REPUBLICAN,
SAVINGS ARE
SQUANDERED
SFAFROTH'S ADMINISTRATION
BANkRUPTS THE STATE
OF COLORADO.
Sells State Land to Exploitation Com
panies. Settlers Pay to Specu.
lators Double Price.

A condition presents itself in Colo
rado today that should claim the un-
prejudiced attention of every citizen.
FROM prosperous state, with REQ
ord Of growing achievements among
our sister states, twenty-one months
ago We have become a bankrupt COM
monwealth and are today held up to
the gaze Of the people outside our
borders az being unable to pay our
| bills, properly maintain our institu-
tons or take equal rank with other
states in any line of governmental
achievement.
| Such in short are the results Of
twenty-one months of Democratic
rule.
When Gov. Shafroth assumed con-
troll Of Colorado's government there
was s445.OO0 in the treasury az a nest
egg. Today, even though the receipts
have exceeded those Of any other ad-
ministration by over one-half million
dollars tho state is broke, with over
half million dollars worth of un-
paid bills on the hook
When Democracy assumed control
people were coming to our state from
every state in the Union, not only for
health but for educational advantages.
Twenty-one months Of Kenehan talk
about hard times has so successfully
falsely advertised the financial condi.
ton Of our state institutions that now
Eastern prospective settlers who have
children to educate go elsewhere.
Twenty-one months ago our state
lands were being sold to actual set
tiers in small tracts for settlement
purposes only. Now they are being
sold to spectators in large tracts for
exploitation purposes and the settlers
are forced to pay double the price
the state receives. Less than sixty
days ago one company alone purchas-
ed 26,19O acres.
Twenty-one months ago tho leaser
Of state land, who had developed it to
state Of productiveness was permit
ted to buy it for home. or II some
one else purchased it the leaser was
paid one and one-half times the cost
Of his improvements for his trouble.
Today exploitation companies form
pools and crowd the original leasera
out, thus discouraging leasing Of lands
with the ultimate object of buying the
same.
At the close Of the three Republican
administrations every promise made
in their platforms had been fulfilled
to the letter and fulfilled at the reg
ular session of the assembly. During
the rwenty-one months of Democracy
her legislature has been in session 181
days and out Of seven promises but
one has been redeemed and that ono
would not have been enacted had It
not been for Republican support The
other redemptions were much like
paying a note by extending the time
and crasing the security.
The same condition prevails in ev-
cry department Of the state govern
ment. II weighed in a Democratic
pair Of loaded balances, this admins
tration would be found wanting.

Oh, yes. Where? Why, in your mind.
Of course Everybody has a perfect

GOLD FROM SOUTH AMERICA.

A mining expert, who has been look ing over the mineral regions of South America, predicts that the greatest gold producing regions on earth will be discovered, or rediscovered, in Boli- via and eastern Peru; further, that this century will witness the applica- tion of the term, the worlds treasure house." to the southern half of the western hemisphere. This opinion has been held by not a few competent prospectors, and one of them looks for an immense gold discovery in south ern Venezuela. in the regions where the now almost legendary lost gold mines of the JesuitS are said in exist.
 It is quite incredible that the sources whence the Incas dre" tehir enormous stocks of gold were exhausted by the primitive methods of those early times; there have been many causes operating to prevent the finding of those rich deposits. but that they will be opened up again is hardly to be doubted.
 Alaska. that prodigiously rich terri tory of the United States. has. seo far. produced gold to the value of $142, ,000. = 'VV anu tA l1 f'liilItlllA lfiiCN'A llld | somewhere in that vast northern country will be discovered the great mother lodcs of gold: and it is be- lieved that the placers of the Seward peninsula alone, on which the Nome is situated, contain up to 325,0O0000 of the yellow metal.
 It is likely that, almost any day, new gold discoveries will he made in this country discoveries that will sur pass any that have hitherto been made; and in fact geological experts look to Mexico equaling South Africa in gold production.
 So there is ample reason to believe that the western hemisphere will long continue to be d very heavy producer of gold. that prime factor in the none tary scheme of the world

THE DIFFERENCE.

The lawful wife and widow of Eng lands dead king. and the other woman of his later years. met beside his bier. says the Chicago Inter ocean. The wife. we are told. forgave if she did not forget.
 Alexandra of Denmark and England has had much to forgive. Her last for giving fills many a woman with won der and many man with reverence.
 We are often told that morals are the same in every civilized county. and that a modern constitutional monarch is. after all but q president elected for life.
 But there is a difference. There is d gulf between a European monarchy and the American republic This in cedent illustrates it.
 Let us try to imagine such d scene beside the coffin of Mckinley. or a Cleveland, or q Harrison, or a Hayes. or Grant, or Lincoln. or any American president on the roll that be- gins with the name of Washington
 It is not imaginable. It is unthink- able. It Is impossible. We all know that. Thank heaven that vae do
 This is not said in vainglory, nor to assert that American men are not sin ners as are men of other lands. or that we have not. as people. our share of hypocrisy.
 But at least our men in the nations highest place set no such example as that which produced this meeting be side Edward of England's grave. Nor are their wives compelled. by their love for them, to forgive publicly that which no wife can ever forget
 That which happened in Egland the other day would not-it could not happen in America. In this respect we may. without hypocrisy, give thanks that we are what we are

The Nervous American.

