Says He Is Not Guilty;
Needs No Attorney

A swarthy faced Mexican named
Santolla was arraigned before Judge
Metz this morning on a bootlegging
charge and, through an interpreter,
which he apparently did not need
very badly, he entered a plea of not
guilty. Prosecuting Attorney Nc
Elvain stated that the bond offered
for him by one of his countrymen
was insufficient land he was remand
ed to Jail to await the presentation
of the proper bond. Santolla inform
ed the judge that he did not need
either an attorney or a bondsman be-
cause he was not guilty, and demand
ed that his accusers be summarily
produced in court. The judge opined
that both were necessary, and San
tolla was led protesting to Jail,

MRS. De MARIS MAKES
PLANS TO Increase
HOUSING CAPACITY
Returns from Europe Thoroughly
Convinced that There is No
Place Like Home-WiI Open
Season Early this Year.

Following her return from abroad,
Mrs. Nellie DeMaris. of the DeMaris
Springs Company, has turned her at
tention to making plans for the ever
increasing number of visitors who
journey to the baths at the springs
every year, and just at the present
time the only solution to the over
flow problem is the utilization of a
large number of lighthouses.
Mrs. DeMaris aver that her trip
to Ireland and France, particularly
the latter country, has convinced her
that in the DeMaris Springs she has
an asset that would be priced and
p~rofitably capitalized by Europeans,
and she returns more than ever sat
isfied with the fate that cast her lot
in the good old U. S. A. 1t is a
pleasure to visit abroad. she says,
but declares with emphasis that the
biggest pleasure is in returning to the
United States. Charles DeMaris. her
son, will remain in France for a short
time, and will probably visit in Rome
and other italian cities before he re-
turns. He is quartered at the home
Of Joseph Ganguet, and this honey
arrangement helps him to forget, tenn
porarily, the many good things he
left behind when he took passage for
Europe.
This year, the springs will be op-
ened to the public earlier than usual,

cific railroad companies have already
taken up the matter of advertising

KLAN RESOLUTION Is
LAID ON the TABLE
BY The CODY CLUB
Effort to Have School Board Put
Bible in Schools Strikes Snag-
Moved by Goppert, Seconded
by Upton.

The initial attempt of the Ku Klux
klan of Cody to undermine the Con-
%stitution of the United States through
the adoption of a resolution bv the
school board to make the reading of
the Bible in the schools of this city
compulsory, was temporarily side
tracked by the Cody Club at its noon
day meeting on Monday, when a res
olution to that affect, sent to the
club through the mail, with no re-
spOnsible signature, was tabled until
it shall be disposed of by the board
OF directors. Apparently the board of
directors considered the contemplate
ed purchase of an auto camp ground
to contain more constitutional merit
for discussion, and camp sites, and
the methods to be pursued in buying
one, occupied the attention of the
club during the remainder of the ses-
sion, while the proponents of the BIZ
BILE reading resolution were compelled
thru this exercise of common sense
to remain obscured and act as if they
liked it.
This asinine attempt to link the
church and state. in violation of the
Constitution, was introduced by Sec
rotary Chamberlain, who read the re-
solution, and then plainly stated that
as it came to her through the mail.
with no responsible signature, and
with nothing more than three ks to
establish its origin, she did not think
it was worthy of the clubs consider
alton. d,
Former Prosecuting Attorney Ern-
est Goppert was on the alert, and i'm
mediately moved that the resolution
be approved by the club. The Rever-
end Gabriel Upton, pastor of the To-
cal Methodist church. offered a feeble
second to Mr.. Goppert's feeble mo-
ton, and brief discussion followed.
DR.. r. C. Trueblood stated in decis-
i've terms that he did not think the
resolution was appropriate for con-
~sideration, Or words to hat effect.
Mike Clark and others echoed DR..
Trueblood's views in words that were
clearly understood, and finally the
former prosecuting attorney, with the
consent of his second. the Reverend
Mr.. Upton, withdrew his motion. In
defense, Mr.. Goppert stated that he
had made the motion in order to
bring the matter to a discussion, but
he failed to state whether there were
any other insidious influences which
prompted his mental flight.
The matter is now lying dormant
before the board of directors. and
its resuscitation is a matter of
speculation among the broadminded
people of the community, with the
betting odds favoring the painless X
ecution of the resolution, a speedy in
terment, and no resurrection.

plead guilty to a charge of manufac-
turing liquor last summer, was re-
leased yesterday. Milliken was ar

board out his fine. On December 26
the fine was reduced to 5000, and up
on its payment, with the time taken
out for the time he had served. he was

KTIC ~ ~ 0IIN.

