AN CASE.

The ase of Ed. Byers, just decided
by the supreme court, is a very inter
esting one. Byers, 1t will be recalled,
vas found insane by a jury in this
county in the year 1893 and commit
ted to the asylum at Evanston. Subse.
quently his mind seemed to improve and
he was released and permitted to go to
his mother, then living in Michigan.
Later, in 1901, he was taken into Gus.
tody in Michigan and returned to the
asylum at Evanston, it being held by
the Michigan authorities that he was
properly a charge upon this state,
While E. T. Payton was in the asylum
at Evanston he became convinced that
Byers was not insane and recently de
cided to attempt his release upon q
writ of habeas corpus.
Attorney General Mullen conducted
the case for the state. and the case for
Ryers was conducted by Attorney
Spence OF Evanston. While the court
took considerable evidence in the case
sufficient to show, perhaps, that Byers
is not really insane, 1t was not upon the
question of sanity that the defendant
was released, but Upon the ground thai
he was not committed to the asylum the
second time by due process of law. II
Is held by the court that the asylum
authorities have the power to dis
charge a person cured of insanity and
Byers was discharged because of his
improved condition, hence he was nc
longer a charge Of the institution mol
in any way liable to arrest under the
former finding of the jury. In effect
therefore, the court decided that a sec
ond commitment of a person regularly
discharged from the insane asylum car
only be made through a regular trial
by jury, as in the first instance.
1t is the purpose of Mr.. Payton to
take Byers with him to his ranch near
Thermopolis, where he will be employ
ed in ranch work. He is capable of do
ing all kinds of ranch work and will
doubtless be valuable there,

the appearance and disposition of many
women. Tho freshness, tho charm, the
brilliance vanish like the bloom from .

Of the charming maiden. There are two
reasons for this change, ignorance and
neglect Few young women appreciate
the shock to the system through the
change which comes with marriage and
motherhood. Many neglect to deal with
the unpleasant pelvic drains and weak
nesses which too often come with mar
riase and motherhood, not understanding
that this secret drain ID robbing tho cheek

As 1t appears to The Republican, sec.
ton " Of the sheepmen's resolu.
tons is a trife hysterical. If the allie
cations therein limited at are true,
then it would be wise to make the pc.
tition Of the REALTORS more definite and
certain. Time and again men living
in the vicinity Of the forest reserves
have commended the policy OF The gov,
eminent. True, these men have in.
variably beer cattlemen and may have
a different sort Of an az to grind than
the sheepmen. but the truth should be
the same to n class of stockmen as to
another, and II Mr.. Pinchot is actu-
ally denuding the forest reserves in the
interests of monopolies 1t ought to be
very easily proved. Let's have some
evidence. II the methods employed
are detrimental to forestry and the pre-.
s%ervation of the forests of America,
then science is set At naught and the
teachings Of Ell our colleges have been
in vain. A fair, straightforward dis
cussion Of the forestry question would
be hailed with delight. Hysterical con.
domination will not amount to much.

E. ]. Wells left Sunday for Washing
ton to take up his duties as secretary
to Senator C. d. Clark, says the Lander
State Journal. Wells Is one OF those
cheerful optimists upon whom 1t never
rains rain, but always daffodils; who
has a smile and a word OF cheer no
matter how the skies may look, or
what the prospects may be. Other fel.
lows may be overwhelmed with the
cares OF state or of business and too
tired to give much attention to their
common plug friends. but Ed Wells is
always out with the glad hand and
hearty welcome for everyone he knows
and his friends are legion.
To this the Roundup would add that
Ed mi his boss" are classed in the

She had the nerve actually to weep
to shed tears-over the sacrifice Of
her daughter! She didn't seem to ap-
oreciate what she was getting at all!
She said Grace was so young and she
hadn't wanted her to marry for years
vet, but that Derrick was so impetuous
and persistsnt-hsr very words! She
did admit that he was a nice young
man. but she did 1t in a grudging way.
She didn't talk about a thing but her
daughter. You'd have thought that was
all that mattered! She almost congrat.
alated me on getting such a daughter.

1t is asserted that under the present
forest reserve policy of the govern.
ment more timber has been .aken from
the reserves Of the state than during
all the time prior to the initiation OF
that policy. This assertion is too silly
to be deserving of a second thought,
The Republican ventures the statement
that any settler who has been at all
observing will say that single timber
fires prior to 1894 wiped out more tim,
Ter than the Carbon Timber company
has cut. If there is anything III the
science Of forestry, the work being
done by the Carbon Timber company
is beneficial and not detrimental to
the forest eserve. Does any person
recall a serious forest fire since the
government took hold of the Medicine
Bow and Sierra Madre reserves? AS a
matter Of fact, will not all who are in
clined to be candid admit that in the
matter Of prevention of forest fires
alone the bureau Of forestry mas earned
ten times what it has cost?

E~x-President Cleveland makes a

Cash and Credit

Cash and Credit
A Wyoming merchant announced a
few years ago through the public print
in his town, that after a certain date
he would give credit to no man. He
would pay cash for everything he
bought and would require cash for
everything he sold. Hts customers re-.
fused to take the announcement ser,
iously. They ordered the stun they
needed, and wanted the bills sent in as
usual, and when the merchant said
that nothing would go out of the store
without being paid for they became
wrathy n said they would buy their
stun elsewhere. The merchant lost a
great deal Of trade. but he refused to
he scared. He lowered the prices on
This stun, for he had no more bad bills.
and pretty o the old customers who
had gone away mad began to come
back, and We saw the merchant recent
ly and he informed us that he had a
larger business than ever before, and
nothing would induce him to return to
the old credit system. In the course of
time all merchants will adopt the cash
system, and 1t will be a good thing for
them and their customers when such a
time comes The cash dealer can at.
ford to sell stun at lower prices than
the one who credits every Tom, Dick
and Harry, for he has no losses from
bad bills, and he has no use for a col
%lector, and he has little use for a book
keeper, and he doesn't have to Dor
row money n pay interest on it to
tide him over the hard places. And II
will be a blessing to the poor people
when they get out OF the habit of hav-
ing things charged. They always buy
more than they need, and more than
they would buy if they pay cash.-Cas,
