THE SOUTHERN UTES
The Pen and Ink Campaign Still
Goes On.
IN FAVOR OF THEIR REMOVAL
The Other Side of the Question as Viewed by
A Resident of Durango,
California.

A correspondent of the Denver NeWs
writes as follows: Your correspondent,
Sylvester Richardson, who appears to be
my senior by three years as Coloradan,
evidently considers blank denial, bare
assertion and random abuse as constituting
an unanswerable argument that the Utes
Should not be removed from the state and
dumped iuto that portion of the United
States which they have selected as just
adapted to their desires, and which is
within the sole jurisdiction of Their guar
dian. the general government. That the
three commissioners together with large
delegation of EUte chiefs selected the pro
posed new reservation is fact as widely
known as the appointment of the Indian
commission. Yet, in referring to the selec-
ton by the commissioners, Mr.. Richardson
saws: ''Sir, they did not; they merely
carried out the provisions of the bill.'
Does Mr. Richardson pretend that the bill
provided for the commission provided for
the proposed reservation also. If so, then
he should state that Congress and not
Durango as he charges, selected it.
Modesty forbids that our little city should
claim the possession of so much authority
But, certainly, if Durango were permitted to
REMOVE THE UTEs
they would be speedily transported to the
SPOT they have selected in Utah, and which
is. perhaps. the best site for them in the
whole United States outside of Indian ter
ritory, where all uncivilized Indians
should be removed to, there to fight out
their own battles and their own salvation
in their own way after being amply pro
yided for for generation. Congress seems
to forget that white settlers are here by
invitation, that they bought their lands,
pay their taxes and obey the laws of the
land like other good citizens, and therefore
are entitled to all the rights and protection
of person and property that other people
are, which they cannot obtain with for
eign and irresponsible clement in their
midst. Suppose, MIR. Editor. the Utes
were placed on a strip of country fifteen
miles wide, three and half miles from
Denver, and extending from Castle Rock
in Douglass county to the northern bound
airy of the state. How long would they be
permitted to remain! Yet such is their
situation relatively here. Is there any
other government on top OF the globe that
would expect untamCd savagcs to live in
close proximity with civilized communi-
ties with no other separating boundaries
than imaginary geographical lines. Yet

There Are No Happy Days

For those who continue to rise unre- freshed after nights of unrest. Nerv- ousness, insomnia, indigestion-these constitute a triple alliance that per- petually wars against mans comfort and robs both brain and body of tran quihty. Combat the trio for time with Hostetter's Stomach Bitters and 1t will give ground and eventually fly the field. The basis of reform Is the rectifcation of digestion, for the brain and nerve trouble Is simply a reflex of the disturbance of that all-important function. A wineglassfnl before each meal of the national stomachic insures facile digestion, and a repetition of the pleasant dose before retiring pro- notes nerve and muscle invigorating sleep. Associated with indigestion we usually find biliousness and con- stipation. But together or independ- ent of each other, these maladies are subjugated by the Bitters, which also remedies kidney trouble, rheumatism, neuralgia and malaria.

Chicago Opera-House


 The favorite comedian, MT. W. H. Crane, began 6 two weeks engage ment at the Chicago opera house on the 18th instant. This is his first en- gagement since the dissolution of the dramatic partnership of Robson and Crane, and he has marked the event by a grand production of new four-act American comedy by Brander Mat thews and George H. Jessop, entitled "On Probation," in which he plays Jonathan Sils6ee, of Chicago. The play deals with the adventures of three typical Americans, Ssls6ee, his tuft admiring spinster sister, and se- cretly bethrothed fance in Europe. The opening scene Is laid in Paris, and thence the characters drift to Switzer- land, and the plot affords Mir. Crane and his supporting cast ample oppor- tunity for good acting and laughter provoking speeches and situations. MT. Cranes supporting company consists of Georgie Drew Barrymore, Miss Lizzie Hudson, Miss Augusta Foster, Miss Jenny Karsner, Miss Jane Stuart, MT. James Neill, MT. F. D. Frowley, MT. Henry Bergman, MT. William Hubert, MT. Harry Braham, MT. J. J. Gilmartin and MT. George F. De We're, stage manager.
 No expense has been spared in mounting the play. Its scenery and appointments were designed by MT. Ernest Albert, who painted the for mer. MT. Henry E. Abbey, of New York, kindly loaned MT. William Seymour to MT. Crane to rehearse the play, and one of its authors, MT. Jes- sop, was present the first night to witness the birth of his brain-child.

