day for that purpose, but no cattlemen
were present and no roundup schedule was
issued. The fencing of land has made large
organized roundups no longer necessary or
profitable in Wyoming and the failure of
cattlemen to take Interest In them results
directly from the passing of the open range.

TREASURER MORTENSEN MAD
Speaki Hii Mind Freely About Veto of
Warrant Registry Bill.
MAYOR BROWN ANNOUNCES HIS POLICY
State Board of Pnhlle lands and
nulldlna Votes to Send (hair
Ised Pnrlnc the Session to
Speaker Roaae.
From a Staff Correspondent
LINCOLN. April .-SpecIal. i The efforts
of State Treasurer Mortrnsen to stop the
practice of heads of state Institutions regis
tering state warrants which he desires as
an Investment for the permanent school
fund, and thereby saving to the state many
thousands of dollars annually, which have
been thwarted by the action of Governor
Mickey in vetoing 11. R. has huildcd
up a block of Ice between these two state
officials. The bill provided that a fee
should be paid Into the treasury for regis
tering warrants and this fee was sufficiently
largo to make the buying of state war
rants a poor Investment.
When Mr. Mortensen became treasurer he
found that banks In which state money
was deposited as well as the heads of
state Institutions were trafficking In state
wnrrants. He has practically stopped ths
brinks from doing this business by refus
ing to give them state money and the in
tent of the bill which was vetoed was to
shut off the state employes from invest
ing In state warrants.
A head of one of the state institutions
has registered over 3,U00 In warrants since
the first of the year, and from the fact
that this man has the handling of the cash
fund of the institution it would take an
Investigation to show whether he is using
his own money or the state's money to
buy these warrants. In fact, nearly all
of the superintendents of state Institutions
register their warrants. These warrants
draw 4 per cent interest and run about
eighteen months. Mr. Mortensen desires
the warrants for the permanent school
fund for the reason he has great difficulty
In finding good investments for this fund
and for the further reason it means a sav
ing to the state of about JW.ouO a year
which would go Into the temporary school
fund In Interest, the warrant Indebtedness
being $2a,0W).
Mr. Mortensen makes no attempt to hide
his feelings about the veto and feels that
tho reasons for the veto as given by
the governor is no reason, especially as
the governor failed to call him In and
discuss tho bill before he vetoed It. This
afternoon Mr. Mortensen had this to say
regarding the veto and the effect It will
have:
What Mortensen Kays.
"Yes, the governor has vetoed H. R.321,
which If It had become a law would prac
tically have saved to our seml-amial state
apportionments all of the KW.OOu Interest
which our state is now paying on Its $2,250,
000 warrant Indebtedness," said Treasurer
Mortensen today.
"But the governor says that "I am con
strained to disapprove rof the act for the
reason that it places an unjust and dis
criminatory burden on the holders of state
obligations who wish to hold them.' How
conscientious and considerate.
"The warrant register shows that a large
per cent of our outstanding warrants not
owned by the state are held by the heads
and employes of our larger state Institu
tions, who do not wish to sell them. Would
It be such an 'unjust and discriminatory
burden' to compel these well paid, well fed
and well groomed servants of our state
to accept the actual cash foe their cjuarterly
or monthly arduous services to the state.
Instead of paying them in Interest-bearing
warrants'? The governor says that It would,
and his veto will relieve them from 'this
'unjust and discriminatory burden' Imposed
by the bill.
"Another worthy class whom the gover
nor, by Ids veto, Is protecting from this
unjust and discriminatory burden are a
few of those who furnish the state fuel,
printing, merchandise, etc.,; who are not
satisfied with their profit on goods sold,
but who seek to obtain an additional profit
by securing interest on their warrants re
ceived, or by selling them at a premium to
warrant brokers, which we have always
with us.
"To protect the personal Interests of this
downtrodden class of our state, the gov
ernor thOHght It his duty to veto H. R. 321,
which was Introduced by the revenue com
mittee of the house and passed without op
position in both houses of our legislature,
and which had for Its sele object to save
the full amount of the $90,000 annual Inter
est charge to our temporary school fund.
How much our educational interest will
lose by this unwise veto cannot be esti
mated at this time."
What Major Brown 'Will !).
Mayor-elect Brown, who will be sworn In
as chief executive of the city next Monday
night, today notified Chief Clements of the
fire department that he was to remain in
his present position, select his own assist
ants and be responsible for the depart
ment. Mr. Brown stated that he intended
to stop the drug stores from selling liquor
and that the blocks would be cleaned of
immoral characters. In gclng after this
class of people, however, Mt. Brown stated
that he would go after the owners of the
blocks instead of arresting the Inmates,
as has been the custom. Very few. If any,
changes will be made ln(the personnel of

executive sessions during Its deliberations
over the assessment of railroad property
and later the equalization of assessments
would mark an epoch in the history of the
state, but such a plan Is now talked of
among the members, nnd nt least some
of them have expressed a desire to hold
every meeting under the glare of the limo
light. That the other three members will
object does not seem probable.
Heretofore it has been customary for
this board to allow representatives of tho
railroads and others to appear and make
argument regarding assessment of prop
erty, then to .exclude visitors and repre
sentatives of the press and deliberate In
secret. Consequently It has been Impossi
ble to tell Just how the board arrives at its
conclusions. Protests have been made
time nnd again against the star chamber
sessions but so far they have fallen on

Of the railroads have been tiled with the
