PATRONIZE MERCHANTS WHO ADVERTISE IN THIS PAPER THE COLORADO STATESMAN THE JOURNAL OF THE WEST. LABOR SHALL BE FREE RAGE COUNTRY PARTY BISHOP HOOD FOR TAFT VOL. XIX. Rt. Rev J. W. Hood, Senior Bishop of the A. M. E. Zion Church, has given out a statement stating the reason why the Afro-American people ought to support President Taft. Among other things Bishop Hood said: First, Mr. Taft is the legally and regularly nominated candidate of the Republican organization. In my opinion as fairly and honestly nominated as any other candidate the party has ever had. He stands squarely on the Republican platform. Including the gold standard. Gold is the world's currency and does not need the stamp of any government to increase its value. The Republican party stands for equal and political rights regardless of race or color. It stands for the constitution of the United States, including the first, the eleventh and fifteenth articles. Each article having validity. The Republican party stands for a sufficient amount of tariff protection to secure to our industries, and the wage worker a fair return for the labor spent. Mr. Taft has shown a special interest in the fifteenth article of the constitution (not I presume) because he regards it as more important than other articles, but because it is a special object attack by the enemies of the constitution. As a wise general he is careful to watch the efforts of the enemy, and guard the point of attack. No other President has shown the interest that he has in that particular article. It has been nullified in several States, by disfranchising amendments to State constitutions. But, if memory serves me right, no other President has a finger to prevent the disfranchisement. Twice during President Taft's administration he has been successful in the effort to defeat the disfranchisement in the State of Maryland. In this effort he had three powerful forces with him. Namely: Candinal Gibbon, the Republican organization and the Independent Democorats. These forces were marshalled by the Executive of the Nation, and marshalled to a glorious success. The fifteenth article of the constitution is the sheet anchor of the black man's rights in this country. While it stands the waves of race hate lash themselves to furry in vain. There is no other way in which the President can better deserve the commendation of the Negro race than by the maintenance of this sheet anchor. There is much more in this, than in the appointment of a few men to office. This conserves the highest and best interest of the entire race. In my own opinion no President since Lincoln has done more for the real benefit of the race than President Taft. The Republican party is the only party which stands squarely on the declaration of Indendence. It affords to every man, regardless of race or color, an equal chance to work out his salvation. The enjoyment of life liberty and the pursuit of happiness. I wish therefore to say to my race that I see no reason why we should not give to President Taft our earnest support. He is certainly the best in sight from our view. And I see no reason why he should not have the support of all the genuine safe and sane people in this land, who want to make progress in a becoming way. My opinion is that before the election comes, those who are too much intoxicated now, will sober down and think before casting their votes. J. W. Hood, Senior Bishop of the A. M. Zion Church. Fayetteville, N. C., October 1, 1912. SEGREGATION LAW ATTACKED BY COURT SEGREGATION LAW ATTACKED BY COURT Baltimore, Md., Oct. 16.—The validity of Baltimore's segregation law confining Negro citizens to certain streets was argued on a demurrer before Judge Thomas Ireland Elliott in the Criminal Court last week. Assistant State's Attorney Horton S. Smith made the argument upholding the constitutionality of the law. His line of argument evidently did not strike the fancy of Judge Elliott, who injected a number of comments. Attorney Harry Heckheimer argued against the law, and W. Ashline Hawkins, who has been retained in all cases arising out of violations of the obnoxious law, prepared a lengthy brief citing authorities to show that the City Council exceeded its authority in passing the law and that it was plainly class legislation. Judge Elliott, in announcing that he would render a decision later, said it appeared to him that if the City Council had a right to make the races live particular sections that it would also be possible to pass a law restricting colored people to State Hist & Nat Hist Societg State House HANTS WH ADC THE JOURNAL DENVER, COLORADO certain farms in the countries. "There are several questions to be considered by the court," said Judge Elliott. "One is as to whether or not the legislature would have the right to discriminate between classes of citizens on the ground of diverse color. The Constitution of the United States provides that no person shall suffer discrimination because of race, color or previous condition of servitude. When it comes to discrimination based upon acts, whether or not the person is law-breaking or law-abiding, or because of his vocation, there cannot be a doubt of the rights of the legislature. I have always been of the opinion that the right of one citizen is the right of every citizen. "One of the inherent rights of human kind, long before the Constitution of the United States was heard of, was the right to hold property. Granting for the sake or argument, that the legislature has the right to makelaws as to the holding of property in certain localities, there is still the question as to whether the City Council has the right to pass an ordinance under which the citizen, entitled to own property under the state law, is fonbidden under the city's ordinance to occupy it or to sell it to anybody at all. If the ordinance is valid, it appears to preclude the existence of property rights which seem to be fundamental. "The court does not interest itself in trying to ascertain the individual opinions of the men who pass a law, but the court is concerned with the object of the law. The title of the ordinance under consideration states that the object is to preserve peace and to avoid ill feeling. If it accomplishes the latter purpose it will be doing something which no humane agency since the foundation of the world has been able to accomplish, and probably will not accomplish until the end of the world. Frequently what is the cause of ill feeling to day is not the cause of ill feeling to-morrow. On the spur of the moment, however, I cannot call to mind anything that would be more calculated to cause ill feeling than this ordinance. Suppose that a colored man should move into a block inhabited by white persons. Probably every white person in the block would be before the Grand Jury to have him prosecuted. Surely that would be creating ill-feeling. As to praseerving the peace, the Police Department is organized to do that. If the idea of this ordinance is carried out to its logical consequences it might be made to apply to the counties. Certain farms might be inhabited only by white persons, and another farm adjacent thereto only by colled persons." --- Judge Elliott, before whom the demurrier was argued, is a Republican, and is regarded as one of the fairest judges in the city. JUDGE GEO. W ALLEN Republican Candidate For District Judge Judge Allen, has been a resident of Denver for a quarter of a century; he has watched Denver grow and has done much to make it grow. He is a man of wide experience, broad in his views, and learned in the law. He has served the people well and faithfully for eighteen years as one of the District Judges, until he is now familiarly called the "Father of the Court." He has never jeopardized the integrity of the Judiciary, he stands, for the weak as against the strong, and is in full accord JUDGE GEORGE W. ALLEN with the policies, that are for the welfare of the whole people. He believes that the punishment of offenders against the law, should be consistent with justice, law, reason and humanity; many a young man and boy guilty of their first offense against the law, have had the fatherly advice and help of Judge Allen, to retrieve themselves and to start life new again. It is a pleasure to recommend the candidacy of Judge Allen, to the colored voters, he has proved that he is their friend; he has no prejudices on account of race, or color. He is a mild mannered man, easy of approach, one who is in love with his fellow men; and will if re-elected, continue to dispense justice to all persons who may have business in his court. The COLORADO STATESMAN urges the colored voters not to fail to vote for Judge George W. Allen, for District Judge on the 5th of November. Very Mysterious. An old colored woman had occasion to call the doctor for her husband, who was very ill. The doctor made a diagnosis and pronounced it a severe case of gastritis. "Oh, Lor," doctor," ejaculated the old woman, "how did he eber get dat gastritis? I hain't burnt a ting but coal lie in dis yere house, an' powerful little ob dat."