 Philadelphia. Dec. S.-Bishop William c Doane of the Protestant Episcopal diocese of Albany. presented to the federal council here the official report of his committee, in which he assert ed that the decline in the birth rate in the United States is greater than in any other country.
 Many causes have been alleged for this decline" he says, 'but it is admit ted beyond all power of dispute that it is largely due to the loss of the sense of responsibility 10 God. resulting in deliberate avoidance of child bearing.

PEOPLE We KNOW
They Are Laramie People, and What
They Say is Of Local Interest.

When an incident like the following
occurs right here at home, 1t is bound
to carry weight with our readers. So
many strange occurrences go the
round of the press; are published as
facts, people become skeptical. On
n subject skepticism is rapidly dis
appearing. This is due to the actual
experience of our citizens, and their
public utterances regarding them.
The doubter must doubt no more In
the face of such evidence as this. The
public statement of a reputable citi
zen living right at home, one whom
you can see every day. leaves no
ground for the skeptic to stand on.

LET US ALONE"

The story of the destruction OF ma
tional resources, iterated in SO many
quarters OF late, begins to make an
Impression.
BY preventaDle fires and other sins
we have wasted as much timber as
we have used and are now, they say,
fairly within sight of the end of cur
supply. We have taken out half the
coal in a mine and let the mine cave
in on the rest, practically destroying
what was left, Much natural gas we
have simply let burn. The waste OF
soil has been enormous.
It would be excellent now. in view OF
the price of lumber, If we could have
back some of the hundreds OF thou
sands of square miles Of timber which
experts say we have thrown away, or
some of the billions of tons OF top
earth that we are now painfully dig
ging out of riverbeds where it should
never have gone. Pondering these
things, the national thought does, we
believe. begin to take a sober and re-
gretful cast, as in the morning after
an evenings in~discretion.
And all this immense waste is sim
ply a logical, automatic result OF let
Us Alone 1t is the ripe fruit of that
grand old policy of non-interference by
society collectively with business af-
fairs-a policy which many people still
pretend, strangely enough, to admire.
Let everybody clash and burn at his
own sweet will without the control of
a social conscience-and see where
you come out. Let Us Alone?" We
are always sorry to see business men
approve a motto which belongs proper

A ASSAULT

Perhaps the most malicious of the
Boomerang's assaults upon men who
are trying TO do things for this state
was that accusing Senator Warren Of
taking & hand against Laramie In the
matter of locating the base OF supplies
for the maneuver camp at Dale Creek.
This attack Vas made out of whole
cloth, The Boomerang could have
learned the actual facts without de-
voting more than five minutes to in
v~estigation. Mr.. Corthell. the proprie-
tor of the Boomerang and chairman
of the committee having the matter in
charge, could have told his paper the
truth. He could have advised It that
Senator Warren had never been ap-
pealed to in the matter and that the
entire correspondence-and he did not
take the matter up in any other way
was with the quartermaster's depart
ment. While his treatment by the
army officials was courteous and po-
lite in every way, results were not at
tanned.
The Republican Is informed that the
only letter written to Senator Warren
was one asking information as to the
proper authorities to write to in the
matter and as to what channels the
direction and handling of the supplies
would be carried on through. This in
formation was given by the senator in
detail and with the utmost prompt
ness Further than this he was not
asked to take a hand in the matter.
He is not in the habit of Quitting in"
when he is not asked, and to accuse
him of interference against any partic-
uiar point is without warrant and
contemplate. Such tactics will not
only work to the injury of this city at
the present time, but in the future.
The Republican believes the COM
mercial club Of this city and the city
generally needs friends. Friends are
not made by the s OF the ~bludgeon,
nor by contemplate filings and inu-
endoes, particularly when they are en-.
tirely untrue.
The Republican would like to know
If Mr.. Corthell approves of this kind
of work. II he does, the people here
ought to know it. If he does not, it
is time that he had taken charge OF his

Cheyenne, Wyo, June 9.-Commit-
association will go to Chicago this
week to confer with business men,
bankers and representatives of the
railroads entering that city relative
to the establishment of a large wool
warehouse there.
Bankers Favorable.
The business men of Chicago are
known to be heartily in favor of put
ting In a wool warehouse and doing
other things to attract sheepmen to
that city. The bankers have been
seen and all are willing to make lib
eral advances, and at low rates of in
terest, on warehouse certificates. The
railroads also will help, and will grant
the same favorable mill-in-transit rates
and other concessions that were grant
ed the Wyoming Wool Growers asso-
citation when it established it's ware
house in Omaha.
Want Wool Market.
The business men of Chicago are
e~ndeavoring to establish a big wool
market there. and if they succeed in
getting the warehouse as planned, this
move will be followed this season or
next by the establishment of securing
plants and later by manufacturing es-
adjustments. The wool growers are
favorable to Chicago, and will do ev-
erything possible to aid.
Better Prices BY Holding.
Wool growers are now hopeful, and
while they will not get as much for
their wool this year as they received
for the 1907 clip. they are satisfied
they can obtain much better prices by
holding until fall than are now Of

Cheyenne, Wyo., June 9.-Dr. Flock
en-, an expert OF the department of ag-
riculture, and State Veterinarian
Paaeging, who were asked by the
state sheep commissioners to investi-
gate the outbreak of a strange disease
among the sheep of o. Josendal Of Al
cova, west Of Casper, have returned
to Casper and report that the fatali-
ties were due to grub-in-the-head. A
close investigation was conducted, and
the expert held several post-mortems,
each producing convincing proof OF
the theory that grubs in the nasal pas
sages and in the brain cavities caused
death.
Can Take Precautions.
Now that 1t is known what causes
the fatalities, the sheepmen can take
precautions to save their sheep Dur
ing the fly season flies enter the nasal
passages OF lambs, and the animals
are too small to rid themselves of the
pests. which lay eggs in the nose,
these later forming grubs which fire.
quently get back into the brain cavi-
ties, causing trouble the following
year, or when the animal is about one
year old. The grown sheep, which
are able to fight the flies and sneeze
them from their nostrils, are seldom
if ever affected.
There are several well known pre-
ventatives, but the one most relied
upon is the dipping of the noses OF
lambs and young sheep in tar. The
animals may be dipped in any of the
coal-tar preparations, which serve to
keep the flies away. &
