THE COLORADO STATESMAN THE JOURNAL OF THE WEST. LABOR SHALL BE FREE RACE COUNTRY PARTY MEDICAL COLLEGE For Negroes, with two Exceptions found to be in Bad Condition. Howard and Meharry Commended by Carnegie Foundation for Advancement Of Teaching. VOL. XVI. MEDICA For Negroes, with two Except dition. Howard and Meh negie Foundation for Adv The Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching, which in the five years of its existence has already exerted a powerful influence for good upon institutions for higher education throughout the country, has just issued its bulletin number 4 showing the result of a very exhaustive inquiry into the subject of "Medical Education in the United States and Canada." In the chapter devoted to the medical education of the Negro, the bulletin reads: "The medical care of the Negro race will never be left wholly to the care of Negro physicians. Nevertheless, if the Negro can be brought to feel a sharp responsibility for the physical integrity of his people, the outlook for their mental and moral improvement will be distinctly brightened. The practice of the Negro doctor will be limited to his own race, which in its run will be cared for better by good Negro physicians than by poor white ones. But the physical well-being of the Negro is not only of moment to the Negro himself. Ten million of them live in close contact with sixty million whites. Not only does the Negro himself suffer from hookworm and tuberculosis; he communicates them to his white neighbors, precisely as the ignorant and unfortunate white contaminates him. Self-protection not less than humanity offers weighty counsel in this matter; self-interest seconds philanthropy. The Negro must be educated not only for his sake, but for ours. He is, as far as human eye can see, a permanent factor in the nation. He has his rights and due and value as an individual, but he has, besides, the tremendous importance that belongs to a potential source of infection and contagion." "The pioneer work in educating the race to know and to practice fundamental hygienic principles must bedone largely by the Negro doctor and the Negro nurse. It is important that they both be sensibly and effectively trained at the level at which their services are now important. The Negro is perhaps more easily "taken in" than the white; and as his means of extricating himself from a blunder are limited it is all the more cruel ORIGINAL IN FOOR CONDITION to abuse his ignorance through any sort of pretense. A well taught Negro sanitarium will be immensely useful; an essentially untrained Negro wearing an M. D., degree is dangerous." "Make-believe in the matter of Negro medical schools is therefore intolerable. Even good intention helps but little to change their aspect. The Negro needs good schools rather than many schools, schools to which the more promising of the race can be sent to receive a substantial education in which hygiene rather than surgery, for example, is strongly accentuated. If at the same time these men can be imbued with the missionary spirit so that they will look upon the diploma as a commission to serve their people humbly and devotedly, they may play an important part in the sanitation and civilization of the whole nation. Their duty calls them away from large cities to the village and the plantation, upon which light has hardly as yet begun to break." "Of the seven medical schools for Negroes in the United States, (Washington, D. C.; Howard University: New Orleans; Flint Medical College; Raleigh, N. C.; Leonard Medical School; Knoxville: Knoxville Medical College: Memphis; Medical Department of the University of West Tennessee; Nashville: Meharry Medical College; Louisville: National Medical College,) five are at this moment in no position to make any contribution to the solution of the problem above pointed out; Flint at New Orleans, Leonard at Raleigh, the Knoxville, Memphis, and Louisville schools are ineffectual. They are wasting small sums annually and sending out undisciplined men, whose lack of real training is covered up by the imposing M. D., degree." "Meharry at Nashville and Howard at Washington are worth developing, and until considerably increased benefactions are available, effort will wisely concentrate upon them. The future of Howard is assured; indeed, the new Fredman's Hospital is an asset the like of which is in this country extremely rare. It is greatly to be hoped that the government may display a liberal and progress- sive spirit in adapting the administration of this institution to the requirements of medical education." "Meharry is the creation of one man, Dr. George W. Hubbard, who, sent to the south at the close of war on the errand of mercy, has for a half-century devoted himself singly to the elevation of the Negro. The slender resources at his command have been carefully husbanded; his pupils have in their turn remembered their obligations to him and to their school. The income of the institution has been utilized to build it up. The school laboratories are highly creditable to the energy and intelligence of Dr. Hubbard and his assistants. The urgent need is for improved clinical facilities.—a hospital building and a well equipped dispensary. Efforts now making to acquire them deserve liberal support." "The upbuilding of Howard and Meharry will profit the nation much more than the inadequate maintenance of a larger number of schools. They are, of course, unequal to the need and the opportunity, but nothing will be gained by way of satisfying the need or of rising to the opportunity through the survival of feeble, ill equipped institutions, quite regardless of the spirit which animates the promoters. The subventions of religious and philanthropic societies and of individuals can be made effective only if concentrated. They must become immensely greater before they can be safely dispersed."—Advocate. THE NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF COLORED GRADUATE NURSES. Miss Martha M.

