WITH all the bowling being

Goals for the American navy
from Britain, and horseshoes for
the British cavalry from America!
Whether the cause of these two
events is from the same reason we
are unable to determine, but that
they have an equal significance
to the peoples of both countries
must be apparent to the dullest
comprehension. The coal Trust.
by its extortionate demands made
it imperative on the government
to 90 abroad for coal for the navy,
and if there is anything that can
bring home to the people the dam
nable iniquity OF the greed of the
Coal Trust, it is this attempted
robbery of the country through
the imitation of the cost Of coal for
naval purposes. This incident
shows more than anything else the
national perils that lie behind a
Tariff wall that keep out free com
petition and strangles trade.

Gov. BUcHTEL passed up the
trip on the Mississippi with Pres
ident Roosevelt. He had sen,
his acceptance and then for some
unaccount4ble reason decided to
stay at home. Wonder if his de-
cision came after he learned that
the G. A. r. boys had complained
to the President of the Governors
imbecile action in keeping AL
drich in charge of our state home
and had learned that the Presi-
dent had threatened to use his in
fiuence to cut out the congress

CALLS BUcHTEL PARTY DIsRUPrER.

For man with mental attain
ments above the average, with a
long and seemingly successful ex
perience in handling men, and
with the most sagacious political
advisers in the state, Governor
Buchtel seems to possess an abll-
ity for blundering that has seldom
been equalled and never surpassed
in any similar position.
He went into office with
united party. the prestige of a
splendid majority, with the friend
ship and good wishes of almost
every person in the state, regard
less of politics. In addition to
all his the enemy was divided
and dismayed, SO that the oppor-
tuity is seldom given to a man
to make better record How he
has succeeded in setting prac-
tically every interest and indi
vidual in the state in a turmoil,
how he has played the part of
politician instead of statesman,
and how in the nine short months
he has disrupted the Republican
party and impaired (if not ruined)
the chances for future success.
the people of Colorado are al
ready aware. but the full measure
of his mischief to his state and to
his party only the future can dis
close.
One thing though is certain. If
the governor should find that his
duties at Denver University, with
its increased attendance, pre-
cluded his devoting any further
time to the onerous affairs of
state and that he is compelled to
resign the governors Office at
once, the people of Colorado
would endeavor to bear their loss
with all the Christian resignation
possible under the circumstances.

THE attention of our readers is
called to the fact that last weeks
Grand Junction papers we're filled
with accounts of most remark
able address delivered in that
city by Senator LaFollet. the
great reform republican. whose
name is second only to that of the
President himself in matter of
purity in politics. We naturally
expected to see pretty liberal
comments in Delta county's re-
publican press. as we knew they
were all reformcrs. and earnest
and loyal followers of M. d. Vim
cent. their active young repre-
sentative. But so far we have
failed to see comment of any
character on the honored senator's
address. Even the esteemed
Booster was so silent that one
might think he did not take the
paners at all. We much fear that
Senator Guggenheim has ordered
the Delta county press to quit the
reform business or he will quit
paying the bills.

THE FOOD FAD.

citrate Britain l. the health food
tad. The countess of Essex is an
American woman. and she is pro-
ceeding to Intioduce the bio omin'
Britisher to the deiiohts of food
according to Hny!e. Her frs |
venture in this line is the popu
larizing of stewed onions ano
peanuts (wonGer it wasn't tripe
among the fair society females OF
the right little, tight little island.
Next will probably come maple
bud tea and non explosive coffee,
made from the inner bark of the
cactus root. After that the re-
formed Britishers will get baked
mandrakes with bloodroot dress
ing. in lieu of roast beef, and
singed cotton with sea water
sauce, to take the place Of steak.
The countess is kindly vegeta,
rian, you know, and doesn't mean
to have anything suffer-save the
stomachs and tempers of her dis
ciples.
Frankly, about nineteentwen-
tieths of this food fad business
gives us great WEAKNESS which
nothing can assuage save an old
fashioned meal. When one reads
the magazines and interviews and
tracts and advertisements of these
good people one wonders how
humanity managed to exist
through all the ages that elapsed
before the food faddist came
along and set things right by
turning them bottom side up
For ourselves we have a we'll
grounded confidence in the tastes
and appetites of the unspoiled
human being. We believe that
every man and woman should
take enough exercise in the open
air to keep up an appetite. Hav
ing done that, their tastes will
look out for the rest. If there is
an appetite that has existed for a
long time among healthy peoples,
an appetite whose qualification
has not clearly injured its possess
ors, then the chances are about a
million to one that that appetite
is right and that the arguments
against it are wronp. To take
only one .instance-bread. For
generations the struggle of man.
kind has been to get wheat bread
and white bread. We have
judged bread by its color. and
counted that best which was the
purest white. Then came a half
educated gentleman with a pen
chant for reforming the world,
and declared that we we're sacri.
hcing to our color prejudices the
best of the wheat-and gave us
"Graham" flour. with the assur.
ance that it contained far more
nourishment than did the white
-four None the less. mankind
stuck to the white flour. And
now, with the fuller development
of science. we find that instinct
was right, and the half-learned
chemistry wrong. Graham" flour
does contain more nitrogenous
material than white. But that
material is largely in form that
not even an ostrich could assimi-
late and in usablc nourishment the
white -four is far and away ahead.
1t is the same with nearly all the
other food fads-with all that we
know. though we say "nearly" to
be on the safe side. The cry
against meat eating is as utterly
baseless as the cry against white
flour Meat is the most concentra-
ted food we have, that is all; and
every virile people on earth either
uses meat or the nearest available
substitute News.
