The vital issues before the Am
erican people should not be lost sight
Of The trouble with the masses OF
the people is that they are apathetic
and forgetful, and it is doubtful II
one-half of them to-day could tell on
hand the name of the present vice
president of the United States. The
trusts and money jugglers band TO-
gether and stay banded together. and
SO they win. while we poor fools fol-
low off a dozen different false gods.
That is the difference.
Everybody knows. who know any
thing, that 1t is the trusts that are
pinching every man, woman and child
in America. and that no state Is being
squeezed harder by them than Colo
RADIO, and every thinking person also
knows that they will never be broken
up or properly curbed by the Repub-
lican party.
Take the item of meat alone. That
comes right home to us, as we all
have to eat meat. and many of us
raise it to sell. On the one hand the
beef trust is paralyzing our cattle in
dustry to larger extent than any law
ought to permit, and on the other
hand 1t is systematically robbing
every man, woman and child who con.
sumes bite Of meat, and every cattle
raiser and every butcher will tell you
this is true. Two years ago wnen
the price of beef at our markets all
over the country went up to figures
that pinched every family in the land
we were told by this great beef trust
manipulated by the Afmpurs and
others Of their ilk. that the cattle
raisers charged 80 much more for
their steers that the retail price OF

in a minute than for the welfare and
upbuilding Of Colorado In all their
lives. We assert that they are doing
cruel Injustice to the farmers, to the
cattlemen, to the home-builders and
to the miners. We further assert that
their claim, and Pinchot's claim, that
the trees hold the snow and thus as
sure to the farmer his water Tor irri'

is applied to the summer season IN
Colorado, which is when the farmer
wants and needs the water; that IN
point of fact at that time there Is no
snow in the timber, as anyone VINO
has lived long in Colorado KNOWS
that 1t lies in the summer months
above timber line and in the deep
Rulches where 1t has solldined into
ice and from thence melts slowly anu
rms down into the valleys, irrigat-
ing the farms and then on its restless
search for the sea. The accompany
ing photograph. taken in the montn
Of July, proves this to be true, and IL
will be noticed that there is no snow
in the timber, but no end OF 1t man

picture is Of the top of "silver Heels
peak in Park county, and Is iaAr
Illustration of any mountain range In
the state. We are indebted to MI.
James H. Myers. 40s Exchange
Bldg. Denver, a mining man OF long
experience. for the photo from Wnicn
the picture is made, and relative TO
the subject Mr.. Myers says:
"Tbe only way to conserve water
for irrigation is to get 1t into reser-
voirs as soon as possible after 1t CON.
mences to fow. The trees do not nolo
the snow after warm weather, out .ne
gorees of the mountains above tmuet
line do. The Forest Rangers clam
that they cut and sell to sawmiii men
only matured trees. when in point OF
fact 1t is we'll known and can pc reaa'
ily proven that as a general RUE Tue
only timber left after sucn a cuttihs
by these ignorant rangers Is the aeao
timber and small poles. The whoie
forestry department, as shown oy
Pinchot's own reports, is In the nanos
Of visionary theorists without prac-
tical knowledge, and the range riders
are simply tax-gatherers on horse
back"

WILL cows STOP GIVING ~,Lka

Addressing himself to large audi
ence of farmers. Mr.. Bryan referred
to news item that appeared in one
of the morning papers. He said:
"A press dispatch announces this
morning that Pennsylvania manu-
facturer of separators has given
notice to his employees that the fac
tory will close down for an extended
period If am elected. This is the
most discouraging threat that have
yet read. I had supposed that the
cows would go on giving milk under
a Democratic administration as well
as under Republican administra-
ton, but If as the result of my cleo
ton the cows are going to dry up in
November and not become fresh
again for four years. it will really be
a serious matter.
There must be some mistake
about this separator business. The
men may be manufacturing the separ-
ator that the Republican parry has
been using. for 1t has been using a
separator that has separated the
cream from the milk and 1t has given
the cream to the monopolies and the
skinned milk to the rest of the peo-
Pile. That kind of separator will no
longer be used and those who manu-
facture it may find their occupation
gone, but for the rest of the people 1t
will be a glad day. a day of great re-
joicing."

