Emerson will file a petition of
candidacy in the primary election
which is to be held August 18th.
His endorsement by the state con-
ference does not affect the right
of n other Republican to file for
the g~overnorship in the primary
election.
The choice fastened upon Frank.
C. Emerson, for years state engineer
on the fifth ballot. Delegation after
delegation switched its vote when it
become apparent that the tide was
turning, and. before the count was
made the PA delegates were re-
corded unanimously for Emerson.
The swing began with the with
drawal of two other candidates and
was percipitated full force when Ma
trona county's AZ votes, which hith-
erto had been divided, were thrown
-solidly for the state engineer.
A demand for greater economy in
state, county and local government,
with the elimination of super
fluous Commissions and bureaus and
prompt action to wipe cut the state
deficit. was a salient feature of the
platform adopted by the convention.
The platform charged that the pres
-ent Democratic state government
had not only done nothing to de-
crease the deficit, now amounting
to more than a million dollars, but
had constantly increased" it.
The five candidates who contested
the early ballots We're James Ora
ham of Fremont county, nominated
by DR.. A. B. Tonkin of that delega-
ton; J.. c. Underwood, speaker of
the house. nominated by Senator
Stephen Sibley of Burns; j. NJ.
;Schwoob of Park county, nominated
by Grant Caldwell of Powell; Perry
w. Jenkins OF Sublette county, nom
mated by G.. B. Hockett of the Sub
lette delegation, and Mr.. Emerson,
who was proposed by George B.
Mcclellan of Worland.
The first roll call showed Graham
"a; Underwood Sc; Schwoob, 43;
Jenkins, A; Emerson, 81, with 10S
ballots necessary for choice
When the count was announced
Mr.. Schwoob arose to thank the
delegates who had supported him
and to withdraw his name.
The second ballot gave Graham,
AZ; Underwood 81; Jenkins, A;
Emerson. 81. The third showed
but little change-Graham. 37A;
Underwood, STA; jenkins, AM;
Emerson, TN.
Fifth Ballot Clinches Result
Mr.. Graham then arose and with
drew his name. After a brief re-
cess the fourth ballot showed I'm
derwood, S.; Jenkins, AS, and En-
erson, 1O3-just five short of ell
.ection.
SOn the fifth ballot, while both

apparent hal Emerson was leading,
and as soon as the fact was recog-
nized there was a rush to get into
the Emerson bandwagon. Counties

Earl Hayner is way-off California.
He is to be here with his ready
smile n funny stunts to keep the
judge and announcers in good
spirits during the long afternoon
shows. AL Curtis wants to bulldog
a steer in front of the grandstand
and ays he will enter in time for
the three-day event. Even Phil
Orr, who is under a Doctors care
at Billings wants to do his part,
and says he is spreading the gospel
of the Cody Stampede among his
Billings acquaintance. He hopes
to be mended sufficiently to get
the first of July.
DR.. R. c. Trueblood is looking
for a s~tenographer to handle the
heavy Stampede correspondence. He
took this job on with the idea that
he could handle the job along with
his professional work, but has
thrown his hands into the air, ask
busy man these days, trying boot
leg cases and what not, but he
says they can all wait if necessary,
that he will be here to assist Monte
Jones and Jake Schwoob as an
nouncers. The Judge is right in
his glory when he gets out in front
of the band stand astride a western
bronze, n he couldn't be kept
away from the Stampede with a
machine gun.
A meeting of the directors was
held last week with department
heads and the rules and regulations
complete. Bob Rumsey and Monte
Jones have been of much assistance
in drafting rules for the western
events. Andy Martin and Willard
Hogan will act as contest judges,
and are to be protected from the
Justice seeking contestants by
chief of the arena police, Henry
Sayles. These men know their
stuff and the boys are going to
have to ride 'em right if they carry
away any money.

be a sure thing celebration. so you'd
better taller up your boots, for they
are going to put 'er on wild down
that way each night.
Speaking of wild steers, those
Texas doggies which were unloaded
last week are the best ever, and
they're gettin' wilder every hour on
wild Wyoming grass. The cow
ponies are going to have to shy
right up to them If the ropers get
in on any money this year, and
the boy who trys to bull dog one
of them had better come from far
down in the panhandle.
John Fowler states the races this
year should be the snappiest in
many seasons. He is receiving in
quiries each day, and the program
is getting better and better every
day. Some of the best strings of
horses to make any of the vents
of this. kind will come to Cody this
year.

