Yea- Ser, formerly of Cheyenne and who was post of the ‘American Legion, has re- signed from this position ir order to! { sive more Strict attention to tue office of; state secretary in Wyoming of the legion. Secretary Fisher in tendering his resignation said that the time had come when the work in Casper as sec-} retary required extremely careful han dling and: needed somebody on the job all of the time. “My work as state secretary takes me away from Casper and to other towns in the state so much that I feel that T cannot do justice to my work as local secretary and at the same time care- fully do all the work required of. the legion state secretary. In keeping with the request of the executive committee that new officers be elected at every, Legion post, in the state during the month of February, the George Vroman post No. 2 of Casper will name its new officers Monday, Feb- ruary 23, Nominations for different offices will be made Monday, February 17 at a spe- cjal meeting of the Legion post to’ be held in the Army and Navy club rooms in the basement of the West hotel building. murder of policeman at Laramie a few yeurs ago, is “at liberty" to a great er extent than he is permitted to enjoy under the “honor system.” ‘The report which evoked the denial was to the ef- fect that Yeager had been released from the penitentiary, assumably on parole or through pardon. Yeager's sentence was” commuted a year ago to imprisonment for from 20 to 30 years. This commutation was the result of perhaps the most pevsistent efforts in behalf of a convict ever ex- erted in Wyoming. Later he was placed on “honor’' and permitted to accept a position in Rawlins, which he still holds and thru which he {s earning $100 a month, one-half of which he turns over to the warden of the penitentiary. An interesting development in Yea- &er’s case was the incorporation here recently of the “C. C. Yeager Oil com- pany.” The corporation's capital stock is $50,000, consisting of 200,000 shares of the par value of 25 cents each. The directors named in the articles of in- corporation are C.€. Yeager, J. Beving- ton, J. M. English, T. W. Sittén and A. K. Marshall, the latter of whom was at-the time chief clerk at the state-pent tentiary.

Goldie, associated with the com- plexion of whom there is no suggestion of gold, was not grateful, but protested against interference with his plan to steal a ride from Cheyenne to Rawlins. He had not been crushed to death -dur- ing the 56-mile run from Cheyenne and “reckoned” he could have gone through to Rawlins without disaster. “Pretty cold riding, wasn't it,” in- quired a witness of the rescue. “I wasn't contemplating no summer excursion when I started,” replied Davis.
