THE CASE OF CHANCELLOR AN
DREWS.

The big war in the orient is hardly
less interesting than a merry little var
that is going on in Nebraska between
DR.. E. benjamin Andrews of the Uni
versity Of Nebraska on one side. and
the populist political element on the
other.
DR.. Andrews started the war when
he asked MI. Rockefeller for a dona-
ton to the university. MI. Rockefeller
promised to give %two-thirds of $780,
900 il the people Of the state would
make up the remainder. DIR. Andrews
has set about securing the balance, and
as a result he is being alternately
praised and blamed. His critics say
that Mr.. Rockefeller's money should
not be accepted, while others say that
as long as Mr. Rockefeller is giving
away his money Nebraska ought to get
its share. Dr.. Andrews is determined
upon the latter course, and has organ.

MI. CHATTERTON DOOMED IN BIG
HORN.

A correspondent signing himself "Ob-
server" gives Gov. Chatterton the big.
gest kind Of a send-off in the Big Horn
County News. He is Of the opinion
that the north and the west will be for
the present executive and that he is
the popular choice Of the people. This
Is the nice way in which observer
talks.
He has made the best governor we
nave ever had, and has shown his free
dom from class or sectional bias. his
zeal for the promotion and advance
ment Of the state as a whole. and a
wonderful strength Of character-most
admirable traits in a governor. Only
q short time g the state press was
loudly praising him for his efficiency,
and even now the papers who favor
other candidates have not found a sim
gle criticism of his official conduct.
Their only objection to him is be-
cause his nomination would lead to
serious complications"
observer neutralizes the effect of
his good words for Governor Chatter
ton by making the following acrimon-
icus fling at Mr. Brooks:
"A word about Mr.. Brooks. He Is a
good man, an old resident n a sue
cessful business man He has never
held public Office, but it isn't his fault.
for to my certain knowledge he has
been asking for ONCE for the last
twelve years, but has always been re-
fused. 1t looks to me as If there must
be some doubt about his ability-some
skeleton in the political pantry-or he
would have been recognized before
this. Maybe not, maybe so. Anyway.
I regard it as a very unsafe proposition
to turn down as competent al official
as Chatterton for a man like Brooks.
who has been tried"
In closing observer" favors an in
structed delegation from Big Horn. in
the following language:
Il favor an instructed delegation
from Big Horn county. In view of the
debt Of gratitude we owe our present
governor for timely interference in our
behalf. and for splendid service. for his
recognition Of the northern part of the
state, l move we instruct our delega-
ton to vote solid for Fenimore Chat
terton for governor. We will not be
alone in this 1 feel sure several coun-
ties will be with US and there is time
to hear from others before the con-
vention. Chatterton can count on Big

Value Of High Bounty

The value of high bounty is plainly
evident in the territory covered by the
West Big Horn Stockmen's associa-
ton. For years they have been pay
ing a higher bounty than any other
section of the state, and have gone
down in their pockets to meet all de-
mands with good money. 1t has been
rather b~urdensome at times, but now
the wisdom of this course Is evident.
The statement is made today that this
territory has less wolves than any 9TH
er similar district in the state. What
this means is best understood when
it is realized that from nearly every
other quarter in Wyoming comes the
complaint that these animals are in
creasing despite the bounties paid.
Outside of that paid by the association,
We believe $50 is the highest bounty
paid. By our offering $50, trappers
and experienced wolfers are attracted
to the district, by the large reward,
and the result is Br'er Wolf is getting
mighty scarce in these parts. The
stockmen OF this district are to be COM
mended for their determined effort to
free us from the pests, and as long as
the present bounty is maintained it is
safe to say we will be comparatively
free from the depredations of these
animals.-Big Horn County News.

Foaci6lE AND ELOQUENT
ADDRESS At CbEYENk

President Charles Willard Lewis Of
the state university delivered a most
forcible n eloquent address at the
Methodist church last evening on high
er education. says the Cheyenne Tri-
bune.
The lecture was attended by a large
number of the teachers and older pu-
pills OF the schools as well as a good
representation Of the parents.
The lecture was at the request of
Superintendent Conard and was Of
great value in giving to his hearers
a truer idea of the value of a thorough
school and college training as a prep
aration for business as well as pro.es-
sional life.
This singing by the chorus of mixed
voices and a male chorus was very
fine, and reflected much credit upon
Miss Sieben's thorough training.
