LABOR SHALL BE FREE RAGE COUNTRY PARTY CLERGYMAN Contributes to the Atlanta Constitution an Interesting Article on the Solution of the Race Problem. VOL. XIII, CLERG Contributes to the Atlanta Co cle on the Solution o Altanta, Ga., Oct. 13.—Dr. James W. Lee, pastor of Trinity M. E. church (South), and until his assignment to this city, pastor of fashionable St. John's church in St. Louis, contributes to the Constitution an intereting disquisition on the race problem in the light of the recent riots in this city. In support of his theory that evangelization for both blacks and whites is the key to the problem, he writes: "It is nearly three hundred years since the makers of our American civilization began to deal with the black man on these shores. It was by no private initiative on the part of the Negro that he left the wilds of Africa to breathe and to be in the new world. He was not consulted as to whether he would come to this American wilderness or not. "He was stolen from his native forests and brought here by the slave dealer and left on the bleak New England coast. He was treated as so many goods and chattles by those determined to get on in the world by the use of, what Shaw calls, "their maral inefficiencies." "The Northern climate was too cold for the denizens of a tropical region. Slave labor in a land of snow and sleet did not pay. Having secured the profit arising from stealing the poor son of Ham out of slavery in Africa and selling him into slavery in America, his his New England owner soon saw that interest on the money he could get by disposing of him altogether was worth more than his labor. "In the course of events the institution of slavery passed entirely from the Northern to the Southern states. "That slavery was wrong is now generally admitted. Every wrong entails a problem that either the person who commits it or some one else after him has to settle. The Southern people are now face to face with the problem which has gradually made its way down to us as the result of a wrong began by the slave traders 300 years ago. "The question is, how are we to solve it? The answer is that we are to solve the problem, after his freedom, just as we solved it during his bondage; that is, by doing our best to make a law-abiding, God-fearing Christian of him. He came to us at the first from Africa as a wild untutored barbarian. "By the use of kindness, by the preaching of the gospel, by the application of human discipline, he was transformed into a useful laborer in the fields, to become a helpful manipulator of iron in the shops, and to be a devout worshiper of God in the churches. "Surely, if our fathers were able to lift him from the level of a savage to that of an English-speaking Godloving law-abiding man by taking hold of his religious nature through the power of the gospel, we, their children in the South, should be able, by the application of the same gospel, to keep him law abiding and God-fearing. "The gospel of love, brought to the world by Jesus Christ and made dynamic by the sacrifice He made of Himself for the whole human race, has not lost any of its power. What it did under the preaching of men like William Capers, bishop in the Methodist Episcopal church, South, long time missionary to the slaves in South Carolina, in keeping the Negroes loyal to the right, loving toward all men, simple, tender-hearted and good, it can do now, if declared to them in the same consecrated fashion. "Every annual conference of the Methodist Episcopal church, South in the slave-holding states, sent out year by year preachers to the slaves. At all our great camp meeting gatherings the Negroes were not neglected; they had their hour, or else seats were provided for them, giving them the same opportunity to hear the gospel as that enjoyed by the white people "On the plantation where I was brought up it was the custom on circuit-preaching day for the Negroes to attend church as regularly as for the white people. They took the communion after the white people were served at the same altar, administered by the same minister. So deeply did our fathers realize the obligations resting upon them to look after the religious welfare of the colored people, that in truth the blacks were dominated and controlled by the same precious scriptural truth felt and acted on by the whites. I have often known some pious servant on the plantatian coming in to report an item of work after supper to be called on by my fath- DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 27, 1906. The Honorable William H. Gabbert is the most talked-of man in Colorado today. The Colorado Statesman therefore invites inspection into his life and services to the state. Justice Gabbert has reached the highest place within the gift of the people, chief justice of the supreme court of Colorado. Justice Gabbert was born on a farm in Scott county, Iowa. At the proper age he began attending the district school in winter months. Later he studied two years in the High School at Davenport, Iowa. When nineteen he entered a law office. In due time he was admitted to practice of law at Davenport and soon afterwards went to Texas, intending to practice his profession in that state, but, after a short residence there, changed his mind about the Lone Star State and returned to his Iowa home. After serving a term as clerk of the District and Circuit courts he was elected city attorney of Davenport. In 1879 he came to Colorado, locating at, Telluride. In 1889 he associated himself with others in organizing the Bank of Telluride. He never held a political office in Colorado until he was appointed judge of the Seventh judicial district by Gov. Waite to fill a vacancy; at the expiration of his appointment he was elected to the office for a full term, and in 1897 was nominated for justice of the supreme court of the state on a fusion ticket. At the election which followed he received eighty per cent. of the entire vote east in his district. He became chief justice of the court some two years ago. Among the most important questions he has been called upon to decide in the field of industry were those involving the rights of cross lodes and tunnel claims, which had never before been passed upon. He wrote the opinion in the case involving them, and when it was appealed to the supreme court of the United States that tribunal fully M. CHIEF JUSTICE GABBERT.

His opinions on irrigation matters also have high rank and in many respects have fixed the law in reference to such interests. Justice Gabbert is now before the people for re-election to the high office he now holds. The decision of "High prerogative and king's bench" is before the people for consideration. In all fairness to Justice Gabbert it ought to be said that the decision works both ways. The Democrats profited by it in several counties at the last election and the Republicans in the city and county of Denver, because here the Democrats were caught red-handed with the goods on them. In the Western Federation troubles Justice Gabbert's decision, curtailing the prerogatives of this union and giving the right to all men who labor, was greatly in the interest of the colored people, who are shut out of these organizations. er to lead in family prayer before leaving the room. When my father went away to the army the Negroes were as obedient and faithful to my mother as if she were not alone with a number of helpless children in their midst. We retired at night without the slightest sense of fear. It never once entered the thought of the women and children left alone during the war on the plantations that any harm could come to one of them from the servants in their cabins. And this confidence was not disappointed. I never heard of a Negro before the war offering even an insult to those over him.

