Stockmen
ST. LOUIS EXPOSITION 70 MARK
GREAT IMPROVEMENTS IN
STOCKRAlSlNG.

The February number Of the
Worlds Fair Bulletin. a magazine de,
voted to the Louisiana Purchase Elk
position, publishes an article review
ing the work of the Worlds Fair de
partment of Live Stock to the first Of
this year. Regarding the importance
of the Worlds Fair live stock show
this article says:
The live stock interests Of the
world are certain to mark the univer,
sal exposition of 1904 as a distinct
era in the history of improved stock
breeding. The first u for this is
in the entirety new but eminently fit
ting basis upon which The
exposition management has placed
its recognition of live stock. A result
that cannot but follow will be the es.
tablishing standards heretofore I'M
attainable which will be recognized for
a period beyond the memories of
many who will see them achieved in
1904.
The live stock classification has
been given subordinate consideration
at former expositions designed to
summarize the worlds progress. This
was true at least in theory. at the
Worlds Columbian Exposition, where
the live stock awards We're on a much
greater scale than at any ~internation-
al fair that had preceded. The scope
of the Louisiana Purchase Exposition
of itself called for the placing of the
live stock exhibits upon an independ-
ent basis, but this was urged forward
by the present greatness and posi-
bilities of the industry in the LOUISE
ana Purchase territory and in all the
area Of which St.Louis is the geograph-
ical center. The reciprocal imports
ance that here prevails is especially
significant. Independent nations DC.
cupying the territory which is now
known as the United States might have
built up manufacturing or mining or
agriculture in general to prosperous
proportions; but improved stock
breeding, the summit level Of farming,
could never have reached its present
status in America under such condi.
lions. The live stock interests have
a peculiar concern in the commemor-
alton Of the Louisiana Purchase.

but there are many railroad execu.

concession TO the men, which will en-
courage them to demand still more.
That these demands in the past
have frequently been unwarranted can
not be disputed. say managers, and
each concession thus secured has
seemed to incite rather than restrain
other demands. II is therefore de-
clared by these directors that to mag

voluntary contribution of this sort will

men would lay off more frequently

and that in consequence the service
would suffer.
Railroad men say that ii Is fairly
open to question whether the method
adopted by the Southern railway is
wise. II is not supposed that the sim.

deeper loyalty than at present.
One Of the Chicago general nan

The important question to which
railway managers should give their
best thought is how the personal 10y.

say that an order issued BY the gener-

The daily sentinel., 1904-03-31

An eastern exchange talking of
municipal improvements urges its CITY
government to lay square of paved
streets each year. 1t takes the posi-
uion that in this way in few years
the main thoroughfare of the city will
be paved from one end to the other.
The city referred TO. having a popula-
tion of nearly eighteen thousand, ex-
pends on its streets only Sl2, 900 per
year, and yet, with that small sum
proportionately, it has already four
squares of paved streets. At least
half that sum is expended ON the
streets of this city and we have not
one square of paved street. The fist
paving done by the city referred to
was upon two squares and property
values increased twenty per cent after
the notable improvement. The
streets were paved with vitrified bri,k
a material which has come into pretty
general use in the east in cities and
towns for paving

Protest Against
Forest Reserves.

In a special dispatch from Washing
ton the following is taken concerning
people who are working for the best
interests of Colorado:
John Charlton of Cedaredge. Delta
County, Colorado, is in Washington
to protest against the further exten-
sion of the Battlement Mesa reserve.
Further extension, he claims. will
mean ruin to the stock raising indus
try. Mr.. Charlton was at the capitol
today, appealing to the Colorado
members to take an interest in the
matter.
1.-THE land office recently ordered
the temporary withdrawal of an addi-
tional large tract to be added to the
Battlement Mesa reserve, and this
order Mr.. Charlton seeks to have re-
scinded.
''Mr. Hogg is now preparing a
speech on forest reserves in Colorado
he has been in receipt of scores of let
ters from all parts of the state warm
ly endorsing the stand he has taken.

What punishment is adequate for
such a dirty coward as the man Ed
wards in Colorado Springs proved
himself to be, is the thing that is
worrying that community right at
present. Social ostarcism is simply
one form. there should not only be a
severance of the marriage relation as
quickly as possible but there should be
a half dozen charges of assault and
battery and assault with the intent to
kill. What sort of human hyena
can a man be who would strike and
b1utally beat a wife of few days.
Such man is not fit to be part of
decent society. Unfortunately there
are many of the same kind of human
brutes IN existance. only the closed
chamber door keeps the matter Sc
cret.

