Sunday Fire.
Sunday about noon fire destroy
ed the Taxidermy building on the
South side belonging to Fred W.
Rising. The building was occupied
by Mr. H. H. Mowray, who con
by Mr. H. H. Mowray, who con
ducted a second-hand store. His
loss is total having no insurance,
and will aggregate alxmt $1,200.
The rear of the building was occu
pied by Jas. Elliott and family as
living rooms. They lost all their
household goods and personal
effects, escaping with only the
clothing upon their backs. The
volunteer fire department respond
ed promptly, but the fire was al
most beyond control before it was
discovered. However, the depart
ment saved the adjoining building
which is a frame livery stable be
longing to Mr. Jas. Elliott. \\ e
are informed that Mr. Rising has
$500 insurance on his building.
He is in Jackson's Hole with a
hunting party and probably does
not yet know of his loss, which
will lie about $(100 as the insurance
is a ilttle less than half the value
of the building.
The fire is supposed to have
originated through some carelesk
person th rowing down a match or
cigarette while amusing themselves
1 watching a tame bear, which was
: chained by the side of the build
! ing. This seems to he the most
probable theory as the fire bioke
! out under the living apartments of
Mr. Elliott. The wind was blou
ing very strong from the south or
it would have taken the l'' er >
stable in spite of all that could
have been done.

Burton L. French Opens Campaign.
Hon. Burton I.. French opened
the campaign in Fremont county
last . Monday . ev t ei,illK - The atte,ul -
ance was not large
{act that . su ffi c i ent
owing to the
time was not
allowed for advertising. Those
who were present speak in highest
praise of Mr. French's talk. He
is one of the ablest speakers in the
state and puts his arguments before
the people in an impressive and
honest way that interests the hearer
from the beginning to the end.
Mr - French's speech brouhgt the
Cleveland times before the aud
ience in an easy way that renewed
the picture of men out of emnloy
ment, through the free trade poilcy
jof the Democraitc party.
How!
How could our government have
paid $50,000,000 out of its current
cash for the Panama Canal if it had
not been for tli'e revenue producing
power of the Dingier Protective
Tariff?
How would we have been able
to donate $5,000,000 to the Louis
iana Purchase Exposition if it had
not been for the revenue producing
of the Dingley Protective Tariff?
How could we add nearly $3,
400,000 more to the pensions we
pay the brave defenders of our
Union and our country this fiscal
year without the increased revenue
which the Dingley Protective
Tariff is affording us?
How could we give out contract
after contract for the battleships
we need to protect our commerce if
we were not sure that the Dingley
Protective Tariff can be relied on
for the money to protect tbose con
tracts as they mature?
How could our Government have
undertaken, as it has, the vast
schemes of Southwestern irrigation,
by which millions of waste acres
will be made productive, unless it
was backed by ihe cash productive
power of the Dingley Protective
Tariff?
How could we meet the properly
increased expense of conducting
our national business without sel
ling bonds (as in Democratic days)
if we abolished or seriously muti
lated the Dingley Protective Tar
iff?
How could our 81,000,000 peo
ple pay for their yearly per capita
consumption of 6.33 bushels of
wheat and wheat flour (against 3.95
bushels per capita by 62,000,000
people in 1890) if they were not
earning larger wages under the
Dingley Protective Tariff?
How could we have spent $360,
000. 000 on our Philippines invest
ment without adding more than
$480,00,000 to our interest-bearing
debt unless our people had been
able to so easily pay the now can
celled war tax by their prosperity
under the Dingley Protective Tar
iff?
How could our national financial
position have been bettered, as it
has, by $1,061,000,000 since July
1, 1897, compared with the Demo
cratic fiscal year, July 1, 1893, to
July 1, 1897, had it not been for
the revenue producing" and busi
ness energizing influence of the
Dingley Protective Tariff?
How could we protect our wage
earners against the pauper-paid
labor of Europe and Asia without
the protecting power of the Ding
ley Protective Tariff?
How can we in November next
except by voting for Roosevelt and
Fairbanks and the entire Republi
ticket in every city, town, and!
ham let Jin our country protect the'
Dingley Protective Tariff, which is
so comp l e telv protecting us?
