Surgeon.

1t happened that bulldog saw
its masters broken arm often dress
ed by a surgeon. One day the same
surgeon was surprised by paving
and scratching at his door. When
the door was opened he beheld two
dogs-his friends bulldog and an
other. The latter held up one of its
fore legs to the surgeon, who saw
that it was broken. He set the
broken limb in splints and in due
course the bones reunited and Sic

casion this very surgeon was sum
moned to his door by the persistent
yelping of dog standing on three
legs. The doctor examined the
fourth limb and found pin stick
ing in it, which prevented the ami
mai from using it without great
pain. The pin was extracted, and
the dog went away in ease.

cut is now in progress from this shaft
to the vein. and it is understood that
the company plans to begin continuous
ore shipments as soon as the ore body
is sufficiently opened up in this Cross
cut to enable it to take the same out
fast enough for continuous shipments.
The company uncovered an extern
sive lead of covelite in the vein right
opposite the new shaft. and it is re-
ported That the formations so far m
countered in the work now in progress
at that point indicate a large body of
this bonanza ore.
The operations of this company are
gress in the district, and the vigor
with which the work is being pushed
indicates that it expects to take out
and ship ore shortly on a large scale.

WYOMING RECONSIDERATION

In the past three elections Wyo
ming has been carried by the repubii-
cans, and there is no 8 to doubt
that this record will be kept up In the
coming struggle" said Hon. J.. A. Van
Orsdel, attorney general Of that state,
at the Riggs House. Mr.. Van Orsdel
is also chairman Of the republican e n
trail committee. and is recognized as
one of the ablest political managers in
the west.
There will be an interesting race
for gubernatorial honors next fall. but
l am inclined to the belief that the
nomination will go to B. B. Brooks Of
Casper, a wealthy cattle owner, and a
a who stands well with all classes.
Our next legislature will elect . Unit
ed States senator, but it is a foregone
conclusion that Senator Clarence D.
Clark will be chosen to succeed him
self. His services at Washington have
been eminently satisfactory, and he
will be given the unanimous vote of his
party."-Washington Post.

STATE E
The Government Is UnselAsh-

The Government 10 Unselfsh-
Few people realize how near Wyo-
ming came to losing the two and a
quarter millions of dollars set aside by
the secretary Of the interior for the
construction Of the Shoshone irriga-
ton reservoir. Owing to an unfor-
tunate misunderstanding of the situa-
ton on the part of some of our people,
the reclamation service has been great
ly embarrassed and the officials have
seriously considered the idea of aban-
doning the project altogether, thinking
that 1t was the desire of the state ad-
ministration to block the progress of
the project.
The credit for the happy adjustment
of he numerous difficulties apparently
existing between the reclamation ser.
vice and the state government belong
entirely to the Wyoming congressional
delegation. Had the influence of
Messrs. Warren, Clark and Mondell
not been so great at Washington, the
money for the Shoshone scheme would
have undoubtedly been withdrawn by
the government, for the reason that
wyoming, 10 all appearances, did not
seem to care for federal assistance in
irrigation matters. Attorney General
a Orsdell has done the state great
service at Washington during the past
three weeks, in assisting in extricating
the state from the unpleasant position
IN which 1t had been placed by its un
wise and over-zealous friends.
II our citizens will stop and reflect
a moment they will perceive that,
through the construction of the sho-
shone reservoir, the national govern.
ment is gratuitously comforting an in.
estimable benefit on our state. Rep
resentatives. therefore, should have the
implicit trust Of our people and the
hearty cooperation of our local author.

THE PANAMA CANAL.

On W~ashington's birthday Hon. Elihu
Root, late secretary Of war. delivered
an address before the Union League
club. Chicago. on the ethics of the
Panama canal. in which he expressed
the following forcible and beautiful
sentiments:
THE Independent ce Of Parma. the
grant to the United States Of the right
to contruct the canal across the 18th.
mus, and the assumption by the United
States of the duty to construct the
canal and to maintain 1t for the equal
benefit of mankind. are accomplished
facts. Nothing can do away with
them. unless it be some future war of
conquest waged against the liberties
Of Panama, and at the same time
against the rights of the United States
held in trust for the commerce Of the
world.
BY all the principles Of Justice
among men and among nations that We
have learned from our fathers and ali
peoples and all government should
maintain, the revolutions in Panama
were right. the people Of Panama we're
entitled to be free again, the isthmus
was theirs and they YER entitled 10
govern it: and 1t would have been q
shameful thing for the government of
the United States to return them again
to servitude.
We shall not get back the money
we spend upon the canal. any more
than we shall get back the money We
have expended to make Cuba free and
Independent. or the money We have
expended to set the people Of the Phil.
ippines on the path Of ordered liberty
n competency for self-government.
But we shall promote a commerce,
We shall unite our Atlantic and Pa.
cifc coasts. We shall render inestim.
able service to mankind. and we shall
grow in greatness and honor and in
the strength that comes from dihicult
tasks accomplished and from the ex'
ercise of the power that strives in the
nature of a great constructive people
