The government has suffered none by the operation, that can be discovered. Of course the grafters and deserving Democrats and such like have suffered the gent could not reasonably expect to cling to the front udder forever. With both the executive and legislative ends of the government in Republican control it may be assumed that some responsibility will be shown as well as a higher regard for the “people who bear the burdens than has been shown by the retiring executive depart- }olis going north from town. And 2 tot of other good work has been done and is being used by the people who live in Wyoming every day of the year. There are people who object to building roads for tourists, but they do not come in contact with the re- sults or_they would go out and work for tourist roads. They do not know that we have living right here in Casper today, over two hundred and fifty families that came to Casper as tourists, and who liked the town so well that they settled here and have People’s Forum.

In bygone days, prize fights, boxing matches, wrestling matches and such entertainments were ex- clusively mens’ affairs. You would as readily ex- pect to find women in public barrooms drinking at the counter as at exhibitions of this character. Just how it all came about, no one knows, but of ia sudden you find women taking an interest in all these affairs. And next you find the members of the most exclusive circles in cities like New York and Chicago promoting boxing matches as a means of providing funds for charity. It is somewhat of a shock, we must admit, and we need time to get accustomed to the idea and away from the puritan prejudice that has held us in its grasps so long. Of course when “ladies’ night” is a regular thing at athletic entertainments and they attend in great numbers and make a dress parade of it, there is nothing more to be said. If exhibitions of the “manly art” afford a new thrill, are simply a fad, or if women are really inter- ested, it makes no difference, we may as well accus- tom ourselyes to expect brilliant gowns and picture hats at the ringside, and save ourselves from appear- ing foolish by interposing objectioris” So far the removal of the “rallying point” from the ballroom to the ringside has met with no great success locally, but you never can tell. ait They will stand the worst oppression, So long’s they think some other fellow’s meant. —Birmingham Age-Herald. pa 2 5 ORK GY PASSING OF THE LEAGUE. “British and European opinion generally,” says the Kansas City Star, “seems convinced, and perhaps not unwillingly, that the advent of the Harding adminis- tration means the end of the League of Nations, at least in its present form. President Harding, while nos, opposed to international understandings and co- operation for peace and justice, sounded in his in- augural address a clear note of nationality, and that note seems to have carried across the Atlantic and to have been understood. “The super sovereignty conception of the league, which was the theory its original advocates worked on, did not take hold. It was abandoned for reasons that might have been anticipated. American opinion took the lead in emphatically rejecting any plan that) involved a surrender of national authority to any in- ternational body, and events soon showed that even in Europe nationality was too strong for the ambi- tious design on which the league theory centered. From that moment the league became a mere volun- tary agreement that never got started in execution. It was designed to be the agency for the carrying out of the Versailles treaty, but was immediately super- seded by the supreme council of premiers which -pro- ceeded exactly as, though the league had not existed. If anything were needed. to show the helplessness of the league it was supplied in the spectacle furnished when it could not move a small force of borrowed sol- diers across Europe to police Vilna. “The admission has been made often enough in the most responsible quarters abroad that no league can be effective without the participation of the United States. The admission is again the burden of most European comment on President Harding’s inaugura- tion. The United States will not participate in the present league, and it can never hope to function. It is nothing but a costly organization of secretaries writing notes which receive no attention anywhere. ! a highway for commercial purposes, one that we can use our trucks over for short hauls. between .our towns, and maybe you do not know it but more than 60 per cent of all the peo- ple of the whole State of Wyoming, live practically on the Yellowstone Highway, and so every dollar that is invested in permanent roads on this highway is there for the benefit of the Majority of All the People of Wyoming The following clipping from the Lin- years the Yellowstone highway has been improved by several miles of permanent highway.