"This condition of mutual good will and confidence can only be accounted for on the grounds of Christian religion cherished in the hearts and practiced in the lives of both whites and blacks alike. --- "It is well known by all who have lived with him that the Negro has vast stories of religious raw material lying in the depths of his nature. The truth is religion is the most important asset of his life. * * * * "The Constitution inquires as to the whereabouts of our Christianity and our consistency in crossing seas for converts to the religion of Christ, and to the morals of Christ, if it be the right thing to ignore the spiritual welfare of 11,000,000 individuals in the embryo state of Christianity waiting our scorts right here at home? I cannot speak for others, but as the thing looks to me there is neither Christianity nor consistency in such action. "All of our churches are doing something toward the support of schools and colleges for the education of colored teachers and preachers. But the direct and sympathetic and patient and constant effort practiced by our fathers to reach and influence the masses of the colored population by the gospel of Jesus Christ is not made by us of the present day. As a general thing the Negroes are left to themselves. Their moral and spiritual condition is pathetic and pliable beyond the power of words to describe. If we continue the policy of letting them alone, of making no determined effort to reach the masses of them by the hardening and making pitiless and Christless the white people who live around them. "The efforts of former generations of Southern slave owners to lift up the Negro transfigured and made beautiful their own lives. But the leaven of the old gospel truth put into the Negro's life before the war no longer works except here and there in the few ante-bellum Negroes left in our midst. "Out in St. Louis where there are about 40,000 Negroes, there is a gentleman of wealth and aristocratic upbringing, who devotes each Sunday afternoon to conducting a large Negro Sunday school. This is not a Northern man, but a Southern Democrat, whose father was a slave owner. Associated with him in this work are a number of leading young men. Why should not something like this be attempted in every Southern city? "One thing is absolutely certain, this is the only way to solve the Negro problem. Our fathers kept it solved this way for 240 years, and we can solve it again and keep it solved forever by practicing the same Scriptural Christian method." Geo. Thompson, a Negro is the best athelete in the University of Indiana. He holds the state record for a half mile. He is being strongly urged for the captaincy of he college track team. NO. 5. GRAND JUNCTION GRAND JUNCTION Personal, Social and Political News of the Grand Valley. Mrs. Arthur W. Jones spent a few days in Palisade visiting friends. Rev. Charles Brown, our new pastor, did not find his study in a very presentable condition. We hope that Rev. Redd found his new charge more inviting than the one he left. The Young Ladies' Carnation and Art Club will entertain next Thursday in honor of the marriage of Mrs. Fannie Warfield to Mr. Williams of Pueblo. The marriage will be solemnized at the beautiful residence of Mr. and Mrs. John H. Newman. Republican success and continued prosperity is the political slogan that is thinning the ranks of the Democratic party. Vote early and vote straight on the 6th day of November, and the whole Republican ticket will be elected. The Republican prosperity train took our city by storm Wednesday, and the cheering and earnest attention paid to the speeches showed that the appeal to reason, facts and proof showed that the Chancellor will be our next governor. J. Finley Wilson of Denver came in on the Republican prosperity special to-day. Mr. Wilson has many warm friends in the Junction. He robbed your correspondent of all the Colorado Statesmans, as they are in great demand all over the Western Slope. Mrs. Mary Ann Reed of Colorado Springs, the mother of Mrs. John Mapps, died at her home last Thursday, and was buried from St. John's Baptist Church last Saturday. On account of the late trains Mrs. Mapps was not able to attend the funeral. Mrs. Reed was a most loveable woman, a devoted mother and a most exemplary wife. She leaves eight children and a husband to mourn her departure. Rev. Ford of Denver officiated. The remains were intered in Evergreen cemetery. Mr. John Hines has a large force of men picking and assorting apples. The crop will realize several thousand dollars. Mr. Leo Williams has closed his restaurant and thinks of locating in New Mexico. Mrs. H. W. Pierson thinks of being able to throw away her crutches very soon. Mrs. Pierson has been sick for the last month. Every voter should cast his ballot, believing his vote for law and Legislature is a vote for Chancellor Buchtel. The eye of Grand Junction is on the Negroes who are to go to the polls on Thursday.

