SElTZ is ACTING

AS ITS SECRETARY.
A letter came this morning from
Mrs. j. H.. Ashton al Saranac Lake,
N. Y, addressed to the secretary of
the Matrimonial club, and by common
consent it was delivered to Postmas-
ter Beltz, who is trying to make good
on the request. Mrs. Ashton says:
81 read an item in the New York
Herald of the scarcity of women in
your state. Now, l I'm a widow, as
years of age, with a loving, true and
kind disposition, a good housekeeper,
and if there is a suitable party that
would make a good, loving husband,
let him write. | abhor liquor and bad
living, but will be true and faithful to
any man. Will await a reply"
Mr.. Beltz has referred the letter to
A. c. Jones. Chauncey Root, Charlie
Berry, N. X. Boswell, Judge Groesbeck
and others of that sort, and something
may come of the matter.

There seems to be much ado appar.
emily about nothing regarding the
charges made of the mismanagement
of the state university at Laramie
In this regard, however, the most has
been said by a certain ex-Prof. Nor.
ton, with a ~grievance), and the few
disgruntled democratic papers of the
state, who lose no time in their en-.
beavers TO make the matter appear as
dark as possible. 1t is certain that
these papers are doing the state and
the people an injustice in their eager
ness to speak a word of d~isfavor for
one of Jul greatest institutions, which
every good citizen desires to see grow
and prosper. The recen investiga.
ton failed to disclose anything of dis,
color, and had it, then would have
been time enough to advertise it; but
to discredit the university upon the
slightest p~rovocation is only to be ex

WHY LANDER WAS CHOSEN.

1t has been decided % hold the
meeting of the editorial association al
Lander, the date being August I'd and
Sd. Just why Lander was chosen as
the meeting place might be hard to
know-for any save the elect. We
hazard the guess, though, that it is
for the same reason that Bismarck
was made the capital of North Dako,
ta.-Encampment Herald.
Lander was chosen by the executive
committee because it had previously
received a clear majority of all the
votes cast, n for the further reason
that it had extended a hearty invita-
ton to the editors to hold their meet
ing in a live town.

matter of congratulation. The bad
things can be charged to the source
from whence they emanated and the
future devoted to making friends OF
the enemies of the institution. There

honestly misled by the false utter

The Result

The Result
To the political fakirs. liars, sore
heads, etc, the university investiga
ton at Laramie of curse amounts 10
nothing, due to the fact that the envy
and animosity Of those classes have
not been gratified. To them it would
be a failure because they have failed
to bolster up a case,
The insipid professor who was dup
ed into stirring up the muss has, how
ever, done the state and the institu-
ton a service in two ways. He ex-
posed a couple of weaklings who hap
pened to get into the faculty, and
shows up the true loyalty of President
Otto Gramm and other friends of the
university in Laramie. The latter
class particularly we could not know
and appreciate to the full extent were
it not that their enemies occasionally
force them into the public eye. That
President Gramm has rendered the
institution a great service without re-
turn is proven by Prof, Morton's W
statements and the actual facts which
he had misrepresented in his public
statements to the press. He may have
honestly had suspicious, but that he
did not have intimate knowledge of
all the things he charged is very ap-
parent, for the reason that when IN
fronted with evidence to Offset his
claims he was not prepared to rebut
it, and in almost every case was fore
ed to confess hat he actually was or
might be in error.
The sum and substance of the whole
thing is that selfish politicians have
sought to advance their interests by
attacking the university and it's ma
agement, and it is to be hoped that
the testimony adduced by State EN-
, 1907-06-11

pected from the pessimistic source
OF which we have mentioned. We
have always looked upon the univer
sity with pride, and as an institution
well managed, and If there is any
thing to the contrary 1t will require
more than the mutterings of sour-tem,
pered periodicals and prejudiced in
~dividuals to satisfy the public. The
rumor seems to have been given but
little credence by thinking people,
Evanston Press.
Sample F~alsehood From Sheridan
1t is a distinctly humorous situa,
ton for n board of trustees to hold
comings. A spectacle of this sort has
Just been closed AT Laramie, where
the university board of regents with
all members present, save one, sat in
SOLEMN judgment upon charges pub
licly preferred against certain mem.
bers of the board by a professor for
merly employed in the institution.
II is not often hat the accused per.
son has an opportunity to become
his own grand jury or Judge in a mat.
ter affecting his guilt or innocence of
the charges preferred against him.
But what of the pernicious political
activity of Boss Gramm and the of,
ficiousness of Mother Hubbard? Were
these matters not proper subjects for
inquiry? Were they for any cason
overlooked? Who cares whether
Stevens borrowed a plow-point and
failed to return 1t until his attention
was called TO it; or whether Gramm
held up the agricultural department
OF the institution for two feeds or
three feeds Of alfalfa for a steer.
It's Gramm's political affairs that the
people want to hear about. They al
SO want to know just what SORE Cf a
tale bearing, meddling outfit is in
charge of hat high priced institution
of learning, that every whipstitcn a
mess of sewing circle scandal is dump
ed on the public. What sort of a

Investigation there ought to be a weed

The Saratoga Sun is of the opinion
that all of this adverse criticism from
the enemies of the university must
weigh heavily upon the two people
who have devoted their lives to the
up3uilding of the institution. No
doubt this is true. No one likes to be
maligned, villified and traduced with
out reason. AS Mr.. Crawford says
this is generally the reward offered
by the migrate.
, 1907-06-11
The Simple Truth

1t would seem to a business man
that the opportunity for graft in the
Wyoming university had been reduc-
ed to a minimum. What, with the
board of trustees on one hand, the
state examiner on another and the
federal examiner On still another, it
would be hard to imagine how any
kind of graft could find its way INFO
the institution. All of this adverse
criticism bears quite heavily on the
two people who have devoted their
lives to the up-building of this insti-
tuition, Hon. Otto Gramm and Miss
Grace Raymond Hebard, the secretary
of the board of trustees. For the
heroic self-sacritices these two people
have made, year after year, never
wearying, never stacking in the in
tensity of their purpose, they are now
met with the cruelest persecution and
villiication. But this is just the kind
of reward such devotion and self-sac-
riice brings forth.-Saratoga Sun.
, 1907-06-11

The Centennial Post very logically
draws the conclusion hat Mr.. Morton's

of Mr.. Corthells paper, which backed
them up.
