When women become so hard up
that they will sue petrified man for
breach of promise, the average hale
and hearty individual has evidently
lost his attractions for the female
sight

Colorodo's greatest lawyers, who
have been engaged in the Burns
Doyle case at Des Moines. have run
against a giant in the law in Bald
win. who is prosecuting the case for
Doyle Baldwin does not seem to
be affected in the least by the rapier-
like thrusts of Gov. Thomas, or the
ponderosity of Charles J. Hughes and
others All of these attorneys have
found in Attorney Baldwin a foeman
worthy of their best steel. Probably
the contest VII do all of them good,
as there is nothing quite so helpful
to an individual as to have the be
lief that he is invinoible shattered.

Wool growers are rejoicing in the
stiff price that wool commands this
year. A fair average per pound
would be about sixteen cents. Eight
or nine years ago from nine to twelve
cents was considered good price, in
fact. only two years ago wool was
down pretty low. Sheep raising is
having more attractions each year to
stock raisers and many cattle grow
ers, who a few years ago hated
sheep worse than they did poison
weed, have swallowed their detesta-
tion of the wool-bearing animal and
are engaging in growing fiocks for
wool and for shipping of lambs,

Either the bill known as 17S is
UNANIMOUSLY bad or those who are op-
posing it so bitterly have certain pri-
yate ends to gain. We are inclined
TO give but little grace to anything
that Bill Stapleton of the Republican
advocates. and he is the bitterest op-
ponent of IT'S. On general princi-
pies it is well to let alone anything
which be advocates and advocate
that which he opposes. He is so motor
iously bad by himself. and incidental
ly his paper, in advocacy of the vici-
GUS measures that roll dollars into
the pockets of the favored classes
that suspicion rests where he advises
in behalf of anything.

A bad habit grows upon men some
times. clothed with the authority of
direction of those under them. The
men who are under direction may be
Dagoes or illiterates of the lowest or
der. These are generally handled
with little trouble. But serious OBJ
lection is met with when the direct
ing individuals meet men their equal
or superiors. They still retain the
habit of command and think that
ohers must bow to their Will But
they usually bark up the wrong tree
under such circumstances. While
their power is absolute with the class
over which they We're the directing
agent, they fall by the wayside when
they meet men who will not brook
direction from such as they.

The present city administration is
already pretty badly handicapped
when the amount of available funds
for street Improvement is considered.
About one-half of the $4,000 appro-
priated on streets and alleys was used
by the last administration and it can
be thus seen that SO much as was
hoped to do can only be touched
upon. To maintain two teams and
drivers therefor, pay for the water
for the use of the streets in the irri-
CATION of the trees and purchase suf-
hcient lumber for the absolute neces-
stiles of the city, will practically ex-
haust the fund Nevertheless. the
administration is not even discour-
aged. but will endeavor to do what ii
can with this amount of available
funds.
