IE A iv Hitt ot Wik tears ' by Enviable Record. Established Mrs. L. C. Harsenbarger; Can- didate for State Superin- tendent of Schools In every new State there are al- ways some persons who devote their whole, ‘time and energy to bringing into development and” productiveness of wealth the undeveloped resources: Many times these pioneers, in the making of a great State, go unrecog- nized, unhonpred and unsung, while in truth they should be* the -most honored Ones in that State. ~ = ~** Wyoming~has many pioneers who haye labored ‘hard” and faithfully, spent their time and their money lavishly, and haye builded the great fabric of /our commoriwealth careful- ly and with due regard to the making of it a fit place for the latter day comers tovlive, dé business and make money. = °° <2 Among these pioneers, not one has labored more conscientiously, has given more freely of money and abil- ity, has always had the best interests of the State and of the people living in it and yet to live init, than has Mrs. Lenore C. Harnsberger of Lan- der, candidate for the Republican nomination for Superintendent of Public Instruction of Wyoming. That she is responsible for the de- velopment of the ofi industry 6n the Indian reservation in Fremont County cannot be gainsaid’ by &nyone.

She was oné of the speakers last February before the Public Lands Committee of Congress, in reference to the oil ‘leasing -bill, and”‘it was the tommon thot that hers was ‘the most effective talk made there. This is a great tribute for there were many high grade lawyers and business men who addressed ‘that comniittee. A correct earmark of this remark- able woman came out during her talk. Something was then said about her having a son in France, when a member of the committee asked her if she had a boy in the war, quick as a flash she squared around to her questioner) and said: ‘Yes, and 1 wouldn’t own him if he wasn’t.’? It was a true picture of this woman. She is an American of the truest type—the type that’ made recruiting easy—the type that will ' back’ the Germans’ to;Berlin in defeat and dis- |; aster. _ DOCTOR WHO ATTENDED McKINLEY HAS TYPHOID SAN JUAN, Porto Rico, Aug. 1.— Major Edward W. Lee of the Medi- cal Reserve Corps, who was one of the physicians called to attend William McKinley, when the president was shot at Buffalo, -has been seriously ill with typhoid fever, ‘He'is‘attached to the base hospital. aj Major, ‘Lee~came to Porto Rico about three motiths ago with the first group of feserve officers assigned to the hospital. Prior to entering the reserve corps, he had been for years a surgeon in New’ York ’City. © The fact that he is the’ ‘only one of the officers coming from the North who has beer attacked by’ t: hoid' is‘ re- garded: as ‘interesting froma medical viewpoint, for the:reason that he was the only one of these ‘officers who did not. take the typhoid vaccination. It has been a popular theory among medical men that for persons over 45 or 50° years of ‘age,’ vaccination was not necessary, as the likelihood of their contratting the disease was very slight. . Major Lee is a man’ or perhaps 55 yelirs. ~ ie SOUTHERN COLONY IS jline opposite Mulhausen, several miles’ inside the border of the Ger- man empire. : * ‘LOAF OF BREAD LOMMON TRADE LONDON, Aug othe tron Cross has been so cheapened in four years ‘of war that German soldiers x, long- er prize the decoration as - tion, and are willing to part wit for ‘a good ration of bread, on being captured: .
