COLORADO AGRICULTURISTS ASK
CONGRESS FOR APPROPRIATION

Mr.. Grubb made concise and COM
prehensiye statement concerning tho
conditions in regard to cattle feeding.
and Professor Carlyle demonstrated
to the members OF the committee the
benefits tina, would arise from gov
eminent appropriation to be extended
by the secretary of the interior. Both
Mr.. Grubb and Professor Carlyle were
closely questioned by Chairman Wads-
mittee and their replies seemed to be
quite convincing concerning the fact
that such an appropriation could be
used to splendid advantage.
The committee has had the PROPOSE
ton before it for several days, but up
to the time of the appearance of the
two Coloradans before it, the general
sentiment has been rather in favor OF
the individual states carrying on the
experiments rather than the govern
ment, although the animal industry
fund will be increased by a small
amount and the secretary may aliot "A
few hundred dollars for the work.
Mr.. Grub and Professor Carlyle
gave the committee many new things
to think about the question of increas-
ing the appropriation in order to per

given much deeper consideration before
being settled. Congressman Brooks is

BIG MILL BURNED
AT FLORENCE

Denver, Jan GA dispatch from
Florence, Colorado. last night says:
The most disastrous fire in the his
tory of Florence or Fremont county oc-
CURED to-day when the Metallic mill,
two miles north of this city, the prop
erty of the United States Reduction
and Refining Company, was burned to
the ground. causing loss to the COM
pany estimated variously between $15,-
900 and 100000.
The origin of the fire is not known.
although there are several theories, one
of which is incendiarism and another
that one of the workmen either dropped
or the wind blew some ashes from his
pipe into some of the combustible
refuse lying around
The entire mill consisting of several
large. buildings. is total loss, as also
is the Florence &, Cripple Creek rail-
road depot. one CT the office buildings
and hSlf dozen small dwelling houses.
BY the destruction of the Florence &
Cripple Creek depot telegraphic COM
munication with Cripple Greek was
shut off.
This mill, which was the largest cy-
anide plant in the world, but has not
been operated since becoming
the property of the United
States Reduction and Refining Com
pay. was being dismantled and the
best of the machinery was being
shipped to Utah to be used in a
new mill which the company is con-
structing there. A large quantity Of
the machinery was stored near the mill
In sheds and some of 1t was damaged
to such an extent that it is entirely
worthless.
The mill was closed down some three
years ago on account of the men ask
ing for shorter hours and an increase
of wages. which was refused. At that
time it employed about 300 men. The
large and handsome office building
which stood near the mill was saved
The burning of the mill is large fl
nancial loos to the company and as the
insurance had expired only short

The league unanimously adopted an
address to the protectionists OF the

1T may be that considerations of

seem to party managers wiser guides in
some particular emergency than rigid
adherence to the national policy of pro-

ization can take that view and act on it
without injury to itself, but such a
course can no more he pursued by an
organization dedicated to the cause of

PROTECTIVE TARIFF LEAGUE
DECLARES RECIPROCITY WRONG

127. nearly 100000 900 greater than the
total for any preceding year, we are
unable to perceive the necessity for the
abandonment of protection in order
that our foreign trade may be in
creased With foreign trade aggre-
eating $2,500,O00,000 and steadily grow
ing, it would seem that we are already
getting n fai: share of world traffic. But
it must not be forgotten that our in
ternal trade reaches 100000. 00O, 900
yearly. To this care and preservation
of the great home market, with its
trade of 100000, 900 900, protection
stands especially committed.
I'm annual meeting assembled. We
reafiirm the position taken by the Tar
iff League adopted on January 15, 1903.
and declare:
That reciprocity in competitive pro-
ducts is unsound in principle. perni-
cious in practice and condemned by
experience. 1t is contrary alike to the
national policy of protection, to the
fair treatment of domestic producers
and to friendly relations with foreign
countries.
1T is neither ethic nor economic.
since it seeks to benefit some indus-
tries by the sacrifice of Others Recip,
procity in competitive products is the
policy of favori,ism. 1t tends to array
industry against industry. section
against section at home: and to foment
commercial retaliation and political an
tagOpiSm abroad"

Washington. Jan. 22-Eugene II.
Grub, member of the Colorado State
Board of Agriculture. and Prof. w. l..
Carlyle of the Agricultural College,
went before the House committee on
agriculture yesterday afternoon and
discussed the project of cattle feeding
in the non-corn producing states of the
West
The committee had under its consid-
Grafton the annual agricultural appro-
priation bill, from one item of which,
namely. the funds set aside for the bu-
reau of animal industry, 1t is hoped to
obtain the money to carry on expert
ments.
The state of Colorado is the first of
the arid and semi-arid region states
and territories to bring to the atten-
ton of Congress the wonderful posi-
bilties of system whereby the prod
ucts of the region. such as alfalfa. beet
pulp and roots raised on irrigated land
can be fed to western cattle and made
to yield beef.
1t is proposed to head of the vast
shipments of western cattle that are
being sent East every year to be fat
tened on corn and keep them at home
to produce wealth for the farmers by
being fed on the natural products. II
has already been privately demonstrate
ed that beef can be fattened without
corn, and government aid is asked in
order to carry on extensive experiments
and to educate the farmers.
