On Streets or at Newstands, & cents Delivered by Carrier 75 cents a month TO END TONIGHT Voters Will! Be Eligible To Vote At Polls THE HIGH COST OF ROSE — Editor Tribune: I have been in attendance as a juryman on the regular panel for the September term,of coprt in Na- trona county, being called here originally September 15. My ranch is 55 miles from Casper. Anticipating that I would serve on the jury, I made arrangements for extra help at the ranch, and was prepared to attend on the 15th. Before I reached Casper, I was notified that the jury would be required to re- port again on the 25th of September. In the mean time, I could not dispense with extra help and reported again on the 26th. I was in attendance from the 25th of September until the 18th of October. I wa's then excused until the 28th of Oc- tober. Owing to the long distance from my ranch and the muddy condition of the roads, I am obliged to stay in sper during the interval. While in attendance, we have had various judges presiding for one week at a time, at a big expense to the state inasmuch as I understand that the state not only pays the salary and expenses of the local judge, but also the traveling and other expenses of the non-resident judge and his reporter. I am entirely willing to perform my duty as a citizen and a jurar, but do not believe that the jurymen should be called upon to.make unnecessary, sacrifices. This condition has been not only a serious inconvenience to us stockmen, refinery work- ers, and ‘business men, but has disarranged our business and employment to our serious detriment. So long as it is necessary to perform our duty as citizeng and jiurymen, I do not feel that we haye any right to object} but when this. condition is the re: ‘of our presiding judge canvassing the state in behalf\ of. rsonal candidacy for the United States senate, while draw _Salary from the state I feel that the people should know Wiiat the facts are in the case. si I am one of the substantial taxpayers in this county and do not feel like sacrificing my own business and at the same time footing the bill in extra taxes, without a protest. I un- derstand that when the local bar requested Judge Rose to not resign, it was with the idea in view that the September docket was a heavy one and that by Judge Rose remaining on the bench it would be cleared up promptly. I have read public advertisements and heard of public ut- terances: from ates Rose, in which.he questions the integrity of our resentatives in gress.
