tenth one held on the grounds of this

DOES IT PAY!

Dr. l. E. Newsom, who was recent
ly appointed state meat and slaughter
plant inspector, by Governor Buchtel,
was selected because of his special fit
ness for this difficult position. DR..
Newsom is a good example of what is
possible for young man to accom-
plish in free America, if he but pos
sess determination to apply his en-
ergies in securing an education and is
willing to endure some hardships and
eschew the frivolous and time vast
ing pleasures which obstruct the path.
way of the average young man.
Dr. Newsom came from farm in
the southern part of the state, where
he was employed as farm hand. He
entered the Agricultural college at
Fort Collins, short in funds. but long
in determination. He made his way
through college by working as janitor,
finally becoming newspaper reporter.
But no matter how hard his luck, and
the apparently insurmountabl BILE obsta
cles in his way. he burned the mid
night oil and stuck persistently to his
task. After graduating at the Agri
cultural college, he secured some as
sistance and went to the San Francisco
Veterinary college, returning with the
gold medal. He was then secured by
DR.. Glover as assistant in the veteri-
nary department at the Agricultural
college, and developed into one of the
strongest teachers in that institution
His present position is one requiring
not only ability. but much tact. 1t
would be very easy for a man holding
that position to become offensive and
create an opposition that would be
disastrous in the extreme. DR.. New
SONS policy is to work with the
butchers and packers to secure their
cooperation, encourage moral in
fluence everywhere that will mean a
purer and better meat supply
That DR.. Newsom will make good
goes without saying. What this
young man has done. other poor boys
can do. 1t is simply a case of not
sitting around and waiting for some-
thing to turn up. but deciding upon
a course, practicing self denial, and
overriding all obstacles and doggedly
and persistently hanging on until the
goal is reached.

SOME PEOPLE have habit of
talking great deal without knowing
what they are talking about. That
is, they reason from false premise
and from their viewpoint without
taking anything else into considera-
tion their argument seems highly
plausible. This is the position of
those who delight to abuse Governor
Buchtel because he cannot find author
ity under the present laws for working
great many reforms which he
would personally like very much to
see brought about. but which he un-
fortunately has no power as governor
of the state to set in motion. A few
years ago the governor had some pow
or and control over the city of Denver
by reason of his right to appoint the
fire and police board of the city, but
some governors abused this right for
political purposes and now since the
governor has by the legislature been
shorn of the power to interfere in
municipal matters the very people
who favored taking away this power
are the loudest in their denunciation
of the governor for not doing the very
thing which they have made it impos-
sible for him to do. Twas ever thus.

Weekly Stock Letter

Denver Union Stock Yards, May 20.
More liberal receipts of cattle here
last week and lower markets at East
ern points resulted in shade lower
values here, though the demand con
tinues very strong and the market
closed in nice shape. Beef steers are
weak to dime lower, good cows
nearly steady, medium and poorer
cows about dime off, bulls firm and
veals weak to dime lower. East
ern feeder and stocker markets are
demoralized owing to the fact that
cold weather has retarded pastures
and stockmen are short on rough feed.
This condition resulted in lower
values mere for the light common
steers though good feeders are barely
steady. Good fat steers sold at f4.S5
to $5.25 with fancy corn feds up to
S. 40, the high price. Cows brought
"a. 80 with several punches at $3.50
and most of the pretty good killers
ranging from this down to 1915.
Bulls sold at So. 10 to So. 80 with top
at 1915. Veals IS. so to 800. No
good feeders aad stockers were offered.
few landed at Ass but not many
above g. IS as quality was not good
enough. About 8, 900 head of south
ern stockers arrived at the yards but
most of them were delivered here on
contract and not much trading done.
Todays receipts we're 5000, mostly
southerns. Market strong on cows but
weak on steers,
Hog supply was 8, 300 head against
1900 week ago and 22OO year ago.
Demand is fair though not urgent
owing to the heavy run. Prices
dropped considerably early in the
week but the loss has ABOUT all been
regained, tops now selling at $6.45.
Sheep supply last week was less
than 1, 900 head and trade very quiet.
Demand was good and prices fully
steady despite the fact that eastern
markets were lower. Best wooled
ewes ale selling around $6. So clipped
at s.. 50 and lambs at $500 to $s. 10.

Before the National Editorial Asso-
citation the other day, President
Roosevelt pleaded for a clean and
fearless press, and was understood by
some of his auditors, at any rate, as
implying that there is not much OF
such a press in this country. Few Of
the delegates, who were his hosts,
relished the speech, and Crosby s
Noyes, editor of the Washington Star,
IN his address subsequently COM
mented on the presidents words.
Mr. Moves compared the achieve
ments of Captain Smith gin planting
and sustaining the English colony
with that of President Roosevelt. and
declared that the ywere las worthy
Of glorification, but lacked the aid of
the newspaper press that had so
greatly helped the latter in his up
ward career"
The newspapers, the speaker de-
clared, have given Mr.. Roosevelt
their vigorous support in his reform
policies, have exploited all his say
ings and dOings through the twenty
-four hours of the day.
Mr. Roosevelt had seemed some
what slow i'll acknowledging his i'll,
Aebtedness TO the press" Mr.. Noyes
said, but perhaps he will think of IL
some day when he is not too busy"
In discussing the attitude toward
the press of our rulers, state and
national the speaker declared that
they have, with two or three eXcep-
tions, been on friendly terms with the
Anewspaper men. In discussing Presi-
Alent Rooscvelts attitude, he said:
Ire has declared himself in favor
"a clean. healthy newspapers, with
chan, healthy criticisms. which should
bel fearless and truthful; but when 1t
comes to the tets. il is seen that he
does not relish these fearless and
truthful criticisms when they are eN'
ercised at his expense.
His hasty approval of the brutal
deeds of his subordinateS at the White
= House. when they knocked down and
dragged out Mrs. Minor Morris, a re-
fined, respectable, Christian woman,
was an act of cruel. heartless injuS-
tice But the newspaper men have no
quarrel with the president. There Is
some friction between them, but no
rupture, and Secretary Loeb dis
penses the White House news with
tact and intelligence.
And whether Mr.. Roosevelt is
elected by reclamation for third
term, or rules by deputy in the shape
of a president designed by him. or
whether after an interval of four
years, he shall again take the presi-
dency. he will receive the cordial sup
port of the press in all great efforts
for the public good and national well
fore At the same time, the press
will reserve the right to fearleSsly
and truthfully' criticise his acts when
they are inconsiderate and unjust
The newspapers have nothing Ia
ask of him but fair treatment They
hold themselves to he ordained
preachers. as well as Mr.. Roosevelt,
and they will keep their pulpits for
all time. For presidents may come,
and presidents may go, but the press,
like Tennysons brook, goes on for
ever"