—Harper's Bazar for September. RACE NEWS GATHERED FROM VARIOUS SOURCES Pueblo, Colo., Oct. 20.—Twenty-eight children, all inmates of the Colored orphanage, were driven from their beds early this morning by a fire which started on the roof of the building. The coolness of Mrs. Clara Hargroves, matron, prevented what threatened a stampede. She gathered the children together, assured them that there was no immediate danger and marched them two by two out of the front door. "On the regular pay roll of the executive mansion there are twenty colored employees, whose annual salaries aggregate $11,562. One colored employee in the White House garage receives a salary of $780 per annum. A number of colored men and women are employed for duty at functions during the social season, and their pay in the aggregate amounts to more than $1,000. The total amount paid to Afro-Americans at the White House is nearly $20,-000 per annum." The New England Suffrage League held its annual convention last week with fifty delegates representing the six states. They denounced President Taft and advocated Governor Wilson. Don't wake them, but tell every common sense colored voter that Governor Wilson forfeited his right to the colored man's suffrage when he closed the door in his face at Princetown college. The League is also a higher education advocate. What inconsistency.—Boston Reliance. Komoko, Ind., Oct. 15.—Miss Bella Ritchel, who was forced to ride in a "Jim Crow" car and finally set off a train while riding through Kentucky a little more than a year ago, has received word from her attorneys at Frankford, Ky., the courts of appeals has awarded her $3,750 damages. Miss Ritchel, who is a Jewess, has a dark complexion and was unable to make the members of the train crew believe she was entitled to ride with white persons. A new feature in the musical development of United States Army musicians is the offer of the director of a New York musical institute to train yearly five musicians chosen by competition from the various army bands. The War Department has accepted the offer and the first year's scholarships have been awarded The first name on the list was that of J. Thomas, chief musician of the Tenth Cavalry, one of the crack colored regiments of the army. Mr. Thomas, with the other musicians, enters at once upon this course of study. John H. Cebolt, 832 Camp street, Indianapolis, through his attorney here, Wm. L. Houston, has been granted a patent by the Patent Office on a non-puncturable tire for automobiles. His patent tire can be punctured with a six or eight penny nail without necessitating stopping for repairs. It is so constructed that no matter how badly the outside rim is punctured the inside tire remains in tact. The invention will be a boon to automobile owners, and ought to prove a fortune for the inventor. Atlanta, Ga., Oct. I4.—Judge A. W. Fite, of the Cherokee circuit, has been found guilty of writing a newspaper article in contempt of the State court of appeals. He was sentenced to pay $500 within ten days. In the event of his failure to do so he must serve ten days in jail. The article in question was a criticism of the court of appeals for twice reversing his decision sentencing a colored man to twenty years for attempted assault on a white woman. Judge Fite appeared in person for the hearing. His counsel, Col. T. C. Milner, of Cartersville, Ga., after pleading his case, dropped dead in a downtown office building. Washington, D. C., Oct. 15. Fred M. Johnson, Negro globe trotter, who fought at San Juan Hill, has invented a belt feed rifle that, it is asserted, will fire three hundred shots without stopping at the rate of twenty shots a second. Johnson says he has received word from the War Department that his rifle is considered one of the wonders of the age, and that it soon will receive a trial. The Johnson gun is used much like an ordinary rifle being about the same weight and length, but instead of the regular stock, the rifle is equipped with a brace which fastens to both shoulders, bringing the barrel to a level with the eye. A small crank fitted to the side of the barrel operates the belt so the cartridges are carried to the chamber, discharged and the shells ejected simply by turning the crank. Johnson is now a resident of Cleveland, Ohio. THE WORLD IN PARAGRAPHS 4 BRIEF RECORD OF PASSING EVENTS IN THIS AND FOR- EIGN COUNTRIES.

The large guard was ordered by Chief of Police McWeeny, as a result of the attempt to assassinate Colonel Roosevelt.

DECREASE IN STATE TAX LEVY. Board of Equalization Makes It 41-18 Mills; Was 41-10 Mills Last Year Denver.—A slight decrease in the state tax levy for the coming year over last year's figures has been made by the board of equalization. The levy was fixed at 4 1-18 mills at a meeting of the board. Last year it was 4 1-10 mills. This decrease was caused by reductions in the levies for interest on insurrection bonds and for general revenue, which more than offset the levy made for the first time for a sinking fund for registered bonds of the series of 1897. The total estimated revenue from the levy will be $1,618,160, which is almost the same as it was last year. The estimated total valuation of the state for 1912 is $420,000,000. The state tax commission was sustained in all its decisions on protested corporation assessments.

In its national features it has) been comparatively calm, and quiet. Not so much beating of drums | and flaring of trumpets as usual, but a strong, deep current of intense | loyalty to the Republican candidate for president and vice-president seem to move the Republican rank and file as never before. The name of William Howard Taft is one to conjure with. It fires the imagination and inspires hope, But the masses have so long settled down in their resolution to return him to the white house, as a mater of course, that they are making very little fuss about it. It verifies the old adage that still water runs deep. No class of citizens in the entire country are as unanimous in their wish to see Mr. Taft direct- ing the adiinistration another term of four years, none have labored so faithfully and zealously for this result. No candidate for president has ever won in equal degree the admiration and love which throb in every colored person’s heart as the name of Mr. Taft. Never before has there been such universal expression of high opinion of a presi- dential candidate as that which is so freely uttered by pen and voice by the leading colored men and women of the vountry. Such a phe- nomenon is not an accident. It is the sequence of a deep instinet. The race keenly feels that it is passing through a dark crisis. The tide of intolerance, jim-crowism, lynching, burning and general hatred of the Negro is rising higher and continually spreading. The four- teenth and fifteenth amendments to the constitution, the charter of our rights us citizens, are defiantly assailed. It is no wonder therefore that the race turns its eyes with yearning hope on the one man who has at ali times, in and out of office, declared in unequivocal language for equality of civil and political rights to all citizens regardless of race, color or condition. Even colored men who have for years affil- iated with the Democrat party and been rewarded by that organization have returned to the Republican party this year and are ardently working for the success of Mr, Taft. In the state of Colorado it is pleasing to know as we do that our people are more enthusiastic and united on the whole Republican ticket than in any election for many years. Practically the same issues are involved as presented themselves in that memorable year of Republican success, and we have not the slightest doubt that the voters will return a like verdict. : THE REPUBLICAN TICKET For United States Senator, Long Term, CLYDE C.

