The writer argues against the Underwood tariff by recalling the Paine Aldrich bill era when hides were free. He claims Wyoming cattle and sheep producers benefited little from tariffs once removed, as the leather and wool trusts dictated prices. The piece predicts wool prices would rise with protections, defending Woodrow Wilson in the process.

Only One in Ten Has A Filter in Rocky Mountain Cities
The Leader reports from fifty cities in the Rocky Mountain region that only five have filtration systems and not all are satisfactory. Cheyenne’s water system is praised for its current supply, while Fort Collins’ Roberts filter is deemed inadequate after investigation. Cheyenne faces questions why a similar service costs higher there with a large sugar refinery and rail traffic consuming 4,000,000 gallons daily, yet a comparable plant is priced at 810,000 in Fort Collins and 875,000 in Cheyenne.
