As revealed by the above, the fact of the whole matter is that Mr. Stew- art is‘a floater, playing the role of a sarpet-bagger, and in his attempts to induce the people of this State to honor him with one of the most lucra- tive positions in this State, he is a base pretender, and entitled to no consideration whatever. Mr. Stewart is ir. Wyoming alone, while his family continues to main- tain residence at 1321 Clayton street, Denver,- Colo., and if his family or any member of it, have set foot on Casper, Natrona County, Wyoming, or even Wyoming soil, recently, it was solely for the purpose of a visit, and not for a single day has this resi- dence in Denver been discontinued for the purpose of establishing a resi- dence in Wyoming: If Mr. Stewart is in fact a citizen of Wyoming, as he claims, why did be pay poll tax in Denver, Colorado, during the years of 1917 and file his 1918 schedule? If he is in fact a resident of Wo- ming, why did he c! the exemp:- tion.of $200 by reason of being the head of a family residing in Denver, Colorado? There are many other and more important reasons why Mr. Stewart should not be elected to the office of State Auditor, and these we will enumerate later on.
