One of the new charters, four of which were received by J. W. Miller, secretary of the Mooseheart Legion here yesterday, is a general charter for the entire state. The three other charters are special charters which place the Casper, Lara- mie and Cheyenne lodges beyond the pale of government by a state Moose organization. The special charters were issued because of pressure exert ed by Mr. Miller to accomplish a sys tem of local government for the mos‘ ters were issued to Powder River Le- gion, Branch No. 1, Casper; Laramie Legion, Branch No. 2 Laramie; Chey- enne Legion No. 3.