Remember the Easter Monday ball
at the Auditorium given by the ladies

to be very delightful affair. Special
arrangements are being made by the

ball one of the delightful events of
the season.
VIM. Maupin dropped down from
Telluride last night and tonight will
leave for Salt Lake. He stated while
here that the past week had witnessed
considerable snow throughout the San
Juan which would generally benefit
mining matters. Activity in the i'm
mediate Telluride section is, however
a problematical proposition. as the
large proportion are not making an
output satisfactory to the management

There is an abundance of human
nature in Sag Harbor" which is
underlined for the Park opera house,
Thursday. April l7th. This was Mr..
Herne's last play and in it he has done
some wonderful character drawings.
His Captain Dan Marble is as quaint
character as is known to the Ameri-
can stage and his Freeman Whitmarsh
has thousands of living prototypes
The same NAV be said of Elizabeth
Ann, Mrs. Russell and nearly all the
other characters he has introduced in
this quaint sea side comedy Mr..
Herne came into almost daily contact
with his dlamatis personae and he
made a close and careful study of all
their idiosynGrasies.

excellent suggestion and is heartily
endorsed by the Sentinel. There is
splendid material all through for a

from eacn section should meet and

throughout the state. In many

conviction that Roosevelt had

If county clerk James and the
law had been willing to grant her
license. She came before the
county clerk today with a flush
on her childish face. her innocent
eyes big and dark, ringlets falling
about her shoulders, dressed in
short school girl attire. There
WAS in her a promise of great beau
ty when she should become a wo.
man. Her extreme youth filled the
clerk in the Office with indigna.
ton when it was learned that the
young man with her desired a H.
cense to wed her.
The young man was a decided
blonde, and gave his age as % and
hIs name as Ralph Dawson. He
had cou earlier in the day, ex-
pecting to obtain the license. and
became abuseive when he was told
he must bring the girl With him.

the father had not given his full

1t was explained to the groom
that even with the parents con-
sent the girl would have to be Is

Democratic apathy is referable
to several patent causes. tits un
questionable that Judge Parker,

The incidents of his nomination
did not help to win such States as
Missouri, Indiana and Illinois.
That the Western Democracy was
not thoroughly united on the Ma
tional ticket was natural aud to
have been expected
The temporary structure Of De-
mocracy has been swept away, but
the massive solidity of its founda-
tions remains undisturbed The
real strength of the party is not
shaken. The deeper Democratic
sentiment of the country is not
atfected-under existing condi-
tions Democrats did not listen to
the appeal TO those fundamental
convictions and profounder sym
pathies which render this country
essentially and reliably Democrat
ic in crises. Democracy thus has
not suffered a vital disaster, but
temporary reverse. It's potential
strength was not involved in this
test. The same fidelity exists to-
day in the nation that has always
existed for the principles of Jsffer- !
son. The reversal cnargeable to
apathy under agreeable material (
conditions comprehends no deeper
causes and cannot under any cir
cumstances be laid to disloyalty !
to the fundamental doctrines upon |
which our institutions rest, and |
which it is the mission of Democ- |
racy to preserve and perpetuate.
Democracy must now solidify its
strength and proceed, under the
leadership Of wisdom and caution,
TO grapple with a new condition. |

Once mora the Democratic ban .
ner is trailing in the dust Once
more her gallant cohorts have
gone down in defeat And this
renewed disasterldid not come up
on us gently, grudgingly, but
strenuously, overwhelmingly. Yet
TO say that the party were'not pre-
pared for this result would be TO
state an untruth In the breast
of every thinking Democrat there
has been ever present shadow
fear that what has happened would
happen, and hence they take their
defeat philosophically and in good
humor, which is the wisest thing
they could do.
1t is useless now to argue from
cause to effect. Evidently b Q
winning factors in this campaign
have been the full dinner pail. an
unlimited supply of the sinews of
war by our adversaries, and a fear
to have the business interests of
thu country disarranged by a
cnange of policy at the hands of
\ new Administration.
We have heard it suggested
that both the Philippines and the
Panama Canal were weak issues
and that the introduction of Der.
sonallties at the latter end of the
campaign WAS i'll advised.
The Republican majority in
Crlttenden county was pheiiome-
nal, and the PRESS accounts for it
in the fact that the Democrats did
nothing to cut down the natural
Republican vote. Not a Demo.
cratic speech was made in Crit
tenden county, not club wau or.
ganized and not rally was had.
Work and thought and KEEPING
