DANGER IN DELAY.

Kidney Diseases Are Too Dangerous
for Laramie People to Neglect.
The great danger Of kidney troubles
is that they get a firm hold before the
sufferer recognizes them. Health fs

headache, nervousness, lameness,
soreness, lumbago, urinary troubles,
dropsy, diabetes and Bright's disease
follow in m~ercHess succession. Don't
neglect your kidneys. Cure the kid

Doan's Kidney Pills. which has cured
people right here in Laramie.
William Merryfield, $40 east Garfield
street, Laramie, wyo., says For a
year or longer, at intervals, I was trou-
bled with n heavy pain under the pei
vic bone. I always felt the annoyance
first in this particular region and then
In a short time there would be a pain
in my back and across the kidneys.
Doan's Kidney Pills came to my notice
and I got a box from the Laramie
Drug company. They did me so much
good that l continued the second box
and obtained great relief. I found that

FREE FROM PREJUDICE.

Folks who live by their W wits
and by other folks %gullibinty are too
liberal minded by far and too free from
prejudice. They have no narrow
minded views and NO scruples. Sim
ultaneously come complaints that
these predatory persons are imperson-
ating collectors for the Salvation ar
my on one hand and for the Bryan
campaign fund on the other. In most
pursuits Of life such q spirit Of toler.
ance and liberality might be regarded
as indicative of the highest virtues,
but in its present manifestation 1t Is
alarming.
The fraud upon the salvation army
Injuries a helpful organization engaged
In a worthy work, and the looting of
the dollar democrats not only shocks
the better nature OF men but will de-
stroy the confidence OF the plain peo-
pie. Mr.. Bryan has made eloquent
pleas I the supporters OF pure Bryan
democracy. and all over the land they
are ~loosening the purse strings and
drawing forth the hard earned dollar.
1t Is a grievous thing that any Of the
hard come by cash should md Its way
into the possession Of the predatory
classes against which Mr.. Bryan warns
q needless generation. For the bet
ter protection OF society a confidence
man ought to have a few prejudices.

and the reclamation OF large agricul'
tural areas is 10 save something Of the
large annual outlay for hay. The re-
claimed land this year amounts to ap.
proximately 1900 acres and the re-
turn has been even beyond the high
est hopes Of the stockholders.
To reclaim this land the company
has taken the food waters OF Pole
creek and ~impounded them In a reser.
voir of sufficient capacity to cover
several times the acreage already re
claimed. The Warren company not
only will reclaim q large acreage, but
will urge all others In that vicinity
to do likewise. 1t offers a first-class
price for products Of the farms to all
those who car to engage in the bust
ness.
AS an incident to the business OF
the company, Mr.. w. w. Gleason. the
manager, and Mr.. Fred Warren, son Of
Senator Warren, have each taken up
and reclaimed a desert entry Of 800
acres. The showing they have made
Is truly marvellous and 10 a wonderful
example of what Wyoming soil will
do when water Is applied. They fig
ure that their land and water will cost
them not far from $40 per acre, which
is remarkably low. considering Its 10
cation. 1t is land that will raise all
kinds of small grain and sugar beets
and will doubtless be worth 800 pei
acre In less than q dozen years.
1t Is of more than passing interest
to the people OF Wyoming that this
company has turned to agriculture In
a large way, as 1t means that tremend
Gus energy will be brought to bear
and that agriculture In that section
of Wyoming will receive careful and
thorough exploitation. Doubtless there
are many places along Grow creek
Pole creek, Horse creek, Bear creek
and the Chugwater where flood water
can be impounded with just al favor
able results as the Warrens have oh
tanned. All that is necessary is fol-
brains, energy and money to be ap
Piled. Millions upon millions OF feet
of water go to waste every year that
would bring productivity to the sol
and money to men with sufficient cour
age to take hold Of the projects.

c%HDYENNEs WATER.

Cheyenne is preparing to make an
additional investment Of $500, 900 In
water works. Bonds have recently
been voted for $3.50, 900 and it is the
purpose TO vote 100000 more, max
ing the total Investment OF the city
in water works past and future ap-
proximately 81, 200, 900. II is figured
by those who have gone into the prop
osition with care that the additional
burden can be carried by the water tax
without increasing the general tax up
on the people and without adding to
the water tax. The new system will
be q gravity system and do away with
all engines and pumping Of every de-
scription. The large investment II
made necessary because Of the fact
that water must be furnished for Fort
Russell as well as Cheyenne, but the
government will bear a portion Of the
burden, which will doubtless total q
million and a half. At a meeting OF
the leading property owners Saturday
night there was not a voice against
the proposition.
Water will be brought through large
aQueducts from a system OF reservoirs
along Crow creek, one Of which has
already been built and another plan
ned.
Big property owners at the capital
feel that this investment will give
them = water system superior to any
city In the west and that II will add
materially to the value Of their prop
erty. They are nothing II not pro-
gressiye.

