LINCOLN , Fch. 28. ( Speclnl. ) State
Treasurer Mcacrvo will tomorrow call in out
standing university funtl warrants to the
amount of $20,000. On March fl ho will make
another call for $30,000. Ha proposes to pur-
uo the policy of calling In outstanding war
rants as rapidly as the cash can bo col
lected from depository hanks Which
Toluntarily surrender their deposits with
out walling for the decision of
the case now pending before the
up re mo court. In addition to these
funds , money Is coming In In small amounts
rom county treasurers. Treasurer Meacrvo
liad adopted a policy In marked contrast to
that pursued by his predecessor. Ho will
permit no further accumulations of general
funds. If the supreme court decides that ho
must accept the depository accounts as they
land , the state treasurer will commence at
once to gradually draw In the money held by
the depository hanks ; hut ho announces odl-
clally that he will take no steps that will
endanger the commercial Interests of the
elate. In ordinary 'business ' times , when
money was plenty and hanks In well fortified
conditions , ho would draw out the general
fund now lying Idio In the depository banks
and apply the whole amount to the extin
guishment of the warrant Indebtedness. As
It Is , ho will arrange with the depository
banks to draw In their holdings In graduated
Installments. He hopes to mnko a call for
general fund warrants twice each mouth , and
may bo able to make a call every
ten daya. On March 10 ho will have held his
offlco two month ! and by that tlmo will have
made four calls for warrants , the aggregate
amount of the four calls reaching $300,000.
LEGISLATIVE WORK DELAYED.
Two-thirds of the biennial leglnlatlve ses
sion has clnpted and the work Is far In ar
rears. In the forty days which hnvo
been spent In legislative work since- the ses
sion convened but three bills have found
their way to the desk of the chief executive.
Two of these bills provided for the pay of
the members , employes and expenses of the
legislature Itaelf and the other provided for
the recount of the ballots on the constitu
tional amei.dment. I3oth the house- mid the
senate have passed numerous measures , but
the senate has Ignored the house bills and
the hills passed by the senate are reposing
pcacf.fnlly on the general file of the house
or are snugly concealed In the pigeon holes
of the desks In the committee rooms. Work
has been greatly delayed In the house by
the long delay of the committee on ways
nnd means In reporting the big approprla-
tloa bills. The general appropriation bills
wore reported only yesterday.
The hcuso Is still under Friday's busi
ness and tomorrow's work will appear lu
the printed journal as having been accom
plished on Friday last.
The committee on claims reported a par
tially complete bill yesterday afternoon , but
Us work Is far from finished , nnd many
claims muni yet be adjusted and added to
the bill In the shape of amendments. The
salary bill and the general appropriation
budget will doubtless go to the house to
morrow. They must lie on the secretary's
desk until Tuesday , when they will be read
the seconil tlmo by their titles and sent to
the printer. They will hardly return from
the printer before the close of the week.
Then they must he considered in committee
of the whole , and unless all signs fall every
line wjll b'e the subject of debate. There is
unquestionably a "strong and general desire
to cut appropriations to the minimum ; but
It Is notlcablonhat a "large number 'of 'the
statesmen In the lower house prefer to have
the economy commence over In the next
county. * With them economy , unlike charity ,
Is moro beautiful to contemplate when It
docs not commence at home.
The senate will take Us own time In con
sidering the two bills when thr-y reach the
upper body. Men who hnvo been hero many
sessions are freely predicting that the legis
lature will be In session when the calendar
points to April 15.
COl NTING THE BALLOTS.
It Is expected that the recount of the bal
lots on the constitutional amendments will
be commenced at the olllce of the secretary
of state tomorrow. Thn commissioners 'ap
pointed by Governor Holcomb have all ac
cepted. A pile of ballotEi ai ; large as a fur
niture van occupies one side of the com
mittee room of the secretary's onice , but
few counties having failed to respond to the
call for the records. The count will proceed
under the law already passed by the legis
lature , but It Is likely to ha finished under
a , law yet to be passed.
