CAREY'S REAL OBJECT.
Is Looking Ahead Two Years Ir
Hopes of Taking Warren's
Seat.

our congressional delegation has
been In office for fifty years, and |
thlnk 1t is time that we have a
change" said Judge Carey in a re-
cent address in Cokeville.
1t is supposed that the Democratic
candidate for governor referred to the
humber of years our two senators and
members OF congress have collective
ly served in Congress. and while the
Judge is not quite accurate in his
figures, We will let it go at that.
Regarding the proposed change in
the personnel OF our congressional
delegation We submit after a close
survey of Democratic timber available
IN this state for congressional honors,
that 1t would take about a thousand
years for any possible Wyoming Demo-
cratic senators and congressman to
accomplish what the present Republi-
can members have achieved in the
twelve or fifteen years each has
served in Congress.
The record of these men is well
known to the people of Wyoming.
Every city In this state has material
evidence of their ability and eff
%ficiency. Our old and new settlers
have been vastly benefited by re-
cent congressional legislation and
every old soldier remembers their con-
slant efforts in their behalf.
Ordinarily the really capable CON
gressmen. such as serve the people
of Wyoming. are constantly in the
public eye in connection with weighty
governmental matters. Their influ-
ence and their ability to serve the
whole country as well as their indi-
vidual constituencies are increased
with each succeeding term, and it
should be realized hat the experience
of replacing them with new and III
tried men would partake but little OF
wisdom
Our congressional delegation has
used the commanding position OBJ
tanned by long continued service to
aid in securing Legislation beneficia
to their people, such as the irrigation
and reclamation of public lands, the
rural free delivery. the new tariff law
"hANh PAoNCSt6 ouA obo ohu III ILL
pal industries, the 320-acre homestead
law, and many other measures looking
to the furtherance of the best inter
ests of our people.
Do we want to continue these poll
cies under which this country has
grown to industrial greatness with
out precedent in our history? Or do
we want to r%epudiate them? That is
the issue to be decided In November
next.
Carey want to retire the whole
delegation. In his speech at Cokeville,
October LIST, he said:
when our congressional delegation
finishes its present term 1t will be
nearly a half century of their services.
NOW THIS is JUST THE THING /
WANT TO BREAK UP"
In his Kemmerer speech a few days
later Carey said:
Warren, Clark and Mondell have
served in the aggregate over fifty
years in the halls OF Congress and
they no longer look at the office as
an honor and gift Of the people but
as their due. Now, | am tired of this"
In this connection the Denver Post
said:
MANY there are in Wyoming who
declare that Carey gubernatorial bee
buzzes only to drown Of the louder
song OF his senatorial aspirations, and
that he will run for greater honors
Two years hence when Warren m
up for reelection.
But the lineup as given out at this
time Is John E. Osborne, chairman OF
the Democratic state central commit
tee Of Wyoming. for senator in this
year of our Lord, to put Clark out Of
the running. with Carey, two years
hence, to lay Warren upon the back
number shelf"
What do you think about it?