If the increase in insanity con tinues at its present rate, we shall all be insane 265 years from now" said Dr. J. H. Kellogg, a somewhat famous physician of Battle Creek, Michigan. in an address before the College of Physicians and Surgeons at Boston, the other day. But when that time comes. who will be left to pass upon the question of sanity? With every body insane. there will be nobody to admit that there is any insanity, and we shall simply have new standards of conduct with everybody passing as sane. Speaking seriously, however, Dr. Kellogg sounds a temperate note of warning. Physical degeneracy-or nervous degeneracy, to be more accu- rate-and chronic diseases are in creasing in the United States to an extent that is disquieting to all thoughtful people. Dr. Kellogg claims that it is due mostly to our manner of living; that women are SnoWlnS the results of this degeneraCy in the decreased birth rate and in their ina bility to nurse their own children. Nearly all physicians agree with Dr. Kelloggs conclusions. One medical writer made the startling assertion recently that everybody in the city of New York is a sufferer to some extent from neurasthenia- The fore runner of nervous prostration is neurasthenia. Everybody is living at high pressure, and almost everybody tries to live in town. in the midst of all the noises and distractions that distinguish town from country life Everybody praises the simple life of the country. but few turn their faces that way.
 And yet the simple life of the coun- try is the earthly paradise to which the mind of the business man in town constantly turns-he proposes to Ire tire" to the coutry when he has made his stake But. poor fellow, the larger his stake becomes the less ade- uuate it is to fulfill his notions of his needs. and his rainbow of rest re- mains in the distance.

It has often been noted that new and extraordinary crime is quickly followed by limitations. Scarcely had the news gone out to the world that pr. Hyde of Kansas City. convicted of murdering a patient by administering poison, had also attempted to kill others by inoculating them with dis ease germs. when the dispatches from St. Petersburg brought the informa- tion that a prominent doctor of that city had confessed to killing one of his enemies by inoculating him with cholera germs.

The contest in the Iowa primaries between the insurgents and the stand patters appears to have resulted in a dog-fall. It was undoubtedly bit ter campaign, but our democratic friends should not indulge in large anticipations of benefit from the re- publican row.

and that betrayals OF party faith are
the equivalent of party treason"
To the country citizen. accustom-
ed to the simple life. this informa-
tlon will be distressing. for We can
hardly recollect a state convention
of any party during the last fifteen
years, which has not been compelled
to sit In judgment upon the Ques-
tions at issue between contesting
delegations from Denver: nor does
our memory supply an instance
where such contests were not caused
by similar influences as obtain at
present.
The platform democrats seem to
have every argument In their favor
at this time, for there is no escap-
ing the fact that the Denver city hall
machine is directly responsible for
the failure OF the regular session to
do It's duty and is now by its dupli
city and treachery. preventing the
party from making good.

THE KERSEY SUIT

The fact that Judge James fined
the train crew of the Union Pacific
train which killed Harden T. Hack
ley at Kersey the other day, is indi-
cative of a certain fact, that kersey
is one town in the county and state
tion even as powerful as the Union
Pacific keep within the laws of the
town.
The case, before it's conclusion
will involve important and compli-
Gated questions OF law. The state
ment of Attorney Thayer that the
speed limit law is a hindrance to
traffic struck the true note of the
view of the Union Pacific and every
other corporation in dealing with
life
Let US destroy life and property !;
but give us speed and money. 1t is
a matter of thousands Of dollars to
the Union Pacific every year to fol-
low the pace they send their trains
through the towns of the county
rather than have them stay within
the law. And If a man be killed now
and then why it IL a matter of hun
dreds to settle the case or fight it
through.
1t is much cheaper to disobey the
law than to obey 1t. for the corpora

GUGGENHE1M AND HIS NAME

There was a poet once SO pre-
sumptuous as to assert that he who
'rears a church to God and not to
fame will never mark the marble
with his name" which may. we sup
pose, be applied to college and uni
versity buildings as well as to
churches.
Not SO long ago Mr.. Guggenheim
presented the University of Colo
RADIO with q building. much needed
indeed for the use of the law stu
dents. The university law school
had been cramped into the Hale
science building. Hence when Mr..
Guggenheim made his offer of a
building students. faculty and alum
nj of the state school were pleased
with the prospect.
the name of the building should be
"Guggenheim building" and the
structure had been about completed
when Senator Simon decided that
his gift would not be properly per-
petuated in the minds of men unless
some means be taken by him to
faunt his name before the public
gaze.
In consequence the name of Sim
on Guggenheim" affronts the eyes
of the coming lawyer who enters the
building now, the name of the man
who stands accused before the world
of having purchased openly his seat
In the United States senate, to the
eternal shame of Colorado and re-
spectacle legislation.
And the bold name OF Simon Gug-
genheim carved high and deep above
the entrance of the new law build
ing is hardly conducive to the birth
of exalted ideals among those stu
dents to whom the atmosphere of
college campus. lawns, trees and
buildings means the awakening of
new dreams no less than the books
and lectures which are offered them.
