this stand because there is no provi- sion that the cost of paying for the care of such animals and the cost of their capture be paid, except in the regular way by fine of the delinquent.
 It has been decided that Mir. Hol- brook will resign as poundkeeper an office which pays him nothing in addi- tion to his salary as secretary of the society, and that he will be succeeded by MT. Seymour. It is the general opinion that this will be a compromise measure, as the Health and Police Committee has recommended that the impounding of animals be taken away from the society and put into politics again.
 If this should be done there is a great likelihood that there will be a repetition of the disgraceful scenes of the past acts of cruelty and corruption that caused the society to take hold of the matter some years ago. It is also reported that ex-Pcund Keeper Osborne will under no circumstances be appointed to succeed MT. Holbrook.
 Under the corrupt system that some of the supervisors suggest there is no guarantee that private citizens will not again be subjected to the petty black mail and insults that thrived in the wicked past. There is also no assur- ance that animals will not be stolen, turned out of owners lots and abused. as in the past, that disreputabIe wield- CTS of the lariat and dog catching bas- ket may again grow fat by corrup- tion.
 The Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals has gone into the animal question in a thorough and sci entific manner. Their plant for the care and final destruction of condemned dogs has been pronounced the finest in the United States. Rev. Dr. Clark, founder of the Christian Endeavor So- ciety. visited their plant at Sixteenth and Alabama streets when he was here. and his opinion was that the plant and the methods pursued were incompara- bly, ahead of all such institutions in the United States. It is the general opinion of those who have investigat- ed the matter that the methods of this society are in every way creditable, and that the Board of Supervisors will make a great error if they do so rash a thing as to place the care of animals In the hands of ward politicians again.
 The society does not desire to see its plant become worthless by an order of the Board of Supervisors, made through Jealousy. It absolutely refuses. how ever, to contribute a cent to the fund as demanded by Chairman Delany.

 Assistant Secretary E. L. wadham Vof the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals makes the start ling accusation that he has been ap- preached by Chairman Delany of the Health and Police Committee of the Board of Supervisors in a way that would do justice to a Black Bart.
 By the way, can you put me on how to get S500?" is the delicate way the chairman of this responsible com- mittee is reported to have made known his corrupt and criminal desires. This was also told to MT. Charles Bauer
 This language was reported to the directors of the society" said Director Samuel Seymour, "and we decided to pay no attention to 1t further than to resist any attempt to coerce or black mail the society"
 The language reported to have been used in this way to Wadham and others-twice to Wadham-is enough to warrant an investigation into the methods of the chairman of this inn portant committee. If the charges are true they constitute the most shameful case of political and official blackmaiI that has been reported in many years.
 This language becomes the more serious when it is recalled that a petty spite has existed against the so- ciety by various Supervisors ever since Secretary Holbrook first refused to re- cognize the requests of Supervisors. which are quite numerous, that animals held in the pound be released with out cost to the city"
 In the old days when impounding an- finals was carried on as freely as rob- ping in the regions of the Alhambra. it Rwas common thing for Supervisors to flood the pound master with these requests to favor every political heeler in the neighborhood Printed forms showing the shameful extent of this abuse still exist and are used daily, though the secretary, acting under le- gal advice and the interpretation of the clerk of the board, has refused to recognize any such orders.

The Florence daily tribune., 1898-09-30

Yesterdays Citizen contained a
"Short Sermon" written by one of
the leading business firms of this
place, that, while it was not en-
tirely orthodox, teemed with busi-
ness truths and argument. 1t is a
fact that during the Festival at
Denver there will be a general ex-
odus from smaller towns of people
going to that city under the i'm
preston that while there they can
save money by doing their fall
shopping.
One should not get the idea that
the merchants of Denver, who sub
scribed thousands of dollars to-
ward the festival fund, will sell
their goods at cost or at even a
nominal profit. The object of the
carnival is to get outside people
into the city in order that the ef-
chants may reap harvest.
Every citizen of Florence should
feel that it is the best town on
earth, and Loyalty assist in main
tanning spirit of enterprise by
encouraging with his patronage
the efforts of our home merchants
to make the town second to none
as trading center.
AS n matter of fact, Florence
prices on all lines of merchandise
are as low and in many instances
much lower than are Denver prices
on the same grades of goods, as
careful investigation will prove.
We are informed by one of our
hustling drygoods merchants that
while in Denver the first of the
week he visited the leading de-
partment stores where he was
quoted prices on great many
different articles, and that without
exception prices are positively
lower here than those quoted by
the city houses.
The reason for this will be OBJ
vious when rents and other ex-
penses are taken into considera-
ton.
TIE Denver merchants are COM
planning of dull times. Let us
not give the merchants of Flor
ence occasion to complain of dull
times because of our turning our
patronage TO outside houses.
Florence is our home. Let us
support it in every possible way.

