AG r PAGE SIX Historian Pioneer ae Neves Points to Pro- gressive People Who Made City Possible; Bootleggers Should Be Jailed. By A. J. MOKLER In the past thirty years Casper has grown from a typical frontier town of less than 500 population to a beautiful modern city of nearly 35,000. In the early days the peo- ple here were a little group of kindred spirits living almost out of reach of the big world—like a people in a wilder- The pioneers ¢ ame out here to rec laim an axid coun- ness. the cattle men ‘and d the cattlemen and © sheepmen and some times there was some shooting, but nothing very serious ever happened in Natrona It was over in Johnson in the Hole-tn-the-Wall coun- ‘© most of the trouble oc- per has always been quite lib- ate government of affairs, lawful to gamble there were no keys at ¢ ou uppe i sell whiskey, c et the doors of the saloons. It may words and ania & | be said that {t was a wide open town, during rennet but not any more so than {t {s in ted obligations |; of reform and prohibition. The whiskey sold by the lcensed of Casper before the adop- id, a kt ow tion of the Eighteenth Amendment Federal Constitution was the © article, and while it caused {t was not like the moon- leg etuff that is now being e streets and dished ind pig" joints, which kills the people who drink it, blinds them or burns thelr in- testines to a crisp, and deadens their x and body and incapacitates for business and unfits them as and women to. bring children he world and rear a family. ng the licensed saloons we to have in Casper there were eral who handled a pecullar brand er sey theate ‘ ey | of Whiskey, but the very worst of places Qi , it could not be compared to the have t urches, | fn®| poisonous stuff that {s now. being stores and d office buildings, | distributed ‘here, which has caused ut tre did have the free open ‘co ;| Several deaths among our people. The streams had of the saloons-here in the early t made'a specialty of its “fist = {4 risk and tt. was « drin 8 of it would put a r i ition. that now re- quires a professional pug fully four months of hard training to acquire. The fights we used to have by the men who’ partook of this particular brand of goods were equal in skill to the manly art and furnished en- tertainment for the residents fully ta to go out and bri as much as have the fights that we le carefully | nave had under the auspices of some them, and of our worthy and respectable or- r the srow-| ganizations, The fights in the early and they always . 1 pres tetera tte days, like the whiskey, was the put out th r Ires before they | renuine article, but in. these days left camry : ; jy | they. are most always fixed and "7 pleliis uel towers |*#Ked.’ In the early days, after the summer mont fo 4 trag- | Cntertainment was over, an_ officer would pour thelr beauty and fr | conveniently made his appearance rance on the t expanse equal, | 224 the participants were taken ‘be tod. not eq fore the police judge and each of the law breakers made a, liberal con- tribution to the school fund. Ne adays the fighters are paid for thelr exhibitions, and they don't get bunged up a fourth as much as the old-style fighters used to, In 1910 there was a man who was working on the V-V ranch who came to town F: every three«months and r noney and after elf, hi a few days and Aghtir most of his & whiskey atisfied him- ’ rr & i ould lend him r to pay bis fine, and ™ ’ he would do when he ® ame to town the next quarter was s , to pay the debt.

There was another asloon that handled a brand of goods that made @ man feel that he was a million aire when he had acquired a suf. ficlent amount of {it to make him wobble in the legs. This was the most popular resort in town, and I have known men to be elevated from strict poverty to great afflu- ence within two hours, and all they did to acquire their great fortunes was to’ “mooch” half a dozen drinks from. some of the men who had come to town to spend their money When they seemed to be at the ve height of their glory and the pe: thelr fortunes the wn generally came along and escorted them to the lodgement where their fighting and singing companions slumbered, ang In the cold, gray morning their disillusionment came, Their millions had faded awuy with thelr dreams. They had iran ar to their poor and humble s and they had not even the 5 that the. stern and relentless juc as sessed them that would add a little hool dts. of pa- bit more to fund of the ac’ trict. I: might say (by way renthesis) that the judge in those days turned the fines over to the school district, but now-a-days they, according to newspaper reports, keep not only the fines but about everything else they can gat hold of. Under the law the saloons were not permitted to sell intoxfcating Mquors to a person vnder 21 years of age, and it’may be eaid to the credit of the saloonkeepers they did not’ allow’ minors to come into their Places of busine: But now?
