FABLE OF THE HONEST TILLER
All Gold Does Not Glitter.
with apologies to George Ade.)

<Ah SOio L<OCS lNOt >httchs
with apologies to George Ade)
Once there was an honest Tiller
of the Soil west of Hotchkiss,
who Also Ran in the Human
Race. Whenever any Car-Wheels
rolled his way, he picked the
Feathers off the Eagle and took
lock of Liberty's hair for Sou
venirs. 1t hurt his Feelings when
he had to dig up Filthy Lucre
tor Improvements on his Ranch.
One day a Con Man drove
past, and seeing him Clearing
some New Ground, asked: What
are you doing with the Rocks?"
I'm saving them" the Honest
Tiller replied, II always liked to
save Rocks"
Then l can help you save
More Rocks" said the Con Man;
IL can sell you Trees enough to
plant Ten Acres for Three Simo-
Icons. What are you going to
plant?"
II think l will plant Liver
Regulators and Appendicitis
Promoters"
"Goodw the Con Man ex.
claimed. my Nursery is Long on
these two Varieties, and | can sell
you all you want at Half-Price.
and when you Trim them you
will have Fire-Wood for a Year.
Besides we Guarantee our Trees"
"How do you guarantee theml p
"Why, we just Guarantee them,
that's all"
So the Con Man gave the Hon
est Tiller a Pink Slip, and sent in
his Order.
After the Honest Tiller had
pried himself loose from his Three
Platters and had planted his l..
RS and A. P's the County In
spector came along. "You seem
to be having Foggy Weather in
your New Orchard" he said.
"Yes, we have had Foggy
Weather ever since my Neighbor
planted his Trees"
when did he plant1" the c. l.
asked.
why. about the time did"
said the Honest Tiller.
Then the County Inspector
pulled out a Long Knife and
Probed awhile. "You will have
to Dig Up all these New Trees
and Burn them," he said.
The Honest Tiller went to see
the Con Man, but he was not At
Home. He wrote to the Nursery,
and they sent him Collect Tel
egram to please enclose Postage
Stamp, as they couldn't afford
one.
Next year the Honest Tiller
tried it again, but this time he
bought Continental Nursery
stock, the kind that the North
Fork Fruit Growers Association
handles, and gave $2.37 to the
Missionary collection.
Moral: The best is always
cheapest.

Tom JOHNSON. the mayor OF
Cleveland. "the best governed
city in the United States" has
conquered the street railway octo-
pus after a six-year struggle, and
it is probable that Cleveland will
have the honor of being the first
American city to own its own
street railway system. The scheme
which Johnson has submitted to
the street railway company, and
which will probably be accepted,
is identical with the plan he sug-
gested for the solution of Chi
cago's transportation troubles.
1t was rejected in the windy city
because the corporations owned
the council.-Denver News.

On Wednesday evening at the
Savoy Hotel the Denver bar as
sociation held their annual ban
quet, In the course of the even
ing Judge Goddard. one of the
judges of the supreme court got
drunk and made most disgust
ing spectacle of himself in an at
tack on the Western Federation
and their attorneys. also on Judge
Lewis, of Colorado Springs, one
of whose decisions it seems had
not pleased the speaker. He
pledged that the Supreme court
would reverse Judge Lewis. Such
talk is usually considered bad
form to say the least but as Judge
Goddard is the direct result of a
conspiracy against decency we
suppose his course is consistent at
least. The stream never rises
higher than its source.

OLD CHARGES REVIVED.
John Mitchell Again Charged With
Selling Out Colorado Miners.

indianapolis, Ind, Jan. 22.@There
was d sensational scene in the miners
convention today which was an echo
of the attack made on John Mitchell
by Robert Randall, of Dietz, Wyo., in
last years convention. Randall
charged Mitchell at that time with
having sold out the miners in the Colo
RADIO strike and Mitchell made reply,
branding the statement as lie. Ran
dali was expelled from that organiza-
ton as a result. Today a delegate
named A. +. Germer, of Mount Olive,
ILL.,, made the charge that some of
Randall's statements were correct last
year.
He presented a letter from Secretary
Haywood of the Western Federation of
Miners, in which Haywood denied the
statement made in Mitchells address OF
Saturday that Western Federation
members were taking the places of the
United Mine Workers on strike. Mr..
Mitchell made reply to. this in a very
heated statement denouHcing Randall
speech last year, branding Haywood
statements as false and citing the places
where Western Federation Miners had
taken the strikers places. He named
several places ia Colorado and cited
districts and IA and. parts of Washing
ton state.
President Mitchell again referred to
the charge that he had sold out the
Colorado strike. and was strong in his
Pronunciation OF those making the
charge. He was loudly cheered-
Mr. Mitchell said that the association
he had with the members of the Civic
Federation had always been turned to
the advantage of the United Mine
Workers of America He had not com
mitted the organization to anything
The Civic Federation was composed Of
II honorable gentlemen, themselves en-
ployers of union labor. The cardinal
principle of the civic federation, ne said'
was to maintain friendly relations with
organized galor. Tbs Civic Federation
had favored the trade agreement and IN
recognizing the trade agreement hs'o
recognized organized labor.
ssTTue.'' said he, cit has men like Mr.
Elliott. but if We all thought alike there
would be no. organized labor and no NINE
workers. organization. There would be no
necessity for them.
John II. Walker, a Socialist leader was
recognized bv Mr. Mitchell. He said the
argument was tending to widen the
breech between the mine workers ana the
Federation of Western Miners. He urged
harmony.

Taft Says No to Inquiry Regarding
Philippine Lands.

Washington, Jan. 22.=Secretary
Taft today sent to the senate a state
ment in response to a resolution call
ing on him for information as Ito
whether any member of the Philippine
commission, or any officer of the army
or navy of the United States, directly
o indirectly, owned on December /,
1905, or now owns any land in the
Philippines Islands or had at any time
or now has any interest or right in
such land of any character, and if so.
what such ownership, interest or right
is, where the land is situated, particu-
larry with reference to the location of
proposed railroads in said islands, and
who said officials are"
Mr.. Taft said: when I was civil
governor of the Philippine Islands an
article was published in a Philippine
newspaper containing an inSinuatiOn
that some mem Der of the commission
was interested i'm investments in the
Philippines. This was the occasion of
an investigation which I instituted to
ascertain whether any member of the
commission had made any investme
in land or otherwise in the Philippines
at that time. and 1 learned by personal
inquiry and investigation that no
American member of the commits
had any such investnn eflt in the RhiHp-
pine Islands. Of course the Filipino
members of the mission were
known when appointed to be the own
ers of landed estates.
with reference to the question
whether any officer of the army has
any interest in lands or has obtained
an option for the purchase of them
along the line of projected railroads
or elsewhere, beg to say that. GER
tainly z . per cent. of all the officers
of the army have been at some time
or other since American occupation
on duty in the Philippines, and that
inquiry directed to the question
whether any of the officers. who num-

mentioned in the resolution of the SEN
ate could not be answered by personal
statements from each officer of the
army under four m8nths''

degrees above until IL. O'Clock this

freezing cutting blasts this morning
from the north and is registering. "A
miles an hour. The fact that the wind
IS blowing at such a velocity and is
filled with frost makes the day seem
much colder than it really is
Wires are down in all directions and
it is impossible to get accurate reports
from other sections of the state but the
indications are that the cold wave has
spread over he state like Blanket of
ice. From reports received before the
wires went down it is fair to suppose
that the cold wave has been unaccom-
panied by snow elsewhere.
The maximum for Sunday was q

day was cold and was made more dis
agreeable on account of the high wind
which prevailed.