The procedure of the count is yet to be
settled. It is generally hoped that the count
will be made In n public manner , or at
leaat In a manner which will permit rep
resentative men from all parties to gain
access to the committee room. There are
many details to bo arranged after the com
mission Is fully organized. The six commis
sioners may employ no assistance , and they
must do the clerical work as well as the
actual work of counting tun ballots them
selves. It Is upt expected that the count
will proceed rapidly , for it Is the general
sentiment that the slipshod muthods cm-
ployed In the recount of 1887 must not bo
resorted to. However , the men who have
been behind the demand for a recount are
predicting that the work will ha completed
and the result determined before the legis
lature adjourns.
Bills Tiavo been Introduced In both Iiouso
and sejiato to circumvent the efforts of cer
tain men to prevent the recount by enjoin
ing the clerks of Lancaster anil Douglas
counties from forwarding the ballots. These
bills empower the speaker of the house to
send the sergeant-at-arms after any ballots
that may not be- promptly forthcoming. A
bill haa also been Introduced that Is dc-
nigncd to prevent a delay In the recount
In the event that the parties who have al
ready commenced the actions In Douglas and
Lancaster counties take their cases to the
eupremo court.

Mrs. Frances M. Ford has returned from
her visit to Washington , where her duties
as member of the director of the General
Krdur.itIon of Woman's clubs called her.
With regard to the biennial of 1S9S slio
says : "I shall never cease to regret my
Inability to bring Iho greal gathering of
this federation within the reach of our
Nvbraoka women. It is managed and con
trolled In such a way as to bo a most up
lifting example. While I am so sorry we
did not gut It I feel sure fho board decided
purely upon Ihelr belief In Iho grealest good
lo thu grealeat number.
"On every point save ono all admitted
our Inducements bettor than Denver's , but
this point carried the deciding vote. In the
far west and northwest there are far more
clubs connected with the general federation
than In this , the central west. These clubs ,
by letter am1 otherwise , made strong pleas
to have the biennial held as far west as
possible. Beaten early withdrew from the
race , asking especial consideration for 1900.
This left the contest between Omaha and
Denver.
"Tlieso north-western clubs said that they
would send delegates to Denver but could
not do It to Omaha. In vain I urged that
the Transnilfislsslppl Bxposlllon would make
It possible lo come hero as cheap as ordi
nary rates to Denver , I had no direct au
thority from railroads tn say this , and as for
the Transmlsalesippl Exposition Itself , the
legislature had aa yet made no appropria
tion , and BO It was not as certain as It
might have been. The decision really waa
In favor of the west , and Denver irot It , because -
cause she Is further west.
'During tliu discussion of Omaha Mrs.
lireed. . the vlco president of the association ,
tiisureil Iho board that Omaha had a mag
nificent club and could entertain them
beautifully , so you see our fame reaches oven

WASHINGTON , Feb. 28. The Inauguration
a president Is a ceremony absolutely , dls
tlnctlvcly nnd uniquely American. Hero
Is no despotic seizing by force of arms of the
governing power , no coronation with Unse
accompaniments of emperor and king forcet
upon an unwilling people by the Iron law o
succession or monarchical expediency , but It
contrast the sublime spectacle of a man , on
of the people yesterday , today before hi
peers taking a solemn oath to carry out the !
mandates as expressed In their constitution
and through their representatives , to gov.
orn their country and his for a short term o
years , and then to relinquish his great charge
at their bidding.
Impressive nnd beautiful In Us Inception
though the lapse of years has added to It
magnificence , the grand motlvo underlyln
all of the pomp and ceremony etlll stand
out In all of- the simplicity and with all th
potent meaning that It had In 17S9 , who :
George Washington , the first of the president
of the United States , bowed his head In dec
emotion over .he bible upon which h
pledged himself to keep the union , "So hcli
mo God. "
When Washington assumed the presidency
among other duties ho wns obliged to devise
vise the form and ceromonlal of an Inaugurn
lion. Like the other results of his hand !
work. It has been found good , and has endured
durod with llttlo change , and that only In th
line of expansion , down to this day.