(Douglas Enterprise) A meeting of the sheepmen of Con- verse county “vill be held at the city hall next Saturday afternoon, March 12, at 2 o'clock. This meeting has been called for the purpose of secur- ing the signature of every sheepman in the county to a petition which will make this county a non-dipping dis- trict. At the last session of the legislature the compulsory annual dipping law ‘was amended so that upon petition ot} the owners of two-thirds of the sheep assessed in the county during the pre- vious year, that county would be ex- and any home owner who has pride in his city will hurry to remove the in- dictment against him. Even the door- yards and premises of some homes loom up like sore thumbs. It is time for spring housecleaning, and this applies to the city as well as the homes. pride, if not for sanitary and other reasons, the people of Kemmerer who have been negligent are asked to at once set about cleaning up their premises and the alleys and streets in the rear and in front of their homes, Farming Conditions Favorable. \ (Laramie Boomerang) “President Harding has only reiterated what has been accepted everywhere as America’s final judz- ment and position on the league question. America ‘can enter into no political commitments nor assume any economic obligations which will subject our de- cisions to any other than our own aythority.’ At the same time ‘we are ready to associate ourselves with the nations of the world, great and small, for confer- ence, for counsel, to seek the expressed views of world opinion, to'récommend a way to approximate disarma- ment and relieve the crushing burdens of military and naval establishments.’ So far as that position opens the way to international action the United States is ready to discuss what the action shall be and the “means for taking it. So far also as-that means the Sinn Se MUST NOT FORGET THE RULES. "” Has Great Britain forgotten the Venezuelan inci- dent of 1902? Press reports have it that Britain has delivered an ultimatum to Costa Rica demanding not only the pay- ment of the bonded debt due Britons but also the con- firmation of certain oil concessions obtained from the former Tioco government by Lord Cowdray, with the assistance, it is said, of Premier Lloyd George and members of his family. It is intimated that the Brit- ish government has proceeded to press the case with- out consulting the United States, which has an inter- est in such matters, not only because of the Monroe doctrine, which is generally endorsed by Latin Amer- ican countries and which deny the right cf nations to collect debts by the use of armed forces. Prior to 1902 several foreign countries had for some time been pressing claims of their citizens against the Venezuelan government for losses Caused by revolutions in that country, and for failure of Venezuela to keep up interest payments on the pub- lic debt. Their representations were flouted. Finally the German and British governments de- cided to make a demonstration by way of a joint na- val blockade, their ministers at Cdracas presented ultimatums, and the Castro government ignoring them, the blockade was instituted December 10, 1902. On the 18th Puerto Cabello was bombarded, where- upon Castro appealed to the United States to inter- vene. There was no particular reason why we should have succored Venezuela, since she had treated us with contemptuous indifference, but fearing that the European powers might attempt territorial aggres- sions, the Roosevelt administration issued a warning against any such movement and requested that the matter be arbitrated. The matter was brought be- fore The Hague tribunal and a decision was rendered in February, 1904. Akers says: ‘It would have fared ill with Vene- scrapping of the League of Nations, as contemplated in the treaty of Versailles, it stands scrapped.” PR RA SR TS The churches of the United States made a net gain in membership during the past year of 667,000. If they.can hold the previous membership and keep up the present lick for a few years we will begin to make headway against some of the various waves that are sweeping the country. PRS Sea COSTS AND LOSSES OF WAR. Senator Spencer submitted a statement to the sen- ate the other day respecting costs and-—losses of na- tions in the European war which is rather appalling. The estimated net loss suffered by the nations par- ticipating is approximately $140,000,000. America will bear the greatest burden by reason of non-par- ticipation in the German indemnities, her final loss totaling $41,874,000,000. Japan’s net losses ure the lowest, totaling $232,000,000. Approximate net losses of other nations show Great, Britain $41,202,634,000, France 273,000,000, Italy $15,181,000, Belgium $2,475,000, China $465,- 376,000. In estimating gross costs, France leads with $54,~ 272,915,000, followed by Great Britain $51,052,634,- 000, America $44,173,948,225, Itaiy $18,630,847,000, Belgium $8,174,731,000, China $565,376,000 pan $481,818,000. The reduction in gro: various. nations is due to indemnities. These totals include total military, cost, ¢! and damage, relief contributions, louns and credits extended, estimated pensions and insurance to be paid, together with indemnity paid at:d to be paid by Germany, -with credit for indemnity allowed, and us matters now stand with inter-loans and interest un- paid. $38 When Lillian Russell Moore planted that chaste sa- zuela if the United States had not intervened, advis-|lutation upon the left cheek of Harry Daugherty, im- ing the allied powers that no permanent seizure or| mediately ht had taken the oath as attorney general, empt from compulsory dipping.

Wants To Be Deputy. (Sundance Times) ‘The many ‘Crook county friends of Reuben Hurtt are boosting the name of this popular young legionaire for appointment as deputy commissioner under A. 8S. Roche, head of the law enforcement department of Wyoming.