Frank c. Emerson, state engineer, was endorsed by the
Republicans in convention assembled on Saturday at Casper
and his name will be submitted by the party to the voters at

GRAIN MARKET.
(By Dispatch A. P. wire)

CHICAGO, Sept 1.-Wet weather
spelling the harvest in Canada had
much to do today with giving lift to
wheat values here. In addition, big de-
liveries of wheaton Chicago September
contracts 1,743,O00 bushels, appeared
to have gone into strong hands. Clos
ing quotations on wheat were firm, q
to Y cent net higher, corn unchanged
ITO n cent UP, oats at % %@h cents to
~ cent gain and provisions varying
from IL cents decline to rise of 5
cents.
The fact that Winnepeg wheat prices
were relatively ffrmer than the mar
ket in Chicago had a stimulating ef-
feet on buyers here, and tended to en-
phasize prevalent belief that the rains
in Canada were not only hindrance
to the spring crop movement, but were
also impairing the quality of the grain.
An unofficial estimate that the total
yield of wheat in the three Canadian
prairie provinces will be only 327 7,000,-
900 bushels this season was also bull
ish factor, the amount being less than
other recent private figures.
Estimates today of United States
1926 spring wheat production averaged
I215, ,OOO 900 bushels and all of domestic
wheat S38,OOO,0O0 bushels. These fig
ures were about as expected, but corn
and oats estimates were considered
bullish, the average for corn, 2,693,0OO,-
900 bushels, indicating less improve
ment in the corn crop progress during
August than was anticipated by. the
majority of traders. Export business
in North American wheat today ag-
gregated 100000 bushels. Deliveries of
wheat on September contracts here
were mostly taken by millers who in
tend to ship the wheat out of Chicago.
I Profit-taking sales in the corn mar
ket shaved off most of an early advance
in price Until the final hour corn
showed strong tone owing more Or
less to wet weather. Oats derived firm
ness from other grain.
Provisions were responsive to a
downturn in hog values.

BRINGING the soda fountain
ID home is brand new idea.
You don't have to carry home the
marble fountain with all its ac-
couterInents-only its fizzy secrets.
There is syphon bottle equipped
with carbon attachment that makes
wonderful soda water while you
wait. The bottle may be in the re-
frigerator, in constant readiness for
action. Other carbonated sparkling
waters and ginger ale, fruit sYrups.
and plain sweetening syrup, marsh
lnaIlow whip, preserved fruits, hon
ey, maple syrup, and nuts are easy
to keep on hand.
Now we are all set for the secret
of how to turn these things into
fountain speciaTties. Each recipe
will speak for itself. The big part
of the secret is out when we say

enough English walnuts to make a
generous half cupfll, set aside until
needed. Take. a. quart Of vanilla
ice cream and divide into i've sher-
bet glasses, sprinkle with nuts and
turn over the syrup in suitable
quantity for each glass. TO vary

The world production Of copper for
July totaled 12S,3O0 tosn as against
12s,10O tons during June. These two
months are the smallest months of
this year, in fact, the smallest world
production since February, 1925, and
lower than the 1925 average. The
lowering production combined with
the increasing consumption and in
creasing price should serve to bring
further price increases.
There was no change during July
in the relative position of the various
producing countries The United
States, Mexico. Chile Peru and Japan
producing little less than in June
and Canada, Europe and Belgian
Congo producing little bit more.
There has been no change Of suf-

There has been good European

new Association of Copper Exporters
starts doing business in October.
George A. Newett, director in
the New Cornelia and the Calumet
and Arizona Mining company, recent
ly stated regarding the copper sit
uation: SeM
With the demand for copper 80
heavy price advances are certain to
follow. No industry can get away
from the law of supply and demand,
and the copper companies themselves
have created a greater demand
through judicious Advertising. Copper
is being used today where other
metals formerly held the market,
and this advertising will be con-
tinued.
"One cent a pound increase in
price of copper means as much as
million dollars a year additional
to some of the larger producers, and
the stockholders will share in the
benefits.
1T looks as though copper has come
back, and the mining companies are
not likely to permit another surplus
to accumulate"
