OUR ANkSGIvING.

There is ample cause for rejoicing
and thanksgiving In this country to.
day, in spite of few clouds on the
sky Of the business world. The
country has for several weeks been
undergoing sort of purging process
that, while it may make us feel sick
for the time being, is only like a
little touch of seasickness: you feel
mighty bad at the time but 1t is not
at all serious, and after you begin
to recover you feel so much better
than ever, that really you forget all
about the trouble in little while
and 60 after your affairs In better
health than ever before.
We should be thankful that good.
strong men are working on plans to
prevent a recurrence of the trouble
at another time, and with the know
l6OSc SdIueu IlOu ILiS case Will CIlC
better be able to administer pre-
ventatives in the future. The whole
trouble is that we have grown SO fast
that all ordinary systems for main
tanning our body economic have been
found inadequate. But the little
trouble just passed has shown US
whore we are at, and while the
doctors have now pronounced the
patient out of danger they are fast
summing up the records of the case
aud will know lust what to do next
time when the symptoms begin to be
observed
Locally we certainly have every
reason to be thankful. We are more
prosperous this year than ever before
and il 1t has made US stop to balance
accounts for short time it will do
MS good IN every way.
For all these reasons let us eat our
Thanksgiving dinner with the best
Of relish and still not forget the
deeper meaning of the day.

is SYSTEM WRONG,

Is our jury system all wrong? is
tile question that has been asked
more frequently than any other in
Greeley the past week, following the
zcquittal in the district court last
week of Otto Kepnlc, charged with
holding up and shooting the Rev.
Oscar W. Gustafson on the evening
Of Sept. %. To everyone who heard
anything of the trial or was at all

certainly would appear as though
Justice had miscarried. The part.
Aer OF the accused man In the affair
plead guilty and told the story of the
crime, which corresponded we'll with
that Of the minister, barring a few
unimportant details. The defendan,

DIES in HIMALAYA
Former Greeley Man Meets a
Tragic End

Partly out OF friendship and partly
out of curiosity G. f Hastings oil
Chicago, who for the last -four years
has been running au inn In the HI
malaga mountains, will come 10
Greeley this week to see II lie can
find trace OF relatives of Tucker T.
Comings, who with his wife was
found dead last July in q Himalayan
snowpank. Hastings has In his pos
session picture of a girl Of perhaps
25 years Of age, and on the back oi
the picture is written In ink, faded
by long exposure, '.Mr. E. Com
ings, Union Bank Block, Greeley
Colo"
Such is the story that appeared IN
a Denver morning paper last Mon
day.
Evidently the Comings referred
to was the young artist who made
his home In Greeley for q short time
about ten years ago. But little is
known of him here.
In company with number OF
American tourists Mr.. and Mrs
Comings were making extended trips
through the most dangerous portions
of the Bimalayas late. In July, 1906.
The two became separated from the
party, were lost and the bodies were
discovered lying side by side in
half melted snow drift last July.
With the exception Of > cheap watch
which was on the person OF Mr.. Com.
ings the only clue to tbs home Of the
couple was the picture OF Mrs. Com
ings which Hastings has In his pos
The bodies were perfectly
preserved In the snow and were found
at an altitude Of nearly $4,000 feet.
1t is not known whether the
couple became lost In snowstorm or
whether they we're overcome by a
snow slide. The opinion of Mr..
is that they left the party
Tor q little wilder adventure on their
own account and sudden storm
coming up they became confused in
heir directions and we're frozen to
leath.
Mr.. Hastings became acquainted
with Comings and his wife while the
after were spsnding a few days at
1is inn, but he knows nothing of
heir life history, and the only clue
which he has Is the vague address Oh
he back Of the picture. All Of the
americans who made up the party

The JURY DISAGREED
Harry Mandel of Denver Still in
Suspense

After being out for twenty four
houSs the jury In the district court
hearing the case against Harry Man
del of Denver came in Sunday after
noon with no agreement reached.

ent for the company, and Arthur
Robinson, wire chief
Whaples was convicted and sent to
the penitentiary where he is still
serving his sentence. Robinson was
also convicted but was pardoned by
Governor Bucthel before he was
taken from the county Jail to be sent
to Canon City. 1t was clnimed that
Mandel came here at midnight and
received the $500 worth OF copper
wire that had been taken from the
company. 1t was question Of
whether or not he knew that the
wire was stolen.