SUCH IS THE NEW RULING InterState Commerce Commission So Interprets the Law—Railroad Tickets Must Be Paid for in Cash—Not Subject to Trade Like Merchandise. Washington.—Under a ruling of the Interstate Commerce Commission, transportation over railroad lines no longer may be given to newspaper publishers or editors in exchange for advertising space. A protest against this ruling has been received from the Massachusetts Press Association, which says the association has voted to enter its protest against the reported ruling in holding that the payment for railroad transportation at full rates in advertising shall be treated on any other basis than that of transportation paid for in cash. In response to the protest Chairman Knapp of the commission says: "You are, of course, aware that all tariffs filed in compliance with the regulating statute names rates in dollars and cents and do not in any case provide that transportation can be paid for property. It seems plain to the commission that the law above quoted, coupled with the fact stated, permits the payment for services of interstate carriers only in money. "A contrary rule would sanction unequal compensation by different persons and involve ordinarily some degree of discrimination in favor of those permitted to exchange their commodities for the transportation they desire or secure. It is the aim of the law to prevent every sort of favoritism and secure equality of treatment in all cases. "This ruling of the commission in no way interferes or abridges the rights of private contracts. Newspapers and their advertising space may be freely exchanged for any species of property upon such terms as may be acceptable to the parties to the transaction. But the facilities of the public are not private property, nor are they subject to bargain and sale like merchandise. The right to travel or have property carried by railway, like the right to common highway, is not a contract right, but a political right, the very essence of which is equality. "Conceding that the advertising arrangements in question are ordinarily made and carried out in good faith, it seems plain to me that these arrangements must involve some measure of discrimination, and it is not easy for me to see how an honest newspaper can seriously object to a ruling of the commission which appears to be in obvious accord with the provisions and the purposes of the regulating statute." POSTOFFICE ESTIMATES. Submitted to Congress by Postmaster General Cortelyou. Washington. — Postmaster General Cortelyou has submitted to the secretary of the treasury for transmission to Congress estimates for the Postoffice Department and the postal service for the coming fiscal year. The amount asked for salaries in the Postoffice Department is $1,528,920, being a net increase of $121,530 over the appropriation for the current year, while the amount asked for the maintenance of the postal service is $206,662,190, net increase over the present appropriation of $15,000,000. The estimates last year were about $12,000,000 of the appropriations for the year before. The apparently large increase in expenditures contemplated by the present estimates, according to the department, represents but a normal advance over the expenditures of last year, made necessary to meet the constantly growing needs of the service and the public demand for improved facilities. The principle items for which increased appropriations were submitted are as follows: Compensations of postmasters, an increase of $1,500,000; compensation to clerks in first and second-class postoffices, an increase of $3,000,000; pay of letter carriers, an increase of $1,156,700; pneumatic tube service, an increase of $250,000; railroad transportation of mails, an increase of $4,600,000; pay of railway mail clerks, an increase of $978,360; foreign mail service, an increase of $268,000; rural delivery, an increase of $1,475,000. A new item of $300,000 for freight and expressage on supplies is incorporated to meet the requirements of the law passed at the last session of Congress, which it is expected will result in a considerable saving to the government. WOMEN FOR LOCAL OPTION. Resolution of Woman's Home Missionary Society. Colorado Springs.—An active part in politics will be taken by the Woman's Home Missionary Society of the Colorado conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church, which concluded its fourteenth annual convention here to-day. The convention decided to issue to all members of the Colorado conference the names of the candidate for the Sixteenth General Assembly, together with advices as to whether or not each candidate has pledged himself to vote for the local option bill, to be introduced during the next session of the Legislature. There are several thousand members of the conference in Colorado, and their vote in favor of the local option candidates for the Legislature will be an important factor in the campaign. The state officers, all of Denver, were re-elected, as follows: President, Mrs. A. C. Peck; vice president, Mrs. W. A. D. Phifer; recording secretary, Mrs. C. M. Kellogg; corresponding secretary, Mrs. H. E. Warner, and treasurer, Mrs. D. K. Lee. Officers were also elected by the various districts comprising the Colorado conference. Trinity church, Denver, was chosen for the 1907 convention place. THEY CURE AN/EMIA Dr. Williams' Pink Pills the Most Successful Remedy for All Forms of Debility. Anemia, whether it results from actual loss of blood, from lack of nutrition due to stomach trouble, or whatever its cause, is simply a deficiency of the vital fluid. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills actually make new blood. They do that one thing and they do it well. "As a girl," says Mrs. Jessie Fink, of 180 East Mill street, Akron, Ohio, "I suffered from nervous indigestion and when I was eighteen years old I was reduced in weight to 93 pounds. I was anemic, nervous, couldn't eat or sleep, was short of breath after the least exertion and had headaches almost constantly. I had a doctor, of course, but I might as well have taken so much water for all the good his medicine did me. Finally my vitality and strength were so reduced that I had to take to my bed for several weeks at a time. I could not digest any solid food and for weeks I did not take any other nourishment than a cup of tea or beef broth "While I was sick in bed I read of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills and I stopped all other medicine and began to take the pills. Soon my improvement was very noticeable. My strength began to return, my stomach gave me no pain and just as soon as I began to take solid food I gained in weight. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills certainly saved my life. I am now perfectly well, have regained my normal weight of 120 pounds and I think Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are a wonderful medicine." These celebrated pills are recommended for stubborn stomach trouble, for all cases of weakness and debility, such as result from fevers and other acute diseases. All druggists sell Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, or they will be sent by mail postpaid, on receipt of price, 50 cents per box, six boxes for $2.50, by the Dr. Williams Medicine Company, Schenectady, N. Y. CASTE IDEA CARRIED FAR. Illustration of Bitterness Between Followers of Mohammed. Here is a tale from O'Donovan's "Merv" illustrating the bitterness of feeling between the various sects of the followers of Mohammed: O'Donovan had offered his Mohammed attendant, who happened to be a Shilte, some of his cold chicken, which the man took at first and chewed ruminantly. Suddenly, however, he spat the mouthful out, exclaiming: "Who cooked this?" since it is a sin for a Moslem to eat food cooked by an infidel. "Oh, it's all right," replied O'Donovan, "it was cooked by your correligionists down there," pointing to a city of Sunnites. "What!" exclaimed Shilte, furiously, "by those infernal Sunnites! I shouldn't have minded much if it had been cooked by you or any other giaour; but by a Sunnite! Pah!!" and he spat again in his disgust. "But what is the difference between Shilte and Sunnite? Aren't both good Moslems?" "What is the difference between us! Don't you know that when a Shilte washes his hands he lets the water drip from the wrist; but when those Sunnites wash their hands they let the water drip from the elbow?" Worry Postal Authorities. Worry Postal Authorities. Because the postal administration has imposed a duty of five pfennigs instead of two on postal cards intended for urban delivery, the citizens of Hanover have inaugurated a singular strike against the postal authorities. Instead of writing postal cards, they all write letters, and, not satisfied with sending their effusions in an envelope, they fill it with newspaper so as to bring the weight of the letter to the maximum of 250 grams. As the envelopes they now use are of the maximum size tolerated it is easy to obstruct a letter box with only a dozen of such missives. The postal authorities are alarmed at this obstruction of the postal service, and it is probable that the former tariff of two pfennigs on postal cards will have to be reestablished. A FOOD CONVERT. Good Food the True Road to Health The pernicious habit some persons still have of relying on nauseous drugs to relieve dyspepsia, keeps up the patent medicine business and helps keep up the army of dyspeptics. Indigestion — dyspepsia — is caused by what is put into the stomach in the way of improper food, the kind that so taxes the strength of the digestive organs they are actually crippled. When this state is reached, to resort to stimulants is like whipping a tired horse with a big load. Every additional effort he makes under the lash increases his loss of power to move the load. Try helping the stomach by leaving off heavy, greasy, indigestible food and take on Grape-Nuts—light, easily digested, full of strength for nerves and brain, in every grain of it. There's no waste of time nor energy when Grape-Nuts is the food. "I am an enthusiast Ic user of Grape-Nuts and consider it an ideal food," writes a Maine man: "I had nervous dyspepsia and was all run down and my food seemed to do me but little good. From reading an adv, I tried Grape-Nuts food, and after a few weeks' steady use of it, felt greatly improved. "Ant much stronger, not nervous now, and can do more work without feeling so tired, and am better every way. "I relish Grape-Nuts best with cream and use four heaping teaspoonfuls at a meal. I am sure there are thousands of persons with stomach trouble who would be benefited by using Grape-Nuts." Name given by Postam Co., Battle Creek, Mich.

