Counsel for the state responded that, albeit the Wyoming constitution in other respects does make women the equals of men in citizenship, it pro- vides that only “men™ shall be eligible to duty as jurors.

Howard, president of the American Farm Bureau federation declared in @n address today at farmers week at Ohio State university here. “The agricultural conference called by President Harding last week showed | at the start a wind current toward th sonable doubt that Lampitt was re- sponsible for the bunkhouse crime. Fully as pertinent—possibly more convincing—however, are other facts Tecalled from the past by the Ohio Camp horror and Lampitt’s alleged connection therewith—facts which the state will attempt to put before the jury that is trying Lampitt. Prior to ten years ago Lampitt was & resident of Cody. He was noted there for om ingenuity in devising trap-guns with which to kill wild animals. Also he and'De.

The charge of shot struck him in the stomach and he was beyond ald when iis dying screams brought neighbors to his side. Lampttt was arrested on suspicion but ‘© was not sufficient evidence to convict and he was released. He was ® marked man thereafter, however. “nd soon left Cody, to remain in ob scurity until again brought spectacu larly to public attention by the Ohio Camp tragedy, so remarkably similar in many respects to that at Cody. It is the state’ contention that Lampitt, spurred by jealousy of Foight, planned to slay his rival with an infernal machine—an instrument of the variety of those for the inven tion of which he possessed gentus— and did so slay him, obtaining the ex. plosive necessary for the crime by burglarizing the camp magazine. It is the contention, further, that the alleged murderer hoped to avoid sus- picion, therefore did not flee after setting the infernal machine in opera tion, but made preparations for flight should suspicion fasten upon him, these preparations involving provision of the automobile load of sypplies found before his door. Flight, it is elieved, was prevented by the watch ®t upon Lampitt's home immediately after the explosion. Lampitt is being defended by the ablest counsel obtainable in the Bip Horn basin, undoubtedly highly paid the first move of these counsel was t obtain a change of venue from Ho’ Springs county to Big Horn county on the ground that public’ condemna tion of Lampitt in the former mad impossible a fair and tmpartial tria the Lampitt's alleged homicidal nania, The crime for which Lampitt faces «iath—against conviction 0’ which he is fighting desperately, doggedly, gamely — occurred the morning of April 7, 1924, at “Ohio Camp,” center of the Grass Creek oil field.
