"BlG TIM" SULLIVAN is DEAD;
WAS KILLED BY TRAIN
New York, Sept. 13.-"Big Tim"
Sullivan, formerly one of New York's
most noted politicians, beloved by the
lower East Side by reason of the free
shoes and coal in winter and clam
bakes and picnics in summer, is dead.
His body was found at Pelham Bay,
where he had evidently been struck
by train on the day he disappeared,
two weeks ago.
The body was taken to the morgue,
and when the rumor of his death cir
culated the place was besieged by
men, women and children, many cry

the men furtively brushing their
hands across their eyes.

They've gone and found some other
guy and think it's him."
Lawrence (''LarTy'') Mulhgan, half
brother of Sullivan, was admitted to
the morgue and after one look at the
dead man, he broke into sobs., AS
he stumbled out of the place, with the
tears running down his cheeks, the
crowd outside knew there was moth

dead.
Several months ago Sullivan was
adjudged incompetent by court and
his affairs placed in the hands of a

THE GOOD ROADS MEETING.
Enthusiastic Meeting Held Here Last
Night With the View Of Putting Sara
toga and Elk Mountain on the Map.

Last night at the city hall the
business men of Saratoga met with
the members of the Elk Mountain
Commersial Club who came in on
the train in the morning for the
purpose of uniting Saratoga and
Elk Mountain on the good roads
of this end of the county, as well
as to lay out a plan to advertise
both towns and valleys through
out the east to the people who are
coming through here during the
big Fair at San Francisco.
The meeting was called to order
about 8 O'Clock and the matters
before the meeting were briefly
stated. Mr.. Kilborn, the Secretary
of the Wyoming Highways ad-
dressed the meeting and stated
their proposition to the meeting
in a very decisive manner. MI.
Kilborn is a good talker and every
one was interested. The matters
were taken up pro and con by
every one present, and it proved
to be a very INTEREST," & meeting.
Mr.. Hunter and Mr.. Kilbourn
both urged Saratoga to form a
Club or an Association in order
to work with Elk Mountain to the
benefit of both places. Mr.. Hunter
told of what the Elk Mountain
Club had done toward putting
that place on the map.
Persuant to a notion, which
was carried, the meeting elected
j. ID. Paulson, president, and the
balance of the officers were elected
and q committee appointed to
draft bylaws and to name the
association. Especial attention
was given to the matter of rebuild
ing the old U. P. grade, and the
secretary was instructed to draw
up a petition to the County Com
missioners, to protest against the
proposed action.

Arbor Day Proclamation.

Friday, April '25th, 1913, has
been proclaimed Arbor Day for the
state of Wyoming by it's Govern
or. This day is becoming more
observed over the state year by
year and it should be, for there is
nothing nicer in yards, streets, or
any where else than trees and
shrubbery. We hope that the
citizens OF Saratoga will observe
the day. There is only one thing
that is hardly in keeping with this
day and that is the date set, which
has been set about three weeks to
a month too late every year since
it was first proclaimed in this state.
1t won't hurt when you set out
trees, 30 long as you do it some
time in the year. 1t isn't neces-
sary to observe Arbor day on the
day set, you can observe it any
time you may like by setting your
own date-just SO long as you do
it,

Isaac Plat Returned.

Isaac Platte and his two daugh-
ters have returned from McGill,
New, and will make their home
again on the ranch on Beaver
creek. They have been in McGill
since last fall and while they like
it there they are glad to get back.
Mr.. Plat stated that his daughter,
Mrs. May Stone, died at McGill
on the 10Th of last month, from
acute gastritis. MRS. Stone was
rational to the last and was aware
there was no hope. She bid good
bye to all the dear ones at her bed
side and resigned herself to her
God, and asked no favoIs. She
was a good women and while she
disliked to leave her two little
girls, she put her faith in the life
to come, and what was to be could
be no other way, and was cheeful
to the last. The funeral services
we're conducted from the Episco-
pal church by the Eastern Star
and Yoeman, of which she was a
member, accompanied by the Odd
Fellows to whom her husband and
father are both members. She
was a little over 26 years OF age
and leaves a husband and two lit.
tie daughters, besides her relatives
here.

The Benefit PROGRAM.

The benefit progrsm gotten up
for the relief of the tornado suff-
erers in the town of Ralston, Neb.,
Tuesday evening was a big sue
cess from both standpoints of ex-
cellence and financially. This pro-
gram was gotten up in four days
and it was one of the best ever
given in Saratoga at any price or
at any time. The letter asking
for relief was received here last
week and all of the local talent in
the line of music and elooution
were gotten together and put ON
this program. With the help of

Washington. D. C.. Letter.

With the democrats assuming
control of the senate, the two Wy
oming senators have given up
their important committee chair
manship. Senior Warren is geven
the craftsmanship of the committee
on Engrossed Bills and Senator
Clark that of Geological Survey.
Both, however, retain their men,
bership in all of the big commit
tees, being ranked minority mem
bers Of some of the more impor-
tant ones. This mean the Sena-
tors will be made c%onferces on
every big bill affecting the West
and the nation, and in such posi-
ton they will have commanding
influence. Representative Mon
dell will remain a member OF the
Appropriations committee and OF
the Interior Expenditures COM
mittees. He has been importuned
to 90 on the Ways and Means,
but believes he can be of more
service to his constituents where
he is, and refuses to take what IL
considered the more important
assignment.

