Governor Koss has told the people of Hot Spring county that they must do a_ better fob of enforcing the liquor laws if they ex- pected him to cooperate in any further appro- priations for the state reserve embracing the great mineral hot springs. The governor was explicit enough to direct his remarks at the sheriff and prosecuting attorney of the county, suggesting that they resign or get busy. Hot Springs county is about on a par with beveral other counties in the matter of enforce- ment. No better and no worse. The county pos- sibly needs a cleaning up. So does Natrona coun- ty, so does Sheridan county and Big Horn and other counties, If the governor is dissatisfied about the matter, why should be pass the buck? ‘Why does he not remove from office the sher- iffs and county attorneys who are lax in en: forcing the laws? And then why make the appropriation of money for niMintenance of state property a pawn in the ‘matter of enforcing liquor laws? Does the gover- nor hope to get away with any such cheap threat? And when did. the governor become the whole thing in Wyoming? Is he running for the United Btates senate, or just running off at the mouth? There is no question that the liquor laws sought to be enforced, not alone in Hot Springs county but in every county in the state fnelud- ing the governor's home county of Laramie, which is not above suspicion of moonshining and bootleggmg. The governor is an exceutive, the chief one we believed, charged with enforcing the Inws of the state along with other gentlemen holding minor public offices. Would it not be in better taste for the gover- nor to remain at the executive offices in Chey- enne, and make some gesture in the general di- rection of enforcing liquor laws, himself, rather than junketing about the state merely indulging in conversation with respect to others? [The Constant Sacrifice When automobile fatalties occur at a distance nd we read the particulars in the newspaper we are not so impressed with the circumstances, because the persons involved and the victims are strangers to us. But when such matters are brought home to us by the slaughter of those we know and have seen only a few hours before, it is another story. It becomes terrible and we wonder if something cannot be done to save such calamities. During the month just closed five automobile fatalities occurred in Casper. It is idle to say these deaths were unavoidable, could not have been prevented by ordinary caution. They all could have been. Five valuable lives, among them several children, who had a right to live and become valuable citizens to their city and} state. Lives snuffed out by the haste of the modern juggernant. Tt is time wo asked one another what is to be done about it all. The same question is being asked all over the land. It is discussed and dis- cussed all over again, but we don’t seem to find the answer. ‘When something more appalling than usual occurs, when tho list of casualties, for the day, the week or the month tops previous records, | there is a rigid enforcing of such traffie laws} as exist and many citizens are brought to the poli¢e court for infractions of foolish ordinances | no one knew existed. After a few days of activ: | ity along this line, the public efforts ceases and things settle back to what may be called normal. Some how no one gets at the root of the auto- mobile traffic trouble and no one makes any ey suggestion to lessen the sacrifice of human ife. Can it be that authorities in charge of public streets and responsible for the protection of hu- man life have no appreciation of the duties and responsibilities of their positions, or have they given up hope of remedying the situation, and have decided to let things drift and trust to luck? Surely some plan can he devised whereby drivy- ers of cars and pedestrians and all others con- cerned “may have surer protection of their live: in the use of the public streets and street cro: ings. What is the answer to it all? Disturbing the Churchyard There is talk over the state abont resurrect- ing from a very penceful grave the Wyoming Press association, applying the pulmoter, and hop- ing for indications of life. This association has been dead a long while, in fact had a very pre- jpublishers, now as formerly is to fill up the ‘holes and pull the paper, while the daily breth- jren have pretty much the same job only some- |what more strenuous and confining. Of course J. E. can get away for a day or two by doing his work in advance, and possibly John Cook could leave Lander to its own devices for a brief spell, Clough of Douglas and Newton of Cody could tear themselves away in a pinch and attend such an august assemblage as an editorial convention. But all the rest we have knowledge of in Wyo- |ming are workmen on the job, and are only ab- sent from duty long enough to change shirts every séveral weeks and attend church every Sabbath morning. About the only faithful member of former times was A. J. Mokler. “Moke” always turned up at the gatherings and remained for the fes- tivities. Bill Chaplin was enthusiastic enough before the meeting time but was never there when the visitors’ list was signed. Same thing with Rill Deming, unless he was on the program for an address, which we believe occurred once, which was plenty. ‘When the show was within a day's travel of Buffalo, Hayden White would lend his presence and sometimes would insist upon making a jpeech, Possibly there has been enough new material come on the press of the state, since the Press Association last died to revive the thing. If it is done, these will have the job to do, for it will be pretty difficult to arouse any of the elders of the profession, who recall the discouraging struggles of other days too vividly to take more than passing interest. Let the boys whoop it up. Two Courses During the past few years we have heal a great deal about the superpower zone. There has been talk of generating as much of the elec- tricity used as the transmission problems will permit, in gigantic generating plants located right at the month of the mines. The super-power zone and the protective tariff may not seem to havé much in common but the arguments for each are base upon exactly the same basis. If the carrying of conl can be reduc- ed, then much useless work is eliminated and all of us get more for the efforts we put forth. In the same way if we manufacture all of our raw materials into finished products instead of exporting them we greatly increase their value, for each operation adds to the value and we have a larger and a more prosperous country. We are eliminating the waste which results from transporting the raw material over unnecessary distance. just as we ¢liminate waste in trans- porting coal over long distance when we gen- erate electricity at the mouth of the mine. America holds the unique position of being self supporting. There is practically nothing. in the way of raw material, that is not produced or found here. Either this is shipped out of the country and other nations make a profit in working it into finished products, including by- products, or it is worked up into a finished prod- uct here and we get all the profits. Let us go back to the case of coal. With our industries properly protected and each neces- sary industry developed to the maximum we would be able to use our coal to the very best advantage. Coal for example would be distilled and the gas and tar and other products separ- ated. The gas and coke would be used for heating purposes either directly or for genorating elec- tricity. The tar products would be manufactured into all the Mfferent kinds of coal tar chemicals. The ammonia products would be utilized. In short the coal would be conserved in the samo manner as the big packing houses conserve our meat supply by turning everything to the most useful and the most valuable purposes. However, allow any product made from coal to be imported into this country and it is im- possible to use our own coal to the very best advantage with the result that in the end we pay much more for what we get. The same prin- ciple holds in the case of practically all of our raw materials. We are still wasting by-products we might utilize to much better advantage if new industries were created. Only when these industries arc protected can they grow or pros- per. Distances in Wyoming are still magnificent | Cbe Casner Daily Cribune Telephone In, * é of It Operating Sulphur: Mine...

