dollars per month for these ex-
penses during the months of july
August and September.
The total for all funds on July /
1922, was $14,588, 560.87 as con
trasted with Sl5,447 ,O37 $50 foi
1928.
The pocketbook for the state
university, the university fund in
come which is separate from the
general fund, contains S56I,0lI.52.
This will be increased during the
year by about $1,7O0,0OO from the
three-eighths mill tax which reverts
automatically to the university fund.
In addition there will be funds from
tuition and fees added to this.
1t is understood on good authority,
however, that unless this fund is in
creased by still other funds it will
not be sufficient for the coming
year. This might come from two
sources. Either a special session
of the legislature might be called to
appropriate additional funds or
through certain construction of
the law money might be appropriate
ed from the general fund. BY
means of this Interpretation of the
law special session might be
averted.
Almost the same situation exists
in the special fund for the normal
schools. There is at present $500,
1888 for the expenses of the
normal schools during the coming
year. This will be increased also
from the mill taxes, fees and other
sources but unless there is very
economical administration of the
normal schools it will not suffice
and the normals will have to be
provided for from another source.
The service recognition fund, used
for paying veterans of the world
war, has a balance of 882,15881.
The teachers insurance and retire
ment fund has $440, 245.77 and the
educational bonus fund $1,008,-
1868.
Interest received by the state on
funds during the quarter ending
June 80 increased $4,000 over the
corresponding period OF year ago.
For the quarter ending June 80,
1928, there was received in interest
$109,740.94.

The Wrong Picture.

1t seems ridiculous to hear polltl-
cal and labor agitators get up and
tear the air expounding on the fight
between labor and capital To
hear their speeches and public
utterances, an uniformed person
would have a vision of the wealthy
men in this nation hiding breast
works of money bags and fighting
off starving millions who are trying
to scale this wall Of gold.
In the next breath, we read in our
daily papers that rich employer in
New York has turned over his cloth
ing business to few employees
Automatically these employees must
become the hated capitalists and
take their place behind the barriers
of gold which in turn the workmen
they hire will strive to tear down.
Is not this the wrong picture to
flash constantly before the eyes or
millions? Is not a capitalist any
individual who has saved fifty or a
hundred dollars and through wise
investment, either in peanut wagon
a bootblack stand or an industrial or
government bond caused that money
to earn more dollars?
Is the man who saves one hundred
dollars which he puts in public
utility or sawmill property where
with money contributed by hundreds
of others like himself, it employs
thousands of people at good wages,
a bad citizen? Yet he is a capitalist
Just as truly as the man who invests
a hundred thousand or a million
dollars.
When there is removed the incen-
tive for the man with one hundred
dollars to increase that amount to
one thousand and then to ten thou
sand dollars, and so on there is also
removed the chance Of reward that
is the stake for which the average
ablebodied American strives.
The majority Of capitalists today
started as hand workers, and yet
according to the radical politician.
and labor agitators the salvation Of
the country lies in denying to other
the chance which these men had tf
benefit themselves and incidentally
humanity in general through th'
modern conveniences they have
given to the humblest American
citizen.-EX.

GUERNSEY. Wyo.. Oct. 10.-It
takes a heap of nerve to trample a
rattlesnake to death. Ed Hisey has
twelve times that much nerve.
While riding the range near here
Hisey saw what he Judged was a
large RATHER lying in a coil. Nc
stones or club was near. SO he de
cided to trample the snake to death,
taking a chance that his high boots
would protect him from its fangs,
Dismounting and approaching closer,
he discoveed that there was not
one large snake but six medium sized
ones. Regardless. he went into ac'
ton with his boots and crushed the
six. but before he completed the job
six other rattlers appeared from the
nearby grass. There was nothing
to do but go ahead with the peril.
Gus slaughter. so Hisey tiled into
the additional six. He dispatched
all without being bitten and has
enough rattlers as souvenirs OF tho

EVILS OF DOPE TRAFFIC TOLD

Shaken by the furies OF an insati

along the alley-ways of misery,
shrieking for the potent narcotic
that will momentarily alleviate their
agony.
And this-not only in a notorious
Hollywood colony or down through
dimly-lighted and fantastic China
town-but here in the west in
Casper.
But recently the combined forces
of local. county and federal authori'
ties have in this city seized vio'ators
of the Harrison anti-narcotic act.
out of their degradation. out of the
dark places of Casper have these
derelicts been taken. They have
been sent to Cheyenne where in the

for their own %depravity and the de
pravity they have thrown others
into.

how leeringly looms the head OF
dope. And yet the menace. so close
steals in the low places of the city,
