The Boulder Herald with a
self sufficiency all It's own is at
tempting to read curtain lecture
to the other papers of the state
for calling in question the at times
"all hoggishness" of Denver.
Now, the Herald may know some
thing of the treatment of it's, own
section and it doubtless is treated
all right. We know for a fact
that it's chatauqua is we'll patron
lied by Denver people, but there
are few other places treated as
Boulder. Denver, during its fss-
tival of Mountain and Plain gets
more money from the San Juan
and western slope sections in a
day, than she probably receives
from Boulder in year. When
our miners on this side go to
Denver to see the festival it is
with fat pocketbooks. Now Ou-
ray very recently had a big cele-
bration of Labor Day and Grand
junction has celebrated for a week
her Peach Festival and we'll guar
antee that not fifty people in Den
YER purchased tickets to the two
events, while doubtless from both
Grand Junction and Ouray 500
tickets at least are sold each year
to the Festival of Mountain and
Plain, going to show that the edi-
tor of the Boulder Herald don't
know what he is talking about
and is doing that little lickspittle
business to be recognized by the
Denver press.

Had His Pockets Picked.

r. M. Cliff, cook from Ouray, had
his pockets picked on Main street in
front of the Mesa County bank this
morning.
A crowd OF Ouray gamblers stopped
in front and Cliff engaged in converse
ton with two Of them with whom he
was acquainted, While his attention
was thus attracted young man with
light suit and brown hat picked his
pockets.
Mr. Cliff did not notice his loss until
he desired to pay for ticket which he
had intended to purchase to Denver. He
had been cooking in one Of the hotels
had just been paid off
When asked whether he had reported
the matter to the city police officer he
remarked that he had sot been able to
see policeman.

1t is all right to suggest to let
bygones be bygones, in regard to
the treatment Of the Colorado
soldiers at Manila, but it is an
other thing as an American to
have suffered the indignities our
soldiers have, through the treat
ment of their officers. 1t is more
than likely that Colorado mothers
and fathers and wives will believe
the statement of that glorious wo-
man, Rose Kidde Beere, whose
hands SO frequently closed the
eyes in death of many poor
soldier lad, than the statement of
the officer martmets, who seemed

small difference of only one-half point be-

The markets here opened rather dull to-

the victorious sortie al Kimberley. The
close was cheerful on an unconfirmed ru-
NOR of fresh victory at Ladysmith.
Consols responded with an advance of 3-16
of l04is. Confidence was impaired furthed
by expression of the opinion now becoming
general that there will be money squeeze
as O result of the war. American securities
were hard throughout the session and
closed at the best. They were fairly active.
Favorites were Southern railroad issues
Louisville and Nashville and Chesapeake
and Ohio. 1t Is rumored that the Bank OF
Paris is i,egotia ting a big conversion of the
Spanish loan. Money was cratic, and in
bills the tendency was to greater ease.
