Salt Lake Herald on con-
ditions Prevailing in
Wyoming.
PAST, PRESENT and FUTURE
Mormon Commonwealth Proud to claim
K,nship and Rejoisss In Prosperity
Of this State.

Wyoming is one of the inter.
mountain States with which Utah
always claims kinship, says the
Salt Lake Hearld. In 1904 none
of the mountain Commemorative
prospered more notably than did
Wyoming. The cattle and horses
and sheep on her thousand hills
grew and multiplied, her mines
yielded abundantly and her farms
gave up rich harvests. A safe in
dex of the prosperity of a State is
its bank deposits. Measured by
this standard, Wyoming is in an
enviable condition. Her people
have in the banks of the State
subject to their order, $S,S46, l35.-
"A, an increase of nearly three.
quarters of a million dollars over
1903.
The greatest mineral product
of Wyoming is coal. From Wy
oming coal is SHIPPED into Nebras-
ka, Kansas and Colorado, while
Utah, a coal State though it is,
uses many tons of the Wyoming
product. Thousands of fires in
happy homes throughout the west
are lighted with Wyoming coal.
The value of the coal mined in
Wyoming during the year just
ended was S14,46l 500. This is
many times as much as all the
other minerals taken out of Wy
oming were worth. However,
the State produced $4,000 in
gold, $1,O50,OOO in copper, $780,
geo in silver, S25O,OOO in iron and
$4,000 in stone.
Wyoming has passed beyond
the wild and wolly West stage.
Its people are orderly, as we'll ed
ucated and refined as people any
where. The day of disregard for
human life has passed, along with
! the vigilance committee and the
wild cowpuncher. But the cat
tle industry in Wyoming still
ranks as the most important sing
le branch of endeavor. Wyoming
counts her cattle by the hundred
Thousand. They roam her vast
ranges and wax fat on the tender
grass that abounds there. In 1904
the Wyoming cattle, in spite
of the drop in prices, were worth
ST, 500, 200.
Next in importance are Wyom-
ing sheep. How important the
sheep industry is, may be under
stood from the statement, gather
ed from an official source, that the
sheep owned in Wyoming are
worth IS, 1869, 1863. 80. Last year
3l.37O,OOO pounds of wool were
clipped from these sheep and the
wool was worth an aggregate of
S5,570,420. This is an increase in
wool of 100000 pounds ver 1903
which means a corresponding
increase in value.
The outlook for Wyoming for
1905 is of the best. Outside cap
ital is becoming nor interested
in the State and its vast resources
many of which are yet untouched
|hnd undeveloped, will soon be ex-
plotted. Many of these new pos.
liabilities will be made actual by

There are several questions perplex-
w. r. Ellis as to whether or not Char
ley Luke, an Indian convicted of lar
ceny by bailee, should be granted a
new trial. Luke is alleged to have
borrowed a horse from another Indi-
an and selling the animal.
In the description of the animal
made IN the information the color of
the animal is given as sorrel. Evil
dence of witness stated that the
horse in question is a pinto. That is
the main question upon which Attor-
ney ]. R. Raley, representing the ac-
cused, bases his argument for a new
trial. But there is yet another ques-
tion that has not been brought out.
Both the accused and the complain
ing witness being Indians, has the
state circuit court Jurisdiction to try
the case, or should 1t go before the
United States district court? Four
years ago Columbia George and Toy
Toy, two Umatillas, were tried and
convicted in the state circuit court
of the murder of Anna Edna, a sauaw
They were sentenced to death, but
the supreme court decided that the
trial should have been before the fed
eral court, and they were tried again
and escaped with life sentences.
In the present case an Indian is ac-
cused of stealing from an Indian, but
the horse was disposed of outside OF
the reservation. Decisions of the
United States supreme court and the
various state supreme courts conflict
In regard to which has jurisdiction in
such cases.
Argument for new trial was made
this morning but Judge Ellis reesrved
decision until next Tuesday after
noon.

Baker City, Jan. 21.-A movement
is now on foot among horsemen of
this city for the organization of an
independent racing circuit composed
of this city and Pendleton, inasmuch
as the Northwest Racing association
did not consider either of these places
in fixing their dates for the fall races.
Horsemen here are enthusiastic
over the proposition and believe that
an independent association composed
of Boise, Baker City, La Grande,
Pendleton and Walla Walla could be
organized, and be made highly sue
cessful. All of these points are
horse growing centers and contain
many first-class horses which could
be developed into racing string
equal to any local aggregation TO pe
found anywhere in the West.
Overtures will be made by local
'horsemen to each of these places with
a view to organizing a racing circuit
independent of the Northwest associ-
alton.

Doubts About the Killing of Baker
County Woman.

Baker City, Jan. 2O.-Deputy Sher-
iff Jesse Snow, District Attorney Le-
roy Lomax and the Doctors Dougher-
ty left yesterday for Pine Valley
where they will hold an autopsy upon
the body of the late Mrs. Peck, who
was shot October II by her son-in-
law, Leonard Foster, accidentally, as
claimed by him, but for which he was
indicted for murder i'm the first de-
gree, was tried at the November
court, the jury disagreed and the de-
fendant was released on $4,000 bonds
pending a new trial.
1t is understood that 1t is the pur-
pose of the autopsy to establish the
exact location and direction of the
wounds in the body of the deceased
which, 1t seems, the evidence before
the coroner's jury and the trial jury
did not clearly define.

On the Verge OF Revolution.


st. Petersburg, Jan. 21.-The labor
disaffection continues to spread in all
directions. 1t is estimated that fully
$50. 900 workmen have already quit
il the various towns
Delegates from the workingmen of
Moscow and Libau arrived at st. Pet
err burg this morning to secure the
cooperation of Father Copon in call
ing out the employees of those towns
1t is believed that Sundays proposed
demonstration will prove an end to
the Industrial crisis, or the beginning
of "a revolution which will shake
Russia to its foundations.
The government is taking every
precaution to curb any disturbance.
Military forces will be posted al STRAIT
egic points, but concealed as much as
possible in order not to excite the
strikers by too open a display of
force The czar is now in consulta-
ton with his chief advisors as to the
advisa ability of showing himself in
front of the palace during the dem
onstration. 1t is understood the czar
is inclined to appear. but decision
is not yet reached.
Strikers Assembling.
The strikers assembled on the
streets this morning early, but con-
tinue to show a complete lack OF
turbulence. They are marching about
quietly, delegations visiting the vari-
GUS factories persuading the employees
to quit. Secret police are following
the strikers in order to keep the au-
thorities informed. There have been
no clashes.
The opinion is rapidly growing that
the government will be compelled to
concede the demands of the strikers.
Body Guard of LabOrers.
The strikers have notified the gov
ernment that they have selected a
corps of 400 picked men, who are to
act as a body guard for the czar IN
the event of his agreeing to confer
with their leaders. The members OF
this body guard have sworn to. sac
rifice their lives for the czar In ful-
fnling this guarantee of his safety.
None of the printers who quit yes
terday have returned to their posts
consequently st. Petersburg is today
without newspaper.
Socialists Are Active.
Violent socialist proclamations are
being circulated today, calling for
general uprising. AS no plans are
nroposed the proclamations are hav-
inc ro effect on the strikers.
