Finch and DUDLEY
WELL PLEASED

"Best day we ever had. "Ncv-
or was treated better" There S
fine bunch of boosters in Glen
wood" These and many other
similar expressions came from the
Denver trio of visitors to Glen
wood last Sunday. That was
surely a lively bunch. Lee Ha-
ney of the Colorado Midland.
Bide Dudley and Doc (Bird)
Finch, all of Denver.
They reached Glenwood san
day morning and up to the time
they left at I O'Clock it was one
continual round of pleasure. They
saw the boys coastlng down
Eighth street and were not salts
fed until they had tried the sport
Chris Keck rustled boD-sied and
started to climb the hill with Bide
and Doc while llaney stood at the
foot to photograph the bunch
But Charley Keck was the pilot
and he dumped the bunch at Ben
nett avenue. Charley says some
thing happened to one of the run
uers, but tEv boys still believe It
was part Of the program. 1h"
next time they were more succuss-
fui and pronounced the experience
lot more exhiliratins than slid
ing down the banistcrs il the biz
new spaper office where they pat
in their time.
In the afternoon all took a swim
in the pool, accompanied by c. M.
keck. The experience was very
nice after they got started, but the
start was not easy. The boys
gave Dudley the lower portion OF
a two-piece bathing suit and al
ter he had looked it over he asked
"Well, how's fellow to get into
this thing" "Why, don't you
see the sleeves?" asked Keck.
Then Bide slipped his arms in
where his legs should have gone
and then attempted to put. the
concern over his head. When
he was well blindfolded and al
most exhausted the attendant
came with the balance of his suit
and innocently asked Bide if he
hadn't lost something. Bide said
he had lost all the religion he
brought here with him, and then
the other boys took pity on him
and soon had him ready for the
hot water.
They said they never had tried
anything that was quite as nice
Das the pool swim. Whey they
came out there was another hitch

American Live Stock Assn To
Go On Record Again In
This Matter
.P|NcXoT WILL attend

Denver, Jan. 15.-One of the
important questions for consider
alton at the international conven-
tlon of the American Live Stock
association, which will meet here
next Tuesday, is President Roose-
velt's policy regarding the public
lands, the forest reserves and
ranges. This organization went
on record last year in favor of
leasing the public domain as an
advantage toward conservation of
the country's natural resources,
and 1t is expected that similar res
olutions will be adopted at the
coming convention and commit
tee appointed to go to Washington
and urge upon congress the enact
ment of laws for the frlrtherance
OF the administrations policy.
Clifford Pinchot, chief United
States forester, it is announced
will attend the convention and is
expected to bear a message from
President Roosevelt to the stock
men.
Murdo Mckenzie. who has been
at the head of the organization
since 1906, has declined to contin-
ne as president on account of
stress of private business, and it
is regarded probable that that II.
a. Jastro, first vice-president, will
be advanced to the presidency.

COLORADO DAIRYMEN.

Denver, Jan. l5.-The cOnven-
tion of Colorado dairymen to be
held i'll Denver, Monday, January
20, promises to be one of the best
ever held in the state. 1t has
been number of years since any
thing of the kind has been ar
ranged and the program will be
of much interest touching, as it
will, evehy phase of the dairy in
dustry.

extra suit of underwear. Well.
we III not go into detailed expla-
nation of the trouble, further than
to say that Haney is still trying
to locate the sewing machine that
played the mischief with his un-
derwear while he was enjoying
himself in the pool.
The Banquet.
In the evening the boys were
treated to a banquet at the Hotel
Glenwood through the courtesy OF
the town council. Mayor Schwarz
presided as host and introduced
Father O'Dwyer as toastmaste'
1t is needless to say that this po-
sition was filed to the perfect
satisfaction of all. Father
O'Dwyer made few pleasing re-
marks and then introduced Mr..
Dudley. who entertained the
crowd with some very good sto-
res. Mr.. Finch was next called
and he gave one of his popular
chalk talks which was greatly ap-
preciated. the last picture being
one of the mayor.
Then the dinner prepared by
Mine Host Smith was brought out
and this was also much enjoyed.
Following is the menu:
Caviar Canape
Oyster Soup
Celery Olives
Baked Halibut a Lee Haney
Parisienne Potatoes
Rhode Island Finch,
Doc Bird Style
Mashed Potatoes
Green Peas en- Timbal
Smoke Wreath Salad, Bide Vie
Ice Cream Orange Cake
Fruit Nuts Ralslns
Coffee
Then there were remarks from
Austin Gavin and then Mr.. Ha-
ney was called. He told of the
very cordial feeling of the Colo
RADIO Midland management for
Glenwood Springs and Of his own
personal love for the town. He
thanked the mayor and council
for their splendid hospitality and
promised to do all in his power
to bring travel to Glenwood dur
ing the coming summer.
In his preliminary remarks
Mayor Schwarz elaborated on the
virtues of Glenwood's hot min
eral water as he always does when
opportunity offers. He is always
recommending this water for
something. This time he recon-
mended it for insomnia. He told
of man troubled with insomnia
who came here for relief. He said
the fellow secured a room over one
of the Glenwood stores and then

BRYAN WILL CONFER WITH
PROMINENT BUSINESS MEN
REGARDING SELECTION OF
A CAMPAIGN MANAGER.

FAIRVIEW FARM, Lincoln, Neb.,
July 16.-Bryan today sent invitations
to six big business men, who are no,
known as politicians or even strict
party men, requesting them to visit
him here, or if that is impossible to
meet him in Chicago July 25, when he
will be IN that city to attend the meet
ing of the subcommittee of the nation

Bryan desires the advice Of these
men in matters relating to a manager
of the campaign and wishes to give
the business element a voice in this
matter
J. is learned from an authoritative
source that he will make a famous
speaking tour Of the east, visiting the
main cities.
Today workmen began the work OF
grading the road to Fairview Farm in
preparation for the Bryan notification
ceremonies, August II. Bryan today
expressed qualification over the receipt
Of a telegram from w. H. Dunphy of

in which Eugene Tausick, democratic
candidate, was elected by a large ma
jority.

in every branch where a cut could be
made without inviting serious compli-
cations. Hence. the question now is
the raising of revenue sufficient tc
meet the absolute exigencies of their
properties.
Another justification for raising Ger.
tain rates will be the necessity OF
meeting greatly increased operating
expenses incident to the handling OF
this falls business, and the fact that
in many instances salaries which wert
reduced last spring will be restored
to their former basis. Notice of an in
crease Of rates on packing house anG
grain products August has already
been given.
While rates on certain commodities
notably cOttonseed oil, will be raised
as a result of the Louisville confer
ence, it can be said that the general
question of rate increase will be treat
ed very delicately, and no rate raised
that can be allowed to remain as now
