ing IOf west.
]. Frank Pickering's scenic trave-
logues drew crowded houses on Thurs
day, Friday and Saturday nights md
Saturday matinee, fact which in it.
self is proof that these highly iii
structive entertainments pleased .he
people. Practically the entire west
was covered, from Denver to San
Francisco, including the Yellowstone
park and also the views of the interior
Of the famous Mormon temple in Salt
Lake City. Mr.. Pickering talks enter
tainingly and shows thorough knowl-
edge of the subjects handled. His
plan, as we understand it, is to cover
a large portion Of the eastern states
during the time between now and the
big Panama-Pacific exposition at San
Francisco in 1915 with a view to not
only enlightening the fasteners as to
the people and resources of the great
west but to show them the best route
and plan of seeing all the fine scenery
of the west when they visit the big
worlds fair. The plan, which GER
tainly is a laudable one, also con-
templates the rendering Of the lee
lures in large convention halls ana
public auditoriums in the bigger cities
where often many thousands of peo-
pie can be reached in an afternoon
or evening; also the distribution of
specially prepared literature along TIE
lines indicated.
Mr.. Pickering has before toured AL
the Mississippi valley states and many
farther east, and, being a practical
newspaper man and clever advertiser,
is in an exceptionally good position
to make great success of such work
We note that he has the endorsement
of General Passenger Agent F. A.
Wadleigh of the D. & r. G. lines, and
the commercial clubs of the various
localities which he can "boost" should
certainly see to it that such clever
work is not hampered for lack of f..
rado recently raised nearly $1,000 in
few days time to aid one lecturer
make an eastern tour to represent the
Estes park region. Pueblo, Colorado
Springs and Canon City have four
lecturers in Iowa, Missouri and Okla
homa boosting that particular region.
But we know of no one who is doing
this particular "stunt" Of enlightenine
people as to the entire Rocky Noun
tain region and the great interest dis
played in the travelogues here in the
midst Of the scenery exhibited should
wake someone up to the possibilities
of good in taking the exhibit east.
Mr.. Pickering is now in Mancos and
expects while there to visit and take
photos of the cliff dwellings in the
Mesa Verde park.

1t appears now that neither Taft
nor Roosevelt will have a majority of
the delegates instructed. About one
third of all the delegates will go with
out instructions. One-fourth of the
whole number will be contested. The
contests will be largely settled by the
national committee. 1t is expected,
however, that a number of contests
will be carried to the floor of the
convention. This will afford an op-
portunity for the minds of great men
to clash. There will be an opportu-
nifty for some man to come forward
and stir the convention as Bryan did
the Democratic convention in 1896.
This will no doubt be the most inter

ONLY ONE BEST
Durango People Give Credit Where
Credit Is Due


Credit Is Due
People Of Durango who suffer with
sick kidneys and bad backs want a
kidney remedy that can be depended
upon. The best is Doan's Kidney
Pills, medicine for the kidneys only,
made from pure roots and herbs, and
the only one that is backed by willing
testimony of Durango people. Here's
a case:
Mrs. ]. A. Strom, 800 Fourth ave-
nue., Durango, Colo, says: 81 could
not rest in any position, owing to
pains in my back and at night there
was steady ache across my loins.
Sharp twinges seized me when l at
tempted to arise from chair and my
back was extremely weak. The kid
ney secretions were also unnatural and
showed that my kidneys were at fault.
Learning of Doan's Kidney Pills, pro-
cured supply at G. E. Tiffany Jr.'s
Drug Store. They relieved the pains
in my back and restored my kidneys
to normal condition. Since then
whenever have felt in need of a
kidney medicine, have taken Doan's
Kidney Pills and they have always
brought benefit. 1t gives me pleasure
to recommend this excellent prepara-
tion."

This is the last day for the contest
in Denver. Tomorrow the citizens of
that city will determine whether the
next mayor will be Bailey, Hunter or
Arnold. The Republicans claim that
as Arnold and Hunter are both Demo-
Gratis the Democratic vote will be di-
yided and that it looks we'll for Bal
ley. The Democratic organization
claims that Hunter who has behind
him the influence of Speer and the
police force, is certain of election.
The Arnold men, however, are most
enthusiastic and claim that he will re-
ceive some six thousand majority over
both Bailey and Hunter. There being
three tickets in the field and the old
parties badly divided it is difficult for
any one to determine who is in the
lead. Tho reports brought to this
section of the state from those who
have been in Denver recently would
indicate that either Bailey or Arnold
will be successful.

The question being discussed now
among the Democratic leaders is what
will Bryan do at the Baltimore con-
vention if Clarke has not the neces-
sary two thirds vote of the first bal
lot. Bryan and Gaynor have always
been warm friends. Bryan is an avow-
ed political enemy of Harmon. 1t
may mean a Wilson Bryan -Gaynor
combination to beat Clark. 1t is not
exactly known what the supporters of
Underwood will do after the first bal
lot, but Underwood himself will be in
clined to favor either Gaynor or Har-
mon. Should his forces go to Gaynor
along with the Wilson forces and be
backed by Bryan, Clark may find it
impossible to secure the nomination.
The Harmon forces will naturally go
TO Gaynor in preference to Clark.
There is liable to,be all kinds of trou-