Taxpayers read with interest a recent dispatch from Washington to the
Casper Tribune which states that the prohibition officials are to ask an
other big boost in the appropriations for enforcing the prohibiory law,
declaring that they have neither men nor money enough to cope with the
situation.
In 1920 the prohibition unit received an appropriation from congress
of s315OOOO; S61OOOOO in 1921; $7,5OOOOO in 1922; S9,25OOOO in 1928;
S25yOOOOOO was asked in 1924.
While the taxpayers are crying for a reduction in taxes these profes-
ional reformers are asking for appropriations which it is estimated at the
present ratio of increase will reach S4OOOOOOOO by 1880.
The Washington correspondent for the Casper Tribune makes the
further statement that while the prohibition agencies in their annual reports
paint glowing pictures of the Roadway they are making, when the time
comes to ask congress for more money the prohibition heads are obliged to
tell the truth and admit that with all the men and millions at their dispos
al they re unable to stop the flood of liquor which pours into the United
States along the Atlantic and Pacific coasts and over the Canadian border
and have made little progress in enforcing the prohbtory law.
-WW-
The reformers told US that in five years prohibition would be al ac-
compished fact. Those accustomed to the use of liquor would be weaned
away from it; the younger generation would never know the taste of it; in
1925 the millennium. Reminding them of these promises we ask how they
explain the following official figures taken from the annual reports of the
Commissioner of Internal Revenue of the United States.

MRS. WHITNEY WOULD
FAVOR WEST END SITE
SECRETARY Believes
Scupturess Desired Monument to
be Placed Where the Greatest
Number Can See 1t, Assertion.

H. w. Thurston, secretary of the
Buffalo Bill Memorial Association, in
asking the town council to approve
the conversion of the 50 acres upon
which the Buffalo Bill monument now
stands into an auto camp in con-
junction with the use of the west end
of the town park, stated that the es-
tablishment of the tourist camp at
that site would carry out the wishes
of Mrs. Harry Payne Whitney, sculp-
turess of the monument. who desired
that the monument should be placed
where it would typify the great out
of-doors which Buffalo Bill loved.
Moreover, said Mr.. Thurston, title to
the 80 acres has been vested in the
Memorial Association, and that at a
meeting to be held tonight the
matter of converting the acreage into
a camp site would be thoroughly dis
cussed.
Commenting further upon the pro-
posal yesterday morning, Mr.. Thurs
ton said that successful efforts were
now being made to acquire additional
acreage adjoining the 81 acres, and
that from the viewpoint of water sup
ply and drainage, the land was all that
can be desired for such purpose.
1t would be expensive, he said, to
move the buildings now standing on
the west end of the town park, and
for that reason. and for the addition
al reason that a growth of young
trees would, in n few years, provide
needed shade and attractiveness, he
and others firmly supported the pro-
posal to continue to use that end of
the park as a comp site.
The state, said Mr.. Thurston, had
appropriated five thousand dollars to
perpetuate the memory of Buffalo
Bill. This money had been turned
over to Mrs. Whitney. who caused
the purchase of the 50 acres, shout
dered the expense of placing the mon
ument almost alone, and desired that
1t should be placed where as many
tourists as possible could view it. The
tourists coming from and going to
the Yellowstone Park must necessar-
lily pass the monument, and the spirit
of the west, typified by the monument
of the famed Buffalo Bill, could not
be better upheld for the edification of
tourists than by establishing an auto
camp on that site.
People favoring the purchase of 40
acres in the east end of town. and
who were interviewed by the Enter
prise, adhere to the opinion that the
east end site is desirable from several
viewpoints, but they state that they
will be good sports" and will not
fight the selection Of the west end
site IL the majority Of the people and
local organizations demand it.
The Cody club has the matter IN
der consideration, and it Is believed
that the cost of buying n site will be
prohibitive ut the present time, and
that the economy Of using the monu-
ment acreage for an auto camp will
appeal so strongly TO the club that il
will favor its acquisition for that pur-
pose.

Himself to Do Work and Younger
One to Bear Children.

New YOrk.-Alaska Indians in some
Instances still have two wives, an elder
one to do the work and a younger one
to bear the children, according to Miss
Marie E. Faldine of Juneau, who Is in
New York attending a child welfare
conference. She is a Red Cross pub
lie health nurse, and has organized
public health work in southeastern
Alaska.
'The practice of having two wives Is
no longer common" said Miss FaIdine,
'but it Is an old-estahlished custom and
is done under cover. The residual ef-
fects are seen in the fact that the
Alaskan native generally marries a
woman older than himself.

When Your Headphones
Should Have Attention

Headphones that have been in serv-
ice for year or more should be in
spected by removing the cap and
diaphragm. The mounting screws hold
ing the horseshoe magnet in place
should be tightened. Remove any dirt
or particles of steel that may be col
lecting on pole pieces. The diaphragm
should be inspected to ascertain if it
has become bent and if so, it should
be replaced with new one. The
screws holding the telephone cord tips
should be tightened, but not removed,
and reversed, as this will disturb the
polarity of the unit, affecting signals.
If the diaphragm has become weak
ened and touches the pole pieces it
should be turned over on its reverse
side, which will correct the trouble.