Lead avenue, where they will be pleased to receive their friends, after the following Thursday. New Mexico is preparing for a constitutional convention, according to the recent statehood bill, which was recently enacted with the Senate amendment. All races joined in a jolification meeting last Monday. The Negro was made welcome, to the festivities, yet it might be that the Negro was rejoicing at his own funeral, for no one at this time can tell just what kind of a constitution will be framed by the convention, for the recent statehood enactment is not so rigidly drawn, that our rights could not be infringed upon, by a hostile convention. Every Negro in the Territory should put his shoulder to the wheel and help the Republicans to win the statehood fight, for to the Negro all else is sea. RACE NEWS A $250,000 company, which has for its object the establishment of a Negro cotton factory in Norfolk has been formed. It is to contain ten thousand spindles. It has been seen that the Negroes receive about $270,000 for their cotton, when if it was manufactured they would get $600,000. Washington.—A bill has been introduced in Congress by Representative Byrd, of Mississippi, to prohibit in the District of Columbia, the intermarriage of whites with Negroes and Mongolians. The penalty prescribed for violation of the proposed statute is imprisonment for not less than two years or a fine of $500 or both, in Liberia's financial affairs. As a result, a group of American bankers, are negotiating a loan to Liberia of $1,500,000. The tentative terms proposed by the bankers are regarded by this government, it is said, as, entirely consistent with the best of the African republic. Washington, June 21.—By a vote of 159 to 87 the house Monday defeated a bill relating to the emancipation of the Negro. The bill provides for the creation of a commission to determine the visibility of celebrating is 1915 the semi centennial of the emancipation of the Negro. The bill was introduced in accordance with a Frederick, Okla.—Incensed over an assault case, whites of this town gave orders that every Negro in this vicinity pack up and leave. Because of their small number, they immediately began to obey and by tomorrow night it looks as if every Negro will be gone. Negroes in business are going away, leaving their stock of merchandise and store fixtures. Fearful conditions. For the first time since 1867 in the south a Negro magistrate sentenced two white men to jail for selling liquor in Hobson City, Ala, a colored town. Magistrate Adison Snow imposed a fine on each of them and they, being unable to pay were sent to jail. The culprits are to be praised for their submission to the mandate of the Negro judge. Many white men would have started a riot rather than be incarcerated by a Negro. William C. Moulton, who was formerly a member of the Williams and Walker Company, and until a few months ago was George W. Walker's traveling companion, died Sunday evening of a complication of diseases. Funeral services were held over the remains Tuesday afternoon at Cypress Hills Cemetery. The services were largely attended by friends of the deceased. He is survived by a sister, Mrs. Harry A Williamsonson of Brooklyn. Washington, June 20. With the probability of Liberia being unable to meet her obligations growing out of a loan to her by a British syndicate, the American Government has interested itself NO.42 in Liberia's financial affairs. As a result, a group of American bankers, are negotiating a loan to Liberia of $1,500,000. The tentative terms proposed by the bankers are regarded by this government, it is said, as, entirely consistent with the best of the African republic. Washington, June 21.—By a vote of 159 to 87 the house Monday defeated a bill relating to the emancipation of the Negro. The bill provides for the creation of a commission to determine the advisibility of celebrating is 1915 the semi centennial of the emancipation of the Negro. The bill was introduced in accordance with a recommendation made by President Taft. It was considered Monday night under suspension of the rules. In these circumstances the bill fails unless it receives the support of two-thirds of the members present. The Republicans forced a vote on the measure with a view of embarrassing the Democrats. Admitted to Priesthood. St. Paul, Minn., June 20.—Amoung the sixteen students to be admitted to the Priesthood of the Roman Catholic church several days ago was Rev. Stephen L. Theobald, who enjoys the distinction of being the first Negro educated in a Northern seminary. The new priests were ordained in St. Mary's Chapel, St. Paul Seminary. Holy Orders were administered by Rt. Rev. Patrick J. Heffron. Rev. Theobald was born in British Guiana thirty five years ago, and educated in the Cathedral common school of Georgetown, and afterwards in St. Stanislaus college, conducted by the Jesuit fathers, where he studied classics and philosophy. He graduated from the college in 1890, taking the junior diploma of the University of Cambridge in England, and, after a post graduate course in classics at Queen's College of British Guiana he took the senior diploma of Cambridge. In December, 1905. Rev. Theobald left the Canadian city for St. Paul, where he entered the St. Paul seminary as an ecclesiastical student under the patronage of Archbishop John Ireland. He will reside at the seminary until assigned a parish by Archbishop Ireland. ```markdown ``` East Turner 2132-2148 ARAPAHC Phone 2449.

The bankers of Kansas City and of the Southwest dependent on the Kansas City banks, have agreed to lend no money to anyone who intends to use the cash for the purchase of a motor car. This boycott is brought about, the bankers say, by the extravagance of the country in the purchase of automobiles. Thirty-two million dollars were invested in motor cars in the last year in Kansas. One Kansas City banker stated that his safe contained fifty-two real estate mortgages, the money for which he knew went for the purchase of automobiles. GENERAL.

SPORT. State Senator "Big Tim" Sullivan of New York, stakeholder for the Jeffries-Johnson fight, says there is no basis for the stories that the championship fight is "fixed." Gov. Denver S. Dickerson of Nevada visited the training camps at Reno Tuesday, and, according to Tex Rickard, after the visit, "The governor says the fight is to come off July 4, and I guess that goes."