TAFT'S THREAT FULFILLED Thousands of Rifles and Carbines Sung in Thirty Feet of Water—Ex-President Palma Preparing a Manifesto.—Will Tell Why He Appealed to Uncle Sam. Havana.—The statement made by Secretary Taft on the eve of his departure from Cuba that he would put all the arms surrendered by the insurgents where they would do no further harm was verified Wednesday when a company of the Cuban artillery spent the afternoon throwing these weapons into the sea from the outer bastion of Morro Castle. Thousands of rifles and carbines were sunk in thirty fathoms of water. Some unrest continues to prevail in the provinces of Puerto Principe and Santa Clara, where small armed bands are roving and committing minor depredations. The residents of Holguin requested protection from troops against a considerable body of former rebels who are reported not to have disbanded, and a battalion of the Elenenth infantry reached Holguin this afternoon. The mayor of the town of Aguacate in the province of Havana, who was ousted from office, was restored to his position Tuesday and organized an armed escort of twenty-five men, alleging that he feared an attack by the Moderates. Governor Magoon Wednesday night ordered Governor Nunez to proceed to Aguacate with troops. Ex-President Palma is now in Matanzas preparing a manifesto which will cover the events of his administration. This document will dwell especially upon his relations with the American administration and his reasons for appealing for intervention. It is addressed to a prominent member of the Moderate party for circulation among the friends and supporters of the ex-president. It probably will be made public later. INDIANA BANDIT. Dummy Train Sent Out, But Fails to Catch Him. Chicago.—"I will be at the side of the tracks somewhere east or west of Pine. When the limited approaches me I will fire two shots from my revolver. Have the money in a bag and drop it off the hind end of the train. If you don't do as I say your train will be blown to atoms with dynamite." This was part of the wording of a letter threatening to blow up one of the Lake Shore passenger trains unless $5,000 was paid over to the unknown writer that caused the Lake Shore road Wednesday night to send a dummy train, filled with armed men out of Chicago, and at a point in Indiana, designated by the bandits, to stop the train. This was done, but no one was found in the neighborhood. As soon as the train slowed up Superintendent Wilson, with a score of United States deputy marshals and railroad detectives, leaped from the coaches and began a hunt that is still in progress. Three posses are searching the Indiana marshes in the vicinity of Pine, Miller and Aetna. Two employees of the Aetna powder works have been arrested. Their rest was caused by the finding in their room of a bottle of nitroglycerine. The bandit, in his letter, instructed the railroad company to carry the money to him on the limited express, which leaves Chicago at 5:30 in the evening. Three letters in all were received from the mysterious writer, and the railroad officials turned the matter over to the United States postal authorities, who planned the "dummy" train to trap the bandit. INDIAN FIGHTER GONE. Death of Maj. Gen. James W. Forsyth at Columbus. Columbus, Ohio.—James W. Forsyth, major general, U. S. A., retired, died at his home here Wednesday night of paralysis. The funeral, which will be private, will be held Friday afternoon, and interment will be made in Greenlawn cemetery. General Forsyth served on McCleland's staff during the peninsula and Maryland campaigns of the Civil War. Later he was chief of staff to General Sheridan. For gallantry at the battle of Chickamauga he was breveted a major. After the Civil War General Forsyth distinguished himself in the frontier service. As colonel of the Seventh cavalry he was ordered against the Indians at Pine Ridge, Dakota, in 1890, when the ghost dance craze was started. In the conflict which ensued almost the entire band of Indians was wiped out. He was promoted to brigadier general by President Cleveland, was appointed major general by President McKinley in 1897, when he retired. Newspaper Man Goes Incane. Leadville, Colo.—Vernon A. Raymond, secretary-treasurer of the Leadville Courier Publishing Company, was adjudged insane Wednesday and sent to the asylum at Pueblo. The case is pathetic. About a week ago he began to show signs of mental aberration, and Sunday night became so violent that his wife had to call upon the police to protect her. Four officers were required to place him in the hospital ward of the county jail. Mr. Raymond came here about a year and a half ago from Aspen and has been in the newspaper business since his arrival. He is twenty-eight years of age and was n arried here a little over one year ago. Here's Special Prices On.

HE kiss, become to-day by simple custom the highest expression of our sentiments of affectionate regard for our parents, our children, our friends, has been introduced into our usages by the ignorance of certain persons desirous of setting a fashion without caring to premeditate on its ill effects. The natural repulsion of being embraced which is seen in children is one of the best proofs that the kiss, far from being an innate impulse of man, is, on the contrary, a simple custom, admitted unknowingly, and capable of engendering in humanity the most cruel evils. Do you think that children ever would be embraced if they were not constrained by their parents? The latter, in their complete ignorance of the evil which may result, urge them to contract a habit which perhaps will be the cause of all sorts of maladies for their little ones. Numerous are the maladies which are communicated to these poor little ones by the observance of this old habit, as unpleasant to them as it is dangerous. How many contagions have we permitted by this gesture which we love to term friendly, sympathetic, affectionate! The poor little creature who passes thus from mouth to mouth out of courtesy does not escape without accumulating some of the microbes which, perhaps innocent for adults, often are injurious to their baby constitutions, as yet unformed. These innumerable microbes, frequently finding a soil favorable to their development and to their multiplication, will effect with sure stroke the children's destruction. The cause of the disease admitted in this way into the organism will remain concealed for some time, during which the system will cover the morbid seeds without manifesting any exterior signs; again, for a long time, in order not to suffer a suspicion of the origin of the evil, these little creatures often will preserve an appearance of perfect health, the while the ill whereof they are the involuntary victims will make ravages in their organisms to which they not seldom succumb. Happily science is here to see the deplorable consequences of these dangerous contacts whose results are perilous to the child. Nothing should prevent the physician and the hygienist from presenting to the unwary the nude truth. There is equal danger in permitting kissing among children, and it is time that parents began to correct this dangerous habit. Since it is impossible to suppress kissing entirely as a general fashion, we at least should seek to diminish the attendant evils, oftenest caused by the ignorance and carelessness of the parents. To this end we counsel the mothers of families with some precautions with respect to their children on their return from their daily walks. A simple bath with soap and ordinary water does not suffice in these cases as antiseptics. A gentle antiseptic solution should be procured by prescription and lightly sprinkled on the face and hands. In addition to this every mother should discourage the practice of kissing. The Husband of the Future By MRS. LEONARD MARSHALL. for more liberty. The domesticated woman he relic of the past.

