wYoMINc's GOVERNOR PROTESTS.

In protesting against the userpation of
vast areas of the public domain for forest
reserve purposes, regardless of the rights of
settlers who have by years of toll sought to
establish homes in the west under the gov
ernment land laws, Governor Chatterton of
Wyoming, will receive the plaudits of the
public And it was high time that some
restraining arm was raised in protest. for
already fully a third of the entire state of
Wyoming had already been withdrawn
from market and the people been warned to
keep off. 1t is true that portion of the
land was withdrawn for the purpose of con-
templated construction of vast water stor
age reservoirs for the boarding of the SHOWS
of winter, the water to be used for the re-
clamation of arid wastes, still this matter is
in embryo and much time will be taken in
the construction of these reservoirs, and in
the meantime the doors of the state are
locked against private capital and the state
is thus done an injury
Governor Chatterton also charges that
some of the so called forest reserves are but
game preserves for sportsmen, but the pub
lie will hardly believe that the department
would be party to such a high handed
outrage.
The governor will also be upheld in the
contention that western man, should be
placed in charge of the Yellowstone Nat
ional Park, instead of an eastern man, a
nonresident who gives but little time and
attention to the nations playground.
1t is now up to the secretary of the in
terror to examine into these conditions and
Governor Chatterton is entitled to much
credit for bringing the subject before the
people.

sixty-six days, has returned to Washington
and the nation oreathes sigh of relief that
no violence was visited upon the chief ex-
ecutive. He travelled ID 900 miles, made
375 speeches and visited I47 towns; his
special was never off schedule time and no
mishaps were encountered. Of the variety
of subjects touched upon in his numerous
addresses, even his most bitter enemies can
not point the finger of de rision for his ut
terances but voiced the thoughts of mag
unanimous president whose thoughts are not
warped by petty politics or narrow partisan
views In touching upon the economic
future of the country, at Boise, he uttered
this bit of wisdom: '"The forests and the
grasses are not to be treated as we prop
erly treat mining-that is as material to
be used up and nothing left behind. We
must recognize the fact that we have
passed the stage when we can afford to toll
crate the man whose object is simply to
skin the land and get out. We must
handle the water, the wood, the grasses so
that we may hand them on to our children
and children's children in better and not
worse shape than we got them"

HANNA'S YEAR IN OHIO.

That this is "Hanna's Year" in Ohio
was demonstrated at the recent state con-
vention held at Columbus and that the
alarmists who predicted a class between
Senator Hanna and President Roosevelt
were disappointed is evidenced by the fol-
lowing excerpt from the senator's address
to the delegates. He said in part;
Republicans to-day can congratulate
themselves that in the direction of national
affairs they realized all hoped for and all
that was expected in the administration of
Theodore Roosevelt. We look back but a
few short months when that heroic young
man, standing under the gloom of that aw-
full tragedy at Buffalo, feeling and appre-
ciating the responsibility which had come
upon him and in the presence of the Amer
ican people, made that sacred promise to
them that to the best of his ability, with
his heart full of desire, it shonld be his aim
to carry out the policies of President McKin-
ley, and how we'll he has succeeded, we all
know; and we all feel that this convention
should express an appreciation of that adj
ministration.'

BY WAY OF INTRODUCTION.

Fulsome promises are of little conse-
supported by deeds. For this reason the
new spoke in the Siftings wheel is there for
the sole purpose of pushing the interests of
the city and mining camp to the front in
every way possible. To this end the Sift-
ings desires the cooperation of every resi-
dent, for newspapers, like armies, are much
more effectual when we'll supported. The
value of the mines is unquestioned, and
capital alone is needed to demonstrate to
the world that it is not only the oldest
camp in the state but the best, largest and
most safe for the investor. Every legiti-
mate proposition will be given all assistance
possible, and wildcat schemes will be dis
couraged by publicity where the proof is
produced.
The retiring editor, Fred G. Shaffer,
leaves the work for more profitable fields,
and will devote his energies to promoting
the many enterprises in which he has be-
come interested, and there can be but one
result follow his indomnitable hust1ing
qualities No more versatile
writer ever contributed to the enviable
standard attained by the press of Colorado
than Mr.. Shaffer, and in leaving the field
he creates vacancy that cannot be filled,
and his beautiful word-pictures and witty
sayings will be missed greatly. He has
done much for Idaho Springs and the camp,
and it is fortunate that the community is to
still profit by his remaining here, for there
is always something doing where he is.
That success and fortune will crown his
efforts in the field of his adoption is the
wish of all.
The efforts of the new management will
be to maintain the high standard of excel
1ence established by the papers of this city,
and being a stranger among you, time and
acquaintance is essential and to this end
we will bend our efforts.
The Siftings Printing and Publishing
company will spare neither pains nor ex-
pense to give the people the best paper pos
sib1e, and they in turn can be of great as
sistance by joining forces and all pulling in
the same direction-for Idaho Springs and
Clear Creek county.

EAsTERNERs PROVINCIAL UNAwAREs.