According to the terms of the sale Jeffries is to receive $50,000 of the amount and Rickard $25,000. The only condition stipulated by the purchasers is that the fighters are to enter the ring and begin the battle. FOREIGN Emperor William will be at the wheel when the yacht Meteor again tries conclusions at Kiel with the American schooner Westward, owned by Alexander S. Cochran of New York. Twenty persons were injured, six of them mortally, by the explosion of a bomb hurled from the gallery in the Teatro Colon, Buenos Ayres, Monday night. Among the injured are members of some of the most prominent families in the Argentine capital. The Americans interested in the long and bitter fight waged by rival interests and German newspapers against the Deutsche Vacuum Oil Company, one of the branches of the Standard Oil Company, have just scored a big victory, the public prosecutor, after a thorough investigation, having decided that no necessity exists for action by his office against the concern. An important part of the investigation was in connection with the work of E. L. Quarles, American manager of the German company's sales department, and the prosecutor declares no evidence of anything warranting prosecution was found against Mr. Quarles. The costs of the entire inquiry will be bore by the state and the result constitutes a notable triumph for American interests in Germany. The cholera situation in the South of Russia is so serious that physicians are predicting the worst scourge of the last generation. Count Zeppelin's passenger airship Deutschland, the highest developed of all the famous aeronaut's models, was wrecked Tuesday on top of the Teutoburgian forest.

The American Medical Association, through a council on medical education, has been conducting an investigation of all medical schools and colleges in the United States. The investigation has extended over a period of six years, and is said to have included at least two personal inspections of each medical school. The result of the investigation has just been published. When the council began its work there were 168 medical schools in the United States, of all classes. The number has been reduced to 133, and the council has classified these according to their actual standing and condition as revealed by the investigation. It is specially declared that the ratings were made with efficiency. Class A comprises the schools that were rated over 70 per cent perfect, and there are seventy of them. Class B was rated from 50 to 70 per cent perfect. These are unsatisfactory in certain particulars; the report states, but capable of improvement to a satisfactory basis; there are twenty-nine schools in this class. Class C comprises the schools falling below a rating of 50 per cent. Some of these schools are regarded as hopeless; others can be made satisfactory only by thorough reorganization along more advanced lines, says the report, and there are twenty seven schools in this class. Then follows the important and rather surprising statement that the schools for colored students have been classified on a still more efficient basis." This is justified not on the ground of any racial difference, but on account of peculiar educational conditions. These seven schools have been notified of the rating given them, with recommendations as to their needs. After thanking this board of investigators for their leniency of colored schools, we have a sense of the embarrassment which the schools themselves must feel to be rated with greater leniency than the seven white schools, many of which are declared to be hopeless. We have some regard for the necessity for colored medical schools, but we must have very little sympathy with those peculiar educational conditions which permits them to remain so invidiously inefficient, we do not believe that any school that is hopelessly inefficient, should be allowed to graduate doctors. Distrust of the character of a doctor's training plays havoc in many ways with colored people's need for inter-dependence and self-reliance. The character of the profession such that no sensible person can feel willing to become an experiential subject for ignorant diagnosis nor to take the place of a doctor before he is dead. Colored medical schools should be required to attain a standard efficiency equal to, or closely approaching that maintained by white schools. If conditions in any part of the country seem to necessitate the toleration of inefficient and therefore dangerous standards, some means should be provided to send colored medical students elsewhere, beyond the influence of a prejudice that endangers and sares lives. The standard of colored schools of every character can and should be raised. Toleration and excuse of evil conditions grow and more unjustifiable as the race itself advances. There are hundreds of highly efficient colored doctors graduated from northern schools and there might better be more if colored schools cannot rapidly take themselves efficient.

