THE l. w. w. AGAIN

A month ago The Republican called editorial attention to the
menace of the l. w. W., which has it's emissares in this field in
constantly increasing numbers: this being due as stated at that
time to the industrial activity which has been brought about by the
building of the new refinery and pipe lines nearby.
This warning was emphasized during the past week by the ar
rest of an accredited representative, or organizer, of this un- Amer
lean and law defying organization. This worthy had upon his per
s a complete outfit of forms for use in securing new members,
collecting dues and %furthering the cause" in general.
1t is stated by those in a position to be informed that the ]. W.
w. has grown to such proportions in the immediate vicinity of
Rawlins as to hold meetings and probably plot against law and
order and arrange to act in concert should occasion arise. This be
ing the case, and there is little reason to doubt it. the question
arises What is Rawlins going to do about it?
This city, in common with every other city similarly situated,
and in fact the entire state of Wyoming, must at an early date pass
laws and ordinances to protect itself from this l. w. w. menace.
Rawins must do something and do it now. The best emergency
suggestion is the immediate installation of "chain gang" a real
chain gang, where the Wont Works would be sent and allowed to
shovel snow and otherwise improve the city. without being allowed
the alternative of paying a fine. This would serve the double pur-
pose of Kidding the city of those already present and discouraging
any further influx of these undesirables.

BENEFIT PERFORMANCES
FOR STRANDED ACTORS

The vaudeville attractions which
have been showing at the Rawlins
Opera House for the past ten days
came to a close Tuesday night last
when the management decided that
the show was n losing proposition.
Mr.. f. II. Morrison, who opened this
show house. decided to close after
losing several hundred dollars on the
deal.
The result OF closing this show Is
that the members OF Billy Towards
Syncopated Steppers are left here
stranded and without sufficient
money to return to Denver. In order
to assist these actors the owners OF
the Opera House have donated II for
n benefit performance to be given
tomorrow night. These actors state
that the show which they will give
tomorrow night will be n dandy and
the people OF Rawlins are urged to
attend.
The shows which have been given
Mt the Opera House during the past
several days by this company have
g above the average and have
been well worth seeing.
Next Monday II. l.. Throop will
re-open this Opera House with Bud
Duncan's Bunny Girls. Advance

ccllcnt and the shows NEXT week

EARL BARNT PURCHASES
WYOMING DRUG STORE

On January LIST Earl Barnt as
sumed the management of the
Wyoming Drug Co. store in this
city as owner of the business. The
work Of invoicing and attending to
other details Of the transfer is
practically completed at the present
time, and Mr.. Barnt Is already in
charge.
A few days after the death OF the
former owner, w. H. Hooper. Mr..
Brant arrived in Rawlins and opened
the store, conducting 1t in the in
terests Of the estate OF Mr.. Hooper
until January first.
Mr.. Barnt is we'll known in Raw
Inns, having been employed for some
time both by the Pierce & Ryan
drug store and in Rendle's drug
store. He went to Scottbluff, Neb.,
a few months since and was en-
ployed there until he returned to
Rawlins. Mr.. Barnt states that he
will conduct the business under the
established firm name of The Wyom-
ing Drug Co.
Ivan Dergwell OF Chehalia. Wash.
arrived in the city last evening and
has accepted a position in this store.

authorities in the country who have
studied the bill say that 1t 10 the
most important educational measure
to come before this country IN Z
hundred years. The proposed Town.
e~r-Sterling Bill would provide for q
Department of Education with q Sec.
rotary In the Presidents cabinet.
Educators generally believe that
such a department would greatly I'D
vance the educational progress OF
our country. Among the arguments
advanced In favor Of this bill, which
probably will come up for . vote ct
this session OF Congress, are the fol-
lowing:
I. It authorizes an appropriation
of 800, 1000 900, spread over = period
states In the promotion of education,
with the express provision that the
management of the public schools
shall remain exclusively Under state
control.
2. The Demonstrating Bill would
lift education out Of the subordinate
position In which 1t has so long been
submerged, and give 1t equal recog-
milton with agriculture, commerce
and labor, with a secretary in the
Presidents cabinet. There Is moth
ing of more Importance in our
scheme OF government than the edu-
cation Of the people . II edu-
cation should be given the recogni-
tion which its Importance requires, II
illiteracy is a national peril, II ignor-
ance of our language and institutions
Is a source of danger IL there
should be provided for every boy and
girl in America a competent, we'll
qualified teacher in order that there
may lie ds=sloped throughout our
nation an intelligent and enlighten-
- citizenship, then it can be fairly
said that this legislation is justi-
fled"
From Report of House Committee
on Education, which recommended
passage Of Demonstrating Bill. Jan.
II, 1921.
3. The national government
through a Department Of Education
could help equalize the great differ
ence in educational opportunities
throughout the country by giving fin
ancial aid to the states for educa-
tional purposes. The states indi-
vidually cannot furnish that equality
of opportunity which is fundamental
to our government. The wealth of
one state Is $4,000 for each child of
school age. while that Of another
state is only $4,000. Yet children
growing up in the later state may be-
come citizens in the former in a few
years. The greatest need for i'm
provement in education Is found
where there Is the least taxable
wealth.
4. While the details of education
al matters should be left almost en-
tirely in the hands of the Individual
states and local communities, yet II

