for this resemblance and marks hlIn from
his fellow officers. He Is also not so scane

show very little slant. Like the average

charts of the northern part of Jave,
cables the Academy OF Sciences at Am.

missing link. He does not claim the
honor of the discovery himself. bu:
says that some weeks ago he was In.
formed by Dutch merchant, Van
Beuren, that he had discovered new
species of monkeys in dense forest In
which he had lost his way.
The professor started out to look
into the discovery of the merchant,
and while watching for the animals to
appear he heard peculiar half human
voice. Looking up, he saw an enor-
nous nest and two ape.like animals
looking down upon him.
The natives of that part of the
island have long known the presence
of these apes, which they call Ash
Penrizi." Unlike any other apes, they
bathe frequently and the females wear
strange necklaces Of twigs and red
berries and nurse their young, singing
words. They have, In

LOW POLITICS.

1He pnDncatl0n OF rake letter pur
porting to be from the President to a
labor leader in Chicago by the West,
ern Federation of Miners, which was
exposed last week, is in direct line
with the policy OF deception and low
politics which is now being followed
by the Democratic leaders and their
allies of the Western Federation of
Miners, Socialists, Populists, etc,
A sample of this policy of low poll
ties and deception is found in the eff.
forts these forces are making to con.
vince the people Of Colorado and other
states that mining and other business
in the mining camps of Colorado has
been paralyzed by the action of the
authorities in suppressing Western
Federation lawlessness.
Cripple Creek has not been in as
good condition for years as it is at
the present time. An investigation
made last week by newspaper man,
'HN''hthAN NuBuDlN anu WIN
the subject, demonstrated the fact
that about 500 more men are drawing
pay from the mines and tributary in.
dustries now than there were when the
census was taken eight months before
the strike occurred. Then ore was
coming from l34 shafts and tunnels,
now the records give 1876 such open
ings yielding ore. Over 1000 Of the
Western Federation miners returned
to work at the first opportunity, to
these were added 1000 non-union men
who were thrown out of work by the
strike. These 1000 men are undoubt.
edly the best miners in the country
and the relationship between them and
their employers was never more con
genial or pleasant than they are now
The output of the district is stead
lily increasing, but Notwithstanding
these wel.known facts, such papers as
the Denver News, Times. Western
Federation Magazine and other Social
ist organs persist in their policy of try
ing to make the people believe that
distress and misery prevail in these
camps. Along this same line the Den
yer News has been doing its utmost
TO convince its readers that the mine
owners are planning TO reduce wages
Senator Patterson knows this to be
false and so does everyone familiar
with the mining situation in Colorado.
The mine owners in Colorado in their
struggle with the Western Federation
of Miners were victorious. II they
were going to reduce wages they
would have done so when they had
their enemy defeated and were In a
position to dictate hours and wages
to their new employees. That there
was no disposition on their part to
take any advantage Of their employees
is evidenced by the fact that in not a
single instance where union men were
suppiahtSu py hoH'uh'ol h'h ""a sat
ary reduced or hours increased.
The present wages and hours have
been in effect for a number OF years
and has been entirely satisfactory to
the employers and all they ask Is that
they be let alone and be permitted to
conduct their business without the ne
cessity of hiring armed guards TO pro.
toct their interests,
When a political party gets to a
point where II is Obliged to use such
dishonest methods as these II Is good
evidence that II has reached It's last
line OF defense and the public may be
prepared to be deluged with these
fakes from now until the polls close.
