WESTERN INDEPENDENCE.

A truer word has not been spoken
since speech has been permissible on
this financial question, than that spoken
by former Secretary Shaw of the treas.
ury department when he said that the
West had lost confidence in the East.
The full measure of that lack of con
fdence had not been appreciated East
or West and will not be for some time
until quiet, careful reckoning pro and
con has been made.
There has been tendency, despite
the craze for Capitalization, to view
with doubt the operations of Wall
street ever since the present executive
of the Empire state brought home the
doings of the high fnanciers in the in
surance world. Recent events have
tended to make the doubt more of a
certainty.
1t will be well for the West-the
Rocky mountain region ncluded-when
it can free itself legitimately from the
bonds of the East. Sectonalism is to
be deprecated, but too much dependence
is also a grave fault. The West must
learn to look more to itself When west
ern money is used direct, without the
90 between of New York institutions.
for western enterprise the West will
flourish and grow independent. 1t has
reached already that elevation where it
does not have to be a constant borrow
err but it is still in strings financial to
the East. There prevails that notion
that all backing must come from New
York, even though the money itself
may have been drawn first from the
Great West.-Denver Republican.

BANKING INTERESTS
IN CONGRESS.

1t is clearly evident that there will
be two divisions in congress over the
proposed currency legislation and it is
also very apparent that the great ma
.jority in both houses is at sea regarding
what should be done just at this tim.
to unclog the financial conduit.
One division will be IN support OF
what is known as the Bankers associa
ton plan, giving national banks and
allied private institutions still greater
authority over the nation s currency
and credit account. These united in.
terests are powerful enough already, as
was evidenced of late when they put an

That is some of them do; but occasion

ry plants might also be protected in the
same way, but it will seldom be found
necessary.
The plants should be covered before
hard freezing weather comes on, and is
usually done about the tirst of Novem-
Der in this locality.
The covering of strawberry plants
should not be applied quite so early.
Strawberries are often injured by be
coming too dry, so provision should be
made, if possible, so that this condition
may not occur at any time during the
winter.
Good judgment must be used in un-
covering the plants in the spring. If
removed too soon, they are liable to in
jury by late frosts, and if left too long
growth will start. New growths under
these conditions unnatural and there
fore weak. They usually die when the
plants are exposed, and this results in
much damage.
Considering the high price that small
fruits usually command, it would ap-
pear to be a matter of great economy
for many people to grow fruits for
home use. AT any rate, the danger of
winter killing of the plants need not
stand in the way.

WHAT WILL HAPPEN
IN COLORADO?

1t is only question of time-and the
time will not be long coming-when
prohibition will be an issue in Colorado.
States of the South have blazed the
way and the handwriting on the wall
looks large for the liquor interests. En-
couraged by the success of their broth
ers in other states, the teetotalers of
Colorado are getting busy, and the pro-
fessional politicians and camp followers
who are forever ready to horn in where
there is a chance at the public feed
trough, are pricking their ears. Then,
it will be seen, there will be more wa
ter wagon advocates than ever known
in the state before.
: Such a situation, however may have
one good result 1t may induce the pol
iticians who have been spending their
time in bar rooms to swear off drinking
in order to get recognition from the
white ribbon brigade.
The following excerpts are from
book entitled "An Inquest on the Geor-
gia Saloon":
"The net earnings of all the railroads
in the United States will pay the ma
ton s drink bill for less than sixty
days. Prohibition Maine has more in
dividual depositors in her savings banks
than she has registered voters. The
business man prefers customers who
patronize the savings bank rather than
those who patronize the other institu.
tions. He keeps sober himself, requires
his clerks to keep sober-and he keeps
up mighty lot of thinking.
"Build a negro church on one hill and
white church on the next one; they
will sing and pray for a generation
without the slightest conflict or ill-will.

a bar, and the dragons S teeth raise at

each others determination.
"Quotation from a speech made by
Governor Smith: 1T is absolutely i'm
possible to have a permanent, decent
municipal government where the saloon
dominates municipal politics. The elm.
ination of the saloon will help munich

great deal of good in looking after the
friendless former convicts, who. with
the doors of the penitentiary or Jail

out in a cheerless and sometimes an un-

MILLIONS WELL SPENT.

Mr.. Rockefeller s gift of $2,60O,O0O
to the Institute for Medical Research
in this city. to which he had already
given 81 200, 900, is more than generous
1t is intelligent generosity.
Leaders in the medical profession are
nearly unanimous in the belief that
such institutions for pure research are
now more needed than new hospitals.
Greater readiness to work in harmony,
closer business management and better
general support would make the exist
ent hospitals in New York ample to
the present need
But the amply endowed investigator
works not only for the present but for
all time. What an incalculable debt,
to take single instance, does not hu-
manity owe to the students who have
worked out the antitoxin treatment for

lives!

WINTER PROTECTION OF PLANTS.

The majority of fruit growers in nor,
thern Colorado have become adopts in
protecting small fruit plants against
the trying winters of our climate. But
there are many people continually com
ing to the state who have had no ex-
perience in such matters, and the aver
age man who lives in town usually pays
little attention to such things, although
many would be glad to grow small
fruits. for home use Then the people
who live in the higher agricultural sec
tions of the mountains would certainly
avail themselves of the opportunity to
grow small fruits if it is possible to do
so. But it is well known that in most
places included in the latter class very
few attempts are made in this direction.
However, certain amount of fruit is
necessary if health is to be maintained,
so exorbitant prices are paid for an in
ferior quality. Most of the small fruits
should succeed where wheat will ma
ture, and if given winter protection,
some of them even above this limit. 1t
is believed that great good may result
from calling attention to these simple
matters, and it is for this reason that
the Colorado Agricultural college would
call attention to this particular subject
The protection of small fruits during
winter is simplicity itself. The canes
of bush fruits are entirely covered with
earth, while strawberry beds are en-
tirely covered with straw or strawy sta.
BILE manure. Peach trees are even laid
fat on the ground and covered during
the winter. The town of Loveland has,
during some seasons. shipped more rasp
berries than any other shipping point
in the United States, yet every cane is
protected during the winter.
Raspberry and blackberry canes are
bent over until they lie nearly fiat on
the ground, where the tops may be held
with pegs, forked stick, or a few
shovelfuls of earth. One or two fur
rows with turning plow on either side
will now usually cover the larger por-
tion of the canes so that the job may
be completed easily with spade and
hoe. In many localities the canes grow
too long to be easily handled, so they
must be cut back to convenient
height. This must be done late in the
fall after growth has stopped. If done
earlier, side branches will develop and
they are undesirable under these. con-
ditions. Grape vines are protected in
the same way, but the fruit requires a
much longer season in which TO mature
and consequently should not be includ.
ed in this class. Currant and gooseber.

WHILE THE western slope would
have appreciated a western man for the
position on the supreme bench made va
cant by the death of Judge Caswell,
none can point to a man in any part of
the state more worthy than Judge Helm
to wear the mantle of the deceased jur
ist. Judge Helm is not untried and the
record he made while serving on the
supreme bench did credit alike to him
self and his party. When just in the
zenith of his judicial career, Judge
Helm, at the solicitation of party lead
ers, resigned his position and became
the candidate of his party for governor.
He was unsuccessful and it is largely
because of the sacrifice he made for his
party at that time that the appointment
comes to him today. Next fall there
will be two members of the Supreme
to elect, and it is to be hoped that the
western slope will be given one of the
places on the ticket.
