AFTER BOSS
FARMERS INSTITUTES SEMI
POLITICAL IN TONE
State Organization Doing Work
With Money Appropriated
by Last Legislature
Men Who Help

The farmers of Colorado are going
to elect a legislature full of farmers
next year. The farmers of the state
are organized and say they are going
to run things. They pay the bulk
of the taxes and hereafter they will
relegate the professional politicians
and take a hand in politics them
selves. They are after the party
boss.
That is the view of Frederick P.
Johnson, director of the farmers
institute fund, which is fund ap-
propriated by the last legislature for
the purpose of holding institutes in
the agricultural and stock sections
for the benefit of the farmers, bee
raisers, stock growers and horticul'
turists.
The institutes are something new
III Colorado. They began two weeks
ago, but already the farmers of the
state are waking up and say that
hereafter they will be heard from.
Professors from the agricultural
college are addressing the farmers
and giving them practical advice.
The institute will continue its work
until the first of December. when
its labors will be discontinued until
next February. At each place in
which meetings have been held per-
manent organizations have been
formed.
With the aid of Prof. w. L..
Carlyle, of the agricultural college,
Mr.. johnson has succeeded in getting
the institute work started and all
parts of the state will be visited.
The object of the state in appro-
priating money for the institute
work is to encourage and stimulate
agriculture, horticulture, etc. In
cidentally; the farmers are forming
strong organizations to be used semi
politically. They will be non-parti.
san, but only men friendly to the
farmers, to the agricultural college
and all state institutions in which
the farmers are interested will be
voted for. The farmers of Colorado
are intelligent. Some of the bright
est and best educated men in the
state are tilling the soil.
Besides Mr.. johnson and Prof.
Carlyle, others assisting in the in
stitute work are Prof. c. P. Gillette,
one of the best entomologists in the
country. He is telling them how
to get rid of pests. Prof. Wendell
Paddock gives horticultural talks.
DIR. George H. Glover gives practical
hints as a veterinary surgeon. Miss
Theodosia Ammons is giving demon
strations in domestic science, cook
ing. home sanitation, nursing, etc.
f. w. Besley of the United States
forestry service tells Of new ideas in
tree planting. r. G. Akin OF Love-
land. noted bee keeper, talks of bee
raising and honey production. r.
r. Bliss of Greeley makes speeches
on potato raising. State Senator j..
II. Crowley of Rocky Ford is max
ing addresses on practical fruit grow
ing. Prof. w. H. Olin, an agron-
omist, gives interesting lectures.
Prof. j. A. Mclean reads papers on
animal husbandry. Hon. e. Fl.
Grubb of the board of directors OF
the agricultural college and Hon. E.
NJ. Ammons, president of the Colo
RADIO Cattle and Horse Growers asso-
citation, are assisting in the work.

regarding the situation in Russia he
made at Berlin Tuesday. The whole
drift Of his conversation showed how
deeply he was impressed with the abso-
lutte necessity Of extending the fullest
support and sympathy to Emperor, Mich
olas, both at home and abroad. Mr..
Stead said: ~.
"The birth throes Of nations are
bloody and the old order will not pass
without much suffering. I appeal to the
American people for generous sympathy
for the emperor, especially, and for
Count Witte and the Russian nation in
this time of peril. Impatience without
or within might precipitate catastro-
phe such as the world has not seen in a
century, and any attempt to invoke
foreign Intervention would be fatal. One
hope Of the reactionaries is to excite the
national spirit against, them as threat;
ening the national independence. Bad
as are the Jewish sufferings, they are
trivial compared with the massacres
and outrages which are inevitable If, as
the result of outside interference, Count
Witte g ministry should be upset.

The Actual Situation.

WESTERN SCHOOLS AHEAD
IIarper's weekly.

The college year has begun and the enroll
ment figures of twenty-seven American unlver-
sites, recently published, are curious and sug-
gestive. These figures Indicate three things:
first that the large western Universities are out
stripping the eastern institutions as regards
toe number of students; secondly that women
are tending to monopolize those western univer-
stiles which are organized on the principle of
co o-education; thirdly. that small colleges seem
expense Of their great competitors.
If We exclude Radcliffe college, which, of
course, is intended sohlely for women, and the
Harvard summer school, the benefciaries OF
which cannot be classed either undergradu-
ates or graduates, we find that the total en-
rollment this year in Harvard university was
but 1856, as against 4,O04 a year ago. Co.
lumbia, which now has 3,725, has suffered an
even greater loss.
The one seat of higher education in the east
which shows sensible increase of enrolled
names in every department is the University OF
PENNSYLVANIA, which has $3.50 students. The
attendance Of 4049, which number, according
to it's secretary, win quickly be raised to 4,5O0
heads and is likely long to head the list.
Memorable also is the fact that the University
OF Minnesota has an attendance of 3,759.
1t appears that the average percentage OF
growth in the case of twelve leading universities
situated between the Alleghenies and the
Rockies is twelve, while the average percentage
in the case Of seven eastern universities Is
Incurred by some Of the large universities i.

small colleges partly thru less rigorous en-
I trance examinations and partly to the fact tina,
they arc offering better instruction than they

/ Painting vivid picture Of the awful
terrors that confront the unprepared
sinner upon the threshold of death,
Rev. Clarence B. Strouse drew tears to
the eyes Of the throng that packed the
| Metropolitan theater at noon. Exhort-
| ing all to prepare for the end, and en-
phasizing the uncertainty of life, the
speaker closed with an impressive
story of the terrible death-bed strug-
giles of am old stage driver who had put
off his preparation until it was too late
those who felt they were not prepared
but the response from all sides testi
fed the powerful effect Of the plea.

has been so impressive as when DR.
Strouse answered the pleas of upliftec
hands and prayed for scores.
When the singing began, only the
first floor was filed, but quickly the
space in the balcony became a sea Of
deeply interested faces. The filling
of The gallery followed, and before the
house held an occupant and the space
