RAISING REVENUE

The Chicago Record 1eTdlu gives an incident by which the government of that city raises the revenue from the liquor traffic which the voters, by their ballots, claim that they must have in order to keep up the streets, schools, prisons, aims houses, etc. A young man of 70 years stood on the corner and begged aims of the passers by in order to obtain money enough to rent a room in which to commit suicide. He disrobed himself and lay down with two gas jets opened. He was found dead the next morning with note by his side, written to his parents and one to the police. He expressed great solicitude for his parents, even asked the police not to notify them until after they had eaten dinner, saying, Il do not want to spoil their dinner. - He expressed himself as a victim of dissipation, and the prey of saloon keepers. Although they knew l was minor they sold me liquor. " Reader can you enter into the young mans agony of soul? Can you realize the sad ness caused by the passing away of a young life out of your home? A life which was made to live its three score years and ten, of use- fitness, happiness and helpful ness. Can you in any measure conceive of the burning thirst that almost consumed him, yea, that did consume him? If not, just sit down and draw the pie ture of your own son falling a victim to this slave holder with his thousands of cat of-nine-tails. What would you do? Wouldn't you wake up to the duty of for ever removing the temptation out of his way? Remember youth is so thoughtless. The paths are so slippery for their untried feet. Isn't it the duty of the United States to do like Gladstone said, Make it just as hard as possible for people to do wrong, and as easy as possible for them to do right" If we could just persuade people that the best and only way by which to govern their actions toward a thing is to bring it home to them selves. Do this and I'll wager a good deal that such thing as a whisky den will not live long in their community or state.
 Let us take care of those weak ones who by environment are led into paths that are un- safe. and that makes of what should be g brilliant and sue cessful career, a sad and unhap- pv wreck, with oalY the stirg cf remorse all regrot ever burning in it's bosom.

Important Oil Strikes.

Florence. Colo. - Two new strikes
have been made by the United Oil Com
pany which have much bearing on the
life OF the oil district here, assuring
that it is good for twenty to twenty
five years, at least. The biggest
strike is in well No. $50.
which has been sunk to depth of
$500 feet and the oil is standing at the
1.OO0-foot level. Field Supt. Johnston
says the well will prove to be n 100 bar
rels daily capacity at the lowest esti-
mate. The strike Is in the Williams
burg district. and It is believed that a
lake Of oil has been tapped. This dis
trict has been worked to the 1.700.foot
level, but at this level only streaks OF
oil were found. Machinery is soon to
be installed and the well will be
thoroughly tested. Many oil men be-
lieve the well will pump 200 barrels
daily.
The other strike was made In well
No. 37S, near the old Rocky Mountain
smelter plan. This well is not so deep,
but it is believed it will yield 100 bar
rels day.
