In its latest issue the Pioneer says: “After careful consideration of the best interests | of the state of Wyoming and the Republican party, the Pioneer has decided to join the numerous other Republican newspapers of the state in support ot| the candidacy of Jahn W. Hay for governor before the primaries, August 22. We have been infitenced in our determination by the fact that the cost of state government in Wyoming has steadily grown through several administrations. It is now out of reason and proportion with the business annually transacted. Boards and commissions have been created to do the work that were better and more and economical state government. Pon @go sound Democrats stood with the Kepublicans to stamp out such assaults upon fundamental Ameri- can constitutional principles so it begins to look as if they would have to do it again. It is not that Frank W. Mondell represents Republican doctrines | and positions, but over and above that, that he is | the candidate who stands fot all that is safe, sane, sound and best in American life. while against him | is a man who has the endorsement of the forces that would either abridge or destroy the backbone principles of all constitutional government. That such was the ¢ase has been felt for a long time, but the Douglas convention has precipitdted mat- ters and cleared the atmosphere and now the issue ix drawn. It is Mondell on the one hand repre senting American principles, and Kendrick on the other backed by all the forces that would destroy. and pull them dewn.—Laramie Republican. With Promptness and Intelligence HAIRMAN ADAMS, o& the Republican national committee, is well within the record when he says that the Republican administration tackled the reconstruction problem promptly. They quickly passed the budget bill, which President Wilson had vetoed, and thus paved the way for administrative | economy. They passed emergency measures for the relief of agriculture, and got started on the up-/ rade once more. They reduced expenditures and re- duced taxes. They put the railroads back into pri- vate management, negotiated peace and limitation of armaments treaties, checked immigration, brought Liberty bonds back to par, reduced interest rates, and gave new conficcace to all lines of business. Mr. Adams. might truthfully have made his as- sertion a little stronger. sue mepuolicans nov only tackled reconstruction problems promptly, but they tried to tackle them in advance. It is a matter of record that before the armistice was signed, or before the armistice was thought near, Senator John W. Weeks in the senate and Representative Madden in the house introduced carefully drawn plans for the creation of a com-} mission on reconstruction, giving the Democrats a dominant voice on the commission, ay they were then in power in congress. The Weeks,Madden scheme was one of the most comprehensive plans for after-war reconstruction that could have been de- vised. It proposed to prepare in advance for every problem that would be encountered when peace should come. The-resolution had the approval of all the Republicans and many of the Democrats but it was defeated at the urgent demand of Presi- dent Wilson. Either intense partisanship or the un-| yielding determination to perpetuate one-man gov-! ernment resulted in the nation losing the advan- tege of preliminary preparations’ for the peace which was sure to come. The benefits of far-sighted Republican statesmankhip were deferred until the voters could have an opportunity to change the political complexion of the congress and the execu- tive branch of the government.

