For Trees and Nations Dead

One of the prettiest brochures
ever issued from a state depart
ment has just been published
by State Superintendent A. d.
Cook, covering Arbor and Memoir
ial days. 1t is illustrated profusely
with beautiful pictures of Wyom-
ing scenery. the scenes being laid
in almost every county. The text
embraces Governor Brooks Arber
day proclamation, an address to
the teachers of the state by the
state superintendent and some ex-
cellent selections appropriate to
Arbor day.
In the memorial day section of
the pamphlet there are two articles
that will be read with great in
terest by all old veterans as we'll
as the people of the state in gen.
eral. They are from the pens of
General P. A.. Gachell and Colonel
j. F. Crawford. General Gachell
tells of the terrible slaughter that
befell the Maine regiment of which
he was a member. Before Peters,
burg 632 of 900 belonging to that
regiment were killed. Compared
with the fatal charge at Peters
burg, the charge of the light
brigade so beautifully portrayed
by Tennyson pales into insigniti-
canoe,
Colonel Crawford .recounts a
personal experience Of thrilling
interest. 1t was at the battle of
Resaca, and altho the writer does
not mention the fact. it is our i'm
preston that he was wounded dur
the engagement.
Both the articles referred to are
intensely interesting and will be
read by old veterans with keen in
terest
Taken in it's entirety the public
alton is a great credit to the Office
of State Superintendent Cook and
will meet with a generous rece pit
at the hands of the schools and
Grand Army posts.-Laramie

Beautiful Percheron Stallion

r. F. Dildine, the liveryman
and dealer in fine horses, of Chey-
enue, came up yesterday from that
place, bringing the large Percher-
on stallion, Timmonier. The stall
lion is intended for Richmond's
barns and will be- found at that
place for the next three or four
months. Timmonier is a beauti-
fully marked animal, being a dap
pie grey. He is l63 hands in
heighth and weighs TOO pounds.
He was brot to this country by F.
A. Haisell, who purchased him of
Secretary Wilson. He is a splen-
did animal and we'll worth the
admiration among horssmsn he is
drawing forth.

The Herald 10 Mistaken

The land laws say that when a
man has secured water for his
desert claim and has cultivated
one eighth of the land he is enti-
tied to a patent for same. Thru
some arbitrary bureau rulings this
has been made 30 stringent that a
man could not get a patent until
he had cultivated all his land
Secretary Ballinger issued in
siructions to land officers to accept
final proof on Desert land when
the settler has complied with the
law, that Is; one eight of his land.
Thus Ballinger proves a friend of
the settler acknowledgements
Herald.
The Herald is mistaken. There
has been no change in the desert
land laws or rulings for the past
four or five years. All the change
in the rulings at that time was:
That whereas. an Increased
growth of grass" on one eight of
the land had heretofore been ac-
cepted by the Department as
sufficient evidence of cultivation"
it was ruled that an agricultural
crop of some kind must have been
raised on the land by cultivation,
i. e.,plowing, where it was possible
instead of the Increased growth
of grass" Aside from that change
the desert land laws stand exactly
as they have stood for years, and a
man who makes proof, showing
that he has raised an agricultural
crop on one eighth of his land,
and has water for the rest of mis-
claim, is sure of his patent.

Sioux Falls, s. D. yesterday. He
was in partnership in the ferry
down the North Platte river
known as Benefits Ferry" He
sold out his interest in the firm in

The old ferry was stationed down
on what is now the Mcfarland
ranch, some eight or nine miles
below this place. Mr., Reidsel,
who remembers this as a desert
waste, covered with game, is nat
u~rally very much surprised at the

Senator Warrsn's Views

The following from the Even
no Star of Washington expresses
~ opinions of Senator Warren
oncerning President Taft in the
90, and the Deficient results of
he new tariff:
aWhen election time comes
Resident Taft will be more firmly
stablished than ever in the conf
epce of the people and the admir-
bic workings of the new tariff law
i'll be- generally admitted"
This is the prediction of Sena-
br Warren of Wyoming, who las
hat returned to Washington from
trip to the west, during which
\ made inquiries among republi-
ms as to their feeling toward the
ADMINISTRATION.
Out in my section the people
he thoroughly satisfied with
resident Taft" says Senator
Earren. They regard him as a
Afp and conscientious President,
tho has the interests of the people
,narmost in mind. He ia con-.
kantly adding to the number of
lis friends"
! Senator Warren, in answer to a
uestion, declared that the tariff
kw was generally satisfactory.
ave must remember that no
riff bill ever was enacted which
leased everybody. 1t individual
binions were to be consulted. II
Srif bill would have a million
ifcrent scedules. Consequently,

"The fact is, however, that this

Edition to this the percentage of
pods coming in under the free
st is larger today than ever be-
