This is an exceptionally liberal pro-
vision and requires the services Of
several special teachers who give
their entire time to this work. Such
provision could not be duplicated in
ITS entirety by a small school but
every essential element could be as
luAed in such a school as the local
high school by the employment of
one additional teacher. Such teach
er would need to have special train
ing for this work and would have to
give practically his entire time to
teaching the commercial branches.
With this teacher and proper euip-
ment first class business course
might be given in the Union High
school. So many Of the preparatory
commercial branches are based on
gAlde work that the addition of
few professional subjects would make
1t possible to offer a Normal course
for teachers. In the opinion of the
writer the establishment of both
courses is desirable and practicable
if the Union High school district can
afford the additional expense.

W|LKEN IS ALIVE

| Nothing has been seen or heard
of Fred Wilken, the mining man who
mysteriously disappeared Wednesday
of last week. Thursday morning, a
Mr.. Pettifoot of Boulder, long time
friend of the missing man arrived in
the city to assist in the search. At
his request the Humboldt mine on
Winnebago hill was cleaned out.
Volunteers undertook the work and
accomplished their object at Sunday
nodn. There was no sign of man
in the shaft. The reason the search
of the Humboldt was made was be-
cause the ground around the shaft
had caved in and it was thought vii.
ken might have gone to the shaft to
look down and was carried away with
the caving dirt. 1t had been said
that he had been thinking of taking
lease on the Humboldt and the sup
position was that he was examining
the hole.
While the men were at work clean
ing out the Humboldt Marshal Geo.
A|NAOSA anu oIuclS Ou uOSeUdCk
secured the hills for several miles.
They didn't see a trace of Wilken.
Parties living at Rollinsville, Perigo
and other towns in the northern Sec
tion of the county were phoned and
given a description of Wilken, but
they claimed they had seen nothing
of him. Idaho Springs was also COM
muncated with but no one answering
the description of the missing man
had been seen there. A report gain
ed circulation that strange man
s~as seen to pass through Russell
Gulch Wednesday morning and Satur-
day members of the searching party
went to Russell to investigate, 1t
developed that the stranger was a
much larger man than Wilken. A
report was also received that a man
had been found at Golden and the
marshal thinking it might be Wilken
phoned down and learned that there
was no truth to the report.
Another peculiar circumstance
which has come to light since Wilken
first disappeared is that Wilken be-
fore leaving Denver the Monday pre-
vious to his disappearance, had cash
ed a check for $1,000 belonging to
y Mike Manaloni, a miner employed at
the Minnesota mine, property being
worked by Wilken and S. w. Brere-
ton, of Denver. The check was sent
up from Denver by Brereton. When
: Wilken left for Denver it was suppos-
ed that he went down to get this
money. The citizens have concluded
that it is useless to prosecute the
search further
1t has been learned since the above
was put in slugs that Fred Wilken
Is living and enjoying his usual
health. A telegram was received in
this city Monday to that effect from

the thing to do is to let him re.

AS far as Colorado is concerned
the voters at our last general election
showed their utter disgust for Simon
Guggenheim and the Republican par
ty. and it would be useless for Simon
to bob up again for reelection, says
with John Johnson, discoveror of the
famous Hidden Treasure mine in Gil
IIin county, and who by the way is
one of the most successful mining
men in Ehe state when it comes to
uhe treatment of all kinds of ores, a
Press representative learned the
smelter trust had done more
to injure the prosperity of Colorado
than any other agency. Mr.. Johnson
informed us that there was a time
when miners got fair returns for
their ore, but that now they must
take jus. what they can get for it.
Consequently, hundreds of mines are
closed on account of highway rob-
berry. Time was when mine owners
duu iedSeTS SSuI tueli oie W Ndi iouS
mills and had it crushed and then
sold it to the one bidding the highest.
but that day has passed into the
sweet remotely. now that this trust
is in power. A prominent mining
man who resides in this city and who
has interests in another county, sent
ore valued at $50 to the Guggenheim
company, but was offered only $50.
The mining interests of Idaho, Mon
tana and Utah have all suffered more
or less through the graft of this
strosity of the first wa.ers when 1t
comes to fair dealing cannot be ques
eioned. II any class OF men deserve
fair treatment, it is the hardy miners
of this republic: for mining about the
mother of all other agencies and the
very life force to which they must al
come. Think of the enormous wealth
which the miners have won in years
past from our rocky, barren noun
Gains and sandy wastes. The rich
mines of Colorado proved to be the
greatest boon in giving our fair met
ropolis it's first start in establishing
our magnificent buildings. The lead
ing philanthrophists in our state hav,
been the men who made fortunes
honestly while engaged in mining
and these mountain peaks will whis
per to the craigs," telling unborn gen
erations what good these whole soul
ed, generous hearted men accomplish
ed for mankind.

small conception of the ways and GUS

cially the southwest. Out there the
women and girls go out and enter land
ana hold down homesteads, but the
latest feat is the 800 mile ride by two
boys, aged five and seven. The boys
were alone, and the ride was made on
ponies, from Santa Fe, New Mexico,
to Guthrie, Oklahoma. The trip COW
cred some of the widest country in the

Probate Judge Sterling H. McCarty
has been mentioned as probable
candidate on the Democratic ticket for
congressman from this district. At
present it is, perhaps, little early
to settle upon any particular candi-
date, and the Democratic party has
an abundant supply of good material
to draw from. AS the home of Con-
gresham Crow is at Caruthersville,
and he will doubtless be the next can
didate on the Republican ticket, it
seems to us that it might be well to
select the Democratic candidate from
that place, and we are sure that if
nominated, Judge McCarty will make
"a hard fight, and if elected he will be
absolutely reliable.

accidents were narrowly averted from
the fact that over-zealous pilots at
tempted on verious occasions to run
too near the presidents steamer. The

ANOTHER YEAR.

The first year of the Hayti Herald
is now right at it's close, and we are
willing to leave it with the people
whether we have made good.
For our own part, we are more than
satisfied with our success, and the
business has gone far beyond our
most sanguine expectations.
The people of Hayti and Caruthers-
vile have given us liberal support
and our readers in the county are
numerous.
After October 90 we will enter up
on our second year, and we naturally
expect all our readers to stay with us
and by their continued support help
and enable us to get out a better pa
per.
1t is time now to begin to think
about the renewal of your subscrip-
ton for another year, which we hope
you will do promptly, as we will need
your support and encouragement.
Do not forget this. and remember,
that if you do not call and settle, our
solicitor will surely visit you. This
is simply "a matter of business, as we
must know who wants the paper, and
there is no other way to learn. SO be
ready FOR US and stay with US for
another year--we need you.

AMERICAN FOOTBALL
| has COME TO STAY

New York, Dec. 27.-Fifty colleges
out of approximately eighty eight in
the intercollegiate Athletic Associa-
ton have voted for the retention Of
the American football game with the
elimination of mass plays and other
dangerous plays.
This was made known tonight, by
the executive committee of the asso-
citation on the eve of the meeting to
be held tomorrow.
Five institutions voted that the
present game is satisfactory except
in minor details; seventeen favored
the English game Of Rugby; seven
took a midway position between the
American game and Rugby and nine
voted that either the American game
should be radically changed orRug-
by substituted.
The executive committee, it was an
nounced, favored the changes propos-
ed by the athletic committee of West
Point and would so report to the con-
vention tomorrow. The West Point
committee has prepared a resol ution
declaring that football has developed
dangers which are recognized to be
intolerable and that it has become
necessary to eradicate undue rough
ness. i!SiglN