Take two cupfuls of sugar, one large breakfast cupful of milk, one rov:. ing tablespoonful of butter, a quarter of a teaspoonful of cream of terte vanilla or any other flavor, three ounces of plain or glace fruite, or both mixed, or 1% or two ounces of dix solved sweetened chocolate. Put sugar, cream of tartar, milx and but- ter in pan and dissolve, stirring care fully all the time with thermometer. Boil to 230 degrees Fahrenheit, then remove pan to table and cool for five minutes. Then add the chopped nuts and glace fruit and flavor to taste. Then stir in the fondant worked with finger tips to a thin, pliable sheet, When thoroughly mixed and beginning to grain, pour into buttered tin or into a wax paper on @ board. Make batch half an inch thick, When set cut in bars or squares and wrap in wax paper. For chocolate fudge, instead of the fruits, stir in from one to two ounces, accord- ing to your taste, of unsweetened chocolate which you have dissolved in a small pan over a gentle heat. To make an excellent dressing for linoleum, take equal parts of linseed oll and cider vinegar and mix them thoroughly tégether. Ices and ice cream will freeze more quickly if a dipper of water is poured over the ice and salt just before the turning process begins. To turn a cake easily out of a tin set the tin on a wet cloth for a few seconds immediately after removing {t from the oven and then turn it out A porcelain sink can be quickly cleaned with paraffin. Dip a flannel lightly into the paraffin and rub the sink till all stains are remo\ ‘4, ther thoroughly wash it with soda water If vegetables are cooked in a stear er over hot water, and sprinkled wit salt when nearly done, then served a very hot tureen, they will be fou better, and are said to be far mor nutritious than when boiled in t ordinary way To whiten ivory, rub {t well with unsalted butter and place it in th unshine. If {t is discolored {t mo be whitened by rubbing it with paste composed of burned pumic ‘stone and water and putting It in the sun under glass. ‘German Pancakes. One heaping cup of flour, one-ha!! teaspoonful of salt, two cups of mi!) or water, three eggs, Sift flour anc salt Into a bowl, add milk or water and mix {t to a smooth batter, then add the beaten egg yolks. Beat thy white stiff and add gradually to tug batter, stirring constantly. Place 4 medium-sized frying pan over the fire with half a tablespoonful of butter or lard; as soon as hot pour in suffi cient of the mixture to cover the bot tom of the pan, shake the pan to anc fro and bake until a light brown or one‘side: turn over and bake the other. Slip the pancake onto a hot plate and bake the remaining batter the same way. Serve at once. This quantity makes four pancakes. Veunn Onlonsah thst. Clean the onions, then tie In bunches and cook in boiling water slightly salted until tender; drain off the water, cut the strings and place six onions on pieces of toasted bread. Trim the green tops neatly. After the toast 1s placed on the platter pour over just sufficient hot water to slight- ly motsten. Dissolve a teaspoonful of beef extract in one cupful of hot water, then add it gradually to one tablespoonful of butter melted and mixed with one tablespoonful of flour, as is done for a cream sauce; stir un- til creamy, adding more hot water if too thick. Some flours thicken more than others. Season with salt and pepper and pour over the onions. The Grits Bail. No, you don’t dance it. Neither do you throw it, Rather it is designed to eat. The shell {s made pf aluminum. The round perforations admit the steam. One cup of grits or rice is held ip it The grits ball opens on a hinge just as does a tea ball. It is handier and looks nicer than an ordinary bag, Potted Chicken. A chicken is cut up as for fricassee and to each pound of meat allow two tublespoonfuls of flour, one-half tea spoonful of salt (very scant) and a dust of pepper. Mix thoroughly and roll each piece of the meat in the mixture. Pack closely in a large bean pot and cover with boiling wa- ter; bake for three hours and a halt.

Spratlin by the Progressive Republicans. honored, respected and trusted politically by every member of the city, who recognized his true work a faithful employé. One strikingure noticed at the funeral was the tendance of Mrs. Berger and her tire family, where the deceased ed for so many years, and the Mrs. W. E. King of Colorado Springs spent last week attending the carnival. She was the guest of Mrs. J. A. Andrews, 921 Newton street. A large and enthusiastic crowd attended the meeting last Wednesday night at the Campbell A. M. E. church given by the Progressive clubs of District C. A. L. Ford, a staunch supporter of the Colorado Statesman, and one of Fort Collins' most worthy citizens, spent the past week in the city taking in the sights. Miss Romain Gay, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. D. T. Gay, of this city, was married last Wednesday to Mr. R. Pierce of Los Angeles, Cal., where they are now living. Quite a large number of Colardo Springs citizens came up to the festival of mountain and plain last week and remained until this week. They enjoyed to the fullest the many amusements provided for their delectation. A fine baby girl arrived at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Gaskins, 1904 Marion street, last Saturday morning. Mr. Gaskins, who is a clerk in the postoffice, is all smiles and says that the next addition must be a boy. Cigars are now in order. Just say, sister. Mrs. Parker and mother, Mrs. Fletcher, who have been the guests of Mrs. Wm.

