PHILOSOPHERS UPON DIS
MISSAL OF CODY MARSHAL

Laughable and serious reflection is
presented to the editor of The Nee
teetse News by the report that Harry
Wizard, the town marshal of Cody,
has been kicked out of office, made
an industrial orphan as it were. We
do not know what Harry had been
guilty of for to US he has always ap-
peared good-natured and deserving.
The laughable part is the fact that
some people hail the wearing of a
political inter the sublimist glory
that earth affords. The serious part
consists in losing ones bread and but
ter or, otherwisely speaking, ones
job because a political sceptre was
not danced to.-Meeteetse News
