It is said “the rolling stone gathers no moss,” but’ reports say that some accumulated about the, “rolling stone” intermittently in the front office at the capitol. The campaign managers of) Frank L, Houx, candidate for governor, al- lege that he is qualified for the high office to which ‘he aspires by reason of his great and successful business. experience. Let us see, what has that business experience’ been?~ The people of ‘Wyomitg are enti- - tled to know what qualifications he . has for the business of the state and moss has Let us inquire,’ and let Mr. Houx answer. oe & What business experience did he that state?

Democratic press of the statc under the baneful influence an¢ coaching of the office holding demo cratic campaign managers in Chey enne, appears to be much distressed lover the fact that General Pershing. is Senator Warren’s son-in- -law, 7d" viser and tonfidential friend. If the Democratic press was no! servile, and if the managers were no} bigoted - partisan politicians, the; would be proud of the fact that Gen eral Pershing is so closely related tc the senatorial leader from Wyoming | } |and also proud of the fact that Gen eral Pershing’s home is in this state he having established it at Cheyennc ‘a number of years ago, because of the very relationship which really dis trésses the democratic office holding gang: ‘Warren is for Pershing, and Persh. ing is for Warren. * Both are in service doing their ut- most to ‘win the war now. ‘2 Both are in hearty accord with the *|American* war program, and both manity and for victory; and wi | them ‘the people, too, stand. The Prussian Kaiser, every Hur commander, and every enemy of free government would rejoice over the defeat of Pershing and his splendid defeat of either is not possible thir year. nan Mice has SSS IN GERMANY’S OWN COIN In ‘the Franco-Prussian war, when ‘the Germans had surrounded a great French’ army at Sedan and Franc¢ ‘asked for an armistice, Bismarck re- tb he left that portion of the country:- American army in the field; but the’ : sitory flight through Montana, par- }ticularly while in business in Dead ning except Sunday, and worse still, so far as the boys personally are concerned, they are taking jobs. that demand no skill and. offer no future. It happens that ‘unskilled labor.at. present is in such demand that it ob- tains pay out of proportion to the jservice rendered, as compared with | skilled labor, Boys get big wages for} carrying water, handling tools, per- forming office chores and other triv- ial work, ‘demanding little strength, intelligence, knowledge or skill. This situation, of course, is tran- sient. Sooner or later those boys will now take to be their good fortune. the situation has béen made by the United States Employment Service, through the Boys’ Working Reserve. A great deal, however, remains to be done. The primary responsibility rests with the parents, This, of all times, is the time when every boy who can possibly be kept in school should stay there, because education is going to be more neces- sary and valuable hereafter than ever: before. If a boy is allowed to leave school, the parents should see that he is not fooled by easy-money jobs, but}. ‘s steered into an occupation giving him a chance for growth and for pros- perity hereafter. In case of doubt, it is well to consult the nearest Fed- 2ral employment~bureau. — sen Reo | QUALIFICATIONS AND LACK THEREOF If the life, character, business abil- ity and training of Robert D. Carey do not make him stand head and shoulders above his opponent, Frank L. Houx, when considered upon the »asis of these same elements, in con- sidering the two men as to their qualifications for governor, then we are in the midst of a campaign which is not to be decided upon the merits of the candidates. No personal charges are made against the Democratic candidate for governor, but any one who feels in- terested as to the qualifications thru business training of that individual are respectfully invited ‘to inquire of the older resdents of Park county who |. were contemporaries with Aim, before And watch the’ vote that the two |. candidates receive where they are ‘est known, on election day.

The best méans of assuring it is to deprive France of her army.” That same policy is far more ap- plicable today than it was in 1870. At that time Germany was not obliged to. annihilate her enemy’s army in order to re-establish peace, because Germany herself was the real aggres- sor, and France would have submit- ted to an honorable peace. Now, we know that there is absolutely no way of .insuring peace to ourselves’ and the world’ except annihilating Ger- man military power. We, therefore, do Germany the honor of adopting . Bismarck’s for- mula. . We find that. his own words fit the present situation better than, any we could devise ourselves.

Congress, Shia! Greatest of - Non-Partisan Newspapers with Scathing Cniticism of Demo Leadership , In a letter in which the -headlines-say, “Senator Kendrick ex- plains why Osborne should be elected.” but in which the name.of Dr. Osborne is not so much as mentioned, the senator rests his case for {the success of the Democratic ‘national ticket on the sole ground of partianship, in the face of the fact that he wes his own-election to the independent voters of Wyoming, and makes no secret of the fact that he himself has not always voted the Democratic ticket. So far from attacking the loyalty of Senator Warren and Congressman Mondell to the nation in this war crisis, he attempts to.explain away their support of all of the government's war measures by saying, ‘ ‘and all good Americans do this regardless of political affiliations. A conclusive answer to this partisan issue raidesd e Senator Kendrick is made editorially by the stalwart and independent North Amerf€an in its issue of October 15th, which says: “National welfare mxeatly demands the, elecfies of a Republi- can house of at Washington, in order that there may be an end to the anpatrotic and inefficient control of legislation by Southern Democrats. “~~ “We state this conclusion withott any partisan or sectional feel- ‘ing, but with regard wholly to the imterests of the country.
