INITIATED A COYOTE
AND LURED TO DEATH.

Austin Nash, the 13-year-old son of
Ben Nash, the well known engineer,
shot a coyote yesterday south of the
city, says the Cheyenne Tribune. Day
was Just breaking when he spied the
animal. Quickly secreting himself be,
hind a little rise he initiated a series
of coyote yels which were natural
enough to fool Mr. Coyote, as each yell
brought him nearer, till within gun
range. Austin brought him down with
a 12-gauge SINCE barrel Stephens shot
gun, the first shot breaking his fore
legs, the next hitting him square in
the face. Austin will proudly CLAIM
the bounty and have the hide pre-
served.

The hope of our country lies IN the
press; the politicians cannot be relied
on. If man wants office his views
will be warped to the popular trend,
whether right or wrong, and it is very
important that the editors of our pa
pers should not be office seekers. thew
should not only not want office. but
they should let it be generally known
that they would not even accent office
if it were offered them. If the editor
of this paper should ever decide to offer
for office he would dispose of the
Rambler before announcing his candi-
dacy. The press of our country should
not be contaminated by office.seekinp

nal The reason is, they are behind
twelve months with their subscriptions,
and the Postmaster General has ruled
that no paper will be received for mail
ing without one cent postage stamp on
it where the subscriber is twelve
months in arrears. These subscribers
have been notified in this paper and
by statement of account, and they have
paid no attention to it. We hate to lose
subscriber, but we can't pay 50 cents
postage on a dollar subscription on a
credit, and not get but 48 cents in re-
turn. We hope you will miss the Jour
nal sufficiently to come in and pay up.
All unpaid subscriptions will be placed