Make Greatest Feeding Center.

We have watched for several
years, the feeding of sheep. cattle
and hogs, on a small plan in this
valley. Every now and then our
attention is called to something
some one has done in this line,
Just to show what might be ac-
complished on big scale. A
number have fed hogs and made
good money out of just a few.
There is nothing sure about the
hay market in this valley, and
the most money is made feeding
cattle. Hundreds have demonstra-
ted what feed cattle will do in this
valley. The man who has fed his
hay to cattle, no matter what the
lprice, is the man has won out.
Thousands of lambs and old sheep
have been shipped to Nebraska
and other points to feed them for
market, yet we will venture that
there is no better place in the
west to feed lambs than right in
this valley. We can grow any
kind of feed for hogs, sheep and
cattle and plenty of it to feed
thousands of head. The crops
here are always sure and that is
the main thing.
We learned the other day from
Mr.. White of a bunch of bum
lambs that MI. Kincaid was feed
ing out on the White ranch. MIR.
Kincaid got these lambs last spring
and as a bum lamb has a hard
time in the beginning there is not
much to them to start life on and
as a rule they are stunted more or
less. These lambs have had the
run of the pasture all last summer
and this winter and they could go
10 tue dlldiid duu udtlNt udy stdShs
whenever they chose. Noticing
that they appeard to be in pretty
good shape, Mr.. Kincaid weighed
some of them and they went as
high as l36 pounds and they are
only 10 months old. This is a re-
markable weight for a ten months
lamb that has had little or no
special care.
This valley is naturally adapted
to feeding and that ID what it
should be used for, and the sooner
that ranch people are feeding
stock of some kind instead of
waiting upon markets, they will
begin to SET the wisdom of this
matter and is a few years they
will have dollars where they o
have the promise.

1t has come to the knowledge
of the Elk Mt. commercial club
that certain parties are attempting
to have the county commissioners
fix up the old U. P. R. R. grade
between the old town of Carbon
and Dana as an auto highway
what is the use of such an absurd
undertaking? A road there would
not benefit a single person it
would cost the county an enormus
sum to make it passable. The
writer has talked with a large
number of residents, especially
those living in Hanna and along
the old grade and failed to find a
a single one in favor of such a
wild scheme. There are more
than 81 old culberts deep holes to
be bridged there is no place on the
where two cars could pass
opposite directions and it
only Sft wide on top when in
use, in disuse it has washed to 5ft.
There is one living in the county
would be any use to let the
county commissioners fix up the
roads between Hanna and Elk Mt.
between Medicine Bow and diff
between Hanna and Rocky
ford and places where it will be a
benefit to the tax payers. 1t takes
four good horses to pull two weeks
supplies to the ordinary small
ranch now.

Big UNDERTAKING
Call for Bids by County on Old .. P, Grade
East Of Waloott to Medicine Bow.
Leaves Most Of the County Out.

The Coupny Commissioners have
advertised for bids for the repair
of about 35 miles of old Union
Pacific grade from Walcott east
nearly to Medicine Bow. We are
informed by competent people that
this will be almost the same as
throwing the money away. The
bridges are all out and it will take
nearly $4,000 for the timber alone
to replace them. There is one
place where two cars can't pass
for nearly five miles and in some
places the embankment is 20 feet
high. In rainy weather this grade
will not only be dangerous to good
drivers, but poor ones will wreck
their machines.
We are informed that the money
to fix this grade up, if done prop
erly would be about ten times
what it woul1 take to fix up the
bad places in all the rest of the
roads. in the county. Just why
this road is to be fixed up we can't
see, but there is no evident reason
for it, and besides this road would
run through the most desolate
route in the county and would
only touch at Old Carbon and
Medicine Bow, leaving out Hanna,
Elk Mountain, and last but not
least, Saratoga would be as badly
off as it is now, because the only
place they could connect with this
route would be at Walcott.
What we want ia roads, that run
somewhere and show some of the
country to the travelling public.
Such places as Old GORDON should
BIZ cut off the route entirely. What
this county needs is to show its
self to the world, and not to run
people through the deserted towns
and out through the hills where
coyotes get lonesome If Sara
toga intends to be satisfied with
connecting with the big route at
Walcott instead of out here about
IL miles where people might come
in and stop for a few days, where
they wouldn't come from Walcott.
all we'll and good. We feel, in
putting this matter before the
public that we have done our
duty and it is up to them to do
some thing or not, just suit them
selves.
Under the provision of Section
2472 of the Compiled Statutes of
Wyoming, this old grade would
have to be IL to Is feet wide and
it will have to be shown that it is
a road for the benefit of the peo.
Pile who live along it. This road
would cost up in the thousands
and is not the class of road that
comes under this provision of the
statutes.
We are badly-behind and short
of money for this work now from
the expenditure of the past four
years, and what little money that
We have to spend on this matter
should be spent where the people
could get some permanent good
from it, other than the tourists
travel.
In 1909 this county spent $4,000
for roads and bridges In 1910
We spent $4,000, in 1911 we spent
$4,000 and in 1912 we SPENT

county for up this valley to the
