j. REED CROWELL.

]. Reid Crowell. whose reputation
as criminal lawyer extended over Il
large section of the country, died at
ST. Francis hospital yesterday atuer-
noon at 8 O'Clock.
Death according to the. certificate,
was due TO alcoholism. but the deceas
ed had been suffering from a compli-
cation of diseases and for several
weeks had been in very ll-health as
the result of an attack of grip. Not
many knew that he was i'll, however,
and he had been in the hospital on ly
since last Wednesday, His death was
n shock to his friends, and news of it
spread quickly.
Mr.. Crowell was born in jackson
county, Michigan, December 90, 1859.
IN the home of his youth he early
demonstrated the vigor of his charac-
ter by taking the lead in boyish pas
times. AT first, following the profes-
sion of his father, he began the study
of medicine. but later finding law
more to his taste he took up that
study under some of the most able
practitioners of his native state. His
career WAS marked with signal success
and seeking wider field he came tc
Colorado Springs in 1891.
From his first appearance he was
recognized as an advocate of unusual
ability his services having been invok-
ed in many cases where his ability full
ly justified his employment. At var
ious times he has been in partnership
with several distinguished mem bers
of the local bar among whom were
Judge ]. l.. Williams. Judge It. A.

Keeping everything in view. it can
be said that trade conditions are not
up to expectations. This, in meas.
ure, may be attributed to a remarka-
bly, backward season. The first of May
is but two weeks away. and at this
writing there has been no weather in
any part of the country to harmonize
with the days of the calendar. 1t is
a case where the oldest inhabitaut has
been compelled tn hold his peace.
The outlook for crops is anything
but favorable There has been too
much rain over the area devoted to
wheat, and. in addition. when there
hasn't been RAIN it has been altogeth-
er too cold. On account of floods and
other deterrent factors of floods and
many fields in wheat will be plowed up
and given to other crops. But to
make matters worse. the water has
hindered the farmers in other ways,
and many fall crops will be unusually
late by reason of the backward spring

GOVERNOR LA TOILETTE openly charg-
ed the elevator company, in which Sena-
tor Mosher is interested, with receiving
rebates from the railroads amounting to
$4,000. The charge is absolutely with
out foundation. The Elevator company
is milling company, and it receives the
same commodity rate as all other milling
companies. This is not rebate and no
one is better aware of this fact than the
governor. A rebate can only exist where
full charges are collected, and portion
Of the money returned. A commodity
rate is rate given millers, lumbermen
paper mill men and manufacturers, which
enables them to compete fairly with each
other as we'll as with competitors from
other states. 1t is the one thing which

Old Tree Superstitions.

The old Teutonic and Saxon races
IN central and northern Europe, be-
fore the Introduction and spread OF
Christianity, had great generation for
trees. They would never willingly
damage them. Under large trees, espe-
cially old oaks, the great councils
were held and judgment given, and the
graves of this people were found in
groves, they always being buried un-
der the roots of a tree. This all was a
result Of the superstition that their
gods lived in those trees. In the linden
tree Berchta dwelt, a benign spirit who
took charge of the babies and rocked
their cradles when the nurses fell
asleep; in the oak, DOnar, the thunder
god; in the willows all sorts of spirits,
in the elder trees the dwarfs. When
ever the festivals of these gods were
celebrated their trees were decorated
with lights, wreaths and Questen (tas-
sels), and offerings were hung in the
branches, which, however, were plum
dered again when the festival was
over, the gods being supposed only to
appropriate the best.

The Camel as a Soldier.

The camel is a good soldier, says a
London writer. 1t may be stupidity,
and it may be bravery, but camel is
as steady under fire as a tower. The
Persians mounted small cannon on the
backs Of their camels and called them
zambwahs, or little wasps." This
fashion was adopted in India, and aft
err the battle of Sobraon 1000 of these
artillery camels were captured. In the
Indian mutiny the British had cam
ell corps Of $50 beasts, and on the back
Of each camel sat a Scotch highlander
in his kilt In 1916 Sir Charles Napier
had camel corps in Sindh, and in one
day he marched seventy-five miles,
defeated a brigand chief and marched
home again. In 1878 the British used
camels against the Afghans, and the
government paid for $4,000 camels that
died in those campaigns. Many Of
these were driven to death by their
owners in order that they might claim
the government bounty.

MINNESOTA gave rs primary election
law another trial on Monday. and as an
aftermath general chorus of dissatis-
faction bordering o. disgust goes up
from press and publil throughout the
state The veteran democratic St. Paul
Globe pronounces it 'a futile law" says
it makes for the domination of the prac-
tical politician and calls for its radical
amendment or repeal. The repu blican
Minneapolis Tribune says that, while the
Minnesota law In It's conception was
doubtless IAN honest error of theory"
the .demoralizing effect Of the direct
nomination principle" has been made
plain in practice, and since its true char
acter has been revealed by repeated trial
there is mo further excuse for such err
ror." This testimony of experience
should outweigh with the Wisconsin
voter all the demagogic laudation and
defense by which the state administra-
ton, its organs, and huxters generally
are seeking to foist upon the people of
the state the statutory mons'rosity
which, thanks to the wise instance OF
conservative senate, will not become
operative unless a majority of the voters
are duped and hoodwinked into approx
ing it at the general election in Novem-
ber Voters should not only read the
law and study it's provisions, but should
avail themselves of every opportunity to
hear public discussion of it. And there
should be no nice discretion among pub
lie speakers or in the public prints in
discussing it. The time for temporizing
and clubbing is past, if indeed it ever
existed and honest, clean cut, and thor
ough discussion is imperative if one of
the most brazen of attempts to divert
the electorate to the uses of a corrupt
political machine is to be defeated. =

WALTER WELLMAN, the Unknown
newspaper correspondent, writing from
New York Of the political outlook seven
weeks before election day, says: 1.-The
democratic managers do not attempt to
conceal their belief that as things stand
today President Roosevelt is the victor:
but they talk continually of the revolu-
ton Of public sentiment that is to occur
before election day. Whether or not
any such change is imminent is, of
course, matter of opinion. Several
weeks ago the democratic leaders told
me the same thing, and warned me to
look out for an awakening that would
push their candidate to the front.
have been waiting for it ever since, and
am still looking for it. AS yet it has not
come so far as we can discover. If it is
actually coming, it is about time it made
it's appearance. The time is getting
short" Mr.. Wellman says the most ex,
pert opinion is that in New York the
chances are about even. He would not
he surprised to see Roosevelt carry the
state by 10000 or $4,000 votes and the
democrats elect their candidate for gov
ernor. AS for New Jersey there is little
doubt of republican victory by large
majority, and the same is the situation
in Connecticut. Maryland is generally
placed in the Parker column, although
it is admitted that President Roosevelt
is showing great strength with the bust
ness element in Baltimore. While the
democrats have been claiming West Vir-
ginia, their leaders privately confess
that there is no hope for them, the state
being republican by probably $4,000.
Indiana is fighting ground with the odds
in Roosevelt's favor, and If the demo-
Gratis ever entertained any hope of ILL
nois and Wisconsin they have given it
up. Nebraska will give big republi-
can majority. In the other western
states, Montana is doubtful, and Colo
RADIO, owing to the labor troubles, even
more so, although the concensus OF opin-
ion favors republican success in the lat
ter state.
