publican national campaign funds as a
method of showing appreciation Of past
favors and a lively anticipation of fav-
ors to come. This. however. is the first
time tacit bargain has been admitted.
For there is no doubt but that Baer
was given to understand that If he
would raise the beggarly wages OF his
miners and so aid in saving the Re-
publican party from defeat he might
do as he pleased with the coal consum-
er. The trouble is that the Republican
party is not carrying out it's part of
the bargain.
Mr.. Baer has some reason for be-
lieving he has been mistreated. He has
been. 1t was hardly fair to take his
money and then betray him. Baer has
right to feel i'll used. But there are
some others in the same fix. There is
Mr.. Hartman, for example, now class
ed by Mr.. Roosevelt with William d.
Haywood and others as an undesirable
citizen" Hartman was not an I'M
desirable citizen when Mr.. Roosevelt
1904. He accepted Harriman's money
eheerfully and thankfully.
Mr.. Rockefeller, too, feels aggrieved,
perhaps. And so do some more of the
citizens Mr.. Roosevelt's prosecutors
have been attacking. At the same time,
though, the people generally will be
pardoned if they smile.

| CRIMINALS NERVE.

Caleb Powers. one time secretary of
state to Kentucky, is about to be tried
or the fourth time for completely in the
murder of Governor Goebel of that
state. Powers has been tried three
times and three times he has been con-
Victed. At the conclusion of his last
hearing he was sentenced to die on the
gallows. Now this man has the eff
-rontery to make suggestions as to the
manner of his fourth trial. In this he
follows lines laid down by w. S. Tay-
or, for d time de facto governor of
Kentucky, and now a fugitive from
justice under the protection of the gov
ernOr Of Indiana.
Taylor has offered, from his haven in
indiana, to return to Kentucky and tes-
lily in the Powers trial If the state of
kentucky will put on the Powers Jury
or on jury to try him, six Democrats
and six Republicans. He also wants
all indictments against his fellow con-
sDirators in the Goebel assassination
dismissed. Taylor adds to these a num-
Der Of other conditions. which he knew
quite well before he made them, would
not be accepted. For. Taylor has about
as much idea of returning to Kentucky
voluntarily as he has of taking an
automobile trip TO the moon
Powers proposes TO let three mon
partisan, high-class Democrats not yet
actively engaged in politics. select the
judge who is to trv him. Just how he
can find Democrats OF standing in the
party or in the state who have not
actively engaged in politics. Powers
does not make clear. His idea probably
IS to find three sO-called Democrats
who have secretly espoused the prin-
ciples Of the Republican party. But of
course Powers proposition will not be
accepted by the prosecuting attorney
or by the governor of Kentucky. 1t is
too absurd for serious contemplation.
Since when did convicted murderer
have the right to select, even vicariOus-
ly, his trial Judge? And in what man.
ner, except in the fact that he has made
every possible effort to pose as a poll
tical martyr, does Powers differ from
any other convicted murderer? This
defendant has had three trials. In
each instance there has been at least
one Republican on the jury. And in
every instance he was convicted. Yet
he could not have been convicted with
out a unanimous verdict.
More than eight years have passed
since Governor GOebel was shot down
by an assassin stationed in the office
of Caleb Powers. then de factO secre-
tary of state. There is every reason
for believing that Powers was an ac-
cessOry before the fact. His fourth
trial should be conducted under the
laws of the state of Kentucky and he
should be given neither greater nor less
opportunities to secure an acquittaI
than would be accorded to any other
defendant in a criminal case.

PRESIDENT BAER's Wall.

George F. Baer, president Of the an
thracite coal trust, who once referred to
himself as among those TO whom God
I'm his infinite wisdom had committe
the property interests of the country,
sheds an interesting light on the pres
idential campaign Of 1900 in his answer
to the governments suit to break In
the anthracite trust. Mr.. Baer SAYS
very frankly that strike was in pro-
sress and that the late Senator Hanna,
chairman of the Republican national
committee, came to him and induced
him 10 grant the strikers a raise of
wages. Hanna's plea being that a pro-
longation of the strike would endanger
the success Of the Republican party.
The increase being granted, Baer
promptly compelled the public to pay
it by raising the price of coal. In
other words, Baer compelled the people
TO pay for the success of the RepubH-
can party. and he coolly comes into
court and attempts to justify himself.
The inference is. and Mr.. Baer doubt
less intends the inference to be drawn.
that it is most ungrateful for the pres
ent administration, also Republican, to
come in now and attempt to break up
his combination to increase prices,
when that combination was made nee
essary by his answering fealty TO the
Republican party.
1t has often been charged. and very
Justly SO. that the great combinations
and trusts contribute largely to Re-

A PRESIDENTIAL iMPossIelLITY.

