All Honor to Service Men

All Honor to Service Men
1Last week appeared a picture of
Ernest J. Goppert in the Cody En-
terprise in full uniform of the
United States army, bearing a Mex
lean service bar, a uniform which
he was always proud to wear, ac-
companied by IN untrue and mis-
leading article concerning the use
of the picture in a former campaign
and regarding his record as . sol
der.
The Herald does not intend at
this time to argue upon the record
of any young man who did his best
to serve his country durin@ the
World war. If he did his best. he
did all hat any fair minded per-
son could ask of him, but We do
seriously object to the use of pic
lures of service men in political
campaigns and the r%idiculing of the
~earers of the uniform for political
purposes.
We have never yet let arguments
of this character enter into a cam
paign and we hope that We never
will. The service which these young
men gave to the country is a very
sacred thing, and to comment upon
it lightly, or disparagingly, fol 20
1itical purposes, is d~isgraceful.
&*s%
The opposition in politics would
charge the county attorney with
every hour of ZACH and every jury
man who was called to the county
seat to hear criminal and civil
leases. Does not the opposition
know hat more time was consumed
at the last term of court in hearing
civil cases before juries than in
criminal cases? Does not the OPP
position know that had there been
no criminal cases filed the Jury
would have been called Just the
same to hear the civil cases, and
the law provides than only a fee
of $12 can be legally charged a
plaintiff or defendant for the use
of a jury. 1t never was expected in
the good old United States, that
the courts of justice should be self
supporting, or that they should pay
a profit. Nevertheless the court
records will show, and affidavits
have been made by the clerk to
that effect, that the actual cost of
prosecutions of criminal cases have
contributed a sum of $~1,S69.11 to
the county treasury over and above
costs.

GENE SULLIVAN

Next week Wyoming is to elect a governor. There are two
candidates. One of these candidates is the sorrowing widow
of the late governor, a candidate who had the honor thrust
upon her, and who does not want the responsibilities of the
office. The other candidate, the nominee of the Republican
party, IS Eugene j. Sullivan, one time resident of the Cody
coantry and a successful business man of the state. The voters
of the state are going to have to decide whether they will elect
a Democratic woman to this office, to sit N a board which is
entirely made up of Republican members, O whether they will
choose a man, admitted as an efficient and thorough business
man.
An argument is used against Mr.. Sullivan that he is an
oil man. Admitted. He is an oil man, and as head of the E.
t. Williams company, the largest independent operator in the
state, knows the oil game from a to z Why should he be
ashamed to be known as an oil man? 1t is the biggest and
most important industry in Wyoming today. 1t pays the
greater portion of the states taxes. 1t is, and should always
be an honorable business and one that the governor of this
state should know something about.
Mr.. Sullivan has banking interests in the town of Basin,
and it was he who made it possible to re-fnance an institution
there when it was closed about a year ago. He not only paid
into the treasury of the defunct bank the amount of money he
was liable for, under his ownership of $4,000 worth of the
stock, but he paid in enough money that the bank could be re
opened without a single stakeholder losing one cent of money.
Mr.. Sullivan is also a farmer, he owns several thousand
acres of land on Liberty bench and has a full knowledge OF
the needs of the farmer today. He has sufferd financially with
ether land owners in his possessions and will be a great force
in the framing of laws which will assist them back to a more
prosperous era.
Gene Sullivan is a Big Horn Basin man. If elected he will
be the first governor Wyoming has ever had from the Big
can best look after your interests as governor of this great
commonwealth.

FIRST CLASS DRESSED
TURKEYS TO BRING 27o
Swift & Company Again Successful
Bidders for Product of Big Horn
Cooperative Association

