Taft for

Taft for President
The time is near when the republican
party will select a standard bearer for
the lex presidential campaign. Now
that 1t is certain hat President Roose,
welt will not accept the nomination,
speculation turns to scan the field for
the most available man to fill his shoes.
This speculation is not without a tinge
of anxiety, for everyone feels that the
choice of a successor must be made
carefully.
Their are a number of good men 10
the fore, Root, Taft, Hughes, Foraker,
LaFollette, all with lightning rods erect.
of this goodly array of brains and
ability the Sun does not hesitate to ex.
press the opinion that the one best
adapted to WELD the presidential scep-
tire is Secretary Taft. He is not only
a large man physically but he is large
of brain, large in Judgment, broad in
principle. He seems to tower head
and shoulders above all the rest, and to
be able to carry his wealth of brains
as easily and direct his steps as firmly
as anyone who has ever stood in high
places. 1t was Taft that wrought or,
der out of the Cuban muddle; it was
Taft that brought the turbulent and
chaotic elements CT the Philippine Isl.
ands into harmony. And now follows
his trip around the world, leaving
strong and enduring bonds of friend,
ship for the United States in every
land visited.
What the United States needs at its
head now, perhaps more than ever in
its history is a man of great breadth
of vision, firm purpose and sound judg.
ment, and it seems to us that Taft has
demonstrated that he is possessed OF
all these qualities in a remarkable de.
gree. Each of the other candidates
may be strong men, full of wisdom,
and possessed of Judgment n discre-
ton, but none of them have displayed
all of these qualifications to the same
degree that Taft has. Let Wyoming
nail his banner to the flag staff, for he
will certainly head the list when the
host assemble at Chicago next June
Saratoga Sun.

up the entire town of Cheyenne at the

during a running fight with a PURSUING
posse"
Aside from the fact that The Incl.
dent at Laramie occurred seven years
after the disappearance of "Slapjack
Dave" that John Brophy was not kill
ed and that Watkins was not shot, the
foregoing is substantially correct.
1t was in the fall of 1876 that Jack
Watkins and a man named Rogers had
their difficulty with the sheriff of AL
bany county. Rogers was wanted on
some charge and while he and Watkins
were in the Albany county court house
Sheriff Brophy and Deputy Sheriff
Lawrence Fee attempted to arrest
them. Watkins, without taking his
hand from his side coat-pocket, fired

ty-eight representative woolgrowers.
The sheepmen called attention to un-
satisfactory service in some instances
and the railroads promised immediate
improvement. Later committees in
facilities and found the railroads had
kept their promise.
Raids Upon Sheep Camp.
During the year the association vas
called upon to investigate raids upon
sheep camps in northern Wyoming, but
as our laws are not sufficient for our
needs in furnishing crimes of this kind,
we could do very little, and l wish TO
suggest at this time that efforts be ex-
erted toward securing legislation at
the e session of our legislature that
will enable the courts to mete out
proper punishment to raiders and 9TH
ers who in any manner interfere with
the reaceful conduct of the sheep bust
ness.
Having correspondent at some length
with the National Wool Manufactur-
ers' association relative to improved
methods of gathering and marketing
wool, and the manufacturers having
shown a disposition to cooperate with
our woolgrowers, l would suggest that
this association send Il committee of

The Republican is in receipt of word
from Wichita, Kas., to the effect that
there is great interest among the Kan
sas people over the proposed Denver.
Laramie and Northwestern railroad.
Stock is being freely subscribed and
the project is considered a sure thing.
The most recent announcement in con.
nection with the proposed line is that
~right-of-way has been secured right
into the city of Denver. This line will
do much for the city of Laramie. Its
managers have bought large coal areas
and this product alone will mean an
immense business and incidentally
cheaper fuel.
