1t Is altogether rish. and proper for
railroad onicials to inform the men In
the service Of their company what they
think the effect would be.
Capital invested in railroads, no less
than that invested in other ways 10
tiniid. 1t will not venture far when
danger threatens; and there is no
question that were Mr.. Bryan to be
elected the menace Of his policies
would throw q cloud upon all forms Of
investment. Railroad companies. now
struggling from under the load Of last
years panic, would be confronted by
legislation and m administration 20.
drastic and 30 hostile to business In
terests that they would be compelled
to refrain from buying any more equip
ment or constructing any more new
track than they could avoid buying or
building.
Whether Mr.. Bryan would be reck-
less enough to attempt to carry into
effect the radical policies now advocat-
ed by him. the effect Of Ills election
would inevitably cause business and
industry to come to q halt. This would
be followed by q great reduction in
railroad trafic; and with cars con
demned to idleness and little repair
work to be done in the shops, the rail
road companies might fad it impos
sible to avoid both a reduction In
wages and the discharge Of a large per-
centage OF the men now employed.
For those discharged, the reduction
would be, not 10 e cent, but 100 per
cent; and no 1t comes to tnis that the
possibility Of Mr.. cryan's election Is a
far greater menace to the welfare of
railroad employees than the prediction
which the railroad ofhcials are said
to have made.
The shrink;,ge in business which
would inevitably follow Mr.. Bryan's
election would involve stagnation, af-
fecting all classes OF labor, whether
employed in railroad service Or in fac.
tories and shops, In the building trades
or on the farms. AS an offset to this
menace Mr.. Bryan gives the working
men promises Of legislation 80 radical
that 1t would never be sustained by
the courts, so in violation of personal
and property rights that, in the event
of its receiving judicial sanction,
would paralyze every form of indus
trial observation-disclosures Republican.

BUTLHR's B~ALDNRDAsH.

It may be possible that the attack
being made by Butler, q Casper attor-

some value to Mr.. Gibson's candidacy,
but The Republican doubts 1t. The
people Of this county are not very well
acquainted with Butler. but they know
enough about him to know that 1t has
been an impossibility for any Judge
who a ever held court In Natrona
county to get along with him. They
know that Judge Blake had trouble
with him, that Judge Hayford had trou-
Bile with him n that Judge Carpenter
has had trouble with him. They
know that he is erratic alike In his
court work and in politics. They
know that any attack made upon Judge

NEWS LIARS.

Wyoming appears to beIcursed with
mora kinds OF news liars than any
state In the union. The following dis
patch wasssent out from Cheyenne last
week:

is accompanied with SNOW and a most
terrific wind. All trains due at Chey-

to proceed owing to the intensity OF
the wind and drifting Bnow."

BRYAN AND RAILROAD
WAGES.

In the event Of Mr.. Bryan's election
the railroad men of this country will be
lucky If they are not subjected to a
much greater reduction in wages than
the 10 per cent which he says certain
railroad oficials stated would be made.
II the railroad officials referred to
by Mr.. Bryan made any such state
ment, It WIS an expression OF their
opinion concerning the effect which
would be produced upon railroad bust
ness In the event of Mr. Bryan's cleo
ton; and this opinion great majority
of the business men OF the United
States share.
The election Of Mr.. Bryan would be
followed by a paralysis OF business
which would SO reduce the trafac upon
all railroads that a reduction in wages
might become a necessity: and hence

While in Cheyenne Friday night Fresi-
dent Merica was invited to attend q
meeting of the Young Mems Literary
club and the evening was q genuine
Wyoming and university night. The
educational institution was presented
to the club In an entirely different light
than 1t had hitherto been held. It
took on q broad statewide aspect and
every member was made to fully ap-
preciate the fact that 1t was his prop
erty and something in which he should
take a personal interest.
President Merica's remarks brought
forth numerous queries and the meet
ing developed in a veritable Wyoming
boosters meeting. The comments by
the membership were of a very COM
mandatory nature and keen interest was
shown in Wyoming's educational at
fairs. After running comments Of per-
haps an hours duration, the president
set forth IL an exceedingly able man
ner the ability of the university to
train the youth OF the state. 1t would
have done the hearts of the members
of the faculty good to have heard theiI
virtues extolled. In some detail the
executive explained why Wyomine
boys and girls should receive their
educational training In their own
state. La Toilette was referred to as
an illustrious example of state train
ing and state pride. There was not a
University of Wisconsin man who
would not fight for La Toilette to the
last ditch. This wac because La Fol
lette had classmates all over Wiscon-
sin ready to defend his every action.
This visit Of President Merica to the
IrFoung Mems Literary club of Chey.
enne more than would appear
upon the surface. That society is com.
posed of thirty of the best thinkers Of
the capital city. Live subjects are
constantly under consideration and the
society wields a strong influence in all
public matters. II Is not too much to
say that the president enlisted the
sympathy and earnest support of the
entire membership. Hereafter there
will be good words and no knocks from
this source and there will be a feeling
throughout the capital city that the
university ought to receive the active.
energetic support of the educated peo-
pie of Laramie county. Superinten-
dent Stockwell of the Cheyenne city
schools expressed this sentiment in the
meeting and It was voiced by the en-
tire membership.
In bringing the people of Wyoming
to a true appreciation Of their state
and its great institutions President
Mcrica Is doing a work .isatewiil not
only rebound to the benefit OF the uni
versity, but to every section of our
state.

FRANK MONDELL

There ID no man in congress givins
his constituents nor for their money
than Hon. Frank w. Monloll. He has
given up his entire life to the great
work or representing the people Of this
state In the lower house. No request
Is too trifling for him to take up and
carry to success, no problem toe
great for him to attempt to solve. From
his early youth he has been aepersist
ent. effective worker. Since his adven,
In this state he has not known an idle
moment. His first efforts we're in the
line Of state development. He has moi
'swerved from that course since. al.
though he does not overlook the small,
Ter affairs OF life. his greatest work has
been with the large affairs. Perhaps
The reclamation act, under which mil
lions have been spent in Wyoming and
under which many millions more will
be spent, is the browning act of his
great political career. For a western
man, the land business is the greatest
work and by his intense energy he has
risen TO the head of the committee on
public lands. In the land work Mon.
dell has achieved marvellous results,
Many Of the wisest laws ever passed
by the national congress emanated
from his mind. Not only the reclama-
ton act, but the second homestead act,
the second desert land act and many
minor measures are due to his knowl-
edge AID hard work. =
In his work in congress Mt. Mondell
has not. always been able to please all
his constituents. That would be i'm.
possible . No matter how popular men
or measures may be. they meet with
opposition. 1t cannot be otherwise. In
a mans lifework, however, he must be
judged by the general average OF his
work and ability. Gauged by this rule.
there Is no congressman II the nation
more deserving of the support of the
entire people of his commonwealth.
Suppose, just for illustration. that
Mr.. White should defeat Mr.. Mondell
in this canvass, how long would 1t take
him to reach the place now occupied in
by the man from Wyoming?
If no had the talent and the capacity
for work Mr.. Mondell has, there wotN
be at least a dozen years of effort
ahead Of him before he could he of the

borne in mind by every citizen, no mat
