Of special interest to those living
on Federal boulevard in College
Crest, and nearby is the news that
the Denver and Interurban Electric
railway has decided to make FEEDER
al boulevard a place for stopping on

has also expressed its willingness, it
is said, to cooperate with the patrons
in putting up waiting station there.
The first stop will be made on Friday

THE FATE OF RUSSIA

The death of Nikolai Lenine, red
cause more anxiety in circlesETAOI
dictator of Russia, is the cause OF
numerous comments by the daily and
weekly press of the United States.
Lenine in 1917, assisted by Leon
Trotsky, set up soviet government
in Russia, establishing reign of ter
ror and ruthlessly killing scores Of
thousands who opposed communism.
Socialstc theories did not work out
as well as he had expected and even
the world revolution he advocated
was dismal failure. United States
refused to recognize the soviet after
it had been proven that Russian com
munists had planned the overthrow
of our government.
Lenine's death will likely have far
reaching results in Russia. Despite
the fact that for the past year he
had been almost without power, his
advice was always sought and he was
an idol of his followers.
There seems to be no one among
the radicals who can take his place.
Red leaders have lately been quar-
relipg among themselves, Trotsky be-
ing under actual arrest at his home.
Is the soviet government about to
crumble? Certain it is that Russia
will be watched with greater interest
in the future than it has been in the
past.

ONE TERM FOR THE PRESIDENT

Oscar w. Underwood, senator Of
Alabama, has declared in n. speech
thu. g--r 70 a one-telm limit to the
presidency, .avors lengthening
81 term to six or seven year. His
v .ons, as expressed in a recent Ak
ron, o., speech, follow:
"Change the system Of four-year
terms, make the term six or seven
years, make the executive ineligible
for reelection and you will have re-
moved all temptation to further per-
sonal ambition; you will have taken
out of the sphere of partisanship the
one man in the country who should
stand above and beyond it, and you
will have purified the very air Of pol
itics itself, by giving it worthier mo-
tives and loftier ideals"
Add to this the terrific physical
strains on the recent presidents. and
the suggestion seems to be worthy Of
serious consideration. Certainly it is
that with Mr.. Underwood voicing the
demand for change, politicians will
sit up and take notice Of it.

RUBBER CEMENT is
VALUABLE ARTICLE

One of the most important mater
ials used in any kind of automobile
tire or tube repair work is rubber ce-
mcnt, which is almost as interesting
a subject as the history of the rubber
industry itself.
An especially interesting feature
Of rubber cement, according to j. f.
Olson, of the Midwest Tire Shop,
local Miller tire dealer is that in
addition to being used for tire and
tube repairs, rubber cement is equal
ly valuable in repairing garding hose,
water bottles, overshoes, boots and
every other flexible rubber product.
Rubber cement is made by mixing
compounds (pigments, filler, etc.
with crude rubber. This mixture
goes to the cement mixing room in
slab form in rubber factories. In the
mixing room the rubber is broken
down or worked on a machine that
breaks the mass into small pieces so
as to prevent rough uneven mass.
This rubber is then thrown into a
vat, built on the same principles as a
milk churn and mixed with distilled
gasoline.
Rubber, before vulcanization, dis
integrates and loses its body when it
comes in contact with pure gasoline.
So, instead of pieces of rubber and
gasoline in the tank, it becomes one
integral mass of liquid, usually dark
brown in color. The result is rub
ber cement.-Advertisement.

That MIR. Gopperts prosecution of criminal cases had been sue
cesstul In that he had obtained 81 pleas of guilty and five con-

convictions and pleas of guilty had sent eight men to the pen

charges and that more fines had been assessed against defend
anus imam during any former twoyear period in that office.
While we never think of law enforcement as paying a profit in

VIOLATIONS has been handled by Mr.. Goppert at a cash profit to
the county. This has been possible by the aggressive manner
IN which the cases have been handled and also to the fact that
Mr.. Goppert has often chosen to dismiss cases rather than try
them when he did not consider the evidence sufficient to warrant
the necessary expense of trial.
While OF hall oft the county attorneys time is devoted to the pros-
ecutonf of cases. still a considerable portion Of it is given to those
matters. He must advise all county officers concerning any legal questions

concerning matters which do not result in any case being filed. 1t

NEW RESIDENCE AT
CODY FISH HATCHERY

Chief Assistant State Game and
Fish Commissioner Bliss Bayne was
in Cody Saturday looking after the
the details of the construction of
a new residence to accommodate
the superintendent of the local fish
hatchery. The building will be of
the bungalow type and is to cost
approximately $4,000. W. S. Oeland
of Cody is the contractor.
Mr.. Bayne states that contrary
to the opinion of many Park county
people the Cody fish hatchery is not
to be closed. On account of lack
of funds 1t was closed temporarily
this summer, but when the next
legislature convenes it is hoped that
sufficient funds will be appropriated
to operate the Cody fish hatchery
to its full capacity, as well as the
other ~hatcheries throughout the
state.
From here Mr.. Bayne goes to

signed by the conference held at

a longer period than any other di-
vine has been placed here at this
church. He is a sincere and en-
ergetic worker in his chosen pro-
fession. The winters were too
severe for the health of Mrs. Dry

hal he be sen to a more southern
location. Their many friends re
greet very much to lose these fine
people from the Cody community.

received as to who will be the new
minister to take Rev. Dryden's place

HOT SPRINGS COUNTY
TO FIGHT BOOTLEGGERS

That it is the intention of the IL
thorities of Hot Springs county tG
clean up the bootleggers and illegal
liquor manufacturers of that county
was evidenced at a recent meeting
of the county commissioners when
the sun of $4,000 was voted to be
expended in attorneys fees in the
apprehension and prosecution of the
persons who attempted the high
jacking of a quantity of liquor
seized by the county authorities and
stored at the ranch of Arthur
Gwynn. county commissioner. c. M
Henderson, one of the party of
hishjackers. lost his life in the bat
tie of bullets that waged for over
two hours.
The county commissioners have
employed c. Murane, a Casper
lawyer, who has been given $1,000
in the preliminary work in the ap-
p~rehension n prosecution of the
h~ighjackers.