Univer Sity Drawn
Into Politics Now.


OF question which has often arisen
in a more or less aggravated form. And
the criticism Is not all for the anti
SRisher partisans, nor for the Repub-
lican party. The Democrats who 50
bitterly denounced the efforts OF poll
iticians to break into the University.
or of the University to break into pol-
tiles, as the case may have been. now
have near at home, and In their own
camp food for mature reflection.
We have today the spectacle OF one
Of the University professors. one Of
the strongest men OF the faculty. en-
gagged in an active candidacy for the
Democratic nomination for Cavern
or.
Not only is this true, but to the fun
damental fact of his candidacy Is
added the spectacle of a political ma
chine being formed among the gradu-
ates of the university, past and pres
ent, for the furtherance Of his candI-
dacy. So adroitly has this affair been
managed. so thoroughly polite has it
been engineered in every phase. that
the expert politician, while decrying
the fact that politics should have
been so skilfully woven into the Uni
versity, must stop and admire the
rrach'nation which Is expected 10 in
ure so largely to the political bene-
fit of one OF the big schools most coli
ossal figures.
That these conditions exist, rs re-
lated to both political parties, all cit
liens who place the good name and
prosperity of the University above
politics will sincerely deplore. Such
attacks as have been made upon Mr..
Swisher through the agency OF those
connected with the University will in
no way strengthen its standing or ada
to its popularity. That Mr.. Hodges
who for = dozen years has lowered "a
one of the Universlty's greatest as
sets of political and civic righteous
ness has at length lent himself to n
scramble for political preferment Is
alike deplorable. For q time the
Hodges candidacy was purely receipt
i've. 1t has now assumed the aspect
of man who, supposedly above the
level of politics, is willing despite the
dignity of his position, to ignorantly
or otherwise lend himself to the fur
thcrance of the political schemes OF
an ambitious and selfish band of pol.
iticlans These observations are given
with due respect for the rights of the
gentlemen in question. At the same
time there is but one way to divorce
the University from politics. That
way is to divorce 1t.

Whether or not the criticisms then

Of this article to discuss. There u
however, undeniably a present situo-
ton which should be found very di,-
tasteful to those who favor the antiro

fronting as 1t does the whole neonia

To begin with. persons directly and
officially connected with the uniye--
sity have taken an open and even VIC
inus part in the controversy between
Mr.. swisher and Mr.. scherr in their
campaign for the gubernatorIal nomi-
nation. A member of the university
faculty. who happens at the Same
time to he editor of a Morgantown
daily paper. has been the most con-
spicuous figure in the campaign of
vilitication and abuse that has been
carried on in the frantic efforts that
have been put forth to defeat Mr.
swisher. The work undertaken by
this attache of the university has not
merely descended to the lowest level
of politics. but has stopped to vile
partisanship worthy OF the .preten-
sions Of the meanest politician, and
entirely beneath the dignity of one
whose voice is heard in the councils
Of great and respected institution
OF learning. Allied with the man
above referred to and himself in more
ways than one connected with the
university, Is another Morgantown
citizen, the resident member of the
board of regents. who has been equal
~ active in the attempt to discred-
1t and defeat Mr.. Swisher.
These things vii not tend to
strengthen the faith of the pople II
the University. It is undeniably true
that this spirit does not speak the sen
timent of those who rule the affairs
of the University. But as long as
those who do rule Its affairs permit
mamebrs of the faculty to assume at
titudes of such pronounced partisan
ship, the impression will go abroad
and Will gain in belief that there i.
something wrong at the sent of learn

exercised in dealing wit hthe essen
t!als which constitute the standard of
its representatives. 1t would be hard
to circumscribe fairly and definitely
the political bounds which the collie
gian may with propriety assume as
his rights. But there is no question
that the Morgantown example has al
ready far overstepped the most liberal
construction of political ethics as de-
fined for the school man.