Harper's Weekly has been running a
most interesting series which it calls
Democratic Presidential Possibili-
ties" and it's latest suggestion is Hen
ry Watterson, the brilliant editor of
the Louisville Courier-JournaI. The
article itself is of interest because it is
the biography of the last of the great
personal journalists, the only one re-
naming of the familiar figures like
Greeley and Dana and Raymond and
the elder Bennett, Medin and Story
men whose personality made their pub
locations powerful. But as a veracious
chronicle the title is wrong, because
"Marse Henry is of all prominent
Democrats the most impossible as a
presidential candidate.
To begin with, the Kentucky editor
has said that he would accept no Of
flee within the gift of the president or
the people, and he meant 1t. In the
second place, his political career
makes him ineligible He fought Cleve-
land in and out of the convention and
supported him grudgingly; he has
fought Bryan and is still fighting his
aspirations as a leader. In the cam
paign of 1896 he supported the Buck
ner ticket and bOlted Bryan. Even
though there were no question about
the staunchness of his party faith, his
record as a recalcitrant would be
,fs t. a. II g
nomination, if he had any, and insure
his defeat if he got the nomination.
There are, however, better reasons
than these for saying Mr.. Watterson
is a presidential impossibility. He
knows as well as anybody that it is
more fun and less bother to conduct
a great newspaper, than to be presi-
dent; that his influence as editor of
the Courier-Journal is UNNECESSARILY
greater, because more continuous, than
he could WELD from the presidential
chair Although he cannot, like War
wick, make kings, he has the joy of
them and saying what he
thinks about them. If not the ablest
editorial writer in America today, he
is certainly the most distinguished,
and in that capacity he need envy no
president.
No, Mr.. Watterson is not presiden-
tial possibility, but he is easily the
most potent citizen of the south, the
most beloved of his fraternity any
where. He doesn't need any more
laurels, and he can't be spared from
his enviable place in the hearts of his
own people.

Secretary Taft comes to the front as
the hero" of a train wreck. It ap-
pears that when the car left the track
and the people were shaken up Secre-
tary Taft was brave enough not to
scream. Such heroism is so rare as to
entitle the secretary to at least dozen
medals, with perhaps a presidential
nomination thrown in.

BILLS DEAD
c.N. S. ONLY INSTITUTION
GRANTING LIFE DIPLOMA
Rejoicing at Normal Over Action
by State Senate at the
Last Moment-Other
Matters

The session of the sixteenth gen.
eral assembly came to an end late
Monday night. While, no doubt,
there we're several good laws passed,
there are but few of especial interest
to Weld county. The Normal school
here was given an appropriation of
$50, 900 and s2, 600 was granted for .
state bridge over the Poudre. These
are the only two appropriations in
which this section is directly inter-
ested.
But there seems to be more cause
for rejoicing over the death of the
bills to create three other normal
schools in the state than over any
legislation passed. Three of these
bills were killed in the senate at
session last Sunday after the bills
had already passed the house. Last
Monday evening DR.. z. X. Snyder.
president of the State Normal school,
came home, after the long fight
against the bills. He was accom-
panied by Senator W. L. Clayton
and Representative H. @. Watson.
The three were met at the station
by most of the students at the school
and we're taken in automobiles to
the home of DIR. Snyder where q re-
ception and general jubilee was held.
Following the reception the stu
dents marched through the streets
with torchlights and flags singing:
THE only life diploma comes from
the q. N. S." and
All % 81 fptKSi1{ tKSi1{ Il b0 }r,s the ss doctor Of the
popular air.
The killing Of the three normal
school bills and also the bill to IL
cense to teach all graduates of the
State university, Denver university
and Colorado college leaves the Gree
ley institution the only one In the
state that can grant a life diploma
to it's graduates to teach within the
borders of the state.
The state examining board can
grant such a diploma, but the appli-
cant must pass the state examina-
tion to secure this.

TO BUILD Big HOTEL
E. Stanley Plans Improve
ments tor Estes Park

Contracts have been let and active
work will soon COM
mence on a 800, 600 hotel to be built
at Estes Park by j. f. Stanley OF
the Stanley Automobile company OF
this city. In connection with the
hotel an automobile line is to be
established between Denver and
Estes to accommodate guests of the
hotel who do not wish to wait upon
the railroad or prefer travel In an
automobile to riding on a railroad
car.
The hotel is to be modern In every
respect, and will be built with a
special view toward light, ventila.
tion and room. The smallest room
in the structure is to be l6xl6 feet,
and the rotundas will be nearly 100
feet each In length. Long verandas
will be constructed In such manner
that guests will have splendid
view OF the surrounding country.
Work on the building will be
rushed, and 1t is hoped to have 1t
completed In time to catch at least
the early fall tourists. A detailed
report of the building will be made
later by Mr.. Stanley.-Denver News.
Mr.. Stanley has recently bought
part interest in Estes Park from b.
d. Sanborn, who bought 1t from the
Estes Park Development company
some months ago.

Should the plans of j. B. Agnew,

vacant lots these unsightly places
may this summer be turned into
flower gardens of rare beauty. Mr..
Agnew desires to plant all vacant
lots with sweet peas, for the purpose
of securing the seed after they are
matured. He offers owners OF the
lots all The flowers they want for the
privilege.
In addition to the vacant lots al
ready promised Mr. Agnew he has
secured the privilege of planting
row of sweet peas clear around some
of the farms close to town.
Mr.. Agnew's business is sweet pea
seed and he has followed this busi-
ness successfully in California. he
believes that the country about
Greeley is particularly we'll adapted
for this industry. In company with

J. Spear, 1. personally, admit full
responsibility for that action In no,

In that position, and in anticipa

originally met with some objection

on that matter, Mr.. Spear reveals
the fact that he is not aware of the
terms Of the contract itself, nor of
the ordinary procedure In such
cases, which need not surprise any
one who knows that gentleman.
Under the contract the council have

and in doing SO they acted under ad-
