WHAT a bright lot OF young men

their respective sheets. They
seem to have about As much OF an

have the social customs of the

the aforesaid bright ones on the
Pueblo Star Journal. in whiting up
the shipments OF cantsloupes from

unta pass through Pueblo. and
every day sees trainloads OF the

II the Democrats are successful
this fall-no matter who is their
candidate for governor, and no
matter what their platform-it will
be taken as notice to the world
that Colorado is to be henceforth
under the dominion and control OF
the Western Federation OF Miners
that William ID. Haywood is to
be the real governor. Whether
that turns out to be exactly true
or not will make very little differ
ence--the investor is shy, and he
will "have to be showed" before
he will put another cent into this
state. The result will be that we
shall be in about the same condi
ton we were in 1898. Capital will
cease to flow in; old enterprises
will be abandoned and no new ones

POLITICAL leaders are as neces-
sary as managers in any other bus
mess oTganization, but il SHOULD
be borne in mind that a political
leader to succeed must be guided
by broader motives than mere self.
An ideal leader is one who is un.
conscious OF being such excep,
that he has the confidence and
cooperation OF his fellows, work
ing for a common purpose. A
leader who ignores the rights oil
others, and assumes to dictate or
take undue advantage by reason
OF his exalted" position, is an
unsafe leader, and will sooner OF
later find support falling away.

Washington, March Important
to the efficiency of the American navy
was the action of Secretary Moody
in signing the order for the eauipping
of the eighteen battleships and armor-
ed cruisers now building with sub
merged torpedoes. The board on con
struction recently decided to omit tor
pedo tubes from all battleships There
was such protest, however. from
many officers in the navy that at the
instance of the secretary the board
reconsidered its decision. 1t is believ-
ed that the torpedo tubes with which
the Jap battleships are equipped are
responsible for the damage to the Rus
sian battleships in the Port Arthur
day attack as the Russian vessels were
hit below the water line.
