The promise of a cool evening for the ad
journed mooting of the Council Bluffs Trans-
inlsfilfslppl exposition association was not
roalbeil lat t night , but the torrid heat did
not deter enough men from being present
to comfoitabl ) lilt the seats , The commit
tee of five , consisting of Judcon , Sawyer ,
James , Bender and Cleaver , was not ready
with Its report when tlm meeting was called
to order , und while waiting for the reporl
to be completed some one suggested thai
lion , John Allies , who has just leturnctl
from the Nashville exposition , might give
the gathering a little talk on that big show
and expositions In general , Mr. Antes Is nl-
wnjH leady for a speech , but he seemed tc
fall to grasp the Intent and object of the
courtef-y that was extended him. Hu pro
ceeded to give the meeting a geneial roast
of most generous proportions , and strongly
advised against Council 11 hi IT 3 taking any
putt In thu big show across the river. The
members present funned themwlvcs vigor
ously and took the roasting good-naturedly.
The work of organization did not proceed
any further than the adoption of the con
stitution and bj-lnus It was read as a
whole and then debated and adopted by
sections , with numerous changes and amend
ments.
Thu constitution provides that the of
ficers of the association shall consist of a
pirbldcnt , vlt.e president , wecrctary , treas
urer and an executive committee of flftj
members who shall be elected by ballot aiu
are to serve during the exposition. Tht
regular meetings of the association shall be
held on the tlrst and third Thursday even

provides for the appointment of standing

The committee of live had prepared a Us

mlttee and presented It , but although It wai
a list of rcprtbcutatlve citizens It did no
meet the approval of the meeting. Objec
tlons woie made and earnestly urged agalns

CASPER , Wyo. , July 29. ( Special. ) R.
M. Dcvlne's story of the fight with the
Smith gang remains about as published In
The Bee. Owing to the fact that the bound.
ary line between Johnson and Natrona coun
ties has never been surveyed , the Natroua
county commissioners sent County Surveyor
Bradley to the Hole-ln-the-Wall country to
make a survey. Surveyor Bradley returned
to Casper yesterday. He finds that the
shooting ot Bob Smith occurred about two
inilee north of the Natrona county line In
Johnson county. The reports being circu
lated that armed men are waiting for the
roundup ore false. Surveyor Bradlo } says
he found most ot the people In that section
making hay and giving the matter little erne
no attention ,
Bob Smith was shot about 3 o'clock one day
and lived until 9 o'clock the next. Smith
told the men who were with him that he
started the fight nnd got the vvort't of It ,
and urged them not to take up the fight ,
but let It drop.
Sheriff Sproul of Johnson county told the
surveying party that the best citizens of
Johnson county looked on the affair as a
private quarrsl , and as the man who com
menced the fight had got the worst of It
ho would not be surprised If the matter was
never brought Into court. At the time
Smith was shot everybody In the roundup
was shooting and no one knows positively
who shot Smith. Prom Smith's clothes It
seems that a large bullet and o small bullet
entered his body.
The roundup Is oil In Casper and is
thinking of going back In a few days. There
Is a crowd of reckless men living In the
Hole-ln-the-Wnll section and the good citi
zens , against their will , have to stand In
with them. The roundup should take In
enough men to overawe the thieves , so that
there would be no hope for the thieves to
win In the fight. If till * were done there.
Is no reason why the roundup should not
go ahead with Its work. Bob Taylor , the
rustler taken prisoner by the roundup , Is
still In jail here , hilt will be- turned loose ,
as this county has no jurisdiction In tlio
matter. Sheriff Parton Is holding htm ,
thinking Johnson county may want him ,
but It Is not probable , as apparently John
son county Is going to let the matter drop.
Hard characters from all over the country
are flocking Into the Holciin-the-Wall coun
try , thinking that' It Is a good country to
make an easy living In , and that they can
steal and plunder and not get caught. People
ple arc getting very tired of this gang and
the best Interests of the' country demand
that it be run out. During the last ten
dajs sK eastern men jhavq come In here
to look at oil properties , and representa
tives of this gang kept them from going
Into the oil fields The day Is not far dis
tant when everybody will unite with the
cattlemen and exterminate the thieves.

will bo nothing to prevent a icpetltlon o
the roundup this spring. It would b : ini
poaslble for the cattlemen to keep theli
stock , some of It , from drifting during tin
winter storms onto the reservation , or , worai
jet , there would be nothing to prevent thi
Indiand from driving the cattle across thi
line into their possessions nnd then holdin ;
them for ransom. On the other hand , thi
Indians say that each year their range 01
the reservation Is eaten by the stray cattli
from across the line. U Is a question o
great Interest to the stockmen.

was the driving power ot all commercial

The rum was bartered to great advantage
for negroes. The negroes were carried tc
and told at a large profit nt the. West In
dies , and Its distillation In Newport nnd
Boston started afresh the round of New
England money-making. Sometimes trade
was so brisk that the market was stripped

In the year 1752 Isaac Precnnn wanted a
cargo of rum tor the African trade. He renl
to Newport , where were then thirty gr al
rum distilleries In full blast. His corrc'

heads of rum for cash. We have been lately

Their attitude Is a specific threat to tampci

for the clothes. You may be ruining
them.
