In Windsor county there is fusion
county ticket running against the regu-
lar republican ticket and, contrary to
the effect in Bennington and Orange,
it is said to be benetitting the Clement
cause. The republican county ticket
elected here two years ago included
Sheriff Henry Peck and States At
torney Charles Batchelder who have
come in for good deal OF criticism
and condemnation in connection with
the Mary Rogers case and the state
prison investigation. Although Bat
chelder has resigned and moved away
and Peck will retire December |, the
general effect has been preJudicial to
the Republican county organization
and therefore beneficial to the fusion
chances.

AS an evidence of Indian discipline
over their children the entertainment
they gave here few days ago showed
that reverence for their chiefs could
hold even the youngsters in line. A
number of travelling men on the front
seats scattered nickels on the stage.
and the little fellows who were ranged
in a line on the back OF the stage in
front of their mothers scrambled for
money. But no matter how many
coins were thrown while the old
chiefs were making their talks, not
move was made by the pappooses
until the talk was Finished then there
was a general scramble until the
money was all collected-Pierre Cor

1t is not to be presumed that in com
ing briefly into four or five OF the "a
towns Of Windsor county | am in a
position to talk very wisely as to the
entire county. In fact it seems to be
generally considered that in the south
ern part of the county which | have not
visited Clement is not as strong, but
from all that have seen and heard !
think that, unless there is a great
change between now and September 4,
Windsor county will give Clement
more votes than it did in 1902 and a
clear majority over all the other can
didates

1t has been quite generally reported
through the state that Alfred f. Wat
son, who was turned down this year as
secretary OF the Republican state com
mittee, will support Clement. Mr. Wat
son is treasurer of the White River

and while there this afternoon | called
on him. Mr. Watson said that while
he is friendly toward Mr. Clement and
an admirer of him personally he is
supporting Proctor and the straight
Republican ticket. It has also been
said that Ex-Governor Pingree si
Hartford is for Clement but this is
denied by bis friends who say they

all this however there seems to be a

while the report of it in the Rutland

! % not suppose that the taxpayers
Of Bennington and other large towns
in the state viii agree with ME, bat it
has always seemed TO me that the lar
ger towns ought to help the smaller
ones on school and highway expenses.
IL is proper for them to help in the
schools for they are simply helping edu-
cate their own citizens, for it is evident
to anybody that many Of the best and
brightest of the boys and girls of the
small towns move into the cities and
larger villages as soon as they start
out to earn their own living. In regard
to highway moneys, the large towns
are,the markets as we'll as the sources OF
supply for the small villages and rural
communities, and all are benefited by
improved roads, whether those roads
are within the limits of the larger or
the smaller towns. Moreover, it is the
people from the centers Of wealth and
population mostly who use the high
ways for pleasure driving, and they
do not conline themselves to their own
towns, either All this, however, has
nothing to do with the political situa-
ton in Windsor county, though the
arguments on this question are likely
TO be one of the important features Of
the campaign, there and elsewhere.

1t is probably true at the present
time that in Windsor county the farm
ers are stronger for Clement than in
other sections of the state. The Re
publican state committee, however, has
discovered an argument that Is having
good deal of effect in the small
towns. II is the showing up to the
voters in these towns that If Clement :
platform and plans were carried into
effect the present school and highway
tax laws by which the little towns milk
the big ones will be done away with.
OF course the opposite is true in the
big towns which now pay taxes To help
the little ones, but this particular cam
paign literature is not intended for
circulation in the towns Of large grand
lists.

kESTER MAY RECOVER
FROM FRACTURED

A telephone message from Thermop-
oils received this morning says James
Hester is still alive, and is resting easy,
says the Meeteetse News. DR.. Rich
ards, who went to the ranch today, has
hopes of his ultimate recovery.
Reports of the trouble at the Tyn-
dali ranch are conflicting, and several
stories are being circulated. Our in
formant states that the trouble was ov-
'er a valise belonging to Kester. Mis-,
sing it from his cabin, he went to the
ITyndall ranch and found it. In the al
l%tercation following, Kester drew a gun
and shot young Tyndall. Dave Egbert
who was at the ranch, is said to have
administered the blow that crushed
Kester's skull. The instrument used
was a 22-caliber rifle, the force Of the
blow bending the heavy octagon bar
rel.
Tyndall was buried at Thermopolis
on Thursday. No inquest was held, the
Big Horn county officials declined tc
make he trip to Cottonwood for that
purpose.
