Meeteetse

Last week Harry Thayer pur-
chased the mail contract from Nee
teetse to Cody from L. c. Freeman.
In the deal Mr.. Freeman purchased
the White truck from Mr.. Thayer
and Mr.. Thayer took over the small
White truck that has been Used on
the route. The change in trucks
was caused by the one owned by
Mr.. Thayer being too large for use
on the route. Mr.. Thayer has had
considerable experience in trans
porting mails and no doubt will be
equal to any emergency that may
arise. The contractor is well known
both in Meeteetse and in Cody and
is in a position to give the patrons
of the route the best of service.
The smiling face of Joe Wolf, the
veteran driver on the route will be
missed in the future when the daily
stage arrives. The new contractor

COOLIDGE WILL Be PEOPLES CHOICE
STANDS FIRM FOR GOOD G0VERNM'T
All Campaign Issues will be Probably Lost Sight
of When Convention Chooses Calvin
Coolidge as Presidential Nominee

friends say he is too i'll t o head
such a movement.
The Republicans figure that a
third party movement will draw
more from the Democrats than from
the Republicans. In a three-corner
fight, with President Coolidge on a
conservative platform. and a Demo-
crat like McAdoo on an anti-protec-
ton and soak the rich" platform,
the Republicans would gain thou
sands of votes from the Democrats.
The situation is improving for the
Republicans because Mr.. Coolidge's
stock is going up SO rapidly. The
business interests are determined to
put a safe and conservative mar
like Mr.. Coolidge in the White
House to hold down the lid. Unless
something entirely unexpected hap
pens, President Coolidge will be the
next president, succeeding himself.
The battle for congress will be
bitter. Indications are that Presi-
dent Coolidge will carry the house
along with him and elect enough
Republicans to hold control. The
senate is in the same situation as
the house. President Coolidge and
conservatives will save beth houses,
1t is expected.
Criticism of congress Is not justi-
ned. AS regards real important
business, both senate and house
have done well. The only great dan
ger to the country is that the Re-
publicans and all conservative vot-
ers will be negligent and will fail
to vote. If the Democrats and rad
icals fuse and control the next con-
gress, goodbye to business conf
dence and prosperity.
, 1924-05-14

AS the time for holding the
national convention approaches, the
question is being raised: What in
all probability will be the campaign
issues?
The first thing that comes to the
mind of the average person is the
so-called scandals in connection with
the oil land leases. the office of the
attorney general. h war veterans
bureau and the investigation of the
Investigator, Senator Wheeler.
The impression prevails now that
III of these investigations nave re-
solved themselves into personal poll
tics, not affecting in the slightest
degree the principles involved in
the campaign.
AS to the oil land leases. most
people have forgotten them, realiz-
ing that nearly all the testimony
was hearsay. The public is willing
to wait until the court decides
whether the leases are valid or not.
That may not be rendered until
after election. In the meantime
other matters will crowd hat off
the first page of the newspapers.
Criminal proceedings against Fall
are progressing. but most people
are willing to let the court punish
as fits the crime, If any crime has
been committed. Forbes already is
under Indictment. The charges
against former Attorney General
D%augherty thus far have fallen f1at.
This is the verdict of the public.
In the meantime the several state
primaries have made President
Coolidge's nomination at Cleveland
almost a certainty. This brings the
real issue up to President Coolidge.
For what does he stand?
First. he is a protectionist. In
his recent New York address he
stated hat he believed in taking
care of America first, and in main
tanning American standards of liv-
ing. He recently raised the import
duties on wheat and wheat flour.
Second. he is against Americas
entrance into the league of nations,
or having anything to do with the
politics of Europe.
Third. he favors giving Europe
economic and financial aid from
private American sources. He is op-
posed to any further government
aid.
a Fourth, he believes in tax reduc-
ton by reducing the high taxes IN
large incomes to a point where they
will yield the largest volume of
revenue. He does not believe in the
doctrine Soak the rich"
Fifth, he is in favor of helping
the farmers financially through
loans from private cooperating in
situations or agencies.
Sixth. he favors economy in gov
eminent expenditures and has re-
peatedly pointed out the decrease
in the cost of operating the govern
ment machine since March 4, 1921.
The soldiers bonus will probably
not be an issue at all. Both parties
by large majorities favor an insur-
ance plan bonus.
There are signs that one of the
big issues will be a Republican chal-
lenge to the so-called radical group
now masquerading as Republicans.
President Coolidge's friends say
that the time las come to meet the
one large issue of a conservative VS..
a radical program for the Repub-
lican party.
If this test comes early in the
fight, will it force the nomination
of a third party ticket with a rad
ical candidate for president and
vice-president? The only man who
can command n third party fol
lowing of size is LaFollette. and his

The National Association of

a ban on direct advertising by
radio.
The regulation has been observed
fairly well.
But last night the officers Of the
association must have frowned II
they listened in to WCAP.
Under the regulations. employ.

whom the name Of the product to
be advertised IL given Is per.

from these ads. For instance,

Singers are employed by music
publishing houses to sing new
songs to the radio audience. That
also Is permissible. Hotels adver.

Often the line between direct and
indirect advertising may be very
lightly drawn. But in fairness to
the listeners in the stunt should
be clever enough to dispel the
