STRINGING RAILS TO SHOSHONI
,
Work of Constructing n Railroad Is
Gigantic A New Wyoming.
The building of n lallioad is a gi
gantic undertaking. One day I paid
a visit to thu yards of the Shoshonl
extension. Mr Walker had just com
pleted nn liuolce of the construction
material In the yards and found It to
figure up almost n half million dollars.
This was simply stock on hand. For
months , he had been receiving nnd
sending cjut dolly thousands of dol-
lais woith of nintcilal. Although the
load was completed over fifty miles
Cowards Shoshonl Mr. Walker said
, Uuit they would need six more trainloads -
loads of tics alone to complete It to
Shoshonl. It Is a hundred miles from
Casper to Shoshonl and lender Is
sixty miles farther The laborers at-
ti acted my attention The yaid men
and matcilol handlers consist of the
lower grades of Italians , Moravians ,
Greeks , Huns , Cioatlans , Bulgarians ,
Mnvgais , Slavs nnd llounmnlans and
their ineo hatred , feuds and holidays
would furnish nmtcilal for a book
Every day one or the other faction or
sect was having n fight or n holiday
and of coin he they couldn't think of
working under such interesting dis
tractions. Each bet speaks a dlffeient
dialect or language nnd voiy few can
understand English. Woikmen of one
nationality will not associate with or
work with those of another nnd the
difficulties of the boss who undei takes
to accomplish anything with this class
of labor can readily be imagined ,
"What are we to do ? " inquired Mr.
Walker. "It is the only chibs of labor
we can obtain. " These foreigners can
not be used on the grade for they me
the company's chemist. The doctor
has an Interesting theory of the or
igin of petroleum. Ho has succeeded
In Isolating , from the distillation of
100 barrels of crude oil , a nitrogenous
body which chemists call \lrldlno.
This Is the highest member of the
pyrldlno series and tha doctor main
tains that Its presence In oil Is proof
of the fossil and not mineral or veg
etable origin of petroleum. In other
words , countless thousands of great
and small nnlmaltt that once inhabited
the surface of the earth perished and
their bodies beciimo submerged nnd
distilled or rendered Into oil.
"Silver OCCUIH In veins , gold Is
whereon find It" Thus wrote the
wise man thoiiMMidn of jenrs ago and
all the theoiles of mineralogists hnxo
not changed this postulate of the un
dent M\RC In Wyoming gold Is found
In the most lmpiobnblo formations.
It occurs in Iron ore , In copper , In
porphory nnd In llinc scattered all
over the state nnd a systematic search
Is bound to rovenl marvellously ilch
deposits.
Nothing in the recent hlstoiv of

Near Casper the government has
been constructing a reservoir by build
ing a dam across the North Platte.
This lake when completed will have
a coast line of 100 miles and will be
200 feet deep and 200 feet wide. The
dam is built In the form of a semi
circle with the convexity up stream.
It is mitered Into both walls of the
canyon and keystoned to resist pres
sure. The spillway Is a tunnel cut
through the canyon wall and so large
that teams can bo driven through It
This dam suffered great damage from
the recent flood. The Salt creek oil
wells between Casper nnd Shoshonl
are superficial wells that have lost
all their volatile properties , presum
ably through ages of evaporation but
are valuable for their lubricating oil ,
the finest In the world. This oil will
stand n flro test of COO degrees fahren-

uable products which have been made
of commercial importance through the