DISCLOSING THE CRIMINAL The Japanese boy, Mitisunga, who was arrested at McCook, Nebed brought back to Denver to answer the charge of having murderers. Katherine Wilson at her residence on Capitol Hill on May 7 while employed at house-cleaning, was discovered and put within reach the local law officers by one of his own countrymen. The police department was pretty much at sea in its search for the Oriental, and little chance of apprehending him by the methods usually employed to seek out fugitives from justice, for the Caucasian law office seemingly afflicted with the universal disadvantage of having very secure ideas of the characteristics, habits and facial differences of the individual members of other races. The assistance of members of the race to which the suspect belongs is therefore invaluable in a The Japanese boy, Mitisunga, who was arrested at McCook, Neb., and brought back to Denver to answer the charge of having murdered Mrs. Katherine Wilson at her residence on Capitol Hill on May 7, while employed at house-cleaning, was discovered and put within reach of the local law officers by one of his own countrymen. The police department was pretty much at sea in its search for the Oriental, and had little chance of apprehending him by the methods usually employed to seek out fugitives from justice, for the Caucasian law officer is seemingly afflicted with the universal disadvantage of having very obscure ideas of the characteristics, habits and facial differences of the individual members of other races. The assistance of members of the race to which the suspect belongs is therefore invaluable in all such cases. The willingness of the Japanese subject to lend aid in the uncovering of his countrymen who commit serious crimes, indicates his wisdom and farsightedness, for it establishes confidence in the general moral and law-abiding character of his countrymen as a whole, while living in a country and among a people foreign to them. The impression created among Americans is far-reaching and highly beneficial to the Japanese colony as a whole. The same condition arises among other elements separated from the Caucasian by racial differences. It is often alleged that colored people are prone to hide their alleged criminals from the law-officers that are put on their tracks, and that some peculiar racial instinct or supposed fear of injustice restrains them from disclosing the known hiding place of the culprit sought. There may be some truth in this charge and some half-plausible excuse for it, but it has been often preved untrue. Whatever instinctive dread of injustice may be felt in such cases ought to be eradicated, for the reputation is a bad one and full of injury to the truthful and law-abiding citizen. We ought to make it an axiom among us that a harbored criminal taints us all. We ought to make it an accepted obligation upon us to take up the active search for persons of our race who are charged with the commission of serious crimes, and make their escape, through any connivance or neglect on our part, an impossibility. The more earnestly we do this, the fairer will be the trials accorded the culprits and the higher will be the moral standing of our general population. The conspiracy of silence" feature of the notorious Brownsville case, and much of the injustice that resulted, was based upon this supposition that we are disposed to hide our criminals. The supposition is not half true and should be entirely dispelled. For this purpose it would be much to everybody's advantage if more colored officers, and especially detectives, were added permanently to the police departments of our large cities. The great body of colored people are honest and are eager to establish and preserve their moral integrity. WELL-KNOWN journalist, whose pungent witticisms and clever practical jokes still are remembered by those who years ago knew him and them, used to say that he never teased anyone whom he did not like; certainly his best friends often were the victims of his most merciless jokes, whether verbal or practical. It is much upon this principle that the world manifests its proverbial love for lovers by laughing at them, and there is nothing which is more a stock subject for jest than the ordeal of "asking pana."

It is not pleasant for a man to have to recognize the fact that he is regarded with suspicion by the father and mother of the girl whom he loves. If the man did but know it, reluctance upon the part of a woman's relatives to give her up is a strong testimonial to her value. Parents who love their daughter consider it their bounden duty to exercise wise forethought before entrusting her to a comparative stranger and such a one has no cause to object to being closely questioned before he is welcomed into the family.

A Greatest Is Ordeal of Asking Father By HELEN OLDFIELD In reply to the inquiry of a hay-fever sufferer in regard to the time he may safely return after being away to an immune region, I would say that this time is never a fixed date. Cases that begin about August 15 are generally due to ragweed or goldenrod. The sufferers go away to escape the particular pollen which poisons, owing to certain diseased nasal condition. As long as this condition is allowed to exist this pollen continues to be poisonous until killed by frost. It is generally safe to return after the first or second frost. People "Tobacco heart" is not given as the cause of death in any case, nor are physicians required to report the disease to the health department. I have found a great many cases of "tobacco heart" in my own private practise and there is little doubt but what we call "tobacco heart" is not confined to men who use tobacco to excess. A similar affection comes from drinking too much coffee or tea or indulging in other excesses. I have never believed, and don't believe now, that the moderate use of tobacco, coffee or tea is harmful to the extent that any Don't smile at another man's failure.

Waldo in the Philadelphia Ledger. The two collaborators had a clear idea of the articles of which the Declaration was to consist, for there had been prolonged discussions in committee, of which careful notes were taken. The little sub-committee of two men met and conferred together, and Jefferson asked Adams to take the written memoranda to his lodgings and there prepare the draft. But Adams, self-effacingly, insisted that the laborious honor should fall to his colleague. "You are a Virginian," said Adams, "and I am a Massachusetts man. You are a southerner and I am from the north; I have been so obnoxious for my early and constant zeal in promoting the measure that any draft of mine would undergo a more severe scrutiny and criticism in congress than one of your composition. And finally—and that would be reason enough if there were no other—I have a great opinion of the elegance of your pen and none at all of my own." Whereupon, bowling deeply and with protestations of mutual regard, the patriots went their several ways, Jefferson with the manuscript under his arm. And in a day or two they met again and "conn'd the paper over." "I was delighted with its high tone." Adams wrote in 1822 to Timothy Pleering. But to the part containing the denunciation of King George he took exception. "I thought the expression too passionate and too much like scolding for so grave and solemn a document." Nevertheless, he had no amendment to suggest, and the draft ```markdown ``` THE COURT Famous Old Independence Hall. of the declaration was put before the committee of five just as Jefferson had prepared it. The desk upon which the declaration was drafted is in the library of the state department at Washington. It was exhibited at Buffalo in the Pan-American exposition in 1901. The final debate in congress, in the committee of the whole, upon the adoption of the Declaration of Independence began at nine o'clock on Monday, July 1. On that day Pennsylvania, seven of whose delegates were present, voted against adoption. The vote of Delaware, having two delegates present, was divided. Thereupon McKean of Delaware, who had voted affirmatively, wrote a frantic letter to the absent Delaware delegate, Caesar Rodney, imploring him to come and cast his vote, and thus turn the scale for Delaware, for it was highly probable that if Delaware supported the declaration Pennsylvania would follow suit. Rodney at the time was 80 miles away, at Dover, at one or the other of his farms, Byfield and Poplar Grove. He suffered tortures from the cancer, which, starting on his nose, had spread all over one side of his face, so that he to had wear a green silk shield to hide the disfigurement; it was of this chronic affliction that he died. A contemporary chronicle describes him as "an animated skeleton—indeed, all spirit, without corporeal integument." McKean's messenger left Philadelphia late in the afternoon of July 1. It was necessary to get Rodney back to Independence hall by July 4, the day appointed for taking the vote upon the adoption of the declaration. All night, all day he rode at top speed; and Rodney is supposed to have started on the return journey in the evening of the second. That ride of Rodney's deserves to C go down in history alongside of Paul Revere's and Philip Sheridan's. In default of missing detail the imagination must provide the picture of the tall, gaunt spectre of a man, half-masked and riding like a demon, urging his steed onward through the night with whip and spur, along a road abounding in pitfalls, with black miles separating one warm, yellow cabin light from the next. What was he thinking of as he rode onward? Not of the pain of the cancer, slowly eating away his countance and sapping his vitality; not of the risk he ran, a solitary horseman, of being waylaid and robbed or murdered upon the lonely journey. He heeded not the hunger and the sleeplessness; he was thinking only of the fact that his vote would turn the day for Delaware; Delaware, though a little state, might influence Pennsylvania, and so the vote of the colonies would be unanimous for a declaration that would immortalize the men who made and signed it, and enfranchise the people of the 13 colonies and their descendants. Next day, Thursday, July 4, as the members were assembling at the state house door, a rider, booted and spurred and covered with the dust of night-and-day travel, dismounted in their midst, and when, a little later, Caesar Rodney rose in his place, still breathing hard, and said, "I vote for independence," the result was that the vote of Delaware was cast in favor of the declaration, Pennsylvania, by three of her five delegates present, supported Delaware's action, and thus by the ride of Rodney the unanimous vote of the colonies (with the solitary and temporary exception of New York) was that day secured for the Magna Charta of our American liberties. "It was two o'clock in the afternoon," Lossing tells us, "when the final decision was announced by Secretary Thomson. When the secretary sat down a deep silence pervaded that 12 august assembly. Thousands of anxious citizens had convened in the streets. From the hour when congress convened in the morning the old bellman had been in the steeple. He placed a boy at the door below to give him notice when the announcement should be made. As hour succeeded hour, the graybeard shook his head, and said, 'They will never do it! They will never do it!' Suddenly a loud shout came up from below, and there stood the blue-eyed boy, clapping his hands and shouting 'Ring! ring!' Grasping the iron tongue of the old bell, backward and forward he hurled it a hundred times, its loud voice proclaiming 'Liberty throughout all the land, unto all the inhabitants thereof.' The excited multitude in the streets responded with loud acclamations, and with cannon peals, bonfires and illuminations the patriots held glorious carnival that night in the quiet city of Penn. Union and Liberty. Flag of the heroes who left us their glory, Borne through their battlefields' thunder and flame, Blazoned in song and illumined in story, Wave o'er us all who inherit their fame! Up with our banner bright, Spread its fair emblems from mountain to shore, While through its sounding sky Loud rings the nation's cry Union and Liberty! One Evermore! --- THE RELATION OF RAILROAD RATES TO GENERAL BUSINESS. To the Business Man: No matter how objectionable an advance in freight rates may be to us personally, we must recognize that an improvement in general business is dependent on a betterment of operating and financial conditions of the railroads. That the operating results are most unsatisfactory is readily seen by the latest INTER-STATE COMMERCE COMMISSION reports, which show that for the nine months ended April 1st, 1910, eleven railroad systems, all West and North of a line drawn from Chicago to St. Louis, compared with the same roads for the same period in the previous year, had their gross earnings increased about $50,000,000.00, while their net earnings showed a decrease of $3,500,000.00, and for the month of March, on the same comparison, they show an increase of $7,000.000.00 in gross and a decrease of $965,000.00 in net earnings. Attention is called to the fact that the wage increases, (except a small amount,) were not in force during this period, and from now on these will greatly increase the operating cost. These same railroads had their taxes increased over the previous year $2,500,000.00, or 14% and have to pay higher rates of interest on their loans. These roads covering the most prosperous part of the country may be considered representative of general railroad conditions. During the past three years of poor business, railroad expenditures for maintenance were necessarily at the lowest point, and in consequence their motive power equipment and tracks now demand a greater proportion of operating expense. No provision has been or is being made for the growing demands of the country, and as transportation is the backbone of business, its weakness or inefficiency cripples every other condition; because all products are valuable in the ratio with which their accessibility to the consuming market. It is most important to the shipper; that railroads at all times are fully equipped to take care of an increase of his business. The first eight months of 1907 demonstrated that the railroads could not handle the business then offered with any degree of satisfaction. The financial conditions since have not permitted them to even maintain their then position. If the then volume of business were to come back supplemented by the three years growth of the country in the interval, transportation would be paralyzed; and what would that cost the shipper compared with a reasonable advance in freight rates now? Such an advance would provide the means for avoiding this impending disaster. The iron horse needs to be kept