Colorado Railroad Progress.

Denver. liberalization Of railroads
seems to be the order OF .he day and
numerous Colorado roads are now pre-
pairing to apply the Juice" TO parts OF
their lines. Gigantic power companies
are throw ing their currents all over the
state, rendering electricity compare
lively cheap commodity. and as II
is more available in some ways
than steam power, It will be used very
extensively In the near future.
The Colorado a. Southern railroad
has about completed Its electric line to
Boulder, Eldorado Springs and other
points. Twelve big new cars are being
finished for this service. and beginning
MAY LIST. or thercabouts, hourly ears
will run between Denver and Boulder
The cars are to be delivered In Den
yer April 25th and T. is thought pos
sible TO pu, them In use by May list.
This electric line built by the Colo
RADIO 4 southern follows right along
the ne of the steam road, and will be
devoted Utmost entirely to passenger
traffic. The ears will enter Denver
over the Twenty.thlrd street yiaduct
and pass over Arapahoe street This
will affotd suburban service 10 such
places as Harris and other country
sites near Denver.
The Mo1at railroad is now figuring
with the Central Power Company for
electric power In handling heavy trains
over mountain grades. Electric power
enables trains TO take the grades with
comparative ease and II the present
plan works out AS anticipated the
heavy freight trains may all be taken
across tho steep grades OF the divide In
this manner. Electric engines would
be employed at the necessary points TO
take the trains over.
Work Oh the Moirat road proper is
now progressing rapidly and steel rails
are now being laid on the other side
OF YErmony. A tracklaying machine
Is being pressed into service, making IL
possible 10 lay about two miles per day
About 1000 men will be employed TO
take the line into Steamboat Springs
as soon as the weather settles.

PlNcHoT's FOREST POLICY,
He Believes 1t win Be lndorsed When
Understood.

Washington.-Chie Forester Clifford
Pinchu, OF the Department of Agricul-
ture has had his attention called to an
article in the Pocatello UdahoD Trib-
une To the effect that he has notified
President Roosevelt that hereafter he
would not make a punching bag" of
himself and would decline most re-
spectfully, but still firmly. to further
attempt To defend The governments
forest policies in public debate.
Mr. P!nchot says of this item that
the exact contrary is true, and adds
For several years | have sought OPP
pOrtunitios TO meet western people at
public meetings and discuss with them
freely all questions at issue between
them and the forest service, in order
to reach wise and true conclusions
Nothing that | have ever done has
yielded such good returns in the way
Of improvements In the service and bet
ter understanding of the governments
forest policy ON the part of the people
In the course Of the work IL is true
that had TO meet attacks of all kinds,
some fair aud open, some otherwise
But have found almost invariably that
a western audience wants the truth
and kno - the truth when the truth is
presented to IT,
Il believe the present acceptance of
the forest policy throughout the West
is largely due 10 the fact that the mem
bors of he forest service have ever
been willing to take up the questions
involved Inbllcly, with those most con
cerncd IN having thcm settled in the
right way So far from having notified
the President that proposed to discon-
tinue meeting the people of the western
states, | reported TO him last fall the
excellent results these meetings have
had, and that ! was planning for FUR
ther OF the same kind next summer.
just so long as ! am able To travel and
speak and just so long as the
western people are willing TO hear
me, | propose to discuss with
them face to face any differ
ences we may have, any method that
they or | can suggest for making the
national forests moro useful TO them,
and any shortcomings in the forest pol.
icy or it's extension
Unless the western people approve
the forest policy il can not succeed.
Unless they know exactly what II Is
they can not approve Il. Unless we Of
the service know where II falls short
we can nor devise aud put In operation
the necessary improvements, Taken
altogether there is scarcely any other
single thing which does so much good
as public meetings for open discussion.
anu there is no other piece Of work !
have to do that would not abandon be-
f1rc ! would abandon this, Whenever
the western people want 10 get at the
forest service for any possible purpose,
they can get at 1t directly without an
intermediary Of any kind"

Peoples Party Platform.

St. Louis.-The platform adopted by
the Peoples party convention declares
that the Issuing OF money is func
tion of the government alone that
should not be delegated TO any corpO
ration or industry. The demand Is
made that money be issued direct to
the people without the intervention of
banks and be full legal tender for
an debts. public and private. The
working OF the national banking law
is criticised and the demand made that
the power to issue money be taken
from the banks. The Aldrich bill is de,
nounced as IA method by which the
nation and the people can both be
robbed. II has not in Il an intelligent
purpose that is honest"
The Fowler bill is also denounced.
The plank ON trusts demands that
the government own and control the
railroads. and all public utilities which
In their nature are monopulies. own
orshop Of the general telegraph and tel
ephonc lines and parcels post are
also asked.
The taxation Of monopoly privileges
while they remain In private hands is
another feature of this plank. Other
planks favored initiation and rcferen'
dun and tho power to recall from Of

lives.

Cook Scores Plnehot.

In the House on the agricultural bill,
Representative Cook challenged the
statement recently published by For
ester Pinchot that the receipts OF his
bureau are In excess Of the eNpcndi'

pinohot before the agricultural com
mittee that expenses of his bureau for
the year ending June 30. 1907, were
s6i 900 In excess Of the receipts,
II. predicted that the receipts for
the current year would not show an
Increase. nv predicted by pinchot. but
ON the contrary, would show a de
crease on account Of the inactivity In
mines usually using lafg. quantities
u timber. Mr.. Cook said further that
the price placed on mining timber BY
the bureau. So per thousand. IN unreaB'
onabl, and excessive.
He called attention to the arbitrary
ruling OF the bureau requiring mining
companies purchasing timber To cut
and remove II from the forests within

Now what We want In Colorado In

BRITISH PREMIER RESIGNS.
viii Be Succeeded by Herbert H. As
quith, Chancellor Of Exchequer.

London.-Great Britain Sunday
night is in peculiar position, being
without either premier or ministry.
The long expected resignation of Sir
Henry Campbell-Bannerman, the prime
minister, was officially announced. Ac-
cording to the court circular, he re-
signed on the urgent recommendation
of his medical advisers. AS the con
stitution of the country provides no
automatic successor. it resting with the
King to choose new head of the gov
ernment, and in accordance with Gus
tom and precedent. the whole cabinet
resigns with the premier, no step to
appoint ministry can be taken until
Herbert Ii. Asquith, chancellor of the
oNchequer, who has been summoned to
Biarritz for the purpose, has seen the
King.
The position of the country is quite
Unprecedented, there being no previous
example of change occurring in the
premiership while the sovereign was
abroad. On this account the course OF
procedure TO be followed is in some
doubt.
Sir Henrys condition remains un-
changed, according to the physicians
bulletin posted today. The King. in
telegraphing his acceptance Of the pre-.
mier's resignation, conveyed an eX-
preston Of his regret and esteem, with
best wishes for Sir Henry's recovery.
Chancellor Asquith. who has been
acting premier for some time past,
will leave for Biarritz Immediately. At
cabinet meeting, specially called, he
submitted the premier's resignation
and the situation was fully discussed.
Asquiths accession TO the premier
ship will ne well received by all sec.
tions of his party with the possible eX.
ception of the extreme radical and la
Dor men, who are inclined TO see
in his imperialistic views the end of
some of their aspirations for Socialistic
reforms.
Similar feelings are likely to prevail
in the Irish benches of the house,
where he is not regarded as sure
