1000 Tourists Visit Yellowstone Park,

New high records for all kinds Of
travel We're made in Yellowstone Ma
tional park in the season just closed.
And as Yellowstone is regarded rs the
standard of measurement for vacation
touring through the country, it is
probable that more people saw America
first in the summer of 1920 than ever
before. despite threats of strikes, gaso-
line shortage and increased railroad
fares.
Up to September 18th the number of
tourists admitted to Yellowstone this
year was T7,S72, compared with CO.
331 the same date i'll 1919. Even
more gratifying to the National Park
service officials was the increase in
the number of private motor vehicles
entering the park. 13,424 this season
as compared with 10,6S1 last year.
"Sagebrushers.' as campers are known
in the mountain slang, are even more
welcome in Yellowstone than dudes"
who p~atronize hotels and hotel camps,
because the former stay longer and
learn more about the natural wonders
of the region than any other class of
visitors.
Contiguous states. Montana. Idaho,
and Wyoming. naturally sent more
visitors to Yellowstone than any others.
but there was IL gratifying increase in
the number of tourists from Il distance.
Each state in the Union was represent
ed. 1t was noted by park authorities
that more persons than ever before
came to Yellowstone from other ma
tional parks or left 1t to visit other
parks. part of the great annual sum
mer migration which is flowing in
crcasingly toward the west rather than
toward foreign countries.

TRUTH IN FABRIC LAW NEEDED
Kleber Hadsen of Rawiins is Champion
of Measure Which Means Much
to Wool Growing Industry.
(From Casper Tribune
All Light Car Road
Records Smashed


We cannot say that the young fell
lows are crowding the old boys off the
stage of action in Wyoming. but we
will say that the second generation is
taking its part and beginning to figure
in the public life of the state. Francis
Warren's boy is one of the biggest
business men in the state, Joseph Car
ey's boy is the governor. and Frank
HadSell's boy is a member of the legiS-
lature and conducts IL Sizeable wool
growing concern. And it is about
Kleber Hadsell that we propose to tell.
He has inherited from his father
many New England traits of charac-
ter-those plain. old-fashioned. every
ana can be depended upon ii all sorts
of emergencies. Among them. and
chief of all of them, is plain honesty.
This attribute has distinguished
Frank Hadscll for all the years of his
life. 1t is the hallmark of the Had
sell family. That's why the younger
Hadsell takes so naturally to the hon
est and true things. His legislative ca
vote could not be secured for any
measure that was not worthy and had
not Il good purpose i'll view.
Possibly all this has some hearing
upon the interest Klebcr Hadsell has
taken in what is known MS the truth
in fabric" bill. introduced in the sec
ond session of the SiXty-siXth congress
by Representative French, and referred
to the committee on Interstate and
Foreign Commerce. Mr.. Hadsell thor
oughly approves this bill and omits no
opportunity to tell the world that he
does. He wants it to become the law
of the land. because its foundation is
honesty and because it compels the
manufacturer. the jobber and the re-
taller to he square all along the line
and to give the ultimate consumer II
square deal.
Mr.. IIadsell produces the virgin wool,
of the best quality. that is supposed to
enter into the manufacture of WOODEN
products, and doesn't. and lie believes
that the goods sc manufactured should
be stamped and labeled for exactly
what they are. If an article is made
of pure wool. it should be so stated ON
the label it bears. and if it is made of
dog hair and oakum, that fact should
also he branded upon the product.
