the head of the state military estab-
lishment.
These are the statements of 4 high
officer of the guard. He adds that the
general will, unless he changes his
mind very soon, refuse to remain in
MS present position, and will retire
from public life for the time being, to
accept one of several good offers he
has received from mining companies.
In the letter sent by the two guard
officers to the governor they named
May 9th as the date on which their
designations were to become effective.
This was done in order that the palms
for the st. Louis trip and the visit of
President Roosevelt might not be dis
arranged. No action has been taken
by the governor as yet, but he will
probably act within a few days after
his return from the East.
Since the announcement that tie
head of the guard intended to relin-
quish the position that he assumed
only the first of the present month,
scores of letters have been received
at the governors office, supporting one
or another of the numerous applicants
for the position. All of those who ap-
piled before are again in line, and sew
eral new applicants have entered the

Indifferent to the spread of the dis
ease or the matter of dipping their cat

sas and Colorado, we hope to be able
to stamp out the disease. as that is al
most sure to catch all of them. We
expect to have a meeting soon with
the Colorado board in regard to this
matter. The two, boards are working
in harmony in regard to the matter.
and the action of Colorado should not
be regarded in any sense as an act of
retaliation. Without such action as
has been taken by both boards, there
was danger of serious trouble from
this source, but with the cooperation
of Colorado we hope to be able to
stamp out the disease this year. Dip
ping watts will be established all along
the line. both on the railroad and at
other points. and the regulations will
be strictly enforced"
