Dear Sir: In yesterdays issue of
The Sentinel you lnsinuated that the
advocates of municipal ownership in
this city are mainly hoboes and fail
ures, and Furthermore that the pur-
chase of the light plant by the city
would smash the periphery of the
wheel of commerce and bring dire
disaster in general No such thing
has ever happened anywhere. | know
of no instance where municipal own
ership was detrimental to any city,
or government ownership to any ma
tion. want to ask how many or
the signers of the petition know any
thing as to the cost of operating an
electric plant? | have examined ana
even experienced the rates in diff
ferent western towns, and find, for
example, that Silverton, otherwise
the most expensive place in Coiora-
do, can sell electricity for G cents
per klowatt as against our rate of
l. y cents per kilowatt. Silyerton
has its free lights. no city taxes ana
still accumulates considerable sur
plus per annum.
Does anyone believe that we would
pay the present low rate for water
If a private corporation owned our
water system? Further, what should
we think of a corporation that open
ly declares its refusal to live up to
its written and signed agreement. as
the manifesto of Mr.. Sunderlin con-
veys.
Should we allow this city to be
come a second Denver, ruled and
owned by corporations?
| am paying taxes and no police
or court record contains my name.
| consider this city my permanent
home; therefore. | am interested in
its welfare and firmly believe that
the people should settle this matter
forever by purchasing the electric
light plant.

RASH ALL OVER BABY's BODY
Itched So He Could Not Sleep

ION July ~, 1909, we left Boston for
trip to England and Ireland, taking
baby with us. After being in Ireland
few days a nasty rash came out all
over his body. We took him to doc
tor who gave us medicine for him.
The trouble started in the form of a
rash and was all over baby's body,
head and face, at different times It
iGritated, and he would scratch it with
all his might. The consequence was
1t developed into sores, and we were
afraid it would leave nasty scars en-
his face.
when we reachee England we took
baby to another doctor, who said his
condition was due to change of food
and climate, and gave more medicine.
The rash got no better, and it used to
itch and burn at night so bad that the
child could not sleep. He was COM
pletely covered with it at different
times. It was at this time that my
mother advised us to try Cunicura
Soap and Ointment. After using Cuti-
cltfa Soap and Cuticura Ointment for
about nine months the places disap-
peared. There are not any scars, or

Those who are wondering why the

BROTHER AND SISTER MARR'
WE'RE UNAWARE OF THEIR RE

Marital Bonds of Young Couple With
Two Children Are
AnnuI!ed.

Cincinnati, April ia strange
story, which resulted in the annul

Jr., aged %, and his sister, Heller
Hoffman Ruch, "A, was related in court
The brother and sister were married
October %, 1910, neither at the time
knowing OF the relationship. The re
lationship was discovered few week:
ago and the action for annulment fol
lowed
1t was explained that the mistake
had been possible from the fact tha
the mother had hidden from the chin
dren the fact that they were brothei
and sister, allowing them to believe
that the girl was an adopted child
The husband was given the custod,
of the two children.
The relationship of the Ruchs wa.
disclosed to the young husband ane

probate court few weeks ago in the
presence of their mother, Mrs. Johr
P. Ruch. Neighbors of the Ruch fam
lily informed Judge Lueders that they
believed the couple We're half-brothel
and halfsister. He learned after in
vestigation that the two had grown
up together under the belief that the
girl was only an adopted daughter oil
Mrs. Ruch. The youngest of their
children is only few weeks old.
In securing the marriage license
Ruch gave the young woman's name
as Helen Hoffman.
"This young man came to the pro
bate court in 1910 and secured Ii
cense to marry this young woman.
when it since has been discovered
she is his sister," Judge Lueders said
to the court. THAT was before the
recent law was passed requiring both
applicants for marriage license to
personally appear. The young man
gave his name, age and address prop,

the international organization itself
through her active participation in
the periodical conferences at Geneva.
Carlsruhe, Rome, Vienna and st.
Petersburg.
Miss Barton was 40 years of age
when she first turned her attention to
the great works of humanity which
have made her name famous.
Her experience as school teacher
and the organizer of public school sys-
TENS in New Jersey taught her meth
odical habits and gave her the ex-
perlence in executive work which
made her commanding figure in the
direction of Red Cross affairs.
That organization was established
in America in 1881 and Miss Barton
was it's president from that date until
1904. Before that time she had made
a name for herself by services on
battlefields, beginning in the civil
war and extending through the Fran
co-Prussian war; Congress recognized
her good offices III the first case by an
appropriation of $4,000 to be dis
bursed by her in searching for missing
men after the various great battles of
the war.
Work Becomes Extended.
Miss Bartons work became more
extended with the organization of the
American Red Cross and covered the
new field of catastrophes in time of
peace. She distributed relief to the
sufferers from the Johnstown flood
and went to Russia in 1892 to carry
food to the famine sufferers there.
In the following year she was min
istering to the destitute survivors of
the tidal wave which struck South
Carolina and Florida. In 1896 she was
aiding the Armenian families decimat-
ed by the Turks, and when yellow
fever appeared among the American
troops in Cuba following the battles
around Santiago, it was Clara Barton
who at the request of President Nc
Kinley, organized field hospitals and
personally spent her time on the bat
tie lines. Her last work of national
Importance was in connection with
the great Galveston flood relief in
1900.
She resided for the last seven years
at her home at Glen Echo, Md, on the
banks of the upper Potomac. During
her life time she received many deco
rations from foreign countries in rec
ognition of her services to humanity
and her varied experiences have been
recorded in various forms in her
liberal contributions to literature.
