The Denver silver mass meeting,
held last week, was the largest demon
stration ofthis character ever witnessed
in the West. Every interest in Colo
RADIO was represented there. State off,
Gals, Senators and Congressman took
part in the deliberations, which occu-
pied the greater part Of two days. The
meeting promulgated the most eloquent
and forcible addresses, defining the
situation and appealing to the country
for just redress and relief that was ever
presented to the public; and yet, in
the face OF all this, a Denver citizen
named Moffst, who might more appro-
priately be called "Judas Iscariot,"
sends a telegram East stating that the
meeting did not voice the sentiment Of
the people Of Colorado, and that it was
not attended by the representative men
of the State. The West, we are sorry

The Chicago Calamity.

The brave iremen whose lives were
sacrificed in the burning OF the cold
storage warehouse on the Fair grounds
at Chicago were simply the victims OF
criminal Encouragement. Such a tim
der box and death trap as that high
tower proved to be should never have
been suffered to go up. Had the erec-
ton OF a useless structure of that hight
by q private conce been permitted
at all on the exposition grounds iniam-
mable material should have been re-
Quired. In other words, there should
have been a fireproof tower or n o tower.
Mayor Harrison has expressed himself
in the most emphatic terms to this
effect. But the Mayor might have
spoken to better purpose had he raised
his voice at the proper time.

To Eucourare Matrsmony.

A queer measure has been introduced
in France to encourage matrimony and
the rearing of large families. No other
country stands in need Of such legisla-
ton, but in Franc there are positively
more deaths than births in a number
Of the departments, and the population
is going down. The proposal is that
all working women are to receive, on
condition Of staying home, from fifty
cents to one dollar a day during the
last five months before a child is born
and two months a~fterward, or a year if
the child lives. To provide funds a
special tax OF So and s12 per individual
employed is to be levied on all en-
ployers of all children and women.
Whether this proposal will become a
law is another question.

his appearance. This time he lives at
Albany, Oregon, and he lately lost $40,
which was found by a man who kept
it for three months before he discov-
cred its owner, to whom he promptly
gave it. The owner never even thanked
the man for his kindness and wanted
him to pay ten per cent interest for
three months for which the money was
in his possession. The finder natu'
rally refused to do this, and the owner
is now thinking seriously Of bringing
suit for the interest.