in good condition for the same reason as the living horse used for transportation. The teamster knows that if his horse is not well shod, well groomed and well fed, and his harness and wagon kept in good repair, that all he will save on such economy will be many times wasted in the efficiency of his transportation, and also add great expense to the shipper. It is exactly the same with the railroads; the shipper has a right to demand that transportation be ample and efficient; the success of his business and the development of the country are dependent on it. The Investor: To do this, the railroad must show adequate returns to maintain proper borrowing credit and present a promising source of investment to procure the necessary funds to improve and develop the property as needed. It is neither the railroad president nor the shipper that controls the situation; it is the investor alone who holds the key; without his uninvested dollar the railroad cannot extend or improve, no matter how great the needs of the shipper or the country may be. With all the increasing cost of operation, supplemented by ever increasing and burdensome legislative restrictions concerning their earnings, in face of the fact that the average dividend rate on railroads was less than $3½ per cent for the past six years, and the United States Supreme Court in the case of the Consolidated Gas Company stated that "6 per cent was a fair return on money invested in public utilities," with the average freight rate in 1909 of three-quarters of a cent per ton per mile, the lowest in nine years, the average passenger rate per mile, one and nine-tenths cents, the lowest ever reached, is it any wonder that the investor holds back and the Bankers demand high interest rates from the railroads? The railroads need $2,000,000,000.00 to put their lines in proper condition, and to increase their terminal facilities at all points that are even now a necessity, and $1,000,000,000.00 more for modern new Incorrect Phraseology. Speaking of the comet as a "celestial wanderer," when its orbit is fixed and known and its place in the heavens determined at any time, is about as correct as speaking of a "dash to the pole" when the dasher is doing well to make ten miles a day—New York Tribune. Leisure Essential. Trees, fields, sunsets, rivers, breezes and the like, must all be enjoyed at leisure, if at all. There is not the slightest use in a man's paying a hurried visit to the country. He may as well go there blindfolded as go in a hurry. He will never see the country. He will have a perception, no doubt, of hedgerows and grass, of green lanes and silent cottages, perhaps of great hills and rocks, of various items which go toward making the country; but the country itself he will never see.—Country Parson. motive power and equipment to move their freight with promptness and economy. Where can they get the money? Only by increased earnings from advanced rates, and by so doing better their credit by attracting the uninvested dollars that are now going to other more attractive but less productive investments. What will the advance cost the Ultimate Consumer? Poor's Manual says the average haul of all freight in 1908 was 142 miles. The average rate in 1909 was three-fourths of a cent per ton per mile. The average total rate for the average total haul, assuming it to be the same as 1908, would be $1.06 per ton. An advance of 10% on this rate would increase the cost 10 cents per ton, or 1-200 of a cent per pound. An advance of 10% on the present specific rates would increase the cost of 100 pounds dressed beef in New York, shipped from Chicago, $4 \frac{1}{2} $ cents; 100 pounds canned fish in St. Louis, shipped from Maine, 1 8-10 cents; 100 pounds flour in New York, from Minneapolis, 2 cents; a suit of clothes in Chicago, from Boston, $ \frac{1}{2} $ cent; the same for a woman's suit. On a man's outfit, coat, trousers, shoes and hat, New England to Mississippi Valley, not to exceed 1 cent. The Ultimate Consumer can multiply these illustrations indefinitely. The manufacturer, jobber and retailer could easily absorb this slight advance, because, if his business increased but one unit, that would more than pay the increased cost on one hundred units. Railroad net earnings thus increased, the railroads would have a ready market for their securities, and with the money thus obtained again start all the business and industries now comparatively idle that are directly or indirectly dependent on their property. The working men would be fully employed, their families would again purchase freely, and that means good business for everyone. There are 1,500,000 railroad employees. It takes 2,500,000 men to supply what the railroads need, and a vast number of men are employed in supplying the personal needs of the above 4,000,000 men and their families, representing 16,000,000 people. Every kind of business is dependent in some measure on railroad prosperity. High cost of living: If it had not been for the encouragement given railroad investors in the past, where would we have been to-day for our food supply? They opened up thousands of miles of undeveloped and unproductive land and yet our food is high, because of lack of supply; our consumption is increasing faster than our food production. If the railroad investor stops as he now has, there will be an advance in food rates soon that will be far greater than increased freight rates. High food means high labor, and high labor means high everything. Therefore the Ultimate Consumer and the State and National Governments should be interested in developing land that will produce bountiful food products. Half of the country west of the Mississippi is not used, and will not be until covered with railroads. Who would want to build roads in unproductive lands when those in cultivated country will barely pay the lowest rate of interest, and the owners and managers are being harassed and maligned as in no other business? This condition will only improve when the business man realizes that the investor does not provide the source of his own investments. He waits for you to do that in some desirable form. By your individually letting things drift, and doing nothing, your legislator, with no business experience, hearing no advice and receiving no direct information, which he gladly would from you (quite likely you do not even know his name), listens to the only voices heard; the agitator or the aggressive shipper whose views of the business world are obtained by looking out of the small hole of a funnel directed at his own plant, unconscious of other conditions of far more importance to his own business than the freight rates. Such men as these by their vociferous vigor, have stirred up a popular anti-corporation agitation that has cowed all parties, and they are so scared of being charged as owned or bought that all questions of principle, equity or the general good are ignored. The railroad man draws his salary, whether the road pays or not; he does not own it. If he does say anything he is sat upon. The stock-holders as a body are defenseless. You are the sufferer and the only one who would be listened to. Will you not study your own interests, find out your legislator's name, and tell him the real situation? Otherwise we must wait until grim necessity starves out the present anti-railroad fever. June 6, 1910. Woman Builds Flying Machine. An Irish woman, Miss Lillian E.

