WYoMNe@Situated on the North Platte River, on the
line of the Saratoga & Encampment Railway, Population, 1000,
Altitude. 6,785 feet. 1t is the site of the Medical Hot Springs, the
waters of which are a sure specific for all blood and skin diseases,
rheumatism, stomach, liver and kidney disorders. Temperature OF
water 1873 degrees. Saratoga is also the center of the finest trout
fishing grounds in the World. Not only the North Platte River
teens with Rainbow, Brook and Salmon trout, but the numerous
tributaries of that stream are alive with fish. Saratoga is the center
of an agricultural country of 100000 acres Of the best agrcul-
tural land in the west. The soil and climate re adapted to the
growth of alfalfa wheat, oats, barley, all kinds of small fruits and
vegetables The Saratoga Valley is the finest stock raising country
in the United States. The Sierra Madre range on the west and the
Madeleine Bow range of mountains on the east, are full of copper,
gold and silver, which is being developed rapidly. All of tue re-
sources of the valley center at Saratoga, which is certain to become
one of the greatest towns of the west. For information address, The
Saratoga Commercial Club, The Saratoga State Bank, The First Ma
tional Bank or the Saratoga Sun.

The Eleventh state legislature should make provisions for the
the establishment of a fish hatchery in this part of Carbon county
during the year 1911. Our streams have been filled with trout for.
years, one of the best drawing cards any country ever had, but it is
certain they are not going to remain full unless some steps are taken
to replenish them at once and to provide means for a source of supply
right here in the valley. By the time the young spawn grow large
enough to take a fly the present supply will all be exhausted. These
trout streams have not only drawn large numbers of people to the
state, especially this part of il, thus bringing a continual stream of
money to the communities here, but they have furnished a food sup
yv for our own people that has been a large item in the cost of living
The Sun hopes the time will never come when the people here will
not be able to go to any of these streams and find an abundance of
food for their tables.
We need, and must have, a fish hatchery in the valley which will
be large enough to supply these streams with spawn. The state
can well afford to build a permanent hatchery at some convenient
place here, which can be depended on to supply the fifteen Dr. twenty
small tributaries of the North Platte river, a g we'll as that stream it.
self with spawn each year, for it is only by continue. stocking, from
year to year, that these streams can be depended on to meet the de-
mands that will be made upon them. 1t was a great mistake that
the state ever allowed the hatchery o Centennial creek to fall into
disuse We hope that the administration, which will take charge
of the affairs of the state in January, 1911, will bar this matter in
mind and see that the need is supplied.

Judge Carey Sets Forth Platform

Judge Carey has set forth a platform by which he intends to work
Turing his administration of the states affairs. To some of those
principles the Sun a subscribe. To others it cannot give its 49,
seut ltis in favor now, as it. has been in the past, to "a clean.
honest, economical government" The Sun is not in favor of a dir.
ect primary law. In many places where it has been tried it has
not proven ito be Ill that has been claimed for it. We predict that
the Direct Primary" will have to GO.
The headess Australian ballot can be tried. 1t NAV prove to
be all right, but it will have to be tried first, The Sun is in favo,
If the commission form of government. Wherever it has been tried
has given satisfaction and we hope the next Legislature will pass a
law similar t. that now in use in some of the states. Iowa for example.
"us O"rey says Line people were responsive. No money
W rs used to corrupt them by my associates O n myself, nor was the
rtufkng of ballot boxes or the s of illegal votes to influence the de.
cision resorted to" Well, perhaps not much money was used, but it
quite certain that money, or dope, or something was used in some
the precincts.

THANKSGIVING in the Year 1910

The years keep rolling around and every Recurring November
finds us turning from the hurry and hustle of life, its pleasure and
sorrows, to the day set apart for Thanksgiving. No matter how
slowly We progress W do make some advancement and while that adj
vancement can only be told by looking backward we realize that we
have not stood still in the march of time. The year has been a
prosperous one for Wyoming, as we'll as the rest of the world and this
part of the state can count another milestone passed on the road to
success. We none of us dreamed, say 40 years ago, that this wild
erness" in the Rocky Mountains would be the home of a busy, indust.
tous people aud, while we may strain on eyes to see what the future
has in store for us, we art not able to conceive the remarkable changes
that will take place here in the Great West during the next forty years.
1t we ar to Judge the future by the past-our only method of arriving
at conclusions-this will then be the center of a great bee hive of in
duHrious humanity.
With this hope and belief strong in our minds W e can turn aside
on this Thanksgiving Day to devote a few hours to social relations
md celebrate the event which binds u to that fol- off first Thanks
giving Day, celebrated by onr fore-fathers OIL tine rough and rugged

Carbon County will loom up in the next Legislature like a house
