To what extent they have profited remains to be seen. It is one thing to put over a proposition in a convention or primary, but without due regard for the ensuing election it becomes altogether something else. mee We have had a Democratic governor in fi'yoming and the same man is now a Democratic senator in the United States senate representing the state of Wyo- ming, He is an astute and crafty politician and gets more on his political investments than any man yet to come out of Wyoming. For a long time his re- turn to the United States senate bes been in the process of making. “Don’t delude yourself by any false hope that John B. Kendrick will overlook any of the vital points of the game. He will not. And don’t think for an i stant thet he will not point out to the voters of Wyo- ming such facts and figures as will be of advantage to his political fortunes. The people of Wyoming as well as the people at large have ut times shown a strong desire to keep things about balanced. The senate is safely Repub- lican and will be for some time to come. Mr. Mon- dell is‘not needed in the senate to maintain a Repub- lican majority and he is needed in the house to sus- tain Wyoming's prestige, increase it and bring higher honors to himself. Mr, Kendrick will tell you in his campaign that you should have a showing of Democrats in the senate as somewhat of a balance tu the large majority of the dominant party and thus work out to highest useful- ness our two party scheme of government. The re- sourceful Mr. Kendrick will not overlook any of thes? little points. It must be religiously remembered that the Repud- lican party of Wyoming stubbed its toe in 1910, 1914 and. 1916, only to speak of recent years. In the year 1914 Mr. Kendrick was made governor and in 1913 senator. His success was made possible only by the votes of Republicans, for Wyoming is a Republican state arid her people are not inclined to jump the fence without cause. . When we went into it we constantly reminded our- selves that “We've got to win this war.” It’s the same thing now—we've got to win. But at the same time there is no sense in being blind to the things we have to face. a Ee Pe ae WHO RUNS CONGRESS AND WHY. In the national house of representatives there are 435 members. The membership is apportioned on a basis of population. Wyoming has but one of these members. If we assume, for argument’s sake, that the total number will not be increased and that mat- ters run true to form, under the law of averages Wyo- ming will get another chance at the congrew,onal leadership in 400 years and will again be eligicie to the speakership in the same long stretch of time. Wyoming voters have put Frank Mondell where le is today. His ability warrants his having his pres- ent position of majority leader. But it is his senior- ity that makes it possible for him to be the leader. It is said in Washington that Massachusetts and Wyoming are running congress. How is that? you ask. Because of Senator Lodge and Speaker Gillette’s standing and consequent influence for Massachusetts, and because of Senator Warren and Majority Lead- er Mondell’s. standing and consequent influence for: Wyoming. By all logic and fairness Wyoming voters desire Mr. Mondell to remain majority leader in the hous: the third strongest legislative position in America 2nd to remain in line for the speakership, the second! strongest place in American politics. i CSL ae A FAMOUS SOUTHERN BEAUTY. Mrs. Adelaide Allen Day of Atlanta, Georgia, who came into fame a few years ago by being selected by the late Colonel Theodore Roosevelt as the most beautiful young woman of the south, is adding fur- ther to her distinction by instituting divorce proceed- ings against her husband and making sensational charges against him. The divorce bug is no respector of persons, beautiful or otherwise, it makes no dif- ference, when once stung there is no cure except a visit to the court, a lot of notoriety, some alimony and after a year for recovery, to try it all over again. Be BANE nee AR ATE “EXCURSONIA.” . “During three summer months the United States is obliterated for many inhabitants by a new land which might be called Excursonia” is the way it occurs to the New York Evening Post. “During the war the insistent advice to see America first was coupled with ® paradyxical refusal to supply the most useful means, the excursion rate. Now June 1 has made the cor- ners of the daily papers blossom with the old adver- tisemeats, there to remair till the end of September. There was much justice in the complaint that seeing America first without excursion rates meant that Cape Cod was crowded with visitors from—Boston; that Niagara hotels were filled with sightseers from—Butf- falo; and Pike’s Peak was climbed by throngs from— Denver. Our land is so diversified that each section can be self-sufficiens in the matter