Judge Hogg May Be Candidate for Governor.

Congressman Hogg has announced
that he will not be candidate again.
Mr.. Hogg has represented this, the
second district, in congress two terms.
He has made an excellent representa-
tive and first-class clean record.
He doesn't like many of the troubles
and annoyances a congressman is sub
ject to and prefers to retire and de-
vote his time TO the practice of law.
His letter to the chairman of the
congressional committee is as follows:
Denver, Colo, July 20, 1906.
"Hon. Robert Kerr, Chairman Repub-
lican Congressional Committee Sec
ond District, Colorado Springs, Colo.
my Dear Judge:-Reasons wholly
personal to myself impel me to say

gress before the next Republican con-

thank you, the party, and through you
the entire committee for your efforts
in the past in my behalf, and above
all to the good people of the district
for their very great kindness to me.
1 shall at all times hold myself in
readiness to do what l can for the
principles of true Republicanism.
Sincerely yours,

SHOULD HAVE A STATE
RAILROAD COMMISSION

In response to invitations issued by
the Pueblo Business Mems Association
representatives from large number of
cities and commercial bodies of Col
orado met in the rooms of the Bust
ness Mems Association in Pueblo on
May Is, to consider the need OF estab-
fishing in this state by law a state
railroad commission to have power to
adjust railroad rates within the state.
The convention Immediately got to
business by choosing Messrs. G. L. l..
Gam of Pueblo, chairman, and e. w.
Palmer, secretary. After appointing
committees on credentials and reso-
lutions, a general discussion of the
railroad situation in Colorado took
place and was participated in by prac-
tically every delegate to the conven-
ton. The report of the committee on
resolutions was presented and after
much discussion was adopted. The
resolutions as adopted are herewith
appended.
The real work of making such
law HOW DGlOIG l1t Duhl-
ness men of the state. The need of
electing men to the legislature who
will work for and vote for an adequate
railroad bill is apparent to every
friend of this much needed reform.
The delegates from the Pueblo Bus
mess Mems Association at the con-
vention agreed to see that the Pueblo
Business Mems Association would
draft a comprehensive railroad bill,
based on the resolutions passed by the
convention. This measure will be pre-
pared and presented to the legislature
in due season.
We beg to remind the people of Col
orado that the movement for control
of railway rates is not confined to
Colorado. Texas, Minnesota, Kansas,
Nebraska, Massachusetts,, Missouri,
Iowa, California and dozen
other states have for a long period of
missions large measure of control
over the railroads for the protection of
the public,
The congress just closed has wit
messed great legislative battle over
this question and victory has been
achieved which in its ultimate results
will more fully protect the public on
Interstate commerce. 1t Is time the
people of Colorado were waking up.
Are you aware there is not single
measure in the statutes of this state
which protects the citizen against
railway exactness?
Copies of this letter and resolutions
are being forwarded the press, to all
the commercial bodies of the state
and to a large number of business
men. We would suggest that the var
ious commercial bodies of this state
pass resolutions favoring state
railroad commission and secure ia
yorable mention of the resolutions and
OF the proposed law by the press OF
the various counties OF the state; and
that the press generally give the ben
efits to be derived from the law pub
licity in order that the people may

Asthma Sufferers Should Know This

Grateful Hospital Patient.

sick and a stranger" John Nc
Kiado, a native Armenian, has set an
example that many a citizen of Salem,
possessed of far more ample means
than he would do well to follow, says
the News of that city. Long a suf-
ferer, his lin ess at last assumed a
critical stage and he asked permits
sion to the Salem hospital.
He was readily taken. and every
thing was done for his comfort. 1t
was apparent, however, that he was
thoroughly appreciative of the atten'
lions of those who had him in charge,
although he was a perfect stranger to
everyone. Realizing that he had but a
short time to live, he expressed a de-
sire that his doctors and his funeral
expenses should be paid, and made a
further earnest request of the hospital
trustees to accept a donation of $50
for the use of the institution.
Many thousands of dollars have
been poured forth for the Salem hos
pital, with the result that Salem is
blessed with the splendid institution
of which it is so proud to-day. Surely
among its generous benefactors the
name of John McKiado, this humble
nan from a far country, deserves an
honored place.-Boston Globe.

CINE, District Foreman Sullivan, who
is one of the best posted locomotive
men in the west, said this morning:
The simple engine has the adj
vantage of the compounds of the
1900, 1900 and 1900 class here in the
fact that it weighs about 10000 pounds
more on its drivers, the cylinders are
larger, the boiler has greater capacity
and there is room for more coal and
waetr. Given a compound engine of
the same capacity in all her parts, in
my opinion, the latter would walk all
around the simple engine, The com.
