Tho Joseph Newman Company.

Greeley theatre goers have never
n ,prcciated Joe Newman as do those

Whether it is due to the 'mossnack-

what the reason, the Tribune Is
unable to say, but the usual small
audience greeted him and his really

Denver and most of the state are

After Greeley Farmers.

That Greeley is as famous for the
quality Of her farmers as for her
farms and produce Is shown by the
fact that San Luis valley land con-
Germ is trying to enlist the attention
Of a number Of the best renters in
this vicinity. The company, which
has q large advertisement In this
weeks Tribune, claims that its
lands, which sells with full water
right for from one fourth to one sixth
what is asked for land here, will
produce ~ much acre .ior acre IL 1t
has the same kind OF farmers. To
get them, it will give Greeley farm.
ers such 7onv time chat 1t practically
amounts to paying the usual rent for
a few years and then owning the

MARRIEDSIXTYYEARS
Mr.. and Mrs. Morris Hastings
Celebrate Event.

October Mr.. and Mrs. Morris
Hastings passed the sixtieth annlver'
sary Of their wedding. Ihey mao
hoped to meet their friends IN theii
home on this day and receive con
gratulations upon this remarkable
and interesting occasion, but 1t was
finally decided to be unwise to taS
Mrs. Hastings somewhat feeble
health to that extent.
Nearly SO years ago Mr.. Hastings
was born in New York and two years
later the baby girl who was to be his
wife through the long years to come
was born in Connecticut.
Sprlnging from good old Puritan
families, their careful and thrifty
training has served them well and
their declining years are hlled Win
comfort and peacefuluess. Mr.. Hast
ings was among the first to join the
Greeley colony by letter and IN 1911
he came west to view the colony ana
make up his mind as TO its prospects,
He built a little house east of. where
the sugar factory now stands then
returned to Iowa fully convinced
that it was no place where his we
would wish to live. But Mrs. Hast
ings thought differently. She mad
planned to join the colony and she
was still anxious to do so. She
hoped for great improvement In
health for both herself and husband
and that hope was happily realized.
In few months they were doing
their best to make a bare 'shanty'
on the bare plains look home-llke;
how we'll they succeeded-coaxlns
flowers to bloom for them with a skill
they have never lost, the enthusiastic
praises Of their fellow pioneers may
tell; their success led some to declare
that the soil at the Hastings cottage
must differ from that in the little
town mile away. In '73 their two
daughters with their husbands joined
them. coming overland in pralrie
schooners and driving their cattle.
In '76 Mr.. and Mrs. Hastings met
with the great sorrow of their lives;
their daughter, Mrs. Humphrey, and
her husband were instantly killed by
a bolt of lightning that struck their
little home some miles down the
river.
The many friends of Mr.. and Mrs.
Hastings wish them happy returns OF
the day and congratulate them on
having been for three score years an
example of the sacredness and JOY OF
married life.
To Mt and Mrs. Morris Hastings on the six
tieth anniversary of their wedding:
would, dear friends, my pen might trace
A tribute fitting to the day:
Add to its memories and grace
a tiny blossom by the way;
And other friends with me shall twine
The flowers of thought, a wreath to make,
And hope and JOY and peace shall SHINE
Upon thy brows for loves sweet sake.
How few may note for sixty years
The coming of their wedding morn,
And looking back with smiles and tears
Review the Joys and sorrows gone.
How few may pass the four-score line
Yet this, dear friends, has been thy lot;
Unnumbered blessings have been thine.
Through pleasant paths thy feet were
brought.
And all along the way have grown
Experiences ye needs must bear,
And each has been stepping stone
To heights that seemed above thee there.
And now that MONDAY toll is DER,
And nearer comes the sunset slope,
May still the path that lies before
Be bright with love, and faith and hope

TIE MANCHURI4y SITUATION.

