WARRANTS FOR PREMIUMS
MAILED LAST EVENING.

Secretary c. f. Kuster of the AL
bany County and Inter-Mountain Fair
association last night mailed the last
of the warrants for premiums awarded
at the last county fair, having paid
every premium in full. Il noticed one
thing while visiting the fairs and
races in Montana recently" said Mr..
Kuster this morning, and that is that
our premiums for blooded horses and
cattle are larger than those of any fair
in that state. l examined the books
and found this to be correct. Where
they paid $40 for the best animal in a
certain class we paid 800, and so it
goes all through the list. Even the
premiums for agricultural displays are
higher as a rule. The fair here is the
best for the exhibitor with which l am
acquainted"

One Frank Novak of Bolivar, Mo,

of the republican state committee, ap-
piled for a compaign contribution, re-
piled that he would be glad to do SO II

But while it is the policy of the re-
publican party to look after the init
mate needs OF its constituents, it would
seem hat conducting a matrimonial
agency is scarcely a proper function
of a great party. All it car do is to
provide the necessary prosperity to en-
able men to provide for wives-it can
not do the wooing.
Can Afford 1t Now.
But still it may be that the republi-
can party is responsible for the famine
in wives of which Mr.. Novak COM
| plains. BY promoting prosperity it has
enabled many men to get married who
could not afford it during Cleveland's
"hard-times' administration. 1t is in
such periods of industrial depression
that there are many widows and old
maids on the market.
But by the same token, under such
| conditions, while wives are cheap and
plentiful the men "a not afford them,

And Mr.. Novak should remember fur
Their that any lady with $1,000 in cash
does not require any assistance in get
ting married; she does not need to go
out OF her own township. Mr.. Novak
is evidently a poor student of the econ.
omies and of sociology. He doesn't be-
long in the republican party, anyway.
He should be a socialist, which party
promises to solve not only political
but domestic problems as well.

In spite of a severe storm, which set

and continued until night, when sever

ing larger than Chairman Gramm or
any other member of the committee
had looked for. The enthusiasm of

in Drawing the elements to reach the

dresses delivered b. the various state

other parties were present and some
of them seemed to enjoy the splendid
addresses, although there were some
who felt uneasy every time a speaker
referred to the unparalleled prosperity
of the people of the state. They are

They would rather be miserable, and
their misery is added to by their lone,

SINGING OF TWO POPULAR
NUMBERS IN HIS DIOCESE.

Hymns-Cardinal Author of One.

Newark, N. j., Oct. 20.-Bishop
O'Connor of this diocese has forbidden
the singing in the Catholic churches
of Nearer, My God, to Thee" and
Lead Kindly Light" on the ground
that they have nothing to do with
the liturgy of the church and are mere
ly sentimental hymns, anyway.
Written by Cardinal.
These songs have been frequently
sung in the churches of the Catholic
faith, however. Lead Kindly Light
was written by Cardinal Newman just
before he became a Catholic, and was

OPENS IN
SOUTHERN WYOMING

Soule's organization played and sang
to the delight of everybody, the gen.
tlemen on the platform applauding each
number markedly. Mr.. Cook and Judge
Scott were particularly well pleased,
although the others did not shed tears
when the girls were playing and sing
ing
Cook the First Speaker.
Mr.. Crumrine made a brief address
in introducing Mr.. Cook, who merely
introduced himself as the republican
candidate for superintendent of public
instruction. He said he had always
been interested in educational matters,
having always been a republican, and
he would entrust his case to the intelli-
gence of the voters of the state.
Judge Scott a Booster.
The next speaker was Judge Scott,
candidate for election as justice of the
supreme court, having been appointed
to a position on that bench to fiji a
vacancy. Judge Scott spoke of the ag.
ricultural development of the state,
and predicted great things in the fut,
ure, the trend at present being in that
direction. He said he had been highly
honored by Governor Brooks in his
appointment to the supreme bench,
and he had been placed in nomination
to succeed himself by a republican del.
egate from Albany county. OF this
fact he was immensely proud. Every
decision he had made was in the line
of his convictions of right in the prem.
ises, and he would continue, should he
be elected, to perform the duty with
the same regard for right.
Governor a Great Favorite.
Governor Brooks was quite warmly
received when he appeared upon the
platform. The governor is a favorite
with the people of this county, n he
added to the high esteem in which he
was held in his address last night. The
| speaker referred to the fact that in the
returns of property for assessment this
year Albany county had returned three
times as muc as any other county in
the state in the matter of musical in
struments owned. Looking at the
bevy of young girls before him in the
orchestra, he said he no longer marvel
ed at this-he could see why the peo'
pie of this county are unsteady inclin,
ed.
Coming Of the Farmer.
Governor Brooks referred to the de
velopment of the agricultural interests
of the county, and said there was but
the beginning of a mighty band of farm
ers to dot the Laramie plain with theil
homes. He said his efforts had been
to bring about the advancement of this
industry in the state, believing 1t tc
