marks Bill Coughlin, OF the Detroits.
There Is. of course, the usual exeep-
tion-the brilliant star who makes good

The colt comes into the league He
looks fast IN practice, he bats well, and
has grand throwing arm. In fact, he
often shows up the regulars In all the
practice. He can bat, field. and run
bases better, perhaps.
But when the season opens and the
race starts to tighten, IT'S different. lie
isn't the star he was picked to be- He

there Is excellent reason 20 believe thar
Hughes has no overwhelming sympathy

A GREAT OPPORTUNITY.

Almost every day the remark IS
Il wish we had the natural
that surround Laramie" the inference
being that If the men of other town.
had our advantages they would do
much with them.
Is II true that the citizens of Laramie
are not rising to every occasion? Is IL
possible that others might develop our
resources more rapidly than We are
doing?
Laramie has all the ingredients for
making the finest kind of glass, but
through an unfortunate combination
of circumstances the business was
killed in this city. The same was true
of the soda business. although Green
River Is pushing it ahead with com
m~endable energy. The plaster business
has proved a great success, although
at the outset 1t met with many dis
couragements. The same thing has
proved true of the rolling mill. 1t Will
be recalled by all the old residents
that the Union Pacific, under the man.
agement of Mr.. George r. Mock, made
a compete failure OF the rolling mill
and closed it down. When Mr.. Scrym,
ser asked for a lease 1t was given him
with a great deal OF reluctance and
upon terms which at the time We're
considered rather o%nerous. He a
aged the plant with great success and
his successor. Mr.. Gramm, did like,
wise. The rolling mill Is now one OF
our established industries and may be
considered away beyond the expert
mental stage. 1t will doubtless develop
into a big steel plant. Other smalle,
industries have been established ana
operated successfully, being mostly
confined to The business of this city.
There is one of these industries, re-
Gently established, which The Repub.
lican believes may be developed to al,
most an unlimited degree. Reference
is had to the brick plant. Wyoming
is pushing forward with rapid strides.
Millions of brick are being imported
firm Colorado and Nebraska that ought
to be made in Wyoming. During the
next two years Fort Russell alone will
use several million brick. Laramie is
nearer to Fort Russell than any of the
towns from which brick has been pur.
chased and there would appear to be
no reason why the Laramie brick can
not be delivered at Fort Russell at as
low a figure as the Colorado or Nebras,
ka product. To make big money, n
plant must do a big business.
The Republican would like to see
the Laramie brick plant qu%adrupled in
size. If necessary to supply the brick
needed by Wyoming builders. This
shale is here and the demand is here.
All that seems to be necessary is to
get right into the business. The com,
pany announces that il will double its
capacity during the coming winter.
This will be "A long stride in the right
direction.

THE COUNTY CHAIRMAN

10
A good show, well put on and ably
handled, took a large crowd to the
Opera House last night, when "The
County Chairman was presented by
the Marks s.. Nathan company OF capa'
BILE players. The story is one Of coun'
ty politics in the middle west, presum-
ably in Indiana. and shows the ups and
downs of party strife, where the coun'
ty Is almost equally divided between
two parties. There is a love story
through the play, in fact, several love
stories, and as usual, virtue is reward
ed and vice finds a fitting punishment
There was not a pistol shot in the
whole performance, the nearest to a
disturbance being when the county
chairman casts a chair across the room
in the very frenzy Of his hatred for
the crooked work Of the villain. There
is a large and strong cast, and the
portrayal of some Of the ms and outs
of affairs in the political camps is
quite true to nature. The company
went from here to Cheyenne and the
members of the state federation of wo,
mems clubs, in session there. will at

THE BRILLIANT HEINZE.

The financial record of Augustus
Heinze of Montana and New York is
doubtless the most spectacular of any
American. He is now in his early
thirties and yet he has run the gamut
Of the entire financial race. Only 2
few years ago he came west from Co,
lumbia college and engaged in copper
mining in Montana. He had the men,
tai grasp to handle the largest kinds
of deals and was soon a heavy opera
Tor. From mines it was but a step to
railroads and from railroads he easily
jumped to Wall street and big bank
interests. The collapse that has just
come to his firm will doubtless cost
him millions, but he will recover. He
has within his brain that which viii
give him wealth and power although
he might be a pauper today. He has
learned to work, work, work. And he
thinks in millions, while the ordinary
mortal is worrying about cents.

why Cold. Are Dangerous.

Because you have contracted ordin
airy colds and recovered from them
without treatment Of any kind. do moi
for a moment imagine that colds are
not dangerous. Everyone knows that
pneumonia and chronic catarrh have
their origin in q common cold. Con
sumption is not caused by a cold but
the cold prepares the system for the
reception and development Of the
germs that would not otherwise have
found Judgment It Is the same with
all infectious diseases. Diptheria,
scarlet fever, measles and whooping
cough are much more likely to be con-
|tracted when the child has q cold. You
will see from this that more real dan
ger turks in . cold than in any other
of the common ailments. The easiest
and quickest way to cure a cold Is to
take Chamberlain's Cough Remedy.
The many remarkable cures effected
by this preparation have made it a
staple article Of trade over y large part
of the world. For sale by all druggists.
