ALL PARTS OF COLORADO sENE
FITTED.
Tho Movement on Foot to Boost Colo
Colorado VIII Be General,

Denyer-If the 100000 advertising
fund now being raised to boom Colo
rado is used wisely to secure settlers
for the agricultural lands of the state,
it will bring results that will benefit
every part of the state and will build
Denver as nothing else would.
This is the opinion of John Clay OF
Chicago. who is in Denver for a few
days on business. Mr.. Clay is one OF
the successful business men of the
country. He has been identified with
the live stock business In the West for
about thirty-three years and is the
head of the firm of Clay. Robinson Co.,
which has branch houses all over the
country. Mt. Clay has financial inter
ests in Colorado, being interested in
banks and live stock, and is the head
of the Western Ranches Company one
of the few remaining great cattle cor
porations of the Northwest. He is an
authority on live stock and financial
matters and predicts that Denver will
some day be one OF the greatest live
stock and packing centers in the
country.
.It is time Colorado was awakening
to the opportunities that surround this
state" said Mr.. Clay. ut has taken
long time to overcome the idea that all
the prosperity of the state Is based
upon the mineral resources of the
state. AS great as they are, agricul-
ture is many. many times greater.
Develop your agricultural resources to
their fullest extent and you have laid
the foundation that will bring every
thing else that goes to make prosper
GUS community. Your people talk OF
needing more population. and manu-
featuring is suggested as the means
to bring that end. tell you that if
you will bring in the farmers all the
rest follows as a matter of course.
Mining development will always con-
tinue as matter of course and should
be encouraged along legitimate lines,
but the farmer is the steady, legiti-
mate producer.
Let the farmers upon the high
priced land in the middle western
states know of the wonderful fertility
of your soil, and you will have flood
of immigration OF the kind that counts.
These men have the training required
to secure from your soil the very best
results. They also have a thorough
knowledge of live stock farming, and
that is the kind that will bring the
greatest profits. for the reason that
you can grow here the best root and
forage crops. and stock feeding,
coupled with sugar beet growing.
yield enormous profits to the farmer"

Mineral Farm Reopens. &.

Ouray, Colo.-The work of overhaul
ing and remodeling Mineral Farm
mill has begun. The mill, which CON
slsts of twenty stamps, has lain idle
for several years. The management
expects to have it running within the
next sixty days. At the mine where
level is being driven below the
blanket vein an immense tonnage of
ore is being blocked out.
Aa depth of 200 feet the Carbon
Lake mine on Red mountain reports
five to seven feet of black copper ore
running twenty-five per cent. TO forty
six per cent. with good values IN gold
aud silver. In the level above three
to five feet of the same character of
ore was found to continue for dis
tance of seventy-five feet along the

Maine Experience Prompted Him I
Fight Against Prohibition.

Pittsfield, Oct. 81, 1907.-The Rev.
Earl c. Davis, the working pastor OF
Unity Church of Pittsfield, created d
sensation in the No-License league
and Berkshires Ministers club this
week by announcing hat he is in favor
of high license. The above statement
was made by the Boston Sunday Her
aid, which contained the following
Il believe in the licensed city from
a moral standpoint" said he to a Her.
aid reporter. Il don't care a rap about
the financial benefit that would accrue
to a city the size of Pittsfield from the
liquor element, but ! do believe that
fields disadvantage.
81 was born and brought up in Maine.
l lived in Auburn and Lewiston. Wha-
l saw in Maine prompts me to my nc
ton now, and that is the reason |
have taken this stand.
From what | observed in Maine l
believe that no license in Pittsfield
would mean the establishment of in
Vulnerable kitchen dives that would
be followed or run in connection with
houses of %illrepute, and morally the
effect would be infinitely worse than
with the open saloon under supervision
of authorities.
auburn and Lewiston in Maine are
about the size of Pittsfield. In Auburn
alone there are $50 kitchen barrooms
and as many more in Lewiston under
a so-called prohibition regime.
Some of the Pittsfeld ministers
asked me to join the Anti-Saloon
league but its views and mine do not
coincide, and l refused to become d
member. l may have something fur
Their to say about this later
AS Pittsfield went license by oniy
40 votes last year an aggressive cam
paign has already been stated by the
no license league under the supe-
vision of the other Pittsfield minis
tiers.
Of all ministers in Berkshire county
the Rev. Earl C. Davis is the mos
picturesque. Last January he created
a stir in his church by setting fortt
this opinion in regard to church sup
pers:
Church suppers for revenue as the,
have been conducted at some churche'
are a light form of graft. The sail
OF tickets for such suppers to thos'
who really don't want them is a sor
of blackmail."
At a special parish meeting Gale
at the suggestion of Mr.. Davis at tina

time it was yoted to abandon church
suppers and the request of the Rev.
Mr.. Davis that he be allowed to WORT
in the plant of the Stanley Electric
company was granted. He then asked
that $500 be taken from his salary at
Unity Church, making that now $500.
Mr.. Davis arranged with the Stanley
company that he should have time of
for weddings and funerals. He has
taken one evening a week for parish
calls and has thought out his sermons
largely while at his daily work. He
has an hour for dinner and quits at )
p. m.
While the Rev. Mr.. Davis would not
state definitely, it is believed that he
will preach one or more at
Unity Church soon on the license ques,
ton.

five years thereafter was principal of
