THE LAW PRESUMES every man
innocent until he has been proven
guilty but there are a number of peo-
pie in Glenwood who listened to the
Shields investigation last Tuesday
who have we'll defined suspicion as
to the young mans guilt. While the
evidence was not sufficient to present
to jury in the expectation of secur-
ing a conviction there were those who
did not hesitate to declare that
Shields was extremely fortunate in
being given his liberty.

THE REPORT THAT the govern
ment will undertake the completion of
the big Gunnison tunnel is the bes
news that has reached the western
slope for some time. The fact that
the United States under the reclama
tion service, will take up the work, is
guarantee that the task will be fin
ished and it is said that Uncle Sam
can do the work for much less than
any of the bids thus far filed. This
is probably true but the most satisfac-
tory feature is the certainty that the
government will complete the work if
it once starts it.

Weekly Stock Letter

Denver Union Stock Yards, Oct. 8.
We had a very good trade on this
market last week. The demand for
all kinds Of cattle was good. There
were good many cattle here but
statesmen had little difficulty in clos
ing them all out, and could have sold
Il good many more had they been
offered. Some very good beef steers
were noticed but nothing particularly
fancy. Packers were wanting the
choice light weight kinds and any
thing of this description sold readily
at steady to strong prices. When it
came to the inferior kinds, however,
of which the bulk consisted. the in
quiry was not so active and they
closed weak, 1910 representing about
top price for the week, with most of
the fair to good at 50. 90 to 50. so. One
string Of very fancy North Park steers
arrived, but they we're contrated in
the country to an eastern man and
did not go on sale. These steers
would average 1900 pounds and were
said by stockmen to be as good as anv
ever marketed from this state. Cows
were in good demand if they showed
quality but common grades were not

brought %. 90 and very good grade

SATURDAY. OCT. IA. 1905.
ACTUATED BY PUBLIC INSTEAD OF
PRIVATE INTERESTS

The decision of Charles E. Hughes
to refuse the rendered nomination for
mayor of Greater New York at the
hands of the republican party shows a
gu bordiuation of personal interest to
public duty which is indeed com
mendable. Mr.. Hughes could have
the nomination for the asking-in
fact, without asking, with down
hill pull on the election IN view of
his splendid Investigation of the in
surance scandals, but he has chosen
rather to do his whole duty in thi 8
regard, trusting his own personal in
terests entirely to the future.
Mr.. Hughes position can be best
explained by his own words in his
letter of declination.
"In this dilemma have simply to
do my duty as see it. In my judg
ment have no right to accept the
nomination. A paramount public du
ty 1orbids it.
''It is not necessary to enlarge upon
the Importance of the insurance inves-
tigation. This is undisputed. 1t is
dealing with question vital to the in
terests of millions Of our fellow citi
zens throughout the land. 1t presents
an opportunity for public service sec
ond to none and involves correlative
responsibility. This work commands
all my energies 1t is imperative that
I continue in it. You have frankly
recognized that it must continue un
embarrassed and with unimpaired eff
cheney. But it is entirely clear to
me that this cannot he if 1 accept the

that they were too busy to waste
their time with children and that as
they did not wish to humiliate the
pupils of the eighth grade by a
crushing defeat they must decline
to accept the challenge. The eighth
grades however believe that the
Juniors and Seniors are afraid of
them. Later some Of the upper
