The palintiff savs that ‘more misery has been crowded into his life during that short period than all his former years. Assessment affidavits in large numbers are being filed in the office of the county clerk by the Ohio.: Midwest and various other large oil companies who are protecting their interests in lands in various oil fields prior to making application for pat- ent on the property. On a number of the claims involved the companies have completed the improvement work required under the old Pickett Placer mining laws which was follow- ed as local custom by all operators in this vicinity. It is understood that the anplica- tion for patent on these lands will be made immediately. by the compa. nies who have proved up off-setting the necessity of having them come under the jurisdiction of the pending government leasing bill. SPORTSMEN OF STATE INTERESTED IN COURT Wyoming sportsmen who have chafed under restrictions imposed by | the federal migratory bird law, which | conflicts with the Wyoming game laws in regard to the seasons during which migratory fowl may be shot are interested in the announcement | that the supreme court of the United | States in a decision handed down at| Washington in effect declares the! federal law invalid. The supreme | court’s action consisted in the dis-! missal on the government’s motion, of | an appeal from a decision of an Ar- kansas federal court holding the mir- ratory bird law to be unconstitutional. | The federal law was passed in 1913} and was the first attemot of the na- tional government to prescribe “closed seasons” for wild birds which habitu- allv mierate from state to state, The Wyoming legisInture of 1917, desiring to eliminate the conflict be- tween the state and national game laws, embodied in the game bill a pro- vision making the state “closed sea- sons” for migratory birds conform to the federal seasons. The game bill, however, failed of passage. a In paving’ their streets the Rus- sians use bricks made of combination of coal-dust, treacle and resin. ages Commercial travelers are required to take out a license. costing twenty-five dollars a month. ace St See In 1918 Minnesota produced a corn crop of 108,000,000 bushels, the lary | est in her history. in Sweder | 919 AMERICA ‘WON THE WAR? BUT ALLIES WERE THERE, TOO NO (PPOSITION i corns Me AM TO SPLIT FROM By RAY HIGGINS (Tribune Special Correspondent) DENVER, Colo., Jan. 16.—‘Did America win the war? amit CASPER DAILY, TRIBUNE Yes—but France and England were in the habit of going out. and winning it twice a week.” Such was the frank statement made bv Irvin S. Cobb, war correspondent and author of inter- » national fame, who was with the first Yankee troops that went er the top, and who lectured in Denver this week. “As a nation we have three vices! —wWilliam Jennings Bryan, Henry Ford and Boastfulness. I would not have given the life of any one of the fifty-thousand American bovs, who lie in the fields of France for | all the milk-son pacifists, who would have our nation in the defenseless condition of a flabby oyster without a shell.

After Amer- ica had been in the war 50 months and 3 davs. and with all the genius of General Pershing, we were able to) move onlv 40.000 men who were par- tially equipped with French rifles and uniforms—40,000 troops in France looks like a grand-iurv going out to, lunch”—and Mr. Cobb, the great humorist. did not mean this for a| joke. “At this time we didn’t have a single American tank on French soil and only four airnlanes, two of | | which were only good for drilling} wells, because they never got off the eround. But when America did get | started with her 2,110,000 Yankees, which was only a sample of what} | |she could produce, then Germany knew that the game was finished. It, was America that turned the tide, the finest boys in the world, whose | | gallantry and bravery we cannot do; too much honor to.” Cobb told real stories; about your Sammy, our Sammies, that brot tears | to the eyes and resolutions to the | mind that no sacrifice by us is too}! great for our warriors. When the! transport Tuscania was struck and sunk by a Hun torpedo, Cobb was several hundred yards from the’ stricken vessel, on her sister ship the Baltic. Separated from their comrades bv only a few feet, yet un- | able to helo them, because it is a for six lone weary miles, these lads had reeled thru an inferno that would put ,Dante’s to shame.

The blue-| gray wave of German soldiers ad- | vancine in close formation rolled to- ward the trenches like a wave, only fo be shattered by our bovs. Five times this wave was broken and there lay before our trenches dead Germans piled 12 feet high. 1, “When I think of the French, and Belgium girls enslaved by Ger- | man beasts. when I think of the Lusi- | tania and the helpless innocent moth- | ers and babes who were murdered, when I think of the Edith Cavell into wiioee body the Germans nile of dead Germans was longer and Ha!

They turned toward the Stars and Stripes—our flag for which they were giving their lives, and saluted, then with a smile on their face and a sone on their lips “Boys Where Do We Go From Here,” vassed on to a kingdom of Eternal Peace and Love. There are heroes on land as well as on sea. A supply truck, on the way to the front trenches, encounter- ed a heavy artillery fire and was struck by a shrapnel. A wounded corporal pluckily made his way back to the supply base to get aid for his injured comrades. Cobb accompanied the ambulance to the unhappy scene where the wounds of five boys were treated. Several hours after their | return to the base Cobb saw outlined against the setting sun two wavering. staggering, tottering khaki clad figures, crimson from head to foot with their own blood.
