DANGER IN DELAY.
Kidney Diseases Are Too Dangerous
For Durango People to
Neglect.

The great danger of kidney trou-
bles is that they get firm hold before
the sufferer recognizes them. Health
is gradually undermined. Backache,
headache, nervousness, lameness, sore
mesa lumbago, urinary troubles, drop
sy, and Bright's disease, follow as
the kidneys get worse. Don't neglect
your kidneys. Help the kidneys with
the reliable and safe remedy, Doan's
Kidney Pills, which has cured people
right here in Durango.
T. H. Ballard, 6 Sixth ave-, Duran
go, Colo, says: 81 gladly confirm the
public statement l gave in praise of
Doan's Kidney Pills in January 1907.
I procured this remedy at G. E. Tif-
fany Jr's Drug Store and it entirely
relived me of kidney trouble. have

the Durango section, coming here in
1881. In early days he was a team
ster, and had number of interest
ing and perilous adventures when
driving the stages on different oc-
casions throughout the San Juan.
During the period when the Ancient
Order of Hibernians was so strong in
Durango and vicinity, Justice Shan
non was an active member. When the
Knights Of St. John were organized
he became a member and always took
great deal of interest in the pro-
ceedings Of the order. He was record
ing secretary of the organization at
the time of his death. For number
of terms he had served as Justice of
the Peace.
Two sons, Patrick and Thomas, both
of whom are locomotive engineers,
now in Chihuahua, Mex, and two
daughters, are left to mourn his loss.
One daughter, Mrs. Mary G. Kelley,
arrived last night from her home in
Baker City, Ore, and the other Mrs.
Nellie Gerry, lives in Salt Lake City.
Mrs. Kelley is waiting for reply
from the latter, and no arrangements
will be made for the funeral until
Mrs. Gerry has been heard from.

Outlying Possessions

A report just issued by the treas
ury department notes the rapid in
crease of the commerce of Porto
Rico. The total exports and imports
of the island for the fiscal year 1911
amounted to S7s,OO0,OO0, and nearly
nine-tenths of the business was trans
acted with the United States. Eleven
years ago when Porto Rico was
granted civil government its total
commerce was less than $4,000, 900.
With the United States the island has
increased its trade 400 per cent, and
other countries 58 per cent. Porto
Rico, with its population of 100000
in an area about half the size of New
Jersey, accepted American sover-
eighty peaceably and hopefully, and
has prospered far more than in any
former period. 1t has civil govern
ment of its own, including two legis-
lative chambers with the lower
branch elective by the people. 1t is
advancing in agriculture and mineral
production. Its people realize the
benefits Of honest government whose
purpose is to promote enterprise,
multiply sound opportunities, and
make public burdens as light as is
consistent with efficient administra-
ton.
A similar showing comes from the
other insular possessions, all of which
are tranquil and flourishing, with
commerce growing. The Philippines,
containing forty times the area of
Porto Rico, have but seven times the
population. Their American COM
merce is S33,0OO,0OO, a steady in
crease. With other countries the
trade of the islands is third larger.
In the Philippines the task of this
country has been much more serious
than in any other outlying territory,
but the duty has been performed with
disinterested intelligence and liberal
ity. No longer ago than 1900 the par
amount issue was declared by one of
the leading parties to be imperialism.
1t has been discarded. The pretense
that the government of the United
States was about to engage in pol
icy of selfish colonial exploitation has
been dropped. Hawaii's exhibit is as
favorable as that of the Philippines
and Porto Rico. Cuba is not a pos
session, but its commerce with the
United States has increased since 1900
from $57,00O,O0O to $175,OOO, 900. =

Mcnamara Confession

The confessions of the McNamaras,
so unexpected and sensational, that
they committed the cowardly crimes
of which they were accused do not
prove that organized labor as a whole
sanctions murder and other deeds of
violence. But they unquestionably
leave in very embarrassing posi-
ton those labor champions who have
been rending the air for several
months with outcries against the cap
italistic conspiracy" to railroad" in
nocent men to the gallows.
1t may be taken for granted that
some of these champions were hon.
est in their assertions of the inno-
cence of the accused, even though
they went long ways out of their
course to pre-judge the case and as
sumo that the injured "innocents"
who were kidnapped" were the VIC
Tins of "the interests" and all that
sort of rot. The admission of guilt
could only have been wrung from
the prisoners by the presentation of
proof that the prosecution had the
goods on them" The man who has
confessed that he sent more than a
score of men into eternity without
any provocation whatever beyond
the animosities engendered in labor
war ought to expiate his crime on the
gallows, whether he does SO or not.
Those who have SO loudly exonerated
him in advance of his trial would do
well to learn the lesson of caution
involved in the outcome.
While, as said before, the approv-
al of such crimes by organized labor
as whole is by no means estab-
lished, yet large degree of suspic-
ion must attach to the powerful
organization in which the McNa-
maras were so active. If the horrible
crime to which James B. Mcnamara
has confessed serves to put stop to
the "whecking crews" the slugging
and dynamiting and other features of
labor wars, even this blot on the name
of law and order and civilization it
self will not have been in vain.
After the whole country has rung
SO long with the indignation of the
champions of the dynamiters, after
the state Of California has been put
to so many thousands of dollars Of
expense, and after hhuge sums have
been levied on wage earncrs for the
defense Of the Kidnapped heroes" 1t !

p. C. SHANNON DEAD.

From Mondays Daily.
. At six o'clock last evening, while
his daughter, Mrs. Mary G. Kelley, of
Baker City, Ore, was Fastening to
her fathers bedside, and was still
some miles from town, Patrick C.
Shannon, well known pioneer resi-
dent of this section for the past 80
years breathed his last at Mercy hos
pital.
For some time Justice Shannon had
been feeling miserable but thought
little of his ailments, considering
them due to his advancing years. Last
week he had severe attack of sten-
ach trouble and his friends persuad-
ed him to go to the hospital where
he could have the advantage of good
care and nursing. He entered the hos
pital on Friday, and a number of
complications setting in, he gradual
ly grew worse and passed away Sun
day evening.
Justice Shannon was about 72 years
of age. He was native of Ireland,
coming to the United States when a
lad of about 16 years of age, and To-
eating with his mother in Pittsfield,
Mass. Later he moved to Des Moines,
Ia, and thence to Denver in 1875 or
1876.
