A Harvard professor declares that
Judge Lindsey's life is in danger. He
must have gotten the information
from Little Ben himself. An early
chapter of the Beast and the Jungle
informed us that the juvenile judge
entertained grave fear that his scalp
was in jeopardy. But from what we
have CLEANED of Lindsey's life's his
tory he is his own worst enemy.
Hasn't he volunteered the informa-
tion that in the early stages of his
immaculate and sweet-scented career
he attempted self destruction? In this
his intention was good, but his exc
cution was somewhat to the bad.

The Republican editors of the state
found themselves in pretty predica-
men at their meeting held in Denver
Saturday when they were asked in
regard to their vote on Cannon and
on the Aldrich tariff "a straw vote
taken by the Chicago Tribune) what
they knew of either. The vote of the
Republican ed tors of Colorado
against Cannon for speaker of the
next congress was ID for and 80
against, and on the tariff bill, 13 for
and 35 against. 1t developed that but
one editor had read the bill. that
none of them were familiar with the
measure, and as for their opposition
to Cannon, they just opposed him, it
seems, on general principles. Well,
whether the Republican high-brows
knew what they were doing or not,
they were right in voting against
Cannon and right in voting against
the Aldrich tariff law.

What can be accomplished by a
man of thrift, under most adverse
conditions. has been demonstrated by
a man of wealth, who made a wager
OF $4,000 that he could work two
years as a common laborer and dur
ing that time save $400. The most re-
munerative position he held during
the two years time did not command
salary of more than $4,000 month
and he worked for salary as low as
$500 month He won his bet, hav-
ing saved in addition to the 100000
surplus of $5975. Most men who
consider $500 or $3.50 day almost
poverty wage, would regard this feat
as remarkable, but there should be
nothing unusual about 1t. Read the
history Of the majority Of men who
started with nothing and accumulated
vast fortunes you will find that at the
beginning their earnings were very
small. Blu. 1t was not what they earn
ed which opened for them the road
to wealth-it was what they saved.

WARS ON MISTLETOE.
Tree Expert Calls Kissing Bough

One Of Secretary Wilson's tree experts
IS out in an attack on the mistletoe. and

the Christmas kissing bough some hard
names. one Of the names II is called is
''phoradendron." which. when translated,
Is tree thief"
Speaking generally" says the expert.
''mistIetoe Is held IN rather high regard
everywhere. because Of It's Inherently
interesting mode OF life, because Of the
traditional and historical atmosphere
which invests the original mistletoe Of
Europe, and because OF its desirability
for the above and other reasons as q dec
orative Christmas shrub"
Nevertheless, he says, It does an I'm
mense amount Of damage TO trees in the
Southwest. Tt fastens itself upon its
host. the tree" he says, penetrating its
tissues. and drawing noUrishment from
It and reforming II and sapptng its vital

tiers Of mistletoe. Mistletoe seed when
ripe IS incIosed In a clear. sticky pulp.
covered by tough. semI-transparent skin,
