POWELL MAN PLACED
In CHARGE HATCHERY

Adam Majors of Powell. business
man of the project town, has been
named by the new game warden
as superintendent of the Cody fish
hatchery and has had orders to as
sumo his new duties at once. Mr..
Majors has been manager of the
Wyoming hotel in Powell for the
Fast few years, and is one of the
prominent business men of hat sec
ton.
Inasmuch as the new appointee
has had no previous experience with
the propagation of fish, it is likely
that Ed. Goodrich. former superin-
tendent of the hatchery, will assist
him with the work until he becomes
familiar with his new duties. 1t
is unfortunate that the game depart
ment could not have placed an ex-
perienced nan at the local hatchery
at this time when the greatest pos
sible production is so vitality needed.
but Mr.. Majors is a man with abil-
ity and will no doubt take readily
to his new work. and will soon be
able to capably handle the job.

GAME COMMISSION
CLOSES COUNTY WATERS

o. F-fKoenig, president sof the
has received notice from A. A. San
ders, state game and fish commits
sioner, that the petition of the
club has been passed on %favorabiy
by the commission and hat the
streams designated in the petition
will be closed to fishing. The
streams closed are as follows: The
Shoshone river, from the Shoshone
dam to the foot of the Dam hill;
Paint creek from the Schultz ranch
to its source; Pat O'Hara creek
from the Two-Dot crossing to it's
source; all of Elk creek in Sunlight
basin; all of Rose creek, Rock creek
and Franks Fork, tributary to the
Greybull river; and all of May
creek, Dick creek, Aspen creek and
Deer creek, tributary to Wood river.
1t is very gratifying to the local
club to get such speedy action from
the new commission, and tends to
create the impression that the new
order of things will do much to
simplify the methods of game and
fish conservation. The streams which
have been closed are considered very
good rearing places for young trout.
and within a few years it is eX-
in these waters will do much to-
ward stocking the larger streams to
which they are tributary.

LOOMS HEARING POST
PONED FOR ONE WEEK
At Request of County Attorney
McElvain Governor Ross Sets
Date for April 9th

The hearing of w. H. Loomis,
Park county sheriff, which was to
have been held on Monday in Cody.
has been postponed and will be held
a week later, Monday, April eth,
at which time Governor Ross states
she will be here to conduct the case.
The postponement was granted at
the request of County Attorney Nc
Elvain, who stated to the Governor
that he wished to file an amended
complaint against the county sheriff,
and that a little additional time
would be required to get his case
in shape for hearing.
The new complaint has been
served on Loomis and is said to be
practically the same as the original
bill of complaint that was filed some
time ago. Some legal phrases were
changed from the original in the
amended complaint which has been
filed, and it is possible a few ad-
ditional witnesses will be called to
testify.
Much disappointment was man
ifest in Cody Monday by the wit
nesses who had bee called in from
outlying districts to attend the hear
ing Some of them had been forced
to leave their spring farm and ranch
work, and the extra trip to town
which will be necessitated by the
postponement of the hearing will
not be received with much enthus-
iasm. Coroner Tucker, whose duty
it has been to serve the subpoenas,
has been having difficulty in locat-
ing some of those who are expected
to be witnesses for the state, and
it is likely that when the hearing
is called many of the states wit
nesses will not be at the hearing.

chase supplies from the H. p, Ar
mold store. located across the river
and on the bluff to the last.
Charles DeMaris, in examining
some of the old records found at
the Springs. has come across the
old register which was used by Mr..
Edick at his lodging house and which
contains h names of many people
who were making history in this
section at hat time. Under the
date of 1896. which was three years
after Edick launched his eating
house. is found the names of such
notables as Col. w. F. Cody. Gov.
w. A. Richards, Gen. Nelson Miles.

company is the erecting of tent
house similar to those used in the
park, and these quarters will be

INDICATIONS OF OIL
GOOD ACROSS RIVER
NJ. Guiterman Addresses Cody Club
and Speaks Encouragingly of
Oil Prospects on Across
River Formation

M. Guiterman. who is at the head
of the Cody Oil & Gas company
which is operating on the structure
across the river, was a guest of the
Cody club on Monday and spoke
very encouragingly of prospects in
the field in which he is now drilling.
The Guiterman interests sunk a
well on their present location last
year. closing down in the fall when
weather conditions made drilling
difficult. At the present time they
have a strong showing of oil in the
hole. of very high quality, and Mr..
.Guiterman stated that he hoped to
be able to have even better news
to report soon.
Reports from the Mooney and
Washington well. which formerly
was the Observation-Disclosures
holdings, are to the effect that a
good showing of oil has been made
in the well which is being drilled
on their holdings. They state that
they have barely entered the oil
sands as yet and expect to strike a
real producer at a lower depth.
The Taylor Bros. rig is o in
place and operations will start soon.
They are drilling on the same oil
formation as the Guiterman and
Mooney and Washington interests,
and are hopeful hat their efforts
will secure for them a paying well
on these holdings.