The general was living quietly at his homo
on beautiful Mount Venion , when notified o
his election. Tlio seat of government wa
then In New York. The president-elect mad
the journey to New York on horseback. It
stage coaches , and barges. The countr
has never since witnessed such scenes as at
tended his progrcra ; in the country th
farmers gathered along the roadside to grce
him ; In the towns and cities processions wer
formed to escort him , and his carriage wa
dragged by hand 'by hundreds of enthusiast !
people. The City of Brotherly Lqve , dlstln
gutshed for Its loyalty in those early days
was lavishly decorated , and Washington
mounted on a magnificent white charger , rod
beneath triumphal arches and streamers c
evergreen. On every side was flung to th
breeze the flag now known as "Old Glory ,
but a new sign In the firmament of nation
then. In Ihe Jersey towna young girls scat
tered flowers In his pathway , and cverywher
was the sign of national rejoicing.
WASHINGTON'S FIRST .INAUGURAL.
The first president was Inducted Into hi ;
ofilco In the old federal building In New
York City , which was then the place o
meeting of the now congress. Ho hlmssl
laid down .tho order of exercises. A mill
tary escort waited upon him at his teui
porary stopping place on Cherry street. Thej
wcro all regular United States troops , fo :
the volunteers who had freed .their countr ;
had gone back to their farms and workshop :
and laid aside for a. tlmo the tools of war
The president-elect rode alone In his car
rlago In the line , for there was no retiring
president to bear him company. Specln
committees appointed by congress , just as
the senate docs today , attended him Into
the presence of 'the senate , where the oath
of olllce was administered by Chancellor
Livingston , and the formal announcemcn
was the signal for general rejoicing am
merry-making 'that ' was concluded by a dls
play of fireworks at night.
At the date of Washington's second in
auguratlon the scat'6f government had been
removed to 'Philadelphia ' and tlie 'cere
monies wcro more elaborate In details. A
great coach -drawn by six white horses , Con
voyed the president to the meeting place
of congress on Chestnut street , and Wash
ington himself was attired In the greatest
splendor , oven for those days , In black vel
vet and silver laces and dlamond-studdci
buckles and silken hose , with powdered hair
and cocked hat.
The first great trial of the stability of the
new republic came with the inauguration o
John Adams , and the result was a superb
vindication of the wisdom of Its founders
for It made certain the fact that the grcal
general , who had been the idol of his pecplo
for a term of eight years , could chcerfullj
and willingly surrender the reins of power
Into the hands of another. Adams , like
Washington , was Inaugurated In 1'hlladel
phla , and with similar ceremony.
Then followed another strain upon the
young republican system , for Adams' suc
cessor. Thomas Jefferson , had not been
; lected by the people , but had bcsn chosen
by the house of representatives after a bitter
contest in the flrst exercise of Us constitu
tional power to act In case of a tio.
JEFFERSONIAN SIMPLICITY.
Jefferson , the sage of Montlcello , was a
man of plain tastes. He cared nothing for
Terms and ceremonials , and besides , ' We
times wcro not suited to ostentatious dis
play with so much ugly temper and adverse
political feeling abroad In the land. Again
Ihe seat of government had been moved ,
: hls tlmo to its permanent abode In Washing
ton , and hcrj Jefferson was Inaugurated with
a simplicity much to his liking. With a
very small resident population and removed
from the populous centers , the number of
people that witnessed his assumption of the
presidential olllco In thla day would seem
ridiculously small. Nevertheless the people
of the surrounding country flocked Into the
city , and , although there were no great
crowds along Pennsylvania avenue , evidences
of enthusiasm and hearty greeting to the
presldont-ulect were not wanting. A local
artillery battery fired a salute at daybreak
Hid a company of Alexandria rifleman did
Mr. Jefferson the honor of parading before
ills house.
