American citizen; has he the right
to try to help shape the deliberations
of an American legislative body?"
There was some confusion as to
whether the bills had been favorably
voted upon. Sammon cleared this
up by saying the two had been APP
proved by the committee Monday
evening but that further consider
alton had been asked. DeLoney
wanted to know If this committee
session had been publicly announced.
Let the committees get busy"
he said. "If the members don't
attend, they must consider them
selves bound by the action taken"
II agree with Mr.. DeLoney," said
Ben Scriven Of Sweetwater. "But
no one has the right to delay any
such actions. I don't mean to in
innate any thing crooked, but If a
bill is ordered reported back it
ought to be reported back. Let us
follow the regular order of business"
Mercer got through a motion to
give the committee n more day
to investigate the merits OF the sub
ject of the controversy. That ended
the fight for the time being.

FIREWORKS STARTED
AT CHEYENNE

CHEYENNE. Wyo.. Jan. Is
Open warfare between the coal oper-
ators and officials of district %,
United Mine Workers of America,
broke out in the lower house of
the legislature Wednesday. Charges
that the former were trying to hold
up two bills desired by the latter
were Indignantly denied. and one
OF the participants in the passage
at arms declared that, while he
didn't mean to charge anything
crooked" he did think events should
be allowed to take their natural
course and not be impeded by any
outside influences.
1t was all i've A.. W. Wilson's
H. B. "a, providing that the oper-
ators of coal mines shall furnish
shot firers in those collieries where
blasting is done. and Shrum's H. B.
20, providing "for the safety of
persons employed in and about coal
mines AND providing for the ex-
animation of persons seeking m
ployment as coal miners and to pre-
vent the employment of incompetent
persons as miners"
These two Sweetwater county
Democrats, both active in union la
Dor circles, got Minority Floor Lead
or Leslie Miller of Cheyenne to make
an official request as to why the
Mines and Mining committee, of
which Edelman OF Sheridan is the
chairman and Sammon, Mudgett,
McAvoy, Mapes, Shrum and Chap
man the other members, had not
complied with the House rules and
reported out the pair Of measure
within five days after 1t had re-
ceived them.
Edelan replied by asking for fur
ther time in order that the pro-
posals be given more consideration.
Both Wilson and Shrum objected.
The latter said the committee had
met and recommended that the two
do pass" but that the chairman
had held them back nevertheless.
McAvoy and Sammon sided with
Edelman. Sammon read the follow
ing telegram:
"Kemmerer. Wyo., Jan. 23.-Hon.

sentatives, Cheyenne, Wyo. Have

1t had been generally understood
that the measures were backed by
all the miners. Therefore the tele-
gram created a small amount of
CONSERVATION. But Shrum rallied to
the cause.