In the Boston Herald of a recent date,
George Ade, the humorist, calls the atten-
ton of residents of the Hub to the fact that
they are provincial without knowing it.
He says
II am here in Boston for the first time.
l may go to New York tonight, but 1
would like to ramble around Boston for a
few days. l should enjoy looking at the
old historic places, because like to prowl
around such old buildings as the Old South
church. Except for the historical interest
there is not so much to Boston, though.
OF course, it is we'll for us westerners to
come here; it is broadening and all that
But Boston people have more peed to go
west to look around than we have to
broaden here. They need it more than we
do. Unless a Boston man goes west about
once year, and takes good look at the
country, his thoughts are very apt to con-
geal so that he can't see out of Boston. 1t
seems to me that Boston people get strait
fed very easily. A Boston man gets up in
the morning and puts on the same coat; he
goes out with the same friends. They eat
the same kind of food. They all read the
same kind of books, and they get to think
ing about the same things. They get
divided into various strata, and they don t
care about the people in the other layers
Suppose you mention Topeka to them,
for that city has been in the news recently
because of the terrible disaster of the flood
The Bostonian thinks of some little outpost
somewhere, he doesn't care exactly where,
and the name sounds to him like Walla
Walla. Talk about the wonderful resources
of that wonderful state, Kansas, and he is
apt to think you are joking, and his answer
is guffaw."

pearance of any city, and every citizen
should cultivate that talent The results
that will follow will more than repay the
effort, and satisfaction in the work will re-
pay the exertion. The ~Gazette's sugges-
tions of waste paper cans is timely and
should be adopted Crossings should be
cleared of dirt; yards freed of rubbish;
fences repaired; broken glass replaced with
new; paint used literally on fences and
buildings. All these things and more re-
quire but small effort and the results are
most satisfactory. In this beautiful, valley
nature has been lavish with her gifts, and
mortal should not mar the picture by care
1essness and neglect.

To correct an erroneous impression that
has gained some circulation to the effect
that the Idaho Springs Citizens League
was formed for the purpose of reducing
wages of miners i'll this section, the officers
of the league assert that there is not an
iota of truth in the report. The league
was formed for the protection of the miner
wi o was willing to work, as well as the op-
orator and no distinction is made in the en-
ployment of men as to their creed, religion
or affiliation with any organization. The
only conditions made by the operators in
employment of men is that they give the
assurance of their determination to stay
with their employers, regardless of the be-
hests of walking delegates or disinterested
parties. There has been no reduction of
wages and this subject has never entered
into the controversy.

The following incident is told of Presi-
dent Roosevelt. Once he had to recite an
old poem beginning:
AT midnight in his guarded tent,
The Turk lay, dreaming of the hour
When Greece, her knee in suppliance
bent,
Should tremble at his power.
He only got as far as 'When Greece her
knee" when he stopped. Twice he re-
peated Greece her knee" and then he
broke down. The old professor beamed on
him over his glasses and remarked:
Greece her knee once more, Theodore.
Perhaps she'll go then"

Mrs. Leland Stanford of California has
surrendered to the trustees all the pow
ers and duties invested in her by the
founder of the great university bearing
her dead sons name. On its face this
looks like remarkable instance of gen.
erosity. 1t would seem to put an end to
all charges of empiric interference with
liberty of instruction in that institution
alfonso it might seem. AS soon as
legal forms can be complied with Mrs
Stanford is to be elected president of the
university.

The movement for a state association of
Elks was started by a number of Elks liv-
ing at Aspen, and has grown until it is an
assured fact. AT a meeting of delegates
from ten of the lodges in the state, held at
Canon City last Saturday night, the ques-
tion of a state association was brought up
and acted on favorably. This assures the
cooperation of this number of lodges.
There are IL more to take action on it be-
fore it will be declared finally carried, but
this action is assured and preparations for
the formation of the association, by the
election of officers and the selection of COM
mittees, is already under way.

The Mining and Scientific Press says:
"What the intending investor in a mine
wants to know is, how much metal the ore
contains, the amount of ore available, the
cost of mining and of reduction, and the
probable length of time required to exhaust
the visible supply. He cares little about
the genesis of the ore deposit, how the gold
or silver or copper or other metals came in
to the ore. He wants to know how to get
it out in the shortest possible time at the
least possible cost. If promoters reports
dealt more with substantial pertinent facts
and less with fancy and unnecessary scien-
tifc information, the man with the money
and he could more quickly come to an TN
derstanding."

the agitation at the school will now come

zens of the state.

FISH FROM M0LOKAI.

Within a month Honolulu will re-
ceive fresh fish every morning from
the banks about the island of Molokai,
and these will be disposed of in a
special stall at the fish market. F. d.
Walker. began yesterday the building
of a gasoline tank launch for Mr.. Gill
bert, who has been engaged in fishing
off Waianae, and recently made trial
of the fishing banks off Molokai, where
the catches have proved the existence
of a plentiful supply.
1t is Mr.. Gilbert's intention to equip
the new launch with a gasoline 40 horse
power motor. The launch under its
own power will make daily trips be-
tween Honolulu and Mookai, and into
its tanks the daily catch made from
Mr.. Gilbert's present gasoline launch
Success" will be stored. The new
launch will have sufficient speed to
enable the craft to leave the Molokai
fishing grounds at night, arriving at
Honolulu by daylight. The tanks will
then be emptied and the fish placed
Immediately upon the stall counter at
the fish market in time for the earliest
morning purchasers.
The keel of the launch was laid yes
terday at Walkers boat works The
launch will be 40 feet over all. and will
have a 40 h. p. engine. She will be
schooner rugged and will carry two
Marston sails.
Four tanks, each with a capacity of
200 gallons, will be built into the boat.
These will be separate so that each can
be filled or emptied independent of the
others. Each tank will be fitted with
valves connected with the engine so
that the water in the tanks can be
kept clear at all times thus insuring
the fish therein being brought to Ho-
nolulu in a fresh condition.
Mr.. Gilbert has made couple of
shipments of fish from Molokai by
steamer, but this method of transport
tation is unsatisfactory.