The holding of the sessions of
the Peace Commission at Paris
seems to emphasize the persistent
ly hostile attitude of France. While
they naturally would like to col
lect the $40O,OOO,OOO Spain owes
them, it is absurd to ask the Unit
ed States to pay it. The coolness
of public sentiment in Paris to-
wards America ought to have its
proper effect upon our corporation
in the Exposition of 1900 Amer
lea has catered SO long to foreign
insolence that the change in policy
outlined by Secretary OF State Hay
will constitute refreshing con-
trast. The Latin race generally
needs general rounding up. They
should be made to recognize the
power and dignity of the United
States.-Daily Mining Record.

account of the attempted train
robbery says: "The engineer and

THEIR AIMS ARE HIGH

In Paris new society has just been
established under the title Of The In
ternational Union For the Realization
of the Equal Rights AM Duties of Man
and Woman. The articles OF the ASSOC
citation are ambitious. They embody
such items as the abolition OF war,
capital punishment, etc. the suppress
sica of the exploitation OF workers:
the advocacy of co-educatlon. equal
civil political and economical rights
for both sexes; that the means OF ex-
istence and a thorough education
should be guaranteed to all. and lastly
a recognition OF the duties OF man
and woman toward the animals.
Mrs Alice Major, the President and
founder of the union, Is member of
the London Pioneer Club and various
foreign organizations, and is recog-
nized worker in the cause Of feminism.
The governing body is composed OF
both men and women, a fact which Ia

PRESERVING WOOD.

A new method OF preserving wood
from decay, knowa as the Haskin
process, is being tried on large scale
in England. Instead of withdrawing
the sap and injecting creosote or some
other antiseptic substance. as Is usu-
ally done, Mr.. Haskin submits the
wood TO superheated air under pres
sure OF IA atmospheres. BY this pro-
cess, it is averred, the sap Is chemi-
cally changed into powerful antisep-
tic mixture, which. by consolidating
with the fiber, strengthens as well as
nres erYes the wood.

vantage of practical military knowl-
edge, as there are few of the English
regiments that have not seen service
in the field. This alone is decided
advantage to the English arms over
those of Russia. Then, too, England
can mobilize her forces much more
quickly than Russia can, which is OF
course, a strong point.
On the sea, England is supreme. She
has nearly twice as many lighting
ships of all types as has Russia. Not
only this, but the English vessels are
capable of throwing several times as
much weight of solid shot and shell
in a given time as the ships Of the
Car. The fleets of both these nations
are composed of some of the finest
fighting vessels in the world, and
while England is the queen of the
seas" Russia would be able to give
her many good battles on the water.
A comparative table of the efficiency
of both nations on land and sea and
on a war footing is given below. The
figures are taken from standard au-
thorities and are as nearly correct as
is possible:
Russia's standing army on a war
footing would number 1900. 000. 1t is
composed of the regular army main
tanned during times Of peace, and the
reserves, which are composed Of the
Cossacks and a number OF men from
the semi-civilized tribes that inhabit
Siberia and other portions of the Rus
sian empire. While many of these
make good soldiers, they are not to
be trusted, as they are not friendly TO
the government or its policy, and are
simply compelled to fight or suffer
exile. The forces that England could
put into the field would nulnDer about
4,5C0,000, and the majority of them
would be taken from the veterans and
those on the reserve and voluteeI
registers. Most of the men have seen
! service at one time or another, and
! they are we'll disciplined. A numDei
! Of the natives of India would also os
/ taken into the service, and while they
are not equal to the white soldiers o.
| the regular standing army, they are
more than a match fer some of the
! troops that would be called in by
! Russia from the frontier. The peace
standing of the Russian army is 1,160.
