1t But Ties The Knot Harder

Under the caption Republican Treacbery to Wind River Set
tiers" in a recent issue, the Cheyenne Leader again enters a long IT,
rade against the way the Republican press of Wyoming treated the
recent successful endeavors. Ito secure "A segregation of the Carey Act
lands on the Wind r ver reservation. And all that too when all
Measurements made in herallng the matter to the public were cor
rected by lengthy articles in each and every paper in the state. The
mere fact that al incorrect version of the matter wal first given the
publc-based absolutely on the manner of treating congregations
heretofore by the department of the interior-furnished further pre-
text for the Leader to make political dope out of he troubles confront
ing the settlers here. 1t has been so since the Leader first touched
on the question and will continue to be so inst so long as the political
destinies of that paper is the basis upon which it claims existance.
And what does 1t all amount to? What does the segregation
OF these lands lei to the settlers. OF this reservation? Not one
blessed thing but to make more complex the already too burdeusome
problem that confronts them. Doesn't the editor of The Leader
appreciate fine realization on the part of the settlers that this segre-
CATION, without a contract to commence actual work, but. ties the knot
harder on their chances to get from under The Joy Morton load? If
not, then it is time that he does Let him remember that the peo
pie here are not pawns, to be moved hither and thither, as the polit.
ial gamester and trickster might dictate. False statements and
promises have ruined this field for that. Let us have 10 more of

Taft Makes Strong Points in Reply

Ppesndent Taft, in his speech delivered in Chicago recently, made
a very strong reply to the argument of Colonel Roosevelt advanced by
the latter in his Columbus address. President Taft is an able iur-

great weight. In SO far as Colonel Roosevelt is concerned be is a
man of impulses and one whose judgement is not to be trusted in the
great majority of cases. For practical commons sense commend us