The domesticated woman has become a rara avis—a relic of the past. Woman breadwinner is the new incarnation of femininity. She has readjusted the scales of life, and the finances are now on the wrong side of the house. Madame goes to business on a bicycle, and expects her so-called better half to wear the aproh! It takes a certain dose of philosophy to reconcile the head of the house to such a subordinate position, but once the first shock is over the benefits conferred upon him are obvious. In fact, all things duly considered, his position is far from proving as distasteful as one might imagine. It carries with it a sense of relaxation from responsibility which is as exhilarating as a holiday on the east coast. Perhaps the only cruelty in the whole change lies in the fact that the mere man is taken out of a groove which had become second nature to him—without having been properly initiated into all the bewildering difficulties of his new "situation." Heredity will not help him, and training he has none, therefore his wife has to be a trifle severe at the outset. We all know that man as a husband and master was a tyrant and an autocrat—when the least thing went wrong in the domestic ececonomy of his house, what abuse did he not pour upon the unoffending head of his unfortunate spouse. Reverse the positions, and admire the sweeter disposition of the wage earning wife. "My dear boy. What have you been doing all day? I beg that you will devote your evening to the study of puddings, on page 34 of that cookery book I presented you with last month. I hate to have to complain, but that lemon pudding is sure to give me indigestion for a week. Yes, dear, I wish I could help you, but you see I have that legal work to type for Mr. Bigwig, and it will keep me up nearly all night. What!—flirting with him—did you use the word flirting, Jack? I am ashamed of you! I will not even attempt to disculpate myself, but just remember that what goes on in my office is no concern of yours. You have your household duties to look after—they should, if you took my interests to heart, keep your hands full. Now, I shall want some strong coffee to keep me awake, and reach me over those cigarettes." "Yes, darling," murmurs the penitent man, and "Would you like a brandy and soda?" "Later on, dear," says the wife, whose good-nature can bear no malice. "Now trot off to bed, for I shall want my breakfast early, as I mean to spin down to the city on my bike." Mothers will have to see that their sons are trained for the new Order of Matrimony. A school for husbands would be a valuable acquisition to the state. There men might study domestic economy, and widowers repent in sackcloth and ashes for the injustice done by them to their dear, dead wives, who had toiled and spun without getting the least recognition for their services.

PROSPERITY IN COLORADO Whether or not prosperity can always be concommitant with politics, one thing is certain, that seasons of political quiet and rest are usually accompanied with seasons of prodigious prosperity. This is certainly true in Colorado, and at no time more so than in the past two years. When political conditions are in a state of quiescence and favorable to investments, money flows into business channels with lavish abundance. Farmers sow, laborers work, contractors build, miners dig, prospectors invest, manufacturers produce, capitalists seek new enterprises, and everybody gets busy. In these times new buildings go up, rents go down, people have plenty of money and give it free circulation. This has been particularly true during the past two years in Colorado and so sure are the people that good times are contemporaneous with Republican administration, that they are afraid to trust a change. The full dinner pail of the McKinley administration is paralleled by a full storehouse, coal bin and pantry during Republican rule in Colorado. Every department in Colorado has felt the power of progress and the people are rejoicing in prosperity and if voting is a help to bring the balance on the right side of the ledger, then you may expect an overwhelming landslide on November 6th. THE CLANSMAN IN PHILA DELPHIA. The American Passion play, the Dixson's "Clansman," had a one-night stand at the Walnut Street theater in Philadelphia last week. It was billed to play a week or more, but the plucky colored people of the city of Brotherly Love petitioned the mayor and city council to have the performance stopped on account of its engendering race feeling and likely to disturb the peace of the citizens. The mayor permitted the performance the first night, taking the request under advisement, but before the second night he had concluded that Mr. Dixon's play was out of place in Philadelphia, and that his performers had better take a rest or move on. The next step to take by the colored people ought to be to get out an injunction prohibiting the performance anywhere in the state. Such action concurred in by other states ought to demonstrate to the manager and playwright that the Negro is organized to fight against being traduced and maligned for the purpose of being made the target of public spleen. Dixon believes he is more than smart by creating sentiment against the Negro, and at the same time expoliting the public, but he is now in a fair way to get his eyes opened to the fact that all people do not share the same prejudices as himself and will not tolerate his vindictive spirit and measures. The Philadelphia mayor established a precedent for other public officials to follow. Kissing of Children a Perilous Practice By DR.

