The United States senate public
lands committee has refused to
recommend the granting of 10000
acres of unoccupied public lands
to the state OF Colorado for the
benefit of its educational institu
tions, and Senator Guggenheim,
in the generosity OF large nature,
has introduced a substitute meas
ure granting 1000 acres to the
Agricultural college, to be doled
out in not less than 40 acres nor
more than 160 acres. in unoccu-
pied public lands and not in con
tiguous tracts. Guggenheim must
be trying to even up on the Alaska
coal deals of the Guggenheim-
Morgan syndicate, but in those
deals the acres were computed by

TRUTH ATLAST

In a speech delivered at the
Lincoln dinner, at the Waldorf
Astoria hotel in New York on
the night of February 18th, Presi-
dent TAFT declared that the pres
ent high prices are mainly due to
an increase in the measure OF
value-the volume of money. His
exact words. as given in italics in
the New York Herald next day.
were:
"The reason for the rise in the
cost of necessities can easily be
traced to the increase in our meas
ure of values, the precious metal,
gold. and possibly in some cases
to the combinations in restraint
of trade"
Here is the truth at last. This
confession would have been worth
hundreds of thousands OF votes
to the democratic party IN 1896
when the democrats were advo-
eating more money in order TO
protect the country from falling
prices and the republicans were
protesting that it did not make
any difference whether we had
much money or little. provided it
was all good. Mr.. Taft now en-
dorses the cumulative theory OF
money and attributes high prices
to more money" in order to
shield his party from the charge
of raising prices by means of the
protective tariff. Thanks to the
president for this new vindication
of our party. He is right in point
ing to the increased production
OF gold, as the chief cause of high
prices-only a worldwide cause
could account tor worldwide
increase in lrices-but he does
not attach quite enough import
ance to the influence exerted by
the trusts. The tariff enables the
trusts to raise prices in America
above the worlds level and tina,
can not be charged to an increa c
in the supply of money.
But let us rejoice that the presi
dent has been forced to confess
the democrats right in their de-
mand for mere money as the only
means OF checking falling prices
and restoring a price level which
would remuneratc the wealth pro-
ducers for their toll. When may
we expect another yindic alton

RAMBLING REMARKS
By Geo. o. Blake

new council this week ana was
pleased at most of the work they
did. The civic league had del
egation headed by its president
in attendance and made some
very pertinent and valuable sug-
gestions on the line of public i'm
provements. The council seemed
to be in entire sympathy with the
suggestions and expressed a will
lingness to carry out all that they
were able to carry out. The sug-
gestion that more artistic and
sanitary drinking fountain be in
stalled met with a hearty recep-
ton. in fact it was proposed by
one member that there should be
two or three such fountains in
stalled and the matter was re-
ferred to a committee to ascer-
tain prices, etc. In referring to
the matter of parking the streets,
the league stated that many had
desired to park in front of their
property and plant trees this
spring. but had been unable to do
so because the curb line was not
known. 1t was then ascertained
that there is an ordinance fixing
the curb line on residence streets
at ten feet from the lot line. Mr.
Ernst, who was one of the dele
cation from the league. was asked
his opinion of that regulation. |
was much pleased that his views
coincide with what | have eX-
pressedh eretofore in these col
umns, that fifteen feet should be
the line. He explained that a
less number of feet would place
the trees SO close to the cement
walks and curb that the roots
would raise them from their places.
The council requested the league
to prepare plans showing its
scheme for parking the various
streets and present it at the next
meeting of the council. with the
assurance that their suggestions
would be very much appreciated.
The matter of a new platform at
the place where farmers take
water was referred to a committee.
At the suggestion of the league
one electric light was ordered
placed at the entrance of each of
the churches and the opera house.
The marshal was instructed to
enforce the ordinances regarding
the running at large of stock,
chickens. dogs. etc. Barb wire
fences along the walks were or
dered down. and the marshal in
structcd to see that the order is
carried out. In short, all the re-
commentators of the league
were favorably received and so
far as practicable at present we're
ordered carried out. But as | am