It was one of the definite assets of the Medicine Bow community and this entire re- gion regrets the necessity of the ac- tion taken by the state.

Snow has filed with the district court a petition asking for abate- ment of the nuisance known as the Alamo Hotel at Greybull. Tn his petition the county attorney| points to the bad record of the place under te managemont of C. Shomo, which he claims has contin-| ued over a period of two years, He! cites the fact that since last March! the sheriff has thrice raided the place and each time has made com- Plaint against the persons’ found in| possession of intoxicating Iquors. Frere is a home-made syrup which | millions people have found to be! the most dependable means of breal ing up stub It is cheap ; id romp It is just a case of reasoning along the same lines as the super-power enthusiasts reason. It is a matter of reducing wastes, of conserving that which we have. The moment we remove the protective tariff from any product we produce we are almost cer- tain to introduce a waste somewhere, It may be in a direction we would hardly look for it. The ordinary person hardly gave a thought to the coal, gas or coke business when we were buying all our dyes from Germany, but buying foreign dyes made all these industries more wasteful than they would be with the dye industry very highly developed. $ Free-trade means the maximum of waste. Full and complete protection means the maximum of conservation. We would never be able to con- serve our resources under free-trade for the very simple reason that we would never be able. to use each product and each by-product to the very best advantage. We would have to buy where we could buy cheapest and sell where we could sell highest and there would be no room left for finding ways and means of getting the utmost out of each and everything that we possess. No advocate of conservation can be consistent and at the same time be a believer in free-trade. If we lacked many of the raw materials required to carry on production, he might have a leg to stand on, but conservation, especially as preach- ed by the super-power advocates, implies that manufacture be carried on as near as possible to the source of raw material and this means that we make our raw material into finished products. If we did this in all cages there would be very few finished products we would be im-| carious existence previous to passing out. We recall a few meetings at different towns in the! state, and some notable addresses about the low $ porting, aside from public speeches, diamonds, and the other articles of luxury the protective tariff enables us to afford. | Chandler Filling Station i healing, soothing fa i reness goes, becomes easier, a ual throa! grad by it {i i fothing better for bronchitis ra rouchial asthma or winter coughs.

What Became of the Peddler? & Even in remote regions, the once-familiar figure of the peddler is rarely seen. In the cities the brass-lunged huckster has practically disappeared. Advertising has banished those outworn hangers-on of . trade. Through advertisements, women learned discon- ; : tent with the limited choice offered by the peddler’s pack and the huckster’s cart. ‘Advertising teaches us to be more exact in judging “ values; to require things to measure up to better stand- ards; to make better use of every cent we spend. Advertising has done away with haphazard choosing by. showing how wide and precise a choice you really can : ; have. Haphazard buying is going the same route.
