resolutions demanding an Improvement
in the transportation of sheep by rail-
roads, so that q minimum limit of sixteen
miles an hour be required OF the lines,

William Daily. a delegate from Carbon

Former Governor Frank H. Goodinc OF
Idaho declared that there were other

Walker Is friends rallied nobly to the
front. Z. II. Callister. president Of the

Gooding and Walker arose over a matter
Of puny proportions in comparison to
the importance of the affairs of the as
sociation.
Il was brought ont in statement by
President Gooding himself that the prin-
cipal cause of his dissatisfaction was
that on one occasion last year he had
asked Secretary Walker to come to his
home in Shoshone on business in con-
nection with the association, and that
Secretary Walker sent him a letter in
reply to the effect that he was no hired

done that for minute, but the fight