Zion Church Makes Much Progress The church as an institution often stands still for a long time without any apparent signs of moving forward or upward but this stationary attitude is only an evidence of gathering strength for an onward movement when the proper time comes. That the opportune time has arrived for Zion church none can doubt. During the past two years this church has been quietly purchasing down town property while the price is within its reach, so that when values begin to enhance this organization will be in a position to make its property have an earning power and thereby assist the church in its work of helping to lift up the fallen. Two years ago Zion church purchased two additional lots adjoining their present location for $4500. The congrega --- tion inside of twenty months has decreased its debt on these lots to $1400. Last week the members of this body thought it was wisdom to purchase the two corner lots at 20th and Arapahoe Sts, which was done for $6500. The lots contain two houses, a 13 room brick and a six room frame which can be converted into revenue at present until the property is fully paid for and then used for charitable purposes until the church makes up its mind either to build or sell at good advantage. Zion church is now preparing to celebrate its 40th Anniversary which will occur November 12th to 18th. So quietly and serenely has the work been moving forward during the past seven years that its progress has scarcely been noticed but now that its work of the past years is to be reviewed by the congregation and public it will be seen that instead of being dead these people have been much alive and pressing forward at a rapid pace. The people of Denver need to know that this congregation is awake to its opportunities and anxious to put themselves in relation to the public to do the largest good to the largest number. Perry C. Simmons and Brinton S. Jones, of McKeesport, Pa., arrived in the city a few days ago. Mr. Simmons has secured employment in Boulder, while Mr. Jones remains in the city. Talbert--Montgomery Nuptials. One of the prettiest and most elaborate weddings of the year took place at high noon Wednesday, October 24th, when Miss Tennie Ethyl Mortgomery became the wife of Mr. Eugene Hunter Talbert. The ceremony was performed by Rev. W. W. S. Dyett at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Montgomery, 2549 street parents of the bride, in the presence of a large circle of friends. The bride is one of Denver's charming and accomplished young ladies, and in social circles she was one of the foremost leaders, and on her departure for Chicago, Wednesday the Quenn City looses one of its most esteemed and highly respected young ladies and society one of its favorite links. The groom is one of Chicago's industrious young men and holds a clerical position in the Chicago postoffice, while we are not personally acquainted with him, we feel confident in saying that the bride has chosen as a life companion a man whose character is above reproach and we believe that he will cherish the rose he has plucked from our circle. The happy couple received many beautiful and costly presents. Mr. and Mrs. Talbert have the best wishes of the COLORADO STATESMAN for a life of bliss. Local Notices.

Mr. Gulterman's remarks brought forth words of warmest praise and approval from the delegates, who said they regretted that more publicity was not given to the merits of the American Smelting and Refining Company, which is doing so much to build up the mining industry of the West. Mr. Gulterman was made the victim of a misstatement in the Denver papers to the effect that he had retired from the mining congress after making his speech to avoid being asked questions. After this statement was published, a delegate arose and offered a resolution to the effect that the congress knew that Mr. Gulterman sought rather than retired to avoid the issue presented, and that the congress requested the press of the city to correct the erroneous idea that there had been any attempt on his part to evade debate. Among the more striking of the statements made by Mr. Guiterman, during the reading of his paper, were the following: "The senator has stated that in Colorado there is practically no competition. I wish to gain say that statement of his and to declare that in every field in Colorado to-day, no matter whether it be Lake county, or San Juan, Teller county or Mineral county, we have competition on all sides, and that we have at all times been ready to meet such competition in a spirit of fairness and equity to the producer. "With particular reference to the Cripple Creek district, I desire to say to you that the formation of the so-called trust, when the American Smelting and Refining Company absorbed the last remaining great smelter in Colorado, namely, the Philadelphia plant owned by M. Guggenheim's sons, that since that time instead of there being an advance in treatment charges there has been a steady reduction of the same, with the result that there has been more paid to the miner than when individual smelters were operating. "The miner to-day has the privilege of supervision of the sampling at the smelter by his own representative, as he had it before, and he has the privilege of making his own assays. He can resort to the arbitrament of umpire assays as he did before. There is nothing that I know of that has been taken away from him, but what has been done has been done in the interests of eccency and self-protection to ourselves, to which we hold we are entitled. "In Cripple Creek in 1902, and the Guggenheim smelter was taken in 1901, our average margin was $3.69 per ton, the gross value of the ore being $44.41 per ton. In 1905 our average margin had been greatly reduced, so that we were receiving only $7.72 a ton, while the values had increased to the generous sum of $50.47 per ton. In other words, the Cripple Creek producer was receiving $7 per ton more three years after this combination had come into existence. It does not look, consequently, as if we were trying to exterminate that industry. "We found, however, one thing, and that was that in the purchase of these ores grave abuses were being practiced, much to the detriment of ourselves, so that we could not continue the policy of making reductions in treatment charges on that account. We found on the part of the miner that he could utilize the sampler, the smelter, and utilize his own appliances to sample the ores, and that he was insistent on getting the very highest returns on his ores which could possibly be procured by any means. And we also found that in pursuance of these methods the smelters were suffering great damage on account of metal contents which they paid for but which did not exist. "Hence, the circular was issued which the senator has mentioned in hns paper read before you, namely, that we would adopt such means as to fairly ascertain the value of the ore, and having adopted it, we would come together on an agreement as might be to the interest of all parties concerned. There is nothing in the circular mentioned which can possibly be taken exception to by any fair-minded individual. "It may interest you to know, since the senator has mentioned it, and compared us to railways, that our position is entirely dissimilar. Railways are common carriers for public convenience. We are not common receivers. We must exercise the doctrine of selection in the class of material we can utilize. We must exercise with the shipper this doctrine of selection and must determine for ourselves to what extent we can go to the aid and development of this important industry. And thus it appears that to aid them we are called upon very frequently to give to certain shippers facilities to assist them in their development in a manner which could not be universally applied. It is a well-known fact that men will not delve in the ground unless they receive their just reward." Mr. Guiterman then cited figures for nearly all of the prominent mining camps of the state, to show the reductions which had been made on the price of ore treatment in the past few years.

He attended ed services in an old wooden church and while there a rainstorm came up. The roof leaked, and some water fell on Finlen's neck. After the services had ended he asked one of the church officials: "Why in blazes don't you give people a decent place to worship in?" "I suspect it's because we haven't the money," was the suggestive reply. Next afternoon material for a new roof began to arrive in front of the church and Finlen walked into the pastor's study with a check for $750 "Fix up your old roof," is all he said—Indianapolis News.

