Sustain Roosevelt Policies of Conserv-

SENATOR AMMONS SQuELCHED

That the American National Live
Stock association is in hearty accord
with the Roosevelt Pinchot Taft poll

their support to the present admins
tration in its work of reclaiming and
developing the Great West and carry
ing out the policies so ably and con
scientiously begun by Mr.. Pinchot
with the hearty approval of Presidents
Roosevelt and Taft and Secretary Viii
son was made very plain last Saturday
when the association in annual session
in Denver placed it's unanimous eu'
dorsement upon the present conserva
tion policies.
Two prominent recruits to the ranks
of the progressives were Isaac Baer of
Rio Blanco and w. J. Whinnery of
Hinsdale who declared that they could
not longer in good conscience continue
as brakes upon the wheels of progress
but that they wanted to get into the
band wagon and henceforth travel with
the progressive bunch.
Both of these men have heretofore
fought the forest reserve policy, but
they say there is nothing in it and ad-
init, as the Post pointed out several
years ago, that the reserves are here
to stay. that they are a part of per
manent government policy and that
more concessions of just and reasona-
BILE nature can be secured by approach
ing the department in fair, honest
and manly manner and by reasonable
cooperation than by being constantly
on the fight and thus rendering it I'M
possible for the department to DO its
best by the stockmen or the general
public.
Another feature of the meeting was
the complete discrediting of former
Senator f. NJ. Ammons, that prince ii
peanut politicians whose chief strength
lies in his ability to play to the gal
leries and to foment disgruntled
spirit and who by his beligerent atti
tude is more responsible than any othe,
man for the present unfortunate dis
ruption in the ranks of Colorado stock
men.
The account of the meeting, AS pub
lished in the Republican, is as follows:

servation policy was indorsed, includ
ing as it did strong pat on the back
for Clifford Pinchot, sounded the death

once took charge of all the property
of the bankrupt and will conserve the

He will probably invoice the stocks
as soon as possible and make his re
port to the referee as to the result.
The liabilities of the A. Cohn Mer-
camille company as filed with the ref

On Sunday, January 9, the bars con
nceted with Denver hotels and cafes
were closed tight. bartenders and port
ers completely absented themselves
from the booze distributing counters
over which they had heretofore been
accustomed to preside seven days in
the week. The ''Not at Home sigl
was everywhere in evidence. Even
such well known and popular fellows
as Tom and Jerry were forced to ab
dicate the Bacchanalian throne over
which they had so long held undisput-
cd sway. Hotel guests were not able
to tip the porter strong enough to in
duce that individual, always obliging
when properly approached, to serve
private drinks in private rooms simply
because the porter was not able to ge5
the goods.
Those who ate in restaurants and had
\ been in the habit of calling for n

,them a couple of small bits of dr.
bread with faint suspicion of ham
between them, the same morsel, per
haps, which had been served to forty
or fifty people before they came in

DOING sign all over Denver one week
ago last Sunday.
In other words, Denver was dry.
Drier, perhaps, than it had ever been
before. And why? The wholesale
liquor dealers have been seeing visions
of morality and dreaming Temperance
dreams of late and that is one of the
best of signs that some one is being
driven into tight corner.
A committee of Cuisines men
(names not given) had been induced to
make the rounds and request all
hotel and restaurant proprietors to alb
solutely close their bars on Sunday
and to desist from serving liquors with
meals or otherwise on the Lord s day
The bonifaces had read the handwrit
ing-they had been reading it for SOM
time and they were delighted with al
opportunity to "stand from under

Therefore, they welcomed the ere

A week OF DISASTERS IN COLORADO

The past week has certainly been
one of unusual disaster. so far as Colo
RADIO and Colorado people are concerned
Last Sunday morning a Colorado
Midland freight train, after passing
through the big Busk-Ivanhoe tunnel
soon got beyond the control of the en-
gineer and brakemen and rushed mad
ly down the steep mountain grade, ali
efforts of the frantic crew to check
the speed being mockingly answered
by increased momentum until, striking
Arkansas Junction, the engine left the
track, the ears following it down the
mountainside in dreadful mass OF
wreckage.
As result of that dreadful acci-
dent four men are dead. as follows.
II. C. Smith. Leadville, conductor;
Marshall Rich. Cardiff, fireman; II. d.
Fair Cardiff, brakeman. and Edward
Davenport, Michigan. The wounded
are Henry Forest, engineer, leg broken;
w. +. Anglois, brakeman, badly bruis
ed and shocked. and Bert Harter,
Grand Rapids, Mich, shoulder injured.
And then there was the Rio Grande
wreck at Snowden, near Leadville, in
which three men lost their lives, an ac-
count Of this accident being given n
another column Of the Post. g. NJ.
The Glenwood post., 1910-01-22

Henry, the fireman, was a nephew of
Marion Henry, former sheriff of Eagle
county, and well known in Glenwood
while Thomas Kreis, the engineer WAS
relative of Jack Krcis, the barber,
and son.in.law of Mrs. Julia Richard
son, of this city.
Marshall Rich. the Midland fireman
who was killed in last Sundays wreck,
was nephew of Mrs. C. ID. Fuller,
living south of Glcn%ood Mrs. Fuller
accompanied the body to the old home
in Missouri for burial.
And then there was that dreadful
accident in the Gunnison tunnel when
n number of the workmen were over
come by the insidious gases, four of the
men dying almost instantly, p. p. Nc
Murray, the fifth victim. dying Mon
day and Chas. Z. Purden, E. II. Nc
Murray, C. j. Mccormick and Ed.

9 men passing away in great agony

and that organization. in view of the
lack of support which it has met this
year, was endcavoring to find ways of
going after the convention effectively.
Mr. Lucas came to the rescue, and vol
unteerrd to shoulder the expense of
going to the convention, and Mr.. Bush
not only gave his personal assistance
but sent Lee EIaney, the railways ad
vertising agent, to boost the work.
Armed with pictures and literature,
they iourneyed to San Antonio week
ago and have been working like beav.
ers. One of their stunts was arranging
an evenings entertainment at which 4

and a number of lantern slides made
from negatives furnished by Secretary
II. G. Overlook, We're displayed.
A convention of three hundred peo-
pie does not seem large. but when it
is remembered that they remain two
full weeks. it will be seen that it is
equal to one days convention of
1000 people, and in addition it is a
convention o. che Kind of people who
