Table 2 shows that the Wyoming
taxpayer pays less on every thousand
dollars worth of property than the
property holder in any other state on
the list, and this estimate is made, not
upon the assessed valuation, which va

Less Cost Per Pupil.
Table 8 shows that wyoming pays
less for the education of each student
seeking higher education than any 9TH

ture should appropriate for university
purposes $4,000 for The next biennial
period, the state would still be paying
less per capita and just one cent more
on every thousand dollars worth OF
property than the lowest of the other
states on the list.

the university. President Tisdel says
that an appropriation of s25 900 would
build a woman's building and provide
for the other absolute needs of the
university for the XXI two years. If
this can be done, and Wyoming still
be giving no more pr~oportionally than
any of our n~eighboring states, there
seems to be no good reason why the
legislature should not provide the fund.

Their voices could be heard even in
