A Plea for the Birds.

1t may be taken as an accepted
fact that the citizens of this beauti-
ful and fertile community are bird
lovers: that is, almost all OF them
are, though close observer might
ask the reason for the abundance OF
lovely song birds in some portions OF
our city, and noticeable lack in others
The reason is not hard to find: there
are few patches of berries which
the owners guard with shot guns,
with the result that where, few
years ago, the air was alive with
flashing wings and sweet songs, there
is now emptiness and silence, and
the few birds who venture near are
ruthlessly shot, left to crawl round
MANNED and suffering, or to leave
nests of tledglings to cry for food
till starvation overtakes them.
These things are all happening in
our midst at the present time, and
can Christian men and women enjoy
their berries knowing they are
bought with such price?
Admitting that birds ike berries
is it not churlishness iDcarnate
to grudge them little food for a
few weeks, in payment for the incal-
culable good they do the rest of the
year in the destruction Of harmful
insects.
We might as we'll grudge to our
faithful servants, the holses, the
grain that they eat, or go out and
shoot them for eating: it would be
as wise and sensible as to wage war
on the birds for eating few boxes
of berries.
Already the state has lost in birds
many times the value of the berry
patches for which they have been
slaughtered, and would have been
ahead to have bought the patches
outright and secured safety for the
birds. Everyone is familiar with
Longfellow' Birds of Killing
worth, :" founded on fact, and will
recall how the birds of a New Eng
land community were relentlessly
banished because OF the grain and
fruit they ate, and how the hords
of caterpillars and other noxious
insects increased till even the trees
cast no shade, and an edict was fin
ally issued for the return of the birds
and prosperity.
Now few yards of mosQuito-bar
at very small cost, is perfect protec-
tion tor cherry tree, and even to
so protect whole raspberry pacth is
much less expensive than process
Of law.
Even in Arkansas-next state

ing glasses In their orchards, and
the birds leave them alone. Try a
few Of these little glasses the chill
dren carry in their pockets-they
cost nothing-but let us have an end
of this disgrace to civilized and
Christian community. Bird Lover.

TO A111NG WOMEN.
Little Sound Advice Will Help
MANY Sufferer in Greeley.

No woman can be healthy and
we'll if the kidneys are sick. Poisons
that pass Off in the urine when the
kidneys are well are retained in the
body when the kidneys are sick.
Kidneys and bladder get inflamed and
swollen, ,crowding the delicate female
organs nearby. and sometimes mis-
placing them. This is the true cause
of many bearing down pains, lame
ness, backache, sideaches, ,etc Uric
poisoning also causes headache,
dizzy spells, languor, nervousness
and rheumatic pain.
When suffering so, try Doan's Kid
ney pills, the remedy that cures sick
kidneys.
You will get better as the kidneys
get better, and health will return
when the kidneys are we'll.
Mrs. G. H. Carlton, of 525 Will
low street, Fort Collins, Colorado,
says: l had attacks of kidney
trouble off and on Tor two years. 81
had a very depressed languor and
tired feeling with no ambition to do
any thing. If l overtaxed myself,
did much riding, or II / caught cold,
l was worse. There was not so much
backache, although at times l was
troubled with rheumatism and severe
headaches. This all leads me to
believe that my kidneys were in a
disordered condition and when read

A Letter and Its Answer.

The following letter and answer
may explain some probabilities OF the
beet sugar business not generally un-
derstood:
Johnston, Colo. June 81. 1906.
Hon. T. NJ. Patterson,
q. S. Senator, Denver Colo.
Dear SENATOR
l take the liberty to write to
you feeling that you are in posi-
tion to give me information concern
ing the possible tariff legislation in
the near future that will be of great
Importance to myself and to the
farmers Of the community.
! have been informed by the Gen
eral Manager Of the Great Western
Sugar Co. that the Philippine bill
has been defeated SO far as this ses-
sion is concerned, but he assures me
that it will be taken up with renew
ed vigor next December, and failing
then to pass tie bill he says the
matter will be fought harder than
ever In the following congress. We
would be pleased to know IL you be-
lieve there Is any possibility of any
change in the tariff on sugar, either
in December or the following con-
gress, and II SO, could 1t have any
immediate effect on the sugar mar
ket of this country?
1t is quite evident that the Great
Western Sugar Co. is contemplating
a reduction in the price to be paid
for the 1907 crop Of beets, which the
farmers OF northern Colo RADIO will,
no doubt, oppose vigorously unless
some just cause can be shown why
such reduction should be made.
May l beg the pleasure Of an early
reply.
Yours Very Truly,
II. j. Parish.

