necks or brok-
en- backs. How many men have been
ruptured and permanently injured in
various other ways no man can say.

MR.. CoRTHELL AND THE LIBRARY

Mr.. Corthell's antics over the Carne-
gle library are about the s~hallowest
buncombe eve perpetrated on the
people Of this community. His play is
to the gallery, in which he hopes there
may be located n few voters. The
Boomerang, of which he is the general
factotum, in a single week took all
sides Of the library proposition except
to oppose having a library. In its Is
sue Of Feb. % 1t favored a library very
strongly, but opposed accepting Mr..
C%arnegie's offer. showing in the most
conclusive manner that it was not
seeking to " money for the people
of this county. 1t then desired hat the
people should not only furnish the site,
but that they should build the library
as well. In its issue of Feb. &c, it came
sQuarely out in favor of accepting the
offer made by Mr.. Carnegie, taking
practically the same position it did at
the time the offer was first made by
the steel man.
At the meeting held at the court
house Feb. 26, Mr.. Corthell, the n
person who has supreme control at
the Boomerang office, talked against
accepting the offer and voted no" AS
county commissioner he urges condi-
lions at present entirely foreign to the
matter in hand, undoubtedly for the
purpose Of making political capital,
and voted mo" on the proposition to
levy a tax for maintenance.
He is trying to pose in about three
different attitudes before the people Of
this county. AS a citizen, he gives it
out that he is In favor of a library. but
would have the people pay for it, thus
showing the hypocrisy of his profess
sions Of economy. AS editor and man
ager of the Boomerang he is both be
yant" and "forninst." winding up in
favor of the entire proposition. AS
county commissioner, he opposes the
plan in toto.
He had better call a meeting and
organize himself; but possibly he has
and is now working through his var
ious committees.

To prepare a meal for soldiers in the
field, who count themselves lucky If
they get pork and beans, coffee and
bread, is mere diversion in comparison
with the preparation of a dinner, for
example, that will satisfy the palates
of a brigade Of wealthy people in a city
of nerves and notions-the men mostly
epicures and the women exacting.
Each cooked dish must pass through
four hands before it appears in the
spacious, gilded dining rooms over
head. The scullions do the prelimin-
airy work. Then it passes to the table
men," who get it In shape for the fire.
The cooks then hover over 1t until it is
done to "a turn and the walters. af-
ter reviewing it critically, rush it up
stairs to the fastidious diner.
There is a spotless butcher shop and
a completely stocked grocery attached
to this cuisine, the table supplies being
drawn from these adjunct stores by or
der from the big chef. This has been
proved to be a great time and money
saving scheme.
The kitchen of the Waldorf-Astoria
occupies more space, is more strictly
modern in it's appointments, employs
more real chefs and expert assistants
and turns out cooked things
each perfect in its kind-in q day than
any kitchen on earth. not excepting
the celebrated hostelries of the Mosco-
vite empire itself. II the verdict Of in
ductive science be worthy of accept
ance-that what 4 man thinks and be-
comes is dependent to an incredible ex-
tent upon the choice and preparation of
his food-then there are these IL high
priests of the culinary cult in the Wal
autocrats indeed, and their
colossal cuisine becomes exalted into
. veritable field Of destiny"