Costa, a Portuguese, was on trial in the west side criminal court Tuesday for "confidence game" and forgery. Costa drew three checks on the City Bank and Trust company for $65 $850 and one for $6,400. He had no money in the bank, and when he passed the $65 check he was arrested, and the other checks on the same bank were found on him. The court appointed Lawyer Townsend to defend Costa, and right well did he do it, for after a day's legal battle, Townsend pursuaded the jury to say that Costa is not guilty, and he was discharged. DEATH OF CHURCHILL DE NEALE After an illness of only two weeks, Churchill DeNeale, one of our most highly respected and industrious citizens, passed into the Great Beyond last Friday night, October 18th. Mr. DeNeale was born in Loudin county, Virginia, April 8, 1852, and came to this city in the fall of 1881. He was married to Miss Ella L. Butler of Washington, D. C., March 19, 1885. Shortly after locating in Denver, he entered the employ of W. B. Berger, one of Denver's wealthy families, where he remained twenty-nine years, --- honored, respected and trusted implicitly by every member of the family, who recognized his true worth as a faithful employé. One striking feature noticed at the funeral was the attendance of Mrs. Berger and her entire family, where the deceased worked for so many years, and the lovely flowers they sent mingling with, and showing their sorrow at the bier of a fellow-being. The sight was indeed touching in the extreme, as it betokened so vividly the thought that the Lord made of all one blood, that in death all men are equal. The funeral services were held at the family residence, 1154 Broadway, Monday afternoon in the presence of a large number of friends. The remarks by Rev. John Houghton of St. Mark's Episcopal church and Rev. D. E. Over of Zion Baptist church were very touching. The deceased is survived by a widow, three daughters, two cousins, James and Scott, DeNeale, a sister in Washington, D. C., and a large number of friends in Denver. Interment was at Riverside. CARD OF THANKS. Mrs. C. T. DeNeale and daughters desire to thank their many friends for kindnesss shown in their recent bereavement, also for the beautiful floral offerings. SORTER CHAPEL.

At the evening hour the pastor delivered the first of a series of sermons on the Commandments, when he was greatly encouraged over the number that dared come, even through the rain storm. The series will be continued next Sunday evening. Among the out of town visitors who worshipped at Shorter last Sabathb were Mrs. Hattie Carthone of Los Angeles, Cal., and Mr. and Mrs. H. G. Weston of Henderson, Ky. A Bible class numbering twenty-one was organized in the S. S. room last Thursday evening with Mrs. M. E. Wade president, Miss VonDickerson secretary and Mrs. Fanny Brown treasurer. Rev. and Mrs. Pope were chosen instructors. The Sewing Circle held an interesting meeting at the home of Mrs. R. N. Nelson, 646 S. High street, Thursday afternoon of last week. With such an inspiring personality, as Mrs. Mason at its head, the Circle can but prosper.

Washington.—That the forest cover of mountains and hills has an appreciable and measurable effect on navigation streams and that the removal of the forest growth from the lands tends to produce floods is the conclusion reached by the United States Geological Survey announced as the result of a series of scientific experiments in the White mountains of New England. The report carries with it the statement of the survey that the removal of the forests tends to produce floods. The investigations are believed to solve a problem long a source of strenuous contention among scientists. While the investigations have direct reference to the White mountain area only, they establish a principle of far wider application and indicate that there may be a scientific method of preventing floods generally. In conducting its experiments, the Geological Survey selected two small, almost exactly similar drainage basins of about five square miles each on the east branch of Pemigewassett river, one largely clothed with virgin timber and the other deforested and burned. Careful measurements of precipitation over the areas and of the run-off of the respective streams show that not only was the snow held better in the forested area, but that during a period of 17 days in April, including three extended storms, the run-off of the stream in the deforested area was a comparative flood, practically double that of the stream flowing through the forested area. On both streams hydrographic stations were established and the stream flow determined with a high degree of accuracy. The survey report shows that the maximum flood flow from the forested basin was only 67 per cent of that from the deforested basin The Survey says: "The stream of the forested basin is observed to be the steadier of the two and in proportion to its drainage area it tends—at least during the spring months—to promote a steady flow of water in the master stream of which it is a tributary. "Such an actual demonstration and quantitative measure of the performance of different areas, some forested and others deforested, has never been attempted in trying to determine the effect of forest cover on stream flows. Efforts to arrive at definite conclusions have always been based on a study of long-time records of precipitation and stream discharge; but owing to the many qualifying factors such efforts have simply resulted in divergent opinions and inconclusive controversies. "The results of the present actual measurements in these mimic drainage basins, so accurate and refined in method as to approach laboratory experiments, where exact results may be expected, leave no doubt as to the conclusion. Forest cover and the resulting forest mat in the White mountain granite area does to a considerable and measurable degree steady and regulate stream flow, and therefore must be stated as an important factor in maintaining the navigability of streams whose headwaters lie in such areas." MORE TEACHERS NEEDED The national welfare depends on agricultural prosperity; agriculture itself is daily becoming more and more of a science; and these two factors reinforce the pressing demand for more and better agricultural education among the rural population. But where are the teachers of agriculture coming from? This question is raised by A. C. Monahan, specialist in rural education of the United States bureau of education. "At present nearly two thousand high schools are teaching agriculture, the course being taken by an aggregate of some 37,000 pupils," says Mr. Monahan. "But in all these schools, only a very few besides those giving four-year courses in this subject have instructors with a college or normal school training in scientific agriculture, while a large percentage of the active teachers with this training have had no training in psychology or pedagogy. "Probably no one factor has had greater influence in retarding the introduction of substantial courses in agriculture in all those higher schools whose pupils are drawn in large numbers from farming districts than the shortage of properly qualified teachers." Report of Daylight Meteor Reports from Greytown, Weenen and Curry's Post, Natal, describe a curious phenomenon in the form of a daylight meteor which burst with a loud explosion audible at places thirty or forty miles apart. The meteor, which took the form of a ball of fire with a faming stream of sparks behind, was seen about two o'clock in the afternoon, a few days ago. The sun was shining brightly at the time. The meteor appeared to have fallen close to Weenen, but no trace of it could be found when a search was made of the locality. GOLD IN VALDEZ. Thousands of gold seekers who joined in the mad rush to the Klondike hurr'ed over ground containing that very treasure which they expected to