Dyspepsia Is Often Caused By Catarrh of the Stomach—Peruna Relieves Catarrh of the Stomach and Is Therefore a Remedy For Dyspepsia. Hon. M. C. Butler, Ex-U. S. Senator from South Carolina for two terms, in a letter from Washington, D. C., writes to the Peruna Medicine Co., as follows: "I can recommend Peruna for dyspepsia and stomach trouble. I have been using your medicine for a short period and I feel very much relieved. It is indeed a wonderful medicine, besides a good tonic." CATARRH of the stomach is the correct name for most cases of dyspepsia. In order to cure catarrh of the stomach the catarrh must be eradicated. Only an internal catarrh remedy, such as Peruna, is available. Peruna exactly meets the indications W. L.

A lawyer in the western part of Massachusetts having a rather desperate case to defend, called the court's attention to the wording of the statute, empowering the jury to "judge of the law as well as of the facts," and requested him to instruct accordingly. The judge somewhat reluctantly did so, adding, however, that the jurymen should accept his interpretation of the principles involved unless they were fully satisfied that they knew more law than he did. In spite of this, an outrageous verdict was brought in, utterly contrary to the instructions of the judge, who severely rebuked the jurors. The foreman, a horny-handed farmer, rose to reply. "Judge," said he, "weren't we to judge the law as well as the facts?" "Certainly," was the response, "but I told you not to judge the law unless you were satisfied that you knew the law better than I did." "Well, jedge," answered the farmer, as he shifted his quid, "we considered that p'int." TERRIBLE SCALP HUMOR. Badly Affected with Sores and Crusts —Extended Down Behind the Ears —Another Cure by Cuticura. "About ten years ago my scalp became badly affected with sore and itching humors, crusts., etc., and extended down behind the ears. My hair came out in places, also. I was greatly troubled; understood it was eczema. Tried various remedies so called, without effect. Saw your Cuticura advertisement, and got the Cuticura Remedies at once. Applied them as to directions, etc., and after two weeks I think, of use, was clear as a whistle. I have to state also that late last fall, October and November, 1904, I was suddenly afflicted with a bad eruption, painful and itching pustules over the lower part of the body. I suffered dreadfully. In two months, under the skillful treatment of my doctor, conjoined with Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment, I found myself cured, H. M. F. Weiss, Rosemond, Christian Co., Ill., Aug. 31, 1906." Could Take His Choice. At a recent inquest in a Pennsylvania town, one of the jurors, after the usual swearing in, arose and with much dignity protested against service, alleging that he was the general manager of an important concern and was wasting valuable time by sitting as a juror at an inquest. The coroner, turning to his clerk, said: "Mr. Morgan, kindly hand me 'Jervis' (the authority on juries)." Then, after consulting the book, the coroner observed to the unwilling juror: "Upon reference to 'Jervis,' I find, sir, that no persons are exempt from service as jurors except idlots, 'mbeciles and lunatics. Now, under which heading do you claim exemption?"—Success Magazine. German Life Insurance.

The indemnities paid by German insurance companies amount to about $24,000,000 a month. May Return to America.

Gasoline and Alcohol. The greater safety of alcohol, as compared with gasoline for commercial uses, is due to the fact that it will not ignite from pure radiated heat, as gasoline does; that water will extinguish burning alcohol while it will only spread a fire of gasoline, and that the flames of burning alcohol radiates very little heat while that of gasoline radiates heat very rapidly.

New York Fond of Amusement. There is more money, per capita, spent in New York city every year for amusements than in any other part of the world. The people spend 12 per cent. more than those in the metropolis of any other state or county, 18 per cent. more than those in the next largest cities, 36 per cent. more than those in smaller towns, and 57 per cent. more than those in the rural districts. Laundry work at home would be much more satisfactory if the right Starch were used. In order to get the desired stiffness, it is usually necessary to use so much starch that the beauty and fineness of the fabric is hidden behind a paste of varying thickness, which not only destroys the appearance, but also affects the wearing quality of the goods. This trouble can be entirely overcome by using Defiance Starch, as it can be applied much more thinly because of its greater strength than other makes. Novelist Avenged Dog's Death. Gabriele d'Annunzio has erected a monument to his dog. The inscription is long, beginning: "Sacred to the imperishable memory of my greatest and most faithful friend." The dog was killed by a peasant some months ago. The novelist prosecuted the man, who, at the trial, at Florence, said that he killed the dog because it worried his hens. The author had engaged the services of two notable councilors, at an expense of $1,000, to prosecute. He won, and the peasant was sentenced to ten days' imprisonment. Round and Square Balls. A few years ago there was started in Chelsea, Mass, a semi-secret political organization, and after a few meetings it was decided that a ballot box and ballots were needed.

A brother who was always suggesting amendments moved an amendment that the committee be instructed to procure round white balls and square black balls. Another brother asked him to describe a square ball, which brought the house down and caused the mover of the amendment to ejaculate: "You think you are d—d smart, don't you?"

