Camp Instruction, Albany county,
Wyo., Sept. 14.-There is every reason
to believe a permanent maneuver camp
will be established at this point. 1t is
the c%oncensus of opinion of General
Williams and the field officers that it
furnishes the best grounds for opera
tons yet tried by the United States
army. During the months of July and
August the weather conditions are
ideal. 1t is neither too hot nor too
cold, there is plenty of wood for camp
fires and for cooking, feed for horses
is plentiful and of excellent quality,
water is distributed by means of
mountain springs over the entire area
and transportation facilities are good
and will be made better.
Thirty Days Long Enough.
This is the positive view of the mat
ter taken by General Williams, and he
will so report to the war department.
He is of the opinion that thirty days

conduct the maneuyers and that ev-
erything should be in readiness for
field operations prior to the month of
August, in order that that ideal month
may be given over entirely to instruc,
ton. This year, the general says
seventeen problems have been worked
out, but he is of the opinion that q
hundred others would have been hand
led upon these ideal grounds. There

The Plato m Today.

The convention reconYened at 10
o'clock this morning and spent two
hours on the platform, the resolutions
being completed about noon. The plat
form is made up largely of demands
and denunciations of the acts of thS
republican party in the state. 1t is
practically a free trade platform
through its attack upon the "robber
tariff" 1t denounces the present gov
eminent of the state prison at Rawlins
and wants to know why the prisoners
are maintained at a cost of 60 cents a
day. The resolutions demand a re-
stricted forest reserve.
Ticket Completed.
Just before the noon adjournment
the convention nominated S. A. D.
Keister of Fremont county for gov
ernor. Keister declined to accept the
nomination until he was assured of
the plans of the party concerning the
conduct of the campaign. The con
%vention then took a recess until 8
O'Clock, when Keister had been salts,
fed and he was nominated by acclama,
ton, The ticket was completed as
follows:

My Shepherd.

HE leadeth me-"
And so / need not seek my own wild
way
Across the desert wide;
He knoweth where the soft, green
pastures lie,
Where the still waters glide..
And how to reach the coolntss of there
rest,
Beneath the calm hillside.
'.Tfe leadeth mel
And though it be by rugged, weary
why's;
Where thorns spring sharp and
sore,
No pathway can seem strange or desc
late
When Jesus ''goes before.n
His gentle shepherding my solace is,
And giadness yet In store.
HE leadeth me-"
I shall not take one needless step
through all,
In wind, or heat, or cold:
And all day long he sees the peaceful
end,
Though trials manifold.
Up the fair hillside, like some sweet
Waiteth the quiet fold.

The Wrong Way to Work.

Suppose SOME cold morning you
should go into neighbor's house and
find him busy at work ON his windows,
scratching away, and should ask him
what he was doing, and he should re-
ply: ".Nhy, / am trying ito remove
the frost; but as fast as get it off one
square, It comes on anotliern
Would you not say: "Why, man, let
your window alone, aud kindle a fire,
and the frost will come off?,,'
And have you not Seen people try to
break off bad habits one after another
without avail? Well they are like the
man who tried to scratch the frost
from his windows.
Let the fire Of love ID God, kindled
at the altar of prayer, burn In your
heart, and the bad habits will soon
melt away.

FREE alcohol will be good
thing for the country. Instead Of
being used to debauch men. it will
make fot larger comfort and pros
perity in every rural community,
Alcohol can be made at a cost Of
less than ten cents gallon, and is
a perfect substitute for. kerosene
aud gasoline as fuel. The process
of distilling is simple, and the ap-
paratus is not expensive. Spoiled
grain. small potatoes, beets and
cornstalks may be converted into
nlcohol, and every farmer can have
power machinery run by alcohol of
his own distillation. ALI that is
necessary is that it shall be de
natured," that is. made unfit for
use as beverage. These facts ex-
plain the widespread interest in the
proposal to remove the tax of S2.Io
a gallon on alcohol that has been
treated. so that it cannot be used as
a drink. Congress could scarcely
have passed more useful measure
than hjs.-Epworth Herald.

Sweetness of temper Is a precious
heritage. 1t gives beauty to every
thing. It keeps it's windows open
towards the spice country aud fills the

nate possessor of sunny soul is Gods
evangel In dark world. He is liv-
ing gospel which no one will eyer re-
pudiate, and the blessedness of which
all men will appreciate. The body will

In irrigsting a spud field small
streasn should be turned into each
furrow and let run until the soil II

the furrnws 10 run for short time will
not accomplish this purpose satIsfsct-
oriIy, especially II the furrows have
considerable slope. As soon as thesoil
Is Sufficiently dry the fnrrows should
be cultivated down. The number Of
times that the crop will need irrigation
afterwards will depend entirely upon
the soil and the weather. At no time
should the soil be permitted to become
dry or baked. This will check the
growth Of the plants and materially
reduce the crop. BY irrigation and
cultivation they should bc kept grow.

Usually three or four irrigations are

Floating visions Of luscious pies,
Flsky crust Of the lightest brownl
Smaeking his lips and looking down

Pumpkins were stirring, left and right
Legs and arms had begun to sproutI

How they grin at him-how they Starsl
Straight on end stands Thomas hair.
