VOTERS
HAVE APPLIED
@ BALLOTS

The county clerks office reports
that many registered voters who
will not be in the city election day
have made application for ballots
and have already cast their votes.
Yesterday over 20 voters had al
ready made application for ballots
and II Ia probable that within the
next few days between and
Tuesday ut least 80 voters will have
cast their ballots under the pro-
visions Of the new absent voter law
as passed by the last legislature.
This now law Ia proving very pop
ular with those who will be absent
from their home precinct on election
day although some features of the
law are condemned. The principal
fault TO be found with the Law M
II now stands Is tho provision that
a fee OF 30 cents shall be paid to
the county clerk before tho ballot
can be delivered to the voter. This
feature OF the law In unfair to those
who desire 70 vote and will I'M
doubtcdiy be changed by the next
legislature.

L. E. ARMSTRONG
EXPLAINS s. &
E. SITUATION

Attorney l.. E. Armstrong, who
returned the first of this week from
Washington, where he has been in
conference with members of the In
terstate Commerce Commission re-
garding the Saratoga 4 Encamp-
ment railway situation, addressed
the Rotarians at the regular weekly
luncheon Tuesday last.
Mr.. Armstrong stated that the stu
alton in connection with the S. & E.
Is anything but favorable but that
he believes that some way will be
worked out whereby the road will
be kept in operation.
An endeavor will be made by in
terested parties to have the owners
OF the road, Morse Bros, and the
Union Pacific agree upon a rental
which will permit the Union Pacific
to operate the road for another per-
iod OF years without too great a loss.
Mr.. Armstrong also stated that
the attitude of the Union Pacific in
connection with the operation OF this
railroad was very friendly and stat
ed that he believed that this COM
pany would continue operating the
road II satisfactory rental arrange
mentsacould~ be- made.
In order to keep this road from
being junked. however. 1t will be
necessary for every resident of the
Platte Valley as we'll as residents
Of the county rs a whole to keep on
the job and see that something defin-
lite is done in the near future, stated
Mr.. Armstrong.
The three-year lease under which
the Union Pacific has been operat-
ing the Saratoga & Encampment, *
pires tomorrow. The Union Pacific
has notified the that the
road will be turned back at midnight
tomorrow night. Morse Bros. state
that they will absolutely not con-
tinue operating the road SO prospects
are that there IL going to be an in
terruption OF service unless some
kind of an arrangement 10 made be-
tween the U. p. and Morse Bros.
tomorrow.

ROADS
SHOW EFFECT OF
PROPER WORK

During the past several years Car
bon county has been fortunate in
the matter OF proper and legal loca-
Ions OF county roads.
We have In this county a complete
system OF county highways and have
on record in the county clerks office
a large mileage OF county roads. Be
cause OF this fact Carbon county has
been enabled to ecure considerable
more mileage on the Federal Aid
10 system than would have other
wise been the case.
The man who deserves most OF the
credit for this fact Is Jas. w. Wisda,
county surveyor OF Carbon county.
Mr.. Wisda has worked exceptional
ly hard to lay u n system OF high
ways for this county and to SEQ that
they are recorded properly.
Mr.. Wisda II a candidate on the
Republican ticket for reelection as
county surveyor and at the election
next Tuesday he will undoubtedly be
reelected by his usual large majority.

