President Mitchell addressed the

to have metaliferous miners strike if
We coal miners struck. Coal can be
mined when gold miners are not work

is no coal"

to the state engineer for water and
permission to construct a dam in the
Big Horn canon near Basin for the

to his office. holding hands. two by

with the ribbon sash. and cheeks
redder than the ribbon, and he.
very grand too as far as clothes go,
but so nervous that he alternately
wears and carries his hat and isn't
sure whether his name is Tom or
Harry any more; what We are trying
to say is that the justice is SO much
sought for by people in that fix that
il is no wonder that he made lit
tie mistake Wednesday afternoon.
The man in the case put in his ap-
pearance at the Justices office and
it didn't take eyes half as sharp as
Mr.. Stevens to see that the visitor
was a prospective groom. His white
vest and white countenance were
suspicious and his absolute inability
to control his hands and feet were
certainties. The good justice saw
fees ahead and a chance to bid yet
another couple godspeed.
But all the man wanted to know
was where he could find a preacher
for the job.
And the justice obligingly told
him and Is telling the story on HIM
self today with great good humor.
