UPTON SINCLAIR'S SUBSTITUTE
FOR THE HOME.

Some six months ago, Upton Sin
clair, author of THE Jungle" formed
a colony for carrying out some Of his
socialistic ideas.
twisting the tail of the Packingtown
COW until the below of that animal
could be heard around the world, had
other ideas of reform. He intended
to do away with the home. According
TO the Sinclair idea, the home should be
abolished. The ideal life was the COM
munity life. where men OF large intel
lect get together and commune, and
where the servants were not servants,
but acknowledgements of the helpers
being wives of the men with the large
intellects-and where the children
would be brought up in a nursery un-
der just the proper restraints.
Announcement was made that among
his 800 colonists, Mr.. Sinclair had a
Yale man to tend the furnace. But
the Yale man quit tending the furnace
pretty soon, and the colony didn't get
his advertising for long. Somebody
else-probably a Harvard man-must
have been secured in his stead, for the
colony has been existing these six
months, which it couldn't have done
without somebody to tend the furnace.
And in the current Independent Mr..
Sinclair quotes a lot of things to show
that 1t Is a ,olly success. He says
that he and his wife and little boy can
live there for $1,000 a year, and he tells
Of a college professor. with a wife and
two children, who had been spending

A PROPHET ABROAD.

At the national capital the people
rise above the narrow limitations
placed upon individuals within the con
fines Of the states. There senators
and representatives are looked upon
not from the standpoint Of their value
to the commonwealth which they rep,
resent. but from the higher and broad
err view of national worth. They are
expected as a matter OF course to take
care OF all matters pertaining to their
constituencies. but the real measure
of their craftsmanship is their abil.
ity to achieve results for the nation as
a whole. The state is dwarfed into
the country at large.

THE NINTH LEGISLATURE.

The legislative session just closed
has fulfilled all party pledges. 1t was
pledged to the election Of Hon. Fran
els q. Warren to the United States
senate. the passage Of a state deposit
tory law and an apportionment bill.
These things have been accomplished.
Further than this, it passed many
measures that will prove Of great val
ue to the state. The irrigation bill is
a valuable measure. The attorney
general remarked the other day that
he believed this Jaw would fill the
state with beet-sugai factories. 1t pro-
vides for the bonding Of districts to
further the promotion Of irrigation and
agricultural development and will per-
NIT the raising of large sums Of money
by the people who own the land and
the water rights.
Some good measures failed, to be
sure. That Is always the case. In a
brief session of forty days there is not
s%ufhcient time to revolutionize our en-
tire system Of government and bring
the millennium at a single bound. There
are widely divergent views as to the
millennium, too. What suits one per-
son is bitterly opposed by another,
and so legislation zones about to a
very large degree as a matter Of com
promise.
The depository law will make for
the people several thousand of dollars
per annum-perhaps to begin with as
much as ten thousand dollars, when
the counties, cities and school districts
are considered.
There was some bitterness in evi.
dence at times, but perhaps not more
than usual and this will pass away
when the members have an opportun-
ity to ponder over results as a whole,
1t Is natural to strenuously contend
for all that constituents desire, but
when it is found to be impossible OF
accomplishment the inevitable should
be accepted with good grace.
Appropriations were higher than US
ual, in the aggregate, but the needs o
the state are on the increase and from
year to year as development continues

summer, although the breeding farm
will have tracts devoted to wheat, rye,
oats, barley, shade and fruit trees, or.
namental plants and garden seeds, new
varieties of these being the aim OF the
company.
Experimental Farm Here.
An experimental farm will be main
tanned on the Laramie plain, the gov
eminent experiment station at this

in seed and plant breeding will be as
systematic and thorough, according to

Gone to Fort Collins.
Prof. Buffum and H. T. NOVEL;, the
instructor in irrigation engineering at

Collins to take a series of pictures OF

There is now on hand the largest col