The' president-elect hnd corns Into town
almost unnoticed nnd alone on honwback all
iha way from his cstalo nl .Montlcello ; not
for lack of proffered escort , but because he
preferred that coura ? . The same simplicity
narked his inauguration. Like Washington ,
10 had no retiring president to escort him
to the capital , but for another reaoon ; Prcal-
lent Adama , In a bitter frame of mliid , had
quitted the city at daybreak. Jcir rson rode
on horseback to the capltol , attended merely
by a number of his party friends In congress
and Borne leading citizens ; with his own
hands ho .liltched his liorso nt tin eastern
entrance nnd made hUi way Into the senate
chamber , now occupied by the supreme
court. Out of the regular order the now
vies president , Mr , Burr , had been provlntiuly
aworn In and seated. Ho surrendered his
chair to Mr. Jefferson , who received the
oath nt the hande of Chief Justice Marshall
and delivered his Inaugural address to the
assembled congress. Throughout the pro
ceedings Mr , Jefferson wore hlo hoots and
splw , but no uniform. An artillery salute
announced the accession to olllco , and the
president concluded liU first day In ofllco by
a levse and popular reception at the white
house , A peculiar feature of Jefferson's in
auguration was trio celebration of the event
In other cities , notably In Philadelphia , where
the display far exceeded that In the capital.
DEMONSTRATION FOR MADISON.
Thorn were signs of coming Inaugurals In
that of President lladlsqn. Ten thousand
peoplo. a great 'crowd for Washington In
those days , gathered on the eastern terrace
of tlio capltol , and the militia forces , as well
33 the United States rep'Jlar troops , formed
the nucleus of the procession , A troop of
cavalry escorted the president-elect from his
homo to the capltol , and after the ceremonies
there were concluded salvos of artillery fire
announced the event , and nine mllltla compa
nies formed a guard of honor In the march
to the white house. He was perhaps the
nrlglnator of the "homo markefagltatlon , for
ho made It a point to wear a uiHt of clothIng -
Ing made entirely of American wool. This
Inauguration was concluded with a reception ,
In which ex-President Jefferson was a promi
nent figure.
It remained for President Monroe to raise
the question a-i to the right of the senate
) r the linuao of representatives to conduct
the inaugural ceremonies a question since
settled In favor of the senate. In a spirit of
ivcrcautlouancEH hu gavn notice several days
In advance that ha Intended to taka the oath !
it ofllco In the hall of the houisv. The senate
it cnce objected to this Infringement on Its
prorofrallve * ? , nd after some wrangling be
tween the M * . branches of congroia a com-
promlso was WTected which resulted in tho-
cerorr.onlrn taking place on n temporary stand
In the open air midway between the two
chnmbersMUUary , regular and mllltla ,
again formWtho 'larger part of the proces-
olon. The Inaugural ball , now one of the
most attractive and popular features of the
corsmon'Ics , had Us birth on this occasion ,
the 8CCH8 .bsUui In UAVla1 hotel. American
eagles hotel 61 1 over Mr. Monroe when ho
took the oath of office , as well as over hU
successor , John Qulncy Adams , nnd were
regarded nil good omens by the propheta cf
these days * , , , , }
Mr. Adams w.l > a chosen by the house of
representatives' , and because the struggle
was protracted 'Until near the 1st of March ,
there was little opportunity to arrange for
a demonstration when he succeeded Mr.
Monroe. Nevertheless , the people turned to
the task with a will , and Pennsylvania
avenue was decorated wllh a lavUhncss un
known before that day.
Andrew Jackson had been recently be
reaved In the death of his wife when ho as
sumed the presidential office , so the cere
monies wcro In a minor key and with as
llttlo display cs was consistent with the
nature of the event. A fcaturn of the In
auguration was a carriage built of the hull
of the frlgfcto Constitution , In which Mr.
Jackson rodo' with Mr. Van Uuren to and
from the capltol. President Jackaon de
livered his Inaugural address to the people
from tha east front of the capltol.
