WHITNEY, DESIGN NOT
REJECTED BY CODY
MISLEADING STORIES CIV
EN- WIDE CIRCULATION
CODY FOLK WANT WEST
ERN HORSE MINOR
Tailed

A story is being published over the
falo Bill Memorial committee reject
ed the design made by Mrs. Harry
Payne Whitney or the ground that
the horse was too fat and looked like
a polo pony.
kilograms from the New York
World and other eastern papers have
been received at the Enterprise ask
ing for an interview with the commit
tee and further information. No re-
plies were sent, however, as the COM
mittee have not rejected the design.
The only foundation for the story
being circulated is the letter which
the committee sent Mrs. Whitney of
fering such suggestions as occurred to
its members.
When Mrs. Whitney was in Cody
comforting with the committee she
especially requested that it should
feel free to suggest and criticize.
The committee. Knowing Mrs. Whit
ney is not the sort of woman to take
offense at honest opinions, has done
so, speaking from the viewpoint OF
westerners.
1t was thought that the horse of
the design looked too EASTERN; that
it should be more of the cayuse type,
the range horse which Buffalo Bill I'M
doubtedly rode at the time he was
scouting, which is the period Mrs.
Whitney has chosen to depict him.
Also it vas suggested that when a
western horse is pulled up as shorply
as the horse in the model, it lunches
its feet to stop, rather than throws
them forward. The stirrup, too, is
eastern rather than the larger, leath-
err covered stirrup of the western
stock saddle. There were other min
or points wherein the ideas of the
committee differed with those of the
artist, but as the details of the fin
ished statue have not been worked
out yet, they can easily be changed
if thought advisable.
There has been some ~disappoint-
ment expressed that the design did
not show the colonel as his friends
and the world knew him, with his
strikingly erect bearing and charac-
teristic pose in the saddle. This was
discussed at the meeting with Mrs,
Whitney and while she was very will
ling to follow the wishes of the COM
mittee, she seemed to be in favor of
picturing him as he was when making
western history, rather that after
ward when he was the Snowman and
a public character.

ARRESTED FOR LIVING
WITH HIS OWN Wife
WALTER FORD PRODUCES HIS
MARRIAGE LICENSE WHEN
CHARGED WITH STATU-
TORY OFFENSE

Park county's extremely active
prosecuting attorney w e reached
himself somewhat when he issued a
warrant for the arrest of Walter
Ford last Friday, charging him with
living with a woman not his wife.
While going about his business Mr..
Ford was served with a warrant in
the Cody Trading company store and
taken by the sheriff to Judge Mars
tons office where the above charges
were read to him.
Mr. Ford promptly denied his guilt.
+. j. Goppert, prosecuting attorney,
had instructed Sheriff LOOMS and
Judge Marston to call him If Mr..
Ford pleaded not guilty.
He was therefore called on the tel
ephone but refused TO come down,
The sheriff also called Mr.. Goppert
and he still found himself unable to
leave.
Later Mr.. Ford produced his mar,
riage and Judge Marston, noting
from the aforesaid document the tn,
prisoner and his wife had been mar
ried in Thermopolis more than a yeai
and a half ago, dismissed the case.
Mr.. Ford has been living at Vile,
for some years where he has charg,
of the property belonging to the En-
alpac Oil company.

While taking the rest cure in the

When the flames came close enough

in the bosoms of the common, every
day citizen who does not belong to
organizations and is not given to
speech making and letter writing, that
person must be blind indeed who AN
not see hat it will be a big issue in
the coming campaign, perhaps even
bigger than our foreign policy and
tariff.
Prohibitionists and political lead
ers who declare that it is all settled,
and that shortly people will have for
gotten that there ever was such a
until they are black in the face with
out convincing anybody who takes
the trouble to get around, hobnob
with all classes and learn their real
feelings.
In our humble opinion, the liberal
element will be. the deciding factor
in the presidential election as it was
in our own city and county election.
There are many people who never
voted the Democratic ticket in their
lives, and have never been able to i'm
agine themselves doing so in a pres
idential election, who + already de-
claring that they intend to vote that
way if the Democrats put up a can
didate who is not in sympathy with
the fanatism which has deprived the
individual of the right to act accord
ing to his own judgment and cons
cience, established a spy system rem
iniscent of the days of the Doges and
put fear and cowardice, deceit and
contempt for the law and its officers
into the hearts of people who are
naturally honest, loyal, law-abiding
citizens.
On the other hand, if the Repub-
hcans put up a candidate who is not
deceived into thinking that the noise
made by the Ubiquitous and vocifer-
Gus prohibitionists is the voice of the
people, he will draw the liberal Dem
ocrats who are taking the same indie
pendent stand in the matter of voting
as are the liberal Republicans.
That person must be deaf, dumb
snd blind who does not realize that
there has been n change of sentiment
since the American people voted for
prohibition. Those whe were in ia
vor of some regulation of the liquor
business never thought to see the day
that they could not buy an ounce of
brandy in lines except at an orbitant
price and a doctors prescription.
They did not dream that an army of
sneaks and spies would be turned
loose upon the country to listen at
key-holes and pussyfoot through al
leys.
If the American people are not
getting their neck bowed and about
ready to demand a change from these
intolerable and un-American condi-
lions, then the driver of this here We
hicle is way off her trolley.
Rebellion against the fanatics and
their laws has broken out in Salt
Lake City, Utah, where three men
were arrested recently for smoking
cigarettes in public.
The Liberty League of Utah" was
organized after a great mass meeting
where plans were laid to fight to n
finish the absurd laws on the statute
books of the state. The gathering
was preceded by a big parade; bands
played, flags waved and hundreds of
banners were carried bearing slogans
of disapproval, while at noon whistles
shrieked their protest against laws
that had taken the liberties of the
people.

campaign in this valley, has

BOYS ARRESTED FOR
STEALING The EATS

A number of Monte Vista
youths were arrested last Sum
day for stealing some of the re-
freshments provided for the
members of the Lutheran
church. The boys were ar
raigned before Judge Batch
elder and plead guilty to the
charge. They were fined a
small amount and given a lee
ture and warning by Assist
ant Prosecuting Attorney Twy-
ford. Most every boy at some
time in his life has been guilty
OF some petty misdemeanor
but decides to "cut it out"
when he realizes that he is
causing suffering to his par
ents and taking the chance of
losing his good name in his
home community. We have
faith in these boys and believe
they will "go straight"

Monte Vista Holds Patriotic
Observance Of Funeral Hour
OF Nation S Beloved President

In accordance with the pro-
clamation of Mayor Lague. all
business houses of Monte Vista
closed and all commercial ac-
tivity ceased for two hours
Friday afternoon during which
memorial services in honor of
Warren G. Harding were held
at the Armory.
A very large crowd was
present at the service which
opened by the color guard
from Troop A marching to the
stage and the observance of
one minute of silence and the
invocation by Rev. Sigmon.
John Greene of the American
Legion announced the speak
ers. Mayor Lague made a
brief talk in which he appro-
priately called attention to the
rural attitude of Mr.. Harding
and said, 1--WE have truly lost
a friend-one who knew the
problems of the small town
and community"
Walter R. Wilson, president
of the commercial club, gave
an address in which he men,
toned some of Harding's ac-
complishments during his ad-
ministration which stamped
him as a safe" man, one who
stood firm for law and order,
and classed him as "a man
among men,"
