A Boost for the West.

We have just received q very beau
tiful and unique seed catalogue from
the Barteldes Seed company of Den
yer, Colo. We venture TO say II is
the most complete seed book ever
published in the west. The cover de-
sign is original. being a combination
of typical western planter. the earth.
and their new seed warehouse all
grouped together in the clouds. The
planters face wears a smile Of con-
tent so common in the West. and y
resting his left foot on one corner OF
the building pouring seed over the
earth. This we believe Is In harmony
with their general business policy 81
sending western seeds to the four cor
ners of the globe.
This is chance for the west 10
stand up for its own. this being q
western company. handled by western
men and doing everything possible
for the furtherance of the interests
of the west They pay out thousands
of dollars every year to the western
growers and We believe that the
hearty support OF the west should -
theirs.
They will be glad to send you On
of their new seed books

BIG INCREASE IN PRISON
POPULATION OF LATE

The register at the penitentiary at
noon on Monday revealed population
of 660 convicts behind the prison
walls. a number considerably in ex-
cess of the average for the last six
or seven months. The courts of the
state are nearly all grinding at the
present time and fresh fish" are COM
ing in every day, and, as result,
the high water mark or registration is
likely to be reached before spring
Since the beginning of the current
month forty-six new convicts have en-
tered upon the prison rolls, which is
an almost unprecedented number for
January. The penitentiary registra-
ton now is about SO higher than is
usual at this time of the year. The
largest number of prisoners ever in
the penitentiary here at one time was
three years ago, when it reached 745.

Franklin's paper the statesman., 1908-08-29

One who WAS drawn as juryman IN
Brooklyn asked to be excused from
duty on the ground that "the present
method Of juggling the law" seemed to
him to be waste Of the jurors time.
The Judge retorted, you are not flt to
be citizen, much less qualified to
serve as juror" Most people will
agree with the Judge, because a.
though the juror as citizen has .
right to his opinion on court methods
and the administration Of the law, be
was wrong in offering that opinion as
a reason for objecting to do citizens
duty. That man believes the exist
ing method Of taxation to be wrong
does not excuse him from paying his
own taxes. A congressman may hold
that declaration Of war is immoral
and vote against 1t, says the Youths
Companion, but he cannot on that ac-
count regard himself as exempt from
military service. A most noble and
stimulating discussion Of these prob
lens will be found in a recent book

ply OF Loyalty" wherein mans duty
to his own beliefs is held to be subor.

The Tramp and the Railroad.

We have the idea that our American
railroads kill many passengers. Yet
almost ten trespassers are killed to
every passenger killed. We believe
that the trainman takes his life in his
hands; yet more than twice as many
trespassers annually sustain fatal &C.
cidents, says Orlando F. Lewis in the
Atlantic. When we read that in five
years 1884 trespassers we're killed by
railroads, and 1926 trespassers in.
jured, we wonder that there should be
left living a single Jack the Hobo to
wash his shirt. In these five years
there were more trespassers killed
than there are inhabitants in Bangor,
Me-, or Burlington, Vt. Were this
army Of the dead lying but three feet
apart along the trackside in ghastly
regularity, they would stretch out for
nearly IA miles. At brisk walk, It
would take four hours to reach the
end Of the line. And then, were all
those reported injured In the last FIVE
years lying but three feet apart, we
should be obliged to walk for more
than four hours more, before we
reached the end of this second line.
The Baltimore & Ohio representative
said that many railroads maintain pn.
vate tramp grayeyards," in which are
buried many Of the unknown dead,
without inquest and with expedition.
Question: How many city graveyards
could be annually filled with the unre.
corded, unreported vagrant dead?
