OF GOVERNOR TO GUST
STATE OFFICERS Is UPHELD

The Wyoming Supreme court has
held constitutional the statute of
the 1921 legislature authorizing the
governor to remove county officers
in the event that they neglect or
fail to perform their duties. The de
cision was on question referred by
the district court of Laramie coun-
ty after counsel for Fred Wycoft,
prosecuting attorney of Hot Springs
county, had applied to the district
court for an injunction restraining
Governor Ross from proceeding
with a hearing to determine whetl.-
err Wycoff should be removed from
office on charges brought by State
Law Enforcement Commissioner NJ.
C. Wachtel. Wachtel's charges al
lege that Wycoff was intoxicated
on occasions and hat he
neglected and refused to perform
duties of the prosecutors office.
Pending decision by the supreme
court, Governor Ross deferred the
Wycoff hearing, a new date for
which, it is expected, will be set
within a few days.
The Supreme court held constitu-
tional the act of the 1921 legisla-
ture authorizing the governor to re-
nove elective county officers from
office for cause. did not rule on
several other questions which were
transmitted to it coincidentally, in
Guiding whether a district court has
authority to issue an injunction re

EFFECTIVE SERVICE in COUNTY
ATTORNEYS OFFICE COMMENDS
e.. COPPERT FOR SECOND TERM
A Study of the Records in the Clerk of Court S
Office Reveals Most Satisfactory Admin
i~stration by County Attorney

If there is any one thing which
should commend a public officer to
voters, and merit for him a second
term, it should be the record made
by him during such term as he has
served as county officer. A study
of the records in the clerk of
courts office discloses that during
the 20 months during which time
e. j. Goppert has served the coun-
ty as county and prosecuting attor-
ney more real results have been
obtained than during any like per
iod in the history of Park county.
The court records show that since
the organization of Park county
there has been 425 cases on the
criminal docket in all that time.
Seven of these cases were venued
to Park county from other counties.
These AIS cases represent 166 fell
ony charges and 252 misdemeanor
charges. OF these cases Mr.. Cop
pert has filed SO felony cases and
~ misdemeanor cases.
There have been but As criminal
cases tried in the District court of

These cases resulted in % acquit-

WYOMING SCHOOLS TEACH WYOMING
PROBLEMS" SAYS DIR. A.. G. CRANE
margaret Hayden)

DR.. A. G.. Crane, president of the
University of the State of Wyoming,
spoke to institute teachers and Cody
people at the assembly room of the
high school on Monday night, his
theme being THE Ethics of the
Public School," wherein he stressed
as perhaps of paramount import
ance the aim of the university to
teach students how to live indivi-
dually and at the same time do
team work. Dealing with the
mind" said DR.. Crane, "is the big
gest business there is"
On Tuesday morning DR.. Crane
again addressed the assembly on
referring to it as the upper part Of
the public school systematic 18th
14th, 18th and 18th grades.
Wyoming is fortunate in having
at the head of it's great university
a man of such a clear practical
vision and ~undoubted loyalty to the
ideals of education in a democra ".
DR.. Crane first pointed out the
benefits of having the university all
on n campus instead of being dis
tributed throughout the state, as is
the case in many places. One adj
vantage is the reduction of political
friction and rivalry; a second. and
very great. advantage. is the ease
with which students may change
their work from one college to
another, without loss of many cred
its, separation from friends or ad-
ditional expense. Many students
when they leave high school do not
know where they belong, and are
feeling their way" being all on
one campus they may become fami-
liar with the work of the various
colleges. On this combined campus
all types of thought-are correlated

NELSON AND MOSES WILL
ENTER FALL CAMPAIGN
Two Powell Men Announce that
They will Answer Call of
Voters and be Candidates

Senator S. A. Nelson has an
nounced that he will be a candidate
for reelection to the office of state
senator from Park county at the
general election this fall and Fred
Moses, a popular young bank clerk
of the project town will seek the
county clerks job. The names OF
both of these gentlemen were writ
ten in on the primary ballots by the
Republicans of the county and they
feel that the call is sufficient to
justify them placing their namea
before the voters for the positions
named.
Senator Nelson needs no introduce
ton to the people of Park county,
whom he has served so well during
the first term of his office. With
the experience already gained III
legislative work at Cheyenne and at
Washington, where he has repre-
scented the people of his community
on reclamation project matters. Mr..
Nelson is the type who can and will
best represent the voters of the
county. He is a clear thinker, a
forceful speaker, and a man in ev-
cry way qualified for the office
which he seeks. His work as a
leading banker of Powell has placed
him in close touch with the needs
of the agriculturist and it will be
his most earnest ~endeavor, if elect
ed, to C the greatest amount
of relief for the taxpayers of the
county thru the passage of much
needed legislation.
During his residence in PARK
county Senator Nelson has taken a
leading part in everything which
looked to the developing and up
building of the county. During
times when the people of the Pow
ell community were passing thru
discouraging times, he made several
trips to Washington, that their
problems might be presented to
congress at first hand. Mr.. Nelson
is an eX-service man and an Amer
lean thru and thru. He is the Re
publican candidate for reelection,
and upon a record of achievement
during his first term will ask for
the support of Park county voters
at the general election in November.
Mr.. Moses is one of the younger
men of the Powell community. For