A Boston professional man went out recently and on his return found this note from his stenographer, who had evidently been house cleaning: "If I'm not in by nine, it's because I am at the dentist', probably, but it may be that I'm at home, sick with all kinds of diseases that one catches from dirt germs. If that's the reason, you have no kick coming at all, because your old desk was a mess. You can be fixing up that pile of letters and we will answer them right off. Them's my orders." WESTERN ROADS REDUCE RATES THIS IS THE DICTUM OF THE INTERSTATE COMMERCE COMMISSION. ALL RATES AFFECTED ALL RATES AFFECTED INTERMOUNTAIN REGION SHIP PERS RELIEVED OF "BACK HAUL" EXACTIONS. Washington.—Decisions were handed down Wednesday by the Interstate Commerce Commission, countrywide in importance. They affect freight rates both class and commodity on all transcontinental lines operating between the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. Extensive reductions were ordered. The decisions are in what popularly are known as the Pacific Coast cases. The cases were heard last autumn by the commission on its six weeks' trip to the Pacific coast and intermountain territory and have been under consideration ever since. In every instance reductions in the rates complained of were made and in some instances they amounted to nearly fifty per cent. The commission found a remarkable rate situation existing on the Pacific coast and even a more remarkable one in the intermountain territory. This is notably true of the rates to and from Spokane, Wash., and Reno, Nev. The Spokane rate case had been before the commission, in one form or another, for several years. The shipers of that city complained insistently of the rates they were charged on freight classes and commodities, from eastern points of origin, because they were required to pay the Pacific coast terminal rates plus the local rates back to Spokane from those terminals although the freight was discharged at Spokane by the railroads on the western trip. Substantially the same state of affairs existed at Reno and other points, which had to pay the rates to San Francisco and the back-haul local rates from San Francisco or Sacramento to the point of ultimate destination. These local rates in most instances amounted to two-fifths or more of the entire rate from Eastern points of origin to Pacific coast terminals. As noted above, the decisions of the commission in these cases affect all class and commodity rates between eastern points and the far West. No complaint was made in any of the cases of the rates of the eastern lines between Atlantic points and Mississippi river transfers, and all of the reductions ordered by the commission affected the rates from Mississippi river and Missouri river transfer points to Pacific coast terminals and intermountain territorial points. Receive College Honors. Boston.—At Harvard Wednesday two Denver men received diplomas and the degree of bachelor of arts. They were Thomas Brooke Townsend, Jr., and Jesse Edwin Wald. Raynor M. Gardner of Colorado Springs received a similar honor. Colorado men figured also in the commencement exercises at Dartmouth and Amherst Colleges. At Dartmouth the Denver men awarded diplomas with the degree of bachelor of science were: James B. Badgley, Frederick C. Brooks, Ralph D. Vanzant and Robert V. Johnson. At Amherst B. H. Hall of Colorado Springs received the degree of bachelor of arts. Pinchot Coming to Denver. Denver.—Gifford Pinchot, former head of the United States forestry service and friend of former President Roosevelt, will be in Denver about July 15th, according to a letter received by a personal friend of his in Denver Wednesday. The missive did not state Mr. Pinchot's mission to the West, but it is inferred that he will be on his way to the Pacific coast. To Forward Reclamation. Washington. —Secretary Ballinger is arranging to make personal visits as soon as practicable to the various government reclamation projects which may be completed from the $20,000,000 fund to be raised through the issuance of certificates of indebtedness. Burlington to Increase Wages. Chicago.—The Burlington road will increase the wages of its unorganized employees between 6 and 10 per cent. very soon. Taft and Teddy in Conference. Beverly, Mass.—President Taft and Theodore Roosevelt met at the Taft cottage on Burgess Point Thursday afternoon. Neither the president nor the colonel have been communicative as to their plans for a conference, and there is no official information to this effect. Urge Ratification of Loan. Washington.—The ratification by China of the $30,000,000 Hankow rail road loan is sought by the state department. THIRD OPERATION PREVENTED By Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound Chicago. Ill. — "I want to tell you what Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound did for me. I was so sick that two of the best doctors in Chicago said I would die if I did not have an operation. I had already had two operations, and they wanted me to go through a third one. I suffered day and night from inflammation and a small tumor, and never thought of seeing a well day again. A friend told me how Lyda E. Pinkham's Veg- already had two operations, and they wanted me to go through a third one. I suffered day and night from inflammation and a small tumor, and never thought of seeing a well day again. A friend told me how Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound had helped her, and I tried it, and after the third bottle was cured."—Mrs. ALVENA SPERLING, 1468 Clybourne Ave., Chicago, Ill. If you are ill do not drag along at home or in your place of employment until an operation is necessary, but build up the feminine system, and remove the cause of those distressing aches and pains by taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, made from roots and herbs. For thirty years it has been the standard remedy for female ills, and has positively restored the health of thousands of women who have been troubled with displacements, inflammation, ulceration, fibroid tumors, irregularities, periodic pains, backache, bearing-down feeling, fatulency, indigestion, dizziness, or nervous prostration.