One in q Million.

As we got down In tho neighbor- hood of Cape HAtteras, says writer In the New York 0tfn, it came on to blow great guns and the seas were tre- mendous. The steamer pitched and tossed and rolled In . way to frighten everybody, and about midafternoon a a sleek looking young man pitched across the cabin to the sofa on which l was sitting, and asked:
 "Do you think we can pull through1"
 "It's doubtful"
 "Good chance of going down, eh1"
 "Best in the world"
 "Well, have few dollars in coun- terfeit money with me-some that was passed on me-and l guess I'll throw it overheard"
 He pitched across to his state room and probably got rid of it. In about half an hour he came for me again and asked:
 "What do you think of 1t now?"
 "She seems to be laboring heavily, and am expecting to hear that she has sprung . leak"
 "Is that so7 I have two or three packs of cards in my vAlise. That might count against me in the other world, and I guess Pll heave lem out"
 He was gone about quarter of an hour this time, and ss he staggered up to the sofa again the steamer almost stood on end.

 "What are the chances noW?"

How Gladstone Spends the Day.

Blakely Hall, in Philadelphia Press.
 Mir. Gladstone's breakfast is simple, usually consisting of bacon and eggs or a bit of fish and 6 cup of tea. lm- mediately after breakfast he goes to his library, whether in town or coun- try, and reads the daily papers for the greater part of an hour. This is a matter of importance to him, and he will stand no interruption. He said, in talking of newspapers, that 1t did not take him long to run through 6 lot of them, as he knew exactly where to look for the information he wanted. The foreign news was usually briefly set forth, and he was thor oughly conversant with what went on in parliament. The things that interest the Liberal leader most are the ideas set forth in editorials. He does not read criminal or sccial news, but skins the papers for political sugges- tions and views. Then comes . cores pondence that is of extraordinary magnitude. MT. Gladstone sees only a few of the letters addressed to him. A fair proportion of them are abusive epistles from indignant Tories, black guarding the Liberal chieftain with every epithet known to the dictionary of abuse.
 If 6 letter is particularly amusing in its violence Herbert Gladstone shows 1t to his father, and it never fails to bring 6 smile. Nearly all of the cor respondence is managed by the son. He is quiet, almost plaintive man of about thirty eight, with small nous tache and bushy hair brushed back from his high forehead. He affects extreme simplicity in dress turnover collar, cheap five-cent cravat, loose fitting and low-priced clothes and an unobtrusive manner. He Is exceed ingly amiable and Is guyed 6 good deal by his political opponents for his ten- dsncy to preside at women's suffrage conventions and tea- parties of the weaker sex, but the opinion prevails among politicians that he is man of real and solid ability, though he chooses to disguise 1t by his affectation of extreme modesty. heard MT. Par nell refer to young Gladstone once in very complimentary terms, and MT. Parnell Is not given to the bestowing of compliments with any pronounced degree of recklessness.
 About nine o'clock MT. Gladstone begins to receive his callers, and from that time there is not c minute left to himself till one. This ordeal of receiv- ing visitors and delegations has arrived at an awful pitch of perfection in England. The British statesmen have c horror to face that our politicians know nothing of. On any and every conceivable occasion the British voters will form . committee or delegation and send it to call on the most noted man within reach. To receive such . band of visitors by making . little speech and shaking all their hands is tho accepted idea of the duty of pub hc man. Not to do it fills the voter