Of Walter Lininger. resident o
the east side, that the two boys nc
cpsed we're at his house at the yer.
moment, or probably a few minutes
later than the time when the MIN
ister was shot. The result was thai
this alibi stood and to the minds o.
the iurymen was proof positive thai
Keppic could not have been the man
because he could not have been two
places half mile apart at the SAME
moment.
The next norning when the plea
of guilty was entered by the other
man in the case and testimony was
taken he did not deny the fact that
they had been at the home OF Lin
niger at about the time stated and
secured food, but also testified that
they had gone direct from there to
the scene Of the holdup and this took
place less than ten minutes after
EVERYBODY else connected with the
court, except the jury, was convinced
of the young mans guilt, and even
some members Of the jury felt this
to be the case. yet in the face of this
they found themselves bound under
their oaths to judge only Of the tes-
timony, to acquit the man. 1t was
simply a matter of splitting hairs as
to what was their duty. A few
minutes after his acQuittal the
young man was boasting that he shot
the preacher, but was able to
beat It,.
No doubt the jurymen were sim
cere in their belief that they would
violate their oaths II the man was
found guilty. 1t is all right too,
that a prisoner should have the
benefit of a reasonable doubt about
his guilt, but the jury system vas
to protect society as
we'll as the criminal. and apparently,
from what some members Of the jury
stated afterward, there was a strong
doubt in their minds about the pris-
oners innocence, and so instead of
giving the people the benefit of the
doubt they gave 1t to the prisoner.
An isolated case like this matters
not SO much but there does seem to
be something wrong with the system
that will permit such a mixup.
Three men, with minds trained in
judicial matters, would come nearer
giving accused and accusers a square
deal than dozen men with little
or no knowledge of law and with no
minds trained for weighing evidence
and so far as the monetary cost Is
would probably be even
lighter than the present system.

LIQUOR IN NORWAY.
Laws by Which the Sale Of Intoxicants
Is Controlled

Laws by Which the Sale Of Intoxicants
Is Controlled.
The Samlag system in Norway gives
power to municipalities to grant all
the retail spirit licenses which it deems
necessary to company which would
bind itself to carry on the traffic in the
interests of the community, with
fixed annual return of not more than
5 per cent on it's paid up capital. In
esta blishing the system the question
of compensation does not appear to
have presented much difficulty. When
the Samlag was introduced two kinds
of licenses were in existence-frst.
those granted annually or for term
not exceeding five years, and, second.
privileged licenses, granted for the life
Of the licensee. In the case of the first
no compensation whatever was paid to
those dispossessed Of their licenses.
In regard to the latter compensation
was granted in the form of an annuity
equal to the average yearly profits for
the three years preceding the suppress
sion Of the license.
With these provisions the aims and
principles of the Samlag are summa-
rized as follows: The elimination of
private profit and securing the monop-
oily value for the public, insuring high
est quality of liquors sold, the reduc-
ton Of the number of licenses, the
easy enforcement Of the law, the de-
! struction Of the power of the spirit
trade and the furtherance Of all pro
gressive measures of reform. - New

tie Creature.
There is a small snail which is so
fond of the sea that it never comes to
land, and it builds such capital boat
for itself and its eggs that while large
ships are sinking and steamers are I'M
able to face the storm it losses about
in perfect safety.
The little snail is of a violet color
and is therefore called ianthina It
has a small shell, and there projects
from the upper part of the body a long,
tonguelike piece Of flesh. This is the
raft, and it is built upon most scien-
tific principles, for it has compart-
ments in it for air. 1t is broad and
the air compartments are underneath,
50 that it cannot capsize.
Moreover, the snail knows how to
stow away it's cargo, for the oldest
eggs and those which hatch the soon
est are placed in the center and the
lightest and newest on the sides of the
raft. The ianthina fills it's own air
compartments by getting globule of
air underneath it's head The body is
then curved downward beneath the
raft, and, the head being tilted on one
side, the air rushes up and fills the
spaces It feeds on a beautiful little
jellyfsh, which has a fiat, raftlike
form with a pretty little sail upon it,

Concerning "christian Names"

May one interject a gentle protest
against the use Of the phrase Chris
tian name" in this connection? The
Romans said praenomen, the French
say prenom, and we have used the
word 'sforename" for the last 365
years. 1t is as incorrect to speak Of
the Christian name Of a Jew, for ex-
ample, as it would be hopeless to ex-
pect a Christmas card from Jewish
rabbi. Again, the middle name Of
Roman was his gentle name-that Of
his gems. On the surface, what pref
ty confusion of ideas it would have
been to have spoken of the name as at
once gentle and Christian!-London
