A BIG ENTERPRISE

Plans for paper mill and q
sugar refinery in Denver and a
dehydrating plant at Hudson,
twenty seven miles from Denver,
have been completed by the Den
ver-Hudson Sugar, Paper and De-
hydrating company, which is pre-
pairing to file articles of incorpora-
tion in Denver next week, with a
capital of S2,0OO,OoO.
Paper will be made from the
pulp obtained from the sugar fac
tories and from other products
raised in Colorado.
The new company proposes to
manufacture paper and to make
sugar from beets and cane at the
old paper mills site at Overland.
1t will utilize the big power plant
there, the water system which has
a capacity of 100000 gallons a
day, the buildings, which cost
$2SO,0OO, and the twelve acres of
ground which comprise the prop
erty of the Savery estate at Over

IN CRIMINAL
CHANCERY COURTS

A man has been arrested in con-
nection with the railroad strike in
Illinois and without criminal pro-
cedure sentenced to Imprisonment
rs criminal in the work house at
Peoria. His name is Harry An
drews. The crime charged is in
timidating employees of the rail
road. He was not indicted by a
grand jury, he was not convicted
by petit jury, he was not tried in
any court having jurisdiction of
such crimes. SO far as due pro-
cess of law is concerned, no one
knows whether he committed the
crime or not. Nominally, he is
not convicted of crime. Yet he is
in the work house under sentence
of having committed one; so what's s
the use of splitting hairs? This is
case of government by injunc-
ton" The Judge was Humphrey,
of federal court. He issued a
Chancery order at the request of
railroad lawyers, forbidding the
crime of intimidating railroad en-
ployes. He then issued an order
for the arrest of Andrews, upon an
affidavit that Andrews had intimi-
dated such employees; and there
upon, without a trial for the crime,
without jurisdiction to try anyone
for such crime, without any Of
the safeguards of criminal trial for
the protection of the innocent,
Judge Humphrey convicted" his
man and sentenced him to penal
servitude. This is one case in
thousands of similar Judicial usur-
pations. There is no law for it,
The only color of law is a bare pre-
tense. In the name Of a Chancery
proceeding, judges make criminal
statutes and punish as criminals
whomsoever they see fit to charge
with their violation-punish with
out law and without trial. Shall
this usurpation continue?-J. h.

FACTIONS

Mayor Speer has assumed man
agement of the Denver Times.
He has paid in some cash and
given 10-year notes which when
paid the paper becomes the prop
erty of r. w. Speer.
An effort will now be made by
Mr.. Evans to create factions in the
democratic party that cannot be
harmonized on election day.
Outside of Denver the Speer
and the Patterson factions will be
ignored, especially in the conven.
tions. The bosses and old party
leaders must take back seats this
year. Younger men who live in
the present and look to the future
rather than the past, will be pushed
to the front to settle the great
economic questions that are upper
most in the minds of the people.
The voters are about to line up
for principles and not for party
and the spoils of Office.

THE HITCHCOCK BOMB

Whatever his motive, the fact
remains that Postmaster General
Hitchcock, in declaring for gov
ernment acquisition and operation
of the telegraph lines, has struck a
hugely popular note. Than the
Telegraph monopoly, there is no
more vicious trust in the country,
and each year sees it strengthen
its hold and increase its extortions.
Such a move is in line with the
parcels post, and would make for
the fullest utilization of the post
Office plant that now runs at half
capacity. Mr.. Bryan-who comes
to stand more and more in the light
of an inspired prophet-has long
urged government ownership of
the telegraph lines, and his figures
prove just what Mr. Hitchcock now
maintains that the rates to the
public could be reduced one-third
and still leave the government a
handsome profit.
The parcels post, demanded by
justice and commonsense, has been
kept from us by the evil control
that the express companies have
exercised over the senate. In like
manner the telegraph millionaires
will fight the Hitchcock PROPOSE
ton, but in view of the aroused
state of public feeling, the new un-
derstanding, it will be swept aside.
There can be no doubt that the
Postmaster Generals announce
ment was without President Taft's
sanction or desire. Not only is he
constitutionally opposed to any
thing that savors of radicalism, but
in his fight for reelection he is
depending entirely upon Just such
huge combinations of capital as
the Telegraph trust.
The meaning of it must await
further Developments, but at this
moment it would seem to be that
Hitchcock, the astute, has made
up his mind that standpatism is
doomed, and Taft along with it
and is making an effort to land in
the camp of the Progressives. g

POSTAL TELEGRAPH

Postmaster General Hitchcock,
has given out a statement saying
he would recommend to congress
government ownership and opera
ton of all telegraph lines.
"Should this recommendation be
adopted" Hitchcock said in a
statement of his intentions, II am
convinced it would result in i'm
portant economies and in materially
lower telegraph rates than now are
exacted.
"In approximately 80 countries
of the world-notably in Great
Britain, France, Germany, Austria,
Italy, Spain, Russia and Japan
government controlled telegraphs
now are in profitable operation
John Wannamaker made the
same recommendation twenty
years ago when he was in the

At the annual meeting of the stockholders of the Verde Valley Oil Company held at Camp Verde last week. among the more important matters considered was the selection of new site on which to begin cx- ploration.' and a location about one mile to the south of the original we'll was decided upon.
 This movement is authorized on the grounds of economy, it being proven that new we'll can be drilled at much lesser outlay of money than by dressing up the old we'll and by the removing of the casing therein. Every share of stock is- sued by the company was represent
