He said: “T am sorry to inform the house that on yesterday we lost another of our old time citizens Mr. I. 8. Bartlett. Mr. Bartlett was one of those men we do not know a great deal about because | he spent most of his time in quiet | obscurity. He was a veteran of the Civil War and in the early days came to the State of Wyoming. He discovered the Hartville Iron mines and spent the latter part of his life in the newspaper business. He was a bold and fearless writer and hon- est in all of his writings. I think that this body should take advan- tage of the last chance that we have of paying tribute to the memory of an old time citizen and that a com: mittee from this. body. attend his funeral and suitable floral offer- ings be sent. “Because of his work as a news- paper writer I am- anxious to pay this tribute to him. Féw of us realize what the newspapers have done for the State of Wyoming. The men who have devoted their lives to this work have moulded public sentiment to a great extent and while they do things that we criticise freely, sel- dom is due credit given to them. Mr. Bartlett was one of’ those men, we can always look back to wit pride and admiration. Representation Brough of Ui (Continued on Page.