Word has been received by Coun-
ty Agen R. J.. Allen and Earl E.
Newton of the Big Horn Cooperative
association, to the effect that Swift
& Company have again been the.
successful bidders for the 1924 tur-
key crop of Big Horn and Park
counties. The prices to be paid will
be 27c per pound for No. 1 turkeys,
dressed; zoe for No. IS, and 23c
for the old Toms. These prices are
very good and the turkey raisers
of the county stand to realize in
the neighborhood of $4,000 for
their years crop. if placed on the
market to the best advantage.
Mr.. Allen stated hat the associa-
ton would receive only dressed tur-
keys at the Cody station. In Pow
ell a dressing depot will be or
ganized and the turkeys will be
received there, zoe per pound, live
weight for No. Is, 12c for No. rs
and 15c for old toms. 1t has been
figured that it requires about &c
e pound to dress the fowls and
prepare them for shipment.
Mr.. Allen stated hat there would
probably be other buyers in for
turkeys during the season and those

and girls. What is his opponents
record to date? Let him tell you
what he is doing in his home town,
Cody, for the betterment OF The
boys and girls.
To improve the conditions which
McElvain admits exist over the
county, two things are needed. First
the county needs a sheriff who is
unafraid of public criticism, who
will enforce order at these enter
tainments or close them up. 1t
also needs a county attorney who is
fearless enough and one who if
elected will be free to administrate
his office along the proper lines.
A vote for Chas. A. Davis for
sheriff and Ernest ]. Goppert for
county attorney will remedy these
conditions cited by McElvain.

The Cody high school received
the drubbing of its life on the grid

lack team work and durability
Worland made 10 points in each
half.
A change has taken place in the
local football circle at Cody high and
all the old boys are back in the

sisted by Mr.. Grossman, who han

of intensive training, it is honrf
by Roberts and Grossman to nave

The Stock Oil Drilling corHpany
of Casper is to do the work under
contract and are not wasting any
time before cold weather sets in.
Much of the equipment was hrot
in from Montana, while plans are
under way for the building of q
115-foot derrick, which will be
larger than any in use in the state
at the present time. The Stocks
are real oil drillers and have the
distinction of bringing in the Salt
Creek field, the largest in Wyoming.
The location of the well which
has been drilled by' the Ohio for
the past year is to be the first
point of activity. The rotary will
be put to work on this well and
the gas, which was struck at 100
feet, cased off. The gas will thea
be used for fuel and a new well
will be started which it is hoped
will prove the oregon Basin field.
The huge rotary is capable of going
down three four, or even five
thousand feet if necessary, and will
drill a well asmost as fast as The
casing can be placed.

Protect the Riddles

In a campaign article appearing
in the Powell paper last week the
Democratic candidate for co%untyat-
Tsrney makes a plea for more pro-
lection for the young folks. Mr..
McElvain cites the fact that the
manner in which the dance halls
are being operated over the country
is deplorable. That the young folks
can buy booze easier than adults.
Naturally he blames this condition
all upon his opponent, Mr.. Goppert.
Now, Mr.. Voter, who is respons-
ible for the conduct of these dance
halls? The county attorney or the
sheriff of the county? Mr.. Noel
vain admits they are being operated
in a deplorable way. His running
mate, Sheriff Loomis, is the man
who is responsible for these condi-
tons and he knows it. 1t is he. and
not the court prosecutor who is
under oath to the state and county
to look after conditions such as
these. We admit they are bad. AID
init they are as deplorable as Mr..
McElvain says they are, but Goppert

IuC Po,OO W. IgCICIt
1.-THE Herald wonders if the voters
will swallow the Democratic circu-
lars story, hook, bait and all, re-
garding the $S.661.O2 which it is
claimed Goppert spent of the tax
payers money on criminal prosecu-
tons. We note that they studi-
ously neglected to tell of n of
the fines, bond forfeitures, and road
work received in lieu of fines, which
were received by the county to off
set the expense of criminal prosecu-
lions. 1t seems silly that they
would make a statement tina. the
money received into the school fund
does not go to the county, or at
least they refer that it does not re-
vert into channels where it does
any good, Any man, at all ac-
quainted with the workings of the
government, knows that any mon
eys received into school funds will
cut down his taxes exactly that
amount.

Price, the colored proprietor of q
much-discussed pool room in that
city, was fined $50. Hunter chased
the manager around with butcher

John Gitto, of Beverly was de-
clared not guilty on the charge of
passing two worthless checks. His
case was started before jury, but
the court took it and rendered de-
cision when it was shown that he
made good the amounts after the
presentation of the checks.
