FOR STATE REPRESENTATIVES,

One of the most important acts within the gift of the voters
of any county is the selection of conservative business men to rep
resent them in the State Legislature, or law making body, and in
this respect Carbon county is particularly fortunate. The Repub-
lean Legislative candidates, who were chosen at the primary cleo
ton held on August 18th. are men of acknowledged business abil-
iy who will represent the county in the legislature with credit
to themselves as well as to their constituency.

George c. Austin, the Republican candidate for sheriff,
needs no introduction to most of the people of Carbon county as
he has been actively identified with the progress of this section of
Wyoming for several years past.
Mr.. Austin is a railroad teegrapher and for practically all
his life he has been identified with railroading. Several years ago
he came to Carbon county IS superintendent of the Saratoga G.
Encampnent railway. He was very successful in the operation
of this railroad.
A few years since Mr.. Austin purchased a ranch on Pass
Creek and at the present time is actively engaged in ranching
and stockraising.
Mr.. Austin is thoroughly acquainted with conditions in
Carbon county and is thoroughly qualified to fulfill the position of
county sheriff. He is a man of striking personality; is absolutely
fearless; is honest and is efficient.
1t would have been impossible to find a man Tor the posi-
ton Of sheriff in the entire county better qualified than Mr..
Austin.
The Republicans solicit the support of the voters in behalf
of Mr.. Austin at the election November Attn.

The carly concession OF Iowa to
President Coolidge bv- LaFollette
headquarters at Des Moines came as
a surprise TO many political observ-
ers who expected Iowa to be one Of
the states found in the LaFollette
column If the senator won the cleo.
toral votes of any states besides his
home state, Wisconsin, and possibly
Minnesota and North Dakota. The
returns from North Dakotal up to
midnight necessarily came from the
cities and towns and were only a
very small percentage of the voting
strength of the state. They gave
President Coolidge a big lead. If
they ran true to precedent. the presi-
dents lead would be reduced and
Senator LaFollette's vote would be
increase as the returns from the
country districts were tabulated.
