The Power OF Wyoming and Its Future.

Think That is a great word. Few stop to consider its range.
but yet you a not do anything and do it right without thinking.
must think and plan for the future, aud as a body each county must
think and plan, and the entire state and nation. Each in it's respec-
tive relations must think and plan, and naturally the people of each
state think of the future, and in honorable competition, we prepare
for the future, by looking after every little detail, and by far the
greatest detail of all is first a good government and second good COM
petent officials in every Office.
The most important is u national government in it's president
and cabinet, next the houses of congress which is made up of repre-
sentation from each state.
In the senate halls each state is represented by two senators,
while in the house of representatives the number of congressman are
proportional to the population of each state. In Wyoming we have
over 40, and in looking to the unequaled competition between Wyom.
ing and New York in population and representation we a meet it
only by putting in congress a man who ls the equal to the entire for
ty odd of New York, and Wyoming in the same position of equality
as nearly all of the western states, is the only one who is really com.
peting with New York. You ask how? Because Wyoming has put
a man there in the person of Mondell who is the equal, and We have
kept him there until be is not only one who is the equal, but the
peer of the national congress, and thus Wyoming stands out in the
national body at prominent as New York, while all around us the
western states have shifted their congressman from one man to ano.
Their until they are less than nothing In representation and as a con-
sequence all of the western states depend on Mondell from Wyoming
not only taking care of Wyoming as n o state has ever been taken
care of, but is looking after the entire west. Can you find an excuse
in thinking of the future welfare of this state to change our con-
gresham?
This not only applies to the congressman, but it is equally true of
Senator Clark aud Warren from this state, who today stand out in
ing is as powerful in the senate al she is in the house of representa-
lves In thinking of the future of your business, the states bust
ness and the nations business n you find a II excuse to change a
man like Sen. CLARK for a shifting, Office. buying law breaker to take
his place.
Think if you can of a representative in congress like the young
inexperienced man who opposes Nondell in the present election,
going to congress and being anything in that body, let alone being
the equal of New 1orks forty odd representatives.
, 1916-11-02

Think if you eau 8 man like John B. Kendrick representing us
in the q 5 Senate instead of G. D. Clark. Clark, a national power
with training, ability, equal to the nations best men, being displaced
with a man like Kendrck, who not only probably stole his start In
business. but who sat in our Legislative state body and passed lave,
and has himself broken them. Kendrick, a mar who a 8 the states
trustee of its property, working a scheme to steal lands from It, as he
has done. and who purchased the Office of governor, promising great
things and has done nothing other than using 1t for further1ng his
own private interests and who now, with his Office only half expired,
is attempting to purchase the office of q. 8. Senator, and in sc doing
is breaking a federal statute by using American silver dollars for an
advertisement. We don't have to make political capital out of these
matters, they are fact that stand out all too true.
Wyoming safe in the halls of the national senate with Q. ID.
Clark, and the equal of New York with Mondell in congress, what
more could any state in the union want in looking, and thinking of
her future. 1t is YOUR business, a we'll as mine and every citizen in
this great state of ours to think" of the future and to prepare it for
greater things and in SO doing our greatest fort today lays in the re-
election of Mondell and Clark.

SCHOOL ATTENDANCE
LARGEST IN HISTORY
SAYS J.P. GRAHAM
COUNTY SUPERINTENDENT is
GREATLY PLEASED WITH EN-.
THUSIASM OF STUDENTS.
VERY SATISFACTORY CONDITIONS
But Slight Duties Have Devolved Upon
Truant Officers Since School At
tendance Law Enforces ltseH-chil-
dren Are Interested.

1.-THE attendance in the schools of
the county is the greatest in history
and the interests is the most pro
nounced," said County Superintendent
]. P. Graham this morning. 81 am
more than pleased with the results
achieved during that part of the year
that has been completed" said Mr..
Graham.
Mr.. Graham has visited large num-
Der of the county schools and in each
case has found satisfactory conditions.
He says that the teachers are faithful
to their duties and the students more
than anxious to apply themselves to
their books. Every school in the coun-
ty is running smoothly and without
friction, and the prospects are for the
most successful in the history of the
county school system.
The percentage of attendance to en-
rollment is the best that has been had
by the schools in years. An absentee
is seldom found when the rolls are
called in the morning.
But slight duties have devolved on
Willis White and Charley Burns, tru-
ance officers. These men, delegated
to enforce the compulsory school at
tendance law, have had little work;
and little difficulty has been expert
enced in getting all the children of
the county into the school room.
One of the most encouraging fea-
lures of the school situation, says Mr..
Graham, is the great enthusiasm that
the children show for their work. He
thinks that great progress will be
made if the interest continues to grow
as he is expecting it to.
