of the people. Pack at home the
folks wonder at the power of the
members of this character and
the newspapers write long artic
les to prove that the men who
have such an abundance of tins
influence with the powers that
be nhouid be rewnroed by more
lonj; terms for hucIi powerful
champions, ignorant that the re
al welfare o! the people has been
betrayed. Collier's Weekly recent
ly gave an example of this bri
bery of Statta. It said:
"Of all the States west of the
Mississippi, the two which have
been least touched by the Insur
gent spirit are Utah and Wyo
ming. 'For the former there is a
epecial reaaon; for Wyoming the
explanation is contained in a
brief compilation ent to us by a
citizen of that Stab):
The town of Lauder, with a
population of 1,812, has a Fed
eral building that cot 175,000.
The town of Casper with a pop
ulation of 2,039, has a Federal
building Unit cost, 6T.000
The town of Donniatt, wifh a
oopulatioi) of 2.2-tC, has a Fed
eral building that cost oo.O'JO.
Try to imagine a town of lea a
than two thou.-a.ud people with a
$175,000 Fedetal building. But
in addition to the.M!, several vet
smaller towns ore yet inline: Pa
tau has a population of (jbd, and
i(,000 has been appropriated as
a start to buy the Kite for a red
eral building. Cody has a popu
lation of 1,332 people and Green
Iliver 1,313; $G.0)0 of Uncle
Sam's money has been appropri
ated for a site for a Federal buil
ding in each. There uni few case
of political degredation more
sordid than this. Do the people
of Wyoming fatuously think that
they get these public build
ings without paying for them?
If they want to knov just what
coiu'eoin they give let then-examine
the voles of their one con
gressmen and two senators on
any vital matter, the direct elec
tio"u of senatorsfor example, or
the retention o Loriinur."

These are calm, logical and con

son hud a larue and true appre-
cation of the worth of tho Bible
