best thought Of the country is drifting
away from it. The South is and will
be opposed to it, and the best senti-
ment of the North is against 1t.
Around headquarters in Washington
there is clamor for more power in
the federal government, and people
are asking themselves what would
come If the more than 100000 miles
of railway in the United States, with
the thousands and tens of thousands
of employees, should all be brought un-
der the control of an ambitious presi-
dent and his cabinet2
Again, since so much attention has
been paid to the railway question,
people begin to see the complications
which attach to the construction and
operation of railroads. 1t takes a
high order of brains to do it well, and
requires years Of study and practice,
and It is business of such magnitude
that it requires the whole time and
the best abilities in the land to carry
it on successfully. When the govern
ment regulates railroads so that they
become absolute common carriers 1t
has gone far enough; as far as it can
with any safety.-Salt Lake Telegram

Bail.


SAN FRANCISCO. June 21.---Mayor
Schmitz's attorneys late last evening
applied to the district court Of appeals
for the release Of the mayor on bail by
writ Of habeas corpus. Sixteen show
ings are made in the petition and at
least one of them is decidedly sensa-
tional. 1t Is a declaration by his at
torneys that the mayor is suffering
from an incurable disease. and that
imprisonment In a Jail will cause his
death. It is understood that the dis
ease referred to Is an affiiction of the
kidneys and that 1t has advanced to q
serious stage.
The petition alleges that the section
of the penal code under which the
mayor was ordered into custody is un-
constitutional In that the petitioner is
deprived of his liberty without due
process OF law. The petition further
alleges that imprisonment Of the
mayor Is in furtheranca of conspir-
acy by Rudolph Spreckles and others
through q coercive power over the
board Of supervisors who have con-
fesaed their guilt of bribery. to usurp
the once of mayor and secure full
political control OF the affairs of the
city by arbitrary. illegal and revolu-
tionary means.

But we vex "our own"

You may give me the kiss of peace.
Yet it might be
That never for me
The pain of the heart should cease.
How many go forth in the morning
That never come home at night
And hearts have broken
For harsh words spoken,
That sorrow can ne'er set right.

And smiles for the sometimes guest,
But oft for "our own

Though we love "our own the best.

To undo the work of morn.

Telluride Better Than Ever.

Telluride. Colo.-Never in the his
tory of Telluride has there been
more prosperous outlook than at the
present time There are quite as many
men in the county as in its palmlest
days and the output of some or the
mines is larger and the mineral OF
more profitable grade than in former
years. Milling has a great deal to do
with this being the case because of the
fact that in the last decade reduction
plants have been brought up more
nearly to the requirements of the hour
which means a saving of practically
all the values possible to save.
The Tomboy mine is perhaps work
ing the largest single force of men,
then comes the Liberty Bell, while the
Smuggler- Union leasers are working
more men than for several years
in the past and the combined pay rolls
of the leasers and the mills will per
haps exceed that of any other property,
and is larger than for several years.
Then comes the Wagner Leasing
Company with its mines and dumps,
the various properties at Ophir, the
Alta, Butterfiy-Terrible, Columbia,
Mayfiower. Fairview, Pandora. Black
Bear, Morning Star, Rosebud group,
Double Eagle group. Gold King, Nellie,
Golden Shaft. Mammoth. Silver Pick,
Special Sessions, and the Sawpit prop
critics. and others, all of them working
forces of men adequate to the develop
ment. or in other words as many men
as they can work to a profit.
There are other smaller properties
where a few men find work. and with
all of this there are talked of sales
pending which If they materialiZe In
time this summer. will make San MI
suel county and Telluride just little
more prosperous than ever before.

Great Activity at Georgetown.

Georgetown-A marked improve
ment is noticeable on the Cliff prop
erty. situated on Democrat mountain.
The stope which is being carried at a
distance of 300 feet from the portal Of
the lower adit is showing strong in
mineral values. A body of ore is ex-
posed which measures from eight to
twelve inches in width. which is worth
better than $50 to the ton in silver and
lead. The ground has been opened
for over fifty feet in length. and in
view of the fact that this is what prac-
tically may be termed a surface pocket,
the prospects are good for the market
inE of heavy tonnage of ore.
The lower level on the Stemwinder
is to be driven ahead in order to thor
oughly exploit big block of virgin
ground. Work was suspended cou-
pie of weeks ago owing to the lack of
water at the seat of operations, but
now that the spring is again flowing
no further difficulty will be expert
enced along those lines.
The Democrat Mountain Mining
Company's new mill was again put
into commission the first of the week,
after temporary closedown owing to
the failure of the aerial tramway rum
ming from the Moline tunnel to do its
work properly. The machinery has
now been adjusted and nice quality
of ore is being delivered into the mill
bins.
Shipments of milling dirt from the
Mammoth. located across the gulch
from Brown mountain, were inaugu-
rated recently.
The Silver Leaf tunnel on Leaven-
worth mountain is being driven stead
iy forward, and according TO surveys
a lode will be intersected within the
next forty feet.

coIorado's Wonderful Resources.

Colorado is remarkable country. 1t
consists of two sections Of very diff
ferent character; the eastern part
vast table land naturally to all ap-
pearances dry and barren and the
western part vast confusion of
ranges of upheavel granite covered
only here and there with soil and bear
ing but scant vegetation. Through the
force of the genius which developed
irrigation its plains have been turned
into the highest priced farming lands
in the world. From $3.50 to 5000 per
acre is the price which rules in the
great wheat and beet sugar areas and
the fruit raising sections. The great
prices of course include the water
rights, but with those rights the land
becomes the most profitable in the
world. The mountains throughout
yield something of the wealth of the
state. Those unmineralized parts be-
ing utilized in stock raising, producing
some timber products and throughout
are scattered small ranches and farms
which yield a good living to their oc-
-cupants.
A vast part of the mountainous area
is mineral bearing and all such areas
have an astonishing value. If an av-
erage valuation should be placed upon
the entire areas of Clear Creek, Gilpin,
Summit, Lake, Teller, Ouray, San
Miguel and several other mountain
counties of the state it would undoubt-
edly exceed that of any similar area in
the world. In this would be included
the known rich mines and the unde-
veloped territory as well. Even though
all the developed territory should be
excluded the valuation of the virgin
territory would reach a phenomenal
figure.
With such condition before the
state has reached the semi-centennial
of its redemption from the savage 1t

10 VALID REASONS
PATRoNIzING MAIL ORDER
HOUSES is WITHOUT EXCUSE.
GOODS NOT EVEN CHEAPER
With Freight Charges Added and
Quality Considered the Home
Merchant Does
Best.

Copyrighted. 1906. by Alfred c. Clarh)
The reasons why people should
trade at home are numerous, but so
far as we are able to learn but one
reason is advanced for purchasing
goods of mail order houses. That one
reason-a saving of money-is often
no reason at all for in many instances
the express charges or freight and
carriage will bring the cost of an arti-
Gle that as quoted in the price list
seemed a wonderful bargain, almost
or quite up to the price charged by
the local dealer. But even were one
able to save few cents on the pur-
chase price by buying away from
home, it appears to us that the loss
is infinitely more than the gain, for
he who sends the money which he
earns in the home town out to swell
the Golfers of wealthy dealers in dis
tant cities cannot fail to forfeit in
considerable degree the respect of
those around him, nor can he under
these conditions preserve his self
respect intact.
The man who patronizes mail order
houses must have a sneaking feeling
