thought I'd take the last half"

ernor Harper realized that the man
in front of him was in dead earnest.
He realized that blood in this case
was a whole lot thicker than water
and he talked to the boy as only Gov
ernor Harper could talk to a man
under such circumstances. He told
him that 1t would be impossible for
the state to change prisoners, that
his brother would be compelled to
serve out the term, that there was NO
way under the Colorado law whereby
one could be punished for the crimes
of another. The big brother stood
| twisting his hat and thinking Of the
boy at Canon and of the mother in
Boston while he realized that his in
tended offer OF help for both could
not be accepted. Then he asked II a
pardon could be issued.
You know 1t was his first offense,
governor, even II he had been guilty"
When told how pardons were Sc
cured and told that there was little
doubt OF the brothers guilt the big
brother then asked the he might be
transferred to the reformatory at
Buena Vista and taken away from
the influence of the older convicts and
prisoners.
When told that the law made no pro-
vision for such transfers he was we'll
nigh broken up: Governor talked with
him a long time and promised that
the state would do Its best to help his
brother reform.
After thanking the executive the
over-grown, uneducated, red-headed
Polander that he was, turned and re-
allied that he had done his best to
offer himself as a sacrifice, left the
building weeping.

fellow was sent to the benitentiary
was one of robbery. He conspirsd

of $3.50. His part of the money was
on him when he was captured thirty
minutes later.

Denver, July 28.-The love of Da-
mon and Pythias was never more full
ly exemplified than it was yesterday
when Simeon Lando appeared before
Governor Harper after having trav-
eled all the way from Portland, Ore,
and asked to take his brothers place
in the penitentiary at Canon City. His
brother is serving sentence for burg
larry and the Oregon brother does not
believe him guilty.
His brother is Louis Lando. He
was sent up from here three years
ago. There is little doubt of his
guilt though Simeon believes him
guiltless and declares his love for
him. Also because of an aged mother
back in Boston he desires to share
the punishment for the crime.
This seemingly unheard of PROPOSE
tion surprised Governor Harper as
much as any proposition that has
ever been put before him during the
time that he has held the official
reins of Colorado.
At about 10 o'clock yesterday morn
ing large, overgrown, red headed
chap presented himself to Secretary
Montgomery and asked to see the gov
ernor. Governor Harper has rule
that all callers can see him. He Is
not so busy that he cannot see those

and the big red-headed chap ambled

What is it. my friend?' asked the
governor with smiling face as he
looked at the awkward man in front
of him and realized that his visitor
was not accustomed to meeting Off
cials.

INDUSTRIAL CONDITIONS ARE
EVERYWHERE IMPROVING
More Inqutries For Property In The Canon City Dsrc
Now Than At ANY Other Time Since The Panic
of f19O7--A New Era of Prosperity Opening Up.

There has been a gradual increase in
the business of the Pittsburg district.
1t is not what might be construed as
a boom, but a good, steady growth,
and the trade is gradually recovering
the position it had before the financial
depression. One of the head officers
of the Carnegie Steel company asked
this week what was the outlook for a
general and most complete resumption
said:
THE Carnegie Steel mills will be
running full time inside of two weeks.
This is not surmise, but is based on
facts that I have at hand. It is ex-
pected that there also will be gem
eral resumption along other lines in
other mills. 1t is certain that once
business resumes its normal sway,
ity."
In Chicago and the northwest there
is a gradual return to normal en-
ployment of labor and a steady en-
largement of business activities and 1t
is generally believed that the scope
of industry will shortly approximate
what it was two years ago. Charles M.
Schwab, president Of the Bethlehem
Steel corporation, said a few days
ago, Il have been talking nothing but
financial and Industrial optimism since
my return from Europe, and that is
the only way I can take Of the out
look. From now on things are going
to grow better all round, and business
is bound to improve. We are in for a
good time of certain prosperity. Trade
and industry will surely become brisk
er and brisker. There Is nothing the
matter with America. We are simply
going too fast"
Colorado, in common with the other
states of the union, Is about to enter
upon a new epoch of industrial
growth and Canon City. with her mag
nificent climate and splendid resources
will get her full share OF the in
creased immigration which the new
order of things will bring to this
state.