Sold only in business OPERATIONS AVOIDED Two Grateful Letters from Women Who Avoided Serious Operations.—Many Women Suffering from Like Conditions Will Be Interested. Margrite Ryan Margret Merkley Ask Mrs. Pinkham's Advice—A Woman Best Understands a Woman's Ills. When a physician tells a woman, suffering from female trouble, that an operation is necessary it, of course, frightens her. The very thought of the operating table and the knife strikes terror to her heart. As one woman expressed it, when told by her physician that she must undergo an operation, she felt that her death knell had sounded. Our hospitals are full of women who are there for just such operations! who are there for just such operations: It is quite true that these troubles may reach a stage where an operation is the only resource, but such cases are much rarer than is generally supposed, because a great many women have been cured by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound after the doctors had said an operation must be performed. In fact, up to the point where the knife must be used to secure instant relief, this medicine is certain to help. The strongest and most grateful statements possible to make come from women who, by taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, have escaped serious operations. Margrete Ryan, Treasurer of St. Andrew's Society, Indianapolis, Ind., writes of her cure as follows: Dear Mrs. Pinkham:— "I cannot find words to express my thanks for the good Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound did me. The doctor said I could not get well unless I had an operation for the trouble from which I suffered. I knew I could not stand the strain of an operation and made up my mind I would be an invalid for Hfe. Hearing how Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound had saved other women from serious operations I decided to try it, and in less than four months I was entirely cured; and words fail to express my thankfulness." Miss Margret Merkley, of 275 3d Street, Milwaukee, Wis., writes: Dear Mrs. Pinkham:— "Loss of strength, extreme nervousness, severe shooting pains through the pelvic organs, cramps, bearing-down pains, and an inappropriate blood clot, and a medical advice. The doctor, after making an examination, said that I had a serious female trouble and ulceration, and advised an operation as my only hope. To this I strongly objected—and I decided as a last resort to try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. To my surprise the ulceration bucket, all the support pains, and the more strong, vigorous and well; and I cannot express my thanks for what it has done for me." Serious feminine troubles are steadily on the increase among women—and before submitting to an operation every woman should try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and write Mrs. Pinkham at Lynn, Mass. for advice. For thirty years Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has been curing the worst forms of female complaints, all functional troubles, inflammation, ulceration, falling and displacement, weakness, irregularities, indigestion and nervous prostration. Any woman who could read the many grateful letters on file in Mrs. Pinkham's office would be convinced of the efficiency of her advice and Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. Now Here's the TRUTH ON THE Phone Question Testimony of Prominent Witnesses From Maine to California We asked E. E. Sommers, City and County Clerk of Denver, to wire officially to various cities yesterday and get the opinions of prominent men about the AUTOMATIC telephone. Here are some of the thousands of replies he got. They were too many for one paper to print, so we sent a lot more to the News and Post. Read them ALL, and then ask the local phone trust why they lie about us. If the AUTOMATIC phone is a failure and we are not going to cut rates and give better service, what is the monopoly--- the Colorado Telephone Company-yelling about BELL CUT RATES Have automatic telephone at house and office, find it perfectly satisfactory. Since it's installation here service of the Bell has greatly improved and rates are reduced. W. B. SKELTON, Judge Advocate and Bank Examiner of Maine, Lewiston, Me.

ROBINSON, Ex-Mayor of Portland, Portland, Me. HIGH PRAISE Urge your citizens to adopt the automatic telephone service. You will make no mistake; we are using it and can cheerfully endorse it. I. S. LOGAN, County Recorder, Riverside, Cal. THEY ALL LIKE IT I am like the rest of those who subscribe for the telephone service in this city. We like the automatic system and would not be without it. Los Angeles Securities, Wm. H. CARLON, Ex-Mayor of San Diego, Los Angeles, Cal. LOOKS GOOD TO HIM If I had financial interests at Denver the proposed installation of a new automatic home telephone plant with a proposed expenditure of a large volume of money would look awfully good to me. H. W. FRANK, of Harris & Frank, Clothiers, Los Angeles, Cal FAVORS COMPETITION My opinion is that it is very necissary to have in our different cities competing telephone exchanges of good service, fair rates and treatment, and a large list of subscribers are desirad. Chas. E. SHATTUCK, Architect, Los Angeles, Cal. NO DELAY, PERFECT PRIVACY We use the automatic phone in the Times office and I have it at my residence. Can only say I wouldn't exchange it for the Mutual phone. There is no delay waiting on central during the rush hours and perfect privacy in conversation is afforded. E. A. STOLL, City Editor, South E. A. STOLL, City Editor South Bend Times, South Bend, Ind.

One year ago they put in Automatic phones and my use of same proves them perfect in every respect. In installfing a system in a large city the Automatic system is the only one I would recommend to be considered. F. W. MARTIN, City Comptroller, South Bend, Ind. PREFER IT TO BELL The Automatic plant here has four thousand lines in service in the city besides furnishing connections to about two thousand party lines in the country. The service furnished by their system is superior to any telepnone service that I have ever used and the large majority of our people here prefer it to the Bell service. LINCOLN FROST, Judge of the District Court, Lincoln, Neb.

WILMINGTON TRUST Co., S. D. Townsend, Treas., Wilmington, Del. AUTOMATIC IS BEST Since advent of Automatic telephone in our city the telephone service has not only improved 100 per cent. but the rates for the telephone service on individual lines has been reduced from $60 to $36 per year, and the number of subscribers increased three fold. The Automatic service is rapid. accurate and secret, and Manual telephones are not in the same class. Wm. H. NEWELL, Jndge of Probate for Androscoggin county and ex-Mayor of Lewiston, Me., Auburn, Me. A YEAR'S PROOF We have been using the Automatic telephone system for the past year and consider it a perfect success. Believe it has great merit over other systems. A. L. CLARK, President First National Bank, Hastings, Neb. IS THROUGH WITH BELL We have five Automatics and no Bells since citizens started. Automatic expedite time required for telephone calls fully one-half. Would not go back to manual service if Automatics cost one hundred dollars per year. TRADESMAN Co. E. A.

BLACK, Vice President Security National Bank. Sioux City I. THE ONLY GOOD SYSTEM The Automatic has given perfect satisfaction and I consider it the only up-to-date system. J. G. FLIETH, Cashier National German-American Bank, Wausau, Wis. VERY SATISFACTORY We have been using the Automatic Telephones in our offices during the past two years and their service has been entirely satisfactory to us. W. S. BRADLEY, Cotton Factors and Wholesale Supply Merchats, Columbus, Ga NO EXTRA EXPENSE I very gladly add my endorsement to that of many other subscribers of my acquaintance in Dayton in favor of the Automatic service as against the Bell company. I can hardly refrain from suggesting the advisability of a second telephone in every town. The idea that it creates unwarranted extro expense to the subscriber is from my own experience fallacious. The service of the Automatic company is good and has been since the start. The service of the Bell company which for years was none too good, has been greatly improved and the result of competition has been a remarkable growth in the number of telephones which it is possible to reach in and about this city. J. T. BARLOW, President The Barlow Dry Goods Co., Dayton, O. HAS GOOD BACKING The Automatics are the best people and only telephone service. The whole coast is back of them. THE J. C. LEE Co., Portland, Ore. BUSINESS GROWING The Automatic Telephone service is the best. We never had good service in Battle Creek until the Automatic was installed. This exchange has grown 50 per cent in the past year. EDW. C. HINMAN, President American Steam Pump Co., Battle Creek, Mich.
