Three German Nations.

ea Consul Deidreich, who represents the United States at Berlin, struck the keynote when in a speech at Ere men he said that Germany, Great Bri- tain and the United States were nat ural allies, constituting a dreibund ''created by heaven and not by the arts of diplomacy" Tn other words, blood is thicker than water
 The backbone of the three nations is essentially alike in race and origin, but in institutions and traditions they are unlike. The common language has been lost, but in origin all are Teutonic. at least so far as the back bone of each is concerned. The Angles and the Saxons came from the shore districts of the Baltic, and the BOG. .000 early settlers of this coun- try were the descendants of those Teutons. The descendants of those 300. .000 emigrants from the mouths of the Meser and the Elbe via England own and control this country, and they have owned and controlled it ever since the thirteen colonies were founded.
 And it is a remarkable fact that the three Teutonic nations of this world present today the best of the worlds best in every line of human achieve ment or endeavor. They think deeper especially in Germany; they are more enterprising - especially in America; they have given to the world a finer literature-especially in Great Britain; they sail the seas, col onize the earth, and push progress and a high civilization wherever they go. Each and all are essentially self governing, and 1t is a question as tt which affords the most power Not a dollar of public money can be voted away in any one of the three coun tries except WllH Iue cohSeht oi ehe direct representatives of the people
 If the three, as Consul Dietrich sug gested, could be combined in bene ficial dreibund nothing could stand against them; and perhaps at some distant day when the stupid Slav has become in his stubborn way very in solent and aggressive it may be nec- essary and all-important to the worlds welfare that the three great Teutonic branches should be organized into an irrisistible and all powerful dreibund. In the long run the world will be dominated, if not owned, by the Slavs and Teutons, with some possibilities dn reconstructed John Chinaman.

EACH AND ALL.

By Ralph Waldo Emerson. Little thinks, in the field, yon red-cloaked
 clown, , Of thee from the hilltop looking down; The heifer that lows in the upland farm, Far-heard, lows not thine ear to charm; The sexton, tolling his bell at noon, Deems not that great Napoleon Stops his horse and lists with delight. Whilst his files sweep round yon Alpine
 height;
 Nor knowest thou what argument Thy life to thy neighbours creed has lent. All are needed by each one; Nothing is fair or good alone. thought the sparrow's note from heaven, Singing at dawn on the alder bough; I brought him home, in his nest, at even; He sings the song, but it pleases not now, For I did not bring home the river and

 He sang to my ear-they sang to my eye. The delicate shells lay on the shore; The bubbles of the latest wave Fresh pearls to their enamel gave: And the believing of the savage sea Greeted their safe escape to me. wiped away the weeds and foam, fetched my sea-born treasures home: But the poor, unslghtly. noisome things Had left their beauty on the shore, With the sun, and the sand. and the wild
 uproar.
 The lover watched his graceful maid. As mid the virgin train she strayed, Nor knew her beauty's best attire Was woven still by the snow-white choir. At last she came to his hermitage Like the bird from the woodlands to the

 The gay enchantment was undone, A gentle wife, but fairy none Then I said q covet truth; Beauty is unripe with the games of

ToIstoI's Books.

''The extreme illness of Count Toistoi has excited renewed interest in the fam ous Russian communist and man of letters but comparatively few young persons who discuss his character and his books have read any of his works" said a member of a literary club last night.
 "The English translation of Tolstoi's Kreutzer Sonata, published about fifteen years ago. had a large sale in this coun- try. It was considered one of the strong est of his novels of love and passion. As production of art, however. 1t was so far below its namesake, Beethoven's Kreutzer Sonata, that musically educated readers were greatly disappointed in 1t. There have been few calls for Tolstofs books in recent years, but the death or the author will doubtless start demand for them"

REFLECTIONS OF A BACHELOR
From the New York Press

From the NeW ' OrK Press.
 The time to retire from business de- pends not so much on your age as your dollars.
 The real meaning of competition Is that somebody Is after your scalp and you are trying to keep him from getting it.
 A man who wouldn't kiss a pretty girl If he got the chance wouldn't take a peep into heaven if somebody left the gates open.
 No woman would smuggle unless she were coming back from Europe.
 Women will never understand that to a man a woman's gown looks pretty if she does. but that if she doesn't he can't see anything pretty in the gown

SENATOR MORGAN OF ALABAMA

From the New York Times.
 There Is one fact known to all men about John T. Morgan of Alabama. He does want an isthmian canal, believes in It. has given years of study to the pro Ject and has put his heart and soul into the vast labors he has performed for it's achievement
 That cannot be said of some of the men in public and private station who are ostentatiously active in canal dis cussions. Senator Morgan does not ad- vocate the Nicaragua route with the evil motive of heading off the Panama canal nor oppose the Panama route be- cause he is opposed to any and all canals.
 Persons of a sanguine temperament and cheerful optimism still expect, we suppose, that the canal undertaking will be further advanced at the close of the present session of Congress than it was when Congress met on December 9.

Wanted After All.

Last week Marshal O'Rourke arrested
two men whom he thought might be the
Denver holdups and murderers. Upon
receiving a description of them he
found that the men in custody did not
bear any resemblance, and accordingly
the suspects were released. Last Sunday
the marshal received letter from the
district attorney of Crested Butte, asking
for complete description of the men.
The same was sent and on Tuesday of
this week an answer was received asking
that they be again arrested as they
were wanted for robbing a store at that
place. Eighteen suits of clothes were
taken, forty-fve pairs of pants and two
overcoats. The alleged thieves are sup

five miles from the nearest town. Mr.
Larson says. al am favored with the
custom of farmers within a radius of
thirty miles, to many of whom have
supplied Chamberlain remedies. All
testify to their value in a household where
doctors advice is almost out of the
question. Within one mile of my store
the population is perhaps sixty. OF these,
within the past twelve months, no less
than fourteen have been absolutely cured

Needed Improvement.

The new bridge leading to the Troca-
dero will be completed some time today.
This will be great improvement over
the old manner of gaining entrance to the
building. Since the Trocadero has been
enclosed, it presents a much better ap-
pearance for the winter months. What
is now needed is a stage, and if such an
Improvement was made, the people of
Idaho Springs could rest assured of hav-
ing first class attractions visit us. The
building could be put in shape at COM
paratively little cost. A stage could be
built in sections, and then when more
room was needed it could be placed to
one side. By making such an improve
provement the management of the insti-
tuition would receive the best wishes and
support Of nearly every resident of this
