HIGH TRIBUNAL WILL BE ASKED FOR DECISION Honorable Eugene born in Derry, N. H., Nov. 22, i. ef poor but honest Irish parents When he was a child four years of age, his father died, and during the struggle incident to the raising of a family Eugene was of great assist- ance to his mother. His New Eng- land schooling was rather meager, but he managed to gain the rudi ments of an education In the public J. Spl schools of New Hampshire. In 1892 M he moved to Omaha, Neb., and im- school, graduating in 1895. In Oma- ha he learned much relating to the Rocky Mountain region, and he de- cided to cast his lot with the people of Wyoming. He became interested in the Big Horn Basin Development company, then constructing a canal on the Greybull river at what ts now Germania. That was in 1896. He was active in the enlargemont of the company and the construction of the Oregon Basin project in 1898, from which time he has been a resi- dent of Wyoming. At first he took up his residence in Cody; afterward at the time of the division of Big Horn county by the formation of Park county, he removed to Basin and continued the work of drainage on the Bench canal 2t Germania, where he pwns to this day a consid- erable tract of land, In 1893 he was elected a member of the legislature, and, owing to his keen. knowledge of parliamentary practice, he was bie “t9 ae uy Hoan floot leader of, Those who recall tet a sora the historic session remember the con- summate skill and courtesy with which he performed the duties of his important office.

CHEYENNE, Wyo., Oct. 15.—It is regarded here as inevitable that the question of the legality of the guber- natorial election planned for November 4 must be taken to the supreme court, it not before the election, afterward, inasmuch us 80 long as there is a question of legality involved no act of the gov- ernur chosen November 4 may be regarded as_legal’ until 2 supreme court ruling has been had. In the lght of many opinions already issued in connection with the election by all those most nearly concerned it is not considered prob- able that anything But a favorable’ “the omanner ” re- turned by the high tribunal. If the question is raised before the election, the procedure probably will be to seek an injunction re- straining the secretary of state from certifying to the county clerks, for inclusion in the ballot, the names of the nominees for the gov- ernorship; if it is raised after the election, the procedure probably will be to seek an injunction restraining the state canvassing board from issuing a certificate of election to the candidate receiving the highest vote November 4.

MAN FINED IN POLICE COURT WINS CN APPEAL ‘The case which the city of Casper had against Bojack Rohn, charged with resisting an officer, was dis- milrsed by Judge C. O. Brown in dis- trict court yesterday afternoon. Rohn had been arrested last July by Officer W. A. Baker When the patrolman was called to a house by a telephone call. A woman stated that Rohn was beating her. When Baker arrived Rohn refused to ac- company him to the police station and was persuaded by force only, it is said.
