The little hero of the following inei- dent did mol belong to me. In taet. from his appearance l think he be longei to no one in particular | am equally sure that the fact of his loneii. ness had no terrors for him, He WAS a ragged little urchin selling papers on \ busy down town corner. \ stylishly yowned woman anid the hurrying throag dropped her pockethook, Quick as a Hash the boy seized il and hurried after her. Touching his cap, he hand ed her The heavy purse.
 She thanked him very grscsoasly and handed him nickel. In a tone equally gracious he responded, "Aw, "Aw, keep your nickel, l WAS roor once myself. .n-The August iAeinea,oF.

DoaI,ier in Glover.

Nowadays nothing that can be adul- terated, or fabricated with poor imita- tions of what 1t purports to be-that is mol done to enrich rogues. And they are not of the degraded class, either, that are engaged i'll such work for men in high positions and those Of honored populations have been punished as fel- ons for such nefarious deeds. Large as that class is proved to be. il is small compared to the total population. Most Of their deeds is a swindle Of money, but there are those who knowingly and wilfully sell adulterations that destroy health and life, and many of whom it is impossible to reach. We have laws to punish those who sell adullerated food to the injury of human beings, We have State organizations to test all articles used hy farmers, because not only the money expended but their crops and stock are seriously affected in addition .
 As an instance, the Connecticut Az fieultural station has issued bulletin entitled tt To, er Seed in the Connecti- cut Market, to show that much of the clover seed ill the State market k of poor quality.
 The Station secured in all 5l samples and test Of them showed that only one-siN of the whole number were ii | to use; only l0 were free from dodder, the most dangerous weed found in clo- yer; il is a parasite which sends up a yellow thread.like stem, which, if it finds no plant on which ii can feed. dies; but if 1t finds suitable plant it fiourishes, twisting about the plant, and feeding upon it's juices, weakening CT killing the valuable plant. It's con- neetion with the ground soon ceases, but when actively growing the stem can be cut into any number of pieces. each of which, if attached to clover, will continue 10 flourish. It produces abundant seed, which stocks the ground for the next clover crop.
 In conclusion the Station warns buy CTS to buy and pay for only such seed as the seller will guarantee, and not to buy seed until il has been tested by the station.

Dominates Coal MINING.

The interstate commerce commits
sion has forwarded to the senate re-
ports of investigations made by Its
agents regarding the determinations
of railroads in transporting coal ans
oil in the states of Colorado, Utah, Ne
braska and Oklahoma. Speaking of
and coal mined along the Union Pacific
railroad in Nebraska and Wyoming,
it is found that while the officials OF
that road are not directly interested
in the mines, that company does abb
solutely dominate the mining, trans.
lp~ortation and sale of coal along its
lines 1t Is also charged that the
company resorts to various methods
to prevent the opening of new mines
along it's route, and the conclusion IS
drawn that If the public coal lands
should be Withdrawn the effect wodld
be to intensity and perpetuate the
company's monopoly.

ACTION BY HUMANE SOCIETY.

The American Humane society Is OF
the opinion that the western ranges
should be taken in charge by the ma
tional government in the interests OF
humane treatment of cattle and sheep.
IL is the belief of the members of this
society that were the ranges leased,
they would 10 be overcrowded by the
~lessees and that cattle and sheep
would therefore not be subjected to
starvation from overcrowding. 1t Is
claimed that the government reports
show that over 2,500,0 900 deaths from
exposure of sheep and cattle occurred
during the year ending March 81, 1905
To prevent a recurrence of this the
association recommends the passage of
a fair aud equitable lease or grazing
law providing that the owners Of all
stock grazing under lease shall have
lands so ms to provide its stock with
proper summer and winter su~stenance.
"In the name OF civilization and hui
manlty," the petition reads VIZ ap
peal to you, Mr.. President. to find a
way as you have beer known to do on
previous occasions, to expedite the
slow process of public education on
this subject and to quicken the public
conscience"

BY far the best piece of news that

penings in this camp was that the

the Williams-Luman mine had cut into
a large vein of virgin copper last Sat.

tain Miner.
A. d. Mcqueen who has been watch
ing developments left Depass for
Butte as Don as he saw thai the vein
was at least eight feet thick. He was
very enthusiastic and said that 1t was
the best copper vein and mine in the
world and that he had seen them all.
Thos. G. Smith, president and gen
eral manager says that it Is extremely
high grade ore and that there is lots
of it. Local assays gave 80 to SO per
cent copper, So in gold and some sill
yer. There is just enough quartz in it
to make it break good. This strike
establishes the fact that Wyoming is
a mineral state and that Copper Noun.
tain is its best camp.

LET'S BUILD THEM RIGHT.

