$4,000 in Fines for
Breaking Game Laws

Deputy State Game and Fish Com
missioner R. B. Mccullough and For
est Ranger Ernest j. Bordahl appre-
hended Messrs. William Benton of
Albany, Wyoming, NJ. B. Hicks, who
Is alleged to be an employee of Will
liam Benton's and j. NJ. Snyder, in
violations of the State game and
fish laws Sunday. Hicks pleaded
guilty before Judge Hunt at Laramie,
Wyoming, and was fined a total of
$4,000, two hundred dollars of
which was for killing a deer cut of
season, 100000 for killing a doe, and
$4,000 for having in his possession
over the legal limit of fish. Benton
pleaded guilty to having over the
limit of fish in his possession and
was fined $4,000. Smyser was fined
$500 for having over the limit OF
hsh and Ed. Newcomb of Albany,
Wyoming was fined $40 for having
deer meat in his possession, the total
fines being $4,000.
The deer was killed in the vicinity
OF Moore's Gulch, where several of
the defendants were conducting pla-
Ger mining operations within the
Medicine Bow National Forest.
Several years ago Benton was fined
for an infraction of the State fire
laws.
1t was pointed out by a member
of the Albany County Sportsmen's
Association today that the doe may
have been killed on National Forest
land, and, if such proves to be the
case, it constitutes the breaking of a

ROCK WYOMING'S
A

The following articles which APP
peared in The Inland Oil Index
recently, written by G. j.. Hares,
Geologist for the Ohio Oil Company,
is one of the most interesting articles
that has been written on or about
Wyoming's Great Landmark on as it
is some times called. 1.-The Register
of the Desert" The description by the
author is altogether different from
anything that has been written about
the rock before. The article which
follows, therefore, is not only in
teresting but it is a distinct contri-
button to the science and history of
the annals of Wyoming.
Independence Rock has a history
more interesting than any spot in
Wyoming. Historians have given it
a prominent place in the history of
the state, as it duly merits. 1t has
been written about in the Virginian
and the Covered Wagon, which has
been filmed so widely, but it's geo
logical Interpretation has been sadly
overlooked. Never before has any
one described the unique niche it
occupies in the mid-Tertiary glacia-
ton of the Rockies. 1t is a red let
ter page in the historical geology of
North America. Beautiful glacial
situations on its surface are minute
details which reveal events of ages
ago, when a great glacier moved from
the high Wind River mountains
eastward as far as the vicinity of
Alcova.
Many noted persons have tarried
at this landmark on the bank of the
Sweetwater river. The North Platte
and Sweetwater rivers were the ma
tural route of travel westward from
Omaha and the east. Up this water
way moved the Astorians and others
who blazed the Oregon trail in the
early part of the 18th century. One
of Astor's parties returned in Octo-
Der 1912 by the Sweetwater.
Capt. Benz. l.. E. Bonneville, in
May 1892, was at the junction of
the Laramie and North Platte rivers
and then moved past Independence
Rock. On July goth he got his
first view of the snow capped Wind
River mountains from the Sweetwater
valley.
John c. Fremont, a noted explorer
in his writings recounts events that
happened on the Fourth of July 1912
at this old rock while he was ex-
4 Wv WISE - hhuiiN Sa'hSu
what he supposed was the summit
of the Wind River Range, now called
Fremont Peak in his honor. He and
his party celebrated the anniversary
OF the independence of the United
States at this natural landmark and,
according to him, it was christened
with a cross at its top and named
Independence Rock.
In 1S47 many Mormons passed by
the rock on their way to Zion, A
year later Marshall discovered gold
in California, which started the rush
of 40. 1t is written that in their mad
rush across the prairies. up the riv-

and every crime, Of his time.
He was a loving husband, a sterling
friend, and a faithful servant. He was
a direct man He spoke simply, and
truthfully and honestly and sincerely
and that made him one of the great
orators of his day.
He was a poor politician, because
he refused to compromise with the
right as he saw the light. but he was
a great seeing, saga
cious, constructive, and liberal
minded
He was abused and misjudged; Will
fed and misrepresented; especially by
the enemies Of the plain people, and
the advocates Of private monopoly.
Governor Altgeld will live! AS the
years come and go his heroic figure as
jurist, an orator, Statesman, and
ali humanitarian, will loom larger and
larger on the horizon Of man, and the
time is coming when he will stand
out in American history-Lincoln-ik
-as one Of the great men Of his time
and generation.
His maligners and detractors are
dead and forgotten; but Altgeld lives
in the hearts Of those who knew him
and Of those who loved him, and ir
the decades to come countless thou
sands. who never knew him, but who
will read about him, will bless his
memory. because his life was a bene-

Ii is a real pleasure for me to com
ply with the request Of the veteran
and distinguished Editor of The
Broad Ax-the Hon. Julius F. Tay-
lor-for a tribute to the memory Of
John P, Altgeld.
Suffice it to say I knew him we'll
for many years. We were personal
and political friends, and in several
important campaigns closely as
sociated in the political affairs Of the
United States.
Governor Altge1d was a true man; a
great man; a great leader; versatile
and original; and in his tragic and
tempestuous life he played all impor-
tant part in the politics Of his city
his State, and his Country.
He was a man Of the plain people
and championed the cause Of the op-
pressed. He loved Truth, and Jus
tice, and Liberty. He stood for
Freedom for all He believed in his
fellowman He could not tolerate
class, or caste, or special privilege.
He had no bigotry, and no prejudice,
except deep-seated prejudice against
the wrongs and the injustices OF his
time.
He was a myriad minded man. He
was honest in all things. He had no
fear. He had the rectitude of the
rocks. He saw the right. He
searched for the truth, and when he
found the truth he was brave enough
to proclaim it regardless of personal
consequences.
He served his City, and bis State
and his Country we'll. His sterling
manhood recognized his duty, and he
grasped the opportunity to render
great public service for every cause
that lacked assistance. He was a stu
dent of public affairs, a tireless

of Negro STAKEHOLDER, moreover, some
times feeling the sting Of conscience,
liberated his slaves. Thus did Samuel
Gibson, a Negro OF Mississippi, in
1914, when he brought his six slaves
to Cincinnati, Ohio, and settled them
on free territory.
Having economic interests in COM
mon with the white shareholders, the
Negro owners Of slaves often enjoyed
the same social standing. 1t was not
exceptional for them to attend the
same church to educate their children
in the same private school, and to fire.
quent the same places Of amusement
Under such circumstances miscogena-
ton easily followed. While those
taking the census Of 1880 did not gen
orally record such facts, the few who
did. as in the case Of Nasemond
County, Virginia, reported a situation
which today would be considered
alarming In this particular county
there appeared among the shareholders
free Negroes designated as Jacob Of
Read and white wife and Syphe of
Matthews and white wife. Others re-
ported with white wives were not
shareholders.
