Pardoned After Twen.y Years.

After serving a full score of years
behind the bars of the penitentiary.
at Canon City. Jose Munez. Mexican,
the oldest convict in point of imprison-
ment in that institution. was liberated
by the state board of pardons.
At sixty-eight years. broken in
health and tottering with age, Munez
steps out to spend the remainder of his
days a free man. No one but convict
can have felt full conception of the
meaning of twenty years of penal SER
vitude. Munez has served two months
over that time, or period equivalent
in the eyes of the law to term OF
thirty-seven years and ten months,
which is equivalent to a pardon, as it
lets him out Immediately.
Jose Munez-"No. SS4, as he is
known to his keepers-was sentenced
for life from Conejos county, March 80
1883. for murder. OF late he has been
an inmate of the prison hospital, being
reported last October as entirely broken
down in health. His brother, we'll
to-do Mexican, has agreed to provide a
home for him.
Judge C. d. Hayt, who presided at
the trial. in 1899 recommended elem
ency. saying: "On general principles
| am in favor OF an unconditional par
dom
Joe Smith, Indian agent at Ignacio
was sheriff of Conejos county at the
time of the crime. and in describing it
says Munez had been drinking with
other Mexicans in little Mexican town
of Ortez. The men left town when
Munez began shooting promiscuously
firing over his shoulder and killing one
Doran. Manuel Duran, brother of the
dead man. says he is not sure who fired
the fatal shot.

COLORADO STATE AFFAIRS AND
DOINGS AT THE CAPITAL CITY
Completion of the Capitol.

The impression should not be al
lowed to go out that the state capitol
has been completed. There remains
some important work to be done for
which provision will have to be made
by the next Legislature.
A statue must be provided for the
dome and more important STILL steel
shelves and other metal fixtures have
not yet been placed in the vaults. At
present the valuable records of the
different departments are kept in
vaults fitted with only wooden shelves
and hence they are exposed to de-
struction by fire. A fire might do but
little damage to the building and yet.
occurring in one of the vaults, it
might destroy the entire contents, be-
cause the shelves and other fixtures
are not of fire-proof material.
During the late session of the Leg
islature the board of capitol managers
sought to get an appropriation for the
construction of metal shelves for the
vaults, but the appropriation was not
made.
Since however, the state can not af-
ford to let its valuable documents and
records lie on wooden shelves, en-
posed to constant danger of fire. the
next Legislature will have to make the
requisite appropriation for their CON
struction. Until that work is done the
building will not be completed.
There has been much delay in COM
pleting the capitol, but it has chiefly
been in connection with relatively mi
nor matters of this kind. The build
ing has been occupied FOR several
years. but here and there small mat
| ters have remained incomplete

State Land Leases.

Upon advice of Attorney General
Miller the State Land Board at a
meeting held June 10th. passed an i'm
portant order readjusting the fees of
the land office. The new schedule,
which goes into immediate effect. es-
tablishes a fee of 81 for every lease
of 100 acres. so cents for each addi-
tional 100 acres or fraction thereof.
under the same lease. and % cents for
filing each application and other pa
pers.
The board also adopted the United
States land office rule requiring pat
ent for every 16O acres or fraction
thereof, the fee being 50. Heretofore
it was possible to put any number of
sections in one patent. The new scale
is calculated to largely increase the
revenues of the land office.
E. C. Redman, deputy register under
the Orman administration. who was in
vestigated by committee which re-
ported him short in his accounts. was
fully eXonerated of all blame by the
board. Mr. Redman submitted vo-
luminous and exhaustive itemized re-
port of the transactions in which
there was supposed discrepancies. The
report was checked by Register Wood
ruff, who reported to the board that
every item charged against Mr. Red
man had been properly accounted for
except SIG. for payment of an out
standing advertising bill. Upon Mr..
Woodruff's report Mr.. Redman was ex-
oneratea and discharged of all respon.
sibility.

Lives of Suffering and
Sorrow Averted
And Happiness and Prosperity
Assured by
Cuticura Soap 0intmentandPiIls
When All Else Fails.

Every child born into the world with
an inherited or early developed ten
dency to distressing, dishguring hu-
mours of the skin, scalp and blood,
becomes an object of the most tender
solicitude, not only because of its suffer-
ing, but because of the dreadful fear
that the designation is to be lifelong
and mar its future happiness and pros
perity. Hence, it becomes the duty of
mothers of such afflicted children to ac- 4
quaint themselves with the best, the
purest and most effective treatment
available, viz, The Cuticura Treatment.
Warm baths with Cuticura Soap, to
cleanse the skin and scalp of crusts and
Ointment, to allay itching, irritation
and Inflammation, and soothe and heal,
and mild doses of Cuticura Resolvent, to
all that can be desired for the speedy
tured infants and children, and the COM
fort of worn-out parents.
Millions of women use CutIcura Soap,
assisted by Cuticura Ointment, for pre-
serving, purifying and beautifying the
skin, scalp, hair and hands, for annoy
ing irritations and weaknesses, and
for many sanative, antiseptic purposes
which readily suggest themselves.

viii Sue Railroads for Taxes.

Attorney General n. C. Miller is pre-

leading railroad companies of the
state, with view toward forcing them

tax is levied at the rate of cents
for every $1,000 of capital stock for
foreign corporations and . cents a
thousand on domestic companies. In
addition to the railroads, three years
fiat tax is due from the American
Smelling and Refining Company.
