The secretary is interested in Lar
annie, informing a reporter for The

during the three weeks he and his
o had been on their present trip.
They were at Salt Lake and received

Denver, and not until they reached
this city would the veteran head Of
the department permit himself to be
quoted Il am enjoying your climate
and have a deep interest in Laramie.
Your people have certainly won my
lasting high regard. Besides. l have
had a splendid dinner with Brother
Boil and the other citizens"
