THE OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES PAY
None Provided for Office of Mr.. A. T
Atkinson.

Auditor General Austin has ruled
that by a strict Interpretation of the
laws as they now exist the salary of
the superintendent of education is not
provided for. He thinks that nothing
can be done in the matter until the
Legislature meets.
The Minister of Foreign Affairs was
Minister of Public instruction The
former being the oldest office and al
ready provided for in the appropriation
schedules no salary was carried by
the latter. At the same time it was
considered cO-equal in every respect to
the former This is implied in the law,
as the head of the Foreign Affairs de-
partment in the code is made Depart
ment of Foreign Affairs. Department
of Public Instruction" and the duties
applied to both are run in the same
chapters. When the matter was before
the Executive sometime ago it was
agreed that the Department Of Public
Instruction was the successor of the
dual office of Foreign Affairs and it
self, and that the superintendent of
public instruction succeeded to the
salary provided for the Minister and
should draw the same until the legls-
lature reformed the whole schedule.
Mr. Atkinson was seen in regard to
the matter this morning and said:
Il have not received a salary nor
have I asked for any. 1 am not sure
that Mr.. Austins position is the cor
rect one; in fact, l believe it is not.
At the same time Mr.. Austin feels
that he should be on the safe side No,
it is not my intention to contest the
opinion or ruling. l am confident
that the Legislature will do all that is
fair and right and am ready to leave
my interests in it's hands. My purpose
will be to do my work so thoroughly
and well that even a hostile legislature
will give the department of education
all the money it requires. / would dc
that even if there was not cent of pay
attached to nv office"

Formally the new organization has
not been christened, but it will be next
April, when the annual meeting of the
Western Range Association will be
held. The list of officers includes Of
fcials of the Western Range Associa-
tion, with some new ones added.
The convention representing the live
stock association of the state, after a
three days session, adjourned Satur-

the local live stock associations in Colo
RADIO, with an invested capital of $25,-
100000.
The executive committee was author
iZed and instructed to enroll the asso-

delegates to the annual convention to
be held at Salt Lake City next month.
The association is entitled to about 400
delegates, a majority of whom will go.
In connection with cattle rustling,
the convention endorsed the action of
the Roaring Fork and Eagle River
Stock Association in requesting Sena-

introduce n bill in the Thirteenth Gen

existing laws that it will be possible
for stockmen to protect their property
without resorting to violence.

tary inspectors on the borders of the

THE COLORADO LIVE STOCK
ASSOCIATION ORGANIZED i

the next Legislature was authorized
by the following resolution:
"Whereas, the idea seems to prevail
in some quarters that the stockmen of
Colorado represented in this convention
are attempting to organize a socalled
third house of the Legislature, or, in
other words, are preparing to lobby
through certain bills which they desire
to become laws, and there seems to be
popular idea that we propose to use
money and all the wiles of the paid
lobbyist to secure our ends, and
"Whereas, the stockmen of Colorauo
desire to ask nothing at the hands of
the state Legislature that is not just
and right, and this convention. repre-
senting as it does more than $25,O00,OOO
of invested capital in the live stock in
dustry of this state, is only anxious
that just and equitable laws be placed
upon the statute books, and
Whereas as n body of duly accredit-
ed delegates representing nearly the
whole live stock industry of this state
we have determined that certain laws
need amendment and certain new laws
are necessary for the benefit of this
industry, and as we are opposed most
emphatically to the third house sys-
TEN of securing legislation, but as tax
payers ana cltlZenS we nave the r1SnC
to lay our demands before the Legisla-
ture; therefore be it
Resolved, that a committee of three.
to be known as the legislative commit
tee,' be appointed by this convention.
with instructions to see that the pro-
posed bills and amendments be placed
before the Legislature in the usual and
proper manner. and that said commit
tee ask permission to appear before the
legislative committees to which said
bills and amendments may be referred,
for the purpose of explaining the de-
mands of the stockmen, and making
plain to the members of the Lcgisla-
ture why said bills should be made
law; said committee to report the re-
suit of it's efforts to the next meeting
of this association: and lie it further
Resolved, that this committee shall
serve without pay or compensation Of
any kind, and that Mr. ii. II. Richard
son of Denver, Mr.. ]. =. Adams Of
Denver and Mr.. Il. II. Grubb of Car
bondale be asked to act as that COM
mittee."

Iekln, Dec. lI.-DeunlIe INSTRUCTIONS,
supplementing yesterdays communica-
ton from London, have been received
by Sir Ernest Mason Satow, the Brit
ish minister, and he now demands Il
modification of a point in the joint note
which the foreign ENJOYS generally re-
gard as important. This means fur
ther delay, as all the ministers must
communicate anew with their respect
i've governments.
Just what is the nature of the OBJ
lection raised by Great Britain the
ministers decline to say, but they ad-
init that the new demand will involve
n great deal more of diplomatic proceed
ure.
Washington, Dec. 17.-Officials here
are at a loss to understand the reasons
for the important modification in the
joint Chinese note which it is reported
the British minister to Pekin is to de.
mand before signing that document
preparatory to its presentation to the
Chinese plenipotentiaries. They have
no information on the subject, as moth.
ing has been heard from Mr.. COnger on
the matter for some days.
The understanding here has been
that the joint note as agreed upon by
the conveys was in the main satisfac-
tory to the British government. That
government simply desired a slight
amendment, said to be in the nature Of
n mere change in style of language to
be used, rather than any amendment
to the scope of the agreement This did
not conflict with any of the principles
held out for by our government, and
such being the case, it was confidently
expected the signature of the British
minister would be affixed to the agree
ment promptly and the note presented
to the Chinese at an early date.
