The coming town ot central Wyoming Is
Bhcridun. Located on a beautiful tovvnslto
comprising 1,100 acres , In the fortllo valleys
of Hii ) Ulir ftnd Lilttlo Oooso creeks , with
snow-capped mountains for n background ,
po < scslug the ncuclus of a vigorous , outer-
prising population , It would not bo surprising
if It should soon oaUlrlp older hnralota nnd
gtvo the southern towns u lively race for su
premacy.
The city of Shorldnii now presents an an.
pcaranco that Is pleasing to Iho fortune seekIng -
Ing visitor. New buildings nro going up
everywhere. The B. & M. railroad grade Is
bolntr built within sight of the courthouse ,
nnd b nciirly completed. Tbo depot , caishop
and track grounds have been survoyrd nnd
nro being cleared preparatory to building.
The city treasury having n surplus , the
mayor nnd bonid of trustees lire now am-
ploying a number of men bulltllng/ildowalKS
nnd tinpiovlng streets , etc. The town Is
alive with strangers and real cstixtu transfers
ore numerous.
Unld Mountain Placer mining camp , adja
cent to Sheridan , was llrsl discovered about
thirty years ugo by a party of miners travel-
Inc from the wost. They made rich discov
eries , but had to abandon them on account of
the Indians , who held Unit part ot the Gig
Horn mountains In hlch esteem , for Iho abun
dance of wild gunio , such us elk , deer , anla-
Jopo , mountain sheep , lion , boar , and many
other species. During lha summer of 18n ! )
another party was organized and sent to the
much talltod-bf lost mine. Thorcsultof their
searches was so good , that during that year
minors flocked Into the country from all
surrounding states and territories until more
than 500 people were locating nnd
nnd doing assessment work on their clalmcs.
There nro now recorded about 750 twcnty-
acre tracts of placer mining ground , with
many other now anil rich discoveries being
made dally. Buld 'mountain Is situated duu
west of Sheridan , connected with n well-
built and traveled road. There nro now four
well organized companies thoro. each holding
considerable of the beat grounds , with un
V limited amounts of capital to develop and
place machinery on their grounds. Ono of
these companies , "Tho Fortunntas Mining
company. " u organized principally of gentle-
jnrn hailing from Albany , N. Y. They now
liavo on their grounds thrco carloads of
machinery of the Uuuvrus ( O. ) make. This
amalgamator Is extensively used in Colorado ,
Idaho , California nnd other famous gold
countilvs. The Uui-yrus compnnv nont ex
ports to the camp last year who made
thorough tests and pronounced It ono of the
richest gold Holds In the world. Other com
panies contemplate nutting in machinery ns
soon as practicable. A number of small
owners are sluicing tbclr ground , mnUing So
to $10 a day to the man.
A land comimny with n capital of $1,000-
OOU has boon organized to operate at Sheri
dan , which will soon have the main line of
the Wiomlng division of the Burlington.
The men in the corporation are Thomas L.

Writing of "Washington , the Evergreen
State , " in Harper's Magazine , Julian Kalph
presents u series of instructive faots. Wash
ington is a largo as Now England and Dela
ware , on Pennsylvania and West Virginia.
It contains CU.U'Jl ' square miles. It is SCO
rnUcs wldo between the Paclllc coast and the
Idaho harder , and to journey over it from
British Columbia southward is to travel 2-15
miles. It Is the most populous of Iho now
states and Its Inhabitants outnumber those of
Oregon. In 1800 , according to the last cen
sus , it contained : MU,300 souls , but its people
now assort that they number 3(50,000. ( They
have suffered some losses in certain cities ,
or the Increase would bo from 10,000 to 20,000
greater.
The cultivation of hops Is a sjurco of largo
Income to the stato. The hop was first cul
tivated in the Puyallup rculon in ISGtl , and
with such results that in IS'Jl ' ) the crop was
GU.OOO Dales , about half of which was grown
in the Puyallup liolds. That crop was mar
keted for 02,000,000. The Industry has
spread Into the valleys of the While , Stuck ,
Snohomlsh and Skanit rivers , all to the west
ward of the Cascades , at tbo foot of which
rich valleys of alluvial soil of great ilopth
have been formed. The Washington hops
are of a high grade , and the yield , averaging
l.COO pounds to the aero , is almost threefold
that of the Holds of England , Germany and
l ew York state.
Mltntig In Washington , though Its prom
ises arc vast , is In its veriest Infancy. Tlio
production of tnctnls is Insignificant. The
flrst discovery nf the precious metals was
made by placer minors along tbo Columbia
nvor , and this ground Is "till worked , by
Chlnumon now , with trilling results. Ko-
cent discoveries bavn been miido , tlrst In the
Colvlllo district , Stevens county. It Is a
mountainous region , an extension of tbo
rich ICootonay country of British Columbia.
Silver and loud nro found there , but not yet
In such largo or promising leads as tbuso
north of the boundary. Development worlc
Is being done there ; the ores are being
sent out , and concentrators are building. In
the OUammon country , east of the Cascades
and west ot Stevens county , silver and gold
without load nro found. It is smelting.ore ,
and cheap transportation facilities are needed
for the development of the mines. Ono rail
road operator Is ready to.bulld from Marcus
on the Columbia , north of Colville , along iho
Kettle river to tbo Boundary crooic mines of
silver and cold , which show splendid pros
pects. The Colvlllo Indian reservation bin
ders him from tapping the Okanaeon coun
try. The Lake Cbcfnn prospects , so called ,
nro of argentiferous galena. At least 700
claims bnvo been taken , und this summer's
work will provo the value of the district ,
though all minors iiuallllod to judco of It
express confluence In IU great rlubnnss.
Tbo Stohegan bolt of bills , wboro the
ere Is found , runs northwest beyond
the British border. In addition to the ga
lena , athar orus are found , though not yet In
euniclont quantities to exclto tbo cupidity of
the prospectors. But the bolt contains more
limestone nnd whlto marble than tbo world
can use. It Is proposed to build n railroad to
Lake Cholnn , whereon the ere can bu boated
seventy mile * , nnd then carried by short rail
to thn Columbia , mid thus to the Great North
ern railroad at Wonntchoc.
Washington is in every material way n
grand addition to the sisterhood of status.
With the easy nnd rich fancy of the west ,
her pcoplosuv that It you build Chluosu
wall arouna Washington the state will yield
all that lior Inhabitants need without contri
butions from the outer world.