days, October Z. s, Q, 10, and 18th
l,159 voters had signed the list, leav-
ing 9l5 to register on October 23rd
and Gath. There were 1853 persons
who registered in 1922. giving an in
crease of 81 in this years registra-
ton. Based on these figures, Rawlins
can conservatively claim a population
of 1000 inhabitants.
Due to various reasons a lumber
OF persons were unable to register
on the days designated for registra-
ton this year and it must also be
realized that a number of persons
who lived in Rawlins have moved
to Parco in the past few months. Liv-
ing in Rawlins. 1t has been hard to
realize h immense growth of this
city in the past few years but to a
person who has been away for a short
time and returned to Rawlins the
growth is more discernable. Almost
every week during the summer the
city clerk issued building permits
and Rawlins steadily built up in all
directions, especially in Park Hill
addition. Even with the number of
houses which were built and the num-
Der of residences which were turned
into apartment houses. there were
not enough rooms to take care of the
persons VINO came TO Rawlins to live.
Many OF them. after spending days
looking for houses in which to live,
left the city to make their homes
in other towns.
Along with the growth of Rawlins
and the increased number of voters
as the registration has clearly
brought out. there has been a move
over the entire country to get the
citizens more interested in their
government and to take an active part
In exercising their franchise. In no
other way can we be assured of n
true representative government. In
this move the voters of Rawlins have
heartily responded and with the COM
ing election the citizens can feel as
sured OF getting the candidates who
are the choice Of the majority. not
the minority as 1t has happened from
time to time in years past.
The registration of the precincts
of Rawlins are as follows:

BECKWITH
DIED RESULT OF
AUTO ACCIDENT

Little Anna May Beckwith. four
year old daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
Harry f. Beckwith, died at 4:3O Sun
from u basal skull fracture which
she received Saturday afternoon when
she was hit by a Ford delivery truck.
The accident occurred on State street
near the Cash and Carry Grocery
when Peter Genacopulos, who was
driving the delivery truck owned by
the Independent Grocery store, swung
around a team of horses and a
wagon. hitting the small girl. The
body was shipped from Martins
Home Mortuary Monday evening to
Webster City. Iowa, where burial
will AXE place.
At an inquisition held Tuesday
morning of this week, 1t was found
thai; Qenacopulos turned on to State
street near the Cash and Carry
grocery store about $3.50 Saturday
afternoon and he was travelling at
a good rate of speed, going east,
when he passed the horses and wagon
which were also going east. AS he
passed the wagon he came upon two
children who were either crossing the
street or we're playing on the street.
This point Is not clear for there were
very few eye witnesses of the scene
II the attorney who is defending
0enacopulos would not permit him to
give the story on the witness stand
at the Coroner's inquest. 1t is be-
lieved that ~Genacopulos made a quick
turn to avoid hitting one of the child
rem, but in doing So he hit the Beck
with girl. His truck turned owe sew
eral times coming to a complete stop
on all four wheels. 1t vas not brought
out as to whether the child was hit
by the machine before 1t turned over
or whether the girl was pinned I'M
der the ear as II went over. The
bruises IN the child. however, show
no evidences of having been crushed
under the machine.
Immediately after the accident
Dr.. kell was called and he arrived at
the scene about 10 minutes later.
The father of the child arrived about
the same time as DR.. Kell and the
child was taken to the Bechwith
home which was only a short dis
lance away. About an hour later she
was taken to the hospital but very
little hope was held for her recovery
for II was found that h had n basal
skull fracture, one OF her legs had
been broken. her body and face were
badly bruised and II was feared that
she had Internal Injuries. The child
never regained consciousness from the
time OF the accident until her death.

morning.

REPUBLICAN, VICTORY LOOKS
CERTAIN In MOST Counties

CHEYENNE, WYOMING, OCTOBER 29-The last week
of the campaign is at hand and it seems probable that the
Republican Party will carry at least twenty of the twenty
three counties in Wyoming. It would not be surprising if it
carried twenty-five. The Presidential Ticket is safe by a ma
jority that will approximate that given to President Harding
in 1920: The Congressional Ticket will carry by almost equal
majorities. 1t is safe to say that three-fourths of the men,

Protection for the Farmer

Almost everything that Is used

almost everything that the farmer
raises is protected, from the nuts
and citrus fruits OF the Pacific Coast,
through h e sugar. grain and animal
products of the central west, to the
dairy n tobacco products of the
east. Without such protection many
Of these farm products would be de-
strOyed by foreign competition.'"-
