Central Garage Opens
Branch Agency Powell

]. NJ. Schwoob, pioneer motor car
salesman of the Big Horn basin, the
man who shipped into Cody the first
car load of Dodge Brothers cars ever
sent west of the Mississippi river, has
invaded the Powell motor car field.
Mr.. Schwoob was in Powell from
his home in Cody Tuesday evening
arranging details for the establish
ment of a sub-station for his line
of Hudson-Essex and Overland-Wil-
lys Knight cars at the Loving garage,
where several cars will be kept for
show purposes, and Clarence Dustin,
formerly of Burlington, will be the
salesman on the ground.
Mr.. Schwoob represents the Cen
trail garage at Cody, of which his son,
Thornton Schwoob, is manager and
secretary and Henry Sayles of Nee
teetse is vice-president. This was for
merly the Thurston garage there, but
in taking it over the Schwoob-Sayles
interests have rechristened it the Cen
trail Garage & Filling Station, and
have supplanted the Ford agency with
the contract to handle in the Park
county territory the combined Hud-
son, Essex, Overland and WHY'S
Knight line of cars. They plan MAX
ing an energetic effort to sell these
cars in the Powell field, and this week
publish in the Powell Tribune their
announcement advertisement of what
they hope to accomplish.
Mr.. Schwoob is not new to the au-
tomobile line. He sold the first car
to Henry Edmonds on the Powell
flat when that was about the only car
for miles in every direction, and he
handled the Studebaker line when
those ears were first put out. Later
he became agent for the Dodge and
disposed of n good many Of those ears
in Park county.-Powell Tribune.

REPUBLICAN, STATE and
COUNTY CONVENTIONS

If there are any not in full sympathy
with the plan for a state convention
of political parties in Wyoming, a
reading of the call sent out by P. C.
Spencer, Republican state chairman,
should convince them that the aims of
the convention are very proper, and
that the same should apply to county
conventions to decide on county tick
cts.
The call makes it plain that both
the county and state conventions are
to be purely advisory, called to dis
cuss and decide important matters of
party policy and to recommend can
didates to the electorate if the ma
v%entions to decide. The county con-
ventions so decide. The coutny con-
vention will comprise only members
of the county central committee, reg
ularly elected in the various districts.
1t is stated that any recommends
ton by either convention will not be
binding upon aspirants for office, but
that any man or woman may become
a candidate at the primary election
regardless of the action of either
state or county convention. The last
paragraph of the call reads as fol-
lows: "Thus an individuals rights I'M
der the primary law are fully pre-
served and in no respect nullified or
evaded but bitter primary contests be-
tween members of the same political
organization will probably be avoided
A candidate showing sufficient
strength and securing the endorse
ment of the Casper conference will
be, and should be. relieved of a te-
dious, expensive and statewide cam
paign against a fellow Republican, to
be followed Immediately by another
more strenuous and intensive against
the nominee of the opposing party"
The Park county Republican on
v%ention will be held Tuesday, June

Great Buffalo Hunt to
Erase Last Wild Herd

What probably will be the largest
buffalo hunt since the days when Col
Bill Cody had the contract to furnish
meat for the Union Pacific construc-
ton camp during the building of the
road, is being organized by A. H.
Leonard CT Fort Pierre, S. d. 1t will
also, undoubtedly. be the last hunt of
its kind in history.
Many of the big game hunters of
the country have been invited to par
ticipate.
The doomed herd of the majestic
beasts that were so plentiful in the
central western plains during the
pioneer days, numbering upwards of
300 head, now roams Antelope Island
in Salt Lake.
The Buffalo were purchased some
months ago by Leonard, whose orig
inal plan was to ship the animals to
his ranch at Fort Pierre. However,
William Powell. a full blooded Sioux
Indian, long employed by Leonard,
has reported, after three months
study of the herd, that they are "too
wild to be caught and shipped"

CURE FOR DRUG
ADD|CTS IS
SEEN

Four hundred confirmed drug adj
diets in Washington, besides an un-
estimated number OF persons who
| occasionally dabble in drugs doses,
stand to profit from the discovery,
announced In New York, Of cure
for chronic addiction.
The cure, announced by DIR. Alex
ander Lambert, former president Of
the American Medical Association,
and DIR. Frederick Tilney, president
of the American Neurological As
sociaton, has created a sensation
among the 0rug-physcans Of Wash
ngton. The standing of the men
sponsoring the cure Is, unqucstioned
here, and this. It appeared from a
canvass today, has created the wild
est interest In their announcement.
Addfcts Run Wild
At the same time It was learned
that drug addicts in WASHINGTON
run wild, so to speak, until they
voluntarily submit to treatment or
are arrested for violation Of some
criminal statute. Even when they
voluntarily submit to treatment,
they seldom remain to take it.
Virtually all drug cases in the
Capital go to Ga11inger Hospital,
ny tALC A(A6ILISLs ACTO
are less than a hundred cases a year
there. DR.. Margaret r. Stewart, Of
Gallinger, stated today that the
hospital, like all others in Wash.
ington, is using the same old
cures
Old Cure Is Painful
These consist OF the Continuous
baths" or baths in warm water for
two or three hours, and strict ex-
clusion > of drugs. This treatment
is tremendously painful. AT times
it is necessary to administer drugs
In small doses to prevent nervous
breakdown.
DR.. Lawrence Kolb, Of the United
States Public Health Service, said,
however, that this treatment will
produce a cure ''in all cases where
there IL not a psychopathic involve
ment." In these cases, the inability
Of patients to face the realism Of
life drives them back to the solacs
of drugs, he said.
Two things have almost nullified
the treatment of drug addicts at
GaIlinger Hospital, DIR. Stewart said.
One is that the voluntary patients
almost invariably leave, as they
have right to do. when their regu.
lar drug diet Is taken from them.