Yesterday was the Stb of October. the date on
which the Russian Government long ago prom
ised 10 evacuate certain parts of Manchuria.
1t does not appear that that promise has been
fulfilled. or. indeed. that any step toward full
filling il has been taken. ON the contrary. we
are told that Russia has Categorically declared
that she will not fulfil it unless China will COM
Ply with certain extraordinary conditions. winch
are in themselves simply Impossible, and the
very proposal of which simply emphasizes the
repudisti ton of the Russian promise We are
also told that Russia is masSing great military
forces in Manchuria and on the Manchurian ana
Corean coast as if 10 back UP with force her
Reputation of her pledge. 1t has been hitherto
hoped that Russia would not thus add another
notable item 70 her list of broken promises.
But if indeed she has done so. she will have no
one but herself to blame if her word is lightly
regarded by other lands.
Yesterday was also the date set for the sign
ing Of the new treaty between the United States
and China, providing for the abolition of the
likin tax and for the opening Of two new treaty
ports in Manchuria. 1T is gratifying TO observe
that that treaty was duly signed, the Chinese
Government scrupulously keeping faith with
US. 1t is TO be expected that the treaty will
also be enforced in good faith. The obstacle TO
making it long ago was Russias continued oc-
cupation OF Manchuria and the date of signing
it was postponed until yesterday in order to
give the Russians time to withdraw from Man
churia in fulflment of their promise II Rus
STA has not withdrawn, and is not going 10 do
So il is To be expected that the fulilment of the
treaty Will still be insisted upon. Russias &C.
cupation Of. or evacuation of. Manchuria is n
matter that concerns her and China. Fulfil
ment Of treaty is something that concerns the
powers which make the treaty. 1t would be in
tolerable for any third power to interfere with
the execution of a treaty which the United
States has made in good faith with another
sovereign power.
There may. not improbably, be some alarmist
news from the Far East in the next few days.
There is no reason 10 apprehend any serious
trouble for the United States. This country
wants no quarrel and expects none. 1t does
want its treaty rights regarded and respected.
and it expects TO have them thus treated.
With such treatment of them, II NAV be salts
fed 10 let other powers work out their own
problems as they please.

REGISTER TO-DAY!

This IL the first day of registration. There
will be three more pportunites-to-morrow
and Friday and Saturday of next week. Citi-
zens are familiar. or ought TO be. with the plea
that it is their duty TO run no risk in qualifying
themselves to vote. The newspapers invariably
work that text faithfully about this time of
year. and occasionally are laughed at for their
jealous repetitions. But we certainly have no
apology 10 make for urging. now as heretofore,
the importance Of attending promptly TO an in
dispensahle requirement Of effective citizenship.
There is no hardship in going TO the registra-
ton booths They are scattered all over the
city. and lis own appointed place is near every
mans home. The booths are open from 4 in
the morning until 10 at night, so that no inter
ference with business or pleasure is involved
in registering. 1t takes only moment to com.
ply with the legal regulations, and there is no
difficulty or embarrassment of any sort in put
ting on the polling list any name which has
right TO be there.
For nearly two years. and more and more en-
phatically as time has passed. citizens of New
York of all parties have been expressing their
approval Of an honest and efficient municipal
government The fact of its general excellence
has been established. The question TO be de-
termined at the polls next month is whether or
not the people deserve to have their affairs so
administered. If they do they will keep Tam
many out In order TO vote. every man other
wise qualified must register. To improve the
first chance is a mark of prudent determination

TIE HEALTH Of OR ARMY.

