He prayed to see the happy day
(Since Fortune seemed to owe it).
He met it on the friendly way
And didn't know it!
And so it is, through life we go;
When Joy comes, still we doubt it.
We're oft in heaven and never know
A thing about it!

Marvellous"
This is practically their second

ed anything ever seen in the
dry-land west in the way of farm
and garden exhibits.
WeVould put the attendance
at 800. This alone is marvellous
when the newness of the coun-
try is considered, in connection
with the fact that the only ad-
vertising was 500 dodgers gotten
out only two weeks before the
day of the fair.
Next year Kim will have a
three-days' program, there will
be a regular fair ground, and ev-
erything will be done in regular
fair style. Incidentally, the war
garden sold for $83.OO-beneft

OCTOBER 1ST

J We are this week sending state.
mentsto thosein arrears, and those
whose subs will be up by the
first of the year.
We have placed the date at Oc.
tober / for the payment of ar.
rearages, and the names Of the
others notified will be promptly
dropped when sub expires, if not
paid.
Nine tenths of our subscribers
in arrears are as good as gold
but war orders are war orders.
The newspaper boys will short
ly (st of October) receive ques
tionaires to fill out and swear to,
and no publisher is going to per-
iure himself because his sub.
scribers in arrears ARE as
good as gold.
So, you may he wortt. a mill
ion dollars or nothing, but if the
first of Octoper the sub. isn't
paid, the name will be dropped.
AS stated, the newspapers have
no choice. and we consequently!
do not think that anyone will en-
tertain herd feelings towards the
editor because he receives the
statement, or if after the 1st
prox the paper should cease to
come.
We are certain that the only
danger IF the latter-of those
who intend to pay, will be their
negligence in the matter.
Here is the real danger: Some
who read this aud read the state.
ment viii, say, well. ! must send
that right in" but will put it of
and put it off, and the first thing
they are aware of the time has
lapsed.
Do it right now.

bulging out the little David just

Brother. Barkhanson sure has
met up with some hard luck in
his personal efforts at guiding
the great democratic ship OF
state. First he mounted the
big guns and turned them on the
fort of Honest John, and Bonest
John was designated without
opposition. Then he directed the
shelliBg of Fl. Edward Keating,
and Heating went through the
primaries like a whirlwind. Then
he turneh all the shore batteries
on the newly-launched ship Tom
lyman, and the ship rode right
into the good old democratic
port, given a clean bill Of health
and then turned its prov to-
wards Port Denver, where it will
land on the fifth of Novem ber
and abide for the next four
years. What Bro. Barkhauson
would better do now is to get
aboard this good old ship and be
happy ever after.

BY the Writer
Rarnev WRIGHT continued.


One of the shots fired found,
the left side of Barney Wright,
and lodged somewhere near the
spine.
1t was Officially" announced
that the shot that caught Barney
came in through the window, but
a number of shots were fired,
and probably Barney himself
didn't know just who it was that
nipped him.
incidentally, after the shouting
he was moved to the hotel, and
the next morning was brought to
his home at Boston.
Drs. Brown and Hawk were
the doctors having charge, and
for something like three weeks
did all in their power for the pa
tienu, but finally after great
hopes blood poisoning set in, and
a few days thereafter Barney
passed away to the great un-
known, where firearms and
booze are equally ou!lawed. and
card playing and crap shooting
will be no more.
We are not certain, but pre-
sumo Barney slaidtorestin the
Boston cemetary, and that his re-
mains could now be found in an
unmarked grave in that old-time
morgue.
Bill Lipdley and Geo. Nethercut.
Bill was man of some affairs,
having accumulated some prop
erty, probably partly by labor,
partly by business, partly by
ioclleying. and partly by gamb-
ling, and by other tangable and
intangible ways of getting mon
ey.
Bill was big, square built fell
low, and wanted it generally I'M
derstood that he was or would be
a bad man to monkey with, and
that what he wanted he was able
to get.
Bill and George made severa.
trips to Man S Land on their
trading expeditions, and on one
or two occasions represented
themselves as us. marshals, and
by that means took some horses
that probably the other fellow
didn't have a very clear title to
and got by ways that were even
more reprehensible.
This incident is mentioned here
because it was some of these du
bious ways Of getting horses out
of No.Man's Land that was
largely responsible for the linal
grand roundup Of Boston, which
we wilt reach later on in these
writenps.
William Fl. YaW.
We are mentioning Yaw here
because he was connected with a
horse affair that was really the
direct cause of the final Boston
grand roundup aforesaid, and
which will be related when we
get to that part of the story.
Yaw was none of the things
that was mentioned in connection
with Lindley and Nethercut. He
were not a gambler, jockey, a
ioafer. nor any of the other at
tributes that go into the dubious
life of one of that nature.
When Yaw came to Boston,
about the spring of 1887, he built
