Governor Warren's Report on the Re-
sources ( the New State

Governor Warren's Report on the Re-
sources 4 the New State.
WASHINGTON, October Ali in his an
nual report, Governor Warren estimates
the population of Wyoming at something
in excess of IS 600. These figures were
furnished by the Census Supervisor, but
the Governor is of the opinion that they do
not represent the entire population, owing
to the difficulty in taking the census in
such q limited time. The assessed yalu-
alton of taxable property in the State is
$50 665 400, which the report states is not
more than one-third the actual value.
There is a cash balance in the Treasury of
1914 Oh, and q bonded indebtedness OF
1920 COO
The Governor says the number of cattle
in the State is about the same as last year,
but there are fewer large herds and many
more smaller ones. The coal mines and
oil wells, of which there are many, are
being worked to advantage.
The Governor recommends that the APP
preparation for surveys of public lands be
increased, and that Congress take measures
to utilize the waste waters of the noun
tain streams in providing storage reser-
voirs; that the State be donated its arid
lands, and authority be granted to tax per.
sons occupying Indian reservations and
that the Counts be authorized to try and
punish white men for offenses against the
State laws when committed on Indian
reservations.
