ira Costa county will deliver the ad
dress at the Lincoln Roosevelt leagues
weekly luncheon this coming Wednes-
day.
These weekly luncheons have become
so popular that the league is finding
difficulty in accommodating all who
attend with seats. The limit OF accom-
modation at Tait's has been about
reached already and it is-probable that
a larger dining room will have to be
found elsewhere in order that all who
go to hear the leagues principles ex-
pounded may have elbow room.

Already air nayigators are begin
ming to tell us what to do. One Of the
first things they ask is that the name
of the town should be painted in large
letters on the tops of tall buildings. so
that he who flies may read. Then the
navigator can know whether he is
over Michigan or Mississippi, over a
wet or dry town, or nearly over his
voyage. This request appears to pre-
suppose that flying will be confined to
the United States. However, If the
invention is successful people will fly
in all directions. Therefore the names
of the towns would have to be printed
in every language represented in the
International Flyers union. We see
now where the need of Esperanto
comes in. The aviators can put In their
spare time studying that language as
they fit from land to land, for they
can't possibly get daily paper up
while they are up there.

A Woman. Apathy.

1t is unquestionably true that one
of the greatest obstacles in the wom-
ans path OF industrial progress has
been her own apathy. She is re-
preached by the men in her trade for
her lack of interest in trade unionism;
she is reproached by the philanthro-
pist for her lack of ambition = her
seeming willingness to remain un-
skilled and underpaid. But in this
new movement for the franchise. says
Edith Abbott, in Atlantic, we have the
women who are already in the ranks
of the skilled workers, and who have
long since proved their capacity for
organization taking another great step
forward. They have at last learned
that their industrial regeneration can
come only through their own efforts
and the Importance OF this new spirit
of independence. this enlarging of
the working woman's sphere of activ-
ity to demand a voice in the laws
that regulate her TOLL" would be diff
ficult to overestimate.

Bumper Potato Crop.

Greeley, Colo.-Professor Bennett of
Colorado Agricultural college, a potato
specialist, who, in connection with the
college work, is experimenting an ex-
perimental station for the growing of
~ varieties of potatoes east OF
Greeley. was here Wednesday and said
the prospects were that the Greeley
district would have the biggest potato
crop on record He estimates it's value
at 100000.
This, he believes, will be secured,
not only because of the large yield and
good quality but because of the high
price promised owing to the small po-
tato crop throughout the United
States, estimated at rs per cent. of the
normal. The only competition to be
feared in the Greeley district, he says,
is that which comes from foreign
lands, where the crop is better than
usual this year, but as these countries
use their potatoes in manufacturing
by-products, it is not likely that many
will be exported.
There is not only an increased crop
in this district, but all the state, and
Professor Bennett says farmers will
dig potatoes this year which will bring
them 5000 an acre. Dealers report the
market active in only few localities.

Denver Auditorium Concerts.

Denver.-Mayor Speer has arranged
for free concerts to be given every
Sunday afternoon and evening in the
auditorium. All plans have been COM
pleted and the initial concert will be
held the evening of October 4. The
tramway has agreed to pay one-third
of the expenses to be incurred and the
city will bear the balance of the cost.
A contract has been signed with Gar
giulo's band to play until the first of
the year. There will also be other
features on the weekly programs, such
as harp, violin and vocal solos by ar
lists from Denver and elsewhere. The
talent will be the best that can be Sc
cured for the money available. OF
course no artist of worldwide renown
will be heard. The aim will be to pro-
vide wholesome, elevating entertain
ments for the people in general who
haven't the means to spend on amuse
ments. In the afternoon 1t is hoped to
attract the children chiefly.
Such great artists as Calve, Campan-
mi and others VINO will be heard in the
auditorium during the season under
private contracts will help pay for the
enjoyment Mayor Speer will afford the
masses. The percentage the city will
receive from the proceeds derived from
their concerts will go toward the talent
for the free Sunday concerts.

DENVER AND INTERURBAN RE.
cElvED WITH FAVOR AT
GREELEY MEETING.
OWNS RIGHT OF WAY
COMPANY WILL ExPEND $4,000, 900
WHEN s7oo, 900 WORTH OF
BONDS ARE SOLD.

Greeley, Colo.-The chief topic oil
conversation among business men here
is the railroad meeting of Tuesday
night, when the Denver & Interurban
Construction Company, through its of.
ficers. presented its plan for building
a line from Denver to Greeley.
President Reaser said statistics
proved that within ten years Greeley
would be city of 10000 and Fort Lup-
ton of 5000 people provided they were
connected by interurban lines with
Denver.
The officers stated that the COM
pany now owns all of It's private right
of-way. paralleling the Union Pacific,
between here and Denver and follow
ing the county wagon road The plan
is to build the road to a point three
miles north of Platteville. and from
there run lines eastward into the Big
Bend country and north to Greeley.
1t is planned to run cars every forty
five minutes and make the time of ex-
press trains between here and Denver
one hour and twenty minutes. Sixty
five per cent of the profit is expected
from freight and thirty-five per cent.
from passengers. The fare will be 2
cents mile and the freight rate two
thirds of that now charged by the
steam roads.
The company stands ready to put up
s1.SOO.000 as soon as 100000 in bonds
Is sold In Colorado. 1t is expected that
people along the road will subscribe
the bonds and it is said one Greeley
man has agreed to take $4,000 worth,
provided thirty other Greeley men will
do the same.
The officers of the company say the
road Is in no way connected with the
Union Pacific.

A New York judge has set a good
example by sending to prison for 80
days a chauffeur who used his en-
ployer's automobile without permits
sion and damaged it. He acted under
a statute which forbids willful or
malicious destruction of property, and
in rendering sentence declared that
hereafter II machine had been dam
aged to the extent Of ten cents by
q chauffeur's unauthorized use, he
would inflict punishment under that
law. A great deal of the reckless
driving is done by these irresponsible
men when alone and the public as
well as the owners of machines would
be benefited by swift punishment of
the offenders.

A Brothers. Duty.

There is no better test of . gentle
man than his treatment Of women.
Now to which ought every young man
to show the highest, truest gallantry !?
To whom ought he first to be NEST
true and loyal knight? To whom II
not to his own sisters? Do they not
come first in the circle OF those to
whom he owes honor? Have they not
the first claim on his affection? If he
is not respectful and loyal to his own
sisters. can he be at heart true gen.
tleman to any other woman? Can a
young man be manly and treat his
own sisters with less respect than he
treats other young ladies'? asks the
New York Weekly. His chivalry must
show itself first toward those who are
closest to him in natural ties. He
must show them the truest Difference.
He must treat them with that delicate
regard, that gentle, affectionate re-
,spect. that indicates the loftiest gal
lantry. He must consider himself their
true knight, whose Office it is to throw
about them every needed protection,
to serve them, and to promote their
highest good in every way. There is
no young man with one spark Of true
manliness who will not instinctively
defend his sister He will put himself
instantly between her and danger.
Neither is there any brother worthy
OF the name who will not defend the
honor of his sister If vile tongues
asperse it. But more than this is re-
quired of loyal brother. He should
make himself wall about his sister
to shield her from every evil and un-
holy influence
