NoT FAIR

Neither the list of candidates nor the recorded vote today IS a
fair indication of how the race will be. Subscriptions and coupons
have been turned in for some who as yet have made no apparent
actual effort themselves. Another few have tried to skim the
cream Eventually the election will narrow down to the real work
ers-the real prize winner.
Some contestants there are who will get along very well for a
few days. They will bubble over with enthusiasm. But it won't
last. They'll go out and "get their ears knocked down" once or twice
and they'll be ready to quit. They haven't got the stuff in them
that will urge them on. And rather than admit their deficiency
they come in or write in and say Il find I haven't got the time"
Others will content to let their friends vote for them when they turn
in their subscriptions over the counter in The Tribune office. Some
will start but will not finish.

The railroad company enters into competitive bidding

will profit immensely. Some company is bound to Sc

railroad sorely needed by central and northern Wyo-
