FORCED INTO FRIENDSHIP.
Italy. il is pointed out. In her need
for wheat, was forced TO enter into
business relations with Soviet Rus-
ia and her need was so great that
she had to go beyond the limits set
by the United states in permitting
private citizens to enter into traoe
relations "at their own risk. Italy,
il is said, has been forced to record a
friendly attitude toward the Lehihc-
Trotsky regime.
Despite the embarrassment OF this
position into which Italy was forced
by necessity, officials here are confi-
dent that the Italian statement OF Its
position will not differ in principle
from that taken by the United states
and France, although they refuse TO
speculate as to the manner in which
this Is to be accomplished.
Secretary Colby yesterday placed
Polands plight squarely into the po-
litical arena. In receiving resolutions
from a delegation of more than 800
Americans Of Polish descent asking
for material and moral aid for Poland,

stances may be that call upon us for

The publication OF the French note
TO the United states on the Russian
policy was regarded here as the sec
ond step in a campaign against the
morale OF the Soviet armies. With
the forces OF Soviet Russia apparently
meeting with reyerses before Warsaw,
officials here were hopeful that the
announced policies OF the United
States and France would encourage
the people of Russia to turn against
the Soviet government.

From the White House comes the announcement that leader
ship on the League of Nation issue has become imperative, and
that Governor Cox's efforts require guidance.
Now that Wilson has entered the League of Nations fight, it is
perfectly proper for the Republicans to show the ~searchight ,on
the Presidents numerous sayings.
1t is confessed by the Democrats that while Governor Cox is
candidate yet President Wilson is the man behind the scenes CON
trolling the action of the candidate for president.
Warren G. Harding will be fifty five years of age on Election
day! He old enough to know and young enough to do. His rival
has not yet reached even the years of discretion.
The Democrats seem to depend upon quarrels and divisions in
the Republican camp than upon their own ability to win the
confidence of the voters. Fortunately there are no quarrels or
divisions.
Governor Cox says he is not committed to Hitchcock reserva-
lions. To what is he committed? He does not say. The only
inference reservation.
President wilson will enter the fight and help win the League
of Nations great and solemn referendum" s the announcement
read by Governor Cox. Deliver me from my friends" cried
the Governor in despair.

S. Park, the Republican candidate for County Treasurer,
needs no introduction to the voters of Carbon County. S. Park
is a resident of Encampment but for the past ten years has been
living in Rawlns. Ten years ago Mr.. Park was first elected as
treasurer of Carbon County, being elected by but a very few ma
jority. Two years later, after the voters of the county had had an
opportunity to observe his work as County Treasurer and to
thoroughly appreciate his ability, he was re elected by a hand
some majority. After serving four years as County Treasurer
Mr.. Park was persuaded by the next County Treasurer. Mr.. E. M.
Tierney, to remain as deputy county treasurer. Mr.. Park served
four years in this capacity, again being elected as county treasurer
two years ago.
This year Mr.. Park was persuaded to again become a can
didate for the office although it was his personal desire to re
tire to private life for the remaining years of his life.
That Mr.. Parks ability and strength is thoroughly recog-
nized is attested to by the fact that the Democratic party endorsed
him by not placing a candidate in the field in opposition to him.
No higher praise could be given any man than a remark made
recently by the state examiner when he said: Carbon County
people will never be able to realize how fortunate they are in
having a man of the ability of S. Park as County Treasurer. No
other county in the state is so fortunate"

J. W. Wisda, the Republican candidate for County Surveyor,
during the past six years has proven himself to be a thoroughly
efficient and capable public official.
Mr.. Wisda is one of the best engineers that has ever located
in this county. He carries a surveyors and also an engineers
license and as county surveyor has proven himself to be especially
skilled in knowledge of road work.
Mr.. Wisda received his engineering course in the Ohio State
University, which university has one Of the best engineering
courses to be secured anywhere. Following his graduation he re
ceived a great deal of training in railroad, irrigation and general
engineering work.
This gentleman located in Rawlins several years since and
during his residence here has built up a large practice. In all
his work he has shown exceptional ability and in practically every
case his work has given universal satisfaction, Mr. Wisda since
his location in this city has proven himself a substantial and am
bilious citizen. He owns a fine home in Park Hill addition. is a
member of the School Board of School District No. 3 and is in
terested quite heavily in many of the oil companies operating in
this section.
That Mr.. Wisda will be re elected as county surveyor at the
election on November End is a forgone conclusion.

For Road supervisor DlStrct No. ~.
A. w. Rasmussen, Republican candidate for road supervisor
for District No. l, is known throughout the county. Mr. Ras-
mussen was road supervisor of Carbon County for a couple of
years preceding his election four years ago as county commits
sioner for the four year term. During the past four years he has
been serving the county faithfully and efficiently as county com
missioner.
Mr.. Rasmussen is thoroughly acquainted with road con
ditions in Carbon County he not only knows a good road when
he sees it but also knows how to build one, having been engaged
in railroad construction work for several years.
The voters of Road District No. l will make no mistake by
.electing Mr.. Rasmussen as road supervisor.
, 1920-10-21

For Road Supervisor District No. q.
John Milliken, Republican candidate for Road Supervisor in
District No. 2, is a resident of Hanna where he has lived for a
great many years. He is an expert on road matters and as Road
Supervisor made an excellent record.
John Milliken is thoroughly acquainted all over the county
and especially in the east end. He is familiar with every road in
the county and under his direction the people of the county can
be assured that road work will be done properly.

will include an extension Of the

Out with the Army Rifle.

The Nezperce Rifle Club held
Its first shoot with high7power
equipment last Sunday, and the
13 members on the range made
very fair initial scores. The prac-
tice was done at 200 and 300 yards
and several records of 20 points
out Of a possible 25 were made
at both distances, and these in
cluded a number Of "bulls' eyes. {"
A range has been temporarily
established on the Henry Sulli-
van ranch, a couple of miles out
ON the railroad from town, and
the plan followed for its construc-
ton proved quite effective in
Sundays preliminary, demon-
strating that when perfected this
will prove to be satisfactory and
safe place to learn the art of "put-
ting it over" with Uncle Sam 8
powerful army rifle.
Good interest is being shown
in the enterprise, and it is anti
cipated that when weather condi-
tions become more favorable, the
range will be well filled at every
shoot.
