THE poor old Denver Republi
can got SO hard up that it was
forced TO cut down its subscrip
ton list by cutting off the Routt
county papers. This was done
because the papers over here
would not consent to run 4 ten
dollar-a month ad free in order TO
get to exchange with that sheet.
As the news printed in the Re
publican is taken from the Times
and Post we can't figure out how
Routt county is any loser-Stcam-
boat Sentinel.
The Bulletin bushes TO admit
it carried the Republican ad a
few times and was amputated
above the shoulders. The only
regret we have for putting the ad
IN at all is that we know the poor
old corporation owned sheet was
a fake of the first water and
wholly unreliable in every respect
when we inserted the ad. The
cutting off of the Bulletin just
about closed up the subscription
list for this place.-Breckenridge
Bulletin
THE NEWSPAPER is also off the
Republican list but of our own
choice. We suggested the mat
ter to the exchange manager. as
we have never yet found anything
of value to us in that paper. The
fact is that il is a chore to read
papers and busy editor net tds
those that say something and
mean it. To wade through col
umns of stuff that was bought
and paid for before being writer
is the very acme Of unrewardeo
toll. Just why does not the Re
publican go into the hands of a
real newspaper man who will re-
fleet the sentiment of the party in
the state1 There are too many
corporation sheets in Denver now
but there is room TOR reliable
republican paper.

THE American husband has the
deep sympathy of Motosada
Zumoto, Japanese editor. This
son Of the Orient has made two
trips to America and has observed
that wives rule the roost. Hus-
bands are care worn and have a
hunted look, while the wives.
though not really happy, are evil
IDENTIFY bosses of the situation.
All this is contrary to Oriental
ideas. Mr.. Zumoto has evidently
associated with the effete eastern
American. He ought to get out
where western breezes blow. He
mentions and deplores the fact
that the women are demanding
suffrage. They have it out here,
and the earth still revolves.

Our patriotic Colorado Senator
Simon sends all the gold from his
smelters to the Philadelphia mint,
hence while all the other coinage

the mint at Denver is closed for
the want of metal to work on
Colorado produces enough gold
to keep the mint running all the
time. but her product is sent away
by the smelter trust senator.

WHATS the use of specializing
about the significance of the ca
nails on Mars since an astronomer
who seems to have some common
sense lett, has given the snap
away? Sage deductions have
been made about their indi-
cation of intelligent inhabi-
tants, and some have worried
the public with schemes to COM
municate with them. The astron-
omer in question tells us that the
largest attainable photograph of
Mars is no larger than pin head
and that the alleged canals may
be due to imperfections in the
lens or the eye, that any one of a
dozen things may account for
their dim appearance in the
picture without presupposing their
actual existence in fact on Mars,
Thus is our pet ambition cast to
the ground. We had set our
heart on talking to Mars. Why
is Science" anyhow"

TEDDY has killed "wart rat
and sent the hide to the Smith
sonian Institute. This particular
rat had a wart on its lower lip
which it seems is not the custo-
mary place for the wart, aud for
this reason the hide is more highly
priced by the scientists" than all
the lion, rhinoceros and hippo
potamus pelts he has accumu-
lated. 1t doesn't seem to require
much to satisfy the high -brows
when just one little wart out of
place on a rat puts them into
ecstacies.

THERE doesn't seem to be any
dispute about Uncle Sam being
the owner of the north pole, in
case DR.. Cook verifies his alleged
discovery. Just what our uncle
proposes to do with it hasn't
"transpired." 1t ought to be
worth as much as that lock to the
tomb of Jesus which James Creel-
man has secured, and it would
seem that it should command as
high price when split up. as
splinters from the true cross.
Shouldn't wonder if these relics
would be good for rheumatism OF

Now that an investigation is

SINCE the north pole was bound
to be discovered by somebody
sometime, and when that hap
pened the world would necessa-
rily have to take his word for it,
there DOESN'T seem to be any rea-
son to dispute DR.. Cook when he
SAYS that he was at the north pole.
On any expedition having the
discovery of the north pole as its
object, the astronomical observa-
tions by which the locality could
be ascertained would of necessity
be made by one member of the
party and his would be the only
evidence aside from scientific
cxamination of his daily records
which must verify what he
claimed. This would be true if
the party were large or small
The fact that DIR. Cook reduced
his company to two beside him.
self does not affect the CREDIBLE
ity of his account. DR.. Cook says
that he will produce daily records
made on the trip which will sat
|isfy any scientist that he reached
1 the north pole. Since he is an
|American, it is practically GER
|tain that he knew where he was
at"
