CUSTOM HARD TO FORGET
Employe Simply Couldn't Help Jug
Cling with the Scales When
Hogs Were Weighed.

sEven before the days when Mr.. Ar

phone every rorLing and fix the meat
prices of the world. It was almost a
universal habit Of the individual hog
buyers 70 see TO II that they stood no
chance OF loss In purchasing the hog
raisers' products. The method was to
juggle with the scales.
An honest hog-buyer started up in
business and guaranteed the farmers a
fair deal. He always weighed the
porkars twice to guard against mis-
takes. Once in weighing a bunch Of
pigs the second tims. he found their

He was at loss 10 account for the
condition until an enploye confessed
that at the first weighing he had in
serted the toe OF his boot under the
scales and pried II mp. thus cheating
the farmer out Of one hog. The buyer
was indignant.
What did you do a trick like that
fort" he asked. "You couldn't have
proiited by It, anyhow"
Il know II, John" said the guilty
man, 'but ! Just couldn't help it."
IL had always been the custom tc
cheat the farmer and the man couldn',

the wife of one of the leading drug

quickly when the matter was ex-

treated their members.
Things like this speak volumes for
the management of the Common
wealth, as 1t shows that their honest
and prompt payment of claims Is
spreading their reputation far and
wide. Honest concerns like this not
only do great good in their own city,
but bring much money from outside for

Misplaced Confidence.

The efforts of the Bardwell investi-
cation commission in ferreting out the
facts connected with the fraudulent
and excessive expenditure of money in
the receivership of the Denver Savings
Bank, deserves the hearty support Of
large The lesson drawn from the
facts are wholesome and practical.
Mr.. Stevick, who was appointed re-
ceiver by District Judge John l. Null
worthy man; man whose ability was
not overestimated, and a man who
would nourish the interest and guard
the right of the hundreds of working
people who had their "all' in the Den
yer bank when he was appointed re-
ceiver Being a lawyer himself, his
acts were within the bounds of the
law, but beyond the bounds of reason
His few favorite friends, together
with himself, fattened their bank ac-
counts and the poor working people
are the sufferers-victims of mis-
placed confidence. Many colored citi-
zens were among the unfortunate de-
positors. At one time Mr. Stevick en-
joyed a good reputation. To-day, un-
der the scouraging and scrutinizing
eyes of those who once looked to him
as the exponent of firmness and their
leader, he fiinches, founders and
groans, and is morally dead one.
Never were genuine, worthy men, as
leaders, in such demand AS race
we realize this fact Men who can fill
the measure, who have honest, intel
ligent intentions, no selfish, petty mo-
tives, who have no ak to grind, who
have TO desire to victimize any one .
Unfortunately, the illiterate element
in most instances are the victims. The
loss of money, the loss of confidence,
the over-estimation of ability, are daily
occurrences. To many they are painful.
The lesson is wholesome. Look and
learn. When you are in place OF
trust be considerate. Make your prom
ises in good faith. If you are prone to
be a misleader instead OF leader,
have the courage to shape ends so you
alone will be the victim.

"Honesty is the best policy" is an old
least once too often, and for so doing the
police made quite a hall on Saturday
night and among the number was one
of Denver's prominent young colored
men, Anderson Wright, who, for the past
two years has been one o. the employees
of the Braman Gents Furnishing Store.
Wright was about to leave. the store
with box of hosiery when he was de-
tanned until officers arrived and put him
under arrest. His room at 1919 Welton
street, was seaoched and goods to the
amount Of about 100000 was found
which Wright is said to admit was
stolen property. There is no reasonable
excuse, nor is it case Of necessity for a
man steadily employed, to resort to
stealing and too, from those whe employ
him. All Negroes are not thieves, but it
is true in too many cases that white
men wink an eye Of suspicion at those
case as the above are brought to light.
Those Of the race who have the utmost
confidence of their employers should
strive to retain it and thus command
the highest respect for themselves and
the race. This is but another instance
where the Negro has learned lesson
from the evil whites. 1t is to be de-
plored that such is the case and we
again advise all to adhere to the motto
beginning this article. The trial of Mr..
Wright is set for next Monday.
