third shot was fred which took effect

wound. He continued his fight, how
ever, until overtaken by the Sheriff,

Henry Shamblin Fined $4,000.

Henry Shamblin, yound white man
who recently moved here from Russell
county, was fined 5000 by Justice H.
G.. Peery in a preliminary hearing
here Tuesday afternoon. Shamblin
was fined $4,000 for carrying conceal
Ell weapons, and $1,000 for assault
and battery. The warrant was sworn
out by Mrs. Hall, half aunt of Sham
bin, charging him with an attempt to
shoot and cut her. Mrs. Halls sworn
testimony was that Shamblin had
drawn a pistol on her, and threatened
her life in other ways. The cause of
the trouble between Shamblin and his
aunt was debt which he owed her
and over which they had had some
words, among them being the charge
by Mrs. Hall that any honest man
dosn't mind being asked about his
debts. Justice Peery delivered him.

A CAUSELESS CALAMITY HOWL

In view of the calamity howl that ap-
peared in the Boomerang the other day,
The Republican desires to offer n lit
tie evidence from democratic sources.
Senator Patterson, in a recent Wash
IL gton interview, alleged that the main
reason for democratic defeat in the
state of Colorado was the great wave
of prosperity that was upon the nation
and particularly the west.
During the past six weeks contract
ors in this city and throughout the
state have been ~endeavoring to get
men 1t big wages to perform labor that
was pressing. Among the contractors
mentioned was the w. II. Holiday
company of this city, which company
has been offering very high wages for
common labor without getting all the
supply needed.
In the Cheyenne Leader of the 18th
inst. the following paragraph is found:
wyoming is moving forward with
leaps and bounds. Every line OF busi'
ness is thriving. The railroads are Of
fered more cattle and sheep for ship
ment from the state than they car
haul. The coal mines, although work
ing large forces of men, are away be
hind in their orders. Stockmen are
amassing fortunes, and there Is eVi
dence of prosperity everywhere"
The foregoing showing is deemed
sufficient to satisfy those who are not
blind that there is no such thing as
hard times in the Rocky
region. Again, when statistics are
quoted, they should be brought down
to date. Census records six years old
are a little behind the present push
ing, progressive generation. Civ us
something a little fresher.

MORE THAN A yINDICArloN.

IT is n pleasure to any man to know
that he has the good will and the hearty
support of his fellow citizens, but more
particularly is this true of a man In
public life who must necessarily al
times incur the enmity of at least a
number of citizens. A man in busi-
ness or in politics who amounts to any
thing cannot help taking a stand upon
matters coming up for consideration,
and a stand means opposition to some
In small cities and towns leaders oil
public thought, leaders in politics and
men at the head of commercial AFFAIRS
incur envy and jealousy more readily
than they do in larger cities, because
of the smaller number of people and
the consequent personal contatc'
Their very success brings them oppo-
sition and trouble.
Laramie is no exception to the rule
During the past six months or more
the head of the commercial club was
the target for all kinds of abuse and
utilization. Yet, when the time comes
for reorganization OF that body, the
business men, as one man, turn to the
Hon. Otto Gramm and demand his re-
election to the presidency. 1t was a
repetition of the action of the people
in demanding his retention upon the
school board. 1t was a contamination
devoutly to be wished-an endorse
ment most fitting and proper. AS
president of the commercial club, Mr.
Gramm has given unsparingly of his
time and energy. Under any circum-
stances he is a busy man, and yet he
has been compelled through the call
of the people to devote a very large
share of his time to public duties, Ia
Dor that has brought him no other re-
ward than the commendation of those
who approved his actions and the con-
domination of those who opposed.
1t is a pleasure to note that in the
commercial club there was no dissent,
no contention, nothing but unanimity,
This action places the club In an atu-
tude upon which it and the city is to
be congratulated. Nothing can now
prevent it from going forward as a
unit for the accomplishment of n
object it may see fit to advocate.

STATE RES
Be Square About 1t

Now that the election is over and
political capital can ne longer be made
Of the states irrigation project on the
coded portion of the reservation, why
not, in the name of all that is fair and
decent, give State Engineer Johnston
a little rest, We note that about two
democratic papers arc still harping
on the fact that he is engineer for the
company that is building the canals on
the tract spoken of. True. he Is en-
gineer for the company, and in the dis
charge of his official duty he could not be
less. The surveys were made by John
ston and his deputies, the plans were
prepared in his Office, and If the work is
to be lone under these plans he must
be the supervising engineer. 1t was
expected that some INSCRIPTIONS parties
would distort the facts during the heat
OF a political campaign, but to continue
them afterward savors somewhat of
malice. 1t looks as If they were afraid
the system which Johnston devised
might dlsprove what they have said of
1t, and they will try to discredit him
before the people if they con. So far
as we have been able TO discoyer-and
we have followed the case pretty close
ly-there is absolutely nothing to sug-
gest that the state engineer had any
thing to do with the irrigation com
pany aforesaid other than what his of
fetal duty required of him. Why not
give Johnston's affidavit to that effect
the same publicity that was given to
the charge that he was an officer of the
company?
Gentlemen, now that the election. is
past It is time to deal fairly, at least
until the ~exigencies of another cam

MAN SOUGHT FOR is
FOUND IN PRISON

Captain Cough of the Salvation Army
AT Cheyenne recently received a letter
from a man in Peekskill, N. Y, asking
him to try to locate his brother, last
heard of in Wyoming. The letter de-
scribed the brother as follows: He is
inclined to be wild and you may find
him in the penitentiary." The prison
was consequently the place where Cap
tain Cough made his first inquiry and
discovered the man serving a fve-year
term from last August.

arrived in state, to find Mrs. Greg
DRY sitting down to a lonely repast,
Mr.. Gregory having stayed in town.
Well, you know how awfully proper
she is, and what a tease she is, and
[ knew that II she discovered my mis-
take she'd be awfully embarrassed,
and I'd hear the last of it from
him, SO l thought quickly, and said
I'd come to carry her off to the club
to dine with us. l hoped we'd get
there in time to head you of, but we
didn't, and poor old Ashton, who was
wandering about like a lost soul, said
you'd been gone some time. 1 tele.

you'd just left there, but as you didn't

Hang Mrs. Gregory! Here 1 was
trying to get a raise out of Ashton,
which he thinks the company can't
afford, and I was Just getting him to
see my point of view, when that boy
called me of. You notice that your
dinner party will cost US something,
because I'll not get the raise, now
ooh, but you will"
What do you know about it?'
well, it didn't take me long to dis
cover that Mr.. Ashton's hobby was
rose gardening, and l told him that
it was your hobby, too. l said it was
the sorrow, the only sorrow of our
lives that we couldn't afford to have
a hot house for roses, and he was SO
perfectly delighted to find that you
had this taste in common, that he
told me he thought the company
would have to put up for the hot
house, after January 1st."
