MUST HIT HIGHER GROUND.

The track of the Cheyenne and
Northern railroad seems to lie in a
peculiarly unfortunate path. Almost ev-
cry year it is troubled witr washouts.
For a great distance its line runs down
the valley of the Chug. which drains a
vast area of country subject to cloud
bursts and torrential rains. Over in
that section dry gullies at times be-
come raging torrents. During the past
week the track of this railroad vas
washed out in places for a distance of
almost thirty miles n the road was
put out Of commission so far as
through trains were concerned for a
week. In the winter season this same
valley is subject to heavy, drifting
SHOWS. making blockades a thing to be
looked for.
Possibly at some future date a
change may be made to higher ground
and the present difficulties entirely
done away with. Roads that follow
closely to the water level of a stream
such as the Chug find plenty of trou-
bic.
Clark found where he had made .
mistake in this respect with his San
Pedre line. For miles and miles his
road runs down inconsequential
treams, following closely to their
beds, and a year ago, it will be recall
ed, enough OF his line was put out OF
business to make 1t necessary to al
III the Los Angeles Limited trains for
weeks. Railroads must hit the high
places more frequently.

WHEN Is A RACE?

Often 1t falls to the lot of man to
make over his ideals. Times change,
the world does move The thing we
feared yesterday we make a ~plaything
of today. The ~chrysalis sheds its coat
and becomes a gaudy butterfly, the
grounding comes out of its hole, the
African from his woodpile. That is
what makes us ask what Is a race?
A little while ago O rae was every
thing that meant ability to get to the
front. In the matter OF horse racing
1t was a contest between certain owners
who had failed to agree about the
speed of their several animals. When
such disputes arose 1t was customary

REPUBLICAN STATE TICKET.
THE PLATFORM.

1t now seems certain that the ma
tional platform OF the republican party
will contain planks squarely in line
with the advanced position taken dur.
ing the past seven years-a position
which the Mckinley administration
led up to and which has been wrought
u and emphasized by President
Roosevelt.
There is to be no backward step In
the matter of governmental control of
the great combinations of capital. 1t
has come to be recognized by the peo-
pie and even by the combinations
themselves that 1t Is one of the neces-
sary functions of the government to
have a controlling management of the
creatures 1t launches upon a business
career. Otherwise these children OF
fortune become unruly and seek to
rise above the creative power. Upon
the tariff there will be a wise plank.
Wyoming looks to the tariff plank as
much as to any other portion OF the
platform. 1t recognizes that there is
a strong demand throughout the ma
ton for a revision Of the schedules.
The present act has been in effect a
dozen years and quite naturally there
are some matters that need adjusting,
but that adjustment must be made
along the lines advocated by the repub-
lican party. The policy of protection
to American labor and American in
dustries must be breathed into every
line OF 1t. There must be no more
Wilson bill for Wyoming. The tariff
for revenue policy of the democratic
party brought us down to grief, misery
and o Every industry languished
and the sheep business dropped al.
most out of sight. {
As long as the western end Of the
matter ia handled by such men as we
now have in congress, Wyoming fee
rather safe. But that would only be
true with a republican congress and a
republican president. This state
stands in the forefront of the wool
business and when the wool schedule
comes up for discussion in the senate,
the senators of the east will listen to
Warren of Wyoming on that matter.
AS it was when the Dingley bill was
passed, SO it will be when the tariff
is revised, AS Aldrich of Rhode Is
land said when the wool schedule was
under debate, No matter what any
of us may say about this matter, the
wool schedule will finally be written
by the cnator from Wyoming"
While Wyoming has looked upon r
vision of the tarif with some fear and
trembling, The Republican believes
that matters are SO adjusting them
selves that We viii be safe. Surely we
will be safe If the president, congress
and the Wyoming delegation are of the
same political party. The only chance
for change in Wyoming this year is in
the congressman, and that is so re-
mote that it is hardly worth consider
ing at all. Even Mr.. White must look
upon his candidacy as merely a filler
on the ticket.

PAPER.

Washington, April 2S.-Before a

Publishers association, today sub
mitted further evidence in support of

combination exists and that the price
of paper has been arbitrarily raised.
He refuted the contentious of the
manufacturers that his increase in
price has been partly due to higher
freight rates, and submitted a com
munication from the interstate com
mercc commission showing the
freight rates from the principal mills
to the larger consuming points from
which it appeared that with one or
