THE nODESTY OF GREATNESS

AS an example of the modesty so
characteristic of really great men
may be mentioned the article written
for October Scribners by President
Roosevelt in which he describes min
utely his bear hunt. As one reads
the story one cannot but note the
sparing use of cap I's-oply that per-
sonality which is absolutely necess-
ary being worked into the narrative.
For instance here is the opening
sentence in the story:
SIN mid April, nineteen hundred
and FIVE. our party. consisting of
Philip B. Stewart of Colorado Springs,
and DR.. Alexander Lambert of New
York, in addition to myself, left New
Castle, Colo, for bear hunt.
An entire lack of egotism, every
where giving full credit to others and
the betrayal of a remarkable knowl
edge of animals and birds and keen
observance of their habits are excep-
tionally pleasing features of the story
Note the delicate modesty with which
he refers to the meeting at the
little blue school house-an event
which for years will be regarded as
an historical milestone by the inhabi
tants of this entire country:
| son Sunday we rode down some
six miles from camp to little blue
schoolhouse and attended service. The
preacher was in the habit of riding
over every alternate Sunday from
Rifle. little town twenty or twenty
five miles away; and the ranchmer
with their wives and children, some
on horseback, some in wagons, hat
gathered from thirty miles round tt
attend the service. The crowd was
so large that the exercises had to taxi
place in the open air, and it wa
pleasant to look at the strong frames
and rugged, weather beaten faces O
the men while as for the women, on
respected them even more than the
men,"

1T Is PLEASING to know that all
over the country the crop reports indi
cate a bountiful harvest. The farmer
is coming more and more into promi
nence as recognized factor in the
worlds greatness. Such men as James
J. Hill, the great railroad magnate,
and Mr.. Roberts, director of the mint,
have recently paid tribute to the i'm
portance of the farmer as contribu
tor to the nations marvellous prosp er
ity, and now James X. Keene, ore of
Wall streets most succe sful stock
brokers, declares that our farms con-
stitute the very backbone of our coun.
try and with the farmers prosperous,
there is no impediment which we Can
not overcome and no ailment which
we cannot throw off. This is correct.
SO long as farming is the successful
business which it is in America today
the whole country will be safe and
peace and contentment which is now
and will continue the rule in the
country sections will permeate and
leaven every phase of our American
life. Well may we lift our hats to
the American farmer.

JUDGE JOHNSON is vieing with
Judge Booth Malone in orders to the
sheriff to close the gambling joints of
Denver. The clash between the two
judges is amusing but the gamblers
took notice of their twin ukase and
when Sheriff Nesbitt went to the
places designated in the order he
fonnd them closed and it is more than
probable that between the two judges
and the sheriff they will so remain.

COLORADO PEAS IN THE EXTREME
EAST

The shipment Of solid train of
canned peas has opened the eyes of
Colorado to another industry in which
the state can claim prominence.
Starting in modest way the Empson
Canning company at Longmont has
found its business reaching enormous
proportions. The big cities of the
East have taken to the Colorado sugar
peas and the demand is steadily in
creasing.
This demand undoubtedly will re-
suit in the establishment Of many
more canneries. The vegetables, as
grown here, are firmer and more sue
culent than those east of the Rockies.
While he has to enter into compe-
tition with the product of the eastern
states, the present system under
which the transportation Of the coun-
try is conducted permits the shipper
tu meet this competition and insures
him share of the big markets.
Under these conditions there is no
doubt capital will see the advantage
of erecting canneries for other fruits
and vegetables. In no place in the
United States do the smaller fruits,
and vegeta bles such as peas, sugar
corn, asparagus and all the forms of
pickles, grow in greater profusion OF
excellency. While the great consum
ing centers lie far to the east OF us,
their trade is readily commanded. Nc
reason exists why Colorado should moi
become great canning state, pro
vided no radical change is attempted
in existing conditions.
This great shipment of peas alread,
is whirling east over the Burlington
In itself, it will prove the creates
advertisement that Colorado coult
command In its journey from tn
Rockies to the Atlantic coast it will
bring to thousands some knowledge o
Colorado's resources.
The capacity of the cannery a
Longmont is 90, 600 cans per hour. l
the peas grown this season wer
placed in straight row they woul'
extend from New York to San Fran
cisco, double back four times and TIL
end of this lengthy row would res
somewhere in the vicinity of the Mis-
sissippi river.
"Peas in the Far East, in New
York, Philadelphia, Boston, and tn
other great cities, may be as ia
reaching in their effect on the pros
perity of Colorado as the peace in tn
Orient, so masterfully engineered b.
President Roosevelt, is factor in th
welfare of the world.

Gently sold her husband for $340 and
with the money will engage in the
mercantile business. Unless the hus-
band was a mighty sight better than
some of the Colorado variety, the wo-
man is liable to charge of obtaining

in this country who, if negotiating a
husband sale, would throw off $3U1 OF

Milwaukee, Wis, Oct. 21.-Twenty-
five years ago Willie Dickinson was
stolen from his parents at Common

only to that Of Charley Ross in prom
inence. A fortune was spent in fol
lowing clues and trails that ended
only in disappointment. s.
After all this search, which extended
over the two American continents and
the southern seas, there is a probabil,
ity that the missing boy, now a man,
has been found. Never for a moment
has the mother, Mrs. j. S. Dickinson
doubted that in the end she would find
her. boy. Today she Is hoping against
hope that the last clue will not prove
as bitter a disappointment as those
which have preceded it. !.
Mrs. Dickinson is now in communi
cation with a man in Seattle, Wash.
who may be her son. In his letters tx
Mrs. Dickinson, the Seattle man recalls

Insurance Thieues Of

clares Giving Policy

Robbery.
journal Special Service.

S sE / :
Paris, Oct.s 21.-In an interview on
the financial situation in the United
States Senator Clark, Of Mantana,
scathingly rebuked the insurance thieves
and declared thategiving policy holders
robbery. Senator Clark was accom-
panied by his wife and baby, the trio
having arrived from Italy yesterday.
Senator Clark's statement is as fol-
lows;
scandals are working mischief. These
scandals certainly give some FEASIBILITY
to Lawson g scheme. Giving policy
holders money for political campaign
purposes is plain, palpable robbery.
There is no getting around it that it is
as clear violation of the command
merit, Thou shalt not steal as any
thing can be.
RI don't care to which party the
money is given, the steal is none the
less hienions. The policy holders belong
to all parties and no manager has any
right to presume their intentions. I am
not republican, but I am quite sure
the republican party does not knowingly
consent to accept for campaign pur-
poses the hard-earned money Of insur.
ance policy holders.
fThe action Of the men who con
trolled or control big insurance com
panies is the most cruel shock ever
given to the confidence Of the thrifty
people Of America That these scandal.
should have injured American companie!
in Europe is no wonder. I find in m,
travels through the continent thai
American business methods are nov
sneered at by Europeans.
"The men who misappropriated O
stole the policyholders money for cam
paign purposes should be prosecuted.
hope the candidate for the city attor
neyship of New York will carry on
his threat to prosecute these men.

Rather than allow this, the jointist
