areas of the forest in order to save
the government domain for late fall
pasture. Just why such protection as
this would be necessary if the claim
that there was plenty of feed without
resorting to the forest were true 10
difficult to understand.
W. l.. Girdner told of the disposition
of cattle to scatter and roam quite
distance from the place where they
were left. When asked why this was SO
he created a laugh by saying he did not
know as he did not understand COW
language. Questioned by Mr.. Ward he
said the custom of stockmen to put salt
in the high localities had a tendency to
lead the stock to these high areas. Mr..
Knaebel turned the tables on Fate by
asking him how the placing of salt in
the high places infiu enced cattle that
had never been up there to seek the
high places in the forests. Fate was in
a corner and he replied by saying they
followed the other cattle. "Then tho
salt has nothing to do with it?' sug-
gested Mr.. Knaebel and Girdner was
again forced to admit that he was not
up on COW language.
Senator Ammons appeared at
a very opporune time (pure-
ly accidental, of course) and was
placed on the stand. Mr.. Ward was
very considerate of Ammons and his
candidacy and after giving him an op-
oorunity to state what official positions
he had held he asked him a few ques-
lions about the stock business. Ammons
made great play to the galleries but
stripped of the egotism and personality
his testimony might be reduced to a
statement that the eating out Of the
grass and the tramping of the ground
by the stock into hard mass is more
conducive to reforestation than any
other conditions and the further state
ment that cattlemen cannot now borrow
money because of the uncertainty Of
the forest regulations-two statements
which will receive scanty belief in this
country.
Other witnesses were Trout, Shippee.
Williams, Finley, Shuttleworth and
Zimmerman. OF all the testimony
Lights was perhaps the most damaging
to his interests. The testimony will
now he submitted to Judge Lewis and
whatever his decision may be an ap-
peal will probably be taken to the
United States supreme court.

TOO MUCH vEN1soN.
From Wednesdays Daily Post.

Ed Miner was arrested yesterday ly
Chief Game Warden F. A. Cord III for
hay ing in n.s possession more deer than
the law will allow. The arrest took
place at Carbondale and Miner was ar
rayed before Justice of the Peace,
VIM. Pauly Of Carbondale: He was
fined $25 and costs which amounted to
$s4.15 besides having the game confs'
Gated. Mrs. Miner was. in company
with her husband and they had one
deer to her credit. Mrs. Miner, how.
over, was not arrested on the account of
her having pleaded with her husband
not TO shoot the third deer. -
1t might be wen to- state that when
a violater is caught with too much game
in his possession the game is forfeited
in addition to the fine. On account Of
the activity Of the game department,
there have been very few violations Of
the game laws this year.

the people of this country. The Italians,
who are noted for the many entertain
ing sports in their native land, started
the ball rolling soon after the pro.
gram of the children and from that
moment there was something doing on
the streets of Glenwood. Bottles were
suspended in the air and men blinl.
folded tried to break the bottle AMI
gather in the money they contained.
Sword contests were also given a
prominent place in the program and
the ladies as well as the men, showed
they had not forgotten the practice
taken years ago in their native homes.
The local committee was everywhere
in evidence and if the people are not
having the time of thier lives it is not
the fault of the committee. Various
games and sports are provided and the
affair will wind up tonight with a
grand concert in the opera house by the

Prspars Il 1t Homo BY Shaking In

What will appear very interesting to
many people here is the article taken
from a New York daily paper, giving
a simple prescription, as formulated
by a noted authority, who claims that
he has found positive remedy to
cure almost any case of baekache or
kidney or bladder arrangement, in
the following simple prescription, if
taken before the stage of Bright's dis
ease:
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half
ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce;
Compound Syrup Sarsparilla three
ounces. Shake well in bottle and
take in teaspoons doses after each
meal and again at bedtime.
A well-known druggist here at
home, when asked regarding this pre-
scription, stated that the ingredients
are all harmless, and can be obtained
at small cost from any good prescrip-
tion pharmacy, or the mixture would
be put up if asked to do So He fur
ther stated that while this prescript-
ion is often prescribed in reumatic a.
flictions with splendid results, he
could see no reason why it would not
be a splendid remedy for kidney and
urinary troubles and backache, as it
has a peculiar action upon the kidney
structure. cleansing these most impor-
tant organs and helping them to sift
and filter from the blood the foul ac-
ids and waste matter which cause
sickness and suffering. Those of our
readers who may suffer can make no
mistake in giving it trial.

KNOCKOUT FOR TOWN MARSHAL
From Tuesdays Daily Post.

From Tuesdays Daily Post.
In the street games held yesterday
in celebration of Columbus day Mar
shall c. H. Weidenhammer received ;
heavy blow from club or baseball bat
which played havoc with his facial
beauty. The game consisted in sus-
pending jugs from rope stretched
across the street and allowing man
after being blindfolded, to approach
with club and try to smash the jugs,
the prize for the successful accom-
plishment of this feat being gold
coin deposited in one of the jugs.
A man named Thomas Madden who
says he is Midland fireman was one
of the contestants in the game and
after approaching to where he believed
the jug to be hanging he undertook to
land terrific blow, the club slipping
from his hand and striking the mar.
tshal, breaking his nose and badly
bruising the upper lip.
Marshal Weidenhammer was at once
cared for by DR.. Horan and today is
able to be ON the streets although
looking somewhat the worse for the en-
counter. He does not blame Madden
however, as he pronounces the affair an
unfortunate accident and says had he
not been in the path Of the club it
would certainly have killed child
standing just behind him. The blow
was sufficient to have. broken Weiden-
hammer 8 skull had it struck little
higher up and today the marshal is
congratulating himself that he is alive
and that by taking punishment himself
he saved the life of an innocent child.
Whom Madden observed the result of
what he declares to have been purely
an accident he hurried to Weidenham-
mer 8 home and asked to be allowed to
pay the Doctors bill and seemed very
penitent over his act. His earnestness
and apparent honesty made him many
friends but later in the evening Mad
den forfeited the good opinions Of the
people Try getting into trouble with an
Italian who accused him Of trying to
steal his watch.
Today Madden was before Judge
Hedden on the charge Of robbery pre-
fcrred by the Italian, Antonio Carluc-
ci. and the evidence being very much
against him he was bound over to the
district court in the sum of $500 in
default of which he will be furnished
board at the expense of the county for
the next 80 days or until, the sitting
of the court in November.

