From the New York Sun.
We have never been able to understand
why it is that nearly oil the women OF
Wyoming vote the Republican ticket at
every election and thus give the state TO
that distracted party. II it wers not FOR
the man voters IN the state there would
hardly bo a streak OF Democracy bstween
the Big Horn Mountains aud Green River
City. Another thing: TIA woman were
elected to the Office Of Governor OF Wyo
ralng would she be spoken Of as a Gov
erness7 She would not; not By gram
marians 10 Wyoming or elsewhers. The
word governor is not masculine noun
nor. for that matter, is the word prssi
dent. A man cannot be q gOverness. but
woman can be governor, as plenty Of
men know. 80 far as lsnRuoge Is con
cerned, therefore a wcman may yet be
the governor OF Wyoming or any other
state We should emile Il our Cheyenne