of recreation grounds. Even in the middle west the people of Chi- cago have the Wisconsin Isakes and woods, and the people of St. Louis have the Ozarks close at hand. “The great national usefulness of the excursion is achieved when it places the North Carolinian on Coney 4 Californian at Hot Springs, By scenery it induces men to travel further afield y would otherwise think of doing Is any easier way of ing $43.87 than by going California when the railways re- duce the rate till September 3 from $203.15 to $159.28? : “Excursonis ass steadily grown. Its principal points when G. W. Curtis wrote ‘Lotus Eating,’ a guidebook to resorts of days before the Civil war, were Catskill Falls, Trenton, Niagara, Saratoga, Lake George, New- port and Nahant. Trenton?—yes, the Trenton near Utica, to whose cataract Stoddard write’ a poem. When in the 80s Charles Dudley Warner published “Their Pilgrimage,’ another guidebook, he had to in- clude not ‘only the spots named, but Cape May and Sulphur Springs further south and Bar Harbor further north. Nowadays the trans-Mississi; occupy half of any adequate guide. the word ecursion has resumed some of its older meaning. When Dr. Johnson went on an excursion to the Hebrides it signified a tour of magnitude. Theh came a@ period when it meant a brief dash, usually :a a special excursion train or bout, often for a mere week-end. An excursion today may mean anything from a Bear Mountain trip to a grand circle through the Canadian Rockies, down the coast, and back via the Grand Canyon to New York. No one who appre- ciates the educational value of travel can help hoping that the railways and steamship lines induce many to put a fairly long construction upon it.” pret oa DISGRACE WIPED OUT. The basis upon which the next national convention will be constituted, as changed by the Republican na- tional committee at its recent meeting will pe: Four delegates at large from each state. Two additional delegates at large for each repre- sentative at ‘arge in congress from any state. Two delegates at large for each of the territories. Two delegates at large from each state casting a majority of its electoral votes for the Republican presidential nominee in the last preceding election. One district delegate from each congressional dis- trict maintaining a Republican disttict organization and casting 2,500 or more votes for any Republican presidential elector or Republican nominee for con- gress in the preceding election. oS One additional district delegate from each congres- sional district casting 10,000 votes or more for any Republican elector or Republican congressional nomi- nee in the preceding election. One alternate delegate to each delegate to the na- tional convention, A state, if its laws require, may elect the total number of delegates permitted under the plan at large, and in case the state laws so require the total. num- ber of delegates at large shall be the same as if they were elected: by districts. The change in representation, based on- the Repub- lican votes of the last election, reduces by 23 the number of delegates accredited from the southern states to the Chicago convention last June. This rep- resents a cut of 17 per cent in the number of dele- gates from those states since the 1912 convention. Under the néw apportionment, the next national con- vention will be made up of 1,037 delegates, 53 more than the last unless there are gregt changes in the state votes of last fall upon which the calculation was made, The old system allowed for one delegate from each congressional ;district; but under the new plan a dis- trict ‘must have east 2,500 Republican votes in the last preceding election before it may send a delegate to the convention. To have two district delegates there must huve been cast 10,000 Republican votes, or a Republican representative: must-have been elected to congress. Uniler the former plan, 7,500 votes gave two delegates. ing two additional delegates-attarge from each state ied at the last preceding ‘election by the Repub- Feans: oe Ie Tcnnessee is mo longer considered a part of the solid. south and. is. givea un increased representation of two delegates as 1 result of the last election when the state was carried by the Republicans and a gov- ernor and five out of ten congressmen elected. The southern states, under the new plan will be affected as follows: Arkansas, increased 1. Florida, increased 4 Georgia, reduced 7. Lonisiana, reduced 3. Mississippi, reduced 8. South Carolina, reduced 7. Texas, reduced 2. Virginia, increased 1, North Carolina, no change. Alabama, no change. The net result is that these states, unless changes come in the voting will send 144 delegates to the national convention in 1924 instead of 167 as was the case at Chicago in 1920. The new plan was devised by National Committee- man R. B. Howell of Nebraska, who has been a con- sistent figater for years to end the unfair representa- tion from southern states that produced no electoral yotes for president and elected no Republican mem- bers of congress, oftentimes maintaining no organ- ization and having no candidates. After many years effort what has been denomi- nated the “southern disgrace” has been wiped out. EATER BA SEBEL 5< GETTING R!ID OF TRASH. In discussing spring subjects the Providence Jour- nal journeys to Kansas for inspiration. It says: “I. think every family should move every few years,’ says a Kansas philosopher, ‘to get rid of the natural accumulation of junk.’ “Good! But what is going to become of the ac- cumulation? Is the family expected to leave it be- hind—slough it off as a snake sloughs off his skin? That wouldn't be fair to the family that moves in. “Nobody likes to rent a house and find it-half full of trash—all sorts of outworn stuff in the closets ana cupboards, piles of refuse on the floors, abandoned furniture in the attic and barrels of shoes and empty bottles in the cellar. “Nevertheless, the Kansas man is on the right track. There is too much effort made to save valueless ar- ticles. The idea of the savers is that these things wil! come in handy some day, but in ninety-nine cases out of a hundred that day never arrives. “Let any reader of these lines ask himself whethcr, within his own domain, there is not a mass—or mess— of stuff that he would be better off without. It might be of some use to somebody, but it never will be to him. It will simply serve to clutter up the house, and to occupy space that might better be devoted to some- thing else, or to nothing at all. The saving habit is all right up to a certain point, but it can be carried too far.” ——$—_—_9—___— SELF-DES1RUCTION. During the year 1920, according to statistics, the number of suicides in the United States was in ex- cess of 12,000, an increase over the previous year. There is no one basic reason for self-inflicted death, the causes assigned being numerous, but the ma- jority of the cases the record shows were due to di- voree, congested living conditions and the eighteenth amendment. Out of the total number 707 were children, the boys averaging 15 years and the girls 16 years. The national society organized for the purpose of coping wiih the situation demands regulations mak- ing it more difficult for the public to secure firearms and deadly poisons which are the means employed for self-destruction to largest extent. Provision is also made in the new plan for seat-|" Tesap ies apie - its = If wo insiat upon © stalwart a (Burns Herald) Following many days. of rain, the sun came bright and warm Tuesday of this week and smiled on a world of good crdp prospects in Laramié county.

The federal game .erveration which adjoins the town of Jackson, known. officially as the “Winter Elk Refuge,”’ was authorized in 1911, in respanse to @ legislative memorial from the state of Wyoming to congress, as as- sistance and co-operation in the winter protection of the southern @k herd. Congress appropriated $45,000.00; 1,760 acres of land; (the R. E. Miller and Guy Germain holdings) were pur- chased and 1,000 acres added by execu: tive proclamation, and this tract, 2,760 acres, constitutes the present refuge. This game reservation produces about 600 tons “of hay annually and affords much winter pasturage: Hay and pasturage are for the winter sus- tenance of wild elk. Maintenance, win ter feeding and all other éxpenses are borne by the federal government. No Foundation for Rumor. (Guernsey Gazette.)

Chiropractic Founded on Facts Not Theories SOseoooooooe There are many so-called preventatives and cures for disease; but it must be plain they neither prevent nor cure, as no headway appears to have been made by their use. Hence one would seem justi in questioning their efficacy. It is our opinion that nature alone has power to restore health to the body—and will use it to that end when the nerve channels are unobstructed. Acting upon that belief chiropractors work with their bare hands only to adjust displaced bones, and their work has been widely rewarded by splendid results to their patients, a count- less number of whom are persons who were afflicted with complaints of ea aoe for which they had found no relief through other ealth modes. “Hard We personally To overcome bodily deficiencies there is no use to resort to methods which at best afford but temporary relief. The nerve circuit must be cleared of its obstructions. When health energy flows in normal quan- tity and degree from the brain to all parts through the nerves, the whole constitution will be in a state of natural resistance and fully competent to protect itself against the dangers of disease. Chiropractic is the twentieth century method of the elimination of disease. It will bear investigation. 209906029068 Drs B.G. andE: E.
