c. ]. WOMAN
At SCENE Of
BIG ERUPTION

Mrs. John Hoon, daughter of Mrs.
Henry Kippe of 326 South Second
street of this city, and who was for
merly resident of Grand Junction,
was within 200 miles. of the terrific
explosion of the volcano Kotmai in
Alaska, when it scattered red hot
lava and ashes for several days last
week. In a letter to her mother,
Mrs. Hoon states that the red-hot
sand from the volcano rained on
them for several days, burning up all
the vegetation. Samples of the sand
were sent to Mrs. Kippe.
Mrs. Hoon lives at Seward, Alas
ka, where her husband is proprietor
of hotel. The explosion of the vol
cano was heard a few seconds after
it occurred by Mrs. Hoon. The en-
tire population was badly frightened
and started to get away when they
were notified by the authorities that
there was no immediate danger

Several lakes on the headwaters of
Cottonwood and Bull creek will be
stocked this year and eventually all
the fishing waters of Plateau valley
will be stocked from the hatchery.
Considerable new work is being
done on the hatchery, and several
men are being employed for week
or more until it is put in good con-
dition. Two new pleasure boats have
been put on the lakes this year, maxi
ing four boats for the use of the
public.
Last year local people contributed
about sl35 toward the expenses of
the clubs man in charge of the
hatchery and this year Molina peo-
Pile have raised about $50. Mr.. Hall
is here to raise enough money from
local sportsmen to support the hatch
cry during this year.
Four hundred thousand trout fry
were taken from the hatchery in
1911. and as many more Will prob
ably be spawned this year. Local an
glers are taking an interest in the
proposition advanced by Mr.. Hall and

The probability of there being
split in the Republican party of Col
orado in the gubernatorial race adds
zest to the fight. In the county pri-
maries this fall the Progressive party
will be nil Owing to the election
laws, the Progressive party will not
be allowed to hold primaries and
names must be put up by petition.
It's going to be pretty fight and
candidates are expected to spring up
like mushrooms within the next two
months. Politicians are anNiously
consulting and decisions are to be
announced soon.
II is understood from reliable au-
thority that the Roosevelt men here
will try to get control of the local
Republican ranks, and, If they fail,
there will be plenty of time for their
own little party to be formed.

What We Are Changing

In entering upon "a change" 1t

perhaps a future value. to under
stand what is the condition to be
changed. That storied epitaph on
a tombstone which reads; 81 was

physic and died." is evidently an
outgrowth of an old Spanish pro-
verb. and one which was old in the
Orient. near the Garden of Eden.
centuries before the Saracens took
1t into Spain In fact. the wisdom
of letting well enough alone must
have been recognized by the cave
men. And no doubt the cave men
often took the risk of changing
comfortable and promising condi-
tions for no other reasons
than that they had grown
monotonous. Pessimists may argue
that at this distance from the cave
and in the noontime of civilization
we are not privileged to cite
the cave man as an example. But
optimism. to which we incline, and
which seeks a precedent for what
was done on the first Tuesday of
this month, will accept the cave
man as such a precedent, the most
illustrious because the most re-
mote.
Promising, then. that our political
action ia not without illustrious
precedent to justify it. let us ex-
anime, in detail, what it was. or. in
other words, what 1t is we are
about to change. We find the fig

ably the most profitable that can
be raised on a large scale. yielding
with proper care a net return of
from $40 to $50 an acre, but also
that it's use in rotation with other
crops largely increases their yields.
Figures collected from the farmers
throughout the country covering
these yields before and after the
use OF the sugar beet show an aver
age increased yield of more than
fifty per cent in crops rotated with
beets. Were the system now in
use in Germany in vogue here, it
has been pointed out, our farmers
would increase the value of the
products from lands now under
cultivation by the sum of $1.5OO.-
900. 900. Another deterrent factor
has been the difference in wages
here and abroad. Figures collect
ed by the Bureau of Statistics of
the Department of Commerce and
Labor show that while the wages
paid to laborers in European beet
fields range from a minimum of 10
cents day to a maximum of AZ
cents a day, as compared to an av-
erage of $3.50 a day in this coun-
try. Equally striking is the differ
ence in wages in the case of fac
tory workers which abroad varies
from the minimum of 46 cents a
day to a maximum of 95 cents a
day as compared to an average in
this country of $2.99 daily. In other
words. 1t is recognized that the i'm
dnstry in its present condition can
not hope to expand or even con-
tinue to exist in its present state
without some continued equaliza-
ton of these differences.
So much for the history of the
sunshine trap-the sugar beet in
this country. The means by which
the sunshine Is made ready to go
into candy and cake and pies seems
almost like a magic operation. Ger
tain 1t Is that in the days of witch
craft anyone who had made bold
enough to say that sunshine could
be eaten would have seen very lit

AMERICAN TRAVELLERS WANT
SERVICE FIRST
New in Long Distance
RailrOadiDg. An Extra Fare
Train Places Comfort
Before Speed

According to officials of the
Santa Fe, the new era of extra
service" railroading. inaugurated
by the Santa Fe deluxe train of
year ago. is now firmly establish
ed. This train of luxury, running
once a week in each direction be-
tween Chicago and Los Angeles.
was so successful last year that
it will be continued during the
coming winter season. the first de-
parture being from Chicago. De-
cember 10, and then every Tuesday
until April.
Although the deluxe train
makes faster time from Lakes to
the Coast by several hours than
the next fastest train on any rail-
road, its primary object is not speed
but service. That Is why the pas
senger pays the extra fare; not to
save a few hours en- route (as in
the case of the eastern lines). but
primarily to get extra service on
a par with that of the finest clubs
and distinctive. individual
and exclusive. Not how fast. but
how good. perhaps best phrases
this new departure in transoonti-
mental travel. And the public seems
to like it, thereby indicating that
Americans are not all speed-mad.

Another sorrowful thing is the
fact that even In the offices that

terms of the present incumbents
do not expire for from one to
three years, and Wilson will not re-
move the incumbents for anything
except good cause. And so the
wait is prolonged and painful to
many of the boys. But let them
cheer up; when they do get in they

Cutting the Pie

Let us pause for moment to
pity the sorrows of that grand
army of the Democracy. who, after
waiting for 20 years for chance
at the pie counter. mmust walt still
other years before the jobs are to
be theirs.
President Taft recently placed
all fourth class postmasters under
civil service. This includes many
of the smaller towns where
the storekeeper Is the postmaster.
The Democratic brethren don't
like this at all and they want
Woodrow Wilson as soon as he gets
