. WONDERFUL GOVERNORS MES.
SAGE.

Governor White of West Virginia
car hardly be said to have won a ma.
tional reputation, but he is evidently
a man Of vast resources and indom-
liable energy, and he seems to be pos
sessed of a determination to give the
people of his state the full value of the
salary they pay him. His recent an
nual message is said to be much longer
than any other governors message
that has been produced in recent years.
1t is claimed by the people of West
Virginia, in fact, that Governor Whites
message is the longest on record.
A few brief extracts from this grand
state paper occupied nineteen col
umns in an ordinary newspaper. Print
ed in common nonpareil type one news
paper column wide the message would,
it is estimated, reach from Red Bank,
N. J., to What Cheer. la. Nobody has
had time as yet to count the words
in this wonderful message, and down
in West Virginia one of the papers
proposes to offer q prize of a hair chain
to the first person who can furnish sat
isfactory proof that he or she has read
the document through.
Governor Whites achievement is
one that deserves the highest praise.

Power In Chinese Nostrums.

l have always heard that Chinese
medicines are cry powerful" said
the city salesman, 'but l never had
any idea Of what a tremendous effect
they were capable Of producing on
the system till I saw a Doyers street
Chinaman take a pill the other day,
and then I realized that one dose of
a Celestial compound can safely be
warranted to kill or cure. Never in
my born days did l see such a pill.
How on earth the fellow ever got 1t
down is a mystery. 1t was fully as
big as q pigeons egg, and, so the
patient told me afterward. fearfully
bitter. Upon inquiry found that that
was a fair sample Of most Chinese
remedies. No matter what the nature
of the medicine it is generally made
up into enormous pills, whose natur-
ally bad taste is modified by nothing
but a little licorice. These pills are
inclosed in wax capsules which pre-
serve them from the air and keep
them from being broken to pieces be-
fore their time. Aside from the pills
the only remedies used by orthodox
Chinese in New York are a medicinal
oil which they rub on the temples to
cure headache, and a liquid made by
boiling down the leaves. stems. seeds
and roots Of certain plants in a guam.
tity Of drinking water. According to
my Doyers street authority, this fluid
medicine is even worse than the pills

OUR BUILDING ASSOCIATION.

For twenty-five years local building
associations nave afforded the people
OF Laramie an exceedingly good invest,
ment for small monthly savings. Dur.
ing all that time the profits OF the
home associations have averaged more
than 10 per cent. and it is extremely
gratifying to note that this handsome
profit has been realized during the past
year. In one thing the local associa.
ton has been extremely fortunate, the
choice of trustees. From the very in.
ception of building associations in this
city there has not been a single in.
stance wherein there was the least
suspicion of wrong doing on the part
of any man intrusted with this import.

ot~the members are looked after with
the Utmost fidelity. The losses, even

OF this kind is obtained through per.
forming the duties honestly and well.

Writing annual messages and making
them so long that they will never be

than are unlimited annual messages.

Dislocated Her Shoulder.

Mrs. Johanna soderholm, of Fergus
Falls, Mimi, fell and dislocated her
shoulder. She had a surgeon get It
back In place as soon as possible, but
1t was quite sore and panied her very
much. Her o mentioned that he had
seen Chamberlain's Pain Balm adver-
tised for sprains and soreness, and she
asked him to buy her a bottle of it,
which he did. It quickly relieved her

Of the frozen rivers or bays. The kyak

umiak, also a skin boat, will hold fifty
people and all their belongings, and 1t

In summer away from the water the

fculties of transportation, as well as
its Importance for every enterprise,

tide or storm threatening immediate
destruction. The ~prospector, the
simplest unit of the invading army, go

ing from forty to eighty pounds-a
heavy load, whether in winters snow
or summers mud. whether climbing
mountain passes or fording and swim
ming torrential streams. Under such
conditions fifty miles is a long dis
lance for a camp to be reached and
maintained. Had it not been for the
natural summer highway Of the Yukon
there could never have been such a
camp as Dawson. The head passes
of the Yukon and the river itself
were at that time the only possible
direct road to the Klondike. Under
such conditions the pack horse adds
little to the solution of the problem.

DEFENDS THE LAND LAWS.

It Is refreshing at this time, when
the inexperienced east is clamoring for
the repeal of the land laws, to have a
ripe westerner take the center of the
stage and read them a lesson from the
book of experience. In a recent inter.
view with the Washington Post Sen.
ator Warren takes strong ground
against the repeal of the Communication
clause Of the homestead law, the des.
ert act and the timber and stone act.
In referring to the Communication pro,
vision Of the homestead law, Senator
Warren is of the opinion that it af.
fords frequent opportunity to relieve
great hardship. He says:
1.-The prevailing era of prosperity
has greatly increased the extent and
character of uses to which lands can
be put. and the price has gone up &C.
cordingly. This has increased the de
mand for public lands, and has caused
sorted to which permit the full acqui.
sition of title in the shortest possible
time. Public lands growing good mer.
charitable timber are becoming scarce.
This has given rise to the frequent ap-
plication of the community provision
of the homestead law, under which the
claimant goes upon timber land, main,
tains a fourteen months residence,
with the least possible expense; then
pays the stipulated $1.25 per acre, and
asks for a government patent. This is
not home building by homeseekers,
and is a p%erversion Of the homestead
law, the browning purpose of which
was to provide homes for the homeless.
Lands valuable only for their tim
Der are often worth many times the
government price and are frequently
taken with 10 other idea than that Of
making money out of the timber. This,
however, a 1e remedied by enacting
that the homestead law shall not ex-
tend to lands chiefly valuable for their
timber. In this way this particular
abuse of the homestead law would be
defeated and the benefits Of the COM
mutation would be still preserved for
the real homesteader.
