The county commissioners should
bond the county and spend the non
ey in making roads and bridges. 1t
will take at least 100000 to restore
the bridges washed out by the late
floods and to build the roads that this
county needs. 1t is an old saying,
but true, that Experience is a dear
school but most people will learn in
no other" The residents along the
streams in Carbon County, as we'll as
in other parts of the state, begin to
understand now what a Wyoming
stream can do when it gets on a tear.
As we have had no high water in
years many of our people scoffed at
the idea that these stream ever over
flowed their banks and gave the old
timers the horse laugh when they
sounded the warning. The people of
Saratoga have been nightly convin-
ced and realize that their town vas
saved by a BARS breadth. The big
iron bridge across the Platte here
looked mighty good standing clear
above the highest water that could
possibly come and you will not hear
anyone advocating the lowering of it
a single foot.
Care should be taken that all the
bridges, that are built or replaced by
the county authorities, be put high
enough to withstand the mightiest
foods that may come, for what has
been, will be again"

A Dumb Friend.

Ny dear, dumb friend. low lying there,
A willing vassal at my feet;
Glad partner of my home and fare,
My partner in the street.
] look into your great brown eyes
Where love and homage shine,
And wonder where the difference lies
Between your soul and mine.
| search the whole wide earth around
For that one heart which, leal and
true
Bears friendship without end or bound
And find the prize in you.
All, Blanco; did l worship God
As truly as you worship me,
Or follow where my master trod,
With your humility;
Did l sit fondly at his feet
As you, dear Blanco sit at mine,
And watch him with a love as sweet.
My life would grow divine.

Too much praise cannot be given
our city authorities for their ener-
getic work in the construction of the
dyke along the river bank. But for
the most persistent and heroic work
there the town would have been food
ed and thousands of dollars worth of
damage done to the business and res
idence part of the town. The dyke is
a permanent affair and will serve as a
safeguard to the town for many years
to come. The money was well spent. .

pay for it.

That Automobile Road

The Wyoming Tribune issued an
Automobile edition on the 10th inst
in which was published a map OF the
Automobile Road from Denver to the
Yellowstone Park and also thru the
state to the west. 1t left Saratoga
off the line of route, but j. B. Has
sett, secretary of the Saratoga Board
of Trade, wrote the Tribune, calling
attention to the discrepancy and also
to the fact that as the Fl. Steele
bridge had gone out, there was no
means of crossing the North Platte
river anywhere except at Saratoga.
The Tribune made the amend hon
orable, by republishing, its map
of the road, with the route
changed via Saratoga, and not
only published Nh. Hassett's letter,
but wrote a good strong editorial on
the subject, making every amend
ment possible, for which the people
Of Saratoga are much pleased. 1t
will eventually become clear to the
automobile fraternity, who contempt
ate a trip either to the Yellowstone
National Park, or to the west, that
their route lays via Saratoga, where
the only iron bridge across the North
Platte river is to be found.

BANK USES Old
WORLD SYSTEM
Thumb Marks Adapted to Mod
ern Day Banking IA
Wyoming.

Cheyenne, wyo.-Tha old Chinese
system Of Identification by thumb
marks has seen adapted to modern
banking. and the method made famous
by Mark Twain In ePuddin' Head VIII
Q Is now In practical use In the
First National bank OF this city as as
a OF Identifying the signatures OF
many foreigners who carry deposits. In
fact, the thumb mark has become as
necessary n checks drawn by that
class of the banks depositors as is
the written signature of the drawer of
the check itself. The system has been
in use In the First National for more
than a year and In that time the bank
has had not the least trouble with its
foreign depositors. but, instead. has
found the arrangement working to
perfection.
There are probably more nationals
ties represented in and around Chey-
enne than in almost any other part OF
Of the state have drawn every ma
~tionality OF Europe to themselves.
while the Union Pacific n Burling-
ton railroads have brought hundreds of
countries. Korean 'sditchers," Jap sec
ton men, Chinese workmen, Mexicans.
Indians, L~ithuanians, Czechs. Poles.
Hnngarians. Bohemians, Welchmen,
Irishmen, Greeks, italians and about
every other nationality can be found
~ OdAi0M S~AACy SaAtAC III ShS COUIS0 VI d
days search. Many of these deposit
their savings In the First National
Bank of Cheyenne, and very few
of them, comparatively, can write
their names. especially in letters which
can be read by an ordinary American
business man.
An additional OF trouble to
the bankers was that so many of the
foreigners resembled so closely others
of the same nationality that identifi-i
cation was almost impossible in many
cases. To the average American, every
Jap resembles every other Jap, while
Cinnamon are as much alike as peas.
Upon opening an account with a
bank, 1t is always customary to have
the depositor file his signature, the
more readily to detect a forgery,
should one be attempted. But the
First National people were sup against
it, when many of their depositors
placed signatures on file which were
altogether past being deeinherable.
One day Assistant Cashier A. D.
Johnson, OF the First National, be-
thought himself Of the Mark Twain
story Of Pudd'n Head Wilson, and inn
mediately he put the scheme in OPP
GRAFTON in the bank.
AS a result a foreign patron Of
the bank, when he deposits money
with the First National, is required to
place his thumb on an linked pad and
then make an impression on a card
which, with his ordinary signature and
his name as written by the bank
cashier, is deposited in the records OF
the bank. Whenever a check is pre-
sented drawn by this patron, his thumb
signature must appear on the check
n must correspond with that on the
ard in the record. If 1t docs not sc
correspond, b check Is thrown out as
a forgery.
A. d. johnson, the assistant cashier
who has charge Of this branch Of the
bank work, has become so proficient
in reading thumb signatures that he
can recognize the prints of a great
many Of the banks patrons. without
reference to the records.

Where Rich Mon Are Few.

Bulgaria is the nearest approach to a
peasant commonwealth which the world
has known in modern times. There is not
a Bulgarian Slay h is not the owner of
a plot of land upon which he lives and
out of which he gets his own livelihood
by his own labor.
Large landowners are almost unknown,
says the London Illustrated News. The
few men Of wealth in the country are
mostly OF foreign birth or descent. and
even they would not be counted as veal
thy according to the standar Of other
European countries.
The small land owners. who form the
vast majority of the population, are peas
ant born and peasant bred. They are ex-
tremely thrifty. They are contented with
plain food: they wear the same sheep
skin garments from year to year, only
turning their coats inside out with the
changes OF the season.
Moreover. they are free from the irrita-
ton caused among other laborers, over
worked IL not underpaid, by the spectacle
of neighbors living In affuence and ease
without any necessity to curtail their ex-
penditure. Rich men are black swans in
Bulgaria. I was told by a foreign banker
In Sofia who had traded for many years
in the country that he doubted greatly
whether there were fifty men in all the
rural districts who had incomes of &, 1000
q year.
