DEMOCRATS ATTACK
G. 0. P. BLOOM VOTE
Committees Attempt to Gust House
Member for Chandler Called
"0utrage."

Charging that a "palpable outrage
is committed, "unwarranted by the
facts" in the party vote OF the re-
publican members OF the elections
committee recommending that Repre-
sentative Sol Bloom of New York be
ousted from his seat and that 1t be
given to former Representative Wal
ter. NJ. Chandler. a vigorous protest
has been made by the three demo-
cratic members of that committee.
In a statement signed by them and
made public today the findings of the
six republicans on the committee
which investigated charges OF fraud
and irregularity in connection with
Mr.. Blooms election over Mr.. Chand-
ler are directly challenged.
The democrats declared that In
order to make it appear that
Chandler had a plurality three elec-
ton districts were thrown out en-
tirely without justification. This ac-
tion, the report declared, was un-
warranted upon the facts, under the
law and in good conscience. and was
in violation of the evidence sub
mitted."
The evidence given the committee,
in the opinion of the democrats
failed to substantiate Chandler
charges in any particular.
A House vote ON the contest may
come next week.

taken by the second woman speaker,
the Duchess Of Atholl, conservative.
She declared against granting the
ballot to young women when they
reached the age of twenty-one be-
.ause she said such an extension of
.he franchise at the present time
would give the woman voters ma
jority over the men and would appear
to be an attempt by the women to
take advantage of the fact that $780,
900 men had been lost during the war.
Mrs. Margaret Wintringhan, labor,
disagreed with her conservative sis
ter in the view that to pass this bill
would be taking advantage of the
men. She said a great argument for
giving the women the vote in 1918
was their work during the war.

did it keep him from going to con-

Sees With Heart
Ever since his accident, his wife
has been his eyes" But when the
greatest honor of his career is con
ferred upon him, Schall is going to
let Betty share it with him.
Often during his campaign
speech has he told the story Of her
climbing into his lap, rubbing her
nose against his and saying:
Daddy, can't you see me?"
No, little curly head, I can't"
Then after moment of silence,
SO he relates, she said:
"Well, your heart sees me,
doesn't it, daddy"
And he assured her it did.
One could almost hear a pin fall
whenever he told this story to the
voters.

BOY SCOUTS
RETURNED FROM
CAMP SUNDAY

The Boy Scouts who were camped
near Silver Lake for the week Bird
to 10th returned tor Rawlins on Sun
day after having spent II of the
best weeks vacation and encamp-
ment in the history of their young
organization. The week was filled
with amusement, hikes, fishing and
some work, as the boys had to do
their own cooking, dish washing and
guard standing.
During the week several hikes
were taken one to Lake Marie and
another to Lookout Tower along with
several short trips. The reports are
that the Scout organization harbors
many good fishermen and several
times the Winchester Store prize was
in danger of being taken by a Scout.
The instructive part of the camp
was not neglected for during the last
few days of the camp the boys stood
two hour guard duty, this being one
of the requirements of the organ
ization. Although at the time the
cooking and dish washing did not
seem to- be one of the pleasures OF
the camp, the boys learned many
valuable things in this line and now
they can look back on the work and
see the enjoyable part of it and at
the same time know they r the
making Of a good Wyoming camper
and a real Scout.
The Misses Leonta Bunten and
Gladys Tobias were camped close to
the boys camp and remained the
whole week enjoying the outing. For
four days beginning Sunday. the
Misses Regina and Faye Bunten,
Helen Craig and Renlia Hillman
were camped in the near vicinity Of
the boys camp.
Several private cars from Rawlins
went to the camp on Sunday and
brought the Scouts back to the city.
DR.. C. L.. Bunten who was the acting
Scout Master returned to Rawlins
late Monday night. A great deal OF
credit and appreciation is due DIR,
