POWER OF A SMILE"

Occasionally a Wyoming editor gives
his readers a gem worthy of a place
in the best scrap books. Under the
foregoing caption Editor Mokler of the
Casper Tribune Gescants upon the dc
STABILITY of being at all times pleas
ant. 1t costs nothing to spread happ!
ness and how much more are those
people who carry with them a smile
instead of a frown. Mr.. Mokler says,
Among Casper's valuable assets is
the growing propaganda Of the philos
ophy of the smiling face. That ita
possession is a philosophical deduc'
ton of sane business sense is true
for often a smiling face may mask u
troubled heart, but the imprint OF 9
smile on the nature Of other men al
ways brings a smiling response, and
to cultivate the latter is to succeed IN
private and public life. What a power
for squirting subordinates to duty q
smile on the face of an official chief
has on Monday morning, when all face
the trying duties of a new week! And
what a damper on heart and brain OF
all in their path are a sour disposition
and a scowl!
The highest prizes in the history OF
the a c were won by the power Of a
timely smile, and the tragedy of life
has ever been shot through and through
with it's high lights, leavening the bur
Gens of men and making suffering bear
able, The darkest outlook and most
forbidding aspect of affairs may be
illuminated by the penetrating power
of a smile and unexpected possibilities
developed in unexpected places. The
ethical demands of a business life in.
clude the genial smile, and no more
encouraging sign Of progressive citi-
zenship IS in evidence in Casper than
the smile which graces the business
mans face, not only in business hours
but in his private affairs and social
intercourse.
The times call for men who can di
rect great undertakings; men who car
supply initiative and suggestion; men
who can look a difficulty in the face
and then overcome it; powerful men.
men of action and determination:
truthful, modest and ~unassuming men;
but more than all and as the peer of all
we need the smiling man to round OH
the constructive forces OF the city.
Some mel can smile and murder while
they smile, but the man in demand is
he who can smile because of the al,
truistic principle that rules him; the
fact that the feelings Of others have
weight with him. Such a man and
such a smile are as the running waters
that give life to desert spots and make
almost divine the man and the power
he bears"

YOUNG MAN CONFESSES
TO THEFT OF WI

Upon suspicion of being implicated
in the theft, of a valuable watch from
Mrs. Bennett at her ranch on Bear
river, Thomas George, nineteen years
old, was arrested by Sheriff Jones on
Wednesday and placed In Jail, where
the sweating process caused the
young fellow to admit Of his guilt, al
though for some time he pleaded In
nocence, says the Evanston Press. He
informed the sheriff that the watch
was cached in a squirrel hole neal the
Almy junction, and upon accompanying
the officer to the point outlined, the
stolen article was recovered. The
young man pleaded guilty to the charge
of grand larceny in Justice Sims court
on Thursday and is held in the county
Jail to await action of the district
court.

A WORD ABOUT SIDEWALKS.

If Mayor S~palding n the present
dred years old they will do no act
that will cause ~appreciative constitu
ents to honor and respect them more
than the Improvement of the city's
walks. There is nothing that gives a
city more tone or pleases a stranger
TO get about without hurting sore corns
or stumbling yer uneven and damag-
ed walks. Like other improvements,
too, the building of sidewalks Is con-
tagious. Citizens vie with each In tho
construction of good walks and there is
a general spirit of progress engendered.
The people OF Laramie have met
the order of the council with exception
al promptness. Splendid sidewalks are
going down everywhere within the
prescribed limits and there seems to
be little If any disposition to evade OF
oppose the order of the city admins
tration. II any such opposition or evas-
ion should show itself, the mayor and
council have but one honorable course
to pursue. 1t must be met with firm
ness, No property-owner IA be per
order. If the work is moi performed
by the owners, then the city must take
hold and do the work, charging the
expense to the abutting property,
Those who have come squarely to the
front have the right to demand that
all others shall conform to the ordi-
nance. AS a matter of fact, the city
administration has no authority to per-
NIT evasion, If it would, and The Re
publican believes there is no member
thereof who would for a moment lis
ten to any favoritism being shown.
In these prosperous times all prop
erty-owners can afford to comply with
the order Of the city government AMI
everyone should be patriotic enough
to comply without making it necessary
for the officers of the law to even
make h second suggestion to them.
BY being resolute Mayor Spaldins
and the city council will put the people
of Laramie under a still further debt
OF gratitude.
Were it not for the fact that Lara
ME is bigger than Douglas it would
combat the statement that Douglas Is
the best town OF earth, OF its size"
When the sidewalks now under con-
tract are all completed Laramie will
present a much neater appearance. 1t
has always been a mighty pretty town,
but good walks are helping to improve

U. S. to Build Russia's Navy.

Within the mex four years Russia
will have a large naval squadron in the
Far East, and for this purpose has
appropriated 40 millions of dollars.
The Russian officials have recommend
ed that the squadron be built in the
United States, declaring that we can
turn out the ships in much quicker
time than any other country. The
quickest and safest way to correct a
bad stomach, to strengthen a weak
system and to ecove robust health

years it has been proving it's superior
merit in cases of dyspepsia, Indigestion