Ship-| ments will begin to arrive early in August. | This is a situation that no American will take a great deal of pride in. It is unfortunate that a coal strike is pending in this country. It is also unfortunate that winter is approaching and a fuel famine is impending. It is a further unfortunate thing that coal is sorely needed for manufacturing purposes. However, in all these circumstances the public still has faith in the good sense and reasonableness of the miners and operators that they will, before suffering overtakes us, arfive at a satisfactory agree- ment and start the wheels of industry in motion. What a Kendrick Vote Means {PEE ACTION of the Douglas cofifeteniée of so- called progressives and non-partisans in endors- ing Senator Kendrick makes the issue between that gentleman and Mr. Mondell-a very clear cut one, for unless Senator Kendrick fopudlinten this Doug- Jas endorsement it means that he stands for all the isms and vagaries which there received the heartiest of approval. To mention one of these aloné is suffi- cient. The Douglas meeting voted in favor of se curing a constitutional amendment providing that all acts of the legislature be binding and incapa- ble of being set aside by the courts. Do yon réalise| what that means? Do you realize that such a propo- sition is nothing more nor less thah a deliberate assault on the powers and functions of the courts? It is aimed at the destruction of one of the founda- tion principles of all American constitutional gor- ermment—the principle of balances and chetks, which the division of the functions of our govern- ment into three great heads provided for. The functions of each of these three branches, the legis- Jative, the executive and the judicial, were meant to be separate and distinct, and any attempt to over- throw one by allowing either of the other two to} usurp its powers is fundamentally wrong, and should be fought tooth and nail by every béliever in American constitutional governnient. It is this very selfsame thing that Senator LaFollette is ad- , and against which all the great lenders! t and the leading papers of the country | yed themselves. This sort of stuff is no more Temocratic doctrine than it is Republican. Tt is nothing more nor less than popniistic heresies revived and revamped. Just as twenty-five yenrs | unrecedented demands for our products, checked that law, he will find that with the removal of the pro- tective tariffs, our imports increased and our ex- ports decreased until the balance of trade turned against us. For several months prior to the out: break of the war in Europe, we were buying abroad more than we were selling, and in addition we were paying European countries for ocean transportation, for marine insurance, for tourist expenses, and divi- dends on securities. That was why American in- dustry broke down in 1914. Nothing but the ont- break of the war, cutting off imports and creating destructive trend of trade. It is true that under a protective tariff, the balance has been in our favor, but it cannot be in our favor, in normal times, un- der a Democratic tariff “for revenue only.” Hughes to Be Present ‘JT IS REPORTED that Secretary Hughes will at tend the Brazilian Exposition and that he has also displayed some interest in seeing the Tacna- Arica controversy between Chile and Peru to a fin- ish when it is again taken up in one or the other country. If Secretary Hughes can be spared from this country at that time, his presence in the Latin- American countries will leud great influence to the prestige of the United States in a quarter of the globe where foreign propaganda has been doing much in recent years to injure the esteem in which we would like to be held. It is some years now since Elihu Root made his memorable visit to South America and the influence of that visit has been felt to the present day, par- ticularly in Brazil, a nation which we count among our firmest friends. Hughes possesses a rare per- sonality and a force of character which would largely dissipate the suspicion in which we are held by some of the Latin-Americans whose daily literary diet of affairs in the United States is not calculated to impress them in our favor, thanks to a few poisoned-pen wielders who are paid to blacken the character of this nation. It is a trip worth taking. Slow Headway (PANES to the Democratic filibuster the United States senate is half way through the tariff bill after three months of time-killing debate by the op- position. If the Democrats can keep that up the bill will be yoted on as a whole late in October, and then they may be &ble to hold it up andther month or 80 aftér it goes to conference. But the voters know pretty well by this time where the responsi- bility lies for delay in passing the measure, A Chief Problem \ QaEr JUSTICE TAFT returns and reports that the corner. has been turned in British trade con- ditions, that “British business men showed a strong spirit of ae and were attacking post-war problems with great courage nnd industry.” One of the problems seems to be how to Cyan the United States congress from passing a ship sublaldy bill which will perpetuate the American merchant marine. everybody's friend. He was known far and wide over the city.. His un- timely death brought sorrow to young and old alfke because his going leaves 4 vacancy that will not soon be filled. “Bull” was his name and his home was at the city postoffice. There have been many touching dog stories told and written. in rhyme the virtues of the dog and called him man's best and most faith: ful friend. Orators have etilogized the dog and brought tears to the eyes of hearers when reciting tho noble and brave acts performed by dogd. All good and brave men love dogs because of their faithfulness. It is therefore not to be wondered at that. the eulogy of this par- ticular dog should be written by a hero of the great war, a boy who served on the front in the Argcnne an@ stood tn line, when comrades fell upon all sides, and went forward to his duty unafraid. A man of this type loves a dog. He is qualified to say the last words respecting so faith. ful a friend as “Bull was in his lite- time.

He had a host of friends, but characteristic of a bull dog, he had one master,.and that was “Dad” Weston, who raised him from his puppy days, but he always mide friends with everybody with whom he come in contact, and would greet them In the most affectionate man- ner. At the postoffice he would spend his days, and at night would go down to the Burlington stagion with the mail, and would enter the private of- fice with all the dignity of a dog. Ho was welcomed by all the Burlington force, and was known among all the railroad men. He would watch the mail put on the train, and after the train would depart would keep the operator company for the rest of the night. He always wanted to play and Was fond of children, especially little He would lick thelr faces and wrestle with them but never be rough.

So “Bull"’| | Another Old Timer Colonel Stokes’ reminiscences of Prospecting for gold in the Black Hills and his referefences to the Jenney ex- pedition recall to my mind the very narrow margin by which Professor Jenney and his associates missed the greatest find in the history of gold mining. =~ Gold in that region was discovered June 27, 1874, on the present site of Custer City, 8. D., along French creek by Horace N. Ross, a professional miner, who accompanied General Cus ter’s expedition of that year. Profes- sor Walter P. Jenney was the geolog- ist sent by the government at Wash- ington the following year to check up the military reconnaissance of the Black Hills and reort upon their pros- pective value as a mining proposition. After his. expedition disbanded at Cheyenne in 1875 Jenney returned to Washington via Denver, where by charice I saw the young man’s note- book and heard him talk. Recently after a lapse of nearly fifty years, ‘ip looking over his “Geology of the Black Hills" in the New York Public library, T recognized some of those notes, elaborated of course. On pages 279 and 230:eppears a statement that makes very interesting reading in the light of. subsequent developments: “Bare butte dreins the northeast Black Hills, heading near Terry's Peak, The éast fork is known as White wood creek. Whitewood unitst with Deadwood creek, west of Terry's Peak, thus forming a swift stream of 300 niiner’s inch ut his wate? sinks e short distano below the forks, and the joint creek bed continues dry throug tho lime- stone to the plains. The Whitewood was explored by the topographical party only for want of time.and suit. able property to prospect the stream.” I clearly recall hearing Professor Jenney say in the editoral room if the’ Denver Tribune that the presence of Umestone on Whitewood erdek made him doubtful of any gold being there, it being almost an axiom among min ers that Jimestong and gold are never known to mix. Well, had Tom Mal- lory and Bottsford explored that tri- angle formed by Whitewood and Dead- wood erseks, instead of the mapmak- ing topographers, the history of the Homesteke mine would have been very «ifferent. Jenney just missed ho richest mile of gold. bear- FAMILY PRIDE in owning a Marmon is due to a man’s appreciation of its economy and depend- ability and a woman's appreciation of its distinction and comfort.
