ROSY PROSPECT FOR THE
TOURIST BUSINESS IN COLO
RAD0 FOR THE The YEAR YEAR 1910
From Tuesdays Daily.

From Tuesdays Daily.
T. e. Fisher. general passenger
agent of the Colorado & Southern
Railroad company. is very optimistic
in relation to the tourist business in
Colorado this year. In speaking Of
the matter in Denver few days ago
Mr.. Fisher said that he was conf
dent from advance Information in his
possession that the number OF visit
ors to this section fthe country
would be from 25 per cent larger next
summer than during any previous
season.
The news from the Lone Star state
is to the effect that travel from that
section will be very much larger than
in many years.
The rates will not go into effect
until next month and the movement
will not be under way before the first
OF June. However. they are quite a

day.
The nasturtium is of the easiest
culture of any of ANIMALS. They do
not require as rich soil as many
other ANIMALS. The seed should be
sown within the next two weeks.
They delight in a sunny location.
Follow culture directions given on
packets and you can't go wrong.
They will give a world of bios

keep our parks in shape. They need
attention now.
Let US get behind this movement

few things that we can all enjoy. I
hope that the demand for nasturtiums
will make 1t necessary for the Daily
Record to purchase 500 additional
packets of seed.

The EXAMPLE OF CANON CITY
From Tuesdays Daily.

from Iuesuay DAILY.
Numerous good things have come
out of Canon City. 1t has long been
a community of attractive homes and
the center OF great agricultural and
horticultural wealth. Now new
laurel Is sought Its public spirited
citizens plan to make It bi.ssom as
an Eden by the planting OF flowers
and shrubs so that It may take on
the beauties of a southern California
community.
Colorado Springs could take les
son from such enterprise. The cost
OF flowers and shrubs is trivial and
their presence Is an endless source
OF pride and qualification. Besides.
they greatly enhance the attractive
ness OF residences and they are the
greatest OF all aids to civic beauty.
Who has not admired the humble
dwellings of the poor when found In
bower of shrubbery! without this
setting the same homes would appear

terprise.
1t is matter of deep regret to the
officers and members Of the Canon
City Civic improvement league that
they are unable to furnish the men
and teams this year to clean up the
public streets and alleys but under
the circumstances they are powerless
to do anything. They are none the
less desirous now for a City Beau

and they request every resident and
Householder to get busy" next Fri

general cleanup of their premises.

Warden and Mrs. lyman entertain
ed the members of the Assembly club
and large number OF special guests
at a dance in the new hospital build
ing at the prison last night
The affair was designed to com
memorate the opening of the new
building and was a very enjoyable
event. The building was brilliantly
lighted for the occasion and with its
floral decorations presented a very
pretty appearance. Music was fur
nished by the prison orchestra and
was Of an excellent character. A
feature of the entertainment was the
readings given 81 one Of the convicts.
Punch and waters were served
throughout the evening. At q late
hour the company dispersed: it's
members carrying away with them
most agreeable memories OF the
gathering and OF the hospitality OF
their entertainers. There were more
than a hundred people present,
among whom were a number OF young
men connected with the engineering
corps of the Colorado Southern Irri-
CATION company. Included among the
out-of-town visitors were half a
dozen young people. from Pueblo who
were home guests of Warden and

Editor Daily Record:
1 see that the Daily Record heads
the list with another good suggestion.
Your offer of the 6th of free nastur-
tium seed is a good one. We have
fine people, fine homes and the fin
est little city in the county. But the
majority of the homes do not have
one single spot of color.
Eastern people coming from cities
where parks, flowers and shrubbery
are considered just as necessary as
clean streets, clean water and good
roads, always comment on the lack
of flowers. So many times when COM
ing to the greenhouses they make this
remark: Well, this seems more like
home to see some flowers.
know that there is nothing that
has an influence for good equal
to flowers. Race. color, station, all
are equal when 1t comes to the love
of flowers. A few flowers Will do
more to cheer the lonely heart than
anything. This is where we can make
a decided hit with our tourists.
Eastern people note the absence OF
flowers the first hour spent in our

We hope that everybody will help
spread the gospel OF Arbor Day and
Bird Day. Plant the trees and flowers,
keep down the weeds, beautify the
lawns, build arbors for vines, pro-
tect the birds.
Arbor Day is a school holiday. 1t
would be splendid custom II we
could make 1t an annual picnic day,
In which teachers, parents and pu-
pills would go out to the parks and
the hills to enjoy the beauties OF ma
ture. and the good fellowship they
would find in each others company.
The children in most OF the grades
have read through all Of the supple
mentary reading we have. We could
use more to good advantage. 1t has
been suggested to me by some that
anyone wishing to do some favor to
the school present a set Of supple
mentary readers. Such a gift would
be likely to do more good than almost
any other. / should be glad to have
several people do this right away II
they like.
The names OF Eva Fowler and
Claude Spangler. tribunes of room 8,
Washington, have been given me for
special attention this month for the
excellent performance OF duty.
We shall be grateful TO the patrons
for their cooperation In the effort
we are making to improve the writ
ing. Encourage the children to prac-
tice at home II It is convenient: but.
above all. urge them to follow the
Instructions their teachers give In re-
gard to the practice Carelessness.

