Britt, who is tho Yellowstone Park superin tendent and the colonel commanding the troop 3 in the park, that he has reached the conclusion that an auto road is almost an imperative thing and only a question of a short time j when it will bo built. There are so many persons owning , machines, who come from a long dis tance and under considerable expon that an auto road would seem to b": the orly thing to enable this clas3 to J continue through the great panoramic[ scenery that nature has so wonder- j fully and generously provided. The demand for an auto road seem*-1 to have more supporters than at any j previous time. Details are lacking at this line or to its route that *i I would be constructed over. ♦ TO BE PHELPS GUESTS.

THE HERALD, CODY, WYOMING, JULY 28, 1911 SLEEPER AT WASHINGTON TALKS ENTERTAINYLY OF INSURGENTS DOWNFALL During a recent visit to Washington, Hon. W. B. Sleeper, who has been closely lndentified with Wyoming his tory for many years and is regarded as one of the most observing Wyo* mingites, said to a Cheyenne Tribune representative: “So-called republican ‘lnsurgency’ that resulted in the election of Judge Carey In Wyoming last November, will have no place in the next national election. Wyoming is still a strong republican state, and I believe the next election will see not only every republican who voted for Carey back in line for the ticket, but to this num ber will be added many democrat*? who are disgusted with the assault 1 made on the Wyoming wool industry |by the democratic party. That action alone should make Wyoming roll up the biggest republican majority in her history, and I am confident It will.” Mr. Sleeper says the republicans of Wyoming have never been other than 1 republicans; that they voted for Carey I because of local conditions within the party they deemed wise to eliminate, and believes the result last November i will serve to correct the abuses . f which he and other Carey supporters complained. As far as he has talked | with the republicans who voted for Carey, Mr. Sleeper says they will be found supporting the straight repub lican ticket at the next election; that they would not have “insurged” last fall had they thought it would endan ger the election of Senator Clark oi Representative Mondell. Speaking further regarding the Washington del egation. Mr. Sleeper said: “I regard the re-election of Senatoi Warren as one of the certainties of the next election. The state could make r no greater mistake than to send an other in his place, in my opinion, and j I believe I can speak for practically I every republican in Wyoming in this. I Senator Warren is one of the strongest I men in Washington, and is In position ! to do more than ever for the state sinece his elevation to the powerful appropriations committee. No man can question his devoted loyalty to Wyoming, nor belittle his invaluable service to our people as a whole. He is the very life and actuating force of the movement in congress in behalf of the wool industry of the west, and for what he is in position to do for us in this one matter, he should be re turned to the senate just as long is he can be prevailed upon to accept. “Mondoll? When a man can He on tho flat of his back, In a campaign like the last one In our state, and win out like Frank did, its foolish to think of beating him. His defense of the west has endeared him to us, irres pective of politics—and they never will get through counting the Mondell votes next election." ALASKA IN NAME—BUT CORDIAL IN TREATMENT. Alaska in name suggesting frost arm frigidity, but that’s not tho treatment accorded patrons nor is it tho atmos phere of the Alaska saloon of which W. J. Chapman Is the proprietor. He keeps in stock, a splendid line of liquors domestic and imported, and carries a fine line of bottled goods for those wishing that class of merchan dise. At this time of the year when i fishing parties are every day occur ences and trips to the mountains are in order It is especially desirable to know where reliable wines, whiskies and cigars may be had at modernr©; prices. The Alaska saloon is a good place at which to make the purchase! in quantities of such supplies. That which Mr. Chapman recommends w!li never disappoint the buyer. ♦ W. R. COE ARRIVES. W. R. Coe who recently purchased several ranches in Park county and of which Scott Lval! is the manager reached Cody last Saturday and pre ceeded to his ranch. He Is now at the club house and will remain nere unt’i Monday of this coming week. It is stated upon reliavse authority that Mr Coe will make the extensive Improve ments which The Herald spoke exclu sively some months ago. ♦ *#******£************** : A tMusings * J *of Maurice I * jDivers Musing* on things * ♦Qlirn jjHeard and seen in Cody * *************************£ When love’s at the table, we look through the glass to a world of fresh joy In the green of the grass, and/ the birds through the windoW sing as they fly, and the blue of the dawn holds Its ! | place in the sky, while the blooms j nod and beckon, and cleansed of its j dust, we eat and are filled, though we j have but a crust.
