Heavy Earthquake Shocks.

Late dispatches state that heavy
earthquake shocks occurred at Val
paraiso and other points along the
coast of South America at intervals
during Thursday night, Aug. l8, and
damaged number of buildings, some
of them falling into the streets and
rendering traffic dangerous. The
troops were called out and shot all
pillagers. Many persons were killed
by falling walls. The survivors
camped on the hills and in open
spaces. A number Of people also
sought refuge on board vessels in the
harbor at Valparaiso.
Vina del Mar, town about three
miles from Valparaiso, having a pop
ulation of about 1900; Quilpque,
province Of Valparaiso, with popu-
lation of about 1900, and Limsche,

Frederick J. Downey, young man
who came here from New York some
weeks ago, in the hope that this fav-
orsble climate would stay the dread
malady, consumption, from which
he WAS suffering, died at the resi-
dence of J. L. Beavers Tuesday even
ing.
The young mans father, Mr.. Dem
mis- Downey, Of Brooklyn, N. Y, at
tended him in his last hours.
Brief services were held at the
residence Of Mr.. Childs, Thursday
afternoon, after which the remains
were conveyed to Highland ceme-
tory for final rest
Deceased was young man Of good
character and member of respect
ed New York family.
When the untimely call came he
was in his twenty-first year. He had
been i'll only about six months.
Quick consumption was the cause Of
death.
| Although q stranger here, . large
number Of citizens attended the fun
eral and every manifestation Of re-
spect and sympathy was shown the
bereaved relatives of the departed.

Age Not Always Essential.

The Democratic nomination for
congress In the Second district un-
questionably lies between DR.. w. w.
Rowan, Of Ouray, and Hume Lewis,
Of Pueblo, as no one else of conse-
quence is after it and both of these
gentlemen are not only qualified but
are entitled to recognition from the
party for past services and sacrifices.
Either one will be a credit to Colora-
do in congress, SO the constituency is
safe whichever gets the plum.
Appropos Of Mr.. Lewis candidacy
good story can be told: He is but
SO years old and does not look that,
so 1t has been questioned as to
whether he is not too young for such
an important position. The King Of
Spain once sent an ambassador to the
Pope of Rome, and while the young
man was one of the brainiest states
men in Spain and recognized Is such
he was young. The Pope was much
put outat the youthful ambassador
and said: ''Is your master the King
so short of statesmen that he must
send me beardless boy rs an am
bassador?' To which the young man
replied: "If my master the King
had supposed that brains lie in =
beard he might have sent your ex-
cellency goat"

Reckless Riding.

On complaint of J. w. Rigby, W..
Guyther, d. Murray and G. Malay
were arrested Monday and hailed be-
fore Mr.. Justice Sanderson.
Defendants had hearing Tuesday
morning before the justice but had
no attorney, nor did they make any
defense.
The testimony went to show that
Mr.. Rigby was riding down the river
road when he met the three young
men going up the road. Guyther, it
is claimed, rode his horse with much
violence against the Rigby horse,
and, 1t is claimed, tried to throw Mr..
Rigby.
Guyther was fined so and costs
which he paid. It is said, the cause
of his misbehavior was a few drinks
more than necessary. A little sur
plus ''bug juice" is hardly an excuse
for an ungentlemanly act.
The other boys were fined " and
costs, but they didn't think they had
done anything that would cause them
to figure in the case, SO they have
taken an appeal to the county court.

"Hard Sledding."

According to the Steamboat Pilot
Ike Baer's path in the race for re-
nomination will not be strewn with
roses. Hear what the Pilot has to
say:
"Ikey Baer is going to have hard
shedding, that's a cinch. The party
fails to enthuse like it should, al
though longing eyes are turned to-
ward the barrel. Solandt's friends
are active and earnest in their desire
to see the nomination go to the Hay
den man. Baer's record In the legis-
lature, where he slavishly followed
the dictation of the bosses and aided
by his vote and influence In as dam
nable a political conspiracy Is ever
brought shame to q state, overturn-
ing the expressed will of the people,
violating the sanctity of the ballot
and setting decency and justice at
naught in the governorship matter,
is enough to relegate any man to the
limbo Of political oblivion. The fin-
ger Of scofn has been pointed At our
state and Colorado has become a
word Of shame through the revolu-
tionary actions of such men as Baer.
Even those men and corporations
who profited by the shameless deal
should have nothing but contempt
for the men who brought 1t about"

have to pay the trust &28-an increase
Of from 40 to 80 per cent. The trust
has maintained the $28 rate for home
consumers without variation since 1t

above a normal amount for that time.

Do not imagine that because you
have no railroad stock, or even II you
never rode on a steam or street rail-
road that the prices Of steel rails does
not effect your pocket. In fact every
thing you buy is advanced In price
by the freight that is charged for we
cannot expect low railroad rates and
expensive railroad construction.
Then just think of the large number
Of articles of steel or iron that you
daily use, all of which are greatly in
creased in price by the extra toll the
Steel Trust takes, because the pro-
lection from competition the tariff
gives the trust allows 1t to extort
these high prices. This toll is nearly
90 year from each family, from
this one trust and there are 1888 Of
them protected by the tariff in like

Cattle Going Higher.

The w. N. Fulton letter under
Denver date of last Monday, reports
the improvement In the cattle mar
ket during the past three weeks has
been most marked. The past week
was very little different from the
week before. There was scarcity
Of good cattle Of all kinds and buyers
were willing to stand slight ad-
vance where the cattle were good
enough. Even the common kinds
have felt the improved conditions
and while buyers still discriminate
strongly against the common and
half fat, still they are selling and that
is. more than could have been said of
them a month ago. Beef buyers are
securing barely enough supplies to
keep them going and the demand for
choice cattle seems to be getting
stronger everyday. There have been
plenty of half fat and unfinished stuff
offered and these are only steady.
Choice steers and cows are wanted.
There was nothing here during the
past week good enough to bring over
$3.50, and there was nothing offered
except grass cattle. Good COWS sold
up to $3.50 with the average cows go
ing around 800 to 1926. There has
been no movement In feeder cattle
yet although few contracts are be-
ing made occasionally but the only
reason for lack Of trade is the nom
appearance of the cattle. The buyers
are here and they want the cattle but
the packers are taking about every
thing that comes that is fit to kill.
Good to choice feeders will sell at
1915 to $4.lO with the common to
medium at 1926 to 1916 and the ordi-
nary thin stuff at 8 cents and down.
With the big corn crop In sight there
are indications of a strong demand
later on but prices will be governed
largely by the price of corn.

Seventy Millions Increased Profits

How the trusts and combines are
plundering the American people is
shown by the enormous profits made
this year by the Steel Trust. Every
one pays their share of the vast toll
that this gigantic combination takes
from the grist run through its hop
