The day for convening of the next legislature of Wyoming is not very distant and local néws- papers over the state have begun to enumerate the special qualifications of favorite sons for the pres- idency of the senate and speakérship of the hotise. The early announcements, so far noted for pre- siding officer of the senate are: Arthur K. Lee of Hot Springs County, H. J. Chassell of Campbell County, W. W. Daley of Carbon County, John Dil- lon of Fremont County. Aside from local newspaper support, which may be regarded as prejudiced judgment, the géen- = s. Any one of them Would lend dignity to the ‘mt office loyal frieds have selected him to + fitness, every one of them named have ative expérience, are gentlemen of the ? hnding in the state, widely aéquaihted aid ~sadrSexnly familiar with the needs of the state. In fact, they are exceptional men. There may be others among the senate membership, just as high class, but they have not been nated in connection with the presidency. For the speakership we hear the names of J. C. Underwood of Laramie County, C.P. Story of Sheridan County, Alfred H. Beach*of Weston’ Coun- ty; P. W. Jenkins of Fremont County. Here again you have a group of excellent men, all first-class speakership timber. You may be able to select many more of the same quality from the house roll, but you could pick none better. There is no fixed geographical rule for the division of the ruling offices of the two housés. Al- though it has génerally beed tecdgnized that when the chief officer of the one house is selected from, say the southern part of the state, the chief officer of the other house is conceded to the northern part of the state. A number of yery strong combinations can be formed with the candidates mentioned, and it is altogether likely that one of them will be worked out by the members when they come to the busi- ness of election. For instance, Mr. Lee of the senate and Mr. Underwood of the house; Mr. Daley. of the senate and Mr, Story of the house; Mr. Dilton of the sen- ate and Mr. Beach of the house and Mr. Chassell of the senate and Mr. Jenkins’ of the house. Tt fs just barely possible that the senate. and house will desire to have something to say as to who will preside over the respective bodies, And while it may be assumed that the members will not take unkindly, suggestions from the outside, they may resent undue interference with their constitu- tional prérogalives, That being the case we Will let the suggestions go as they look, and awaic any call for help that | may come from either house to further arrange their affairs. President-elect Harding has invitéd Reéd of Missouri, Pomerene of Ohio and Shields of Ten- nessee, all Democrats, to confer with him upon league and other public mattérs. This is a proper step and the first evidence of a great administrator. The minority has rights that must be réspectéd. MASTERS OF OWN FATE. The country has awaited ever sincé the eléction to hear from Henry Cabot Lodge, the distinguished Massachusetts senator, who directed the opposition to the Wilson League of Nations, in senate, national convention and campaign. Senator Lodge took occasion; in an address to the Roosevelt Club of Boston t6 éxptéss his views. He said: des®. 35-far as the United States is concerned by | the verdict of the great tribunal of the people, it is for the adininistration of President Harding and his Supporters in the house and senate to bring about some arranyement with other nations for the pro- motion of the world’s peace without incurring dan- system of government. The responsibility is very great, but we do not shrink from it. | the building-trades of New York has resulted in the | upon the question of inviting former King Con- matey — forth of city government, have become sted with it and are now moving to secure e city mahager form. eridan’s experience has been, among other things, an increased cost of ic administration and inability to secure, for the salaries paid, men of the high quality and abil- ity to ditect city affairs, that is necessary in these fimes, ~ MILADY’S SNUFF BOX. In matters of fashion it is simply one foible aft- er anothér. No one ever knows what next, until all of a sudden it arrives. You could, with consider- ablé teason conclude, that there was nothing new wheteby the required thrill could be produced or the tongues oF gossip. sét wagging. eh novelty is lacking and things move slow- ly, the old is tevived, furbished up and—lo, you have it! Ih reality it does not require much to thrill so- ciety. Anything real or worth while costs effort and that does not appeal to the ultra ultra. aris, as usual, sets the pace. Paris has gone back a hundred years, seizéd upon the snuff box that men discafdéd at that time and have made of it a fashionable fad. The snuff boxes are ornate and wohderful ‘in workmanship and in many styles. ey are now carried in handbags and the latest vahity cases provide a suitable place for them. London is in the throes of the new hobby and New York is just taking the plunge. Thé cigarette is passe. Refined elegance seck- ing novelty no longer languidly puff: perfumed cigarette, but extracts the jeweled si box, sifts out just a whiff ‘or pinch between two sinall and highly manictired fingers and applies it to the nos-. trils, : ney Well, whatever you might be pleased (6 say é newest sensation, we rejoice that the ladies who originate the fashions have not comeé in contact with the soothing influence of plug chewit: oe afd set the seal of fashionable apprbeal upén it. The official count in Ohio shows Senator Hard: ing’s plurality to be 401,985 and that of Govern- or-elect Davis 120,893, There was a rumor cur- rent about the time of the San Francisco conven- tion that Mr. Cox was a vote getter in Ohio. | INSISTS ON SIX VOTES. ‘Lord Robert Cecil,” who represents South Af- | tice at the sessions of the League of Natigns assem- | bly, explains at length the meaning of the several articles of the covenant to which the United States is supposed to object. Lord Robert is pullitig old stuff. The people of | the United States have intetpreted for themselves | the fiieauing of the league and have expressed an unmistakable contempt for the whole thing, The goed British lord declines to redute the voting power of the British empire, which how stands at six, upon the ground that Great Britain cannot afford to quarrel with the dominions.

The Whité House press agent is givifig the pub- lic reassiting news of the president's improving physical condition ahd éven ‘goes so strong as to in- timate that he may deliver his message to congress in person. OF couitse, the president will do fothing of the kind. The White House press buréau knows it better than anyone.else. Why such persistent kid- ding about an unfortunate matter of this sort is in- dulged is past understanding. {f it all resultéd in improvement in the distin- | guished patient thefe would: be excise.

It is understood that Gréat Britain and France view as “intoler- able,” the king’s return. Thesé powers have let it be known that the entire group of allies consider the action of the eabinet in deciding upou the plebiscite as a mistake, and that these powers would not permit the king to resume his former position and powérs; fiither répresentations are to the effect that friendly relations upon the part | of the allies would cease in case the present'course is persisted in by the people and the cabinet.
