LOOK OUT FOR HER.

A woman has been working
towns east of here along the Union
Pacific, with a silk dress pattern
swindle. A number of Laramie
ladies have been victimized, accord
ing to the Laramie Republican.
The agent worked that city under
the name of Miss NJ. Cham bers,
and sold silk dress patterns, from
samples. The terms were "one
half cash and one half C. o. d."
The goods were supposed to be
shipped from the Acme Silk Manu-
featuring Co, New York City
Investigation shows that there !
no such firm and the ladies' are ouf
the cash payment.
The story is another good argu
ment for buying at home, and ha
probably taught that lessen to
number of Wyoming people.

COKEVILLE STORE
VISITED BY ROBBERS
Safe Blown Open and Two Numbered
Dollars and a Large Amount
Of Jewelry Taken.

Cokeville, Wyo., Aug, 90
Fuller Bros. store of this place was
broken into sometime during w ed
nesday night or early Thursday
morning. Two hundred dollars
in cash was secured by the robbers
and several hundred dollars worth
of jewellery. The general impress
sion prevails that the same gang
who robbed the Montpelier and
Dingle post offices are the guilty j
ones Of the Cokeville lawlessness.
The sheriff Of Uintah Go. was
notified at an early hour Thursday
morning of the robbery and every
cross road is being carefully guard
ed. 1t is believed the officers have
a sufficient clue that will lead up
to the capture of the cuiprits.

COMPLICATIONS OF
S, COMING ELECTION
~
~ -
.Review of the 0'Connor Case
and the Present Status
of Affairs.

An appeal from the order Of the
Board of County Commissioners
calling an election to determine
whether or not intoxicating liquors
shall be sold as beverage in Bear
Lake County was taken to the Dis
trict Court, and on hearing in that
. court the order of The board was
affirmed. An appeal was then tax
en- to the Supreme Court, and IL
should be there in time for hearing
at the November term. The ques
tion involved in the appeal is whe
ther or not the petition for the elec-
tion was legally filed. The law re-
qnires it TO be filed with the Coun-
" Auditor and il was endorsed as
fled with the Clerk.
The question as to whether or not
the election can be legally held
while The appeal from the order is
pending seems to be the main bone
of contention just at this time As
we understand, the Commissioners
contend that the order can be legal
ly enforced by holding the election
while the appeal is pending Tie
other side contends that it is not the
intention of the law that an order of
the board can be enforced while an
appeal from the order questioning
its validity is pending.
An application has been made to
the Supreme Court for a stay OF
proceedings until decision is bad
on the appeal, and spec al session
of that court has been called for to
morrow to hear the application. L
the stay is granted the election vii
be called of until the case is finally
determined. If the stay is mol
granted the election will be held oil
next Wednesday in keeping wit
the order. Should the Suprem,
Court, on final hearing, hold thu
order to be Invalid, the election, i
held, will be of no force and effect
And if the orderi is held good ther
is chance for further litigation il
the matter by reason of the election
having been held while the appea
from the order of the board wa
pending.

OPINION
ON LOCAL OPTION
What the Would -like-to- o-have-been
Governor thinks Of the
Law.

Believing in local option at tht
present time as the only alternative
and as a matter Of expediency;
branding it, hoEeveg, asa Pelitical
makeshift and advocated by many
for the effect it might have. on the
voters Of the state; declaring in no
mlstakable terms that state WIDE
prohibition would come in time and
asserting that if the abolition of the
the liquor traffic was good for Ada
county 1t was equally as good for
the entire state, Moses Alexander,
candidate for governor on the Dem
ocratic ticket last fall, last night
went on record as uneqnIvocally
against the continuance of the sa-
looms in the state.
81 am in favor of local option, .
he stated to representative of The
Statesman last night, Sin not having
anything better to vote for at this
time. am Individually in favor OF
state wide prohibition. look upon
local option simply as makeshift
of politicians in order thatthey may
blow dry in one county and blow
wet in another.
