Curtis of Casper, who was at Buf- falo, New York, the other day was asked what he thought of President Harding’s appointment of Hon. E. C. Finney as assistant secretary of the interior de- partment. Mr. Curtis who has large western inter- ests which come in direct contact with that depart- ment made him the target of the eastern press for an opinion. He told the newspaper men this: “I cannot go too strong in approval of the president's action. He has met with my approval in about everything he has done from the day of his nomination. But he has shown rare julgment in cabinet and other important selections. Mr. Finney’s appointment is particularly gratifying. He is a splendid lawyer, an incessant worker, a man of unerring judgment and his integ- rity is absouteiy unquestioned. And Governor Spry’s appointment as commissioner of the general land of-| fice, is a case of an eminently qualified man placed in| the proper position. He needs no introduction to the | people, west or cast. He brings to the government's land office, an aggressiveness, efficiency and justice which will fully maintain the standari set by the re- tiring commissioner, Hon. Clay Tallman.” SERRE SL Ha My goodness, there seems to be a terrible lot of marital difficultics in the families our millionaire friends. 0. THEY AUTO PAY THE FREIGHT. The people in many portions of the state are wak- ing up to the fact that there is to be an election on May 10, to determine whether Wyoming desires to is- sue bonds in the sum of $1,800,000 to match up with the same sum provided by the federal government, the total to be devoted to building permanent roads in Wyoming, or whether we will decline the govern- ment's offer refuse to take advantage of the good things offered us and continue to plug along over mud roads the rest of our days. It ought not to be necessary to write a sermonette on the desirability of good roads. Wyoming people ought to already know and appreciate all about good roads. We believe they do. We believe they will favor the proposed bond issue which will go a long ways toward establishing the good roads system in the state already well under way. ‘We don’t believe they will refuse the government's tender of the same amount in cash as we raise by our bond, issue. The interest payments and the repayment of the principle will be provided by the automobile license fees paid by the owners of automobiles. The fees are placed in a sinking fund for the purvose. It is no more than fair that the owners of ve- hicles which create the major portion of the traffic should get out and get under the means that provides the good roads they use and for which they are con- stant and consistent advocates. For many years we have pulled the automobiles out of the mud, now it is the business of the auto- mobilists to pull us out of the mud. They are will- ing: Let them do it. 0. There is comfort to the citizen residing at the crime| centers, that the cost is less for a hospital room than a hotel room. —— SUGGESTS THREE OF THEM. Writing from Paris to the San Francisco Chronicle Prof. Bernard Moses suggests that the Geneva meet- ing of the assembly of the league of nations demon- strated the impossibility of one body informing it- self on all the racial and international problems of the world, and that what is needed is three lagues—Eu- ropean, American and Asiatic. “Prof. Moses is emeritus professor of history and political science in the University of California, served a term as a member of the Philippines com. mission and is thoroughly familiar with Latin-Amer- ican problems by personal study on the ground and as official member of the pan-American congresses. And he now resids in Paris in direct contact with European feeling. “The views of a man of that experience are well worth considering.. The-present league, as Prof. Mo- ses says, is substantially a European league, with Ja- pan representing all Asia and indifferent to all ques- tions except those which directly affect Japan, in re- spect to which Japanese statesmen are singularly alert. ‘The real power is in the hands of the council, ‘which is distinctly a European body.” ——__—0- Before marriage he called her his Venus de Milo.

She ex- pressed her opinion of the league of nations in Nov- | ember. favored such an undertaking. Kansas has been call- ed upon since to render an opinion of anothér league, this time the non-partisan league. In the latter case she showed no less willingness to go on record than in the former case. What she said, she said with em- phasis and tar and feathers. It seems to have made |no particular difference to the Kansans that a for- mer United States senator was included in the de- portations that followed the expression of sentiments toward the league and its emissaries who were seek- |ing to establish themselves within the borders of the state. | Kansas is loyal. She will have nothing of leagues | which do not consider America first. She repudiated the Versailles league on that account and the non- partisan league because it not only harbored traitors to America but plain pirates upon American institu- |tions as well. The illegality of kicking the leaere yut of Kanszs jcan be waived. more drastic may befall. The example of Kansas carries not a single regret }to those who love their country and would care for |their homes and property. It would be well that similar action be taken in other parts, where attempts |are made to establish this. blighting league. ‘The |country is fully fed up on what may be expressed as | damphoolishness. | 0 | She said her new evening gown was a poem, but her friends, who had viewed it said, owing to its brevity it was more properly an epigram, ERA ARIAT RISE es | THE NECESSITY FOR RELIEF. There can be no doubt of the distressing situation in Ireland. Thepress from time to time has dwelt upon the subject of destruction of industries, unem- ployment and growing destitution, of the people, who would help themselves if there was an opportunity open to them. The necessity for rendering assist- ance is most pressing. Under the circumstances, America, unofficially, is the only source from which help can come with propriety; and from which people the right to ask exists. If further assurance