Van Huren's Inauguration was lacking In
distinctive features. There was a good show
of military fotccs. and the usual display of
hunting , nnd a great gathering In Washing
ton of the president's party followers.
WILLIAM HBNRY HARRISON.
Up to the date of the Inauguration of Wil
liam Henry Harrison , bsldci < the United
States regular troops and civilians , only the
mllltln of tlid District of Columbia partici
pated In the processions. On that occasion ,
however , there were many organizations of
the citizen soldiery from the atates In lino.
The ceremonies were drawn out to the ut
most , and political features were prominent.
The log cabin was drawn In line , and the
protective docfrtnc , then victorious , wau
Illustrated In Us workings by looms and
other devices symbolic of American Indus-
trlta nnd labor. The greatest crowd known
In Washington up to that time gathered to
witness the sights , and as General Hiarrlson
rode down tho. avenue on horseback , lib
guard of honor formed from a battalion of
nildlcrs who had served und r him In the
Tlppccanoe campaign , ho had a continuous
ovation. A month later Vlco President Tyler
took the oath of ofllco as pmldcnt at lib
own home In Washington without ceremony ,
In deferencs to the grief-stricken city , which
mourned the death of the preaidcnt.
President Polk had to face bad weather
when he was inaugurated. This dimmed the
display out of dcors , though ho Insbted on
addressing the people from the cc t front
of the capltol. A very succeasful ball at
night redeemed In Mine measure the 2Vil
effects of the weather.
Picsldent Xachary Taylor was obliged to
postpone the ceremonies of his liiauguratlun
for one day , because the 4th of March fell on
Sunday. The celebration on the succeeding
day was all that could bo desired ; there was
a line procession with much military from
other cities , and fully 20,000 persons gath
ered before the capllol to hear his address.
Flllmorc succeeded to the presidential ofilco
through the flejUh of President Taylor , and
'
although ho Jo'ok his oath before congress ,
there was JHtlc other ceremony.
Pierce nnd 'B.uchanan had' eventful Inaugu
rations , thel fortner In a snow storm. The
'
crowds were lar'ge on each occasion.
Lincoln wad .Inaugurated with a degree of
military prcpara'tlon that gave an outward
sign of the disturbed condition of the coun
try. For the first tlmo the soldlens wcro In
line , with a , puf [ > ese beyond that of display.
A large fori5e of'regular troops had been or
dered to Washington , and on every side pre
cautions were taken to prevent an attack
upon the president-elect. Lincoln himself ,
however , showed no signof apprehension.
Ho delivered his Inaugural -address in the
presenceof ri'rast ' throng , his rival at the
polls Stephen A. Douglas standing beside
him and holding his hat. In the evening
Lincoln ! held a public reception at the white
house. Ilia ; second Inauguration also wait
conducted-'iwlth great proiautions andii'wlth ,
m.iuy misgivings' ' " by , 'those In. charge of the
ceremonies , ] . .1r a- .
Johnson's ( Induction , Into ofilco was , neces
sarily conducted nvlth the greatest , caution ,
owing to the excitement resulting from the
assassination of Lincoln. Ho took the oath
In private at his hotel.
GRANT ; RIDES ALONE.
Grant rode to the capltol alone , because
the retiring president was dissatisfied with
the arranceir-ent of carriages. It having been
decided that they should occupy separate
conveyances side by side. The military fea
ture domin.-.ted everything In the parade ,
Including , as It did. many thousands of the
veterans who had followed the general In
his great campaigns. The second Inaugura
tion of President Grant was so bleak and re
pellent , so far as the weather was concerned ,
that It has become a tradition in Washing
ton. Never before bad there been such a
numerous af.&emblagc of militia organiza
tions and picturesque featurca for a parade
liero , but owing to the intense cold and the
bittter blasts of northwest winds , many of
the visiting1 c&i.npanlcs refused to take their
places In the line qnd those who did suffered
terribly , some of the naval cadcU paying
the penalty with their lives.