Tbo bcot sugar factory at Lnhi , U. T. ,
will begin ODoratlons September 1 with ten
furnnco ? , for n four months'run. Tlio crop
of boots thU year Is the largest over grown
In the territory. Fully three tlmos the
amount nf boots ns compared with lastycur's
supply will bo usrd by the sugar works.
The sugar compnnv bnvo 500 ncros In bcoU
this season , whllo last season they bad but
iQO ! ncrrs. Next year iho company will put
1,000 auros In boots , nud will gradually m-
create tholr acrongo until their yearly mini
mum ncrcago Is UUUO.
ThU year's boot crop for use nt the sugar
works ha * been crown under Iho supervision
of iho sugar worlis company. This Is done
In order that a boltor grade of boots may bo
grown , nnd besides It obviates iho company
analyzing Iho crop of each farmer before
fixing iho ptlco , for vegetable beets grown
under iho direction of the company sell for
$ , " > a ton nt the works.
The Importance ot the Lohl sugar mill , to
the fanners especially. Is best understood
wlion it U known that $50,000 was paid out
for beets last year. The company expects to
pny out from 3100.0UO to $ lUr > , UOO for boots
this year. There are 150,000 ! pounds of sugar
now In process of manufacture from last
year's boot crop. The sugar company last
year drew u bounty frourtho government of
U cents n pound on 1,100,000 pounds of sugar.
The company expects this year to receive a
bounty on double that , amount.

Tlio .Salmon Industry.
Tbo people of Oregon are complaining that
some of Iho methods of sblmon llsblng prac
ticed In tbo waters of tbo state threaten to
rulu the Industry. Ono of the state fish
commlssionora offars a practical remedy. Ho
would extend Ibc close season in the spring
until May I , by which time the most vigorous
of the Ibh , those that really reach tbo high
est spawning grounds , will have passed up
beyond the nets , seines , traps and wheels.
Ho would also largely extend the spawning
grounds. This plan moots with the approval
of tbo Portland Oregon Ian. which says :
"Tho increase of propagation , rutber
than curtailment ot llsblng , is
the true policy to pursue. Tbo
salmon corslllulo ono ot Iho greatest natural
resources of iho state , and the Industry of
supplying It as food to the market , both
fresh and preserved , should bo developed
and maintmiicd. Every effort should bo
made to havn it yield more money. Practical
legislation looking to increased natural prop
agation l § whit Is wanted , lull this is not
sufllc.iont. Artlllcial propagation should also
ho pushed lo tha highest point. There might
bo 'JO,001),000 ) voung salmon put Into tbo water
every your If Iho proper efforts were made ,
nnd an infinitesimal tux on salmon caught
would pay the cost of doing the wort : . "

ho drifted ihto Idaho , where Ibo gold craze
Ihon was al Us height. Nobody in the ter
ritory thought it worth while to try to got
anything out of the earth but nuggets and
golden ore , und aa result fresh vegetables
were rarer than Dolewaro pcactios have been

trouble of such a persistent and stub

nounced It Incurable with ordinary
remedies , but recommended mo to try
Ayer's Cherry Pectoral. I did so , and
ono bottle cured mo. For the last flf teen
years , I have used this preparation with
good effect whenever I take a bad cold ,

Why is it that t
Strictly
Pure White Lead
is the best paint ?
Because it will outlast all
other Paints , make a hand
somer finish , give better pro
tection to the wood , and the
first cost of painting will be
less.
If a color other than white
is wanted , tint the Lead with
the National Lead Co.'s
Pure White Lead
Tinting Colors
These colors are sold in
small cans , one pound being
sufficient to tint twenty-five
pounds of pure White Lead
the desired shade.
Be Careful
to use only old and well-
known brands of white lead.
The market is flooded with
adulterated Paints , and "so-
called" white leads. The fol
lowing are strictly pure "Old
Dutch " process brands , and are
established by a lifetime of use :
"COLLIER"
. "RED SEAL"
"SOUTHERN"
For sale by all firit class dealer * In Palnti.
