Cannot Afford District Attorneys.

Among the bills introduced thus far in the Wyoming legislature
s a propositions for district attorneys whose districts will be co-exten-
sive with the judicial districts of the state. There are at present four
such districts and the present legislature will be called upon to create
probably three more judges. If that should be done, and a district
attorney law is adopted Wyoming would be "loaded down" with seven
district attorneys.
Upon the face of it a very good argument can be made for such a
law, but upon consideration it will be seen that these attorneys are
not needed and would add a large amount annually to the burden of
the taxpayers. A similar bill was presented in the Seventh legisla-
ture, and received no serious consideration, because it was believed
then as it is believed now that such a law would serve no other prac-
teal purpose than make positions for a number of lawyers.
AT the very lowest estimate the annual salary and travelling ex-
penses of district attorneys would amount to $4,000 a year each. If
there we're seven of them the aggregate would be $1,000. Probably
within three or four years the entire cost of these new officers would
amount to nearly $4,000 annually. Another result wound be that
the Office of county and prosecuting attorneys would be reduced in
Importance, and it would be even more difficult than it is now to Sc
cure competent men for the positions, Counties of the first class
would no doubt reduce the salaries of the prosecuting attorneys and
large part of the year the individual county would have only the
servsces of a prosecuting attorney who would not have full RESPONSE
bility and who would take little It no interest in his work.
There is another reason why all lawyers should not favor this
proposition. A man with a prestage of district attorney sojourniug
in the county seat town would pick up a lot of the civil business as
we'll as the criminal business. He could take it for even smaller fees
than the local attorney because detained there and living at the ex-
pense of the state.
The Tribunes opposition to this bill is upon the same grounds
moi needed and the state cannot afford the additional expense. Our
opposition is not personal in any sense of the word, and these state
ments TT made to day in the same spirit al will characterize our op-
position to any proposed law for which there is no real demand-Wyo-
ming Tribune.

The Express Companies and Parcels Post.

Many articles have appeared in newspapers throughout the United
States predicted that the express companies would compete with the
parcels post and do all in their power to attract trade away from the
government enterprise. Judging frem the following extracts from a
letter sent to the local express agent these prophecers r. off their
base, and will have to guess again: n
Through the fuller installation of the Government Parcels Post
on January ]. 1913, a new system for which there seems to BIZ a de-
mand, has entered the transportation field afording the public an
additional service on shipments of IL pounds and less which at no
time in the past has this company opposed nor will it in the future
This policy must be strictly maintained by our officials and employ
ees by refraining from any attitude unfriendly to OF Of crihcims of the
Parcels Post; deyotng their time and attention toward the continued
of the efficiency of the companys service to the public"
With its enormous resources and vast commercial interests, this
country is large enough for both express companies and the Parcels
Post. Each will serve the public in its respective capacity, and the
conclusion can safely be drawn that the shipping community will
carefully consider the benefits to be derived from the service rendered
by both systems, utilizing that which best meets their own require
Post.

CIRCUIT JUDGE GOTHAM
 TAKES UP SWINDLE CASE
CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE


 Attorney Martin took issue with him, that the Law as read applied to the trial of cases where men had been indicted, and that these men had not been indicted, and were mere ly to be examined by magistrate to ascertain if they should be sent to grand jury for a further investiga- tion. lie argued that the rule pre- sented by MT Leslie was not in any measure applicable to the cireum- stances before that court.
 Judge Huff argued the point that the cases should be separated in that evidence that might apply to one might not apply to another, but would prejudice the court in a measure against all. He spoke of the almost impossfbilty of separating evidence as to one defendant when more than one was under examination.
 Attorney Richard Ryan, for the de- fense, argued that the individuals had been arrested under separate warrants, that the changes of venue had been separated and therefore the preliminary examination should be also separate.
 Judge Huff answered a remark MT. Martin had made about the severance of the cases being for delay. and to wear out the prosecution, by saying that the defense did not want to have the matter drawn out, but that what was sauce for the goose was sauce for the gander'
 Attorney Martin answered this with the statement that where the state was at disadvantage was in that the defense was working on the SEQ, 000 of Foxs money. and that as the prosecution was being fought with its own money, it had the right to protest against a long-drawn out fight.
 Judge Leslie suggested that MT Martin had gotten his idea that the

 Justice Hinton thea said.
 T will give the men separate trials"
 That settled that question. Judge Leslie then arose and stated that as the defense had the right to elect which one of the men should be tried first, ae would name the Arthur Sla- win case for first hearing.
 Attorneys Martin ana Hickey with drew for a conference. They went over the situation of the ruling, and then discussed the point with other lawyers and with circuit court. It was apparent that they were not sat isfied with being forced to trial in a single and specific instance, when the meu were all charged with the same alleged crime, and later there was made before Justice Hinton a re- quest for adjournment until ? o'clock ill the afternoon.
 Long before o'clock the county court room was again filled to over- flowing with something of the same class of audience that had marked the morning session.
 The defendants were brought in, counsel for the defense gathered about the table, Justice Hinton ap- peared and took his seat, and the crowd sat in waiting.
 Almost an hour later Attorney Martin came into court and stated to Justice Hinton that as a result Of the ruling of the court at the morning session for a severance of the trials of the men accused and that the trials would be so drawn out and re quire so lcng to go over practically the same matter, the prosecuting at, torney had asked the circuit court 10 sit as magistrates court ill the cases, and to take them up.

BIG CHANGES IN AMERICAN
TEAM; FRICTION REPORTED

NEW YORK, June 5.-American
polo enthusiasts to-day had not re-
covered from the shock experienced
last night when the announcement of
the lineup OF the American polo team
showed that three of the regulars had
rot been included. Rumors were cur
rent all day that friction was the
cause OF Harry Payne Whitney, L.
Waterbury and J. NJ Waterbury being
supplanted by FOXnall Keene, l. e.
Stoddard and Malcolm Stevenson, but
these were denied by all concerned.
The only explanations offered were
that the shift was made for the best
interests OF the American team and
also because some of the regulars
were in rather poor health
Keene, who has been playing polo
for 80 years and is now an old man
as polo players go. will captain the
Americans, in place OF Whitney. and
play position No. 3; Stoddard will
play No. /; Devereaux Milburn, who
has recovered from the injuries sus-
tained in practice Saturday will play
No. 2, and Stevenson will play back.
There is much debate to-day as to
whether the change has strengthened
the American team, but the general
opinion Is that II has not.