ter of a cent compromise which was
made by Mr.. Beck will amount to

what extent the county commission
ers there have incriminated them
selves. The report of an auditor
who has just completed an audit

That the Yellowstone Park Camps
company is preparing for a greater
season that it has ever before en-
joyed in Yellowstone park is ev-
idenced by the fact that 100000

AND YELLOW
TRAIL MAN In CODY
Manager of n Is. & l.. Trail Pre-
diets Increased Volume of
Travel in 1925

H. l.. Kyes, of Huron. S. D., man.
ager of the Black and Yellow train,
advertised al the shortest route
from Chicago to Yellowstone Ma
tional park, spent several days in
Cody last week, making trips TO
some of the most scenic spots in
the Buffalo Bill country, and being
the principal speaker at the lunch
con of the Cody club Monday.
Mr.. Kyes has been with the Black
and Yellow Trail for the past two
years and has been the greatest
force in making this route one of
the principal feeders of tourists to
Yellowstone park. He is an inter
esting speaker, well posted regard
ing the highway work in which he
is engaged, and feels that he is
very conservative when he states
that the 1925 season will see a
much greater volume of travel over
this highway to natures wonderland
il Wyoming.
The B. &. l.. trail is a most di-
rect route to Wyoming and the
park. Starting at Chicago it goes
northward and crosses Wisconsin,
Minnesota and South Dakota to the
scenic Black Hills section where
thousands and thousands of vaca-
tionists from the middle west spend
their summers. Passing through the
Black Hills on some of the most
wonderful and scenic highway in
the middle west, the route leads
N through the eastern part of the
state to Gillette, on to Buffalo and
across the Big Horn mountains to
Worland and there connects with
the Park-to-Park highway to the
eastern entrance to the park. 1t
is declared to be several hundred
miles shorter than any other route
west from Chicago and with annual
improvement, is now one of the
most popular routes to Yellowstone.
Mr.. Kyes is interested in getting
all the publicity he can for this
route, and through his offices will
be distributed during the coming
season hundreds of thousands of
maps and literature depicting the
scenic attractions of this route to
the park.

At a special meeting of the town
council held on Thursday evening
bids were received for the furnish
ing of electric current to the town
OF Cody for the next twenty years,
and the Cody Development company,
an organization of Cody business
men, were awarded the contract,
inasmuch as its bid was the lowest
figure received, meeting the require
ments of the call made by the town.
Through an arrangement made, the
bid of the local organization was
taken over by Mr.. Beck, he agree
ing to furnish power at the same
rates, and under the same .condi-
tons offered by the successful bid
ders. By the new contract, Mr..
Beck will furnish current to the
town of Cody for a period of twenty
years, the price to be on a sliding
scale one-fourth cent higher than
that offered by the United States
Reclamation Service, which also sub
mitted a bid for the contract. Ow-
ing to the fact that the town coun-
Gil was calling for a bid for a per-
iod of twenty years. and the gov
eminent was unable to contract for
a period of that length, their bid
was rejected on these grounds.

CAMPFIRE GIRLS TO
SPONSOR FUND DRIVE
FOR CHILDREN HOME
Cody Organization will Make House
toulouse Canvass for Funds to
Help Wyoming's Needy
Children

In line with a campaign for funds
being made under the direction of
Mrs. L. c. Cox. field agent of the
Wyoming Children's Home Fund so
ciety, a house-to-house v will
be made in Cody Saturday by the
Olfagi Campfire girls to secure
Cody's quota for this worthy insti-
tuition. Miss Martha Nuckols, guar
dian of this organization of girls,
will have charge of the local work,
and is planning a vigorous cam
paign in Cody.
The Wyoming Children's Home is
an institution which is deserving OF
the support of everyone in the state.
The work which it is doing, in car
ing for orphans and other needy
children, is very c~ommendable, and
it is necessary each year that eff
forts of this kind be made to finance
the work Park county has here
tofore always come to the front
with it's full share of financial aid,
and it goes without saying that the
Saturday drive will be a successful
one.
The Wyoming home is more than
just merely an orphanage. It's
greatest endeavor is to find the
needy uncared for children of the
state and place them in desirable
homes wherever they can be found.
Although the institution. which is
located at Cheyenne, is not a large
one. the work which the society is
doing is of great worth and should
receive every consideration, and a
generous support when the Campfire
girls call on Saturday.
