BIG HORN, WYOMING, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 27, 1884. A BRILLIANT FUTURE. United Mat** Senator Morgan Hpeaka lit Enthnsla*tlr Terms or Wyoming’s Bright llnp*« In the Cun tlguous future. (Übeyenn* Lender.) The *u)»-commlttee of tht senatorial committee on Indian affair* arrived in this city on Sunday morning from Omaha, and remained until evening, when they took the train for Ogden. The committee consisted of Senator John T. Morgan, of Alalsima, Henry L. Dawea, of MAXsachusvttx, and An gus Cameron, of Wisconsin, and are on their way to California to investigate some matters relating to the Indian tri!*eo in the southern portion of the state. The commit too were accompa nied by JamtM Christie and brother. Henry L. l*aww, Jr„ Mrs. Whittaker and Mrs. Senator Hawes, On their arrival the party were mot by some personal friends whose guestw they become. The gentlemen were en tertained at the club, and after lunch the entire party was driven alamt town and out to Fort Uussrll. Like the ma jority of eastern visitors, they were sur prised at the tine appearance the city presented. After their return from the fort the |»arty took the evening train west. A reporter of the Ixvider met Senator Morgan and at once proceeded to In terview him. This was not a dithcult task, for the senator was willing to talk. He nt once Iwgun “We are going to ('allfornia to inves tigate some matters pertaining to the Indians of that state, but as I nm on another eommittis* also, I am obtaining information and statistics relating to steel and iron, and I have Ixwn very successful here to-day I assure you. You know that It is Intended to build a navy for the J’aciOc coast some day, and I am trying to get some definite in formation as to the best locality In which to obtain the iron and stefd necessary for their construction and for the manufaeture of cannon and other implements of war. 1 think that Wyoming will Ist the place from which they will Im obtairnxl. When 1 was In Washington Mr. Post called my atten tion to the capacity of Wyoming to Jill the want, and I will look up the mat ter. I don't mean to say that 1 have made a personal invi'sligation of the rvsournw of the territory in this s|>ect, l>ut I have statistics and other data sunicient to lay the whole matt it undrrstandlngly Wore the senate, and 1 know that the information which has been furnished me can Im, rrlhsl upon. Your citizens have IMwn very kind to me in this matter, and I have quite a giswl many diMruments about the re sources of the territory. In fact, I got just what I wanted. ••You have an immense supply of coal, iron and petroleum,** continual the senator, “and I can’t understand why more active measures are not taken to develop them. The time is not far distant when the entire Pacific coast will look to this territory for their supply. This territory is toum! to become a second Pennsylvania. All it needs is development, and that is on ly a question of time. 1 was surpris'd at the extent and value of the mineral resources which this terribuy |m>s sesHcs. Why, it Is one of the richest in this respect of any of this nation." Senator Morgan paused here for a moment, and then continuing sai make observations while on this trip and let him know when 1 found a good plat* for him. As I said, 1 have found it, and I think he will take my advice and come out here and settle. 1 think this is the Iswt city of its size that I have seen in the west, and I Wieve that it has a great future iieforc it" “When were you in New York?" asketi the reporter. “Oh, you want something about poli tics, do you Weil, 1 left there about three weeks ago, and I believe that Cleveland Is V» l>e eh«cte- Ing well managed. The party is work ing quietly but energetically. They do not intend to let the republicans win this time, and 1 believe we are going U> l>eat them, as we did in *76. Tammany must now turn in and work faithfully and energetically for the ticket, and New York city will give a large major ity for Cleveland next November. Be side* there is a heavy independent vote to I* cast for him, which the republi cans don’t say much about. There will lie a change in the government and the republicans will have to succumb. It will be a hard fight, hut the democrats will win -I am confident of it.** .Senator Morgan is tall ami portly, with gray hair and mustache. Hr is pleasant and social, and is a typical southern gentleman. Hr is a recog nized leader of the drmors. Machiiies ami electric light ap|*arutUH are nil con structed in the Timni* engineering shops.

They were the first and at present the lust to In troduce the type-setting inachimw, an innovation which was bitterly rcsenteil by the ••comps," who begun playing dirty tricks with the “set-up'* mutter. At that period copies of the Times once or twice commanded extraordina ry prices, collectors of enriosit ies Iw’lng eager to pun-hnso them when they chuncHl to contain some obscenity. On other days, from some break-down in the arrangement*, the early “newspaper trains"starling from London soon after 5 u. in., would Im* missed, and the Time* would have to charter sp*M’iuls at a cost of from Viu to £OO each.

Herald.] We have received a first copy of Tiik Big Horn Sentinel. It is a seven column paper with a most cnditable typographi. quent discourse in this town Monday night, and left on the coach Tuesday for Sheridan. At an early d» it is in-1 tonded by the bishop to hav(» a clergy man of this denomination in this county, and as soon as the churvh at Buffalo is constructed it will be nmse crated and a minister l«e appointol to take charg»*. During his short stay in Big Horn. Bhhop Spalding visited the public school, administered the sacrament to four memtars of his flock and baptized two children. He seemed pleased u ith the country, and expressta himsrlt as taing surprised at the number of set tler# in this part of tho county, which was looked upon in Colorado as little tatter than “hick woods." We do not rememtar of hating heard the bishop express himself relative to the inhospi tality of the clergy of other denomina tions in this part of the rounty, but to us, although not hailing directly from the effete east, it seemt'd that a greater lack of courtcey would not have Iwen extended townnl a vencmble bishop and a man of high standing by the bra mins of Hindustan. We oumeh pro* fess no leaning toward any particular creed or tenet, and if the same lark of courtt*) were exhibited by the breth ren" to a Methodist, Baptist, Homan Catholic, or Presbyterian minister, we should indulge in remarks of a like nature. The reaper* usually mvorded u man of his doth by others of all de nominations was sadly lacking, ami that's the case in a nutshell. A New Huurve WeaUh.
