A Lobby Without Shame

role of mendicant before the ways and means committee. AID.
pealing for a few hundred thousand dollars and yet a few hun.
dred thousand more to support that poverty-striken institution,
that now receives more government aid, oil royalty, and in
come and direct state tax money than any other educational
institution OF its class and kind in the United States.
What it does with the money it receives has always been
a mystery. The cost per capita on its output is said to be from
$500 to $4,000. And those interested in education III Wyo
ming have advised that the board of trustees send the entire
ENROLMENT to the highest grade colleges in the country and
save enought to start the graduates in business when they re-
turn. Every conceivable means is being used by the university
lobby TO secure an increased appropriation. Wherever a friend
of the university may be found, he is at once set after n member
of the legislature. And wherever a person of influence is
found, who may be willing to be used, he is at once employed
to dam the flood of criticism of the university and the methods
used, the damnable waste of public money and the contempt,
ible peanut politics constantly played by all concerned in uni
versity matters. 9,
1t is to be hoped that the legislature may stand firm and
at the same time be just in making university appropriations.
There is need for a spanking and a good sound one at that.
The university authorities have been foolish and wasteful in
expenditures, and it is high time they were put in their proper
place. The legislature should be the judge of funds awarded.
and not the professors who have shown repeatedly their ire.

1t is high time somebody had regard for the taxpayer
Let us make the legislators that somebody. And let us send the
professors back to their jobs, while the legislators are looking
after e~verybodys interest, including the university's.

Broke Quarantine

me senate went to bat this afternoon on the banking code
Dill. Both parties had caucused the night before and since the
Democrats had refused to yield a single point at controversy
IN committee or anywhere else, the bill was jammed into pol
tics. The main point at issue was whether the bank commits
sion WHICH the act sets up was to make selection of the super.
visor and keep that office entirely out of politics, or whether
the governor should make the appointment and that officer
be responsible to the governor which would keep him knee
deep in politics.
The issue came on an amendment offered by Senator Hun
ter, Democrat, of Laramie county, seeking to change the exist.
ing bill and placing the appointing power with the governor!
The question came upon the adoption or rejection of the amend
ment- The vote resulted: Mercer, Daley, Cameron, Lee, Horton,
Sibley, Gardner, Free, Froyd, Hartwell, Burton, Spear, Jen.
kins, Brown, Park, fifteen, all Republicans, against the amend.
ment. For the amendment, Anderson, Wanerus, Fowler, John.
son, Merchant, Hunter, Cook, Pearson, Lundy, Myers, Jones,
eleven, Democrats and Meek Republican.
The amendment was lost by a strict party vote, save Meek.
he broke quarantine and demonstrated his meekness asa reg.
ular. Meek delayed the proceedings for fully half an hour. He
was not in his seat after the noon recess, and when the call of
the house came at BIS he was still absent. The sergeant at
arms was dispatched to bring the missing senator into the
session. He was found at the hotel room and escorted to the
senate chamber. He had tried to evade going against the
blaze, and when he did he showed anything but sportsmanship.
Wyoming Republicanism is cursed by entirely too much of
the Meek spirit. If men elected by Republican constituents,
cannot stand straight on political matters, they should be read
from the party. Any person can have respect for a partisan,
be he Republican or Democrat but nobody has respect for a
party traitor under any circumstance.

Senate 81 was a special order Of
business for the senate at 3 o'clock
but the clock registered 4 O'Clock
before consideration OF 1t on second
reading vas begun. The delay re-
suited from a call OF the senate and
the inability of the sergeant at arms
TO find Senator Meek. Senator Pear
son, floor leader of the Democratic
| minority, insisted that the call of the
senate should not be raised until
after Senator Meek had been found
and was In his seat. The absent sena,
tor eventually was located and con.
sideration of the bill Yas taken up.
Prior TO the division on the Hunter
amendment there was a division on
an amendment increasing the salary
Of the supervisor Of banks from
| $4,000 a year to $4,000. Thirteen
votes were cast for the amendment
and thirteen against the amendment.

by voting for the amendment and

Time For Judgment

The highway crowd, backing the three cent gasoline tax,
is sitting upon thorns these days, since the county demands
have been rolling in for a share or all of the tax for local. road
purposes, in case a tax law is passed. The argument used is
quite effective, which is that local taxpayers object to a gaso-
line tax where the proceeds are to be used for highways in
some distant part of the state. The claim is a good one and
the highway people have no answer to it.
What ought to be done in the highway situation is growing
palmer every day. Construction ought to be suspended for the
time being until the people have been told and shown just how
much more money the building program is to cost. The gaso-
line tax bill ought to be defeated, and a sufficient appropria-
ton granted to maintain and protect the work already built.
Good sense suggests that no more money be poured into
at rat hole without discovering whether the rat hole has a
bottom. Take stock of the highways and learn whether or not
we are proceeding too rapidly or whether we are going up
against a game that will wreck us directly, when oil royal
ties are reduced and taxes will have, to be substituted in
their stead.
If ever there appeared to be a time for the exercise of good
Judgment, it seems to be at hand.