The report Of the surgeon general. which
was made public few days ago, shows that
the death rate in the army has increased from
1894 a thousand in 1901 to 1919 a thou
sand in 1902. In the period from which the
latter figures were compiled there much
cholera in the Department of the Philippines.
but the weapons with which it was combatcd
by the medical corps and the robust nature Of
the soldiers kept the death rate from that cause
down to less than four to the thousand. One
remarkable point in the report is the state
ment as TO the health Of the white soldiers in
comparison with that of the blacks and the
Filipinos 1t was believed generally. when
the United States troops went to the Philip
pine Islands. that the negroes would be better
fitted 10 Withstand the climatic hardships OF
the region than the whites, and some students
Of the situation even limited at the wisdom of
an army composed exclusively of negroes and
Asiatics.
General O'Reillys figures show that the low
est figure I'm sickness and the lowest death
rate are charged to the white soldiers. There
was more sickness and a larger death rate
among the negro troops than in any other class.
Among the white soldiers the rate was II 40
2 thousand. the Malay scouts died at the rate
of 24O4 a thousand. while the death rate
among the negroes was 2i11 a thousand.
These figures 60 far 10 demonstrate that the
white men who are admitted TO the United
States service are better fitted for service in the
tropical countries than the negroes. Whether
these figures can be maintained without making
frequent changes is another question That the
climate Of the tropics has facilitating effect
on the United States soldiers is beyond doubt,
and long service in the archipelago would prob
ably have a tendency TO modify the figures, but
with short service terms for the troops there
seems 10 be no reason why the good record
should not be maintained
The chapter on the use Of alcoholic drink
in the army reveals the fact that out OF the
five thousand native Filipino scouts who have
been enlisted in the service, only three individ-
uals were treated for alcoholism in one wear
while" as the report states, white soldiers
were admitted 10 sick report on account of
their own misconduct in the use OF alcohol

The abolition of the canteen is charged by
many officers with the increase of intemper-
ance and disease in the army. General Fred
erick ID. Grant In his annual report made
plea for the re-establishment of the enlisted
mans club" on the ground that these places

taken the same ground and have shown that

were closed and now the surgeon general in

these officers by attribuiing the increase of

A REBUKE TO ADDICKSIsM.

In selecting a new United States District
Attorney for Delaware President Roosevelt has
efIaced the disagreeable impressions with whlch
some received the second bestowal OF tEau oiilce
on the Hon. William Michael Byrne Against MI.
ByrneS first appointment no serious Complaint
was lodged. His professional attalnments were
sufficient for the post he was chosen to NIL anu
his political record and affiliations were Such
as to give no just offence to partisan or rae
tional sentiment. When, however he resigned
his office TO become the candidate Tor congress
of the Addicks faction. the sole object OF that
candidacy being the defeat OF the Repuollcah
incumbent DR.. William Heisler BAH ana the
election of his Democratic opponent, Mr.. Byrne
too clearly identified himself with the rule
or-ruin policies of ]. Edward Addicks ever to
command again the confidence OF sef-respect-
ing Delaware opinion After loaning himself
and the prestige of his service as the Presi-
dents choice for high federal Office to Mr.
Addicks's revengeful plot TO throw n seat in
Congress TO the opposition, he could scarcely
expect to step back into that office with the
consent and approval of Delaware sentiment.
Since Mr.. Byrne's retirement Il lively war
fare has been waged among Delaware poll
ticians for the vacant post. j. Edward Adj
dicks and his representative in the United
States Senate. J. Frank Alice, have been strug-
Cling to name as Mr.. Byrne'S successor an
equally plant and serviceable Addicks man.,
but in Difference TO the better opinion Of the
State and to the almost unanimous wishes OF
the Delaware bar the President has now nomi-
mated a young lawyer of high character and
excellent antecedents. Mr.. John T. Nieids.
Mr. Nieds has been identified more or less
distinctly with the anti Addicks wing Of the
PARTY in Delaware, but he has consistent
and loyal party record and has never lent HIM
self to schemes 10 defeat Republican policies
for tne sole object Of exploiting and glorify-
ing the selfish political ambitions of single in
dividual He served District Attorney by
appointment from the Federal District Judge
for Delaware in the interval between Mr
Byrne'S first resignation and his reappoint-
ment This new selection satisfies the courts,
the bar and Delaware sentiment generally. 1t
gives offence only to the bitter and unreason-
ing factionists who wish to see the State be-
come the mere appanage OF a corrupt political
adventuTer.
If serious minded Delawarians were alarmed
at the recognition apparently given in the Byrne
1eappointment 10 the maligr political influences
against which they have been so long contend
ing they may find 4 comforting assurance in
the Presidents latest nomination. 1t gives
promise of a shorter shrift hereafter for Della
ware politicians who put allegiance to ]. Ed
ward Addicks ahead OF loyalty TO the interests
Of the party or the State.
