fact that American public finances
has been admirably managed"
Splendid! We thank you.
The high degree of national pros
perity was enjoyed after two years
of full Republican control Of both
branches of the Government and af-
ter four years of Republican control
of Congress.
The admirable management Of the
public finance was under the general
policies of Harding and Coolidge
with expert direct control of the
treasury by Secretary Mellon. These
officials were aided by Budget Di-
rectors Dawes and Lord, and, in
Congress, by a House Committee on
Appropriations headed by Madden
and a Senate Committee on Approp-
riations headed by Warren.
There we have a team of workers
that can't be beat.
Why change?
Joint Institutes in Several Counties
Many joint Teachers Institutes
will be held in the State in the near
future. Sheridan and Johnson
counties will hold Institutes in Buff
falo the last week in August. Crook
Campbell and Weston counties are
uniting in Newcastle. Niobrara and
" 80 hAt' - So,t L "a tAto
year the meeting will be in Lusk.
The four Big Horn Basin counties
will invade Cody. $50 strong. Lin
coin, Sweetwater, Uinta and Sublette
will unite and hold Institute with the
State Teachers Association during
the third week in October. In these
larger meetings there are found to
be inspiration in the larger number
attending and better instruction,
through combining available funds
for the employment of instructors.
President VIII Not Campaign
DO the days work" is the Presi-
dents motto. II is not his purpose
to make a speech-making campaign
over the United States. He will de-
liver some addresses but will not
neglect important duties at Wash
ington. He is remaining there dur
ing the heated term while other
candidates are ~rusticating In the
mountains and preparing their cam
paign oratory. Calvin Coolidge's
~broadcasting will be done by elo-
quent deeds rather than high flown
oratory. He will be elected IL the
people like his record better than
they like promises from other candi-
dates and IL they see no reason for
swapping off President Coolidge for
some one else. The choice will be
between n record n a promise.
When and where the President will
speak Is for the future to determine.
Any place he speaks Is likely to be
less than a days ride from Wash
ington. for always he will keep in
mind that he has the presidential
duties to administer. The brunt of
the speaking campaign will be likely
to fall on Charles G.. Dawes who Is
n Rooseveltian type of speaker. Re-
quests for Dawes to speak are pour
ing into Republican National Head
quarters from everywhere. He is ex-
pected to make a big hit in the West.
especially in the agricultural states.
Dawes will not wall about the dis
tress OF the past but will give cures
for economic ills.
