REQUISITION
NOT HONORED
BY GOVERNOR

The following clipping from .
Trenton. N. j.. paper will prove Of
interest to readers of The Republi-
can:
Governor Silxer yesterday refused
to honor a reputation of Governor
Ross. of Wyoming. for the extradi-
ton of Geo. G. Fleming. a veteran
of the World War. who was recently
arrested at Princeton, the home Of
Mrs. Jennings family. charged with
having embezxled $101.00 belonging
to an American Legion post at Raw
Inns. Wyo.
1t developed at the hearing before
the governor that Fleming had acted
as Chairman of a dance committee
at a benefit for the Legion which net
ted $500 with some outstanding
collections to be made. Fleming
came East for business reasons
which he explained without account
ing for the dance receipts. He said
1t was his intention to remit all the
money when collections were COM
pleted and also to waive a claim of
$4,000 of his own because Of the poor
showing made at the dance. He
said no demand had been made for
the money and he had no idea there
was anything wrong until his arrest.
Upon advice of counsel he then re-
mitted the entire amount OF the
claim to avoid further trouble.
Governor Silzer was advised by
Attorney General K~atzenbach that
the whole affair was so trivial in
character and the attempt to charge
a crime apparently SO far fetched
that a reQuisition should not be
granted. This view was shared by
Governor Silzer."

BROWNS HILL
4. HOMESTEADER IS
VISITOR HERE

Last week Ned F. Steel, one of
the prominent homesteader's of the
Browns Hill country in southern
Carbon county, was q business visi-
tor In Rawlins.
Mr.. Steel is . typical example of
the kind of men who came 10 Wyom-
ing following the close of the World
War and settled on vacant govern
ment land and are making out of
this land wonderful homes.
Mr.. Steel Is a world war veteran.
q man who has had considerable ed
ucation and a man whose highest
ambition is to make for himself a
home and a living in the place where
he has selected.
Just a few years ago the Browns
Hill section was nothing but range
land. with absolutely nc residents on
It. Now. however. the entire section
Is covered with small farms and some
of the crops which are raised would
prove a revelation to most people of
the county. Most of these farmers
are ~ex-service men who settled on
the land after the close OF the war.
They have gone through several
years Of hard work and discourage
ments but at the present time con-
ditiOns r much brighter for these
men and none of them would sven
think of giving up their farms.
