CONDEMNS ROOSEVELT.

The executive board of The West
ern Federation of Miners. in session
in Denver. in its report, makes the
following statement regarding the
Moyer-Pettibone cases:
The prosecution of Meyer. Hay
wood and Pettibone is not confined
to the mine owners association of the
west. The fact that in the recent po-
litical campaign President Roosevelt
commissioned one of his political
family to leave the nations capital
and invade the state of Idaho and lift
his voice in behalf of Gooding. the
political tool and chattel of the Stand
ard Oil company. is convincing evil
dence that the conspirators have en-.
trenched themselves behind the
Roosevelt throne and are using the
at Washington as an
ally to bring about the judicial order
of men who scorned to PROSTATE them
selves in submission to the tyranny of
corporate depots.

HIS PRESIDENTIAL BEE.

The following statement was made
Monday by Secretary of War Taft re-
Garding his presidential aspirations;
For the purpose of relieving the
burden imposed by recent publlca-
tions upon some of my friends among
the Washington newspaper cores
pondents of putting further Inquiries
to me, | wish to say that my ambi-
tion is not political. that l am not
seeking the presidential nomination; ;
that l do not expect to be the Repub-
lican candidate. if for no other rea-
son than because of what seems to me
to be objections to my availability
which do not appear to lessen with
the continued discharge of my own
official duty. but that 1 am not fool
ish enough to say that in the improb-
able event that the opportunity to
run for the great Office of president
were to come to me. | should decline
it, for this would not be true"
The daily sentinel., 1907-01-03
THE PARDONING POWER.

The following editorial regarding
the case of John McGarvey. the Mesa
county murderer, is taken from the
Colorado Springs Evening Telegraph:
Gov. Mcdonald Is reported to be
averse to committing the sentence
passed upon John McGarvey, the
Grand Junction murderer 1t was
feared that the excessive pressure
brought upon the executive would
cause him to take this action.
There is no reason why McGarvey
or any other man similarly situated
should be pardoned. In prison. for
serious crime, he attempted to es-
cape and killed the jailer while doing
so. He took a mans life who did him
no wrong and who was simply doing
his duty. We fail to see a single eX-
tenuating circumstance.
The lives of jailers and wardens
should be held just as sacred as those
of other people from dangerous men.
And criminals should learn that it is
just as serious an offense to kill one
of these public officials as 1t is any
body else.
There is a great amount of loose
and almost maudlin sentiment, now
adays, toward men and women who
kill others. Their victims are hard
ly away in the grave, and those de-
pendent upon them have scarcely be-
gun the struggle for existence, when
the movement begins for pardon or
for a commutation of sentence.
The fact about it is, that in nine
cases out of ten, criminals. with their
statute lawyers. get the benefit of
every reasonable doubt from the jury
Juries always contain men who dis
like to inflict penalties.
1t may, therefore. be taken for
granted that when a man is convict
ed of murder in the first degree he
deserves his punishment and should
not be given freedom or leniency by
a board or an individual who has not
heard the testimony.

NEW LAW
IN EFFECT
COMPLAINT MADE
The New Rate Law on Colo
RADIO Live Stock Went IN
toEffect Tuesday---Stoch-
men are Kicking---Believe
They are Being Held Up.

The new rate on live stock ship
ments, recently announced, became
effective on Colorado railroads on
January 1st.
The Denver Live Stock Exchange
is considering the matter. 1t is
claimed by stock shippers that the
new rate will in effect advance the
rates from So to $40 per car. With
the service rendered the worst ever,
they are wondering why they should
be asked to pay more than when
they had good service. The indica-
tions are that the new rates will not
be calmly received by the stock ship
pers of this state.
The railroads claim that the aver
age loading under the old car was
10000 pounds. The rate was chang
ed on this basis. In other words If
the shipper does not load more than
$4,000 pounds the rate will be the
same as formerly. But members of
the live stock exchange say that the
average loading to the Denver mar
ket is about 2S.5OO pounds; that
they are compelled to load to the
capacity of the car to make their
stock ride properly. Here is where
the railroads secure their advance.
For instance. the old rate from VOL

Five years ago the state legislature
passed a law providing for the estab-
lishment of irrigation districts grant
ing privileges and imposing obliga-
tions upon the farmers residing
therein in much the same manner as
provided for school districts.
No act of government has been so
beneficial to the husbandman as the
district irrigation law. At a time
when the state was beginning to ap-
preciate fully the possibilities of irri-
CATION the lawmakers provided a way
by which the costly systems might be
constructed and the actual home
makers within the territory embraced
might be the benefciaries.
The main provisions of the law give
the directors of the district power to
vote bonds for the construction of
reservoirs. bitches and laterals and
these bonds constitute a first lien
upon the land so served.
