DURANGO Wants Quiet.

Denver.-A Durango special to the
Republican, says: Durango is going to
be strictly a law abiding town. The
City Council has concluded to work
with the county authorities toward
this end. Tonight thirty representa-
tive business men of Durango ap-
peared before the the city council and
asked that that body use it's power to
suppress gambling and to compel sa-
looms to close at midnight and on Sun
day. They also advocated the closing
of houses of ill-fame. The City Coun-
Gil agreed to this, the mayor and every
member expressing himself as willing
to accede to the request.
Mayor Mcconnell went so far as to
say that when a representative body
of business men appeared before a
body with delegated power and asked
for a thing, it usually got it and that
hereafter if any citizen could show
him where a police officer was neglect
ing his duty in enforcing the law he
would have that policeman discharged.
Also that if any member of the City
Council used his efforts toward aiding
the lawless element he would try to
have that councilman ouSted.

KANSAS TREASURY SHORT.
DefaIcation Amounts to seventy-Eight
Thousand Dollars.

Topeka, Kan, January ia total
shortage in the state treasury of
about $4,000 is shown by the report
of Accountant Morris in the treasury
examination just closed, according 20 a
summary of the report prepared by
Governor Hoch made public Tuesday
afternoon.
The report covers all transactions
made by the state treasurers from Jan
uray l, 1898, to June 80, 1905, includ-
ing the two full terms of former State
Treasurer Frank E. Grimes and one
term and six months of the admins
tration of Thomas T. Kelly, the pres
ent state treasurer. The bulk of the
shortage appears in the accounts Of
the office during the Grimes admins
tration.
OF the total of SIS 900. $4,000 is due
to the mission coupons from bonds
owned by the state school fund and
$4,000 is due to the loss of interwar-
rants issued by the territory of Okla
homa to the STATE of Kansas
Governor Hoch declined to discuss
any action that he might take in re
gard to the result of the investigation.
Former States Treasurer Frank E.
Grimes issued a statement tonight He
absolutely denies any responsibility
for the shortage in Oklahoma warrant
interest and says he is able TO &c
count satisfactorily for all the bond
coupon shortages except $7215. Mr..
Grimes states that he is willing to
make good any shortages he was re
sponsible for.
In his statement Mr.. Grimes puts
the responsibility for a number of seri-
GUS discrepancies on c. r. Richey, his
chief clerk.

Canon City Electric Lines.

Denver.-A Canon City dispatch
says: AT meeting of the city coun-
Gil Monday night, final action was
taken granting F. 8. Granger of San
Jose, California, a twenty-five-year
franchise to construct system of cleo
trio street railways in this city, con
Meeting Canon City and suburbs with
Florence, South Canon, East Canon and
the top of the Royal Gorge.
Franchises have been granted by
Canon City and all that now remains
before beginning of actual work is the
raising of the remainder of the $25, 900
bonus which will no doubt b done by
the end of this week.
The institution of this system here
means the expenditure of from $780,
900 to 100000 in this section and no
doubt marks the beginning of an cleo
trical trolley system which will event
ually extend down the Arkansas valley
from the Royal Gorge to the Kansas
line

Brooks Rubber Bill.

Washington. d. Representative
Brooks has introduced a bill authoriz-
ing the secretary of the interior to
lease to the f. T. U. Rubber Company
of Colorado 5,400 acres of public
lands in La Plata county, near Dur
ango, for the purpose of experimenting
in the production OF rubber from the
rabbit foot brush.
BY the terms of thS proposed lease,
the lessees will be denied the use OF
timber, stone aud other material
found on the lands excepting for use
in carrying on the experiments. The
lands leased are at an elevation of
$500 feet and are beyond the possi
bility of irrigation or cultivation. They
are covered with a thick brush, known
as rabbits foot, which the rubber
company claims can be manufactured
into merchantable rubber. Mr..
Brooks will make an earnest effort to
secure passage of his bill.

Bonynae's Railroad Land Bill.

Washington. - Representative Bon
ynge of Colorado has introduced bill
to permit land grant railroads and
purchasers of railroad lands to read
Just their holdings into compact areas,
instead of in checker board alternate
sections, as at present. The bill pro-
vides that holders of railroad lands
may reinquish odd sections to the
government and in exchange therefor
select ap equal area of even numbered
sections. In case the ianus so Sc,
lected are more valuable than the
lands relinquished, such owners shall
be required to pay the government the
difference between the value of the
lands relinquished and those selected.

