Epilepsy, Fits, St. Vitus'

cured in so many instances with
DR.. Miles Nervine that # is
reasonable to conclude that it IS
almost sure to cure you. With
nervous diseases of a severe
type, persistent use has almost
invariably resulted in a complete
cure or lasting benefits, worth
many times the cost Of the rem
edy. The best evidence YOU can
get Of its merits is to write to
those who have used it. Get a

It all according to directions, and

THE RELIC IN ITS SHRINE

Danger of injury is not the strongest
objection to sending the Liberty Bell
across the continent. That is to be
considered, but there are reasons why
the bell should stay at home without
imagining possible perils. 1t should
stay at home because it belongs here.
1t derives its significace from its asso-
ciation with the old state house, where
it should remain enshrined.
People come from all parts of the
world TO visit Independence hall. They
have heard of the old bell and look for
it there. The shrine of liberty seems
to have lost one of it's jewels when the
old bell is not there. To take it away
is TO desecrate this national sanctuary.
There is scarcely more reason for lend
ing out the bell for exhibitions else
where than there would be for a sim
liar misuse of the table on which the
Declaartion was signed, or any similar
object of patriotic interest. Their IN
terest comes from and belongs to the
place.
Some people think that our readiness
to lend the bell upon all occasions has
made friends for Philadelphia. On the
contrary, it has presented the city in
an unfavorable light as holding its rel
les cheaply. If the bell is to be used
10 "advertise Philadelphia, let it be
through the advertisement of the fast
that we keep it here, in its own home,
where it can be at all times seen by
all who come to see the place where it
proclaimed liberty" - Philadelphia

WEALTH AND CAMPAIGN FUNDS

Colorado launches the latest political
panacea in the form of q law drawing
on the state treasury for campaign ex
penses, says an editorial in the Pitts
burg Dispatch. Mr.. Roosevelt and Sen
ator Guggenheim are epigrammatically
credited with having brought this
about, the former by proposal to that
about, the former by proposal to that
effect, in one of his messages.
Yet the features of the measure as
summarized in press reports permit a
speculation whether, as in the case of
other political nostrums, the actual re-
suits may not be Disappointing to those
who build on it their hopes Of pure
elections. The act provides n sum for
campaign expenses averaging about 25
cents per voter. This is to be appor
TONED among party organizations in
the ratio of their vote, no other cam
paign contributors are to be permitted
except that candidates themselves may
contribute additionally to prosecute
their own campaigns.
These provisions, considered rs TO
their effect, present these peculiar a.
poets: The state contribution newt
ably gives the largest campaign fund
to the strongest party, and the smallest
to the weakest party. A very small
party advocating new reform would
get practically nothing, and if it should
wish to expend a good deal in printing
documents and otherwise bringing its
ideas to public notice, it has no other
course than to nominate rich candi.
dAtes. A party which should advo-
cate Z cause that the rich do not like
could get no campaign fund at all
Moreover, as between the other par
ties, the provision seems to intensity
the tendency toward nominating the
wealthy candidates The able but poor
candidate could get no campaign fund
except the states 25 cents per voter.
and must depend on the favor of the
party committee for that. The ricn
eandidate opposing him could fling
his barrel into the scales. Under this
law practical politics will be more dis
posed than ever to put the nominations
IT the service Of wealth.
We do not claim that this will fatal

AMERICAN TRADE FEATURES

Alaska cost the United States ST.
100000 when it was purchased from
Russia. There was a loud outcry at
the time against the expenditure for
rock and ice," of a useless land.
Everybody now knows how rich re-
turn has come from the investment.
For further illustration, the statistics
for eight months of the fiscal year to
end June next, show a net value of the
native gold shipped from that terri
tory amounting to $16,750,000 this be-
ing more than double the original pur
chase price.
In the same eight months merchan-
c'se sent from the United States had a
value of $9,43O,OOo. The cargoes in the
other direction were valued at $12.-
1885, 900. The "noncontiguous territor-
ies'' is the rather clumsy expression
by which Alaska, Hawaii, Porto Rico,
Guam, the Philippines, and few
smaller holdings in the Pacific are des-
ignated. Many citizens have not the
slightest appreciation of what they
mean. commercially considered. The
department of commerce and labor
gives figures to show that the trade be
tween them and continental United
States for the current year will aggre'
gate $l50,000000. Ten years ago the
total was $7O,OO0,00O.
In eight months merchandise valued
at $ll 100000 has been sent to the
Hawaiian islands and $22 2,700,00O has
been returned. To Porto Rico $l6,-
100000 worth of merchandise has
gone and from it $ll 100000 has come
For the Philippines the outgoing and
incoming shipments have represented
about $7,000,000 each, the balance be
ing slightly in favor of the Islands. In
general way the trend is toward a
steady increase in outgoing trade. To
double trade relationships within ten
years is perhaps not as encouraging as
some might have hoped. But the fig
ures for the last eight months give ar
idea of the great possibilities cou'
nected with the proper development of
commerce along these lines.

