SECRETARY WILSON VISITS
GLENWooD SPRINGS

From Fridays Daily Post.
Hon. James Wilson, secretary of ag-
riculture in President Roosevelt s cabi
net is in Glenwood today enjoying a
rest at the Hotel Colorado after wear
isome trip yesterday to Aspen where he
Investigated forestry matters and dis
cussed with mine owners and others the
plan of the government in the conser-
other natural resources to which the
government has only recently given its
Qttention.
The secretary returned TO Glenwood
last night accompanied by his secretary,
Jasper Wilson and Smith Riley, special
inspector for the government forestry
department.
When the Post man was presented to
Mr.. Wilson he said: 1--WE are anxious
to know all that is possible to know
about the forestry conditions and to
help the people to save for themselves
and the future as much of the timber
as possible for they haven't any too
| much now.
81 always enjoy these visits to Colo
Iado,' Secretary Wilson explained as
he started for the big hotel. "Its natur-
al resources are great and its people are
the most progressive type of American
citizenship. But l came here on bust
ness this time and the pleasure of be.
ing here naturally goes along with the
business. I am especially interested in
the efforts to conserve these great for
ests. If steps are not taken to prevent
the destruction of the forests, it would
seriously cripple the great mining in
dustry. These great belts of timber
are necessary to the development of
the mining industry. The forests are
needed right here at home. OF course,
when tree is ripe it should be cut
down and used. But more stringent
measures should be taken to protect the
forests as necessity for the develop
ments of the mining industry. Agri-
culture and mining are the state 8 prin-
eipal assets. The conservation of the
forests under the national forest sys-
TEN will be one of the principal aids
to the development of the mining in
dustry. Mining cannot be carried on
without plenty of TIMBER

God to Be Restored to Nations Coins

The responsibility for the omission
was placed at the door of President
Roosevelt, for only through an execu-
tive order can change be made in
designs for coins. This responsibility
the president readily assumed, but,
when adverse criticism began to come
from all quarters of the country and
religious and patriotic societies took
up the matter, he>decided to issue a
statement setting forth his reasons
for the action.
In this statement the president said
there was no warrant of law for the
inscription. Also he said that his own
feeling in the matter was due to his
Every firm conviction that to put such
a motto on coins, or to use it in any
kindred manner, not only does no
good, but does positive harm, and is in
effect irreverence which comes dan.
gerously close to sacrilege."
The president was firm that he
would not order the motto to be re-
placed unless directed to do so by
congress.
The presidents statement failed to
stem the tide of adverse criticism, and
when congress convened numerous
bills and resolutions were introduced
and proposed to make it unlawful to
issue coins without the inscription.

At the National Capital :
Gossip Of People and Events
Gathered in Washington
Gift to Chinaman

favor possible to bestow that gift be
taken to him.
All Nav is probably the best known
Chinaman in Washington. He is per-
mitted to reside in this country by spe-
cial act of congress. He entered the
service of Admiral Dewey when, as
commodore, Dewey commanded the
American fleet in the Orient. All
Nav was on board when the United
States squadron captured Manila. AS
a mark of respect to Admiral Dewey
congress passed a law excepting All
Nav from the exclusion laws.
Senator Stone first undertook, last
New Years day, to fulfill his mission
Of presenting the remembrance from
the brother in Manila. Upon that day
the Missourian thought to pay q call
of respect upon the admiral and trans.
nit the packet, also. Upon reaching
the Dewey residence he found all in
confusion. The heavy lace curtains
in the parlor had caught fire, threat
ening the destruction of the house and
menacing the safety of women guests
who were present. All Nav rushed
into the parlor, tore down the cur.
tains, extinguished the fire, saved the
house and possibly saved lives. But
he was badly, dangerously burned. He
was taken to the hospital, and the
commission intrusted to Senator Stone
could not be carried out until q few
DAYS ago

in the bill that the payment of tax
does not permit any cat to go upon
private property other than that oc.
cupied by it's owner If the author and
friends of the bill have devised a
means of collecting non-taxpaying cats
it is kept secret. 1t is rumored that a
fence.scaling brigade, armed with lad.
ders and butterfly nets, will be turned
loose to gather in the taxdodgers.
The crusade against cats Is being
led by Mr.. MacFarland because of the
disturbed state of mind caused him
while en- route home at nights by
thoughtless, discriminating cats.
1t is not thought that serious protest
will be entered against the proposed
law on constitutional grounds that
it is class legislation and is aimed at
the poor cats of the backyard variety,
while the cats of the well-to-do fami.
lies will be safe from prosecution, be-
cause of the protection of a home.

that it should reach the proper hands

Senator and Mrs. Stone were in Ma

Congressman Has Plan to Help Farmers

and that they shall do the work of cul

experts Of the department of agri.
culture. No additional appropriation
from congress will be required to test
Mr.. SCOTS plan, it is explained, as the
agricultural department has the requi

Mr.. Scott asserts that enough money
is being wasted by the department in
sending out farm bulletins and other
government documents to carry out his
idea. He says that much valuable in.
formation has been given by the ex.
perts in these publications, but their
contents are so little understood by
the farmers that they do not derive
the knowledge from them which they
should obtain as to the best methods
of growing corn, wheat hay and other
crops.

~ NISUI IN NSCGs
The drive to Nice is not only a short
but pleasant one. Mr.. Barnes, seated
by Lady Chartris, though chatting
alertly, keeps both his eyes and his
ears open.
Once or twice the American listens
intently, he thinks he hears pursuing
hoofs. But these blend into the noises
Of general traffic as they reach and
pass through the old town. Crossing
the river by the Pont Neuf and turning
down the Quai st. Jean, they drive
along the Avenue Massena nearly to
the sea.
Though visitors have for the last
month been leaving the great watering
place by the Mediterranean, there are
still enough sojourners to comfortably
fill the public gardens. The band is
playing, the night is only pleasantly
warm, and Lady Chartris seems in
high spirits as Barnes says to her:
"You can drop me anywhere now.
Only, where shall I meet you?"
AT the Hotel de la Mediterranee.
There Count Danella is doubtless wait
ing for me-" replies the hostess. Call

hands and dizzy brain behind her.

Yet several burning tears run down

Wild faces Of fury and hearts full Of
hate
They would curse the dear pigs, I'm
ashamed to relate.
They invoked all the planets and far
as they knew,
The fixed stars and comets, the sun
and moon, too.
Next the wraiths that inhabit the
winds and the floods,
Then they danced holy jigs in the
scantiest of buds.
But the pigs took no notice, but ate all
the more,
And the Druids saw Fate was now
hard by the door.
Then they prayed to the giants that
ravaged the isle
When ten foot Of spine was the height
of the style.
There was one who from Mona oft
waded to Wales,
And one who in coughin' produced the
wild gales.
Another in sport tried to bridge the
broad say,
The Causeway in Ulster bears witness
today
Then the one who at Powerscourt
drank up the fall,
An the one who complained Devils
Bowl was too small.
The priests cursed the pigs loud and
long, but no matter,
On the snakes and their eggs they
grew fatter and fatter.
Oh, those were great times when the
factions forgot
What side they were of, and what side
they were not
The thousand would follow all jeerin'
the while
The Druids who could them no longer
beguile
When rivers they'd reach as the Bann
or the Boyne,
Baptized, they the ranks of believers
would join.

bodies by token
The record for bathing his sairtship

And thousands who'd never been lath-

For the saint told them plainly for e'er