find at the end of their journey. Many of these gold seekers, indeed, must have passed in sight of the quartz vein near the Valdez glacier which 12 years later was developed into what is now known as the Cliff mine. This vein has averaged about $50 a ton, mostly in free gold, with little change in depth, the concentrates running about 7 per cent and carrying about $100 worth of gold to the ton, according to a report of the United States geological survey. This is probably a fair measure of the gold content of the ores of the district, though many property owners report contents ranging from $75 to $200, or even higher. The Cliff mine became productive in 1910 and proved to be very profitable. Its success greatly stimulated prospecting by local miners and also attracted the attention of nonresidents, who quickly recognized the possibility of developing here a new mining district. As a result, several hundred lode claims were staked and considerable development work was undertaken in 1910 and 1911. At this time Alfred H. Brooks, geologist in charge of the Alaskan work of the United States geological survey, visited the region and made an examination of its possibilities, and his report, just issued by the survey, shows that the most encouraging feature of the district is the fact that one lode has been profitably mined to a depth of about 400 feet and for about 500 feet along the strike. So far as can be seen, he states, there are no geologic conditions at the Cliff mine which are not found elsewhere in the region. CAGE MASTS' VALUE PROVED Far from pronouncing the doom of the cage mast of the American battleships, the recent firing tests in Chesapeake Bay are regarded by naval officers as demonstrating most concinently the efficiency of the cage mast Sixteen 12-inch explosive shells were fired at the experimental cage mast erected on the hulk of the San Marcos, formerly the battleship Texas, which lies on the shoals of Tangler Sound, Chesapeake Bay. Of these thirteen were fair and square hits, and the last hit toppled the mast into the water, while this heavy fire, concentrated upon the mast at close range, resulted after thirteen hits in the destruction of the mast. Naval officers assert that in the first place the masts of a ship in action would never under any imaginable circumstances, be subjected to such a fire. In the second place, it is declared, two or three well-directed shots at one of the old-time cylindrical masts would be sufficient to bring it down. Therefore the recent tests prove conclusively that the cage mast can withstand at least six or seven times the firing that the old mast can endure. The cage mast originated with the American navy, though other navies are beginning to adopt it. SIZE OF PATTERNS INCREASE. A Washington department store manager has estimated that the increase in the size of patterns for stockings for American girls this season will add $300,000 to the hosiery manufacturers' coffers. Mrs. A. A. Bierney, president of the local organization of the Mothers' congress, says that the additional expense is for the good of the race. Mrs. Birney agreed with the Russian Countess Cazarine to the effect that Washington girls are too slender, but adds that they are improving. The feet of the Washington girl are getting bigger, she said today. "Bigger feet and stronger, hardier muscles are at last coming to our girls," she declared. "Such strong, athletic girls speak well for the future of the race. New York is making the same sort of progress. I wish other parts of the country were blessed with such girls as Washington and New York has." PROVED TO BE TRUE? The story that comes from the south that there are people there that do not know the war is over has been proved, to be true—proved by the treasury department. A Louisville, Ky., woman sent in a dollar bill the other day with the following letter: "I have had this bill for some time, but I have neglected to have it redeemed. In the meantime, however, I have acquired two little girls, and a dollar looks much bigger than it used to look. As its buying power seems to be steadily decreasing, I send it in while it is still worth 30 cents." The treasury department immediately forwarded to her a perfectly good brand-new dollar bill, and informed her that it would get her exactly 100 cents' worth of goods anywhere she wanted to present it. That sounds fishy, but it is the honest truth. One Thing Certain An amusing story is related of Lady Roberts, who was once visiting the hospitals at the base of military operations in India. So pleased was she with the untiring labor of the nurses and their devotion to the sick that she said to the officer in attendance, "I really think that the sisters deserve a medal for this campaign as much as anyone, and I hope they will get one." "Well, I don't know about a medal," said a gallant colonel standing by. "but they are sure at all events to got plenty of clasps." N. E. CHAPMAN. AN ADVOCATE OF FRESH EGGS N. E. Chapman, Advocate of Fresh Eggs—No Hen ever laid a bad egg. Nothing is more pure and innocent than a new-laid egg. But if ten days elapse before the farmer collects that egg and takes it to the local storekeeper, and if the storekeeper holds it a week or so before shipping, and if the egg tarries another week or more on hot rail- PETER H. BURKE way platforms and cars in leisurely transit before it reaches the city commission man who sells it to the corner grocer, is it really the grocer's fault if that egg doesn't appeal to the Ultimate Consumer as being quite as "Strictly Fresh Laid" as the placard proclaimed it to be? The annual egg production of the United States is estimated to be worth four hundred million dollars, and of that total two eggs in every dozen, worth over sixty-six million dollars in all, go into the garbage can as unspeakable. Is it any wonder that the United States government is co-operating with the farmers to save those two expensive eggs? The most elaborate campaign for the conservation of the egg is that conducted in the state of Minnesota by Mr. N. E. Chapman of the extension staff of the agricultural college of the State University. His mission is to encourage the egg to get to market while it is fresh. He preaches the doctrine of fresh eggs to railroads, dealers, teachers, farmers, and country children. He traces each bad egg to the source of its badness, and delivers an earnest lecture to the responsible party. Mr. Chapman glorifies the hen. He tells her story on an average of four times a day the year round. His best audiences are the children to whom the rosy gentleman in gold-bowed spectacles is known as "Uncle Norton." Last fall he ran a poultry class three days and nights in a country school.