Gard Of Thanks and Explanation

The editor desires to sincerely
thank his good friend, Mr.. A, Win
ham, for filing the editorial chair
so ably during his stay in Colorado
He writes well and would make a
splendid journalist, with experience,
IntiiisS connection we desire to
make a little explanation to our
readers, lest they might think us a
little vacilating, as in two instances
Mr.. Winhan unwitingly and no
doubt without intending to change
the policy of the paper or do us any
Injustice, expressed opposite ideas
to that heretofore held by us
On Thursday goth, an editorial squib
witticism atSenator Berry's wood
en- leg" said that he would have to
do more than shake it to defeat
Governor Jones, "for Daniel is
mighty on the stump" Senator
Berry has proven worthy of every
trust imposed upon him by the peo-
ple of Arkansas, and we believe will
be reelected if no better man than
Coy. Jones opposes him. Again, on
Monday oath, an editorial squib in.
clines to commend or condone Gov,
Jones pardoning policy. We be-
neve in mercy, justice and equality,
but see little in this line in Gov.
Jones favor. Our courts try men
for their crimes, and, it is well
known that not one-half of the
guilty are ever convicted and pun
ished as courts are too lenient,
Then for a governor to pardon sew
eral hundred convicted criminals ir
one year is wrong, in our opinion
Even God himself refuses to re
woke his judgments, after ouc(
invoking them. Why shoulc
puny man Ga governor) be more
merciful than an all-merciful Godi
Abuse Of the pardoniug power anc
the delays and uncertainties Of the
law is largely responsible for moi
law and tends to anarchy
We write this without intending
any reflection upon Mr. Winham-
simply in explanation, nothing
more, Mr., w. expressed his own
views, as he had a right to do, and
we do not censure or blame him for
it, at all.

Our amateurs gave their second
performance last night at the Au,

house and the performance was
creditable to all alike. Miss Park
ms sang a sweet song and was en-
cored; Mr.. Ward, the heavy william,
made a hit as an actor, He should
adopt the stage as a profession, fol
aside of having good voice, he
carries himself well on the stage
The company will give another per

OBSERVATIONS ON COLORADO.

The editor Of this paper, just
back from a few weeks visit to the
Rocky mountains, will risk a few
observations in regard to that
couutry-Colorado.
Itis truly a fne country, with re-
gard to climate and scenery.
But man can notliye on such things
Principal meaus of earning liveli-
hood, is in mining, aud this will new
er support a large population-as
so many lose where the few gam.
Agriculture, however, is gradually
coming to the front, by means of ir-
riration along the running streams.
A large portion of the state IS
arid, hence agriculture can never
attain the proportions it does in
other states where this is not so.
From obvervation and iuforma-
tiou gained, we are led to believe
that business men do not prosper
| there as well rs in this section
more go broke than in any state
we have knowledge of. At Colorado
Springs, we did not see so many va
cant business houses as in Manitou
and Pueblo 1--WE stopped of day
at Pueblo, but found little to write
about, as smelters and Bessemel
steel rail works refuse admission
to all visitors, on account of labor
strikes and agitation.) At Manitor
we were told that nearly all stores
closed with the summer season, a!
business becomes stagnaut after
that-of course This is bad upon tn,
| property owner
State laws allowing negroes to at
tend public shcools with the white
is very obnoxious to Southern peo
pie. Colored people also attenc
white churches. 1t is a wonder the,
are not given same privileges in tn
hotels.
Upon the whole we do not thin
a Southern man would like to liv
in Colorado, nor could he prosper a
well there, as business methods ant
conditions are vastly different. Ia

IS IT MALARIA Or ALUM

Languor, loss of appetite, indi-
gestion and often feverishness are
the common symptoms of a physio-
logical condition termed malaria, "
All these symptoms may be and
frequently are the effect on the
use of alum baking powder as in
food making. There is no question
about the poisonous effect of alum
upon the system. 1t obstructs d.
gestion, prostrates the nerves, CO.
agulateB and devitalizes the blood
All this has been made clear,
thanks to physicians, boards of
health and food commissions So
highly injurious to the health OF
the community does the eminent
head of the University of Pennsyl-
vania, DR., Barker, consider the
alum baking powders that he says
the sale of them should be pro.
hibited by law
Under these circumstances it is
worth the whole Of every housewife
to employ the very little care that
is necessary to keep so dangerous
an element from the food of her
family.
A pure cream Of tartar baking
powder which is the only kind that
should be used, ought to cost abont
forty-fve to fifty cents a pound,
Therefore, if you are paying much
less, something is wrong if you are
paying twenty-five cents or less per
pound, the powder is certainly
made from alum.
Always bear these simple facts
in mind when purchasing baking

Still More Counterfeiting.

The Secret Service has unearthed
another band of counterfelters and
secured a large quantity Of bogus
bills, which are so cleverly executed
that the average person would neY-
er suspect them of being spurious
Things of great value are always
selected by counterfeiters for imi
tation, notably the celebrated Hos
letters Stomach Bitters, which has
many imitators but no equals for
indigestion, dyspepsia, constipation,
nervousness and general debility,
The Bitters sets things right in the
stomach, and when the stomach is
in good order it makes good blood

the Bitters get at the seat of