In the matter of sidewalk and street
improvement The Republican would
like to urge with all the -earnestness
that IL can the ACCESSIBILITY of the city
as a corporation doing its whole share.
If property n are compelled to
put down expensive walks in front of
their property n take n pride in
identifying their premises to that ex-
tent, certainly there IA be no good
argument against the city as a whole
building a substantial and slightly
crosswalk both on streets and alleys,
nus continuing the needed improve.
fneGt from one end of the street TO the
other.
1t will not do to say that the city
has no money for this purpose. The
people pay the money for the side
walks in front of their property and
they pay the taxes into the city trea-
sury. If they can AFFORD the one they
can afford the other. Again, there are
many people who pay taxes into the
city treasury who do not n real
estate at all, but they have daily use
for the sidewalks and crosswalks.
They should do their share through
the city treasury in the general i'm
provement of the town.

Spalding and The city council would
not be averse to such a proposition
were they properly backed up by public
sentiment. They have the best inter.

STATE PRESS
Has sryan's Endorsement

Most of the democratic papers OF
this state have taken a strong stand
against the republican state central
committees endorsement of Taft and
also aginst the proposition that the
state convention should instruct the
Wyoming delegates to vote for and
support him at the coming national
convention. This paper is not con-
cerned about their wishes and no ref
erence would be made to them, were
1t not for the fact hat a few republi-
can editors have fallen in With their
Ideas. If there is anything wrong
in a state committee endorsing a presi-
Dental candidate, then nearly every
state committee, both republican ami
democrat, has been guilty of an of
Tense. However, the democrats of
Michigan refused to endorse Bryan's
candidacy the other day and the
peerless leader gave out a heated in.
terview on the subject. He said that
the failure of the democratic state cen
trail committee TO indorse him was an
unpleasant surprise. He issued u
statement saying, in effect, that it was
well within the province of the com
mittee TO have endorsed his candidacy,

Keeping Faith With the cubans.

The world has seldom witnessed any
thing finer in history than the relations
of the United States with Cuba, and
some of our ablest statesmen urge us
to continue u faith with them by
Withdrawing from the island at the
appointed time and allowing them to
establish d government of their own.
Seldom, if ever, has the record of cures
made by the famous Hostetter's Sto-

WALKER FOR TAFT.

Secretary Walker of the National
Woolgrowers' association and one OF
the principal opponents of the so-called
administration land policies, is the lat
est to come nut for the endorsement OF
Secretary Taft and an instructed dele
CATION from this state. 1t will be re.
called that when Mr.. Walker first re.
turned from Washington he was in
opposition &c the instruction of the
Wyoming delegates. In an interview
in the Wyoming Tribune Secretary
Walker says:
"A very large number of republi-
cans have been opposed to instruc-
tons on general PRINCIPLES, and 1t was
not until the sentiment for Mr.. Taft
in the minds of any one as to the
strength of the big war secretary that
l could see any advantage in sending
an instructed delegation from Wyom'
ing.
MY personal opinion is that Mr..
Taft is the strongest of the several
presidential candidates, except posi-
bly, in those states having favorite
sons. In my recent l found
where a few weeks ago there was con-
siderable Bryan sentiment among re-
publicans, there are now very few h
would be willing to follow the lead OF
the great commoned. The republl-
cans appear to be getting together, and
where earlier in the spring consider
able Cannon, Fairbanks. Hughes, Knox
and even Foraker sentiment was en-
countered, the only names now being
mentioned are Taft, Bryan and John
son, indicating to my mind that the
republicans are uniting upon Taft,
while our friends, the democrats, are
dividing between Bryan and Johnson,
Now that Mr.. Taft has developed
a strength that apparently assures his
nomination and election. there appears
to be but n thing for the republi
cans of Wyoming to do, and that is
to send a delegation to Chicago in
structed for the war secretary. Fail
ure to do this would not hurt Mr.. Taft
a bit. but would, in my mind. seriously
impair the prestige of the state in the
convention. And failure to instruct,
in view of the almost certain success
OF Mr.. Taft, might be taken as an in
dication Of party ~dissention. whereas
on election day there will be little or
no evidence of any dissenticn so far
as choice of president is concerned.
Tn Taft l believe We have a man
who will be disposed TO take a broad
view of the many problems now con
fronting this country. l believe he will
be inclined to assist in securing legis-
lation desired by a majority of the
people Of a state or any given section
of the country. and when he sees that
a majority of the people do not favor
some existing law, and it is shown that
the said law, or the application of
rules and regulations, are Injurious or
are not in the interest OF the greatest
good to the greatest number, he will
be disposed to do what he can to Sc
sure a remedy. He has a judicial mind.
has travelled extensively. and should
be in a position to Judge OF the needs
Of the people.
