copper, and lies adjacent to other fine
mining sections. II is truly a wonder
land and l anticipate hat the recent
gold and copper discoveries in that
country will be the u Of the over
flow OF p~rospectors. drifting into the
Shoshone region, and thus become in
formed of It's possibilities.
THE extension Of the Northwestern
railroad westward and north through
the Shoshono country to Yellowstone
park and the extension of the Burling'
ton Toluca branch southwark TO its
Cheyenne line at Worland means there
will be a great crossing point Of those
roads somewhere within the Shoshone
country, giving 1t the best railroad ia
%cilities in western Wyoming. This will
necessarily hurry the opening up of a
great country there along all lines of
Industrial activity, and Will ultimately
result in the Northwestern developing
into one of the great transcontlnental
lines passing directly through that re-
gion and which will be the main line
to Yellowstone park.
There is not the slightest cause Tor
Nebraska becoming alarmed over the
diversion Of the waters Of the North
Platte by the building of the great
Pathfinder dam fifty miles @ OF Cas-
per. on the contrary the North Platte
irrigation bitches through Nebraska
will be UNNECESSARILY benefited by the
Pathfinder dam. The North Platte
will cease to be a roaring torrent at its
food time, washing out the irrigation
canal heads and destroying bitches,
or a dry stream during the summer sea
son. The dam will conserve all these
waters and permit the North Platte to
become an orderly, welEregulated
stream of steady volume and floods
Will be a thing Of the past. The lrriga-
ton laws of Wyoming are so stringent
that the original possessors of water
rights will not be disturbed in their
holdings, and hence the irrigation ca
nails heading in Wyoming along the
North Platte and running into Nebras-
|ka will not be disturbed.
Il am more than pleased with the
growth of Omaha and the great future
that is surely hers. The city is the ma,
tural market depot for the northwest,
and as that country develops Omaha
can but grow. 1t is the natural gate,
way to the west and no city can ever
rob 1t Of its prominence in this respect,
Omaha will surely become n of the
greatest of Western cities, and it has
no more loyal friends than the people
of Wyoming"

Wise Sister Mary,

one summer day where lambs should
never go. Then Mary sat her down
and tears streamed slowly from her
eyes: she never found the lamb be.

Mary had a brother John, who kept a
village store; he sat down and smoked
his pipe and watched the open door.
And as the people passed along and
did not stop to buy. John still sat
down and smoked his pipe and blinked
his sleepy eye.
And so the brokers seized his stock,
but still he fingered near, and Mary
came to drop with him a sympathetic
tear.
How is it, sister. can you tell why
other shoppers here sell all their
goods so quickly and thrive from year
to year?"

A GREAT WYOMING BOOSTER,

One of the leading boosters for wy
oming is Congressman Frank w. Mon.
dell. He never loses an opportunity
to lift his voice for his state and has
such an intimate knowledge of all its
needs and resources that his talk
counts for something. In a recent in
terview with the reporter for the Oma-
ha Bee Mr.. Mondell, who was accom-,
panied by Mrs. Mondell, said:
I'VE have been putting in a few
weeks at Atlantic City to get away
from the heat and sultriness of Wash,
ington, and are anxious to get back &c
the cool mountain breezes of Wyoming
Yes, the congress was a very busy
one and much has been accomplished
in the way of legislation. l became
well acquainted with your representa-
tive, Mr.. Kennedy, and find him to be
a very accomplished gentleman
and jealous in the interests OF
Nebraska and Omaha. He was a mem,
Der of the irrigation committee and is
one Of its most valued members. The
Nebraska delegation in congress is an
exceptionally strong one, and indus,
trious as well.
I'VE are all interested in the Sho
shone opening just now and l am a lit
tie surprised there has not been
greater rush for the reservation lands
That country is susceptible of the
greatest development and is one of the
best irrigable sections in the west. I'm
der the present plans of the govern
ment about 100000 acres of the Sho
shone lands will be brought under ir
rigation. The Big Wind river traverses
the reservation to the owl creek noun,
tains, where it cuts through Owl creek
canon and then becomes the Big Horn
During the last year or two, as q
member of the irrigation committee OF
congress, l have travelled oyer 10000
miles of irrigahle country, ~investigat

Give Russia the Credit.

1t is a singular fact that Russia is
the country which first gave the great.
est encouragement to the doc.
tor. The Woman's Medical Institute
in ST Petersburg, on its foundation,
was hailed as the only place in the
world where a woman could take out
medical degrees. But. in 1886 Min.
lister Warrowsky closed it. Now it
has suddenly come to life again, the
car has given it an endowment, and
its students have all the privileges
hitherto accorded men. Why and
wherefore? Because the wal is taking
all the men doctors, and if their places
are not filled the unhappy empire is
at the mercy of any epidemic that
may come along.

WRONGS OF THE CHILDREN.
One Child In Five at Work in Early
Nearg

One Child In Five at Work in Early
Years.
Field and Stream" notes that n
child in five in this country spends
the years between the ages of ten to
fifteen at work in coal mines, fac
tories or similar places. Education is
at a standstIll; there is no recreation
in field or forest: nothing to develop
mind or character, everything, on the
contrary. to hinder or distort their
growth. At fifteen the unhappy little
creatures. dwarfed in every direction
pass into circulation. In a few years
our citizens roll will be one-afth made
up of such.
In his installation address Presi'
dent Roosevelt said many fine things
about our duty and our dawning des-
tiny to lead the world. Make any al
lowance you Judge fit for possible
over-statement in the figures We quote,
the picture will not be greatly re-
lieved. For there is the other and
worse side of 1t that child labor Is
one, and only one, product OF the
greed and indifference of those who
are knowingly operative in causing
this %stupendous piece of cruelty. They
are a worse blot on the roll than the
children. become adults. will be.
In what are we to lead the world?
Humanity of conduct? Uselfsh disre-
gard for gain? How long does a ma
tons public policy remain in advance
of its average private standard.
These children are slaves who de-
rive no shadow of benefit, nothing but
harm, from their slavery. Morally
and mentally dwarfed men and wom-
en-, they are p~rematurely fathers and
mothers whose children register and
reflect the moral and mental status Of
their parents.
We once held these truths to be
self-evidence: that all men are en-
dowed by their Crertor with certain
~inaIienable rights. that among these
are life, liberty and the pursuit of
happiness"
But perhaps the signers of the Dec
laration of independence were not