GREAT CIRCUS
IN BISMARCK
FOR 2 SHOWS
Robbins Brothers to Give
Performances This After
noon and Tonight

Bismarck knows no other day just
like circus day. The thousands OF
happy, singing, chattering kiddies
on the streets this morning, with
daddies, mothers. and grandmothers
and grandpops attested the fact that
it is a day of days. The Robbins
Brothers circus owned by Col. Fred
Buchanan. is here and all the hill
side is let loose their folks to be
alongs ide the big parade, and in the
tents reared at the Ball park at an
early hour.
The big special trains moved in
over the Northern Pacific at four
a. M, coming from Linton. Crowds
of enthusiastic men, boys and glrls
were at the depot as soon AS day
light came to give it greeting. AS
the superintendent of operation be
gan to mobilize the great gangs OF
canvass men, etc, the boys crowded
and TANNED. 1t was difficult to hold
them in restraint when the elephant
cars built especially strong to hold
the big brutes, began to disgorge
their load. Then came the camels,
zebras and cages Of wild animals.
Oh! What a day for the boys, as we'll

had seen scores of circuses come

occurrence of the event. circus
gets one as nothing else does. A
tainted city was completed shortly
before noon. Just glimpse OF 1t
gave an idea of the tremendous SIZE
Of the circus. The main tent holds
about 10000 people. The advance
sale indicates this afternoons per-
JA OF
audience.
Menagerie a Big One
The menagerie is one of the big
gest Bismarck has seen in years.
There was every animal known to
circus life and many Of them in
numbers. OF course the elephants
got the small boys attention as the
wise looking camels looked on as if
to indicate they were bored by the
excitement to which they are daily
accustomed.
The show is complete. There is an
engaging side show of attractions
that are different. Several bands
keep the atmosphere of the grounds
ringing with martial music. A big
free show is offered every few
moments to the thousands.
The afternoon doors opened at two
O'Clock. At one there was such a
big crowd in line that the big
courteous ticket men opened bit
early that the people might not have
to tire themselves waiting.
The evening performance will be-
gin at eight o'clock, but the doors
will be opened at seven. To the
veterans of the circus game, one
notes many changes in the conduct
and management of the Robbins
Brothers Show.
Every arrangement is made tc

HARD TIMES
STRIP FAMOUS
SCOT CASTLES

Aberdeen, Scotland, June l0-Many
Of the picturesque castles Of Scot
land are gradually disappearing, or
at least being stripped Of their arti-
cles Of historic interest, despite eff
forts on behalf of various individu-
ais and organizations to preserve
them for future generations. The
most recent to be invaded by the auc-
tioneer is Slams Castle, on the Aber-
deenshire coast, where the Earls of
Enroll, heritable high constables of
Scotland held their state. Most Of
the castle owners aver they have
been forced to sell the ancient dwell
ings because of high taxes and the
cost of upkeep.
Before the war Slams Castle count
ed among its visitors the Earl of Ok
ford and his family, who spent a
summer there. In 1914 Dame Clara
Butt and her husband made stay
OF several months. Recently, how
ever, the castle has been uninhabited,
and now the last of its furnishings
have been sold under the auctioneer's
hammer. At one time the art treas
ures Of the castles were worth thou
sands Of pounds and it's library con
sisted Of more than 5000 volumes.
Among us manuscripts were tne
charters of Bruce and the paintings
included works by Vandyke, Rey-
nolds, Gainsborough and others.

painted by the Chicago Art studios.
This new production is from the pen
of Equestrian Director Bert Hickman
and 1T is considered by critics to be
the best of its line ever offered to
the public under a big top.
The management has cOTralled
some world renowned acts for the
Robbins Brothers circus. For in
stance there are the Matsumodo
troupe of eight Japanese who make
their first appearance in this coun-
try in balancing, juggling and
aerial act which is a real thriller.
Then there are the five riding Daven-
ports, Americas greatest barebacked
somersault riders. These premier
riders, for two years bewildered the
audiences of the New York Hippo
dr0me.
How did you get them?" a news
paper man asked one Of the execu-
tive officers this morning.

clown member of the family is Fred
