THE BATTLE FOR INCOME TAX.

THE BATTLE FOR
 INCOME TAX.
 Alfred Henry Lewis in New York
 american. .
 The senate signs of tariff war deep en and multiply MT. Aldrich is alarmed with an alarm visible to the naked eye. I have been among the statesmen" I have been going to and fro in the congressional world and walking down in it.
 In attempting a picture of tariff or rather senate-conditions. it is dif- ficult to tell where description should begin, more difficult to say where de scription should end, and yet. from what I hear and see and feel ana mentally smell, we are upon the threshold of a mighty movement.
 It is hard to dig anything out of a "statesman,' especially when that thing relates greatly to himself A statesman" feels so much more than he expresses. thinks so mucn more than he says, that it is no eas, mat ter to tab him up.
 For example. Mir. Du Pont of Del aware-that state whereof the late Senator IngalIs said, Tt has three one when the tide is in"-is for an income tax, and has said so to Mir. Aidrich and diver brother senators besides, and yet, were I to put the question to that gentleman of pow der, he would, to search the back woods for a simile, go into the water like a mink.
 So also of Mir. Guggenheim-eQual- ly for an income tax sure to hide. Other senators-not to be quoted by name-will tell you the income tax positions of both these gentlemen, while speaking vaguely or not at all Of their own.
 By that same voice of truth-tellins hearsay you find that Mir. Rayner oi Maryland and Mir. Martin of Virgina have privily notified mankind that they, too, will vote aye" for an in come tax whenever the question is rut to a roll call-and they have beer counted the other way.
 Al these terrifying matters arr better known to Mir Aldrich thai thev are to me He gets them frs hand, gets them direct. And it Il this that strikes the color from hi tariff cheek. He discovers that m democrats, whether headlong or re inc.aht, are an unbroken front 70 income tax. To these, inquiry ha compelled me to add, not alone Sen ator Du Pont and Senator Gugger keim. but Senators Nelson, DoIiive. Cummins. Borah, Dixon, Brown, I4 toilette, Crawford, Beveridge-ai these and other republican senators
 Income tax in the senate has square heel and toe majority, an thas far Mir. Aldrich's best effort have been unable to shake it. Pc consequence his tariff is facing ds feat The thought touches his hear like ice. To defeat tariff, to promot income tax. what should that mean It means to protection" what ax an woodman mean to the tree. means "protection's" downfall.
 More and worse-from the Aldric viewpoint-it means the passing c New England. For a century and third. since ever the nation coul walk alone, New England has playe first fiddle in national affairs. Shoul income tax appear and compel-as i would-"protection to disappear

SAVED TRAIN
FROM A WRECK

There might have been a serious
wreck on The Rio Grande's Montrose
line. at a point just across the river
from this city and not far from the
railway pumping plant. had it not
man, w. ID. Kruger. The latter. on
Wednesday afternoon, was walking
along the railroad track en- route TO
d ranch. Suddenly he came upon a
rail that had been twisted and broken
by the heat. making the track i'm
passable at that point and making a
wreck certain if train should pass
along
The young man quickly turned
back, went TO the depot and notified
the superintendent's office OF the
twisted rail This was about 4 O'Clock.
in very short time freight train
was due to pass over the track and
the passenger trains from Montrose
was due at 5:55 o'clock
Quickly a number of workmen
were sent to the scene of the broken
rail aud 4 new rail was laid. the track
repaired and wreck averted.
II was certainly most fortunate
that Kruger noticed the broken rail.
Yet IL Is reported that Kruger's act
was not considered of sufficient i'm
of thanks.
II is said that this is the second
time Kruger has been able to prevent
a wreck from occurring on a Rio
Grande line.