Hayes' Inauguration was In a mensurable
degree similar to Lincoln's , for It was again
believed to ho necessary to guard his person
from attack. A formidable body of troops
wore on hand for that purpcae. Ho took
the oath of office on the third In private , to
guard ugnlcst a possible Interruption which I
had been threatened , but repeated the cere
mony openly on the stand before the capltol
on the fifth of. March. Garfleld had a brll-
iant inauguration , and a feature of it was
: ho presence on , the floor of the senate when
10 entered the capltol of General Hnncoek ,
.ils unsuccessful rival for the presidency.
Arthur , likes Hayes , twice took the oath
of ofllce. Upon being notified oT the death
of President Garflpld. ho took the oath nt
ils homo In New York. Two days later ho
came to Washington nnd was again sworn
n , this time in the vlco president's room at
; ho capltol , where he read a short Inaugural
iddross to the few persons gathered thero.
There wore no other ceremonies.
Cleveland's fjrst Inaugural gave birth to
the expression "Cleveland weather. " Never
since Washington became the capltol had
there been soon such a perfect day for an
inauguration as that was. The crowd was
the greatest over known hero and Iho procea-
slon likewise was of great length anil mag-
Tlficenco. Harrison , whu succeeded Cleve
land , brought with him thb whole Seven
tieth Indiana regiment , which ho had com
manded during the war , and the procession
was Imposing , though laboring under the
laudlcap of particularly tad weather. The
aln came down In heavy showers , spoiling
; ho decorations , out of doors , and drenching

CHKYENNR , Wyo , , Feb. 23. ( Special. )
The fourth Wyoming stale legislature , which
has just completed the constitutional Icg.a-
lallvo reai'lon of forly days , -\\-aa a very In-
dubtrlous body nnd accomplished consider
able work. During ihc session 161 bills were
Introduced In Iho .hous9 and forty In the
senate ; of those seventy honoo bills and nine
aonato bills were patued by both houses and
went to the governor for approval. In addi
tion to these laws , fifteen resolutions and
memorials were Introduced , eight of which
were adopted. A largo number of the laws
passed are unimportant and refer to methods
of procedure In the courts ; amending and
correcting faulty legislation of previous scs
tlons , and like measures. Some of the moro
Important legislation cnactd Is ns follows :
An act providing for rebuilding the state
general hospital at Rock Springs , and mak
ing available $15,01)0 Insurance money for
thla purpcse. The state hospital wan dc-
ytroyed by flre several months ago , and there
hca bean quite a strong clfort made to pre
vent Its rebuilding on the ground that the
hospital was a useless Institution and that
the cost of maintaining It waa out of pro
portion to the benefits to bo derived.
Chapter x of the new laws provides that
In the future the etat will bear the ex-
penes of transporting Insane persons to the
asylum , the duty to bo performed by the
sheriffs of the various countlee.
Chapter xv Is of Importance to Insurance
companies. H Imposes a tax of 214 per com
upon the annual gross premiums of all
Insurance companies doing business In the
I'lntc. It la expected this law will add
largely to the revenues of the state.
Chapter xxl Is an Innovation In that It pro
vides for tli9 maintenance of the state law
library by donating for Its uao 15,000 acres
of the public lands of the state.
Chapter xxil makes uniform throughout the
slalo Iho methods of paying mileage ex
pensea to state , county nnd precinct of
fleers. It limits mileage lo 10 cents a mil
and provides that the shortest practlcabl
roulcs shall bo traveled.
Chapter Ix Is designed to protect deposit
ors In state banks. It prohibits loans o
moro than one-seventh of the capital stocl
to one person , firm or corporation , nnd no
moro lhan one-tenth when the capital Bloc"
of the bank does not exceed $40,000.
Chapter xvlll opens the fishing season 1
Wyoming on May 1 Instead of Juue 1 , as a
present.
Chapter xxxl provides for the complotlo
of the state penitentiary at Rawllns. One
eighth of a mill is levied for this purpos
In 1S97 and the same amount In 180S. Ther
was considerable opposition to this mcas
uro because the state now has a penitentiary
building at Laramlo , which was donated t
It by the general government when Wyotnlni
was admitted to statehood.
