Several of them have never been conquered and others have a reputation of being “man eaters.” With big purses offered for the bucking contest, Casper will at- tract the crack riders of the coun- try for the rodeo. The riding here should be the equal of any staged in the country from Frontier Days to the Pendleton Roundup. In addition to the horses, several cars of Mexican cattle are to be on hand for the steer roping, wild steer yiding and similar events. ‘These animals, direct from the prairies of old Mexico, are strong and rough and will give the cow: boys a husky tussle before being conquered. The Casper Rodeo, August 1 to 5 inclusive, promises to be the big event of the summer in Casper.

SUGGESTS RURAL STRIKE Jonathan Davis, of Kansas, May Call Meeting for Wheat Farmer “Walk-Out” BY EDWARD C. DERR United Press Staff Correspondent, CHICAGO, July 14.—Jonathan M. Davis, governor of Kansas, tonight proposed a selling strike of wheat growers to force higher prices. Davis told the United Press he was considering calling a conference of governors to make such a strike gen- eral throughout the great wheat pro- ducing states of the middle west. “It farmers sell their wheat now at the ridiculously low figure they are offered, they will lose from 5 to 10 cents on every bushel ‘they har- vest,” Davis asserted. “The only way the farmer can fight for a fair price is to store his wheat and refuse to Bell it until he gets price that is just. “The miller, the baker, the retailer —they all must make a profit on wheat, yet the farmer is expected to labor throughout the year to produce wheat at a loss.” - Davis, a “dirt farmer’ governor, said he intended to see that the farmer was given a square deal. “I would go ahead and call a strike of Kansas wheat growers tomorrow but that would be folly because the other states would go ahead and sell their crops and woe would be in the hole, What I am considering is a gen- eral strike throughout the middle west,"’ the governor said. Farmers work iong hours, have few comforts, no luxuries, and are ex- pected to do it at a loss so that others can profit. That idea must be killed. Davis said there was no reason for continued low wheat prices, “Crop reports and rumors of enor. mous yields float above the pits in the grain exchanges and immediately the farmer {s told he must be satisfied with less money for his wheat,” Davis said, Wheat prices struck new record lows today on the Chicago board of trad¢, All future deliveries gold at the lowest prices since 1914) Prices were.

This {s the opinion of all those who attended the trip. The recepticn received at the different towns irrespective of their size was such as to prove the unden- iable success of the expedition. Casper as a jobbing center, as a metropolis on which all eyes are turned, and to which all business is directed—this idea received further development along the tour and its attainment became assured. No summary of the events could possibly do justice to the significance of the trip nor could any deselption of the entertainment offered, by the people of northern and northwestern Wyoming approach any proximity to, the great hospitality. which was of-| fered the Casper boosters, ‘The Casper men did not try to sell anything on the trip except as they tried to sell Casper and Wyoming as a whole to Wyomingites. The great importance of trading within the state whenover possible was brought before the thousands of persons the boosters met. In no case was the stand taken by Casper the subject of argument, “Trade with us and we will trade with you.” This was the slogan in substance which was adapt- ed. It is a slogan that will result in the betterment of Wyoming busi- ness generally, ‘Money kept in Wyoming is turned into industries thar bring profit to Wyoming and thiq profit in turn means higher valuation of property and greater funds with which to im: prove the institutoins of the state,’ said one member of the touring party. The sentiment that was expressed by the residents df Buffalo, Basin, Greybull, Thermopolis, Riverton, Lan- der and other towns viaited assured the Casperites that whenever Casper affords a market for produce from this section of the country, she would be able to secure it and that when the Inhabitants of this section had some- thing to buy that could be obtained in the hub of Wyoming they would buy It here. There were only two grocery and fruit'jobbers on the tour while as a matter of fact there are seven in Cas- per. Since such a booster excursion will net such great results to these men it is held probable that the next trip will incluce more of men who handle these lines of goods, The party left Lander this morn- ing for Casper, stopping fipst at the Wyoming Home for Defectives. Here Dr. D. F. Jones superintendent, gra- lcously received the guests and show- ea them over the institution, Miss Helen Petersdorf, educational direc- tor put several af the children through their drills and they con- cluded their program with some songs. Dr. Jones explained the need of the institution for new improvements, es- pecially a new dairy barn, at the pres- ent time, There are 138 patients in the home who range from 3 to 85 years of age.

THE WRITING ON THE WALL JOHNSON RULES FAVORITE FOR MINN. SENATOR Election Represent Test of Harding, Who Favors Goy. Preus ST. PAUL, Minn., July 14.—(United Press.)}—The closest United States senatorial race of a decade will ter- minate in Minnesota Monday when voters select a successor to the late Knute Nelson, the “grand old man of the northwest.” Hlectors will have these candidates to pick from. Betting tonight favored Magnus Johnson, farmer-labor party nominee, whose principal ehitracter-_ istics are a voice louder than any | ever heard in the national | upper house, @ pair of checkered suspenders he snaps excitedly when talking, and a Swedish brogue. His followers predict his election by 40,000 to 50,000 margin. His follow- ers are Uberals; he admits it and de clared in a final statement that Inasmuch as the government needs reforming he is going to do it. Were it not for the unusual polf- tical situation in Minnesota, Gov- ernor Jacob Al Otteson Preus, a Scandinavian and schooled politician, would easily be elected. Despite! party wrangles, Charles B. Adams, state republican chairman, predicted the election of the governor—the re- publican national administration can- didate—by a “small majority". The election represents a test of President Harding's rule in the west. Harding has asked Minnesota voters to elect Preus. If the electorate re: ufses it will be a blow to national politics, The balloting will also show whether the farmers, claiming that they are not getting a square deal politically can make their power felt | as a unit. If they elect Johnson, it will be conceded that they can, and may result, political leaders believe, | in a sudden awakening in congress to farmer legislation needs, Despite the fecling that State Sena- tor James A, Carley, democratic nominee, has no chance to be elect- ed, John B, Donahue, democratic chairman, predicted his election by 10,000 to 20,000, He thinks the peo- ple will refuse to vote for “the lesser | of two evils''—Johnson or Preus— and elect the democrat, A prominent political observer to- night declared that the revolt in the| democratic party has become serious and that Johnson may get « plurality of 560,000 to 100,000, Johnson's platform includes equal- ity of men and women in politics and, industry; nationalization and develop ment of water power; a “square deal for the federal trade commission. fed: eral aid for wheat farmers; restriction of court injunetions in labor, disputes and the “busting” of all trusts, Preus {8 adyocating the accom: plishment of the Harding disarma- ment progress; a world court for in- ternational peace; stabfiization of farm product prices; completion of the St, Lawrense-Takes waterway; co-operative marketing fov farmers and reduced taxation, $200,000 Gems Stolen In Hotel | DEHTROIP, Mich, July 14, — Dia- ‘monds valued at $200,000 were stolen 'from Joseph Leudan, jeweiry sales-| ‘man, in his room at a fashionab'e} {hotel tonight, | The robbers entered the room in a} mysterious manner, Leudan reported | to police and jumping from ehind, | threw a sack over his head, forced G Hand le 5a000 in 1925 ?
