The Curtain Falls

Over the tear drop. over the kiss.
Over the crimes that blotted and blurred,
Over the wound OF the angry, word.
Over the deeds in weakness done,
Over the battles lost and won,
Now at the end OF the flying year,
Year that tomorrow will not be here.
Over our freedom, over our thralls,
In the dark and the midnightg the curtain
falls.
Over our gain and over our loss,
Over our crown inc over our cross.
Over the fret Of our discomfort.
Over the Ill that we never meant.
Over the. scars OF our self-deniai,
Over the ftrength that conquered trial

Over our shifting, hurrying moods,

President Theodore N. Vail has
sent to the $4,000 stockholders of
the American Telephone and Tele-
graph company the annual report of
the directors, showing that 1909 was
year of remarkable activity, pro-
gress and prosperity. The import
ant activities include the purchase of
substantial interest in the Western
Union Telegraph company, the con-
version of over hundred million
dollars of bonds into stock, the in
crease in the number of shareholders
by over nine thousand during the
year. and the rearrangement of ter

Enough coal has been found in
my state to run the fires of this coun-
try for 800 years, but the conserva-
tionists have bottled up the coal"
declared Representative Taylor of
Colorado, Democrat, before the
house committee on ways and means
Saturday, speaking in support of the
Mondell bill to provide a bond issue
of $30,000,000 to complete the recla-
nation projects.
Don't you approve of conserva-
tion?" asked Chairman Payne.
"Of course. | do" replied Taylor,
but / think that as SO much of our
land has been set apart in this man
ner, the government might authorize
the issuance of these bonds to make
good the contracts vita thousands of
settlers who have invested their all
for gold brick.
Taylor charged that cattle herders
rented the Colorado lands for quar-
ter of cent an acre and that was the
reason why the issue was sought by
the government.
He answered ex-Secretary Gar
field s statement before the Ballinger-
Pinchot investigation committee that
this bond issue for s30,000,000 was
unnecessary by showing that Secre-
tary Garfield had himself become
convinced and recognized the neces-
sity of additional aid in the practical
and expeditions completion of the
projects besides the ordinary receipts
from the reclamation fund, and mad
himself adopted the plan of allowing
certificates for work done.
He said that the present bill was
fffNer
more legal and practical form that
very idea and necessity in the same
principle only making the certificates
so that they would be more salable
and could be sold at par.
He pleaded for the settlers under
the Colorado projects in particular
and answered a running fire of ques-
tions and objections propounded by
the committee. Some members crit
icised the reclamation service and
objected to this measure because
they claim 1t was stated when the
law was passed that the receipts from
the public lands would be all that
would ever be asked for. and that the
reclamation service had undertaken
too many projects.
He said that Orman & Cook and
fifteen other firms had become bank
rupt on government work throughout
the West during the last four years.
He showed where the receipts of
the reclamation funds had been di-
minished because of the increasing of
forest reserves and the withdrawal
of coal and other lands from entry.
and thereby depriving that fund of
many millions of dollars which the
public and the reclamation service
had right to anticipate.
Taylor depicted in vivid terms the
hardships of the settlers and home
steaders under the projects waiting
for years for the government to COM
plete the work and furnish the water
that had been promised them.
Taylor also appeared before the
committee on agriculture and made
an address in behalf of the fruit