COSTS OF FORECLOSURE.
Chapter xlll provides that the costs am
expenses of foreclosure sales shall in tli
future bo borne out of the proceeds of tin
sale.
Chapter xxxil allows the governor of tin
state to suspend any judicial or state of
ficer from ofllco pending proceedings fo
Impeachment.
Chapter xxxvlll permits school districts
having over 1,000 Inhabitants to Increase
the number of directors from three to six
Chapter xllv provides that sales of state
lands shall be held at the door of the cour
Iiouso of the .county In which they are situ
ated "and that"le-asos for state lands maj
bo executed before a notary public.
Chapter xllv Increases the fees to b
charged by the secretary of state for filing
articles of Incorporation. Heretofore th
charges have been almost nominal and th
amount of capital stock was not taken intc
consideration. Under the new law tin
charges are based upon the amount of capl
Lai stock of the incorporation. It is ex
peeled the state revenues will bo greatly
increased frcm this act.
Chapter xll allows school trustees to bond
school districts for the purpose of building
school houses in amounts not exceeding ;
per cent of the taxable property Ip the dls
trlct.
Chapter xxvlil Is an act regulating the ex-
> cnses of cities of the second class In the
state. The salaries of all ofllclals in sucl
cities are fixed by the law and are materially
reduced from those now paid.
Chapter xxix provides1 for the appolntnien
of oil Inspectors by mayors of cities or boards
of county commissioners. The compensa-
ion is to be $5 a day , to be paid by the
party desiring the services of an Inspector.
Chapter xxvli defines the judicial districts
of the state , which , in the future , will be as
ollows : First , Laramie and Converse conn
les ; second , Albany , Natrona and Fremont ;
bird , Carbon , Swectwater nnd Ulnta ; fourth ,
ohnson , Sheridan , Crook , Wcston nnd Big
lorn.
Chapter xlvli provides for the Issuance to
notaries public in new counties commissions
without charge for the balance of the term
of the original commissions.
SOME OF THE APPROPRIATIONS.
Chapter xxx makes available $18,775.11
hold In the land Income funds for use by the
various state Institutions.
Chapter xxxiv makes an appropriation of
$1,000 to refund money erroneously paid to
thu state by purchasers of state lands.
Chapter xlvl provides for the restoration to
citizenship of a convict after his discharge
from the penitentiary If his conduct warrants
such clemency.
Chapter 1 exempts sugar beet factories
which may be operated In the state from
taxation for a period of ten years.
/ Chapter xllx defines retail liquor dealers
It classes dealers In general merchandise
who sell or give liquors to customers by
bottle or glaea ns retail liquor dealers arid
subjects them to tlio payment of liquor deal
ers' license lies. The act will interfere with
Uio common practice in the state of drug
gists handling liquors , except for medicinal
purposes.
Chapter II constitutes the general appro
prlallon act for providing funds to conduct
the Htato government during the coming two
yearn This act appropriates $120.,500 for
paying salaries nnd contingent expenses ol
thu ctato nnd Judicial "officers ; $55,000 for
maintaining state cliarltablo and penal In
stitutions , and $30,187.92 for various other
stale purpcsesf , making the total appropria
tions under the act $205,687.92 , which la
$18,023.34 less titan was appropriated for Hk9
purposes two years ago.
AWAITING APPROVAL.
The following are among the Important
acts which still re-main In the hands of the
governor awaiting his approval :
Providing for a bounty on predatory wild
animals , It provides that bounties shall bo
paid for wolves and coyotes nnd appropriates
$20,000 to pay the same.
An act amending tto election laws of the
etato. This act changes the syetcm of voting
ing iu Wyoming , making It poMlblo to vote
a straight party ballot by making one cross
upon the ballot Instead of voting for lu-
divlilunla , as required at present.
