RAILROAD CONGRESSMEN.

Unless effective pressure is
brought to bear by the public
generally and the commercial
organizations in particular it
seems very probable that the
three congressman fro m this state,
Messrs. Brooks, Bonynge and
Hogg, will vote against the rail
way regulation measure favored
by Mr.. Roosevelt and in favor of
the Foraker bill, which has been
drawn by the railways to thwart
the attempt at regulating them.
Mr.. Hogg sometime ago made
the public statement in Pueblo
that he was opposed to the Roose-
welt plan. Mr.. Brooks in an in
terview published in the Republi-
can yesterday morning. and given
out just as he was leaving for
Washington, said that he consid-
cred the Foraker bill to be suit
able measure. Both of these
gentlemen, therefore, have in
formed their constituents that
their intention is to vote against
the wishes of nine-tenths of the
people of the state and in opposi-
ton to the desire of President
Roosevelt. 1t is understood that
Mr.. Bonynge holds the same
views, though he has not made
a public announcement of them.
The amended Esch- Townsend
bill, which is the bill favored by
Mr.. Roosevelt, provides that the

PERHAPS the most interesting
thing connected with the practice
of giving a gubernatorial pardon
to some convict each Thanks
giving day, was the refusal OF Rus
sell Boles, the convicted slayer of
Harold Friedborn, to accept, the
same. 1t is stated that the acting
governor had concluded to select
Boles, as it is generally conceded
that he is innocent of the crime
and was convicted only by reason
of the Denver Posts frantic eff
forts to get some body in Jail, but
|. Maurice Finn, Boles' attorney
called on Mr.. Mcdonald and re-
quested that his client be left
alone. He says that they ex-
pect to get new trial from the
Supreme court and then expect
to establish innocence. His client
desires a vindication not a par
don. 1t is novel thing to have
convict decline pardon and
his action will go far to convince
the public of his innocence.

BY ruling that argument in the
Patterson contempt case should
be limited to one hour, Judge
Gabbert made it perfectly plain
that the court felt that it was
much safer if the smallest pos
sible investigation were made.
An hour to present argument on
the point of destroying the viril-
ity of the press of Colorado is
deemed sufficient by the power
that seeks the end, but thank
God there is United States Su-
preme Cour, left yet.

IT is learned that the state audi
tors office estimates that all the
internal improvement work author
lied by the last legislature-the
roads, bridges, etc, can be paid
for out of the appropriation made
by the last legislature, and neat
balance OF $4,000 or SO turned into
the general fund at the end of the
present term-Hotchkiss Herald.
We do not know who is respon-
sible for the above, but if the
State auditor does anything SO
reckless as to turn any part of
the internal improvement fund
into the general fund we do know
that there will be something doing
that will be very interesting. That
fund is set apart by the United
States government for specific
purpose and neither Bro. Perry or
the Auditor will be able to divert
any of it from the purpose estab-
lished by the government. A good
many people seem to think that
in some way that is state money
but they are way off their trolley.

THE magnificent reply of Sena-
tor Patterson to charges of con-
tempt against the supreme court
should be read by every citizen.
The senator deserves the hearty
support of our Colorado people in
his brave fight for honesty in
politics and political life. He has
behind him the solid masses OF
the people who believe they were
outrageously robbed of the fruits
of last election by coterie OF
corporation parasites.-Gunnison

interstate commerce commission
shall have the power to fix rates,
after complaint and investigation,
and to put such rates into effect
forthwith. If the railway is dis
satisfied with the rate thus fixed
it has the right of appeal to the
courts.
The Foraker bill provides that
if any shipper has ground for
complaint he shall file his com
plant with the attorney general
at Washington and the attorney
general shall Immediately instruct
the United States district attorney
of the district wherein the COM
plainant resides to investigate
and bring suit in his behalf in the
United States circuit court. If
the court finds that the rate is un-
just it shall so decree, but it can
go no farther; 1t cannot fix rate.
All that it can do is to say the
rate is too high. A railway COM
pany could comply with the judg
ment of the court by reducing the
rate fraction of a cent per 100
pounds and the aggrieved ship
per would have no recourse eX-
cept to begin proceedings all
over again, by writing once more
to the attorney general at Wash
ington. 1t is evident that under
such law shippers will have no
substantial redress nor can they
force a real correction of unjust
rates.
Public pressure of every kind
should be placed on the Colorado
congressman to prevent them
from voting for such an iniqui-
tous law, which will only intrench
the railways more firmly than
ever.
If the Colorado congressman
feel more deeply indebted to the
railways than to the voters of the
state it is time the fact should be
clearly made known. If they pro-
pose to vote in the interests of the
railways and against the interest
of the people it is time the people
knew it. They were re-electt d
last fall because of the strength
of Mr.. Roosevelt and because
they were supposed to stand with

ALMOST PAINFUL.

If ever an insult was offered a
newspaper it is handed the Chicago
Chronicle by the Montrose Press.
1t classes the Chronicle with the
Paonia Newspaper and says: Zone
of these papers" (meaning the
Chronicle) wears the Iammany
brand and the other believes in
Hearst" Surely the Press has
never seen or read the Chronicle,
and until it has it would be better
taste to withhold its criticisms.
At the head of its editorial
column, the Chronicle keeps stand
ing this line: "A Republican news
paper" and it is trae to the motto.
1t is the most consistent, honest
and ably edited Republican news
paper in the country; model
newspaper in every detail. To see
it classed with such sheet as the
Paonia Newspaper, makes the
friends and admirers of the Chron
icle indignant.-Telluride Journal.
The above is clipped by friend
from the Telluride Journal. the
rat" sheet that forced all its en-
ployes to join Adjutant-General-
isimo Bells aggregation of
military hugs in order to hold
their jobs.
We observed Bro. Adams mis-
take in naming the politics OF the
Chicago Chronicle, but said
nothing as Charley was about
right. That yellow rag became re-
publican during Bryan's last cam
paign. Prior to that time they had
been masquerading a sa democratic
paper and deceiving some people
into the idea that they were decent.
They are still for Tammany we
doubt not. 1t is more than prob
able that any corporation tool
would suit them, even the Journal
editor. They may rightfully be
classed by themselves as corpora
tionists and plutocrats, ,lick-sPittles
for the capitalist class.
But what almost makes us mad
is TO have Painter speak of The
in the same breath with
the Chronicle. His offense is part
ly offset by the fact that he speaks
disrespectfully of us. To receive
commentator from sheet like
the Journal would be cause for
libel. Their bitter denunction is
certificate of good character that
should be engrossed and framed
for the inspection of posterity, all
of which accounts for our writing
this comment. 1t constitutes an
expression of appreciation tor the
highest compliments The NEWS
PAPER has yet received, viz: The