NOTICE OF p,scoyryNUAycE-
Saturday, May Is, 1909.
WHO ARE THE KICKERS?

1t has been said that certain of the
Glenwood business men are not in sym
pathy with the movement to have at
least one of the marble mills, and that
these men say they have no faith in
the marble industry.
While the charges are no doubt true,
it certainly does not sound well for
a business man in any community to
knock the bringing of an industry, ne
matter how small, to its doors. Glen
wood Is certainly in need of industries
of whatever kind she can secure The
marble mill is but one of the many
that may sooner or later be brought
here where workmen can put in full
time every day in the year and where
conditions are such as to insure health
to the workers.
It is true, the Strouse mill may not
employ more than dozen men at the
start, but each year will see the force
increased, and according to Mr.. Strouse
the number of men employed will be at
least eight hundred at the end OF five
wears. That Shoshone has been OF
great financial help to the city cannot
be denied, but it was only temporary
while a marble mill or kindred indus
try will be a permanent thing, and will
in the end prove TO be more than equal
to dozen Shoshones. 1t will mean
permanent residents and home build
ers, who will spend their earnings in
the city. Every line of business will
feel the added strength, while the 80
cial and educational phases will be IN
creased correspondingy.
Just how anyone, especially busi'
ness man, can pick fault with the pro-
posal to bring the marble mill here.
cannot be understood, but some of our
business men object to normal school,
county high school and other things
that would make Glenwood larger
and better town.
But the few kickers will lose their
strength and the people who favor a
greater town will gain control.

COLORADO AND SUGAR

In the language of the street urchin,
COLORADO is up against it good and
hard'
According to the result of the vote
in favor of reducing the tariff on al
most everything, and sugar is included
in the list. OF course, no one believes
the Colorado people are so near sighted
as to favor the reduction of the sugar
tariff, but their votes speak volumes
and are taken by eastern senators and
representatives that we want the tar
iff removed, or at least lowered.
Now comes the announcement that
at least six more sugar factories will
be erected in northern Colorado just
as soon as the promoters see that the
tariff will not be bothered to the ex-
tent of injuring the business in this
state. Colorado wants these factories
and the many homebuilders that must
necessarily come with them. 1t meaus
millions of dollars for the people Of
the state to secure them. Did the peo-
pie think of this when casting their
ballots last Novembers We fear there
were many of them who never gave a
second thought to the matter and the
result that must follow if congress
should obey the wish of this state as
sgnified by the ballots cast.
Should the tariff be reduced and the
six factories refuse to come into the
northern fields, we can blame no one
but the people who voted for that same
thing OF course, some will say it is
too late to rectify the mistake. 1t is not
too late to try. Let each one interest
ed in this question use his influence
have the tariff let alone as it is.
But when it is done, remember the
close shave the state has had and when
another election comes along, east yohr
lot with the republican party, the par
tyithat favors the protective tariff for
our industries. The democrats favor
tariff removal on many things and re-
duction on all the rest. Sugar comes
in with the latter class. Thus it is up
to the Colorado voters to either ask
for tariff reduction or that the presen.
rates be la. alone.

TAFT COMING TO COLORADO

According to latest reports, Presi'
dent Taft will visit the state to spend
several hours in Montrose during the
ceremonies attending the opening of
the Gunnison tunnel.
With the President so close to Glen
wood, the board of trade should leave
no stone unturned to secure his pres
ence in our city. August is certainly
a scorching month in the eastern states
and if he could be induced to spend
even a day in Glenwood, it would be
the first step toward securing regular
summer visits from him in the future.
1t is true every town in the state
will seek a visit from the President,
but Glenwood has advantages over all
other places, and these advantages
should be brought forcibly to the at
tention of the President, that he could
arrange his trip to allow n stop here
with us.
Let the executive committee of the
board of trade take the initiative and
take every step necessary in the mat.
