You Are Here 10 Loue.

Thine has scattered the snowy flakes

rapt radiance of holy love which can
never fade. Oh, yes, she is dear old

President Taft contemplates

Will it take that long for him to
recover from the present one?
Col. Bryan says he hopes
nothing will arise to make it
necessary for him to enter the
next presidential contest. But
something will.
1t is a plain proposition, after
the prevailing prices for lectures
by men who have been to the
North Pole, that the South Pole
cannot long remain undiscovered.
The United States Bureau of
Fisheries has distributed over
3, 600, 900 fish and fish eggs dur
ing the past year. 1t is easy to
see where the big fish stories are
propagated.
Our minister to China has

much. The Chinese is difficult
tongue, but there is none, it
seems, in which a man can not
talk too much if he likes too
well to hear his own voice.

INSPECTION GRAFT.

The State of Colorado has
sprung it's latest graft on its
people in the shape of branch
added to the Labor Statistics
Bureau by the lastlegislature, as
applied to inspecting manufac-
lures.
In this bill any shop which
happens to have a two-bit ma
chine and a ten-cent shift belt is
a factory.
In itself this wouldn't be so
bad, but the bunco gang make,
or try to make, the owners of
all such shops pay a fee which
they have fixed at $40 for yearly
inspection.
A gentleman came into the
INDEPENDENT Office Monday,
threw down a card bearing the
legend: Deputy State Inspect
or" and briskly stated that he
wished to inspect the plant. He
was courteously shown through.
He walked to the rear of the
office and back, sat down at a
desk and filled out a blank
schedule, then remarked: There
is an inspection fee of ten dollars
per year attached to this.'
We are willing that the State,
under stress of a fake law en-
acted by a fake legislature,
should inspect our workshop,
but we object to paying the
salary of an inspector, and this
information was impaired to the
deputy as gently but firmly as
feelings would admit. He was
informed that the Flaw" would
be inspected first, and the charge
for so doing made against the
State. if possible, to offset his
services to the State.
An inspection law of factories
may be good thing, as applying
to factories or large establish
ments where much machinery
and many people are employed,
but this could be made part of
the duty of the Boiler Inspectors
department.
The new department bears all
the ear-marks Of a political place
feature created to give party
henchmen a job. 1t was more
profitable, perhaps, to own party
workers who could be paid out of
fees collected from small shop
owners and pile up snug sum
besides, than to pass a primary
law or any other which the peo-
pie had asked.
1t required about five minutes
to inspect this office. Ten Dol
lars, Pleased"
Under this bill a blacksmith
running lathe, a repair shop
with a belt and pulley, a farmer
with a gasoline engine for spray
ing, are liable to suspicion of be-

ing a factory in disguise, and it
is possible that a woman with an
electric flat-iron might be in
spected and asked to contribute
ten.
. Colorado is noted for fake laws;
silly, burdensome, hurtful laws
which have done more to keep
investments out of the State
than all her boosters could offset,
but she has had none more plaus-
IDLY a graft than this factory in
spection graft.
Every citizen and property
owner of a state is taxed to pay
the expenses of the state. Aside
there are revenues from many
channels which add hundreds of
thousands of dollars to the state
funds. On top of this is it
necessary to license exhorbi-
family license-every little in
dustry in the state by which
citizens earn bread and butter
! for their families? We do not
believe it! Eliminate the graft
from the business management,
gentlemen, and you will be doing
your duty as officers, and will
then earn and have the respect
of the people of the state, what
ever political name your admin
istration bears.
