WHAT OF sTHE TAfLlNosr

Have you ever visited a. mining
camp? II SO, You have doubtless been
interested in the various processes
through which the ore goes. says the
Commoner. Mr.. .Bryan's ably cdIte:l
paper. 1t is first washed and some of
the worthless material is thus discard.

last 1t goes through the smelter ami
the refined product comes forth. But
what OF the taiiings. the worthless
stuff that remains after the ore is ex-
tracted? At first 1t Is dumped upon
any convenient spot as waste, but af-
ter awhile 1t begins to pollute the W.T.
Ter and TO destroy the crops In the
valleys below. Then those who are
suffering injury rise up and demand
that the mining companies take care
OF the tailings. and these companies
finally construct expensive reservoirs
for the impountling of the tatlings.
Those who feel Indifferent to the
evils OF intemperance ought to visit a
mining district; they may find an
illustration Of what Is going on da!l;'
In society. The liquor interests en-
haust ingenuity in devising processes
for the extraction OF both money anil

that is passing through their mills
and they throw the tailngs out upon
society. The mining companies fln,l

ceetls the value Of the ore. So the
saloons are not able to extract ALL
the Good from those WHO pass through
their doors: they stop when the cost
exceeds. the income.
But, society. more considerate aul
actuated by higher motive. proceeds
to care for and. If possible. reform
those VINO have been brought to th,
verge of ruin by drink Has society
no interest in the liquor question?

SENATOR WOOD RUNS AMUCK
Clie.teIe Would rot Stand for Per
sonal Nschise- Hos. Newt Par.
rish Probable Successor

With the Republican primaries
in Trinidad this week came the
passing of Frank r. Wood, state,
senator from Las Animas county,
and the district including Bent,
Baca and Prowers. He will not
be renominated by the senatorial
convention Saturday, it is said.
and his removal from the scene of
political activity takes away man
who has been regarded during his
career in the state senate as rep
resentative of the corporations
notably the Colorado Fuel and
Iron company.
Wood was even beaten in his
own precinct, it is stated, and his
probable successor on the Repub.
lican ticket will be Hon. A. N.
Parrish. now representative from
the district. Dan w. Stone has
been urged by his friends to take
the nomination, but has declined,
and Newt Parish seems the
probable follower of Cashmere
Barela's old running mate.
The district is strongly Repub-
lican, and while Wood and his
friends may feel bitter enough to
cause it to go otherwise, the Colo
RADIO Fuel & Iron vote is pretty
hard to overcome. Wood has been
a member of the senate for about
eight years. He began as a shoe
merchant in Trinidad, and pros
pered until now be is the owner Of
a coal mine.
Woods defeat is credited to his
own activity in attempting to
build up personal machine.
Barela is senator from the dis
trict which merely takes in Las
Animas county alone, while
Woods district is hoated with
Bent, Baca, and Prowers. If
Parrish is nominated it will be the
first time that man has been
nominated for the legislature out
side Las Animas in years.
Woods enemies say they have
punished him for the crime of in
gratitude.
You never could tell where to
find him." one of them declared
yesterday. He did not stick
with his friends and that's why he
will be relegated to private life
