FRIDAY, OCT. 3, 1919 Springs, one of the wonders of the mountains; the medicinal properties, of which he had heard extravagantly lauded by the trappers. After a toi!- some search, he found it at the foot of a sand-bluff, a little to the east of the Wind River mountains; where it exuded in a small stream of the color and consistency of tar. The man im- mediately hastened to collect a quan- tity of it to use as an ointment for the galled backs of their horses, and as a balsam for their own pains and! aches. From the description given of it, it is evidently the bituminous oil, called petreleum or naphtha, which forms a principal ingredient in the potent medicine called British OiL It is found in various parts of Eus rope and Asia, in several of the West India Islands, and in some places of the United States. In the state of New York, it is called Seneca Oil, from being found near the Seneca stly the “Great Tar Spring” is the oil spring close to the Murphy well, in the Dallas field, near Lan- der. The discoverer bears the same re- lation to the developer as does the po- litical agitator to the statesman. Without the agitator the statesman’s occupation, like Othello’s, would be gone. A discoverer is rarely a de- veloper, but the latter could not thrive were it not for the former. The discoverer is a dreamer, hence has vision and imagination; the de- veloper is possessed of a practical constructive mind—hence has judg- ment. The former, like the agitator, assembles the materials, while the latter, like the statesman, erects the finished structure. The prospector blazes the trail. The developer con- structs the finished highway. oming is indebted to both for new industry. Since 1912 the ac tivities of the oil developer have ad- ded tens of thousands to the popula. tion of our state, and increased its taxable property by tens of millions of dollars. In 1912, the valuation of property in the state for taxation was 185 millions of dollars. This year it is 375 millions. The increase in our population in seven years can only be approximated. But 50,000 would be a conservative estimate. In 1912 Casper had less than 3,000. It now has over 12,000 inhabitants. In 1889, Casper’s population did not ex- ceed 300. Bessemer’s, otherwise the “Goose Egg’ ranch, was not more than 50. In the contest for the coun- ty seat, Casper cast about 500 votes; Bessemer 739. With apologies to Poet Chapman and banker Head “That's HOW the West Begins.” Thirty years ago the published re- port of a Casper bank showed de- posits—$6,414.49, totals—$7,391.13. In April, 1912, that bank, under a different name, had deposits $564,- 610.59. June 30, 1919, its deposits were $3,063,119.50. April, 19 total bank deposits in Casper were $1,662,000. September,,.1919, they totaled $9,346,000. April, 1912, the deposits in the Cheyenne banks ag- gregated $4,817. 70. In June, 1919, they had increased to $15,594,- 101. T have been furnished the follow- ing by an official of one of the rail- roads running thru Casper: “I have yours of the 11th relative to paper you have been asked to pre- pare, to be read before the Bankers’ convention, which assembles at Chey- enne this week, with regard to oil development in Wyoming. .

Shoyld there be further amend- ments, either directly by the method provided in Article V. of the Con- stitution, or indirectly by the adop- tion of ArticleX, and XI. of the Coy: nant providing for a League of Na- tions? It is the opinion of thoughtful stu- dents, and profound statesmen that} some of the amendments have wea ened our dual form of government and unduly strengthened the N. fount} Go chment upon -jof Nations, | ernment w | Columbia, | the y of Washington. The League of Nations would for many purposes, among them the power to d war, transfer the s of govern- which by the org: As far back as the first winter of the war, the Red Cross sent to Serbis | a sanitary comiission that effective ly checked the rge of typhus, but after the United utes entered the conflict, the Red Cross was able, in August, 1917, to send a full commis ston that carried on extensive reliet operations among the suffering ref. ugees of the tortured nation. Hospt- tals were established, the refugees fed, clothed and given medical attention, the army supplied with much ‘needed dental treatment, farm machine: seeds provided to help the deem their land to productivity, not least, measures undertaken for the succor of the children, The terrible condition into which these helpless vic- tims of the war had fallen is well portrayed by this photograph of a little Serbian girl wearing the rags and expression of hopeless dismay that were all she possessed when the ted Cross came. . WOULD RATHER SMELL OL THAN POSIES, MILLER SAYS J .W. Miller, prominent in Moose activities here, is now in Los Ange- les, where he is. making the Movse Club at 111 Wést Third street, Lis headquarters. Altho Los Angeles | has plenty of flowers and palm tre it does not impress Mr. Miller as be- ing any better than Casper, he writes to The Tribune. “I would just as soon have a little Sage brush and the smell of oil, eliminate the paims and | nal Constitution were retained by the states; and also takes from the states | the power to manage, control and regulate purely local affairs.° To my | mind there no escape from such conclusions; — and Yurther | changes of like ch: at rter will oblit- erate the line which separates Fed- eral from State authorit The fathers of our Constitution | wisely provided, that the power to| declare war should not be lodged in one man, and by Section 8 of Article | I. declared that congress only shall} ch power. s X. and XXI. of the League | would, in. effect, con- fer such ‘power upon one man, name- ly, our representative in the council. | The constitution gave congress the power to fix the t of government and locate the capitol. In the exer cise of such power the seat of gov- fixed in the District of nd the capitol located in| ment from the District of Columbia to Switzerland, and the capitol from} Yashington to Geneva. To those here and to all Americans I say watch over the Constitution of your country. Under its aegis we have expanded from_a narrow fringe upon the Atlantic, to the golden ‘shores of the Pacific; from the gulf to the lakes and beyond; from the} equator north to the pole, and west- ward to the Phillipines. It follo a flag that is never furled, for when the flag is lowered on the banks of the Potomac as the setting sun gilds the dome of the itol, it salutes the rising sun in the distant Philippines. As Webster said of England, “The morning reville of our camp drums keeps pace with the rising sun, en-| cireling the earth with one continu- ous and unbroken strain of the mar- tial airs” of America. | Show no quarter to those who would center all state power at Wash- | ington, or transfer national power | to Geneva, and thereby destroy those | great principles written into our fun- | damental laws by Washington, Frank- | lin, Hamilton, Wilson and Madison. “Luy to your hearts the ramet warning of the Hebrew _ prophet: Walk in the old paths; stand upon the ancient, ways; observe them well; and | be ye not given unto change.’?, | Note: In. revising to be printed with the convention's proceedings, 1 have inserted matter not in the ad- | drevs read, and omitted mutter thyt Many of the thoughts express s is manifest, are not original, in my own language. | ed, altho clothed All of the last paragraph is taken} from a magazine article prepared by \present, due Mires, and the city was showered with | Man Saves Wife in Nick of Time, “My wife was unable to eat even |the lightest food, and had fallen away | | to a living skeleton.