REMARKABLE TUBELCULOSIS
TEST-SPLENDID RESULT

Richard Houle, Pure Food Inspector
and Health Oficer, has just completed
the first test Of dairy cows for traces
of tuberculosis as ordered by the city
council. The examination as made is
so thorough and exhausting as to
leave no question of doubt as to the
health of the animals examined.
In the case OF the cows used In the
dairy conducted by A. T. Richardson
No. 1907 Harrison avenue, the test be-
gan at o'clock a. m, lasting 81 hours,
temperature OF each animal being BAk-
en- ten times, ending at four O'Clock
p. m. the following day.
Mr.. Houle made 40 records Of tenn
perature In all.
The temperature of the animal 10
an infallible test of its health. -Four
tests were made before the tubercu-
Hne virus was injected, and six after
injection. In case Of any tubercular
faint, a rapid rise in the temperature
is shown after the virus Is in the cir
culation, and a feverish condition in
evitably results.
Mr.. Houle began the test on the
seventeen milk cows comprising the
dairy of A. T. Richardson at eight
o'clock a. m, also taking the tempera-
ture at II a. m. 2:30 p. m. and $50 p.
m. when the tuberculine virus was in
jected. The thermometer was then
read at a. m, 8 a m, II a. m, 1880
p. m. 2:30 p. m. and p. m.
The cows in nearly every case
showed 1O2 degrees after the close
of a hot day. The virus being inject
ed at the close Of the day, in place Of
a fever on the following morning, or
any rise In the temperature, without
exception they registered form one TO
two degrees lower. gaining normal
again at the close OF the day.
This is splendid record for Mr..
Richardson's cows, and proves beyond
any question OF doubt their perfect
health condition. Mr.. Houle shows his
and thoroughness in his
work and has received a commenda-
tory letter from Charles G. Lamb
state veterinary.

A prominent real estate agent re-
marked to the Rally Record a day or
two ago that more inquiries were COM
ing in from eastern people in relation
to property ir the Canon City district
now than at any time since the panic
of a year ago, and he expressed the
opinion that as soon as the crops
were gathered in the agricultural
states a great many home seekers
would visit the Arkansas valley with
a view of locating here.
Fremont county has received great
deal of valuable advertising in the
central west during the last few years
that is beginning to bear fruit and we
may expect a considerable immigra-
ton from that quarter within the next
twelve months, indeed, the outlook
was never so encouraging in that re-
spect as it is at present
Property here is bound to appre-
ciate, rather than depreciate, in value
in the immediate future and few peo-
pie can be found who are willing to
sell, except at a fancy price.
From all over the land comes the
good tidings that an unmistakable and
abundant wave of prosperity is sweep
ing over the country. Mills are begin
ming to run full blast, crops are bump
ers everywhere, the railroads are TAX
ing on more men and the entire nation
with one accord gives vent to the ex-
preston that commercial revival Is
at hand.
The business affairs of the country
are now on sounder basis than they
have been for many months past,
trade conditions are improving, and.
barring accidents, there may be ex-
pected a steady increase from this
time on.
Broadly speaking, those factories
which directly fill the daily needs of
the people are running almost on nor
NAL lines. Plants which make ma
chinery and supplies for other factor
les and for the railroads have been
hardest hit, but even in some of these
there, is a gradual expansion of opera
tions.

STATE PAPERS
ARE BOOMING
OUR NEE TING

The following is from the Grand
Junction Sentinel:
The State Editorial association is
going to have its summer meeting at
Canon City lin the course Of . few
weeks. We would very much like to
be present, but have made other plans
for a little outing. 1t does one good to
attend meeting of the craft, 1t bright
ems every individual member OF the as
sociation.
You'll meet Guy Hardy, the presi-
dent, who will do all in his power for
the entertainment of the editors, as
the president of the association and as
a citizen of the host city; and also Joe
Lawless, one of the best ever, secre-
tary of the association; and Holmes, of
the Avalanche, of Glenwood, who
never misses a meeting; and Hosmer
of the Fort Morgan Herald and dozens
more. And they talk genuine business
now days.
They don't go about any more with
a biscuit and a piece of blueberry pie
In their pants and enough change for a
1ve cent cigar. They are. at least the
most OF them, especially those of the
bunch who have stuck to their last"
getting on the shady side of the street.
They walk slower, talk less and take a
little more time to think over the old
days of Colorado Journalism. It will be
a good meeting, this summer meeting
at Canon City, and every publisher in
western Colorado, not now identified
with the association should go and
meet his brethren of the quill and the
scissors.

COLORADO IS A NATURAL
BREEDING PLACE

There Is probably no place ON earth
where better natural conditions ex-
list for perfecting breeds OF live stock.
1t is here that the greatest canta-
loupes in the world are raised. Our
potatoes are appreciated as is shown
by the fact that they are used on
the dining cars OF eastern roads: our
wheat has high percentage Of glutin.
and our sugar beets have more sugar.
The eyes OF the world are just opening
to the fact that the arid west has ma
tural conditions which are Lot excell-
ed anywhere. In substance the reputa-
ton we 80 justly enjoy IL attributed
directly to climate and an almost un-