EVIDENCE IN FRED LIGHT CASE.

, from Frilay's Daily Post.
The hearing of the testimony of Fred
Light in his contention with the govern
ment over the right of the latter to
prohibit him from grazing his cattle
on the forest reserve without having
paid grazing fee was held in Glen
wood yesterday before United States
Commissioner C. G. Rowe.
Mr.. Light was represented by AttOr-
ney Ethelbert Ward of Denver and
coached by Fred johnson who from the
beginning has assumed more interest in
the stockmen than have some of the
most rabid of the newspaper men who
are never quite so happy as when de
nouncing the government. The gov
ernment side of the case was looked af
ter by Ernest Knaebel assistant dis
trict attorney who did not interpose
many objections to the testimony of
Light and his witnesses, evidently re-
garding the evidence of tool title i'm
portance to justify vigorous opposition
to it.
1t will be remembered that in the
first place Light agreed to refuse to
take out permit and to allow his
stock to 60 upon the forest reserve and
thus to supply the foundation for
test case between the government and
the stockmen.
i When the first complaint was drawn
which was in the nature of an agreed
Statement of facts the papers were
drawn to represent Light as having
"caused" his cattle to go upon the
forest reserve.
Light 3 attorneys would not agree to
this and the papers were modified to
say that Light IS cattle had been in the
habit of grazing upon the forest reserve
and when he turned them out in the
spring he did SO with the knowledge
that they would go on the reserve,
thereby indirectly causing them to do
80. With this agreement the parties
both consented to submit their conten-
tions to the federal court and yet
Light in his testimony yesterday de-
MED that it was his intention to per
init his cattle to Craze ON the reserve
saying he had told his men to keep
his cattle Of the reserve. He even ad-
mitted to going on the reserve once
for the purpose of driving his cattle
on but said he did not find any of his
stock at that time. This testimony
which was in direct conflict with
what Light formerly agreed to depend
on to win his case looks very inconsist-
ent and bad for Light.
Light by his witnesses yesterday
sought to prove that there was sufficient
range outside the national forest for all
cattle ranging in the. country from
Aspen to Carbondale and that if the
eovernnent should fence the forest the
cattle would all do well without the
-, Of the reserve grass. In this ehort

cOLoRED MAN'sLE1TER

-Glenwood Springs, Colo, Oct. 9, 1905
To the Editor of the Glenwood Post:
Sir:-In last Mondays issue of the
Post appeared the following short but
very pertinent editorial, one that
should have attracted the attention of
every well meaning and right think
ing voter in the county Irrespective of
race or color, it was as follows:
"It is difficult for the northern Dem
ocrats to bid for the negro vote while
southern Democrats keep on disfran-
chising it,"
The above editorial expresses the true
negro vote and the Democratic party.
And how any sane colored man can or
will lend any assistance by word or
deed toward aiding the Democracy is a
mystery not only to me, but to thous-
ands of other intelligent voters of my
race.
1t is an established political fact
that the Democratic party is unquali-
idly opposed to the negro's uplift, no
matter whether he lives down in the
cotton belt of the South or the broad
prairies of the west. 1t is a matter
of record beyond any dispute that every
law that is upon the statute book in
state or nation, favorable to my peo-
pie was placed there by the Republican
party while on the other hand every
law to the colored mans disadvantage
have been placed upon tho statute
books in those states where the Dem
ocratic party has in the past and al
present is in power.
Now what are We to expect Of Mr.
Bryan if he is elected, will the Dem
ocratic party throughout the South do
away with its obnoxious "Jim-crow
laws" or will they make any attempt
to enforce the thirteenth, forteenth and
fifteenth amendments to tho coHtitu-
ton? The amendments that were
,assed for the expressed purpose of
giving not only to the colored man
but every man square deal? Not
en- your life, about the only thing the
Democratic negro will get will be
few political plums. now held 10y men
of their color, who by their training g
and general worth, were placed there
by the Republicans. About half
dozen well kept, slick, pompious fel-
lows with no training, less principles,
would get an appointment to some Of
fee and we other millions left to suf-
fer at the hands of an unjust negro
hating party. which now controls and
has controlled the south since the time
Of Grant. No-sir, you can't make me
believe that any great number Of my
people are ingrates. We have proved
our loyalty ON the field of battle, we
have too many friends and relatives
buried in southern burying grounds,
who lost their lives in the def ense OF
this country an dour freedom.
In order to confuse some of the
colored people the Democratic party
has employed an army Of spell-binders
to 60 through the free east, north and
west and preach Brownsville. O.

tic negroes preaching Brownsville down