were necessary the cablegram of Daniel Cohalan, bishop -of Cork, states the case succinctly. The bishop says: “I beg leave to express a deep sense of gratitude to the American Committee for Relief in Ireland for. its noble undertaking, Representatives of the com-. mittee have come here to see for themselves and have impressed everyone with their splendid business qual- ities “Cork suffered very severely. The largest stores and warehouses were destroyed by the fire. This threw a considerable number out of employment who will be dependent on relief until the business of the stores is again started. Besides this a number of smaller shopkeepers and other employers were ruin- ed by the fire. With a loan they can start business again and by giving employment can take a‘number off the relief fund. “A considerable sum is required in the general re- constructi#n of this city, of other. cities and towns jand in the restoration of the creameries. This work is of most urgent necessity. This country is largely a butter country. The farmers had turned from home |manufacture to creameries with the work largely |along co-operative lines. The Joss-of the creameries jimperils the butter industry. jemployment .from economic causes, but. the destruc- |tion already wrought by the troubles of the moment jand the number of persons afraid to work lest they be caught and deported has increased the roll of un- employed and interfered with the economic life of~the country. Your representatives have given us great hope and have inspired new confidence. They do not regard us as beggars but as people anxious te work out their political and economic destiny by manly in- dependence. What we want is temporary aid in re- jconstruction. We look to you with confidence for the means of reconstruction.’ Cork is most grateful to you.” From the members of the American committee this |statement has been received which more’ than bears out the facts stated by the bishop: “One hundred and fifty thousand pounds ($750,- 000 at normal exchange) will be required to rebuild the creameries in Ireland. In the counties of Kerry, Limerick and Tipperary, twenty-nine creameries were wholly or partially destroyed. These creameries, run on the co-operative pian, were supplied with milk by 5,000 farmers. These farmers, with their families, 2 total of 20,000 persons, have been reduced to dire want. If the ceeameries are not put in. operation soon, it is feared that many farmers will be forced to sell their herds. The bankers and merchants in the cities emphasize that business stagnation is largely due to the crippling of the country’s agricultural in- dustry.” Casper is already engaged in doing her part and has gone into it with such will that her quota is assured. MR. HUGHES’ POLICY, Secretary Hughes says, in dealing with the Latin- American countries, the policy of the administration will be to promote by co-operation the common in- terests of all. “We have and will have no ulterior purpose with respect to any of the republics of Latin America. We wish to help to a common prosperity through the safe~ guarding of peace, the fostering of friendship and of mutually advantageous commercial intercourse. We cannot fail to realize that we can have neither se- curity nor peace, neither stability nor progress, un- less reason rules and justice is assured. We are all collaborators in that greatest of endeavors and we are looking forward with the utmost confidence to an era of exceptional mutual benefits through our work- ing together in a spirit of mutual trust.” When Mr. Hughes speaks, he speaks for the Amer- ican government, and the policy he establishes will not be overturned by the president who is in perfect accord with the secretary. Our friends of Latin-America are aware of this and are no doubt rejoiced that the old authority of the United States has returned and is in the hands of able, efficient and honest men who care for the in- terests of the Western Hemisphere with wisdom and judgment. é sonous are still in the hands of politicians, with no| without stopping no less than twenty-five hundred) It was anything but gratifying to those who| It is better so, for fear something) “This year, like every other country we have un- jf The volume of business transacted |at the Wheatland post office entitles the town to city mail delivery when- ever the patrons desire It, according to Postmaster Patterson. Wheatland holds a high’ rank among the towns of the state as.to the amount of business transacted, sur- passing most towns of its size in this respect, and comparing favorably with Severa! towns much larger. All citizens who would be glad to have free delivery of malls are re- quested to express their wishes to the postmasier. If requested by a sufficient number the service will be inaugurated. Mayor Elliott advises that if free mail delivery is established the city will immediately put up street 8 and number the residences, which is something that has long been desired. Want State Ald The Lincoln county commissioners will proceed to Cheyenne and make a personal appearance before the state highway commission in order to se- cure state aid for the necessary county road improvements, Just when the state meeting will be held is as yet uncertain, as the date for the April meeting of the commis- sion has not yet been fixed, but the |county officials are assured of a hearing and will be notified when to go, to the capital. ‘Until additional state bonds are voted, there is no money available for any of, the counties for read improv ments, according to Commissioner Mc- Calman, bu. the highway commis- sion will weleur:c. an interview with the county officials in order to deter- mine what aid may ultimately be \siven by the state, It if expected that all three commis- sioners will go to Cheyenne when the matter comes up for consideration and if the election of May 10th car- ries and additional bonds are voted, it is quite likely Tincoln county. will be successful in securing aid from the state authorities for the completion of the Willow Gap project. Wins Oratorical Contest. Pine Bluffs Post) Pine Bluffs has never failed to land at least one first place in the contests held during High School week in Laramie.
