Tuesday, March 4th was a bis

People In Sympathy.

Most of the people will be in
sympathy with congress in pass
ing the Webb bill over President
Taft's veto. 1t does not seem fair
that whisky should be shipped in
to states that have prohibitory
laws Notwithstanding the will OF
the people of those states. 1t may
be that MI Taft and Mr.. Wicker
sham are right about the consti-
nationality of the act, but that is q
matter that can we'll be left to the

partment will lose nothing by leav'

That Government Hatchery.

We took up the matter of the
Federal Fish hatchery for Saratoga
with Senator Warren a short time
ago, and we have been informed
by that gentleman that the matter
is moving along as rapidly as pos
sible, but as yet the government
has not been able to get certain
matters cleared up in some of their
departments. Some of the agents
of the government have not as yet
reported upon certain matters, and
it would appear that the delay is
nothing worse than the usual red
tape connected with this class OF
work. The department of Com
merce and Labor who have these
things in charge are working this
out along the usual lines and there
Is always more or less delay, as at
the same time they have thousands
OF other like matters to consider
and get under way. The District
Attorney at Cheyenne might be
able to push this a little faster il

Weekly Newspaper
at State University

March 1st the initial issue of a
weekly newspaper was published
at the University of Wyoming
The new publication is a student
enterprise, and will be edited and
managed solely by students. The
paper is q four-column folio in
size. The complete Staff has not
yet been appointed. Miss Agnes
wright, of Fillmore, Wyoming, and
a senior in the College Of Liberal
Arts, is editor-in chief, and Mr.
William Cobb, of Casper, Wyo., is
business manager. The name of
the newspaper is "The Wyoming
Student" Heretofore a monthly
magazine, of news and literary
character, has been published by
students, but-the steady growth of
the University has made it neces-
sary to establish a regular college
newspaper.
A journalistic club has recently
been organized at the University,
enrolling four charter members.
The club is designed to encourage
interest in newspaper and maya
zine writing among college stu
dents.

Blizzard Friday.

Friday morning about 4 O'Clock
the wind came up and started to
move the snow on the ground, and
while it was not bad in the morn
ing, it got under good Roadway by
noon and proceeded to give us an
old time twister which lasted we'll
up into the night. At times in
the afternoon you could hardly
see across the street. It certainly
had the tendency to pile up con-
siderable Of the beautiful up in

even if we get considerable more

The legislature was unique in
one respect. 1t passed one law
twice, the Legislative Appropriation
bill, and it sent another law to the
governor twice when it had passed
the legislature but once. Still
another bill failed to besome a law
after it had passed both houses for
the reason that a clerk did not
realize that it was necessary to en-
gross the same. The Legislative
appropriation bill was passed twice
for the reason that its first passage
was made without printing it, 9

A Protest That Counts.

1t Is a great thing for the voter
to make his protest against the
liquor traffic in prayer meeting or
by his manner of life, but if he
would really tell the government,
as we'll as the Lord and the people
that he wants the saloon closed,
there is but one method by which
he can be recognized; but just one
law under which his opinion can
declare itself, and his conviction
make itself felt, and that law and
method are fulfilled when he drops
into a box a ballot that calls fol
prohibition.-Frances e. Willard

ELK ARRIVE.
sixty-nins Fine Ysarling Elk Shipped In
From Jaokson's Hole to be Turned
Into the Medicine Bow Range.

On Monday the train brought in
two car loads Of young elk which
we're in charge of Deputy Game
Warden Sorenson and they we're
unloaded here in the stock yards.
The whole town turned out to help
give them a reception and to help
unload them. There was SO in the
shipment and they are in fine con-
dition for this time of the year,
having been fed in the Hole all
this winter. They are about ten
months old and seem to be in good
condition in every way and the
shipping did not seem to hurt
them to any extent.
They are in charge Of Deputy
Game Warden Taylor of this place
now and are being fed at the stock
yards here and will be taken out
to the Ryan ranch where they will
be turned into an enclosure in the
cedar breaks, whore they will be
fed until they are able to take
care of themselves, which will be
sometime in May or June when
the grass gets good in the noun
tains, when they will be turned
loose in the Medicine Bow range
of mountains above the sheep
range.
The first man caught killing any
of these elk should be sent over
the road for a good long length of
tine. 1t should be the duty of
every citizen in the country and
in Northern Colorado to see that
they are protected for at least 5
years. By that time there will lie
good many from the increase and
if left alone for six or seven years
that country would again be full
of this kind of game. At one time
this was the natural haunt of the
elk and was considered one of the
best elk hunting countries any
where.
See to it that you and each of
you look after their care and every
man caught over stepping his duty
to them, is brought to justice.
Much of the work of securing
them was through Mr. Taylor and
he intends to see that they are not
molested.
We are informed that these ami
mails brought into this county
and in every county where they
have been shipped, to %replenish
the country will be protected for
five years. This is as il seould be
and we hope they will get it.

Among the improvements is new

Fort Dodge and surrounding towns
are already being supplied with light
and power. The most important de-
mands on the plants are the electric
system and the stucco plants at Fort
Dodge. There are sixteen plaster
plants and the annual output of the
mills is said to reach staggering fig.
ures. The mills in fact furnish the
Southern with a large share Of bust

In fact the Southern recently plac
ed an order with one of the eastern
plants for 200 additional freight cars.
These cars are hauled by electric mo
tors. one Of the motors having 8
tractive power Of 1900 tons which is
equal to the work done by some OF
the ordinary steam engines. The
company has the reputation Of hauling
more freight than any traction line