—Woman's Home Companion. KING CHRISTIAN TURNS BICYCLE REPAIRER If Christian X. should lose his crown as King of Denmark, he could make a good living with a bicycle repair shop, and he has the promise of at least one customer. PETER HENRY While driving with his sons recently, the king ran down a cyclist with his carriage. Although the accident was due entirely to the carelessness of the bicycle rider, the king stopped the carriage and went to the assistance of the young man, whose machine was smashed. His majesty, who is very fond of cycling and who repairs his own machine, saw that he could put the broken bicycle in running order again. The young man seemed helpless, and stood looking on, with his hands in his pockets while the king worked for ten minutes repairing the damaged machine. When the king had finished the work the rider asked him for his card, promising to patronize him whenever his machine needed repairs. As the rider stood with wide open mouth looking at the king's name engraved on the card, the royal party drove away. Long Ears a Bad Sign Twelve hundred teachers attending the session of the Cincinnati Teachers' institute sat as if glued to their seats while they listened to a lecture by Dr. Arthur Holmes, psychologist at the University of Pennsylvania and expert in mental diseases, who declared that long, flaring ears were one of the indications of mental deficiency and that a great many teachers were mentally defective, the Cincinnati correspondent of the New York Times writes. Dr. Holmes said that many men and women whom the world holds normal were really deficient. Persons with aquiline noses were rarely deficient, he asserted. Persons with long, slender hands of a smooth texture were most apt to lack energy and to be deficient mentally he added. "Society men and women, as they climb higher and higher in the social scale, get nearer and nearer to the plane of the idiot," said Dr. Holmes. "Take away their money and some of them could not even dress themselves." Thoughtful Wife. Weary of life, a farmer went out to his barn and hanged himself. A little later his wife, entering the barn to feed some animals, saw her husband swinging from the rafters. Arguing that if, as it was natural to think, her husband intended to commit suicide, he would be exasperated by the frustration of his intention, she left the body as it was and went on with the work of the farm. Several hours later in the evening, when her daughter came back from the fields, the woman told her what had happened. Mother and daughter deliberated for some time as to what ought to be done, and finally decided to inform the mayor. When that official came in haste and cut down the body life had been extinct for several hours.—London Telegraph. Along the boulevards and in fashionable circles in Paris it is reported wards and in fashion it is reported that the Duke and Duchess of Morry have come to the parting of the ways. This report was spread when it was learned that the separation of the property of the Duke and Duchess had been ordered. In France this is the first step toward a legal severance of the marriage Duchess of Morpy have come to the parting of the ways. This report was spread when it was learned that the separation of the property of the Duke and Duchess had been ordered. In France this is the first step toward a legal severance of the marriage. The beautiful Duchess, who is one of the few ladies licensed to wear male attire by the French government, and who at various times has startled even Paris by parading in public in male attire, cigar and all, has figured with extreme prominence in the news of recent months. The Duchess, who at the amateur theatricals and receptions she has given has been pointed out as one of the most beautiful women in France, the assertion often being indorsed by such celebrated artists as Madrazo and others, was Carlotta Guzman-Blanco, daughter of Antonio Guzman-Blanco, who preceded Castro as president of Venezuela. The Duke is one of the most prominent men in Paris social life. His father was the famed Duke of Morny, who made it possible for Napoleon III, to become emperor of France. For this Napoleon loaded the Duke's father with wealth in jewels and land and gave him one of the highest positions within the gift of an emperor. It was rumored some time ago that there was to be a divorce and that the Duke had designs on a wealthy young American heiress. Nothing came of the report, however. Their friends argue that divorce will be impossible, because they are both devout Catholics. W. K. VANDERBILT RECOVERED HIS PIN The following story of a recent adventure at a fashionable seaside resort in France, of which W. K. Vanderbilt is said to be the hero, is going the rounds of Paris, and has even found its way into print A. B. Mr. Vanderbilt, it is stated, while spending an hour or two at the Casino, suddenly discovered that his scarfin, containing an $8,000 pearl, had disappeared. Greatly annoyed, he immediately informed a detective employed to watch the gaming rooms, and offered a liberal reward, of the jewel, to which he attached great value as a souvenir, was restored to him. Promising to do his best, the detective disappeared. Ten minutes later he returned with a well-groomed man in evening dress, who politely begged Mr. Vanderbilt to follow him. When both were screened from view behind a clump of foliage, the man took from his pocket a handful of valuables and scarfpins, and held them out to Mr. Vanderbilt, saying quietly: "I'm sorry to say I'm not quite certain which is yours. However, here are my pins for this evening. Perhaps you will choose yours from them." Mr. Vanderbilt, rather nonplussed, at once picked out his pin, handing over in exchange the promised reward to the "finder," who, after this courteously departed into the night. The name of the fashionable resort is not given with certainty, but the most popular version says it was Deauville Bells and Steeple. The church spire at Shalfleet, Isle of Wight, England, is now being pulled down. There is a curious couplet relating to this spire, which runs: "The Shalfleet poor and silly people sold their bells to build a steepe. And the local tradition is that about a century ago, when the building of steeples was the fashion, the parishioners sold the peal of bells which hung in the fine old square Norman tower to the inmates of a French monastery and with the money thus obtained erected a steepe on the top of the tower. The erection has been an eyesore to archaeologists ever since, and much has been written deprecating its existence, but the parishioners have been satisfied with their steepe until just recently, when it was discovered that it was in a very dangerous state, and its weight was seriously damaging the old tower beneath. It has therefore been decided to pull down the structure, and an urgent appeal is being made for funds to remove it and to renovate the ancient tower. Montevideo to Be Fine Port. Montevideo, chief port of Uruguay, which ranks seventh in the ports of the world in total tonnage of vessels entering and clearing, is to be one of the finest ports in the world when improvements which have been decided on are carried out. The government will spend $30,000,000 in the next eight years in making the harbor deep enough for all vessels, and in order that the keen competition with Buenos Aires may be kept up.

Straight crowns and flat brims are among the smartest models, developed in white and black. The brims of these flat shapes are wide and the trimming very simple, but very chic. A pretty example of this style is shown here with crown of moire and brim of velvet. A collar of velvet ribbon and a long stiff plume of ostrich made up the trimming. A similar shape has a narrower brim and lower crown. It is covered with real brown velvet and trimmed Fashion Allows Wide Choice of Material for Fall Suits—Imitation Furs Are Being Worn. For suits this fall the "velours de laine," or woolen velour, occupies first place. This comes in striped effects, checked and undecided figured patterns, a good two-tone effect being produced by the raised pattern's contrast with a bright warp. Velours de laine is supple and admits of drapery, gathering and pleating without obtrusive bulkiness. It is a triumph of the weaver's art. Boucle cloths are also highly favored. These are the weaves that show little rings of thread that give a soft, rough effect. Peau de suede has the softness of silk and the full finish of suede. Velvets, corduroys and velveteens are important for afternoon suits, and the corded effects seem to be most generally used in costumes. Imitation furs are taking the place of the expensive peltry. These fur clothes form little cuffs, cushs and collars on jackets. Materials are, as a rule, cuffs, soft and wide. The tones are soft and neutral, allowing for the introduction of the color note by means of the vests, girdles, velvet collars and ornaments so much in vogue. To Press Plaints Now that plaited skirts are creeping