Long drawn out conflicts involved and tkreats of costly litiga- tion in local and higher courts may automatically be ended as a result of the meeting, but definite word of the conference results is lacking. The Denverites, including Fred G, Bonfils, editor of the Denver Post; W. A. Matlock, John T. Bottom and other prominent Denver financiers, eitended the meeting as representa- tives of the Denver interests. Local} men who are said to be interested in| the valuable properties are W. H.| Willis Patten, and Stidger. The appearance of the local men in- dicates that the conference settlement will be on 11 quarter sections of land in 40-79 the heart of the big produc- ing district in Salt Creek. It is sald that these men represent the old An- Henry Miller drew and Johnson interests in the| field, which would amount to an un-| divided one-eighth interest in the 11 quarters of land. It is rumored that the conference, which was held here, is for the pur- pose of working out an equitable transaction for the division of the un- divided interests thus permitting each of the contesting parties to receive an unincumbered block of the acre- age proportionate to their respective |+, state further that at the time this SO Ebr Eee z 8 interests in ‘the whole. work was done that I was under the ee If such a transaction is completed | care of a doctor and was not able to HQASE {i FEK WE!

P. Spies, while connected with the Oil City Plumbing company made a. sewer con- nection in which he evaded the orders of the city engineer, resulting in heavy damake,” etc., and that the city ordered a suit against him both to correct this job and for damages on his bond. I wish to say that this was not a Job of Mr. Spies, but was done. by some laborers who were not plumb- ers; that no license was taken out for this job; that the city engineer never saw the job and didn’t know it was being done; that it was never in- sgected by the city inspector. I wish have been a journeyman plumber for 16 years last past, and passed the city examination in Casper and have been working for the largest plumbing, establishments in Casper for the past four years. Some one is off on the wrong foot in this matter and wrong- fully accusing me. No one ever came to me about this job, or at any time ever accused me of a violation of any city ordinance relative to my work as a plumber.

A. P. SPIES. (Special to The Tribune) CHEYENNE, Wyo. April 8.—Work suddenly was suspended at noon to- day on the Holmes well, being sunk for oil at Horse Creek, 35 miles north- west of here, on the heels of a report that the hols was on top of the sand and would be drilled in this afternoon. No explanation of the shutdown is given. “Barnett’s Of Course” HAVE YOU New Double-Breasteds?

It is a rate better form of government in my opinion than the old council of 16 men and @ mayor, with no one responsible for the govern- ment of the city. Personally, I think from the little experience I have had, that if the city just elected one man as mayor pnd allowed him to make all appointments and held him re- sponsible, it would be the ideal form of government. The same would apply to the Fear of ‘high water in’ the Platte river during the early spring months is held responsible for lack of de- velopment in several of the additions in. west and southwest Casper. De- velopment can.now go ahead without danger of: high water unless weather conditions change the aspect of things. Definite reports received from the Pathfinder dam, the key to the whole water situation, indicate that the wa- ter mark in. the structure is higher than it has ever been for this period of the year, but this is due to the abnormal weather conditions. Many of the mountain units which comprise the watershed of the dam fare said to be devoid of moisture giv- ing substance, the winter snows hav- state, electing just one man af gov- crnor and making him responsible for the government of the state. ‘The commission form of government is a step in that direction.
