Smedley came to him Offering to find
the missing woman. There began then,

HERE Are THEIR QUESTIONS And HERE ARE MY ANSWERS

What about the Nicholson jaiL-breaki? Jail breaks
are not uncommon, even in state penitentiaries. How
ever, four of the six prisoners who escaped were rear.
rested and are serving additional prison sentences at the
present time.
What about the Mills Hotel gambling2 This ho-
tel was closed by my personal efforts under the state
abatement act. in spite of strong influence in certain
quarters.
What about Platte limp This place was closed
under my direction.
What about general boohegging9 This is a condi-
ton prevalent throughout the United States and even
the federal government has been unable to suppress it.
During my term of office fines of more than $4,000
have been levied against violators of the federal prohi-
htion act. This record has not been equalled by the
sheriff of any other county in Wyoming.
What about maLtredtn1ent of prisoners? | claim
that this accusation is false in every particular in spite
of the desperate class of prisoners which my office has
been compelled to arrest and transport to the peniten-
tiary. | also want to declare that the rumor that the
Mexican prisoner VINO shot A. ]. Cunningham was de-
livered at the state penitentiary at Rawlins by my dep
uties in good health and perfect physical condition and
is there at the present tirne to the best of my knowledge
Much false information concerning this Mexican has
been circulated throughout the county by the Vampire
from Georgia and others of his clique.

any voter who is paying the expenses of MIR. Leavitts
campaign.

Were you eOer arrested and did you plead guilty
of bootegging? | have never been arrested for boot
Logging, but paid a fine for an employee who WA guilty
of selling liquor illicitly in the year Of about 1910.
Is it a fact that you uere arrested, Mr.. Marquis dur

pioldtion of the Volstedd act? | was not and will give
$500 to anyone proving this contemplate lie. The rec
ords of the federal court will bear out my denial. This
is an easy way for the poor, creeping lizard who pro-
pounded this question to make $500.

RATS ARE GREAT ANNOYANCE
Best Time to Take Precautions
Against Rodents Is in Building
of Poultry House.

Rats are often source of much
annoyance and loss in the poultry
yard. Perhaps the best time to take
proper precautions is in the building
Of a new poultry house, through the
use of cement and fine mesh wire net
ting under the floor and around the
bottom of the side walls to make it
rat proof.
The next best thing is to have the
poultry house or houses erected by
themselves at little distance from
the other farm buildings, and so con-
structed as to make it hard for the
rats to find lodgment there. In this
case the rats will have to travel some
little distance before entering and
therefore run more risk of being
caught by the family dog or cat.