none. for It only confirms the mis-

WASHINGTON Dec. 3O-tSpecial Tele-
eramD-A spirited attack upon the pro
posal to elevate James H. Elliott 10 the
federal bench is contained in a letter ad
dressed to Senator Gamble by state
Railroad Commissioner George Rice OF
South Dakota
Commissioner Rice declares that Mr.. r..
lott has been railroad attorney for
tv enty five years and that as such he -
disqualified from sitting as Judge m
cases affecting railroads Mr.. Rice's let-
ter was written as a result Of the an
that Senator Gamble had for
merly endorsed Mr. Elliott for nomina-
tion to the place on the district bench IN
South Dakota that viii be vacated by the
transfer Of John Emmett Garland to the
commerce court.
Senator Crawford today formally en-
dorsed Mr.. Elliott lie called at the
White House for the purpose. In a con
ference with the president he made II
known that he joined with Senator Gam
bic in urging that Mr.. Elliott be elevated
to the bench.
While Mr.. Erlett now looms up as the
probable nominee to the judgeship there
is bound to be a good deal OF controversy
over the case before action is taken by
the president Mr. Elliott has fine en-
dorsements. He has been recommended
for the appointment by the South Dakota
senators, former Governors HerriOd and
Elrod all the members OF the state su-
preme court, Wilbur :. Glass. who was a
candidate for congress. Charles NJ. Harri-
son. chairman Of the committee ON resO-

iary of lawyers engaged in corporation

The Rice letter il a torrid document. II
numbers about 1900 words. Mr.. Rice writes
in part:
Mr.. Elliott has been an attorney for the
Milwaukee road constantly for twenty
five years. For some time past and at
least during all the time since the railway
companies OF the country combined to raise
freight rates they have been organizing
all OF their employees and urging them by
public addresses and otherwise asking the
increasing OF freight rates. Is it rea-
sonable TO suppose that Mr.. Elliott has not
been in harmony with this action? II 50,
would the company have taken him from
the class of local attorneys and made him
general attorney for the state of South
Dakota at a large salary? II you had d
case against the Milwaukee Railroad com
pany where there was 500 or even less
involved would you consent that NJ
Elliott should act as referee to try the
case, even though he had not been ar
attorney in that particular case?

Council Bluffs,
st, Joseph Not Ready
For the Fruit Show;
May Go Elsewhere
Proposition to Take Big Exposition
Slightly larger Than at First
Contemplated.

President Eeeline Vice President Hess
and Messrs Hamilton. wallace. Reye.
Dooittle and other officers Of the National
Horticultural congress, returned from st.
Joseph No. yesterday morning. where
they went 90 have conference with the 81.
Joseph men relative To fixing the location
II the congress and its 1911 exposition. The
Council Bluffs delegation was Hospitality
entertained and given complete eNposi-
ton Of the ability Of the Missouri city to
handle the biz national fruit show. but the
congress officers and founders all returned
with the exception Of Roy Wilcox and Paul
G. Mooney. who continued their journey
farthur south. without leaving assurances
that st. Joseph was to get the next expo
sition or fixing definitely upon the fact
that it was not to be held again in Coun-
ell Bluffs.
The Council Bluffs men went fully into
the details Of the big enterprise and clear
ly showed the st. Joseph men that the To-
cation Of the exposition meant heavy re-
sponsibility, financially, mentally and
physically. It proved to be a larger propo-
sition than was anticipated and the St.
Joseph representatives asked for reason
able time 10 consider it,
The Council Bluffs men had most pleas
ant visit They we're dined by their hosts
and then taken I'm automobiles about the
city. The Auditorium building, where the
exposition would be held II located In the
city. was inspected. II is a handsome build
ing that cost more than 500 600. and fully
capable Of taking care Of the national fruit
show. It is not as wide, however, as the
Council Bluffs auditorium, but is longer.
and is provided with a big basement story
with cemented floors that could be used
for large part OF the exhibition, especially
the machinery and spraying demonstra-
lions.
The st. Joseph people manifested a keen
desire to secure the exposition. but could
not fix any definite time when their re-
ply might be expected. A reasonable time
will be granted, and IL the acceptance Of
the proposition with the conditions imposed
is not forthcoming the claims of other
cities will be considered and given the
preference.
Several members of the Council Bluffs
delegation went to st. Joseph with distinct
aversion to the plans for changing the To-
cation, and they returned more than ever
convinced that the exposition should not
leave here.
A sentiment is growing that would require
| slight encouragement to become dominant
| in favor OF making an effort to enlist
Omaha in the 1911 exposition on some propo-
sition that would be mutually helpful "a
