nance, succeeded in having most of
his loss returned to him.
Then he, as director, decided that
no one else should be taken in as he
had been, and so, with the other di
rectors, voted to close up the affairs
of the company.
Charlie came home with approxi
mately $16,000 in cash and securities,
that belonged to the stockholders, and
deposited same in the First National
Bank of Cody. Meanwhile, Friend |
Banker had been appointed manager
of the Loan company.
The next time Charlie came out of
his trance, the entire account of the
Wyoming Cattle and Loan Co. had
been transferred by Friend Banker to
his bank, the account of the Wyoming!
Cattle and Loan Co. hnd lost its iden
tity and become a part of the First
National of Cody with a charge of
$2,000 for doing the job!
What about placing SBOO,OOO in the
hands of a man who would permit
such a thing as this to happen?
So here we have the three commis
sioners appointed by the Court and
who have already been given $28,000
to invest for the people. The money]
is now gone and what have they to
show for it? Nothing. If all the as
sets of the Wyoming Development Co.
were put together there would not be
enough to trade for a gallon of mono- I
shine. In other words, more than one
thirtieth of the SBOO,OOO has already
been spent uselessly.
If the $28,000 had been properly
used in improving irrigation, in en
larging ditches and similar work
which would have been of real value,
the people of this valley would have
: received this year a benefit of at least
$50,000 in increased production.
Every rancher and stockman’s mo
ney in this district is worth 10 per
cent. Take SBOO,OOO at 10 per cent
compound interest and at the end of
0 years you have the tidy sum of
$5,382,000 —almost enough to buy ev
ery acre of land in the district at S6O
oer acre.
ne commisloners say, “You don’t
ave to pay all at once. This will be
only a little at a time and you will
not notice it’’
Nearly everybody in this district
knows-my ranch above Meeteetse, a
ranch which I have formed for more
than 20 years 'without once feeling
the need of this proposed reservoir.
n6w this body of commissioners go'
before the Court and assess me $llOO.
which they claim is the amount of
benefit I shall receive.
This year they say I am to be taxed
s9l. 35 as my share for their blunders.
At the rate I am taxed, my first pay
ment would be something like $690.26
with 14 more such payments to follow.
This $690.26 at 10 per cent com
pound Interest would amount to
$2883.35, so it would be just about an
even break if I should walk out and
give them the ranch.
If I should stay and work, and live]

A message for wives
whose husbands remain young
Has it ever occurred to you that your hus
band looks younger than you because he
takes things easier ?
Like as not he does very little that he can
hire done—he doesn’t scrub his own office,
or sweep, or scour, or wash.
/These are aging tasks which cause so
many women to grow old before their hus
bands do, and the most aging of all is the
family washing.
Let us relieve you of this burden. Send
us your washing this week and see how
much younger you feel when Monday night
comes. Just phone, and our representative
will call.

to pay the taxes assessed, the money' I
! I would pay out in 20 years would
amount to close to 140,000.
Remember what caused the little
brush between the United States and
England or better known as the Revo
lution? Taxation without representa-i
tion_ Here we have taxation without'
either benefit or representation. I
One would think the law was taken
from the feudal system which sprang
up after the fall of the Roman Empire
when the land was all controlled by
; lords or knights who set the tax levy,
to be paid in money or homage.
| We, however, are not given the
privilege o£ settling our taxes by hom- •
age.
I We pay the homage but it hasn’t a'
cash equivalent. Here we are 3,000
years later with a law which gives a
court the right to send commissioners
out to levy and collect taxes for some-,
thing we do not want and whirh the;
court will not guarantee.
I We have no assurance that the
$300,000 will not be fooled away; we
have no assurance that this proposed
earth dam will not wash out and de
stroy our lives and property. The
only guarantee we have is that we
can pay our taxes or give up the
j homes we have given the best years
of our lives to build.
