of the box. and with little effort
held Hedgesville to one run after
the third. Dixon appeared in a
Harlowton uniform for the first
time, and his hitting was feature
of the game. Hugh Evans and
Moe, whom had both received in

field positions. Harlowton will

on these plain figures, read the
leading standpat organ of the state.

Dor on the -Colorado-hast three

The answer to the above Is that Colo

comparison points out its own unmls-
taxable moral.
Moral, indeed! There are few
cases of political degradation more
sordid than this. Do the people
of Wyoming fatuously think that
they get these public buildings
without paying for themg If they
want to know Just what is the coin
they give, let them examine the
votes of their one congressman and

"ACR0SS THE CONTINENT"

There is a striking significance,
a wealth of the romantic atmos-
phere of the awakening West, and
a vivid, elaborate picture of the
wilderness responding to the
genius of Western constructive
in the beautiful book
written by Isabelle Carpenter
Kendall, entitled Across the Con-
tinent," a copy of which has just
come to the reviewing desk. 1t is
the first book of the Chicago, Mil
waukee & Puget Sound Railway,
and as a luxuriously designed and
printed volume descriptive of the
wonderlands between the Missis-
sippi and the Pacific ocean it com
pels attention as a superb work of
art. The book contains some
seventy large quarto pages of heavy
calendered paper and the elaborate
picture work in colors throughout,
as we'll as the distinctive letter
press and art work, disarm criti-
cism. Its chief significance lies in
it's demonstration of the scenic
grandeur and magnifcance of the
400 miles of new railway through
new territory in the prolific West.
The text is a concise, impressive
descriptive story of trip over the
entire line, and the reproductions
of photographs in colors are splen-
did examples of engraving and
printing art. The principal towns
and districts along the line are
comprehensively described, as well
as the chief elements of improved
railroad building that have at.
tracted worldwide attention to
the Milwaukee road, which re
presents in some respects the most
remarkable of modern accomplish
ments in railroad construction
