lovers of wild west events will be
pleased to learn that Mich Henry

the bunch are some Of the widest
horses that ever trod the plains of

subdue the animals who have new

mouth or a saddle on their back.
The interest in the state fair
continues to grow and Douglas

Labor Day Proclamation.


1t is now the custom in this
state, as in many other states of
the American union, to observe
one day each year as Labor Day.
Everything good in this world,
everything worth having, is OBJ
tanned by labor. The actual per-
Torrance of labor in the attain
ment of that which we desire
brings happiness. Labor makes
strong mel and strong women and
the greatest nations are those that
are upheld by men and women
who consider it an honor to labor.
Whereas; today especially there
is in the minds of the people res
pect for those who toll and an EAR
nest desire to do everything that
is Legitimate and right to better
the condition of those who labor
and to make it possible that they
shall have good food, good cloth
ing, good homes and that their
children shall be educated TO the
best, highest and most useful citi-
zenship in. this Republic; that
their health and lives shall be
safe-guarded; that the hours of
labor may be- shorter; that there
shall be a minimum wage for wo-
men; that child labor will be res
tricted, and under such conditions
as not to impair health and COM
fort or to undermine the making
of a strong and noble manhood
and womanhood;
Therefore; L, Joseph M. Carey,
Governor Of the State of Wyom-
ing, do designate Monday, Sep.
TENDER 7th, 1914, Labor Day, and
request the citizens of the state to
observe the day by uniting in
proper observances to increase
respect for dignity of labor and to
create for those who toll the high
est esteem. I hereby request those
who have the power to do so to
make it in the best sense a holt
day for young and old so that
each shall have a day to himself
or herself; that places of business
shall close So that it may be a day
of true enjoyment for all.
In Witness Whereof; 1 have
hereunto set my hand and caused
to be affixed the Great Seal of the
State of Wyoming. Done in the
City of Cheyenne. this 7th day oil

Leased Territory Of Klauchau

OTHERWISE JAPAN WILL ACT.
War Is Meant if Request Is Not
Complied With.

Japan has sem an ultimatum to
Germany demanding the withdrawal
OF German warships from the Orient
and the evacuation of Kiauchau, and
giving Germany until Sunday, Aug. %,

wise, the ultimatum states, Japan will

The general expectation in Tokyo
is that the ultimatum will be followed
by war.
Takaaki Kato, the Japanese foreign
minister, simultaneously. with the dis
patch of the ultimatum, conferred
with George w. Guthrie, the Amer
ican ambassador, and made to him a
broad statement calculated to assure
the United States that American inter-
ests in the far east would be safe
guarded and China's integrity upheld.
Owing to doubts whether communi-
cations with Berlin were assured, ia
pan in order to insure the arrival of
the ultimatum forwarded 1t to Berlin
by six channels, including Washing

Situation Less Warlike

On Sunday an Austrian invasion oi Servia seemed inevitable, but yester- day the war clouds were less ominous Germany is better prepared for war than any other nation, but Emperor William makes it plain that he will strive for peace. All the chancelleries of Europe are now devising tentative plans for mediation, and if Austria
 can be induced to delay action day
 or two longer the probability IS that
 war will be averted.
 If. however, Austria and Servia cannot compose their differences
 through diplomatic channels and
 Austria decides at length to fight the little Slavic kingdom, it might be hard to hold Russia back, and with Russia attacking Austria then Germany
 would be compelled to enter the arena.
 But these ifs" need not now be seri-
 ously considered, for everything points
 to triumph of peaceful counsel.
 The Balkan wars were bloody enough, yet they gave Europe little thrill compared with the war scare of the last day or two; but while diplomats are engaged in efforts to transquilize the situation the excite ment in the capitals of the different nations will subside as quickly as it burst forth, and the whole world will send up prayer of thanksgiving when every sign of war has disappeared.