It all depends upon the weather how much of this party may be car- ried out in the open. It is all practical or the house though, should showers spill from a bright blue sky. First, tell the children they are to go out after game and give each one a little denim hunting bag for the protiles, which are animal crackers hidden in every conceivable place, the crackers to be eaten or taken home, and to the one who bags the most animals a prize of a toy animal may be given. Then give each guest a card with numbers from 1 to 15 on and place a blackboard where all can see it. The leader or the hostess selects a child to draw a picture, whispering to him the animal he is to draw; the guests write beside the number the name of the animal they think he is trying to portray. When 15 animals have been drawn and guessed collect the cards, and to the one who has correctly guessed the most a Noah's ark is given. act the cards, has correctly Oysters. Omelet. Smoked Herring.

Then the hostess to make things interesting may serve salad on tin pie plates, have bonbons or salted nuts in individual fluted patty pans and pass Saratoga chips in an enamel kettle with a skimmer to lift the wiggly chips out. Use jelly tumblers for water or grape juice, and the meat course should be brought in in a new roasting pan. The dessert, preferably some frozen sweet, may appear in small earthenware bowls or individual ramekins. Can't you see just what a jolly time this will be. All extra parcels should be delivered to the bride elect during the repast. I think a party like this should be at night so as to include the much-neglected bridegroom and his friends. The decorations were entirely Holland's national colors—blue and red—with yellow flowers, if procurable. Only bulb blossoms should be used, as Holland is famous for them.

A Dutch Card Party. was the table centerpiece, with smaller ones filled with bonbons at each plate. The hostess had been in Holland, so had genuine Dutch postals, which she used as place cards. The prizes were all bits of Delft. For the supper, which was served at 11 o'clock, there was a strictly Dutch menu—not German. I am very glad to give it for the benefit of the many readers who have requested such things, and I have never been exactly sure, as people whom I have asked have differed in opinlon. These dishes come to me as being essentially "Dutch." Each hostess may select from the outfit what suits her need and not try to serve the entire menu unless she wishes. Of course oysters are out of season until September. Oh, yes; the cards used had backs representing Holland scenes. Honey Cakes. Oval Cinnamon Cakes Pancake Cakes. Quarter, quarter, Coffee and Chocolate. The Chief Attraction. Clothing ceases to be attractive when it becomes mussed and dusty. Veils are not wearable after the rent appears. Gloves should be discarded when they cannot be cleansed and neatly mended. Shoes do not have to come to tatters before being honestly discharged from duty. As for hats, every woman knows that her head covering makes or mars her good looks. Every housekeeper knows that a neat home is appealing and an untidy one repelling. We know these things even when we disregard them. Blue Most Popular Color. Blue is very prominent among the foulards, as it is everywhere throughout fashion's realm. Never has there been such a season of blue, and the list of modish blues is long, though, for that matter there seems to be no shade of blue which is not worn. Navy and kindred shades are much worn for tailored costumes of the more severe sort, but the blues most peculiarly of this season are the brilliant glowing shades, such as bleriot, radium, king's blue, flag blue, etc. Useless. It is no use to put cosmetics on the face and indigestible food into the stomach; no use to pin one's faith in eye-drops and to deprive the brain of intellectual food; no use to attend physical culture classes and to wear tight stays and shoes afterward; no use to try anti-obesity cures (many of them dangerous) and saunter around shop windows or the park in place of taking real exercise; need less often the hundred and one electro massage treatments when the same effects could be produced by the more rational stimulus. The sleeves are tucked at the bottom and finished with bands of the embroidery. The belt is of the pique stitched at the edges. The plain pique trousers just show below the tunic. White pique seems to be a favorite fabric for children's frocks this season, and it is used for the dainty little girl's dress. The high waisted skirt is plaited. The blouse has a deep yoke of fine tucked muslin and real Iris lace. The lower parts of the sleeves are of the same tucked muslin and lace. The belt is of the pique braided at the edges.
