would be a disgrace to the state to
allow the grounds to be in any way
injured All of our tickets will ex-
pire on Saturday, and let us all make
our contributions on next Sunday for
the purpose of keeping up thees
grounds. If it Is generally known
that Sunday receipts will be devoted
to taking care of the plants. shrubs,
ETC., there will be large attendance,
especially if some of the buildings are
kept open and Ellery's band plays.
THE New Yory Society made the
suggestion some time ago that one
days receipts be donated for preserv-
ing the grounds, and l, as a stock
and ticket holder, second the sugges-
ton, and hope that every one In this
city and state will urge upon the
Alaska-Yukon-Pacific management
that one days gate receipts be de-
voted to taking care of the grounds.
We must keep these beautiful ground
as an induring and lasting monument
of the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific exposi-
ton. Let everybody help"

Politicians generally are deeply In
terested In the present contest over
the DISTINGUISHING amendment in
Maryland. The interest is due not
only to the Importance Of the con-
test to Maryland but by reason of the
bearing it has on the ,disfranchise-
ment question in other states.
The platform adopted BY Massachu-
sets republicans expresses the belief
that the tariff law passed by the
Sixty-first congress ''is of more value
to the laboring interests Of the United
States than any measure that has
ever been enacted and that 1t will
bring more prosperity and more COM
fort to more people than were ever
before affected by any one act of in
dustrial legislation"
Statewide prohibition will be sub
mitted to the voters of Oregon at the
general election in 1910, when there
will be a direct popular vote upon a
constitutional amendment forbidding
the sale, gift or storage of intoxicat-
ing liquors in any form.

assume the care of the grounds If the
city council viii make an appropria-
ton of $4,000. The city council
Monday evening referred the matter
to the committee ON parks and boule-
wards.
The exposition grounds have been
pronounced the most beautiful ever
laid out and sentiment to preserve
the beauties of the 1909 exhibition is
growing.
:. Terrace to Replace Cascades.
Since many of the buildings are to
remain the University park would
easily become one of the most popu-
lar in the city. After the temporary
buildings are removed the vacant
ground will be sodded. There is to
be beautiful terrace to mark the
location of the Cascades. The for
NAL gardens will remain.
The picnic grounds on the shores
of Lake Washington, within the expo
sition enclosure, offer delightful
place to spend an afternoon and with
the city increasing SO rapidly in pop
ulation it is asserted that the univer-
sity campus would soon become big
central park for the benefit of the
general public.
Let Stockholders Help.
Christopher w. Horn, a stockhold-
er in the exposition, in proposing that
the fair grounds should be preserved
suggests a plan by which, he says
this result may be secured.
Let the stockholders of the expo
sition donate the proceeds Of next
Sunday to the regents of the stare
university to keep up the grounds uu.

preparation" said Mr. Horn yester
day. The beautiful landscape Is

Mil Levy Valuation

II will be observed that La Junta
is very fortunate as regards the rate
Of taxation, our rate being much
lower than any Of them. except in
the mountain towns where everything
Is wide open.
The city Of Telluride has always
been cited as a shining example Of
the beauties OF municipal ownership.
That town owns the water works
and electric light plant. and until
this year has never had a tax levy.
w. A. Nicodemus. city clerk. In re-
ply to our request writes as follows:
"The expenses Of the city Of Tel.
luride have about been paid by liz.
uor licenses. water rents. fines, etc,
but for 1910. we have asked the coun.
ty commissioners to make a levy OF
five mills for the city for the tax
OF 1909 which Is collected In 1910"
This may be another instance.
where the dream OF municipal owner
ship turned out to be night mare.
1t looks that way.

As TO THE MAINE.

Representative Douglas, Of Ohio. complains
that a recent general press dispatch misreported
his speech I'm Congress about the wreck Of the
Maine in Havana HarbOr. and thus did him
much injustice hich was aggravated in news
paper comments upon his supposed ntteraDces.
He denies that he said anything about for
getting the Maine" or anything which cannot
be approved by every patriotic man. matter
what may be his attitude toward the disposition
of the wreck. The official report in the Con
gressional Record confirms Mr.. Douglass de
NAL Of some Of the sentiments and expressions
which were imputed to HIM. and it is only JUS
tice 10 him that the correction should be made
We cannot however. agree with Mr. Doug
lass attitude toward the Maine as disclosed
by the report of his remarks In the Congress
Sional Record, nor do think that it will or
should he approved 10y every patriotic man"
For Mr.. Douglas is opposed to the raising Of the
wreck Of the Maine, especially by this country.
"If this, proposition be founded upon CONNER
cial reasons" he said, then let the Repuhlic
~of Cuba remove the wreck If il be q
matter Of justice, let the Kingdom Of Spain
remove the wreck / see no good rea-
son founded either in sentiment or ANYTHING
"else, why should undertake the expense
''Of raising the wreck from the harbor of Ha-
''vana."
From those opinions we emphaticaIlv dissent
should remove the wreck: for the Maine was
and IS property and was sent to that har-
bOr by us. and we have no business TO leave
our derelict property there TO be an incum-
brance and menace TO the harbor of Havana
or 10 expect Cuba at her own expense TO dis
pose OF our property. For reasons of Justice
we. and not Spain. should raise the wreck; for
this country has freely charged the destruction
OF that ship against Spain or at least. against
Spaniards, and decency and Justice demand that
this country itself should either show the pre-
sumptive grounds for that charge or confess IFS
grOnndleSsness. For reasons Of sentiment We
should raise that wreck and rescue its contents.
for. while 10 bring home what Mr. Douglas de
scribes as the "ghastly remnants Of the moor
fellows who went down with the Maine" might

Of their families and friends" it would he more
cruel. more repugnant to every tender and
patriotic sentiment TO leave them there TO Sa
