ACCEPT, MR.. PRESIDENT, AND
SHOW THEM UP

When literally forced to invite him,
to President Taft to attend the land
convention in Denver. Lack of funds
and lack of interest in statked -
convention, together with a public SEN
timent that demanded fair play, has
caused our governor to send an invl-
tation to the president to come and de
liver an address.
The Chieftain realizes that the invl-
tation was delayed until after the per
sonnel of the gathering had been
packed with men known to be
against all national conservation, yet
IL hopes President Taft will accept the
invitation either in person or through
one of his able representatives. The
convention will go on record against
him, but he need not mind that, for i
is nothing but one of the democratic
mass meetings preceding the party
national convention next year How
ever, if the president would accept the
invitation and would deliver an address
showing Just what the national govern-
ment is doing and intends to do for
the west through its conservation pol
icy he would show up the leaders OF
this democratic pow-wow in their true
light.
Again, while the convention will no
doubt resolve against him, Mr.. Taft
would command the attention of the
thinking people of the west who are
with the national government in Its
conservation policy, and those people
would join h m in such settlement OF
the matter as to be permanent and
lasting. The trouble is and has been
that all the discord has arisen because
of the odor created by men of the cali
bre in charge of this convention in or
race they were running to outdistauce
the federal officers who were investi.

The manner of selecting its delegates

be appointed. We all know how easy
such lists can be secured and also how
easy it is to have them named. Hence
we say the convention is "stacked
and we say the governor waited until
he knew it was stacked before he
invited the president. A few other
names were added to give it an air
of responsibility.
Yet we would not be afraid to see
the president in attendance in this con
vention and in fact it would be highly
interesting to see him expose a few
self-confident politicians who think
they have framed up such a beautiful

Bartlett of Denver, a member of the

gives out the information that Colora

which a comparatively small outlay can
put in first class condition, besides
having the best climate of any of the

1t was all well enough for Jim to
laugh. but he was horribly hurt. He
stood around for few minutes, talk

he slid away and went to bed. He
looked very badly the next morning,
as though he had not slept. and his
clothes quite hung on him. He was
actually thinner. But that is ahead
of the story.
Max came to me while the others
were sitting around drinking night
caps and asked me in low tone If he
could see me in the den: He wanted
to ask me something. Dial overheard.

know what it is. Max. Go ahead and

"Will you coach me?" I asked, for
Mr.. HARRISON was listening.

retorted. And then, because Max
looked angry enough really to pro-

with his back against it.

kind, three-fourths are eczematous.
Millions are born with eczema, and 1t
Is the only thing other millions have
left when they die. Neglect in infancy
and childhood, irritating conditions af-
fecting the skin, ignorance of its real
nature, improper remedies and many
other causes that might be mentioned
have created an eczema which, with
varying severity, has afflicted count
less numbers during their entire lives.
Eczema is skin disease. It is not re-
garded as hereditary, nor contagious.
and is impartially distributed among
the rich and poor, the high and low.
The agonizing itching and burning OF
the skin, causing loss OF sleep. is usual
ly the most distressing symptom and is
caused by the bursting Of little vesicles
filled with an acrid fluid, which burns
as with fire the denuded skin. New
vesicles form, fill and burst, scales
form upon scales. and crusts upon
crusts until Disagreement is added to
torture.
One Of the most successful treat
ments for eczema, whether applied to
the youngest infant or the Oldest per-
son, is hot baths with Cuticura Soap
and gentle anointings Of Cuticura oint-
ment. For more than a generation.
these pure, sweet and gentle emolli-
ents have proved the most efficient
agents in the speedy and permanent
relief Of all forms Of eczemas, rashes.
