its excellent qualities. Many of them

Gen. Fred Funston is as level
headed as he is brave. He said in
a speech, in New York, referring
to Americans who had deserted to
the Filipinos and afterwards been
captured and executed for treason:
~There are many men in the U. S.
who did more with their mouths
and minds to aid the insurgents
than did these poor men with their
Krag-Jorgensen rifles. 1 would
rather see those men hanged for
treason than to see one of our sol
diers dead on the field of battle. .
In the same speech Gen. Funston
said: "All of those men (our sol
diers) who have fallen since De
cember 1900, have been victims oi
lot of misinformed and misguided
D people here in the Z. S."

WOMAN SUFFRAGE IN THE
EAST.
DENVER PosT.

DENNEh OSI.
We hope our eastern friends are
not so ungallant as to "jolly" the
ladies, if we may indulge in the
worldly vernacular.
And yet the two states where the
woman are pronounced, prominent
and prevalent, laid away indef-
nitely the vital proposition of fe-
male suffrage.
Iowa, after much discussion,
after loudly proclaiming the desira-
bility of giving the women the
right to vote, after its senators and
assemblymen had made labored
and glowing speech anent the up
lifting of home politics by the pres
ence, advice and general introduc-
ton of the ladies', quietly killed
the resolution yesterday when the
critical moment arose.
The ladies = many of them-are
just little provoked. They have
long listened to all these professions
of good will and kindness, but thus
far see no practical result. How
ever apologetic and explanatory
the brutal men may be in trying to
give reasons for 'the way it hap
pened," they are naturally at pres
ent trihe resentful. They say,
as did certain other offended
party:
1T is all very we'll to dissemble your love,
But why should you kick me downstairsi"
While Iowa was engaged in this
murder of the female suffrage
movement Massachusetts was car-i
rying on the same sort of obsequies.
The proposition, like an old famil-
lar friend, came before the house
of representatives at Boston few
days ago, and was promptly, pain
lessly ard decorously executed.
This sort of thing las been 60
ing on for years, and yet among a
certain class of good women in the
Back Bay district "hope springs
eternal in the human breast"
Last week the cermonies were
all gone through with in the most
careful and proper manner. The
usual speeches in favor of female
suffrage were made and the Gus
tomary little ones were offered up
against it. Both were dull and
perfunctory. Then the vote was
taken, and it was 137 against fe-
male suffrage and 40 in its favor.
This is about the vote that ex-
presses the opinion of the legis-
lators year after year. The expec-
ted again happened.
The funeral, however, was decent
and carried on with all the propri-
cites. After 1t was completed the
flowers were removed and legisla-
ton went on as though nothing
unusual had occurred. This event
is looked for regularly in Massa-
chusetts, and the only satisfactory
thing about it is that the vote re-
mains always the same, and very
little time of the legislator is taken
up in the regulation ceremony.
From all of which it would ap-
pear that our friends in the East
do not yet grasp the tremendous
advantages of woman's suffrage,
which have made of Wyoming and
Colorado such splendid, advanced
and politically pure common

DANGER NOW TRANSFERRED.
Territory in Mississippi Lowlands
rlooded and the Danger Line
Reached in Missouri.

Keokuk, Ia, July 16.-The flood Ian
ger has been transferred from the Des
Moines valley to the Mississippi low
lands for 70 miles in Missouri. The Des
Moines river, after a further rise of 20
inches, was stationary this evening.
The Mississippi rose a foot and a half
in u hours today.
Advices from down the Mississippi
river report the water tapping the low
lands on the Missouri side, and terri
tory many miles in extent and includ-
ing large cornfields are already flooded.
The danger line is already reached and
a rise coming from here will cause
havoc. The damage caused b. the Des
Moines river flood is estimated at 500
600 in this vicinity. The damage up the
Des Moines river runs into hundreds of
thousands. The inhabitants of Belfast
have been compelled to flee to the high
lands.

Chicago, July ia combination of
groceries, organized substantially along
the lines advocated by James B. For
gan. for the consolidation of country
banks. has been effected by Chicago
capitalists.
Incorporation papers for the combine,
which threatens ultimately to invade
Chicago and buy up one or more of the
large concerns in this city, will be filed
in New Jersey today. The new COM
pany will begin operations with a capt.
talization of s., 900, 900, of which $780,
600 already has been subscribed.
Harlow n. Higinbotham is president
Of the corporation, which will be known
as the National Grocer company. Frank
C. Let's, the first vice president, is pres
ident of the Western Grocer company,
which controls and operates nine whole
sale houses in Iowa, Missouri, Kansas
and Minnesota.
Although the plans of the organ
izers do not contemplate the immediate
absorption of any of the big Chicago
wholesale grocery companies, it is not
denied that this purpose is a part of
the ultimate design. Chicago will be
the central distributing point for the
supplies sent to the houses in the COM
bine.
The National Grocer company will
buy direct from the importers, manu-
facturers and sugar refineries, and al
so will make direct importations
through the Chicago Office. Little, if
any. green groceries will be handled, so
that the combination will have prac-
tically no effect On the farm product
and commission houses, although some
of the ~by-productS of the farm, such as
butter and eggs, will be handled.
The company either will lease or
erect a large supply house and a cold
storage plant in Chicago, and the plans
also include the building and operating
of a large manufacturing house, where
the concern will manufacture many OF
its own groceries. The capital has been
largely subscribed in Chicago. AL
though the amount paid up to date is
$500 900, the remainder of the $1,000
600 will be taken up as rapidly as it is
needed.
