The senate from 12 noon yester- day on had no real business: before it other than the conference reports, and the house little more, the lower body soon disposing of the joint memorial to congress requesting greater diligence in the administration of soldier rejiet and rehabilitation legislation. ‘The house during the afternoon dis- cussed the ore situation in the State nnd appointed jee to confer with ‘ail Loeb Lee of thé southern district. ‘The committee, how- ever, failed to make connections with the supervisor, a fact possibly due to a report from his office that the period for taking tlie census had been extend- ed. Former Governor Joseph M, Carey, fa- ther of the present governor, address- ed the house during the afternoon on woman suffrage, giving an illuminating history of equal suffrage in this state and its effect on the national atti- tude toward the vote for women. The ratification of the ‘suffrage amendment to the federal constitution he charac- terized as one of the best acts ever accomplished by a Wyoming legislature. The tedium of the afternoon session of the senate was somewhat relieved by an explanation by Senator Frank son for the fact that he temporarily domiciled in Utah instead of at his home at Afton, Wyoming. The condition’ of Mrs. Cranney’s health, he stated, made it necessary for her to reside in a low: er altitude and her devoted family in- sisted on. being with her during her exile from Wyoming, an exile which they all ardently hope will be of brief duration. Senator Cranney stated that he retained all of his property inter- ests in Wyoming, was and expected always to be a resident of Wyoming and was, he believed, not in a status different from that of any other Wyo- mingite temporarily by reason of neces- sity domiciled outside the state. Today legislators are difficult to find in Cheyenne, nearly all the non-residents having departed for home as quickly as possible after the final adjournment. nlrb ian a rane RANCH EMPLOYE AT GAREYHURST VICTIM TRAGEDY William Numrich Kicked to’ Death by Horse and Then Dragged Long Distance by Run- away Team ———_- 10 The Tribune.)