Interested are the ranchmen and min.
ers in having the road built they have
offered to contribute sums ranging
from $500 to $1,000 each for the pur'
pose. Mr.. Kelly states that he will

he would soon save that AMOUNT in

THE COUNTRY TRADE

Does the Laramie merchant give the
attention he should to the country
trade?
Not long ago one of the ~proprietors
of this paper asked a ranchman in the
Centennial valley why he purchased a
certain article from a Chicago house,
remarking that he could probably have
secured the same thing in Laramie for
as little money and had the advantage
of seeing the goods before buying.
The truth about the matter is,''
said the ranchman. "T did not make
inquiry in town as to whether l could
get the article or not. l saw 1t adver-
tised in an attractive manner. 1t caught
my fancy and 1 sent for it. 1t was de-
liverei neal my home with as little
trouble as one could Esk. When we
buy In town we must go there to see
what we are buying and lave no list
and prices that we can go over in our
homes after the days work Is over
Say what you please, the price list Is
quite a convenience to US people in
the country and helps TO sell the
goods advertised. We nearly all take
the local papers and read everything
In them, but rarely ever find lists and
prices except from a very few mer-
chants, and from the country business
they are doing 1t is certain that they
are benefited by telling us what they
ave and what they will take for It."
There is no question as to the sound
ness of the reasoning on the part of
this Centennial ranchman. Eastern
houses make a definite appropriation
every year for advertising. They count
on this agency Just as much as they
do their travelling statesmen. They
send thousands of lists to people all
over the nation. They reach the peo-
pie through local papers. IN the big
cities such houses as Wanamaker and
Marshall Field use the daily papers
for price lists and the response Is tre-
mendous. The Republican earnestly
believes that the merchants Of Lara
mie could get a much greater proper
ton of the country trade II they ad-
vertised freely in those papers that
reach the ranchmen of Albany county.
The Weekly and Semi-Weekly Repub-
lican are such papers. They go into
almost every ranch home regardless
OF political lines. They are read from
beginning t end. An advertisement
inserted In either OF these papers
reaches the country trade as certainly
as the Daily Republican reaches the
people Of Laramie and we are certain
that the return to the merchant more
than warrants the outlay,
The merchant who given close, per.
%sistent, careful attention to his adver-
Using is the merchant who has the
greatest easur Of success.

GAVE PARTY FoR

DRESSING OF DOLLS.
Miss Sheldon gave a delightful party
and luncheon on last Friday afternoon
in honor OF her sister, Mrs. Harry
Hoffluston Of Laramie, says the Lander
State journal. Crepe paper and small
dolls were passed by the hostess and
the guests we're asked to dress the
dolls with clothing made from the
crepe paper. The jolly guests set to
work with the pleasant task and the
rooms soon resembled a dressmakfng
parior. Many beautiful dressed dolls
and much merrfment ri the result Of
the afternoons work. A prize was
given for the best dressed doll and
Mrs. ]. Brown was the lucky winner OF
the pretty pin cushion and Mrs. Stone
reviewed the consolation prize. At hve
o'clock a delicious four course lun-
cheon was served by the hostess. a.

NEW YORK. Sept. THE prepara-
tions Dy prominent American turfmen
for racing abroad next season ard the
reports concerning their plans caused
much comment among racing men yes
terday. but Occasioned neither surprise
nor alarm 10 the majority.
The worst that the experiment Of
racing in England by wealthy Ameri-
cans means to American racing. in the
opinion of horsemen, is that fer the
term the experiments are carried On the
men in question viii send the best
products Of their breeding farms TO
England. and the turf in America will
suffer the loss OF some Of its best ma
terial and make the most Of what they
! leave for American racing
That any Of the American turfmen
! can make the experiment profitable, or
! even seif-suppOrlng, Is regarded as
very improbable by American horse
/ men who are familiar with turf con-
ditions n England and in Continental
/ Europe. The most successful AmertcaR
/ turfmen who ever raced IN England for
! the sport itself. James r. Keene ana
the late Pierre LOrillard, made turf
history, but il was at an enormous cost
OF money.

done the first proof that his horses are

who raced IN England have won moneS
through the betting rings but the con-
ditiOns under which they left England
were such that England does not ap-
pear TO offer an inviting field for men
who simply wish 70 gamble on the
Turf
The explanation OF the proposed ship
msnt Of American bred horses TO Eng
land that is generally accepted by horse
men is that the owners OF the great
