THE SALOON DISCUSSION.

The1prohibitionists, the ministerial
associations, the ~anti-saloon league,
b people in general to some extent
and even the saloon men are discussing
with, interest the probable outcome in
such state as Wyoming of the agitation
for a better regulation of the saloon
business. Mayor Cook of Cheyenne
made caustic comment upon the fact
that Cheyenne had "a saloons and said
that twenty would be a great sufi-
cheney. Cheyenne has taken hold Of
gambling with a hand, that is fairly
rigorous and now the moral element
there feels that there is reason to elm
mate the saloon that pays little at
tention to law, order or police regula
lions relating to the sale of liquor to
minors and inebriates.
In a discussion of the subject the
Wyoming Tribune quotes a Cheyenne
saloon man. a. saying.
The next legislature must nae

should be increased to $1,000 or 81, 500.

Evidence Of Better Times.

Big railway companies do not issue
millions of bonds for improvements un-
less the financial skies are clear,
and when this very thing was done
quite recently by one Of our biggest
railroads it shows that it is not alarm
ed by the cry of hard times" But
there is great cause for alarm when
you keep putting OF getting the assist
ance needed by your stomach, liver,
kidneys and bowels when they become
weak and d%ebilitated. Don't take any
further chances, but get a bottle of
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters this very
day. 1t is backed by a 55 year record.
and we guarantee it absolutely pure.

Der existing. TOR instance, at the time
of passing the law . A saloon license
should be in the nature of a franchise
carrying certain obligations as well
as privileges. The Sunday closing law
should be strictly and rigidly enforced.
The open saloon door on Sunday and
Sunday night, when other business
houses are observing the day, is doing
rs much to prejudice people against
the saloon In Wyoming as any other
one thing. l would go farther than that.
The saloons should be closed by law
from 10 p. m. to 6 a. m. The penalties
for selling to minors and intoxicated
people should be enforced. A saloon
license should be In the nature OF u
valuable franchise, transferable but
r%evocable. Make the saloon keepers
realize by a few examples that theii
licenses, worth thousands Of dollars,
will be Immediately revoked IL they
violate the law. and you won't see
many of them taking the chance for
a few two.bit pieces.
when a man has once lost his H.
cense there should be no way for him
to ever get back into the business.
Give us a law covering a few Of
these points and the agitation against
the saloon will soon die out. AS for
me, l am going to work for such legis-
lation and ! am going to work for only
such city and county officials who en-
force the law
More than this. There is little ques-
ton but that the next Wyoming legis-
lature will be called upon to act In the
matter of local option. Colorado has
such a law and the movement is grow
ing rapidly and insistently. In a re-
public 1t Is admitted that a majority
must rule in governmental matters.
Generally, the precinct has been &C
cepted as the basis. If a majority Of
the people in a certain precinct say
that there shall be no saloon, then
the saloon is abolished. This does
not necessarily mean prohibition, but
II means the gradual elimination OF
those places that are Objectionable to
a greater majority Of the people. 1t
means the betterment of the saloon
business and the restriction of the
liquor traffic to those who care for re-
spectability and who have sufficient
sense of honor to keep within the pro-
visions of the law. In its final analy-
sis, of course, 1t means that the major
lty of the people of a state must have
their way.

A WORK.

One OF the prettiest folders ever
published by a railroad has just been
given to the public by The Laramie
Plains Route" 1t consists OF eight
pages. each beautifully embellished
with a Gene calculated to make the
fisherman get busy looking up rod and
flies. The advertising matter is re-
plete with interest for the angler and
those who delight in taking vacation
trips into the country.
The literary feller' who penned the
reading matter was "on to the job"
all right. 1t is of the kind that reaches
the tagged brain of the ofice-toiler
and comrels him to get into the noun
tains. A couple of sample paragraphs
are quoted:
The lure of the stream Is irresist-
ibie. He who casts the fly forgets all
else-forgets the toll and turmoil of
the Office, the binding glare of the
electric light, the roa of the maehin
cry of the city, the unthinkable din of
the busy street. and gives himself to
the pleasure of the catch-the fight the
hooked fish makes when he feels the
line drawn tight, when he finds that
the.tempting fly, fit for the dinner of
the king of Ash, Is but a delusion. the
cruel barb hiding behind the gaudy
wing. There is nothing like it, and
few will come and go without a feeling
ofathe mystery of nature over all.
The Laramie Plains Line runs west
erly from Laramie, and it is butt an hour
of pleasant riding between the busy
railway station and the cool, peaceful,
fiowerdotted plain, split with its sill
yer cord of clear. pellucid water, dot
ted with its clumps of bushes calling
to the sport, made livid with its flash
of light and dark as the lazy ~cloudlets
drift from the mountain tops to be
scattered and rem In invisible mist

Nature has provided the stomach
with certain natural fluids known
as the digestive juices, and it is
through these juices that the food
we eat is acted upon in such a way
as to produce the rich, red blood
that flows through the veins of our
body aud thereby makes us strong,
healthy and robust and it is the
weakening of these digestive juices
that destroys health. 1t is our own
fault if We destroy our own health
and yet it is so easy tor any one to
put the stomach out of order. Wher
you need to take something take
it promptly, but take something yo.

The country editor usually
lives to a good old age. He has
MT time to die. Besides he wants
to live long enough to collect
what is coming to him from his
delinquent subscribers. He nev-
er expects to meet them after
death. They will all go to the
otheL place.
Your Uncle Tobey has a soft
place in his heart ior all country
editors. They may do wrong
sometimes, but they nearly al.
ways have sutticientprovocation.
| knew a country editor to get
in debt to everybody in the coun
ty that would trust him. He
was a young man and had no
family, and started to run of
without paying His creditors
caught him, brought him back
and wiped out all accounts that
we're against him. But they made
him run the the paper. That was
punishment enough. But he had
the fun of gong in debt again.
A country editor, who paid his
debts promptly would not be
considered an honest man. Peo
pie would think he stole the mon
ey, or wonitplayingpoker. They
would know he never got it on
subscription, or for advertising.
There was O time when an edi
