GOVERNOR CALLS
COMMISSIONERS
To Meet Him In Baltimore City,
On Wednesday, April 21st. To
Discuss Good Roads.

Governor Crothers has sent out in
vitations to the meeting of County Com
missoners, which he has scheduled for
April Il. The invitations were sent par
ticularly to the president of each board.
to the counsel and to the clerk. 1t is
stated in the invitations that such other
members as care to come will be welcome,
but the presence of these officials is es-
pecially desired.
Interest in the coming conference has
been aroused all over the State and the
developments there will be watched
closely by the people in every county.
No such gathering has ever been called
together before, and exactly what is to
be Sprung" upon the County Commits
sioners when they arrive is not known.
The Governor. in explaining his pur-
pose in assembling the County Commis-
sioners, indicates that he has in mind
some practial reforms in which he hopes
to get the cooperation So 'cc;;.;; -: ::
peorle. .4s@
One of these is the question of
ing roads. In the opinion of the Go
or as well as others who have haG
portunities for looking into the mat
the present methods in force in most
the counties leaves much to be desired
In one or two counties up-to-date,
modern, progressive methods are used
and the people get full value for the
money they spend. In a number Of
them this is not the case. 1t is UNDER
stood the Governor believes that the
system of mending roads should be uni
form in all the counties and he has a
number of suggestions along this line.
by which money can be saved and better
Results obtained, which he will lay be-
fore the Commissioners as well as to
ask them for suggestions and informa-
tion.
The Governor will submit to the
County Commissioners whether better
government. less expensive and more
efficient, can not be obtained by having
each county governed in one way, and
that the most modern way. than by
having a different system in each coun-
ty. He expects to get from the meet
ing much information that will be of
value to him, and from the responses
received since the announcement was
first made that he intended to call this
conference, it is probably his ideas will
meet with an energetic response.
The interest which the county people
have taken in the State road question
has been of the most intense kind. The
Governor is anxious to impress upon
the minds of the County Commissioners,
who are governing bodies in the differ
ent counties, that unless the work of the
State in building good roads is supple
mented by che counties themselves 1t
will fall short of what is really desired.
Each county. he believes. should find in
the work the State is doing and the
money it is spending in building good
roads, stimulant to action for itself,
not only in building roads to serve as
compliments to the State roads, but in
repairing those they have.

accuracy on mans infallibility in strik-
ing the right keys.
And so it is throughout the realm of
mechanics. The mind of man directs
the steady hand that shall control the
lever. or handle the trottle of the loco
motive.
We respectfully suggest to Mr.. Ridg-
way, however, that the equipment of all
the engines on the road with electric
headlights would go long way toward
the prevention of wrecks. Had engine
513 been equipped with an electric
headlight, last Friday night, the rays
would have been thrown across the river
on the opposite mountain in such way
as almost surely to attract the atten-
ton of Gus Olson or his fireman or both
notwithstanding the curve in the track.
And then there is another remedy, or
partial remedy, which, however, has 70
do with lessening the havoc in case a
collision occurs, and that is, make up
trains of cars of more uniform weight,
and strength, so that in case of a COLI.
SION all ears will be better able to resist
the force of the impact. In last Fri
days train the relative condition of
that illfated chair car was in similar
contrast to a wicker phaeton placed be-
tween loaded ore wagons. Of course,
the result of the impact was what
might have been expected.
But of course, the principal aim is
to prevent collisions, and if that seems
impossible, we must next give some at
tention to mitigating the terrible re-
tsults. There is no doubt that had the
cars in last Fridays train been of the
same weight and strength, the result
would have been less destructive.
But why speculate? Last Friday 5
wreck has proved a costly blunder fo'
the Rio Grande and will serve to call
the atteption of the legislature now in
session to the necessity of some action
being taken looking toward the greater
safety of passengers on public carriers
passengers on. public carriers.
The question is one of vital import
ance, and wise men, both in and out If
railroad circles, will no doubt give the
matter much thought, and if it is pos
sible to enact remedial legislation this
will probably be done. But it must not
be forgotten that it is not an easy mat
ter to legislate either care or ability into
men when these qualities do not al
ready exist

A WORK OF HUMANITY

Stony indeed must be the heart that
is not touched by the dreadful carnage
of the past week. But the Post can
bear witness to the fact that the people
of Glenwood are not unfeeling. They
are not unsympathetic. They are ln-
deed touched with the feeling of others
;nfirmities. The Post is proud of onr
citizens, whose hearts were touched by
the sadness and grief that has covered
us like "a pail and who responded IN
every way possible, giving cheer and
comfort to the injured and tenderly
bearing the dead from the awful scene
of destruction
Strong men stood with moistened eye
in the presence of the mangled dead,
and especially when the bodies of the
little children were brought out men
who do not shrink in the face of danger
turned away and handkerchiefs were
brought to cheeks that are unused II
tears.
Kindhearted and sympathetic women,
realizing the awful need of the hour,
forgot their household duties and ten
dered their services, thankful that they
were able to be of some assistance to
the stricken sufferers. But they were
amply rewarded when they witnessed
the smiles of the little child sufferers
rs they greeted their relatives who
came to claim the innocent little orph-
ans, and provide homes for them. Vt
1t was worth the effort and sacrifice
ten thousand times over.
Let us all hope that such a dreadful
calamity may never again be thrust
upon us, but should it come may we
have ready hands and willing and sym
pathetic hearts to assauge grief and
minister to those in pain, being mindful
of the words of the Master, "Inasmuch
as We have done it unto the least of
these We did it unto Me-