DenFeT. COlO. JUNE oo, 1910.
Mr.. H. j. Parish.
Johnston, Colo.
Dear Sir
1 returned from Washington day
before yesterday to find your letter
Of the 21st on my table. While the
philippine, tariff bill will be taken
up at the coming session Of con-
gress have little doubt about our
ability to stop it. The session must
be less than three months and with
the vast amount of business that
must be transacted in that time, we
can, as we will If we find it neces-
sary, prevent it from even being
brought to a vote. l do not regard
the passage of the measure at the
next session as within the range of
probability.
What may occur in the following
congress, of course, is problematical.
There are so many contingencies IL
able to affect the views Of congress
on any measure when you put action
a year and half beyond the date of
prediction that l would not like to
play role of prophet on that subject.
My present feeling is that there
will be no change in the Philippine
tariff until there is a general revis-
ion of the entire tariff system.
When that time will arrive you can
toll a1 uoll
While to place Philippine sugar
upon the free list would eventually
injure the American sugar industry,
do not believe it would feel any of
the evil effects for from five to seven
years after the change. Ju my opin-
ion 1T would be ten years at the least
before sufficient Philippine sugar
lands could be brought under culti-
vation, with the introduction of
modern methods of sugar cane pro-
duction, to supply the amount of
sugar that must be imported to
meet the American demands. So
long as this country does not produce
enough sugar to supply home con-
sumption but must depend upon for
eign importations, just so long the
sugar trust will be able to control
price. l do not think there is much
danger while these conditions exists,
o. those who can control the price Of
sugar allowing it to 60 any very ap-
preciable amount below existing
quotations. l am,
Very truly yours,
It. NJ. Patterson.

PURCELL LICENSE GRANTED

The license granted James Purcell
some time since by the city council to
conduct a saloon on Colorado avenue
near End street, was held up last
week by the refusal of Mayor Bunting
to sign same. The refusal was bas-
ed on the ground that Mayor Bunting
did not consider that the license had
sufficient signatures, since the with
drawal of several names of former
property owners, whose signatures
had been attached to the petition
and afterwards removed by them.
The idea of Mayor Bunting in re-
fusing to at first sign the license, was
not to let down the bars surrounding
the granting OF licenses in this city.
But the council had already granted
the license and when the mayor was
convinced that Mr.. Purcell had obey
ed the strict letter of the law, he sign
ed the license without any further
protest.

Investigating the Freight Congestion
in the Local Railroad YARDS
Complaint made Without
Intention to Cast
Reflection.

Superintendent A. L. Welby. of
the Rio Grande system was an ar
rival in the city this morning TO in
vestigate the matter of the freight
congestion in the yards of the union
station of this city. which has delayed
the delivery of merchandise for per
iods extending from several days to
three weeks.
At the session of the Chamber Of
Commerce last Friday night protests
were made to the body by many mer-
chants that they were deprived of
the merchandise they ordered and
which lay in the yards at the union
station and that it was distinct loss
to them.
After considerable discussion and
when it was said that it seemed to be
impossible to secure relief by making
complaint to the local officials, as
they seemed to be powerless. owing TO
lack of equipment. it was determined
to send a complaint to higher au-
thority. This was done, a message
being sent to President Jeffrey. who
communicated at once with supt.
Welby. to ascertain the cause of the
difficulty.
Superintendent Welby thought per-
haps that 1t was sent with intent to
reflect upon him. but no such intent
was intended whatever. 1t was de-
sired to clear the yards of the conges-
tion and superintendent Welby or
any other official did not enter into
the consideration whatever. The aim
of the message was to obtain reliei
from what was becoming a most ser
ious and damaging condition to mer-
chants generally
Whether it was the message or be-
cause there is additional force at the
station. the delivery of goods today
is larger than for long time.

ling.
O'Connor was placed under arrest
but Quinn had disappeared and of

fore Justice Byers. Yates took the
stand and told his story. He claims
to be a teamster from Montrose.

Quinn were having a quiet little game

men were not playing fair. This

can "squeal" on men with whom he
is playing. help convict the men and