back to the realm of fashion, women who like to attend to their own clothes will want to know just how to go about keeping them well pressed and in good condition. First of all, you must baste the plaits in place just as they were when the skirt was new; run a line of basting on the outside edge of each plait the full length, catching it down firmly to the material underneath. Lay it over the ironing board wrong side out, place a damp cloth over the plaits and press with a hot iron until the damp cloth is dry. Allow the basting threads to remain in the skirt after it is pressed for several hours; then remove them, and your skirts will keep their shape and look nicer for a long time. This same rule applies to all plaited garments. French Economy. The French woman understands the art of dress instinctively and by training, and is the most economical woman in the world—both as to housekeeping and the style of dress that will best bring out her good points—the framing that will make her an attractive picture. The perfection of a growth is not its elaborate details, but the grace and harmony of its effect. The best appearing woman at a recent and famous French dinner wore a shimmery green silk draped with gray chiffon, with creamy French lace sparingly used and a girdle finished with embroidery of cut steel. Dark Background. A black background makes warm colors, such as orange and red, appear warmer, but diminishes the effect of cold colors such as blue and lemon. On the other hand, a white background makes warm colors appear cooler, and throws into more brilliant relief all cold colors. Adjustable Tuck. I put an adjustable tuck in my pet-ticoat just above the flounce. Instead of sewing it in, I confine it with buttons and buttonholes or snap-fasteners, says a contributor to the Modern Priscilla. It is let out readily for a long dress, and just as readily shortened for a shorter one. K with long augur feathers that encircle the crown and curve over the brim. It is one of the finest of the new hats. A pretty French sailor with slightly rolling brim is all white except for the facing of black velvet. The low crown is rather small and admits the very graceful trim of ostrich feathers, without destroying any outline of brim or crown. A feather band, like a long plume, about the crown, and a half plume at the left side, curving over the brim edge and on the facing, make up an excellent example of the best millinery art. AS TO SKIRT AND WAISTLINE They Refuse to Change Materially— Lapels and Coat Collars Are to Be Small, is Decree. Of all the variables that refuse to vary the raised waistline is the most tantalizing. In Paris practically nothing is used except the raised or high waistline, but over here women are more divided in their opinion. One sees a gfeat many normal waistline skirts on smart women, but they are usually the women who think they are too tall or too stout to wear the raised line successfully. The cry of fuller skirts and normal waistlines is always taken up with great vigor at the beginning of each season, but it subsides quickly after an examination of the new models. There is no doubt at all that the leading dressmakers are producing fuller and more bouffant effects by means of their draperies and panniers, but they have not added a centimeter to the actual widths of their foundation skirts. The silhouette is as narrow as ever, and is likely to remain so for some time to come. In morning suits one sees the plain notched collar, a little larger as to the lapel than it would have been a few years ago, but much smaller than the collar and revers of an afternoon coat. In hacking suits the long plain sleeve is used altogether, but in silk and velveteen costumes and suits of that type the sleeve is a little short and wide at the bottom. The long sleeve is smart in day dresses of the simpler type, but in a dress or suit that is at all elegant either in cut or materials the shorter sleeve is preferred.—From the Dellencator. AUTUMN WALKING GOWN. M. Soft suede makes delightful little baby shoes, and it is quite easy for the deft fingered woman to make them and to decorate the leather with tiny flowers or dots.

Philadelphia Physician Finds Anthropologist Ranked High In Mental Calibber, Up Well Among Men of Action, Art or Science. Col. Henry C. Rizer, chief clerk of the United States geological survey, and executor under the will of the late Dr. W J McGee, eminent government anthropologist and son-in-law of Simon Newcomb, the noted astronomer, been officially notified by Dr. Edward Splitzka, the Philadelphia brain anatomist, tha der the will of the late Dr. W J McGee, eminent government anthropologist and son-in-law of Simon Newcomb, the noted astronomer, been officially notified by Dr. Edward Spitzka, the Philadelphia brain anatomist, tha t Dr. McGee's brain weighed •1,410 grams Dr. McGee died here recently and left a will directing that his brain be given to Dr. Spitzka and his body to Jefferson Medical college for scientific and morphological examination. Dr. McGee also willed to Dr. Spitzka the brain of the late Major J. W. Powell, former chief of the United States geological survey. Dr. Spitzka has taken a death mask of Dr. McGee for scientific study and preservation. The weight of Dr. McGee's brain—is a fraction more than three younds—is heavier than that of the average man. However, it ranks up well in weight among the brains of most men of action, art, or science, concerning which there is a scientific data. Dr. Spitzka has prepared a list of eminent men, concerning which he has authentic data, and the average weight of the brain was 1,469.65 grams. This average was 59.65 grams heavier than the weight of Dr. McGee's brain. Dr. Spitza's list of the brain weight of these men, shown in comparison with the metric weight of Dr. McGee's brain, is as follows, the brain weight being given in grams: Ivan Turgeneff, poet, novelist, 2,012; W. M. Thackeray, author, 1,658; George Brown, editor, 1,596; R. A. Harrison, chief justice of Canada, 1,590; Daniel Webster, statesman, 1,518; Lord John Campbell, lord chancellor of England, 1,517; Chaucey Wright, philosopher, 1,516; Edward C.

Liebler, chemist, 1,352; Walt Whitman, poet, 1,282, and Gen. Ben F. Butler, lawyer, 1,758. Dr. Spitzka has ascertained by analysis of brain weights that the average weight of twelve men who worked with exact sciences, such as astronomers and mathematicians, was 1,532 grams. All twelve had brains heavier than 1,400 grams. Next came fourteen men of action, statesmen, politicians and military men, with an average brain weight of 1,490 grams. The average brain weight of twenty-six men employed in the creative arts as given by Dr. Spitzka is 1,485 grams, while forty-eight men working in natural sciences averaged 1,440 grams. Juvenile Friendship. Victor and Clare are two small playmates who live in a town in the northern part of the state. Victor is five and Claire is seven, and their friendship is patterned after that of Damon and Pythias. Victor's father had to go to work early, and Victor is always out of bed for breakfast by 4:30 o'clock. Claire stays in bed until seven o'clock. Victor's father returned home at midnight with a bag of candy for his son a few nights ago, and the boy found it next morning when he got up for his early breakfast. He opened the bag, then, without extracting any of the contents, laid it aside. After breakfast he took his gift and, crossing the street, took his position on Claire's doorstep, where he stayed with his bag of candy intact, until Claire came downstairs. "When I saw the candy was in lots of little pieces," explained Victor later, "I knowed I couldn't divide it even, so I waited for Claire before I took any. He older than me and he's been to school, and I know he know how to do it right."—Indiaapolis News. Only Doll Shoe Factory. On Monday last, Fred K.