An act providing for the appointment of
sheep Inapectoru nnd regulating tholr comp -
p ° n aUon and duties. Tlilo Is also an Im
portant measure and will doubtless be ap
proved.
Among the hills Introduced and falling of
passage the most Important was the meas
ure providing for tlio adoption of a revision
of Iho Wyoming slatutes. At the Third
legislative session a revision committee of
three lawyers was appointed to make a re
vision of the laws to bo presented to the
Fourth legislature for adoption as the re
vised statutes of Wyoming , Tills revision
was presented late In Iho session and a hill
Introduce ! ) for Its adoption. Considerable
opposition was manifested to thu adoption
of the revision , mainly because of the late
date at which It was Introduced , thus pro-
vontlng a critical examination of the work
by the members. Clmrgr * were made that
the revision contained many now laws which
bad been taken from the statules of other
elates and Interpolated lu the Wyoming laws ,
Cbargc < s were also made that tha revision
committee had not been harmouloua In Ha
workings and that the revision was prac
tically the work of hut < mo member of the
commllleo. Questions were also raised as
to the legality of the Appointment of two
of the members of the commltlee , they hav
ing been members of Ihe Icglalalurp which
created the committee and the state con
stitution prohibiting members of the legis
lature from filling offices created by them
selves. Thrso various charges were not
very skillfully mot by the friends of thom
m en sum nnd It fallr-d of passage and the
revision , upon which the stnto had spent
upward of $5,000 , was cust fliilde. The flght
upon this measure was made a party ques
tion , all of the democrats opposing the
adoption of the revision , In which they were
supporlcd by five republican members of
the house , Ihe combined forces killing Iho
bill.
bill.In
In Iho entire session there was very llttlo
political discussion. In the senate Senator
Plchftt , the dctuocrallc representative from
Big Horn county , was unseated lo make n
plnco for A. L. Colcmnn , republican , upon
purely technical grounds. In this eoitnst
Senator McGlll republican , voted with the
democrats , and Senator Callaway , democrat ,
with the republicans.

CHEYENNE. Wyo. , Feb. 2S. ( Special. )
Prof. W. S. Ward , director of the mining
bureau of the Denver & Gulf railway system ,
has returned from n week's Inspection of the
Hartvllle mining district lu northern Lara
mlo county. The Inspection was made at
the Instance of the management of the Den
ver & Gulf railroad , which desires authori
tative Information of mining districts trib
utary to Its line of road. Frof. Ward sahl
today In reference to the district :
"I am much gratified at the general min
eral outlook at Hartvllle. There Is an Immense -
monso amount of splendid Iron ore In the
dlotrlct and a great deal of copper ore. The
formation Is curious In thai the pockets of
rich copper ore have a base or setting of
great Iron ore deposits. At Iho present time .
mining Is carried on In a rather crude way. 1
Shlpine'iils ' of Iron ore are being made , the
ere being taken from the surface , nnd Is
merely shoveled up Into Ihu wagons and
hauled to the cars. As the ere has to bo
hauled by wagon nearly sixteen miles and
then transported hy rail over 200 miles , It
pan readily be scon that. It Is of goo.l value
nnd that the cost of mining Is very low In
order to make a profit after all this ex
pense. " As to general mining conditions In
Wyoming. Prof. Ward said : "I am sur
prised at the slowness In Wyoming In min
eral development. If Wyoming wcro pros
pected with one-fourth the zeal that Is
shown In Colorado It would soon become one
of the leading mining stales of Ihe wesl. "
The pocplo along the line of the Denver
& Gulf line In Wyoming are greatly pleased
nnd gratified at the departure of the Gulf
management In establishing a mining bu
reau. The Inspection by an expert on be
half of the company is the flrst stibstanllal
encouragement the owners of mining prop
erty In the state have had from any line
of railroad and the innovation is looked
upon ns an Important step toward the de
velopment of the country's mineral re
sources.
I ml In ii Finds it Vein of Coiil.
LANDER , Wyo. , Feb. 28. ( Special. ) A