HITS COLORADO
HOUSE VOTES TO REDUCE TARIFF
ON Philippine SUGAR.
REDUCTION INCLUDES RICE
Tariff on Sugar, Rice and Tobacco
Made Twenty-Five Per Cent. of
Dinsley Rate - Colorado Repre-
sentatives Vote AGAINST the Bill.


Washington.-The Philippine tariff
bill was passed by the House Tuesday
substantially as it came from the
Ways and Means Committee. The
vote was 25S to Il.
Rice was made subject to the same
tariff as sugar and tobacco-twenty
five per cent. of the Dingley rate-and
one or two changes were made as to-
language.
This result was attained after decid-
edly the most strenuous day of the
present Congress. To many amend
ments which were launched and went
to pieces in the storm of debate and
against the rock which the House
rules constituted, left much Legislative
wreckage and many records only use
full for future political purposes.
Republican opposition to the bill in
the interest of the American beet and
cane sugar and tobacco tried out its
strength early and gave up. The op-
position refused to affiliate with Demo
cratic efforts.
The strongest plea for 'insurgent"
support was made in behalf of Champ
Clark's amendment requiring the diff
ferential on refined sugar The min
ority sought to duplicate the House
record made on the Cuban reciprocity
act, but they reckoned without their
host, as not a Republican opponent to
this measure stood with them to over
rule the decision of the chair.
The Democratic substitute met with
only the support of the minority, and
went down under a vote of 231 to 106.
On the final passage of the bill the
insurgents" demanded roll call, that
their record might be preserved. The
representatives from Colorado voted
against the bill.
An effort sustained blythe Democrats
but opposed by all but three Republi-
cans, was initiated by Mr. Mccall of
Massachusetts, to commit the United
States to the policy of granting indie
pendence to the Philippines as soon
as their inhabitants can be prepared
for self-government.
The bill admits goods, the growth
of products of the Philippines into the
United States free of duty except
sugar, tobacco and rice, on which a
tariff of twenty-five per cent. of the
Dingley rates is levied.
1t provides that after April II, 1909,
there shall be absolute free trade each
way between the United States and
the Philippines.
1t also eXempts Philippines goods
coming to the United States from the
export tax of those islands.
Merchandise from either country is
subject to the internal revenue tax
of the country in which such merchan-
disc is withdrawn for consumption.

GIN SENG
INFORMATION RELATING
TO THE RICHEST PRO
DUCT OF THE SOIL.

Professor Howard of the Missouri
State Agricultural College says: Il
advise American farmers to cultivate
Ginseng. Big profits are realized. 1t
is easily grown" A bulletin by the
Pennsylvania State College says:
1.-The supply of native Ginseng Root
is rapidly diminishing and the price
per pound is corespoDdingly increas-
ing, while the constant demand for
the drug in China stands as a guaran-
tee of a steady market for Ginseng in
the future" American Consul General
Wildman at Hong Kong writes:
There will be little difficulty in dis
posing on this coast of all the Ginseng
that is grown in America.
Ginseng is a staple on the market
the same as corn, wheat and cotton
The present market price varies from
$500 to $500 per pound, while the
cost of production is less than S150.
There is room in ones garden to grow
several hundred dollars worth each
year. The plant can be grown
throughout the United States and
Canada in any soil or climate that will
grow ordinary garden vegetables.
There are two planting seasons,
spring and fall.
We are buyers and exporters of the
dried product, and grow roots and
seeds for planting purposes. Let us
show you how to make money growing
Ginseng. You can get practical
start in the business for a small out
lay and soon have a nice income.

it. Write at once; you may not see

Chicago University Wants Roosevelt.

Chicago.-Talk of eiecting President
Roosevelt as the successor of the late
President Harper at the head of Chi
cago University has become strong in
university circles. It Is declared to
have been one OF the hopes of DR.. Ear
per during the last months ot his
life that the way could be cleared to
have President Roosevelt take the
head of the university at the conclu-
sion of his presidential term. To bring
this about it will be necessary to alter
the constitution of the university
which declares that only Baptist may
be the president. President Roosevelt
worships in the Dutch Reformed
Church.