EXAMINER OF TEA POPULAR Charming Young Women Clerks by the Hundred Call Daily on Consider the predicament of George F. Mitchell, supervising tea examiner of the treasury department, innate courtesy and southern bred traditions of chivalry toward the gentler sex pull him in one direction and a stern sense of official duty in the opposite. His official work is in the treasury, where he has to taste cup after cup of tea. He has in his office all of the appurtenances for brewing tea, including a revolving table with twenty-four little cups and an electric water heater. Now, in the treasury there are more than four thousand clerks, one-third of them, say, are maiden ladies, all of whom are very fond of tea. How it came about no one knows. Whether keen faminine faculties first scented the delicate aroma stealing into the corridor or whether some girl clerk in Mr. Mitchell's office carried the tale never will be known. For two months Mr. Mitchell has had a rush of girl callers, whose numbers will only be eclipsed by the office seekers here if the administration changes. About ten o'clock in the morning the girl clerk in the next office develops a headache. A cup of Mr. Mitchell's tea would help it. She goes and gets it. Her assistant feels faint and think that a cup of that same tea would help her, and she gets it. "Oh, well," said the tea expert, "who could refuse so small a thing to a sweet young thing with a headache and a yearning for tea?" TABLETS FROM SHIP'S METAL Acting Secretary Winthrop Asks Sculptors for Designs—Probably Cost About $5 Each. Acting Secretary of the Navy Winthrop the other day wrote to six sculptors in New York asking them to submit suggestions for the design of a memorial tablet to be cast from metal taken from the wreck of the battleship Maine. All the material taken from the Maine which was suitable for relics having been disposed of, there remains several thousand pounds of metal, including large quantities of brass and bronze. It is intended to melt this up and from the mass cast the tablets for which designs have been requested. It is estimated there is metal enough for about 1,200 such tablets, which probably will be about elightteen or twenty inches long and ten or twelve inches wide. They will be given to applicants in the order in which requests are received, the receivers of the tablets paying the cost of making the plates. It is believed this cost will be very small, probably considerably less than $5. Besides the ornamentation, the tablets will have inscribed on them the chief facts in the history of the Main and the statement that they are composed of metal taken from the ship. MANY PENSION APPLICANTS Nearly Half Million Want Pensions Under the So-Called Sherwood Service Pension Act. There have been nearly half a million applications filed for pensions under the so-called Sherwood service pension act of May 11, 1912, and applications are arriving at the rate of several hundred a day. Those now being received come either from great distances or from veterans who were not aware of the passage of the Sherwood act. It has been impossible thus far for pension officials to classify these applications by states, for the reason that they are doing their level best to adjudicate all of the applications at the earliest possible moment, and the total applications for each state cannot be learned until after all of them have been adjudicated. The Sherwood law provides that the pension, once the application has been adjudicated, shall date back to the time of the filing of the application, and the officials of the pension office, who are being deluged with pathetic appeals from many veterans, want to put through these claims as quickly as possible. The Newspaper. In times of peace there is no more interesting reading for the multitude than the public papers, which furnish early information of the latest doings of the world. The quiet, opulent citizen exercises thus in an innocent way a party spirit which in our finite nature we neither can nor should get rid of. Every comfortable person thus gets up a fictious interest, like that which is often felt in a bet, experiences an unreal gain or loss, and as in the theater, feels a very lively, though imaginary, sympathy in the good or evil fortune of others. This sympathy seems often arbitrary, but it rests on moral grounds. For now we give to praiseworthy designs the applause they deserve; and now again, carried away by brilliant successes, we turn to those whose plans we should otherwise have blamed.—Goethe. Real Diplomat. "Why does your son wish to enter the diplomatic service? Does he think he has a special aptitude for it?" "Yes; he has been a member of a church choir for two years without becoming involved in any of its quarrels."

Chicago.—What is believed to have been a conspiracy against the life of Col. Roosevelt was ended by the death of Maximilian Caxello, twenty-four years old, and Miguel Ortez, the same age, both of the United States of Colombia. The men were asphyxiated by gas in their room in the Fifth Avenue hotel. That these men planned to kill Roosevelt and that they even visited Mercy hospital for that purpose is an established fact, say the police. These men, it is said, have followed Roosevelt for months. They visited the Mercy hospital in company with Luis Montilia, son of a Colombian senator, whose whereabouts are unknown. They insisted on seeing Roosevelt but were turned away. A letter was found in their room warning Col. Roosevelt that "the time had come for you to mediate on the blackest spot in the history of your life." "Remember," added the men in the letter, "that although you are and have been a great world citizen, the homage you received when you came back from Africa was marred by the refusal of the Vicar of Christ to see you." Billy Rugh. Newsboy Hero Dies. Gary, Ind.—"I guess I'm some good after all." Billy Rugh, the forty-one-year-old cripple whose withered leg was amputated to save the life of a girl by a skin grafting operation at a hospital here, spoke these words and then dled. Pneumonia was said by the physicians to have been the cause of death. The aliment, however, resulted directly from his self-sacrifice, having been due to irritation of the lungs by the ether that was given him when his leg was cut off.

State-wide prohibition has been attempted in twenty-five states. And because of the many evils that follow in its wake, seventeen of these experimenting commonwealths QUICKLY REPEALED THEIR STATE-WIDE PROHIBITORY LAWS. Colorado is now undergoing an important period of her development. Her people are prosperous and content. Why disturb this era of peace and prosperity by the upheaval in our industrial and social affairs which state-wide prohibition would surely bring? In deciding upon a method to best handle the license question, our Legislature in its wisdom has endowed the people of Colorado with the PRIVILEGES OF LOCAL SELF-GOVERNMENT AND HOME RULE—known as the LOCAL OPTION LAW. Under that effective and logical measure we have real self-government in every community of the state in respect to the liquor question. In view of the various conditions found in different sections and communities of Colorado—or any other state for that matter—in view of the wide difference in customs and habits and tastes of the people themselves—the local option method which we now have in this state is the only just and reasonable and proper way to settle the liquor question in Colorado. An enormous revenue is now being paid into the public treasury for public use and service by the regulated liquor industry of this state. State-wide prohibition will stop this revenue and unlicensed, unrestrained bootleggers and "blind-pigs" will flourish even in the communities which now have the right to vote "dry" and ARE "DRY." Consider carefully how such a blanket law as state-wide prohibition would proclaim to the world Colorado's inhospitality and desire to interfere with the rights of the strangers who visit our cities and resorts every year. Think how such a state-wide law would wreck our tourist business—one of our greatest assets, the growth of which benefits every nook and corner of Colorado directly or indirectly.