light of day. How many have we thus
honored; those great men who bore the
burdens of the nation, fought its Bat
ties, manipulated the intricate threads
of diplomacy and affairs of state. And
still the list grows-may it never de-
crease.
There is little one can say in lauding
Abraham Lincoln, that has not already
been said. He has beggared the En-
glish language, of terms of praise. The
Man of Sorrows, guiding the helm of
the ship of state through the most
stormy waters of its voyage, plotting it
wisely across the shoals of post-bellum
days; dying at last by the assassin g
hand, he needs no further eulogy, at
this late day. America has long since
accorded him the right to lean across
the chasm of time and shake hands
with Washington. Could "Old Abe -
ask more?

THE PRESIDENT AND THE EDITOR

An interesting development, or, rath-
or, sequel, to the recent editorial attacks
upon the President by the New York
World and the Indianapolis News, is the
libel suit instituted by United States
Attorney Stimson, against these papers.
Several of the staff of the respective
sheets have been subpoenaed and called
upon to testify in court, to show cause
why they should not be imprisoned AMI
fined, or both, for malicious libel and
slander, defamation of character, etc.
I'll is difficult to foresee the outcome
of this case. The points at issue are
rather complex. They hinge upon two
vital questions of the present day. If,
on the one hand, the court dismisses the
case, point is scored for the yellow
journalism, to put it roughly; at least
the right TO roast, assail, or otherwise
attack, even if by nnuendo, those which
nation has signally honored, is up
held. This means a decided Lowering of
the dignity of our dignitaries. 1t de
bases the high federal offices, to lay
them at the mercy of press that may,
or may not, be unscrupulous. 1t is al
lowing the eagle IS wings to go untrim-
med to point, one might call the
frowsy. We do not believe that little
trimming, small amount of grooming,
would hamper to any noticeable extent,
the flight of the noble bird.
But, on the other hand, to decide that
the President is quite within his rights
in demanding that national enterprises
be free from Objectionable comments on
the part of our metropolitan papers,
would be to fire the first gun in tt.e
campaign for the muzzling of the press.
Certainly, if the papers arraigned are
found guilty of the charges named, an
era of conservatism will be inaupurated
in editorial rooms that. will, to say the
least, decrease more than one paper $
circulation. The public wants it's read.
ing matter hot off the bat. It wants
names, dates, facts, and cares not at
all whether such facts are bought, stol
en-, or given freely. And if little i'm
agination is used at times on big stor
les. such as the panama Scandal the
newsies will not complain of dearth Of
sales. That the press should have more
respect for our officials, is undoubtedly
true. That they have very little, III
commensurately correct. That they
have none at all, is a statement that
would hardly qualify one for active
membership in the exclusive Ananias
club. Such . state Of affairs Il, Of

DIVIDE HOLY CROSS RESERVE

ASPEN, Jan. 22.-An event of inter
est to all who have business with the
Holy Cross national forest officers in
this district will occur when super
visor s headquarters will be established
in this city on February l. The area
of the Holy Cross reserve comprising
1851 200 acres, has been found to be
too much territory for one office at
Glenwood to care for properly and rap
idly, and for that reason the reserve
will be divided into two sections or
districts, with a supervisors s headquar-
ters both here and at Glenwood.
The local office will be in charge of
John McLaren, now deputy supervisor
of the Holy Cross reserve. He will be
promoted, and after February will be
known as Supervisor McLaren. Mr.. Nc
Laren is former Aspen resident and
has been in the employ of Uncle Sam
for some time. Before leaving Aspen
three years ago to enter the forestry
service he held position in the poss-
office.
1t is understood that the new office
will be located in the Aspen Dry Goods
block. The force will comprise Super
visor McLaren, Forest Assistant J. II.
Higgins, Ranger Norman C. Ashlock and
Forest Guard Mate Bradley. 1t is ex-
pected that clerk will be added to
the clerical force within several months.
The purpose of the new headquarters
will be to afford better convenience to
the users of the reserve in this district.
Recently the office of the head super
visor was moved from Washington to
Denver, for the same reason of conven-
ienee
The name of the new district has not
yet been definitely determined, but in
all probability it will be known as est
pris reserve
Yesterday Ranger Ashlock received
two-ton consignment of barbed wire
which will be used in the construction
of fence on Brush creek. Several
other fences will be constructed next
spring in the Little Woody and Dry
Woody sections.
The creation of the new headquarters
will mean quite an item in saving ot
time and expense to the many users Of
the reserve within radius of twenty
miles, who have had heretofore to go 20
Glenwood to conduct business with the
supervisor.