MUNICIPAL ORDINANCES

AS Rawlins grows and it's population is continually increased
by new newcomers, the need for a printed book, containing the
city ordinances in full, for general distribution, becomes each day
more pronounced and acute. Not d day passes but that snna
question arises as to what is the municipal law on a given sub
ject and the penalties provided for attractions of the ordinance in
question.
During recent months several Wyoming cities and towns have
made a complete revision of their ordinances repeating such as
were found to be useless and obsolete and re enacting those which
were retained in full force and effect in such manner as to con-
form to changed conditions. One town found upon its books ordi-
nances dating back to territorial days, when gambling was
lcenced and many others will no doubt run across pre- Vostead
ordinances of many kinds regulating the traffic in Intoxicating
liquors. now happily a thing of the past.
Its to be hoped that at an early day the trustees of Rawlins
will take occasion to revise and codify its municipal laws and
when this has been accomplished, have the same published in con-
venient book form for the information and guidance of police Of
ficers, new residents and citizens generally.

The last official act of Justice OF
the Peace Dunlap before turning
over his office TO tho new Justice OF
the Peace. Fred c. Friend. was the
hearing OF the cases against two
colored men, Goldic Davis and Wal

Both these colorcd men have
caused the city and county officers
considerable trouble during the past
several months. In fact. they have
been a nuisance. Both have been in

RAWLINS BASKETBALL TEAM
LOSES FIRST GAME TO
CHEYENNE cl-12

After wining seven successive VIC
tories the Rawlins high school
basketball team went down to It's
first defeat OF the season at the
hands OF Cheyenne high school. So
far this season the Cheyenne team
has been indicated. Last Wednes-
day the squad representing Cheyenne
high school defeated the strong
North Platte, Neb.. team (which last
year won the championship OF
Nebraska) defeating them by a
score OF 23-13.
Cheyenne gathered the lead in the
first five minutes OF play when
Hirsig scored n field goal from be-
yond the center OF the floor. Chey-
enne played an offensive game
throughout the entire contest. work
Ing the ball down the floor as far as
possible and then taking long shots.
Over fifty per cent OF the field goals
made by Cheyenne we're scored from
the center of the floor. Rawlins
was in possession Of the ball at fire.
quent intervals. but failed to score
on many occasions owing to the
shots falling short OF the basket.
Very frequently the ball aimed for q
long shot At the basket would fall
short BY . few inches and pass out
Of bounds.
Cheyenne played . stellar brand OF
basketball throughout tho game and
appears TO have . team that will
loom up we'll in the future contests
that they have to play this season.
They have three regular players
from their team Of last year. a. well
~ three very capable sub~stitutes
from the old squad. Reports about
Cheyenne would seem to indicate
that the team Of this year In looked
upon as even stronger than the az
grcgation that represented them last
year.
Cheyenne papers commented AZ
follows on the sportsmanship OF the
Rawlins team: players on the
visiting team played ~ exceptionally

made few technical fouls (n0w
known a. violations) and no person
nj fouls were recorded against thcm.

On Monday. January first, the Laramie Boomerang passed
into the hands of Geo. R. Hand, who in the future will act as edit
or and publisher of that publication.
The new editor of The Boomerang has been engaged in the

was spent in California and Nevada For fou. years he was as
he came to Rawlins and accepted the position of news editor of
The Republican.
During the few months that Mr.. Hand was in Rawlins and
connected with The Republican he made a host of friends both for
himself and The Republican. AS a writer he is without a peer in
Wyoming and while we regret exceedingly to lose his services we
congratulate the people of Laramie in securing him as editor of
The Boomerang. That he will make a success of his venture in the
newspaper field in Laramie goes without saying.