boys get through with them this

have known fer some time that Glen
wood wasn't fast enough this year to
cope with Grand Junction but it has
taken a long time to convince the
Water Babies OF this fact. The Glen
wood boys are all good fellows and
are all right except when they oc-
casionally try to steal a game, but
they cant play in the class with
Goldy and the Smudgeites and the
quicker they learn this and resign
themselves to the loss of :he state
championship. the better it will be
for them. We don't think that there
are over three or four teams in the
state which can beat Glenwood but

those that can, and the whole city. is

Charlie HickIin is dead. He
died at st. Joseph's hospital Wednes-
day. There are great many people
in this city who will remember the
genial Charlie Hicklin. who was rep
resenting the Midland road in this
city during the Espano-American war.
He made friends as readily as duck
takes to water. He did not seek
friends. they came to him. He was
one of the most efficient servants
that the Midland road ever had here.
He has for many years been the gem
eral agent of the Mallory line of
steamers running from Galveston to
New York. He was sick but for two
days, slight ailment of the stom-
ach-nothing serious anyone thought,
but he succumbed. really before his
friends knew that he was sick. Those
who remember Charlie Hicklin re-
member him with pleasure, because
of his SO many lovable7 qualities.

1t does beat all how the people of
Colorado have neglected the currant
for here we are again up against the
picking season with not enough of
the fruit to fill bushel basket and
the market crying for 1t. We still
persist in clinging to the Cherry cur
rant Cor the Versailles, as some
choose to call il, for it is one and
the same thing). Fay's- Prolific is
good and has a longer bunch than
the Cherry: but ii seems that the end
berries are smaller than are those on
the tips of the Cherry. The Red
Gross, one of Jacob Moore's seedlings,
has come through fairly we'll, but our
folks are not planting 1t to any ex
tent. The old Red Dutch is still
found in some of our plantations. but
II does not yield the same weight OF
berries as the Cherry and Fay's Pro-
life. With the Cherry for red and
White Versailles for white. but little
more can be wished. In the getting
of good fruit everything does not de-
pend upon the kind. The currant
must have good. deep soil above all
else. 1t needs plenty of irrigation
and, If shade can be given it in the
midday for some hours, il does much
better in our bright sunlight. The
great trouble with currant culture In
this country is the careless neglec,
of growers in fighting the worms. fol
the most of them do not do it.-Den.

employees at the bureau of engraving
and printing have been shifted from
the monthly payroll to the per-diem
basis. This was done by Secretary
of the Treasury McVeagh and Direct
or Ralph. with view to placing the
bureau on what they believe will
prove to be a more strictly business
system by the order.
The practice has been to deduct
any lost time from the annual leave
of 80 days or the sick leave of 80
days. Under the new order, day
lost will mean days pay lost. The
employees, however, will still retain
the privilege of 80 days annual leave
and 80 days sick leave.
Director Ralph believes that under
these new plans the bureau will be
able TO recompense employees for
working overtime. thing which was
impossible under the old plan: that
more work will be accomplished, and
that there will be fewer absentees

But to get a definite idea Of the
growth in popularity of the telephone
ali the increase in the number in
use, one should take note of the
growth of the Western Electric COM
pany, the principal manufacturers
of telephones and telephone supplies
in this country. In 1902 telephone

one million and a quarter, in 1904 a

in five years of million telephones,
or approximately over 80 per cent.

COPPERFlELD JUST NOW
WIDE OPEN TOWN

The stories brought in from Cop
perfield, the town on Snake river, by
persons arriving from there sound
like the tales of many another new
railroad and mining town in the hey
day of their meteoric career.
1t is related that it is a wideopen
town. Hundreds of laborers on the
Northern railway and Ok Bow con.
struction make 1t their headquarters
especially when they get their time
check and take a layoff. Then there
is something doing. All the booze
necessary can be had and that is
about all they want. The shrewd
sport" is there also, ready and cap
able of separating the laborer from
his coin and 1t Is done In the most
scientific way.
The gay siren Is also on the
ground, logged out with all her gay
fluffles and cosmetic beauty.
And in all, so report has 1t, Cop
perfield is the king pin of all the
northwest towns. 1t is the quintes
ence of all that is loud and immoral,
the place is setting a pace as hot as
those of the Internal regions whence
comes the metal for which the town
has been appropriately named.-Ba
