CASPER RODEO ADVERTISED ON ADA TOUR Clarence Bell Springs Surprise by Returning With Bride. A trip of 35 days through states in the east by Clarence Bell of the Casper Rodeo association ended not only in considerable advertising for the Rodeo which will be held in Cas- per August 1 to 5 but aso resulted in the marriage of Mr. Bell to Miss Vivian Veilleux which took place in St Paul, Minn., when the Rodeo Tepresentative stopped off there. ‘The bride ana groom returned to Casper last night and are busily en- waged today in secking a suitable apartment in which to make their residence.

He went through eastern Wyoming, Nebraska, Iowa, Minnesota, the Da- kotas, and back through the Black Hills and western Nebraska. Mr. Bell reports that he was well recetved along the line and that the cities in the different states visited are quite willing to support the big events which will taxe place in Cas- per. It was tho intention of Mr. Bell after returning to Casper to make another trip into the southwest, but the closeness of the date on which the Rodeo will be staged prob- ably will mean the cang-"'m@ ~¢ this o~.

The measure for the protection of state water rights as passed by the house and sent to the senate provides for Wyoming representation on a proposed commission representing the states and the federal government, charged with arriving at an under- standing regarding appropriation of the waters of the North Platte and other streams originating in or flow- ing through Wyoming. The bill also provides for the ap- pointment of legal counsel to protect Wyoming interest in the waters of such streams and carries an ap- propriation of $25,000. This program was worked out Tuesday at a conference held in the office of Governor Ross at which lead- ers of both houses of the legislature were present. Representative J. C. Underwood, republican leader of the TURE ADJOUR Wyoming Representation on Commission To Reach Understanding on Water Rights Is Provided by Act Co DETROIT, Mich., July 18.—Babe senate, Simon of Basin attempted to reduce from $25,000 to $15,000 the appropriation to be used in defending this state's rights to the use of its rivers.

Both houses have the ap- propriations act providing for the ex- penses of the session, including per diem for the legislators. NEW COMMISSION TO EMBRACE WEST. CHEYENNE, Wyo., July 18.—The much discussed Colorado river com- pact, which, if finally ratified, will provide the first instance of as many as seven states getting together and amicably settling the question of their respective rights to the water in a basin embracing the entire southwest, promises to be put to shade in comparison with a move- ment started here Wednesday by the Wyoming legislature. ‘The lower house voted unan!mous- ly last evening and the upper house seconded the action by the same vote today, for a bill providing for a com- mission that would adjudicate the disputes now existing and that will come up from time to time regard- ing the waters of the entire western half of the United States. If the other states agree to take part in this effort, the biggest undertaking of its kind ever attempted will be the result. This is the “watershed of the con- dinent.” Rivers originating in this ‘state find their way to both the At- lantic and the Paciflo, or, more spe- cifically to the Gulf of Mexico, the Gulf of California and Puget Sound.
